Of course no waiter came at all. At last, a woman held a plate full of food and sat down opposite him. When she saw the old man without any food, she told him how a cafeteria worked.

“Start out at that end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end they’ll tell you how much you have to pay. After you pay for the food, you can bring it here and eat it.”

“I soon knew how everything works in America,” the grandfather told a friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want only if you are willing to pay the money.

China had decided to take action to stop the use of plastic bags. Supermarkets, shops and outlets (經(jīng)銷店) in China will not be allowed to hand out free plastic carriers and all plastic carriers must be clearly marketed with prices from June 1.

“People use too many plastic bags every year and fail to deal with them properly, wasting valuable oil and littering the country,” China’s government said in a statement.

While providing convenience for consumers (消費者),the plastic bags have also caused serious pollution and waste of energy and resources.

“We should encourage people to return to carrying cloth bags, and using baskets for their vegetables.” the statement said.

In addition, the production, sale and use of bags less than 0.025 mm thick is banned from the same date. The firms that break the rules will face fines or confiscation (沒收) of goods and profits (利潤).

China also said it would consider increasing taxes (稅) to discourage the production and sale of plastic bags and encourage the recycling industry.

Rubbish collectors have to separate plastic for reprocessing and cut the number of plastic bags that are burnt or buried (掩埋).

The move brings China into line with a growing international trend (趨勢) to cut back on the use of plastic bags. From Ireland to Uganda and South Africa, governments have experimented with heavy taxes, with the aim of getting rid of plastic bags.

61. China decided to take action to stop the use of plastic bags because _______.

A. they are not free any more               

B. they can’t provide convenience for consumers

C. they have polluted the environment and wasted valuable oil                       

D. the firms have increased the cost

63. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

   A. The company that won’t obey the rules will face fines.

B. Taxes will be increased to discourage the production and sale of plastic bags.

   C. Rubbish collectors will burn or bury all plastic bags.                    

D. Plastic should be separated for reprocessing.

64. From the passage, we can infer (推斷) that _______.

   A. China will be among the strongest nations in the world

B. people all carry cloth bags or baskets for their vegetables

French doctors and American scientists have reported doing an operation in which the doctor was outside the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation.

Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France.

A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her stomach area. Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman’s gallbladder (膽囊) away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later.

Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor’s order to a robot to move the tools quickly.

Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For example, the robot can make much smaller movements than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor’s hand cannot.

Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to travel to the city where doctors work.

66. “Robotic operation” means “________”.

A. a special kind of robot invented by doctors

B. an operation done far away

C. an operation done with the help of a robot

D. something done to mend a robot

67. We use the robot in the operation because _______.

A. it can send messages at a high speed

B. even a top doctor can’t do the operation himself

C. it can make the operation safer and better

D. operations can be done without any doctors

68. If we want to use the robot in the operation, we must solve the problem of ________.

A. top doctors                       B. smaller movements

C. doctor training                                D. high-speed telecommunications

69. If the smaller movement can’t be done by doctors in the operation, we may use _______ to solve it.

A. more tools                                      B. a robot machine

C. a video camera                                D. telecommunications

70. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Robotic operation is good for doctor training.

B. Robotic operation has been used in the USA.

C. Experts speak highly of robotic operation.

D. The robot is used to watch the patient clearly.
