One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the 36 direction at about the same speed. As we 37 each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be 38 , as I was, how dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall 39 , not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden 40 . Though we had 41 spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.
Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world 42 . At some 43 , we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us 44 not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act 45 , with friends or even with 46 .
As technology 47 our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which 48 thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a 49 problem, one requiring coordinated action by police and intelligence forces across the world’ We must recognize that our fates are not ours 50 to control.
In my own life, I’ve put great stock in 51 responsibility. 52 , as the years have passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of 53 . So, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a 54 road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of 55 .

Good news! Tiny robots designed by University of Nebraska researchers may 50 doctors on Earth to help perform surgery on patients in space.
The tiny, wheeled robots, which are about 3 inches tall and as wide a lipstick case, can be slipped into small incisions ( 切口 ) and computer-controlled by surgeons in different51 . Some robots are equipped with 52 and lights and can send images back to surgeons and others have surgical tools attached that can be controlled 53 .
“ We think this is going to 54 open surgery.” Dr. Dmitry Oleynikov said at a news conference. Oleynikov is a 55 in computer-assisted surgery at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha.
Officials hope that NASA will teach 56 to use the robots soon enough 57

Because several robots can be inserted through one incision, they could reduce the amount and 61
of cuts needed for surgery, which would decrease recovery time. This is particularly 62 to those patients who have been weakened by long illness.

Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to 42 eye-pain, headache and other p
roblems. Some pollutants can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer. Most scientists 43 that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People began to 44 the problem in the early 1970s, when it was that builders began making houses and offices which did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that 45 the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to 46 harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control 47 for building green plants. Scientist do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe t
hat a plant’s leaves take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant produces oxygen 48 its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square meters of space. Studies of different plants show that each 49 different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants.
