The first flight of the Space Shuttle Columbia in the spring of 1981 was a revolutionary development in space exploration. Unlike the rockets of the previous twenty years, Columbia has the enormous advantages of being specially designed to return to earth and make further flights. Among a large number of projects scientists are investigating its future use. The most exciting, perhaps, is that the first steps can now be taken towards establishing human colonies in space. The present Space Shuttle can only stay in space for about a week, but it could take people out to build "islands" where they stay for longer periods. By the year 2050 scientists estimate that man will be able to construct permanent settlements.The first "islands" would be energy stations. There would be no hope of establishing colonies in space unless people could obtain energy there, instead of getting it from the earth. However, if the original could convert solar energy into electricity, it would be possible to provide the equivalent of a filling station for cars on earth, allowing the Space Shuttle to refuel and stay in orbit for longer periods of time.If this initial project were successful, much larger solar energy stations would be constructed later with materials brought out by the Shuttle.Eventually, man would be able to construct an "inhabitable planet" in space. According to the talk, what will man probably be able to do by the year 2050()

A. Establish a large number of projects in Space Shuttle Columbia.
Build permanent colonies in space.
Construct many energy stations on the islands in the sea.
D. Build filling stations in space to provide fuel for cars on eart

M: How did you do on the examW: I passed, but I didn’t do so well. The essay question was the worst part for me. How about youM: I did all right on everything except the essay question, too. I wasn’t really prepared to write about the tribes in the rainforests of Brazil. We studied the rainforests for only a few days. I didn’t think it would be on the test.W: Me either.

Do you know how much theexam counts towards our final gradeM: I think it’s 30 percent.W: Thirty percent! Oh no, I’m in deep trouble this time! That means I’ll have to get A’s on everything else to get a decent grade.M: That may not be too hard. We’ve already gone through most of the readings that the class is supposed to cover. After next week it will just be review. But then there is the final paper, of course.W: Yes.

Only three strategies are available for controlling cancer: prevention, screening and treatment. Lung cancer causes more deaths than any other types of cancer. A major cause of the disease is not (21) known; there is no good evidence that screening is much helpful, and treatment (22) in about 90 percent of all cases. At present, therefore, the main strategy must be (23) . This may not always be true, of course, as for some other types of cancer, research (24) the past few decades has produced (or suggested) some importance in prevention, screening or treatment.(25) , however, we consider not what research may one day offer but what today’s knowledge could already deliver that is not being delivered, then the most practicable and cost-effective opportunities for (26) . premature death from cancer, especially lung cancer, probably involve neither screening nor improved (27) , but prevention.This conclusion does not depend on the unrealistic assumption that we can (28) tobacco. It merely assumes that we can reduce cigarette sales appreciably by raising prices or by (29) on the type of education that already appears to have a (30) effect on cigarette assumption by whitecollar workers and that we can substantially reduce the amount of tar (31) per cigarette. The practicability of preventing cancer by such measures applies not only in those countries, (32) , the United States of America, because cigarette smoking has been common for decades, 25 to 30 percent of all cancer deaths now involves lung cancer, but also in those where it has become (33) only recently. In China, lung cancer (34) accounts for only 5 to 10 percent of all cancer deaths. This is because it may take as much as half a century (35) the rise in smoking to increase the incidence to lung cancer. Countries where cigarette smoking is only now becoming widespread can expect enormous increase in lung cancer during the 1990’s or early in the next century, (36) prompt effective action is taken against the habit-indeed, such increase is already plainly evident in parts of the (37) .There are four reasons why the prevention of lung cancer is of such overwhelming importance: First, the disease is extremely common, causing more deaths than any other type of cancer now (38) ; Secondly, it is generally incurable; Thirdly, effective, practicable measures to reduce its incidence are already reliably known; and finally, (39) tobacco consumption will also have a substantial (40) on many other diseases. 35().
