Some plays are so successful that they run for years on end. In many ways, this is 36 for the poor actors who are required to go on repeating the sane 37 night after night. One would
38 them to know their parts by heart and 39 have cause to falter(結(jié)巴).Yet 40 is not always the case.
A famous actor in a 41 successful play was once cast in the role of an aristocrat 42 had been imprisoned in Bastille for twenty years. In the last act,a gaoler(監(jiān)獄長,看守)would always come on to the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner. 43 the noble was expected to read the letter at each 44 ,he always insisted that it should be written out in full.
One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke 45 his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the 46 of the letter by heart. The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed(使顯露)the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just then,the gaoler 47 with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the 48 and presented the letter to the aristocrat. But the copy he gave him had not been written out in
49 as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The gaoler looked on eagerly, 50 to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then,squinting(瞇著眼看)his eves,he said,“The light is 51 .Read the letter to me.”And he promptly handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler. 52 that he could not remember a word of the letter either, the gaoler replied,“The light is indeed dim,sir. I must get my 53 ”With this, he hurried off the stage. Much to the aristocrat’s 54 ,the gaoler returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the 55 copy of the letter which he proceeded(繼續(xù)進(jìn)行)to read to the prisoner.

On May 21, 2000, some American scientists were working at the computers to look for information they needed . Suddenly they saw a lot of very bright red spots crossing the computers’ screens. At the same time the computers were working much slower. To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers. To their horror, they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer viruses (病毒). Obviously all these computers had been infected by computer viruses.

Bringing Art into Hospitals
The medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play an important role in helping patients to get better.
As part of nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the museums and into public places, some of the country’s best artists have been called in to change older hospitals and to soften the hard edges of modern buildings. Of the 2500 national health service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have very valuable collections of present art in passages, waiting areas and treatment rooms.
These recent movements first started by one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970s.He felt the artist had lost his place in modern society, and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience(觀眾).
A common hospital waiting room might have as many as 5 000 visitors each week. What a better place to hold regular exhibitions of art! Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the out—patient’s waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975.Believed to be Britain’s first hospital artist. Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.
The effect is striking. Now in the passages and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view of fresh colours, playful images(形象)and restful courtyards.
The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto gardens needed half the number of strong pain killers compared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at.
【小題1】 Some best artists of Britain have been called in to__________.
A.set up new hospitals |
B.make the corners of the hospital collect paintings |
C.bring art into hospitals |
D.help patients recover from serious illnesses |
A.patients no longer take drugs to kill their pains |
B.patients don’t have to stay long in hospital |
C.patients need fewer pain killers when they suffer from an illness |
D.patients feel happy in hospital |
A.the role of hospital environment is important. |
B.hospital artists have done more than doctors |
C.exhibitions attract more audience in hospitals than in museums |
D.the hospital is a better place for people. |
