III．Reading Comprehension
Paage One
I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, middle life for an elephant, ancient for a sportsman.Fifty is a nice number for the states in the US or for a national speed limit, but it is not a number that I was prepared to have hung on me, fifty is supposed to be my father’s age, but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means.A few days ago, a friend tried to cheer me up by saying, ―Fifty is what forty used to be.‖ He had made an inspirational point.Am I over the hill? People keep telling me that the hill has been moved, and I keep telling them that the high-jump bar has dropped from the six feet I onceeasily cleared to the four feet that is impoible for me now.―You’re not getting older, you’re getting better,‖ says Dr.Brothers.This, however, is the kind of doctor who inspires a second opinion.And so, as I approach the day when I can’t even jump over the tennis net, I am moved to share some thoughts on aging with you.Getting older is obviously a better change than the one that brings you eulogies(悼词).Most of my first fifty years have been golden ones, so I’ll settle for what is ahead being as good as what has gone by.I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher was right when he said, ―Old is always fifteen years from now.‖

Paage Two
What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology.With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time.Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war.Today’s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discuion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be real technological event of our times.How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells 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 medicine.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.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.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.36.According to the paage, human death is now mainly caused by __A___.A)diseases and agingB)accidents and war

Paage Three
When Mrs.Joseph Jones died recently in Vienna, Austria, people asked the obvious question, ―Why did she live to be 107?‖ answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who reached the age of 100.somewhat surprising was the fact that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities.In spite of the city’s image as an unhealthy place, city living often provides benefits that country living can lack.One factor seems to be important to the longevity of those interviewed.This factor is exercise.In the cities it is often faster to walk around short distances than to wait for a bus.Even taking public transportation often requires some walking.Smaller apartment houses have no elevators, and so people must climb stairs.City people can usually walk to local supermarkets.Since parking spaces are hard to find, there is often no alternative to walking.On the other hand, those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day.in fact, the opposite is true.To go to school, work, or almost anywhere else, they must ride in cars.41．The Vienna survey may help to explain __C___.a)the complaints of people in apartment houses
