17．Nuclear power's danger to health，safety，and even life itself can be summed up in one word：radiation．
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it，partly because it cannot be detected by human senses．It can't be seen or heard，or touched or tasted，even though it may be all around us．There are other things like that．For example，radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them，sense them，without a radio receiver．Similarly，we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector．But unlike common radio waves，nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things．
At very high levels，radiation can kill an animal or human being immediately by killing masses of cells in vital organs．But even the lowest levels can do serious damage．There is no levels of radiation that is completely safe．If the radiation does not hit anything important，the damage may not be serious．This is the case when only a few cells are hit，and if they are killed immediately．Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones．But if the few cells are only damaged，and if they reproduce themselves，you may be in trouble．They can grow into cancer．Sometimes this does not show up for many years．
This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation．Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred．A person can be irradiated（輻射）and feel fine，then die for cancer five，ten，or twenty years later as a result．Or a child can be born weak as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents．
Radiation can hurt us．We must know the truth．
61．What is the main idea of the passage？C
A．How to detect nuclear radiation．
B．How radiation kill a man．
C．The mystery about nuclear radiation．
D．Serious damage caused by nuclear radiation．
62．Which of the following statements is true？A
A．Nuclear radiation can cause cancer to human beings．
B．Nuclear radiation can be safe to human beings if its level is low．
C．Nuclear radiation can be detected by human senses．
D．Nuclear radiation is just like common radio waves．
63．How can nuclear radiation kill an animal？C
A．By damaging its heart．B．By killing a few cells．
C．By killing many cells in important organs．D．By hitting any place in its body．
64．What is not the reason why nuclear radiation has a certain mystery？C
A．The hurt cells can stay in the body many years and then grow into cancer．
B．It can do harm to a person while the victim isn't aware the damage has occurred．
C．Nuclear radiation can kill a person very easily．
D．Radiation can seldom kill a person immediately．
65．If a human being is hit by nuclear radiation，he mayD．
A．die of cancer after many years          B．die immediately
C．have a child who may be born weak D．a(chǎn)ll of the above．

12．The Olympic flame
   The Olympic Flame is a symbol carried over from the ancient Olympics，where a flame burned at the altar（祭壇）of Zeus throughout competition．It was finally reintroduced at the 1924 Amsterdam Games，and again burned in 1932．
   Carl Diem，chairman of the organizing committee for the 1936 Berlin Games，proposedthat the flame be lit in Greece and transported to Berlin via a torch relay．The idea was adopted（采納）and continued at every Olympic Games since 1952．The flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia by the natural rays of the sun reflected off a carved mirror．It is lit at a ceremony by women dressed in robes resembling those worn in ancient times，who then pass it to the first relay runner．
  The Olympic motto
"Citius，altius，fortius"is a Latin phrase meaning"swifter，higher，stronger"，which Baron de Coubertin borrowed from Father Henri Dideon of Paris．Dideon was the headmaster of Arcueil College，and used the phrase to describe the athletic achievements of students at the school．He had previously been at the Albert Le Grand School，where the Latin words were carved in the stone above the main entrance．
The Olympic oath
"In the name of all competitors，I promise that we shall take part in these Olympi c Games，respecting and abiding by the rules that govern them，in the true spirit of sportsmanship，for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams．"
  Written by Baron de Coubertin，the oath is taken by an athlete from the host nation while holding a corner of the Olympic flag．The athletes'oath was first taken by Belgian fencer Victor Boin at the 1920 Antwerp Games．A judge from the host country also speaks the oath，with slightly different wording．
51．The Olympi c flame was first burned atBin modern times．

17．Electric cars are dirty．In fact，not only are they dirty，but they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins．
People in California love to talk about"zero-emissions （排放） vehicles"，but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from．Power plants mostly use fire to make it．Apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells，we get our electricity from generators （發(fā)電機）．Generators are fueled by something----usually coal，oil，but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants．There are a few wind farms and geothermal （地熱） plants as well，but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something．
In other words，those"zero-emissions"cars are likely coal-burning cars．Because the coal is burned somewhere else，it looks clean．It is not true．It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes----"If I can't see it，it's not happening．"Gasoline is an incredibly （極其） efficient way to power a vehicle； a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it．But when you take that gas （or another fuel） and first use it to make electricity，you waste a nice part of that energy，mostly in the form of wasted heat--at the generator，through the transmission lines，etc．
A gallon of gas may drive your car 25miles．But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far---so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones．If our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal，or solar，then an electric car truly would be clean．But for political，technical，and economic reasons，we don't use much of those energy sources．
In addition，electric cars'batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill （垃圾填埋場）．And finally，when cars are the polluters，the pollution is spread across all the roads．When it's a power plant，though，all the junk is in one place．Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated，but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot．
32．Which of the following words can replace"be clueless about"in Paragraph 2？B
A．be familiar with．
B．fail to understand．
C．be curious about．
D．show their interest in．
33．The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car runC．
A．a(chǎn)t least 25miles                    
B．more than 25miles
C．less than 25miles                   
D．a(chǎn)s far as 25miles
34．In the author's opinion，compared with cars using gas，electric cars are moreA．
A．harmful                        
B．expensive
C．efficient                   
D．environmentally-friendly
35．It can be inferred from the passage thatB．
A．electric cars'batteries are no longer poisonous in the landfill
B．electric cars are not clean since we get electricity mainly by burning something
C．zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D．now electric cars are used more than their gasoline-powered cousins．
