eyes are. people who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. everything else seems blurry. many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted. people who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. they can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arms length. if they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too. other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. they have what is called astigmatism (散光). this, too, can be corrected by glasses. some peoples eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). long ago these people often became blind. now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them. having two good eyes is important for judging distances. each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. to prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. you will find the objects relation to the background and other things around it has changed. the difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. people who have only one eye cannot judge distances as people with two eyes.60. we should take good care of our eyes_. . a. only when we can see well b. only when we cannot see perfectly c. even if we can see well d. only when we realize how important our eyes are61.when things far away seem indistinct(模糊不清) , one is probably_. . a. near-sighted b. far-sighted c. astigmatic d. suffering from cataracts62. the underlined word blurry in the second paragraph probably means_. a. obvious b. possible c. clear d. unclear63. having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for_ a. seeing at night b. seeing objects far awayc. looking over a wide aread. judging distancesclast year, on the night before the first day of the spring festival, hugo pang was sitting in his huge flat on hong kong island. it was late in the evening, and hugo was sipping a glass of his favorite french brandy, and listening to music on his huge, expensive music center. pang lived alone, apart from the six maid who cooked and cleaned for him, and the chauffeur（私家司机） who drove his rolls-royce。suddenly, the room seemed to begin spinning around him. then there was a flash of light and a puff of smoke, and before him pang saw an old man dressed in traditional chinese clothes. pang looked at his brandy glass, and looked again at the old man. he was so frightened he couldnt speak.“come with me,” said the old man, “im going to show you something.” he took pangs hand, and immediately the room disappeared, and pang was standing in a field outside a village in guangdong province. the houses were small and the village was poor, but in front of him pang saw a little crowd of children were playing. it was spring festival, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard from inside the village, while smoke rose over the roofs of the houses. then, among the children playing, pang recognized himself. “we were poor then,” he said, “but we were happier. we had to work hard to get everything we had.” 64. the first paragraph tells us that hugo pang was_a. fat, rich and lazyb. busy and tired c. rich but lonelyd. very happy65. when the old man first appeared, pang looked at his brandy glass

speeds of just over 110kph for short period of time. however, many people know little else about this wonderful animal. the word cheetah probably comes from a hindi word spotted animal. it is very similar to other cats but also has some obvious differences. its body is much leaner than most cats and it has much longer legs.people sometimes make a cheetah a leopard(美洲豹)because they both have spots, but in fact they are very different. a leopard is far heavier and more powerful, but also much slower. the cheetahs spots cover most of its body except for its stomach and throat. the cheetahs tail has spots and these become rings at the end of the tail.an adult cheetah weighs between 35-65 kilograms and is about 80 centimeters high at the shoulder. the cheetahs head is quite small and the eyes are quite high up. a black line runs from each eye down to its mouth and makes it look a little sad. it has high shoulders that help it to walk so gracefully.cheetahs are very fast but they are not very strong. they are not good fighters and will run away rather than fight another animal to protect their food. if they make a kill, it is sometimes taken away from them by stronger animals such as lions and leopard. these animals will kill their young if they get the chance. the cheetah is not a threat to humans at all. it will not attack humans and prefers to stay away from occupied areas.68. many people know that the cheetah_a. is a fast runnerb. runs faster than any other animal on landc. runs as fast as it cand. is very fast for periods of time69. the cheetah _a. has spots all
