32、 get you off right now! The train was running toward them at a speed of some 105,kilometers per hour. The drivers door cannot be opened due to the collision, so Dipinto quickly ran to the other side and managed to open the door. He put the airbags aside, seized her arms, pulled her toward him across

38、e truck when the accident happened.CThe damage that aging does to a body extends all the way down to the cellular level. But the damage increased by cells in older muscles is especially severe, because the cells do not reproduce easily and they become weaker as their mitochondria（线粒体）,which produce
39、energy, reduce in energy and number. A study, however, suggests that certain sorts of exercise may remove some of what time can do to our mitochondria.Exercise is good for people, as everyone knows. But scientists have surprisingly little understanding of its cellular impacts and how those might var
40、y by activity and the age of the exerciser. So researchers recently conducted an experiment on the cells of 72 healthy but sedentary（久坐的）men and women who were 30 or younger or older than 64. After baseline measures were established for their aerobic（有氧的）fitness, their blood-sugar levels and the gen
41、e activity and mitochondrial health in their muscle cells, the volunteers were randomly assigned to a particular exercise program.Some of them did weight training several times a week; sonic did interval training three times a week on exercise bicycles; some rode exercise bikes at a appropriate pace
42、 for 30 minutes a few times a week and lifted weights lightly on other days. A fourth group, the control, did not exercise. After 12 weeks, the lab tests were repeated. In general, everyone experienced improvements in fitness and an ability io regulate blood sugar.But more unexpected results were fo
43、und in the biopsies（活组织检查）muscle cells. Among the younger subjects who went through interval training, the activity levels had changed in 274 genes, compared with 170 genes for those who exercised more appropriately and 74 for the weight lifters. Among the older group, almost 400 genes were working
44、differently now, compared with 33 for the weight lifters and only 19 for the appropriate exercisers.It seems exercise could help contain the decline in the cellular health of muscles associated with aging, especially if it was intense, says Dr. Sreekumaran Nair, the studys senior author. In fact, ol
45、der peoples cells responded in some ways more strongly to intense exercise than the cells of the young did - suggesting, he says, that it is never too late to benefit from exercise.46.

By comparing every groups training time.C. By listing every groups different training.D. By describing every groups training res
48、ults.49. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. The experiment did not get expected results.B. Riding exercise bikes has no influence on the volunteers.C. Weight lifting is the most useful training among these exercises.D. Interval training brings stronger influence to the elder than to the youth.
49、50. Which can replace the underlined word contain?A. changeB. stopC. recordD. causeDPredictions about higher educations future often result in two very different visions about what is next for colleges and universities. In one camp: those who paint a rosy picture of an economy that will continue to
50、demand higher levels of education for an increasing share of the workforce. In the other: those who believe fewer people will enroll in college as tuition costs go out of control and alternatives to the traditional degree emerge.We are living in an age for learning, when theres so much knowledge ava
51、ilable, that one would think (hat this is good news for higher education/ Bryan Alexander told me recently, Alexander writes often about the future of higher education and Is finishing a book on the subject for Johns Hopkins University Press. Yet weve seen enrollment in higher education drop for six
52、 years.Alexander believes dint for some colleges and universities to survive, they need to shift from their historical mission of serving one type of student (usually a teenager fresh out of high school) for a specific period of time. Were going to see many different ways through higher education in

The question is, which institutions adopt new models and which try desperately to hang on to what they have?“The fact is that to maintain affordability. accessibility and excellenc
54、e, something needs to change, Rafael Bras, Georgia Techs provost (院长)，told me when he unveiled the report at the Milken Institute Global Conference this past spring.The commissions report includes many impressive ideas, but three point to the possibility of a very different future for colleges and u
55、niversities.(1) College for life, rather than just four years. The primary recommendation of the Georgia Tech report is that the university turns itself into a place for lifelong learning that allows students to “associate rather than enroll.”(2) A network advisers and coaches for a career. If educa
56、tion never ends, Georgia Tech predicts, neither should the critical advising function that colleges provide to students.(3) A distributed presence around the world. Colleges and universities operate campuses and require students to come to them. In the past couple of decades, online education has gr
57、own greatly, but for the most part, higher education is still about face-to-face interactions.Georgia Tech imagines a future in which the two worlds are blended in what il calls the atrium - a place that share space with entrepreneurs and become gathering places for students and alumni.In some ways,
58、 as (he report noted, the atrium idea is a nod to the past, when universities had agricultural and engineering experiment stations with services closer to where people in the state needed them.Whether Georgia Techs ideas will become real is, of course, unclear. But as Alexander told me after reading
59、 il, There is a strong emphasis on flexibility and transformation so they can meet emergent trends.” This is clear: colleges and universities are about to undergo a period of deep change - whether they want to or not - as the needs of students and the economy shift.51. What can we learn from the two

Traditional higher education is not practical,D. Declining enrollment in college results from easy learning.52. What should traditional colleges do
