【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】B

【解析】本文是说明文题材。在文中作者详细介绍了地铁站的一些信息。比如每位成年人持票可以携带两名五岁以下儿童乘坐地铁；Farecard的购买和使用情况；车票的价格；此处，作者还介绍了一些服务部门的电话号码以方便乘客的需要。

【1】考查细节理解。根据Metrorall (地铁)部分第二段内容“there are no change machines in the stations and farecard machines only provide up to $5 in change.”在车站没有零钱机自动售卡机只能提供5美元的零钱。可知自动售卡机只能最多找5美元的零钱，故答案选D。易错选项为A，文中的 Use it after 9:30 a,m. until closing on weekdays是使用farecard的时间，而不是farecard machines售票的时间。故选D。

【2】.考查细节理解。根据Hours of service的介绍部分“ Close midnight Sun-Thurs.；3a.m. ”Sat-Sun可知在周末停运时间是凌晨3点，故答案选B。

【3】考查细节理解。根据第三部分对Metrobus的介绍“When paying with exact charge , the fare is $1.35.When paying with a SmarTripcard , the fare is 1.25.”可知如果使用SmarTripcard的话，乘客可以节省0.1美元， 故答案选B。

【题目】How can you find out what is going on inside a person’s body without opening the patient s body up? Regular X-rays can show a lot. CAT scans can show even more. They can give a complete view of body organs.

What is a CAT scan? CAT stands for a kind of machine. It is a special X-ray machine that gets a 360-degree picture of a small area of a patient’s body.

Doctors use X-rays to study and determine diseases and injuries within the body. X-rays can find a foreign object inside the body or take pictures of some inside organs to be X-rayed.

A CAT scanner，however，uses a group of X-rays to give a cross-sectional (横截面) view of a specific part of the body. A fine group of X-rays is scanned across the body and around the patient from many different directions. A computer studies the information from each direction and produces a clear cross-sectional picture on a screen. This picture is then photo-graphed for later use. Several cross sections, taken one after another，can give clear “photos” of the entire body or of any body organs. The latest CAT scanners can even give clear pictures of active，moving organs，just as a fast-action camera can “stop the action”，giving clear pictures of what appears unclear to the eye. And because of the 360-degree pictures, CAT scans show clear and complete views of organs in a manner that was once only shown during operation or examination of a dead patient.

Frequent appearance before X-rays can cause skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body. Yet CAT scans actually don’t cause the patient to more radiation than regular X-rays do. CAT scans can also be done without getting something harmful into the patient, so they are less risky than regular X-rays.

CAT scans provide exact, detailed information. They can quickly find such a thing as bleeding inside the brain. They are helping to save lives.

【1】The underlined words “a foreign object” in Paragraph 3 most probably refer to .

A. a badly injured part inside the body

B. a new thing that is unknown to the doctor

C. a strange cell that has grown in the body

D. a thing that gets inside the body by chance

【2】What is the special use of the latest CAT scanners?

A. It can take pictures of inside organs.

B. It provides clear photos of moving organs.

C. It won’t cause serious skin bums, cancer or other damage to the body.

D. It helps to find out illness inside a person’s body without opening it up.

【3】What can we infer from this text?

A. Patients in front of CAT may suffer a bit of radiation,

B. Doctors need no opening-up of the body with CAT scanners.

C. CAT scanners are more expensive than regular X-ray machines.

D. CAT scanners can take photos of either the whole body or a part of it.

【4】What can be the best title of this text?

A. The newest medical invention

B. A special X-ray machine to save lives

C. How to avoid the damage from X-rays

D. Advantages and disadvantages of CAT scanners

Whether you compare yourself to a towering tree or a blade of grass, a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature. 【4】 If you earnestly admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation.

【5】In time of anger, do yourself a favor by releasing it in a quiet place so that you won't be hurt by its flames; in time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a bad mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep.
