| Americans love sports — they love to play them, to watch them on television, and to talk about them. But this hobby sometimes has serious results — at least to the players. For example, when people play tennis, sometimes they hurt their elbow (肘部) and in this way they develop "tennis elbow". Also it is easy to hurt a knee in a football game. These injuries (损伤) happen while the player is having fun, but they still hurt. A few months ago, Kathleen Simmons, who loves playing volleyball, hurt her knee in a volleyball game. Her doctor told her that she needed a very difficult operation (手术) or she might not be able to play again. She felt very sad and didn"t know what to do. Then Simmons learned about "video operation". With the help of this new science in medicine, doctors can now repair many injuries and get people back on the playing field and back to their jobs much faster. Simmons found a hospital that was using this new science and went to see the doctor there. The doctors told her the operation could help. For this operation, her doctor didn"t have to open her knee. Instead he put a very small camera lens (镜头) inside her knee. The lens sent back pictures, which appeared on a television screen. As he worked, he could see the inside of her knee on the TV. With the help of the large pictures on the screen, the doctor knew exactly what to do when he was making the repairs. Simmons started walking five days after her operation. "My knee hurt a lot the first few days," she said. "But I felt better very quickly." Now, six months after her operation, Simmons can do everything she did before her injury. "It feels like a new knee," she said. "I can even play volleyball again." 1. Do Americans love sports? _____________________________________________ 2. What sport is Simmons interested in? _____________________________________________ 3. What did the doctor put inside Simmons" knee? _____________________________________________ 4. What problem may people have when they play sports? _____________________________________________ 5. What"s the advantage (优点) of the new science? _____________________________________________ | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Linda and David have traveled by air from London to Sydney, Australia. Linda has promised (答应) her mother that she will ring her to let her know that they have arrived safely. This is something she had done ever since she was a child. David thinks it is not a good idea to ring so far, to spend too much, and to say so little. "If there were an accident." He says, "they"d know soon enough. Bad news travels fast." But Linda has promised that she would ring. "However,"she says, "it doesn"t cost much when you just think that it"s the other side of the world .It"s only six pence per second (每秒六便士)". If you"re on that telephone for less than one minute, I"ll eat my hat, David says, "And one minute"s nearly four pounds (英磅)." "That"s no more than you"d pay for a new hat," Linda answers. She has asked the man at the hotel (旅馆) desk to get her the number. The telephone rings. Linda picks it up. "Hello, Mum. It that you?" She says. "Six pence per second," David reminds (提醒) her. "Hello, love." It is Mrs. Lee, Linda"s mother, speaking from London. "I can hear you very clearly just like you are in the next room. It"s a better line than when you called me from your office. Do you remember? I shouted at that time, and still you couldn"t hear me sometimes." "Yes, Mum." Linda puts in. "I Just wanted to ring to…" "I remember how you rang when you went to Betty"s house to eat, when you were a little girl. And then when you…" Mrs . Lee is a great talker. "Nearly four pounds." says David. "Yes, all right," says Mrs. Lee, "But you will write, won"t you, as you did when you were at work…" Once again, Mrs. Lee talks about the pass, and there is no stopping her. Four pounds fifty, says David. At last , Linda cuts her mother short, promises to write, and rings off. "There ! That wasn"t long, was it?" "Four pounds, ninety pence." David answers. "And you didn"t even say that we"ve arrived." | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
