Laser Applications
Laser beams have a variety of uses in industry, scientific research, communication, medicine, and military
programs. Light lasers focused on a small spot can heat, melt, or vaporize material. Scientists monitor the
earth's movements and study molecular structures with lasers. Laser light is ideal for space communications
because it travels far through outer space with little reduction in signal strength. On earth, optical fibers
transmit laser light for communication in telephone and computer systems. Surgeons use lasers because the
beams can cut and sear tissue in a fraction of a second without damaging the surrounding healthy tissue.
Matter lasers are still experimental but may be used in the future to improve the accuracy of atomic clocks,
make better computer chips, and measure interactions at the atomic and subatomic level that were difficult
(if not impossible) to study before.
Questions
1. In what fields are laser beams used?
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
2. How fast can the laser beams cut and sear tissue?
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

IV. Read the passage carefully.
Jack London’s life and writings are thought by many to represent the American love of adventure. He was
born in San Francisco, California, and quit school at fourteen to become a sailor. He traveled a great deal
during his short lifetime, in the United States, Europe, and the Far East. When gold was discovered in Alaska
in 1897, Jack London, answering the call of adventure, took part in the famous “gold rush”. His experiences in
the wild northern country provided him with material for many of his later stories and novels, including To
Build A Fire. Among his best-known novels are The Call of the Wild and The Sea-Wolf.
