B Scan the text and check your answers exercise A, FUTURISTIC X-RAY SCANNER In the series Star Trek, we see a small hand-held device that has many uses; such as sensor scanning, data analysis, and recording, However, things are different in the real world. Currently, X-ray machines are really big and they need a lot of electricity. These disadvantages make the machines impractical so they cannot fulfil their main purposes. Lots of scientists and engineers have been studying this subject for a long time. Finally, Professor Kovaleski and his team have designed a new power source. It is as big as a USB stick, and it can produce X-rays and other types of radiation. The key to the success of this device is in the materials, It has a lithium niobate crystal and this allows it to make 10-volts of power as strong as 100,000 volts. This is more than enough to produce X-rays. In around three years, we can have a prototype hand-held X-ray scanner. This device, as small as a smartphone, will improve medical services in some poorer areas and also reduce health care expenses everywhere,” says Kovaleski Now, maybe we can ask, is it safe for people to use handheld X-ray machines? Professor Kovaleski’s answer is, “When the device is switched off, it is harmless. Even while its working, it gives out very low radiation.” Read the text again and match the bold words with their definitions. Thand-held a difficult to use 2eurrendly —_b first sample of something 3 impractical _c money that you spend on something 4 prototype —_d not working, turned off S expense —_e now,at this time 6 switched off _f small enough to be used in the hand D Read the sentences below and correct the mistakes in italics. | Currently, X-ray machines are really expensive and they need a lot of electricity. 2 Finally, Professor Kovaleski and his team have designed a new X-ray machine. 3 Its as big as a smartphone, and it ean produce X-rays and other types of radiation, 4 This new device will increase health care expenses everywhere. 5 When the device is working, itis harmless.

They create crowns, bridges, or false teeth for dentists. They work closely with dentists and orthodontists. However, a dental technician is not a dental hygienist. Dental hygienists work with the dentist and mostly “clean” teeth or clean teeth gums. Dental lab technicians don’t clean plaque or put fingers in anybody's mouth. They have very little contact with patients. Contact happens, for example, when they really need to sce the patient’ teeth. Many labs are large, but some technicians ‘work alone in their studios and can work under contract with a dentist."If you're afraid of being alone, don’t be a dental technician.” says one dental technician. Successful DTS say it’s important to be able to make changes quickly. They create replicas of people's teeth. These replicas can be perfect, but they sometimes need minor changes. Then the DT works by looking at the information from the dentist and makes the changes.“Sometimes you make changes four or five times and itis sill not enough”, says a DT. Another adds, ‘We earn enough money but this job can be very difficult sometimes”” They work hard to do their job well (One needs to have a good eye and a good ear to do this job.
