17、四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 AAt the age of fifty, Theodore Roosevelt, a truly great president, made this comment: Now I am fifty years old, and if I stopped learning, and stopped trying to better myself, I feel that my usefulness to the community would be pretty nearly at an end. Those who have studied t
18、he life of Theodore Roosevelt know that he never did stop learning. He was eager to learn all his life. Many people have the mistaken idea that age is a handicap(障碍)when it comes to learning that you gradually lose your ability to learn as you grow older. Surveys show that the ability to learn does
19、not diminish greatly after 20, said Dr. C. Ellis Nelson, a well-known professor in Texas. These tests show, said Dr. Nelson, that in terms of reading and vocabulary there is no significant difference between being 20 or being 60. People aged 20 may show greater facility for mathematics, but this is
20、due almost entirely to the fact that 20-year-olds use math all the time, while 60-year-olds dont. As you grow older, or if you have already reached or passed middle age, dont fool yourself with the idea that the ability to learn diminishes with age. It just isnt true! You can learn and grow intellec
21、tually(智力地)as long as you want to progress and you can continue to do so as long as you are alive. That is one of the truly exciting facts of life. Cato, a wise man of ancient Rome, was forever seeking new intellectual worlds to conquer, and at about 80 he started to study Greek. When a doubter aske
22、d him why he was beginning such a difficult task at such an advanced age, Cato replied calmly and firmly: It is the youngest age I have left. I enjoy it. and went on with his studies. In the end, he reached his goal. Age, said E. L. Thorndike, a famous psychologist, is not a handicap to learning. Yo
23、u never grow too old to learn.41. Theodore Roosevelt didnt stop learning at fifty because_. A he felt he was usefulB. he was encouraged by his great commentC. he believed he was never too old to learnD. he wanted to show his value to the community 42. 20-year -old people show greater facility for ma
24、thematics than 60-year-old people because _. A. they are better educated than the latterB. they like maths more than the latterC. they use maths more often than the latter D. theyre required to learn more maths skills than the latter43. The underlined word diminish in the second paragraph probably m
25、eans_. A. become smaller or weaker B. grow little by littleC. increase D. disappear 44. From the passage we can infer that ancient Greek was _. A. very interesting B. difficult to learn C. a useful language D. very fashionable BWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one pers
26、on a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind
27、 is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think a
28、bout. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psyc
29、hologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” o
30、r “You are such a smart child.”45. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful an
31、d helpful; careless46. According to the context we can guess that a genius is _ while an idiot is _.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person47. A person _ is more likely to
32、 become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use48. It is better for parents _.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC
33、. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible49. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their childrens growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is o
34、bviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.赞同CIt was a village in India . The people were poor. However , they were not unhappy .After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries. Then one day. Some visitors from
35、 the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frogs legs . However , they did not have enough frogs of their own ,and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.This seemed like money for nothing .There were millions of frogs in the fields around, an
36、d they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them .Agreement was reached ,and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time , the people were able to dream of a batter future ,Bu
37、t the dream didnt last long.The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more ofen, and, there seeemed to be more insects around lately.The vilagers decided that they couldnt just wait to see the crops fail
38、ing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicines.Soon there was no money left.Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadnt been useless.They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now with so many fro
39、gs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases. Now, the peoplele are still poor.But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs.These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning .50. From p

42、 hapiness comes from peaceful life in the countryB.Health is more important than moneyC.the harmoney betwwenn man and nature is importantD. good old day will never be forgottenDWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to t
43、he 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 diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory. In discus
44、sion 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 final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until r
45、ecently, 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 medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the
46、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 same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. I
47、t 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. 54. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _. A. diseases and aging B.
48、accidents and warC. accidents and aging D. heart diseases and war55. In the authors opinion, todays most important advance in technology lies in _.

A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureB. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC.
50、 much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsEWhen students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say,
51、 but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority （优先）. This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students. Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it
52、reflects their thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American mu
53、sical traditions. Music expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society. Music provides a kind of perception（感知）that cannot be acquired any other way . Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotive（情感的） meaning of the same phenomenon . We need eve
54、ry possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all. The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other. They are the language of
55、civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as musi
56、c, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses. Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love. So music education is far more necessary than people
57、seem to realize. 58. According to Paragraph 1, students_. A. regard music as a way of entertainmentB. disagree with their parents on educationC. view music as an overlooked subjectD. prefer the arts to science59. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to . A. compare it with rock musicB.
58、 show music identifies a societyC. introduce American musical traditionsD. prove music influences peoples lifestyles60. According to the passage, the arts and science . A. approach the world from different anglesB. explore different phenomena of the worldC. express peoples feelings in different ways
