阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

You can't see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes．Some of the things you see give off light of their own．The sun，me stars，lighted lamp are the examples that can be seen by their own light．Such things are luminous．But most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own．They are simply reflecting（反射）light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies．The moon，for example，doesn't give off any light of its own．It is not luminous．You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of the sunlight reflects in our direction．So moonlight is only second-hand sunlight．

When you look at a book，it sends some of the light which falls on it to your eyes，and you see the book．If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light from the book to reflect，then you couldn’t see the book even with your eyes wide open．Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you，re reading to your eyes is as short as if there were no time at all．Light reaches us from the moon，which is about 380,000 kilometers away，in only a little more than a second．

41．You can see the book because，__________．

A．can't be seen                                             B．can be seen

43．__________ has light of their own．

A．The moon and the sun                              B．The earth and the stars

C．The sun and the stars                                 D．The moon and the earth

44．Light travels about__________ kilometers per second．

A．380，000            B．100，000            C．400，000            D．190，000

45．Which of the following is TRUE?

A．All me things you can see give off light．

B．Light from the book is much faster than that from the moon．

C．The moment you open your eyes，the light from the book travels to your eyes．

B

③Biotechnology（生物工艺学）will make food better and healthier．Plains that are not affected by insects or illnesses will be developed．The taste of fruits and vegetables will be better and food will be kept longer．

④New technology will be used to make TVs only 5cm thick．They will have pictures that are as clear as photos．
