In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the“moon people”asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it. Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The“Chunnel”， a tunnel(隧道 )connecting England and France, is now plete. But what about underground cities? Japan39。s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G.

The surgeon, known as CyberKnife, is a robot, already skillful at attacking brain tumors(瘤 ). CyberKnife received a new puter software to more efficiently target(對(duì)準(zhǔn) )moving lung tumors. CyberKnife was developed to exactly find tumors and attack them from every angle with radiation, the goal being to limit the attack to cancerous tissue(癌組織 )only. If all goes well, after several treatments the tumor disappears as if it were surgically removed, yet healthy tissues that might be damaged even by the quick hands of a skilled human surgeon are spared. Now, Cihat Ozhasoglu of the University of Pittsburgh has developed Synchrony, an add on program for CyberKnife that allows it to follow the tumor to within a few hundredths of an inch as it moves. As CyberKnife trains its strong X ray beam on the tumor, another weaker X ray source takes pictures of the patient39。s movements and tells CyberKnife when and where to direct the therapeutic beam(治療光束 )． Patients need only one to three 60 to 90 minute periods rather than the 20 to 30 15 minute visits required with regular treatments. Treating the tumor at a higher dose(劑量 )for longer time causes the growth to absorb 10 times more tissue killing radiation than regular treatments. “ We39。 time. The main goal is we39。re hoping to have higher cure rates.” The first year of test treatments has shown positive results, but it is still too early to determine if the technique is totally killing tumors or if there are other long term effects. 51． It39。 52． Which of the following is in charge of the tumor39。s movements”可知由Synchrony 負(fù)責(zé)監(jiān)測(cè)腫瘤的移動(dòng)。因此，如果可能的話，相比傳統(tǒng)的治療方法，利用 Synchrony來治療，可以節(jié)省 (30 15－ 60)247。 54． According to the passage, we can infer that________. A． Synchrony will be widely used in hospitals soon B． the effectiveness of Synchrony is still to be tested C． Synchrony is used just aiming at saving patients39。另外，利用 Synchrony 來治療的真正目的不僅是節(jié)省治療時(shí)間，更是為了提高治療效果。故答案選 C。 Ⅳ .書面表達(dá) (滿分 25分 ) 假設(shè)你是西城市的李華，你的美國(guó)朋友 Mike 將于 6 月底到西城市作短暫停留，住在望湖賓館。要求用所給 的示意圖寫一封信向他提出建議并對(duì)各地加以簡(jiǎn)單地介紹。 2．字?jǐn)?shù) 120 字左右。s time for you to take a boat trip on the lake.
