2、my school lessons and sports.When I was young, my mother encouraged me to develop and keep friendship with boys in order to build strong relationships. But she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend. Its indeed a wise choice to stay friends with those of the opp
3、osite sex. In my opinion ,even though some high school relationships might continue after graduation, the possibility of them lasting much longer is so slim(微小的) that there really is not a point to it.Firstly you have to think bout a questionwhether it is possible to hurt both of you, or even hurt b
4、oth of your future husbands or wives. My second point is that you still can date if you hope marriage could possibly follow. Except this, there is not any other reason for dating. Some students desire relationships for a chance to be romantic. While these are nice to have, there are many more import
5、ant things at this point in our lives. The titles of boyfriend and girlfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school sthdents. Just staying as common friends may be the best choice for us. I strongly advise we should deal with it in a proper way and follow our teachers advice if n
6、ecessary.21.The author writes this passage probably for _ to read. A .high school students B.school teachers C.parents and teachers D.married couples22.Between sexes, the relationship of being good friends might be _ than that of being boy/girl friends.

A.the title of boyfriend or girlfriend at school B.advice given by both teachers and parents C.the pressure from school lessons and sports D.the relationship between students of opposite sexes BWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you
9、 think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Todays leading killers, such as heart
10、diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory. In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the fin
11、al death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medi
12、cine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on-in much the
13、 same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.25.

15、er in the future because _.A. heart disease will be far away from usB. human brains can decide the final deathC. the basic materials of cells will last foreverD. human organs can be repaired by new medicine28. We can learn from the passage that _.A. human life will not last more than 120 years in th
16、e futureB. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells. CThe greatest recent changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there was
17、an unusual shortening of the time of a womans life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the 19th century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time
18、 the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a womans youngest child will be fift
19、een when she is forty-five and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children ,her work is lightened by household appliances（家用电器）and convenience foods.This important change in womens way of life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women
20、s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and
21、 though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more after wads, return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater share of the d
22、uties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money and running the home, according to the abilities and interest of each of them.29.
