  Besides offering news from all over the  44 , newspapers give us a lot of other useful  45 .

For those who  51  newspapers, advertisements make it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a  52   price.

  Some new Japanese robots could hit balls, draw pictures and breathe. Even so, the robots on display at the World Expo(博览会) on Thursday were test models and still need some work.
  Their developers say all the robots need improving, because it will still be years before robots can help the sick and save people in danger.
  The Batting Robot has a fast vision system(视觉系统). It can deal with 1,000 pictures a second, more than 30 times the human eye. At the expo, however, it was using a plastic bat to hit rubber balls.
  Cooper was drawing the faces of visitors on large cookies with a pen. It has a program that translates pictures from a digital camera into line-drawing instructions.

  As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.
  Spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The damage(危害) done by radiation won’t be discovered until their children or even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but there is no really helpful medicine.
  Space junk(垃圾) is also thought a great danger to spacemen. It’s reported that there are 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space junk. An explosion(爆炸) in 1996 made a cloud of 300,000 fragments, each at least 4mm in size, and even a small piece of these knocked against a spaceship window and did some damage. Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working on helpful ways to do with space junk.
  Although space is really dangerous, it interests everyone on Earth. In the near future, it may become usual for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave Earth and live in space in a few years. So we should care for space and do something to help improve the space environment.
  61. ______ shows the man-made things in space in the correct way.

  A. spacemen working in spaceB. people only on Earth
