A. the bones are harder than them B. the bones can help absorb more rays than them C. the bones can block more rays than them D. X-rays cannot pass through the bones D Procter and Gamblehas announced that it’ll enlarge its household products empire by combining with Gillette. The deal is expected to close this autumn because it should get permission from US Antitrust Regulators.P&G said in a statement.

题目列表(包括答案和解析)

It was a dark November day in 1895. In a laboratory at the royal University of Wurzburg, in western Germany, a 50-year-old physics professor, Wilhelm Roentgen, performed what looked like a type of magic. He placed a glass vacuum(真空)tube inside a black cardboard box and applied a high-voltage current(高压电流). He suddenly noticed that, on a bench nearby, a piece of paper coated with a chemical substance began giving off an strange light. Over the following two weeks, Roentgen performed a series of experiments that proved the existence of a form of electro-magnetic(电磁的)radiation he called X-rays.

His astonishing discovery has led to a deeper understanding of the physical world----in particular, to the field of medical diagnosis(诊断).

X-rays are widely used in medicine to make radiographs or X-rays pictures of the bones and internal organs of the body to see whether diseases exist, such as broken bones or lung diseases.

A radiograph is made by passing an X-rays beam through a patient’s body onto a piece of photographic film. The bones takes in more of the rays than do muscles or other organs, so the bones throw the sharpest shadows on the film.

Improvements over the past century----from fluoroscopy(荧光透视法)to CT scans---- have made X-rays technology an invaluable tool of medicine.
