machines to machines so large they can photograph an automobile Yet more than 100 years ago, no one had ever heard of an X-ray In 1895, a German scientist named Wilhelm Roentgen noticed barium platinocyanide crystals glowing from an unknown source of light in a dark room The man knew that there was a lighted bulb in the laboratory, but this bulb was totally screened by a tight casing of black cardboard He concluded then that some unknown kind of light ray was passing through the screen to shine on the crystals With great excitement, Roentgen studied these strange new rays He called them X rays, because X is the scientific symbol which stands for the unknown X rays, Roentgen discovered, could pass through cardboard, cloth, wooden boards, and even metals Roentgen's discovery of X rays was tremendously important to modern medicine Doctors depend on this valuable tool to help them diagnose many kinds of medical problems from broken bones to cancer Industry and scientific research make widespread use of X rays, too X ravs make it possible to measure the amount of ethyl in gasoline or to inspect metal, plastic, rubber, and other materials for flaws that not appear on the surface In these and other ways, the rays which mystified Roentgen in his laboratory long ago are used by scientists today Question 45: Roentgen called these strange new rays X rays because A what

A CO2 allows sunlight to enter and leave the Earth's atmosphere.’ B The level of CO2 has risen by as much as 15% C A portion of sunlight is filtered out before entering the Earth D The sun emits some very dangerous wavelengths Question 29: What is mainly discussed in paragraph 1?

A CO2 raises the surface temperature of the Earth B CO2 is a by-product of the burning of fossil fuels C Global CO2 concentrations have been increasing D CO2 is a normal component of the atmosphere Question 38: The word “it” in paragraph reffers to A sunlight reaching the Earth B CO2 in the lower atmosphere C ozone in the upper atmosphere D water vapour Question 39: What is mainly discussed in paragraph 1?
