But the way to test a students knowledge and ability still re
23、mains as poor as it was. We have almost done nothing to improve our examination system. It is well known that the examination system we are now using may be a good way of testing a students memory, but it can tell you nothing about a students ability. It does no good to students and teachers. As soo
24、n as a child begins school, he enters a world of examinations that will decide his future job. In fact a good examination system should train a student to think for himself. But it now does nothing about that. Students are encouraged to remember what is taught. It does not enable them to gain more n
25、ew knowledge. The students who come out first in the examination often may not be the best in their studies. Besides, the examinations often force teachers to train students what to do with the coming examination from time to time. There must be some simpler and better way to test a students ability
26、 besides knowledge. And that is what we should do at once. 49 The most suitable title of this passage is . （ A） Progress in the Field of Study （ B） Teachers Role in Study （ C） How to Improve Students Ability （ D） Bad Points of the Examination System 50 The examination system we are now using can onl

28、ard at all lessons 51 People today expect to be examined when they enter a doctors office. At least they expect their blood pressure and temperature to be measured. However, as recently as two hundred years ago, a doctors treatment depended on talking with patients. In general, the communication bet
29、ween doctors and their patients was the most important part of medical methods. The modern age of medicine began with the stethoscope, an instrument for listening to patients heartbeat and breathing. Before that, a doctor did not touch a patient. In fact, there was no such thing as a medical examina
30、tion. The stethoscope with all other medical instruments has a serious effect on the practice of medicine. Doctors become better at finding the medical problems. More lives are saved. At the same time, doctors give less importance to the communication between patients and doctors. Some doctors actua
31、lly stop talking to their patients. It is easy to understand why some sick people thought themselves as broken machines. 52 A stethoscope can be used to_. （ A） check health conditions （ B） cure some illnesses （ C） measure temperatures （ D） treat heart disease 53 Doctors give less importance to the c
32、ommunication between patients and doctors mainly because _ . （ A） modern medical instruments are used （ B） they can cure more diseases and save more lives （ C） they have much more medical experience than before （ D） they are too busy to have time to talk with patients 54 Some sick people think of th
33、emselves as broken machines, which suggested that_. （ A） modern doctors should treat their patients as machines （ B） the level of the treatment was greatly improved （ C） they thought they were useless just like broken machines （ D） they were not satisfied with the manner in which doctors treated the

35、ides using steel bars and cement (水泥 ) can help prevent disasters, but it introduces new difficulties. Shaking drills produce harmful dust and loosen heavy, dangerous debris (岩屑 ) . “Its quite a risky job,“ says Giorgio Pezzuto of D Appolonia, an engineering company in Italy. D Appolonia, working wi
36、th eight other companies, may have an answer: a three-ton robot called Roboclimber. “The idea is to operate a machine far away that can drill without a human being on board,“ says Pezzuto, the manager for the project, which is supported by the European Commission. Engineers claim that the machine wi
37、ll be faster and cheaper than manual labor. The robot, a large radio-controlled four-legged mechanical spider, has cost at least $2 million so far. The final product should be able to climb unstable mountainsides, drill holes, insert bars and cement, and collect data on the stability. Testing should
