25、me in a roughly predictable pattern. In the first stage of our lives, we develop and grow, reaching toward the top of physical vitality (活力,生气). After we grow up, however, the body begins a process of gradually wearing out.A new awareness of physical fitness may help lengthen our years of health and
26、 vitality, yet nothing we do will work to stop the unavoidable force of aging.Most of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body. The lungs become less able to take in oxygen. Powerful muscles gradually lose their strength. The heart loses power and pumps less blood. Bones grow easier to b
27、reak. Finally, we meet a stress, a stress that is greater than our physical resistance. Often, it is only a minor accident or chance infection (a disease caused by virus), but this time, it brings life to an end. In 1932, a classic experiment nearly doubled the lifetime of rats, simply by cutting ba
28、ck the calories in their diet. The reason for the effect was then unknown.Today, at the University of California at Berkley, Dr. Paul Seagle has also greatly lengthened the normal lifetime of rats. The result was achieved through a special protein limited diet, which had a great effect on the chemis
29、try of the brain. Seagle showed that within the brain, specific chemicals control many of the signals that influence aging. By changing that chemical balance, the clock of aging can be reset.For the first time, the mystery of why we age is being seriously challenged. Scientists in many fields are no
30、w making striking and far-reaching discoveries.An average lifetime lasts 75 years, yet in each of us lies a potential for a longer life. If we could keep the vitality and resistance to disease that we have at age twenty, we would live for 800 years.41. What does the underlined word “it” refer to? A.

34、uman Life D. The Breakthrough in the Study of AgingCJames Cooke, of Islip,N.Y.,cant recognize other people. “I see eyes, nose, cheekbones, but no face,” he said. “Ive even passed by my son and daughter without recognizing them.” He is not the only one. Those with prosopagnosia, also known as face bl
35、indness, can see perfectly well, but their brains are unable to piece together the information needed to understand that a collection of features represents an individuals face. The condition is a neurological(神经病学的)mystery, but new research has shed light on this strange disease. Some scientists ha
36、d believed that faces and voices, the two main ways people recognize one another, were processed separately by the brain. Indeed, a condition parallel to prosopagnosia, called phonagnosia, similarly leaves a person unable to distinguish a familiar voice from an unfamiliar one. But by testing for the
37、se two conditions at the same time, researchers at the Max Planck Institute recently found evidence that face and voice recognition may be linked in a unique person-recognition system. The scientists observed the brain activity of 19 healthy volunteers as they were led through tasks that tested thei
38、r ability to recognize both faces and voices. The researchers found that regions of the brain, associated with facial recognition, are directly linked to regions responsible for voice recognition. This research helps explain why a person with prosopagnosia may still have difficulty determining who a
39、 person is even after he has begun to speak. The challenge for scientists is to find out where this system breaks down. Are these connections in the brain missing entirely, or are people unable to recognize faces and voices simply unable to use these links in some way? It is unclear how many people
40、have these conditions. Many dont even realize they have problems with facial or voice recognition. While some develop these difficulties after a brain injury, others develop it in childhood. 46. James Cooke cant recognize other people because .A. his eyesight is failing B. he prefers to walk hurried
41、ly 来源:学科网C. he suffers from face blindnessD. he cant tell facial expressions47. Which of the following is true of prosopagnosia?A. It is a common disease among adults.B. It may cause damage to the brain.C. It is always an inborn disease. D. There has been no cure for it. 48. According to Paragraph 3
42、, the underlined word “phonagnosia” may be known as .A. voice blindnessB. memory lossesC. facial injuriesD. mental illness49. According to the recently discovered evidence, .A. different regions of the brain have to work separatelyB. people with phonagnosia are good at facial recognition C. regions
43、of the brain for personal recognition are connected D. person recognition is controlled by the same part of the brain50. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. The causes of the two diseases have been discovered recently.B. The scientists are quite satisfied with the evidence and findings.
44、C. Some people have problems with both facial and voice recognition.D. A lot of patients have been assisted medically and psychologically.DWe lived in a very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. Earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some s
45、oft drinks. It seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenage daughter Holly practice her driving, so I sent her to the store in my truck. At dinner my son talked about how much he liked my truck. I enjoyed having it, but I said, “Guy, my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is
46、just metal and wont last forever. Never set your heart on anything that wont last.” After hearing the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. My son shouted, “Dad! Dad, Holloy crashed your truck.” My heart sank and my mind was flooded with conflicting thoughts. Was anyone hurt? Who else was involv
47、ed? As I ran to the door, I heard a voice in my heart say, “Here is a chance to show Holly what you really love. Shell never forget it.” The accident had occurred in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). In her inexperience, she had confused the br
48、akes and the gas pedal. Holly was unhurt physically, but when I reached her, she was crying and saying, “Oh, Dad, Im sorry. I know how much you love this truck.” I held her in my arms as she cried. Later that week a friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. I told her the whole stor
49、y. Her eyes moistened and she said, “That happened to me when I was a girl. I borrowed my dads car and ran into a log that had fallen across the road. I ruined the car. When I got home my dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.” Over 40 years later, she still felt the pain of the night. I
50、t was a deep wound on her soul. I remember how sad Holly was the night she crashed our truck, and how I comforted her. One day, when Holly thinks back on her life, I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than any piece of property. I repaired the van, but the dent (凹痕) in my truck i

(2)
56、Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness. (3)As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it everyday and soon it c
57、annot be broken.” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isnt a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous effort. (4)Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first
58、 men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million mi
59、les. (5)Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply developed habitual tendencies such as procrastination(拖延) , impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that go against basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little wi
60、llpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new situation.(6)Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be ke

It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish
