Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions A new British medical instrument is about to change dramatically our ability to recognise disease hidden inside the body It is called the magnetic scanner, and it gives information about the body which current machines, such as the brain scanner and the more recent body scanner, cannot provide And unlike existing machines, the new machine does not use X-ray radiation waves, which make it much safer for patients Unlike existing scanners, a magnetic scanner can show the side or the back of a suspect part of the body Used on, for example, a lung with suspected damage, it can turn the image of the lung to give a series of different views The image is not simply worked out in the computer's "imagination": the magnetic scanner actually examines every side of the lung When examining the softer part of the body with existing scanners, doctors frequently have to use a "contrast medium" to make a muscular organ show up to X-ray waves, the usual "contrast-medium" given to patients before a stomach X-ray scan takes place is harmless, but for some brain scans so that it passes into the brain This is unpleasant and painful and it can be dangerous The magnetic scanner needs no "contrast medium" The new machine can also see in greater detail than ever before Growths of all kinds show up clearly on the brain and so the dead patches which are the signs of the disease, multiple sclerosis Until now patients complaining of double vision or an inability to control their muscles from time to time could be suffering from some much more easily cured disease and a brain scanner could not distinguish between these with certainty The doctor can now definitely say whether or not cancer of multiple sclerosis is present Previously, these diseases have been missed and patients have been given false information about their health The technique is still improving with great speed: pictures produced a couple of years ago look very simple compared with those of today Question 44: What disadvantage existing machines have? A The contrast recorded are too strong B Patients need an injection before they are used C The X-ray waves are sometimes painful D It is often necessary to use a contrast medium Question 45: In what way is the new machine an improvement? A It can show all the details of a diseased part of the body B The techniques involved can be learned quickly C It will never give a double view D It can cure some diseases much more easily Question 46: What does the new magnetic scanner machine do? A It uses a computer to "imagine" different views of the body B It looks at a diseased part of the body from all directions C It can look right through a diseased part of the body D It sends waves round the diseased part of the body Question 47: The machine is useful in identifying the disease multiple sclerosis, because it shows A damage to muscles B dark spots in the eyes C cancer like growths D dead areas in the brain Question 48: "Sclerosis" means A a disease that causes indigestion B a disease hardening soft parts of the body C bronchitis D tuberculosis Question 49: The word “it” in line 10 refers to A The muscular organ B The X-ray wave C The stomach X-ray D The brain scan Question 50: The word “missed” in live 17 is closest in meaning to A notied something is lost B escaped from doing C failed to D felt sad because of the absence The End ...
