Dental therapists should stand in routinely for dentists and start drilling and filling patients' teeth to tackle growing NHS waiting lists, the Government's tooth department has said.Patients are waiting weeks longer for an appointment at many surgeries piloting a new NHS system of check-ups, which will be rolled out across the country within two years.The new check-ups require dentists to spend longer assessing each patient, and now Barry Cockcroft, the chief dental officer, has recommended that, to avoid delays, junior staff should take up some tasks traditionally carried out by dentists.This could see therapists, who study for three years, compared with five years for dentists -- drilling and filling adults' teeth, and extracting children's milk teeth. Dental nurses should also play a bigger role, doing procedures such as fluoride varnishes, he said. Speaking to The Mail on Sunday at the British Dental Conference in Manchester, Dr. Cockcroft said: “A dentist is very highly trained and can carry out complex work such as crowns and bridges. Therapists can do extractions and fillings.”Health Minister Earl Howe said patients needed to accept that dentists would do less work on their teeth in the future, and that nurses, hygienists and therapists would do more. He said: “Sometimes in GP practices you see a nurse and sometimes a GP. People will be used t o that.”The pilot of the new dental system involves a traffic-light rating where patients are given a “green”, “amber” or “red” notice on the condition of their teeth and gums. Patients flagged as “red” can be refused advanced treatment until they have im proved their oral health -- by cleaning their teeth more and cutting down on sugary foods. Dentists largely welcome the scheme, which has been running for two-and-a-half years, because it focuses on preventing problems as well as treating them.35. What’s the aim of the new scheme?A. To reduce patients’ waiting time.B. To let nurses do more work.C. To ease the government’s pressureD. To help therapists get a higher pay.36. According to Barry Cockcroft, ________.A. there won’t be delays when one goes to a dentist’sB. dentists’ work will be more boring than everC. junior staff can help with some assessing workD. a dentist will fill and drill adults’ teeth37. If you are flagged as “red”, you ________ to improve your oral health.A. will stay in hospital for some timeB. will receive advanced treatmentC. needn’t pay any attention to itD. have to clean your teeth more often38. What’s the best title of the passage?A. No need to study that long at college.B. Dentists’ work is more important.C. Patients are suffering tooth problems.D. Dentists are to examine a patient longer.CAustralian Prime Minister Tony Abbott says authorities are “throwing everything we have” at the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.He was speaking as weather conditions in the southern Indian Ocean improved, allowing the search to resume.The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) says 12 aircraft are taking part in Wednesday's operations. The plane vanished on 8 March as it flew from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.“We owe it to the families, and we owe it to an anxious world to do everything we can to finally locate some wreckage and to do whatever we can to solve the riddle of this extraordinarily ill-fated flight,” Mr. Abbott said. He also said Australia was ready to assist the families of the missing passengers in any possible way.“There’s a terrible trauma involved -- there's the uncertainty; there's the anguish. It's just an unspeakable time for these people and if they want to come to Australia we’ll make them welcome and we'll do everything we can to assist,” he said.China has sent a special envoy, Zhang Yesui, to Malaysia, to provide some help, the official Xinhua news agency reports.Mr. Zhang met Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak to discuss the search, and will go on to meet Hishammuddin Hussein, Malaysia's acting transport minister.Four Chinese ships and one military aircraft are taking part in the operation in the southern Indian Ocean. The passengers on board were mostly Chinese.Australia has been coordinating the multinational search that is now focused on a remote area of ocean, some 1,500 miles (2,500km) to the south-west of the Australian city of Perth.The Australian parliament in the capital, Canberra, observed a moment of silence on Wednesday for passengers of the missing flight, which included six Australians.Some relatives of the passengers are refusing to accept that their loved ones have died, saying no wreckage has been found.There were angry scenes in Beijing after the Malaysian prime minister said analysis of satellite data showed the plane had almost certainly ended its journey in the southern Indian Ocean.

This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.Samsung says it’s not just something new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.The company also says that with electricity rate(电价)varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do —enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.47. What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?A. The machine will be a big success.B. their wives like doing the laundry.C. The machine is unrelated to their life.D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.48. What can we learn about the new laundry machines?A. They can tell you when your clothes need washingB. They can be controlled with a smartphoneC.

What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The laundry should be frequently checkedB. Lazy people like using such machinesC. Good technologies also cause problemsD. Television may help do the laundry.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分,满分10分）根椐对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
