Some time ago, a fellow teacher asked me to be the referee(仲裁人)  on the grading of an exam question. He was about to give a student a    1    for his answer to a physics question, while the student said he should receive a perfect    2   . I read the exam question: “Show how it is possible to    3   the height of a tall building with the    4    of a barometer(气压表) .”

The student had answered: “Take the barometer to the top of the building, fasten a    5  

rope to it,   6    the barometer to the street, and then bring it up,   7    the length of the rope. That’s the    8   .”

I pointed out that the student really have a strong case for full credit(学分) ,since he had answered the question   9    and correctly, but the answer did not prove competence(能力)  in physics. I   10    that the student have another try. I gave the student six minutes, with the   11    that his answer should show some    12   of physics. His answer reads:

“Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean    13    the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer,   14    its fall with a stop watch. Then using the formula s=1/2at2,calculate the height of the building.”

I gave the student    15    full credit.

After Harry Jackson  4    his special space suit, a lift took him  5    to the rocket (火箭), which was 65 feet above the ground.

 The count-down started, six, five, four, three, two, one, zero,  6    ,and the rocket immediately left the earth  7    very high speed.

    8    two and a half minutes,  9    was moving at 5,000 miles an hour. When the Asta was 425 miles above the earth, it  10    for 20 minutes. Then Harry Jackson left  11    and swam around in space. He was  12    by a life-line that would help him  13    the spaceship.

 As he moved about in space, he kept  14    photos with his specially-made camera  15    what he did and saw.  16    he used the life-line to pull himself back to the spaceship. Then the Astra  17    to fall back. 48 hours after the flight  18    , Harry Jackson and his spaceship fell down in  19    , where a  20    helicopter (直升飞机) picked him up.

  One winter night in Shanghai, the streets were lit up, with lines of cars running   1  .A taxi driver picked up a passenger at Pudong Avenue, who was going to the Seagull Hotel in Puxi.It wasn’t long   2   the passengers suddenly asked the driver to turn back.

  “But we’ve gone into the tunnel(隧道)and aren’t   3   to turn around in it,” said the driver.

  The passenger sounded   4  , “I changed my trousers before I left my flat, and I   5   to take my wallet with me.” Seeing him so   6  , the taxi driver promised to drive him there for   7  .He kept comforting the passenger all the way.“Take it easy.It’s human   8   to be forgetful sometimes.”

    9   reaching the destination, the driver turned up the price-meter(计价器)and 17 yuan turned into   10  .At the same time, the taxi driver put three 10-yuan   11   into the passenger’s hand for him to return.The passenger sincerely thanked him and left in a   12

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

  Have you ever heard of cryosurgery? Cryosurgery involves freezing tissues to extremely cool temperatures.It is a procedure in which   1   body tissues are destroyed by   2   them to extremely cold temperatures.The temperatures used range from -150℃to absolute zero.The surgical procedure freezes unhealthy tissue, and the freezing destroys the   3  .For external injuries, liquid nitrogen(氮), which has a temperature of -196℃, is applied   4   to the cells.For   5   tumors(肿瘤), liquid nitrogen is circulated   6   an instrument called a cryoprobe(冷冻探针), a low-temperature scalpel or probe cooled by liquid nitrogen.

   How does cryosurgery destroy cells?The ice created by the liquid nitrogen will destroy nearly all cells it   7   in contact with.As ice forms around a cell, the free water inside the cell is   8  .This causes the cell to shrink and the walls or membranes inside the cell to collapse.Poisonous proteins or chemicals within the cell are released.  9  , as the ice around shrunken cells begins to   10  , large amounts of free water rush back inside the cells, causing them to burst.The dead cells are then removed through normal   11   process.

   How well does cryosurgery work? The   12   has proved successful in removing hemorrhoids some tumors.Cryosurgery may be used   13   to remove freckles(for cosmetic reasons)and to treat some skin cancers.It is also used in the treatment of bone cancer to freeze internal bone cavities.Cryosurgery has evolved from the   14   attempts to freeze tissue with a salt-ice mixture in the 1850s to the complicated cryoprobe method used today.Despite its success, side effects from cryosurgery tend to be worse if it is done in men who have already had radiation   15  , and therefore this kind of new surgery is not fit for everyone.
