A new British medical instrument is about to change dramatically our ability to recognize disease hidden inside the body It is called the magnetic scanner, and it gives information about the body which current machines, such as the brain scanner and the more recent body scanner, cannot provide And unlike existing machines, the new machine does not use X-ray radiation waves, which make it much safer for patients
Unlike existing scanners, a magnetic scanner can show the side or the back of a suspect part of the body Used on, for example, a lung with suspected damage, it can turn the image of the lung to give a series of different views The image is not simply worked out in the computer’s “imagination”: The magnetic scanner actually examines every side of the lung When examining the softer part of the body with existing scanners, doctors frequently have to use a “contrast medium” to make a muscular organ show up to X-ray waves, the usual “contrast- medium” given to patients before a stomach X-ray scan takes place is harmless, but for some brain scans so that it passes into the brain, this is unpleasant and painful and it can be dangerous The magnetic scanner needs no “contrast medium”
The new machine can also see in greater detail than ever before Growths of all kinds show up clearly on the brain and so the dead patches which are the signs of the disease, multiple sclerosis Until now patients complaining of double vision or an inability to control their muscles from time to time could be suffering from some much more easily cured disease and a brain scanner could not distinguish between these with certainty The doctor can now definitely say whether or not cancer of multiple sclerosis is present Previously, these diseases have been missed and patients have been given false information about their health The technique is still improving with great speed: pictures produced a couple of years ago look very simple compared with those of today
Câu 26: What does the new magnetic scanner machine do? A it looks at a diseased part of the body from all directions B It can look right through a diseased part of the body C It sends waves round the diseased part of the body
D It uses a computer to “imagine” different views of the body Câu 27: What disadvantage existing machines have?
A Patients need an injection before they are used B The contrast recorded are too strong
C It is often necessary to use a contrast medium D The X-ray waves are sometimes painful
Câu 28: In what way is the new machine an improvement A It can cure some diseases much more easily
B It will never give a double view
C The techniques involved can be learned quickly
(3)Câu 29: The machine is useful in identifying the disease multiple sclerosis, because it show…
A dark spots in the eyes B dead areas in the brain C cancer like growths D damage to muscles Câu 30: “Sclerosis” means. _
A a disease that causes an organ or soft part of the body to become hard B a disease that causes indigestion
C tuberculosis D bronchitis

Crows are probably the most frequently met and easily identifiable members of the native fauna of the United States The great number of tales, legends, and myths about these bird indicates that people have been exceptionally interested in them for a long time On the other hand, when it comes to substantive-particularly behavioral – information, crows are less well known than many comparably common species and for that matter, not a few quite uncommon ones: The endangered California condor, to cite one obvious example There are practical reasons for this
Crows are notoriously poor and aggravating subjects for field research Keen observer and quick learners, they are astute about the intention of other creatures, including researchers, and adept at avoiding them, because they are so numerous, active and monochromatic, it is difficult to distinguish one crow from another Bands, radio transmitters, or other identifying devices can be attached to them, but this of course requires catching live crows, who are among the wariest and most untrappable of birds
Technical difficulties aside, crow research is daunting because the ways of these birds are so complex and various As preeminent generalists members of this species ingeniously exploit a great range of habitats and resources, and they can quickly adjust to changes in their circumstances Being so educable, individual birds have markedly different interests and inclinations, strategies and scams For example, one pet crow learned how to let a dog out of its kennel by pulling the pin on the door When the dog escaped, the bird went into the kennel and ate its food
Câu 31: What is the main topic of the passage?
A The ways in which crows differ from other common birds B The myths and legends about crows

Câu 33: In line 6, the author mentions the endangered California condor as an example of a species that is…

C featured in legends D very rare
Câu 34: According to the second paragraph, crows are poor subject for field research for all of the following reasons EXCEPT:

Câu 35: In the second paragraph, the author implies that using radio transmitters would allow a researcher who studies crows to _
A identify individual crows
B follow flocks of crows over long distances C record the times when crows are most active D help crows that become sick or injured
