People are so used to electric lights， radios， televisions， and telephones that it is hard to imagine what life would be like wi

27、thout them. When there is a power failure， people move about in dim candlelight， cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to guide them， and food goes bad in silent refrigerators. Yet people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago.

28、Nature has in fact been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are discovering more and more that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity. All living cells send out tiny pulses（脈沖） of electricity. As the heart beats， it sen

29、ds out pulses that can be measured and recorded on the surface of the body. When the pulses are recorded， they form an electrocardiogram（心電圖）， which a doctor can study to determine how well the heart is working. The brain， too， sends out brain waves of electricity， which can be recorded in an electr

30、oencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most living cells are very smalloften so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals， certain muscle cells have become so specialized as electrical generators（發(fā)電機(jī)） that they do not work as muscle cells at all. Whe

31、n large numbers of these cells are linked together， the effect can be astonishing. The electric eel（電鰻） is an amazing living storage battery. It can send a jolt of as much as eight hundred volts of electricity through the water in which it lives. （An electric house current is only one hundred twenty

32、 volts.） As many as four- fifths of all the cells in the electric eels body are specialized for generating electricity， and the strength of the shock it can deliver equals the length of its body.59.What is the main idea of this passage?

34、C. people must rely on candlelight D. elevators do not function 61.Why does the author mention electric eels? A. To warn the reader to stay away from them. B. To compare their voltage to that used in houses. C. To give an example of a living electrical generator. D. To describe a new source of elect

35、rical power.62.How many volts of electricity can an electric eel send out? A. 1，000. B. 800. C. 200. D. 120. 63.It can be inferred from the passage that the longer an eel is， the _. A. more beneficial it will be to science B. more powerful its electrical charge will be C. easier it will be to find D

36、. tougher it will be to eat C The opera house in Santa Fe， New Mexico， is one of the most beautiful in the United States. It is small and open， with one roof over the stage where singers perform and another roof over part of the audience. This opera house in the mountains is one of the best in the c

37、ountry. It may seem surprising because performances are only given during seven weeks in the summer， and because Santa Fe is a very small city. One reason why the Santa Fe Opera is so good is that it attracts many excellent young singers. They all hope to sing in famous opera houses like Metropolita

38、n in New York someday， and they work hard to become well-known during the summer. The musicians and directors are experts who come from the best orchestras （管弦樂隊） and operas in the country during their vacations. They enjoy working there because they like to live in Santa Fe， which is near both the

39、mountains and the desert. It is very beautiful there in the summer. The state government of New Mexico advertises the Santa Fe Opera in newspapers all over the country， and a great many tourists come to New Mexico because of the opera. Still， most of the audience do come to Santa Fe and other nearby

40、 cities， and all the seats in the theater are sold out for every show. There is only one thing that some people do not like about the Santa Fe Opera， and that is the cold weather. Because the theater is open， performances cant start before it gets dark at nine oclock in the evening， and then the mou

41、ntain air becomes very cool. Sometimes people complain about the cold air， but because the operas are good， these people come back again wearing warm coats.64.This passage mainly introduces _.
