42、ners between the north and south of Britain the “worst” manners were in Scotland and the northeast, and the “best” in Wales and the southeast!

49、 the world, especially in developing countries. The World Health Organization says glaucoma is a greater public health challenge than cataracts（白内障）, because the blindness caused by the latter can be cured after operations.Glaucoma is a disease that makes people around the world lose their sight, an
50、d they usually dont even know they have the disease until it has permanently destroyed at least 40 percent of their sight. The process is usually so painless and subtle（不明显的）, so people dont notice it. Actually, the simplest medical test can discover it.“It is the leading cause of blindness in the U
51、nited States. In Hispanics and in African-Americans, its the second leading cause of blindness and so is the case in the Chinese and Indians.” said Dr. Alan Robin, a specialist in treating glaucoma. “The glaucoma we see in sub-Saharan Africa is a much more aggressive blinding disease than the glauco
52、ma we see in Americans or even African- Americans in-the United States.” he said Dr. Eric Fleischer also sees these differences at Medstar Washington Hospital Center. “Pretty much anybody who has ancestors in Africa has an increased chance of developing glaucoma.” Age is another thing that may lead
53、to glaucoma, although people of all ages can get it.Glaucoma is a group of diseases that commonly produce pressure in the eye. An eye is sort of like a watch. And behind the face of the watch, liquid is made. It goes through your pupil（瞳孔）and into the front of the watch between the face and the crys
54、talTheres an area around the edge of the watch that drains（使排出）the liquid. When that drain is blocked, the liquid cant leave the eye as fast as it is produced. The rising pressure within the eye damages and eventually kills the optic（视觉的） nerve. The result is blindness.Fortunately, if caught early,

56、at do the underlined words “these differences”（in Para 4 ）refer to?A. The differences in regions（地区） B. The cultural differencesC. The differences in ageD. The physical differences70.

80、am began? Its an international favorite with a long and interesting history. The earliest ices were eaten in China many years ago. The people would put orange juice on ice. Later this idea traveled to Italy. Nero, the emperor of Rome between 37 and 68 AD liked to eat ice as a special treat between v
81、iolin lessons. He ordered runners to run to the mountains, get snow and quickly ran back to the palace. The snow was mixed with fruit juices and nuts. Around 1660, coffee shops serving ice cream were very popular in Paris. Italians owned most of the coffee shops. A man from Sicily, named Francesco,
82、opened the first successful one. Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and frozen at home. It took a lot of work to make the cream, eggs, fruit, ice and salt and then to freeze it. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines invented the hand-turned ice-cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream business in Maryland, US. His business quickly spread to other states. Today, in the US, ice cream is not only a nice food, but a way of life.
