carriers and all plastic carriers must be clearly marketed with prices from June 1.“People use too many plastic bags every year and fail to deal with them properly,wasting valuable oil and littering the country,”Chinas government said in a statement.While providing convenience for consumers（消费者），the plastic bags have also caused serious pollution and waste of energy and resources.“We should encourage people to return to carrying cloth bags,and using baskets for their vegetables.”the statement said.In addition,the production,sale and use of bags less than 0.025 mm thick is banned from the same date.The firms that break the rules will face fines or confiscation（没收）of goods and profits（利润）.China also said it would consider increasing taxes（税）to discourage the production and sale of plastic bags and encourage the recycling industry.Rubbish collectors have to separate plastic for reprocessing and cut the number of plastic bags that are burnt or buried（掩埋）.The move brings China into line with a growing international trend（趋势）to cut back on the use of plastic bags.From Ireland to Uganda and South Africa,governments have experimented with heavy taxes,with the aim of getting rid of plastic bags.61.China decided to take action to stop the use of plastic bags because _.A.they are not free any more B.they cant provide convenience for consumers C.they have polluted the

outside the operating room.This kind of operation is known as robotic operation.Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month,while a sixty-eight-year-old woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg,France.A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready.He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her stomach area.Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen.Then he used the computer to send messages to the robot machine.The robot moved the tools that cut the womans gallbladder（胆囊）away.The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later.Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications between the doctor and the robot.Technology must be able to send a doctors order to a robot to move the tools quickly.Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation.For example,the robot can make much smaller movements than a person can.A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctors hand cannot.Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future.They say it will improve doctor training.It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous places far away.And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to travel to the city where doctors work.66.“Robotic operation”means“_”.A.a special kind of robot invented by doctors B.an operation done far away C.an operation done with the help of a robot D.something done to
