17．Our friendships are more important than we can ever imagine．Your smiling face can bring life to a friend that's feeling down．So never forget that you are an important part of someone's life．Someone needs you today．Here is such a story．
Hospital nurses thought that the 73-year-old James Wathen had reached the end of his road．He stopped eating，he could hardly speak，and he was very weak．But those all changed one day when he told a nurse that he missed his dog．James hadn't seen his one-eyed dog named Bubba after he was sent to the hospital weeks before．
So a wonderful team of nurses got together to find James companion，Bubba．They all held on the hope that this reunion（团聚）would make their patient come alive again．
They successfully found Bubba，but ever since Bubba was separated from James，he also became sick．The dog didn't know where James was，and believe it or not，they both stopped eating at about the same time．The team of nurses worked hard and planned a very special visit for James that weekend．
In their 30-minute visit，Bubba's eyes got real bright and he was like a different dog．James also became very bright，and he was a different man，too．"He has done a complete turnaround．He is speaking，he is sitting up，and he is eating．He isn't like the same guy，"a nurse said．"And the dog is eating and doing better now，too．"
From the story we can see that friendships are really more important than we can ever imagine，even between human beings and animals．

26．What can we learn from the story？D
A．Nothing is more important than friendship．
B．Everyone is special in his own way．

18．It is easy to lose patience with science today．The questions are pressing：How dangerous is air pollution？What about low-level radiation？When will that horrible earthquake strike California？And why can't we predict weather better？But the evidence is often described as"uncertain"，forcing scientists to base their points of view almost as much on intuition（直觉）as on science．
When historians and philosophers of science listen to these questions，some conclude that science may not be able to solve all these problems any time soon． The unknowns can grow into riddles that are impossible to solve． Because of the unstable and changing state of the earth's atmosphere，for example，scientists have struggled for centuries to predict the weather with precision（精确） but failed．
The case is different for scientists of astronomy． For example，they think that the gravitational force of a nearby space vehicle，though tiny，is able to change the path of a much larger planet if the vehicle spends enough time close to it． With the aid of Newton's laws of gravitational attraction，ground controllers can predict the path of a planetary probe （探测仪）-or satellite-with incredible accuracy． They do this by calculating the gravitational force from each of the passing planets until the probe speeds beyond the edge of the solar system．A much more difficult task is to calculate what happens when two or three times of such force pull on the probe at the same time． Such procedures can，of course，be very difficult，but for experiments，they are effective．
This range of questions-from simple problems to those impossibly complex-has resulted in nicknames for various fields of study："soft"sciences and"hard"sciences．"Soft"sciences admit a great degree of uncertainty． Academicians tend to judge fields such as sociology，psychology，and political science as"soft"because they are assumed to be understandable，of unnecessary mathematical accuracy，and concerned with everyday affairs such as interpersonal relationships． However，"hard"sciences，such as astronomy and chemistry，are said to offer precise answers． Precise definitions for"hard"sciences vary，but the characteristics of"hard"sciences include：producing testable predictions； performing controlled experiments； relying on quantifiable data and mathematical models； a high degree of accuracy and objectivity； and generally applying a pure form of the scientific method．

67．We can learn from the passage thatD．
A．a large planet is able to change the size of a tiny planet
B．ground controllers can affect the gravitational force of planets
C．calculating the probe speeds beyond the solar system is possible
D．predicting the weather is more difficult than predicting the path of a satellite
68．According to the author，"soft"sciencesA．
A．allow for certain inaccuracy
B．focus on personal relationships
C．are based on controlled experiments
D．are rooted in data and mathematical models
69． What might be the best title for the passage？C
A． Science，a Long History？
C． Science，Accurate or Not？
B． Science and Its Functions
D． Science and Its Application
70． What is the author's attitude towards science in this passage？A
A． Objective． B． Sceptical． C． Disapproval． D． Optimistic．
