         People usually use modern machines to produce things in large numbers. This method lowers the cost of
    their products (产品) and the price of these products in the markets is lower, too. Thus they give us better
    values. At the same time, new technology and science are always at work, improving the quality of products.
    In this way, better quality products at good values are one after the other being brought to the people of all
    income groups.
         As an example of how this works, when facial tissues, pieces of thin soft paper that you use to blow your
    nose, were first put on the market in 1924, they were made in small numbers and sold at 60 cents per box of
    200. People liked these facial tissues immediately and began asking for them when they went into different
    stores.
         Because there was such a market for the product, producers began making tissues in larger and larger
    numbers. Because the producers were making tissues in greater numbers, the costs were lowered, so that the
    cost of tissues went down. At the same time, the quality of facial tissues was improving, because more
    producers went into the business of making tissues, and each producer tried to make his product better than
    his competitors (竞争者). Today, instead of costing 60 cents, a box of 200 facial tissues costs around
    one-third of that price, and they are both softer and stronger.
         When people are free to compete, when they are free to make more things and make them better, we all
    feel much better.
    1. How do the makers cut the cost of their products?
    A. They cut the price of their products in the supermarkets.
    B. They have many different machines in their factories.
    C. They improve the quality of their products.
    D. They produce things in large numbers.
    2. How much does a box of 200 tissues cost today?
    A. 80 cents.
    B. 60 cents.
    C. 40 cents.
    D. 20 cents.
    3. Why does the writer of the passage set facial tissue as an example?
    A. To show how the price of tissues becomes lower.
    B. To show how the quality of tissues becomes higher.
    C. To tell the readers how the tissues are made.
    D. To tell the readers how the tissues are sold.
    4. Which is true according to the passage?
    A. The more products they make, the better quality the products will be.
    B. The lower the price of the products is, the more value we can get.
    C. The more products they sell, the less money they make.
    D. The freer you are, the better you feel.

         Many people have talked about whether or not computing machines can think. Can they or can't they?
         Almost certainly, a machine can do any work in thinking that a person can do-if the correct way for doing
    the thinking work can be told exactly. Besides, many programs have been made to direct machines so that
    they work in very clever ways. Machines have been taught to play chess and to leam from what happens in
    the games so as to make their play better and better. Machines can beat many persons who play chess.
    Machines can translate from one language to another. They can prove statements in geometry (几何) as
    taught in school. Machines can notice printed marks on paper, so that a person is no longer needed to look
    at the marks.
         Computers can be used in many ways, such as business, science, industry, and govemment. Computers
    study oil-field examinations made by airplanes; they keep record of oil sales; they study the working condition
    of the machines; they help in plan- ning and producing oil; and much more. If people cannot tell exactly the
    correct way to do certain work in thinking, it is still a question how much of this work a machine can do.
    Suppose a person is "teaching" the machine and telling the machine "yes" when the machine is right, and "no"
    when the machine is wrong. Then the machine can keep on searching among possible ways for solving
    a problem-until the machine can do as well as the person, and per haps much better.
         But, what is thinking? People can agree about much that is thinking, and much that is not thinking; but they
    can't reach agreement because the word "think" is not a scientific word with an exact meaning. A lot of the
    discussion is wasted breath because the persons are using different meanings of the word "think".
         People, however, have only had experience with machines that appear to think since 1944.
         It would be too early to say that after the next 200 years, machines will not be thinking. And to consider
    that machines can think gives people a big push to give to machines more and more work in thinking.

                                                           Be Careful about Energy Drinks
         Be careful what you drink; something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
         The weather is getting hotter and you'll be getting thirstier playing basketball or riding home from school.
    A cold drink may be just the thing. But be carefu "I what you pour down your throat; something that looks
    cool may not be good for your health.
         There are plenty of so-called energy drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive color and
    cool name.
         But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have high levels of caffeine. These drinks
    are specially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their
    drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
         Caffeine raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the Intemational Olympic Committee has limited their use.
    The amount of caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as high as in a strong cup of coffee or strong tea.
         Research by Australian scientists has found that many teenagers are affected by caffeine. The results of
    their study show that 27 percent of boys aged 8-12 take in more caffeine than their parents. There are hidden
    health problems connected to energy drinks. Just one can of energy drink can make you nervous, have
    difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart attacks.
         "Teenagers should not be encouraged to have drinks with high level caffeine in them," a scientist from
    the Australia Nutrition Foundation said.
