A
It was more than 70 years ago that television sets first went on sale in the United States, and perhaps it was just as long ago that a careful mother, noticing a son or daughter sitting in front of that exciting new invention, let out the words that generations of children would grow up hearing：“Don't sit so close; you'll ruin your eyesight!”
Now, scientists can say with certainty that the age- old warning is outdated.
Before the 1950's, television sets gave off levels of radiation that after repeated and extended exposure could have heightened the danger of eye problems in some people, said Dr. Norman Saffra, the chairman of ophthalmology （眼科学） at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn.
But modem televisions are built with proper protection, so radiation is no longer a problem ."It's not an old wives' tale~it's an old technology tale," Dr. Saffra said. "Based on the world our grandmothers lived and grew up in, it was a right suggestion."
While concentrating on a screen for hours continuously may not cause blindness, it can lead to eyestrain （眼睛疲劳）. Keeping the room fairly well lighted while the television is on and peeling your eyes from the screen for an occasional break can prevent this.
Parents should also be watchful for the child who keeps moving closer to the screen. Not because of radiation, of course, but because the child may need glasses.
In a word, watching television, even at a distance that might make a parent worried, will not damage your eyes.
41. It can be concluded from the passage that
A. women are always ready to get worried without good reason
B. television sets have never caused any eye trouble in fact
C. mothers need not worry about their children in front of TVs
D. present televisions do not give off any radiation as before
42. Before the 1950s,
A. TV radiation caused damage to every viewer's eyesight
B. people knew only a little about radiation from TV sets
C. children were not allowed to sit in front of TV sets
D. it was reasonable to warn children not to sit close to TVs
43. It is suggested that to prevent some possible side-effect of watching TV
A. a light be on when you watch TV in dark
B. a new TV set with a bigger screen be used
C. parents sit with their children all the time
D. children wear a proper pair of glasses
44.The title of the passage should be
A. Sitting too Close to the TV is Bad for Your Eyes
B. Sitting Close to the TV Is Never Bad for Your Eyes
C. Sitting Before the TV Too Long Is Bad for Your Eyes
D. Sitting Too Far Away from the TV Is Bad for Your Eyes

There are three branches of medicine. One is called "doctor medicine," or "scientific
medicine." Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses, look for logical patterns, and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century B. C. Although nowadays it is successful, in
the ancient world this approach probably did not cure many patients.
A second kind of medicine is called "natural cures,' or "folk medicine,' in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs. These folk healers also use observation and logic, but they are not so aware of it. They tW4fthings until they find something that seems to work, and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine.
The third kind is called “health spas,” or "faith healing." Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed.
Other times, a magician （魔术师） may make you a magic charm, or say a spell, to cure
you. Some religious groups organize special healing shrines （神殿） for the sick.. In these places
people rest, get plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in
various ways. They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or
you have been working too hard, going to these places may be just the right thing to make you
feel better.

Within fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes for the recycling of waste.
The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything that goes into the dumps （垃圾场） would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would provide energy if nothing else. The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rubber as well.
Another new project is being set up to discover the b
