　四、阅读理解(共15小题;每题3分，共45分。)阅读下列短文，然后根据短文的内容从每小题的四个选择项中选出最佳的一项。

One of the greatest killers in the Western world is heart disease. The death rate (率) from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years. Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by not smoking, by changing their diets,and by paying more attention to reducing stress( 压力)in their work.

However, Western health-care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease. There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease. Instead of supporting such programs, however,the U. S. health-care system is spend-ing large sums of money on the surgical(外科的) treatment of the disease after it develops. This em-phasis(强调) on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operation that were considered impossible or too risky( 有风险的 )a few years ago are now performed every day in U. S. hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery.

Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people, some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages.

First, it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention. Second, it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise. After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modem heart surgery, they must try to recover the money they have spent. To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment. The third disad-vantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery--even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary--because the equipment and expert skills are there. A government official recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low. In one type of heart surgery, for example, only 15 percent of patients improved their conditions after the surgery. However,more than 100,000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year.

第36题单选 What effect has modem technology had on medicine?

A.It has reduced the costs of medical treatment.

B.It has helped save the lives of most patients.

C.It has encouraged doctors to do more heart surgeries.

D.It have helped educate people about the prevention of heart disease.

第37题单选 "To do this" (in Paragraph 3)means __________.

A.to help patients recover

B.to increase the number of heart surgeries

C.to get back the money spent on the equipment

D.to buy new equipment for the treatment of heart disease

第38题单选 The author would agree that __________.

A.more money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease

B.heart surgery has helped most patients improve their conditions

C.modem technology has made heart surgery more risky than before

D.the public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease

第39题单选 What would be the best title for the passage?

A.The Greatest Killer in the West

B.Heart Disease:Treat or Prevent

C.Modern Technology and Heart Surgery

D.Heart Surgery:Advantages and Disadvantages

The keyboard of a typewriter refers to the set of keys in it. Most typewriters have "qwerty" key-boards. The name crones from the first six letters on the board´s second line. The "qwerty" board was set up by C. L. Sholes,who was the first man to make a really good typewriter.

Some letters,such as S and T, are used together a great deal in English. Sholes placed such pairs of letter far apart on his keyboard. This made it harder for typists to learn the keyboard.

Copernicus was born in Torun, Poland, on February 19,1473. Little is known about his early life except that his father died when he was 10. An uncle adopted (收养) him, his two sisters, and his brother. The uncle saw to it that the two boys received a good education. Copernicus went to the Uni-versity of Cracow. There he studied such subjects as Latin, mathematics, and astronomy. It was proba-bly at that time that he changed his Polish name, Niklas Koppernigk, to the Latin form of Nieolaus Copernicus. In 1496 Copernicus went to Italy,where he spent the next 10 years studying at various universities.

In Copernieus´ time people still believed that all things--the sun, the stars, and the planets--moved around the earth. It was an old belief that few men had ever questioned. Aristotle had based his theory of astronomy on this belief. Because the Church had long been the center of learning, the theory was also linked to religious( 宗教的)beliefs.

In 1506 Copernicus returned to his homeland. A few years later he began to work for the Church. All those years Copernicus carried on his work in astronomy. He had just the most basic equipment and, like other scientists of his day, made observations with only his eyes. Still, using mathe-matics and logic (逻辑), Copernicus worked out a different theory ,which held that the planets went around the sun.

Copernicus did not announce his ideas. He did not want to make trouble. But he could not hide the scientific truth. So he talked about his theory with his friends, who strongly advised him to have his work published. His great book, On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies, appeared at the very end of his life. Copernicus saw the first copy on the day he died,May 24,1543.

第44题单选 Which of the following is TRUE about Copernicus?

A.He had two brothers and a sister.

B.He used to be called Niklas Koppernigk.

C.He lost his father soon after he was born.

D.He spent 10 years at the University of Cracow.

第45题单选 From the passage we can see that astronomy is __________.

A.the life experience of great men

B.the movement of the stars and the planets

C.the scientific study of natural objects in space

D.the theories developed by scientists of old times

第46题单选 Copernicus developed his theory __________.

A.using various telescopes

B.based on Aristotle's beliefs

C.through observations and reasoning

D.under the encouragement of his friends

第47题单选 The writer of the passage wants us to know that __________.

A.Copernicus did not tell about his discovery until the day of his death

B.for many years Copernicus dared to do nothing openly against the Church

C.pushed by his friends Copernicus decided to write a book in May 1543

D.shortly before he got back to Poland Copernicus started to work for the Church
