25、MBUS, Ohio The heart operation taking place in the pale-green operating room at the Ohio State University Medical Center was unusual. The patient, a 62-year-old man, was made to sleep, tied with blue drapes（消毒帷帘）and lying face up on a narrow table. But no one was touching him.Instead, the operation
26、was being performed by a robot, whose three metal arms went through pencil-sized holes in the mans chest. At the ends of the robots arms were tiny metal fingers, with turning wrists, which held a tiny instrument, a light and a camera. The robots arms and fingers were controlled by Dr. Randall K. Wol
27、f, sitting at a computer in a corner of the operating room about 20 feet away.This sort of operation, heart surgeons say, is the start of what may be the biggest change in their profession since heart bypass surgery(心脏搭桥手术) began nearly 30 years ago. “The reason we make cuts is that we have big hand
28、s,” said Dr. Wolf , the director of the surgery at Ohio State. The robots dainty fingers, no longer than a nail on the small finger, at the end of the long sticks could work better.Eventually, surgeons believe, most heart surgery will be done by robots whose arms are put in through pencil-sized hole
29、s punched in patients chests. Instead of directly staring into a patients body, surgeons will view magnified images of the operation on computer screens. In theory, the doctor would not have to be in the same room, or even the same country, as the patient.28. In this passage, the underlined word “da
30、inty” means _.A. small B. weak C. fat D. quick29. According to the passage, the reason that most operations require large cuts is that _.A. patients have large organsB. surgeons have large handsC. large cuts take less timeD. large cuts cost less money 30.

Many hospitals will eventually offer robot surgery to patientsDSuper-storm Sandy slammed into(猛烈撞击) the eastern United States three years ago. The wind-dri
33、ven water caused a lot of flooding, especially in the regions subway system. Now two teens have invented a device that could help prevent future subway floods.In New York City alone, Super-storm Sandy caused an estimated $ 19 billion in damage. Much of the flood-waters entered the subway system thro
34、ugh its ventilation grates (通风栅). Those metal grills usually lie at ground level. When the system is shut down ahead of a flood, engineers try to cover those grates with plywood (胶合板) and sandbags. But the flooding often washes away those measures, which allows water to flow into the tunnels. Raisin
35、g those grates even a tiny bit above ground level would cost a lot of money. Other ideas have included building tall chimneys around the holes. That would raise the grates and cost a lot of money, too.Kyle and Raymond came up with a different, less expensive idea. They designed a metal grate with a
36、built-in, adjustable cover. When trains are running, one part of the grate slides open to bring in fresh air. But when the system is shut down, that part can be slid shut to completely block the grate. Their grate is the same size as the grates used now. So, it would be simple, they say, to lift out
37、 the old grate and drop in a replacement. Their design includes tamper-proof(干预防护)features, which can prevent from operation mistakes. They make sure that people dont intentionally shut off air flow during normal conditions. For people with the proper key, it would only take a minute or two to close
38、 the grate ahead of a flood.32. Whats the second paragraph mainly about?A. The steps to operate grates.B. The measures to prevent flood.C. The function of plywood and sandbags.D.

A guidebook of making grates.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）“Why is life worth living?” If you ask this question, you will get different answers. 36 But we have put together a few reasons from different pe
