阅读下面短文，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。

　　In 1954 a turning point in medical history, resulting from applied bionics; was the first “open heart” surgery done in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by Dr. W. Lillehei's techniques for the first time allowed the patient to be operated on while blood was supplied to the patient from a donor. Today “open heart” surgery, using more complicated methods and bionic devices, is common in the United States.

　　Important technological advances such as those already mentioned have encouraged scientists to develop the artificial heart. Early in 1983, in its first use by a human patient, a medical team at the University of Utah Medical Center replaced the diseased heart by a Jarvik-7.

　　The world watched amazed as television pictures of Dr. Clark showed him as he improved steadily after the surgery. His continued life demonstrated, that a bionic device could imitate the action and function of a healthy heart. Dr. Clark lived for 112 days.

　　Life-like or bionic machines have existed for several centuries. The development of tools by man's ancestors is a good example of the application of bionics to extend human capabilities. Modern bionic research is especially involved in prosthetics devices that substitute for, or replace lost or diseased body parts such as arms, legs, and eyes.

　　Recent advances in electronics have enabled scientists to make better use of electrical impulses in the control of prosthetic devices. One interesting research project is the development of an artificial eye in which video signals are transformed into fight patterns that are sent into nerve receptors in the patient.

　　The future for applied bionics seems to be promising. Existing bionic devices will become smaller, faster, and more effective. The artificial heart used for Dr. Clark is only one of experimental replacement devices. It is likely to be joined in the future by replacements for other internal systems or organs.

　　Bionic livers, stomachs, and lungs are not impossibilities!

（湖南省长沙市一中2010届高三第九次月考A篇）

After so much discussion — featured by intense media attention and China's repeated warnings — US President Barack Obama finally met the Dalai Lama at the White House on Thursday. With this latest move to test China's limit of tolerance, Obama has hit a home run to complete his months-long season of a game called "antagonizing (敌对的) China". At least we hope so. After all the recent tensions in Sino-US relations, a half-time break is what both sides desperately need. But it is still too early to have a sigh of relief.

Thanks to his vow to "get much tougher" with China, Obama has struck nearly every note to create the cacophony （嘈杂的声音） against a country that he once promised not to contain. From the US$6.4 billion arms sales to Taiwan to issues related to currency rates and Internet freedom, Obama has criticized China in every possible front. So much that no one can say for sure whether China-US relationship is strong enough to survive all the damages done. It is up to Washington to show its sincerity to begin again the work of repairing the damaged relations.

It usually takes some time for US leaders to learn the rules of their China policy.

Bill Clinton had argued that Washington "should not reward China with improved trade status when it has ... failed to make sufficient progress on human rights". George W. Bush had pledged to do "whatever it took" to defend Taiwan. But it did not take them long to come to terms with reality. China, with a quarter of the world's population and a fast growing economy, means a lot to the US and the world. It does both sides absolutely no good if the two countries collide rather than cooperate. It would have been foolish not to understand this at an early date. In a speech Obama made during his visit to Shanghai in November last year, Obama quoted a Chinese proverb "consider the past, and you shall know the future". Hopefully he really knows what he quoted.

56. What is the most appropriate title according to the passage?

A. US should spare no efforts to defeat antagonizing China

B. President Obama finally met the Dalai Lama

C. All the previous US Presidents didn’t have good terms with China

D. US should move to repair China ties after Dalai meeting

57. What does the underlined word “collide” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. work together     B. help each other     C. contradict        D. blame

58. From Paragraph 2 we can see Obama’s attitude towards China is getting tougher. Of all the things he did, which of the following is NOT included?

A. Personal donation to Taiwan                B. Arms sales to Taiwan

C. Issues related to currency rates              D. Internet freedom

59. According to the passage, why did the US leaders come to terms with reality?

A. Because China has the largest population in the world and is the largest market.

B. Because China’s economy develops so fast that it gives US more and more help.

C. Because China’s amazing growth makes US Presidents adjust their policies.

D. Because US Presidents are more clever than leaders in any other countries.

60. What does Obama’s quotation during his visit to Shanghai last year “consider the past, and you shall know the future” mean?

      A. History proves US will respect its competitor in the long run.

      B. It will be some time before US gives in to China in the end.

      C. US Presidents daren’t face the reality and are not willing to either.

      D. The future of US will be disappointing in comparison with China.

Hank Viscardi was born without legs. He had no legs but stumps（残肢） that could be fitted with a kind of special boots. People stared at him with cruel interest. Children laughed at him and called him ‘Ape Man’ because his arms practically dragged on the ground.

    Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices. During all this busy life, he had been moving around on his stumps. But one day the doctor told him even the stumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon have to use a wheel chair. w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m

Hank felt himself got cold all over. However, the doctor said there was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs（假腿）. Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror. For the first time he saw himself as he has always wanted to be--- a full five feet eight inches tall. By this time he was already 26 years old.

    Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. There were times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himself up and went back to the endless marching. He went out on the street. He climbed stairs and learned to dance. He built a boat and learned to sail it.
