French doctors and American scientists have reported doing an operation in which the doctor was outside the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation.

Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France.

A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her stomach area. Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman’s gallbladder(膽囊)away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later.

Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor’s order to a robot to move the tools quickly.

Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For example, the robot can make much smaller movements than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor’s hand cannot.

Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to travel to the city where doctors work.

A. a special kind of robot invented by doctors

C. an operation done with the help of a robot

2. We use the robot in the operation because _____.

A. it can send messages at a high speed

B. even a top doctor can’t do the operation himself

C. it can make the operation safer and better

D. operations can be done without any doctors

3.If we want to use the robot in the operation, we must solve the problem of _____.

A. top doctors B. smaller movements

C. doctor training D. high-speed telecommunications

4.If the smaller movement can’t be done by doctors in the operation, we may use _______ to solve it.

A. more tools B. a robot machine

C. a video camera D. telecommunications

5.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Robotic operation is good for doctor training.

My favourite great book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St. Petersburg, Missouri.He’s a lively and clever young boy,and he finds himself in many exciting adventures(冒險).He runs away with his two friends,Huck Finn and Joe,to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave.a(chǎn)nd finally,they find a box of gold.

My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead.He decides to go to his own funeral.He hides and watches for a time, and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they’re also pleased to see him alive.

Tom is the hero of the story,but there are other important characters.Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him.Becky is pretty with fair hair,Joe is Tom’s best friend.a(chǎn)nd Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.

The theme of the story is about children growing up.It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom,social rules and how people are punished(懲罰)for bad behaviour.

Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876,but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today.And although it’s only a story. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century,so it sounds very real. Today it’s thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature. Go on--- read it! I know you’ll enjoy it,too.

1.Who is the bad man in the story?

A. Huck Finn. B. Injun Joe.

C. Becky. D. Polly.

2.How did people feel when Tom appeared at his own funeral ?

A. They were surprised and pleased.

B. They were surprised and sad

C. They were worried and excited.

D. They were frightened and happy.

A. freedom and social rules

B. children’s bad behaviour

C. the growth of young children
