John Smith was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence. His wife had to constantly remind him about his meetings,

11、 his classes even his meals. Once he forgot he ate breakfast twice, at home and at school. His wife liked to remind her neighbors, “If John didnt have his head tied on, - 4 -he would forget that too!” Since Smith was a professor at a well-known university, his forgetfulness was often an embarrassmen

12、t. It wasnt that he was not clever, as some critical people tended to say, just very, very absent minded. One hot summer day, Professor Smith decided to take his children to a seaside town about a three-hour train ride away. To make the trip more interesting for his young children, he kept the name

13、of the town a secret. However, by the time they arrived at the station, Smith forgot the name of the town he was planning to visit. Luckily, a friend of his happened to be in the station. He offered to take care of the children while Smith hurried back home to find out where he was going.The profess

14、ors wife was surprised to see him again so soon. “Oh, my dear, I forgot the name of the town.” “What? You forgot the name? May be one day you will forget my name! Now Ill write the name of that town on a piece of paper, and you put it in your pocket and please, please dont forget where you put it.”S

15、atisfied that she had solved the problem, she sent her husband off again. Ten minutes later she was astonished to see him outside the house for the third time.“What is the matter now?”“As you told me, I didnt forget where I put the name of that town, but I forgot where I left our children!”21. In th

16、e opinion of the writer of this passage, the professor is _.A. critical B. forgetful C. foolish D. careless 22. The underlined word “embarrassment” in the first paragraph may mean _.A. amusement B. satisfaction C. fun D. discomfort23. From the end of the story, we know Mrs Smith would probably be ve

17、ry_.A. angry B. satisfied C. sorry D. funny- 5 -BCompassion is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into actions. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are o

18、ur main customers, and its not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机)with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash (现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in

19、 his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.I couldnt help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind o

20、f human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didnt allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job.Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Change it to me,” was all he said.

21、What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had

22、reached into my heart and taught me compassion.24. The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits_.Apromised to obey the store rules Bforgot to take any money with himChoped to have the food first and pay later Dcould not afford anything more expensive- 6 -25.

23、s the old gentleman?Apoor and lonely Bkind and luckyCfriendly and helpful Dhurt and disappointed26.

24、ld man27. What does the writer learn from his experience?AWealth is more important than anything else BHelping others is easier said than doneCExperience is better gained through practice DObeying the rules means more than compassion.CShe took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at

25、 age 114, and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday.When it comes to long life, Jeanne Calment is the worlds recordholder. She lived to the ripe old age of 122. So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span(寿命)? If scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would sl

26、ow aging, could we possibly make it to 150or beyond?Researchers dont entirely agree on the answers. “Calment lived to 122, so it wouldnt surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135, ”says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas.Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees. “People can live

27、 much longer than we think, ”he says. “Experts used to say that humans couldnt live past 110. When Calment blew past that age, they raised the number to 120. So why cant we go higher? ”The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that its all - 7 -just guessing. “Anyone can make up a n

28、umber, ”says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan. “Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in Time magazine. ”Wont new anti-aging techniques keep us alive for centuries? Any cure, says Miller, for aging would probably keep most of us kicking until about 120. Researcher

29、s are working on treatments that lengthen the life span of mice by 50 percent at most. So, if the average human life span is about 80 years, says Miller, “adding another 50 percent would get you to 120. ”So what can we conclude from this little disagreement among the researchers? That life span is f

30、lexible(有弹性的), but there is a limit, says George Martin of the University of Washington. “We can get flies to live 50 percent longer, ”he says. “But a flys never going to live 150 years. ”Of course, if you became a new species (物种), one that ages at a slower speed, that would be a different story, h

31、e adds.Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve (进化)their way to longer life? “Its pretty cool to think about, ”he says with a smile.28. What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove to us? A. People can live to 122. B. Old people are creative.C. Women are sporty at 85.D. Women live longer

32、than men. 29. According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas, _. A. the average human life span could be 110 B. scientists cannot find ways to slow aging C. few people can expect to live to over 150 D. researchers are not sure how long people can live 30. Who would agree that a scientist will

33、become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity?A. Jerry Shay. B. Steve Austad C. Rich Miller D. George Martin - 8 -31. What can we infer from the last three paragraphs? A. The average human life span cannot be doubled B. Most of us could be good at sports even at 120.C. Scientists believe

34、mice are aging at a slower speed than before. D. New techniques could be used to change flies into a new speciesDDeserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活) if the rai

35、n is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand acro

36、ss the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high. There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United State

37、s, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing-very, very slowl

38、y-as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the
