Đọc kỹ bài khoá và chọn phương án đúng (ứng với A hoặc B,C,D) cho các câu từ 22 đến 26: A laser is a device that produces a very special kind of light. Lasers are expensive tools. Charles Townes, who is one of the inventors of the laser and won a Nobel prize, said, “Laser is going to touch on a very great number of areas. The laser will do almost everything; but it is expensive. That is the only limitation.” For example, a typical surgical laser costs from 30,000 $ to 50,000 $. It is about a thousand times more than a good conventional scalpel. To be honest, for many operations a scalpel may be better than a laser. But if you have a certain kind of cancer, a laser can do what a scalpel cannot. A laser will kill the diseased cells and leave the healthy ones unharmed. The beam can cut with a precision that no scalpel can do. 22. A laser produces…………. A. a special light B. tools C. a device D. invention 23. What is the limitation of the laser? A.
