21、   In the 1966 science-fiction film The Fantastic Voyage, a team of scientists and doctors are shrunk to microscopic size injected into the body of an injured man to save his life. The tiny crew travels through the body's dangerous environment to locate and repair the damaged part of the man's body. Eventually, the group manages to complete their task and the man awakens, fully cured.

Such an idea sounds extraordinary to many, But what if it were possible to cure a disease like a cancer, using tiny particles injected into a person to find the cancer and destroy it without harming anything else in the body? Although it may seem like science fiction, tools like this are now being developed and may become common in the near future—thanks to research currently being done in the field of nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology（纳米技术）is really small. The prefix "nano" refers to a nanometer, which is one-billionth of a meter. A comma on a page of a book or magazine may be more than half a million nanometer. Using this technology, it will be possible to detect cancer at a stage when there are perhaps only a thousand bad cells. Compare this to what happens today: doctors can diagnose cancer only after the dangerous cells have multiplied into millions and developed a tumor. One of the advantages of detecting and treating cancer is that the cells is less likely to be resistant to drug treatment. Right now, most cancer treatments kill not only the dangerous cells but the healthy ones as well. Nanoparticles will allow doctors to attack cancerous tumors without disturbing healthy cells. Thus, it can deliver cancer-killing drugs to the cancer cells and allow doctors to deliver cancer treatment earlier, faster, and more thoroughly.

Unfortunately, there are serious concerns that these same materials could have negative environment and health effects. In recent studies, fish exposed to water containing large amounts of nanoparticles suffered brain damage. And people are at risk as well. But many scientists don't think research into its many uses should be stopped.

Meanwhile, research into the uses of nanotechnology in health and other fields continues. "What's amazing is how quickly this is evolving", says chemist Vicki Colin. "even ten years ago, a lot of these applications would have seemed pretty unrealistic. "Perhaps, the old movie, The Fantastic Voyage, isn't so hard to believe after all.

【1】What is the reading mainly about?

A.A film called The Fantastic Voyage.

B.How to detect different cancers.

C.The dangers and side effects of nanotechnology.

D.The application and development of nanotechnology.

【2】What will happen if human beings are exposed to large amounts of nanoparticles?

A.It will not have any influences.

B.It may prevent many side effects.

C.They will be in danger.

D.Varieties of cancers will be cured.

【3】What's the author's attitude towards nanotechnology?

A.Skeptical. B.Objective.

C.Critical D.Indifferent.

【4】Which of the following statements will Vicki Colin support?

A.Nanotechnology has progressed a lot in the last decade.

B.Ten years ago, nanotechnology were very realistic.

C.Some of these applications are ten years old.

D.In ten years, there have been few realistic applications for nanotechnology.

22、Wisdom teeth removal is common for many people in their late teens and early 20s. But why don’t they come in during childhood with the rest of our permanent teeth?

The answer comes down to child development. There’s not enough room in a child’s jaw for wisdom teeth. 【1】 So there’s more room for wisdom teeth to emerge.

However, many modern human jaws don’t grow long enough for wisdom teeth to come in. Ancient humans ate diets full of hard nuts, uncooked vegetables, and other tough foods. 【2】 But nowadays we have shifted to eating softer foods, meaning humans have shorter jaws than ancient humans do.

There is another reason wisdom teeth grow in later. 【3】 When ancient people would lose their molars (臼齿) from chewing tough food, wisdom teeth — the third set of molars — would take their place. But because most people don’t lose their molars as young children, wisdom teeth wait until adulthood to arrive. 【4】

Nowadays, dentists often remove wisdom teeth because their emergence can cause pain in crowded mouths. Or it can cause problems and tooth damage later on. 【5】 But as a person gets older and their gums (牙龈) become weaker, their wisdom teeth may stick through. In this case, they tend to cause pain and needs removing.

A．Children have small jaws.

B．They’re not needed until then.

C．But as a kid grows, their jaw grows too.

D．Following this diet actually makes the jaw grow longer.

E．Most people have 32 teeth, including four wisdom teeth.

F．In other words, your wisdom teeth are programmed to erupt as a backup.

G．Not all wisdom teeth pop through the gums during the late teens and early 20s.

23、They are the little sweeties who look pretty cute in a photo，or when sleeping——but a lot less appealing at 30，000 ft，crying loudly in the seat fight next to you．

According to a new survey，almost seven in ten Britons dislike flying with babies so much that they would like to see child-free areas introduced on planes．As for long-distance flights where people want to sleep，almost one in four British travelers believes that no-kid-zones should be fixed as required sections．

The survey was conducted by bookings website LateDeals．co．uk，with 1，108 UK consumers questioned as to what they hate most about air travel．

And our dislike of noisy children and babies on planes runs deep．it seems．

  More than a third of us—35 per cent—would pay extra to travel on a childless service．

  Long-distance passengers would be prepared to pay an additional ￡63 to the cost of a return ticket if it meant adults only on board．And on short-distance flights，an extra ￡28 on the price of a return fare would be considered good value if it guaranteed an absence of angry babies in the middle of the economy-class aisle(走道)．

However，screaming babies are not the only source of annoyance for British travellers．In fact，according to the research on the most annoying types of airline passengers，a crying baby ranks as only the fourth．Over half of those surveyed—58 percent—selected ‘drunk travellers’ as their pet peeves．People with‘bad personal hygiene(卫生)’and travellers who kick the back of the seat in front were also near the top of the list，causing anger to 48 and 47 per cent of us respectively(分别地)．

Crying babies came in at fourth on the list，a pet peeve for 43 per cent of those surveyed．
