Let us take an obvious example.Man，even five hundred years ago，was shorter than he is today.Now，on average，men are about three inches taller.Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time，so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.Again，in the modern world we use our brains a great deal.Even so，we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity.As time goes on，however，we shall have to use our brains more and more，and eventually we shall need larger ones！This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head，in particular the forehead，will grow larger. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use.In fact，we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses.But over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger. On the other hand，we tend to make less use of our arms and legs.These，as a result，are likely to grow weaker.At the same time，however，our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life. But what about hair？This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer.In the future，then，both sexes are likely to be bald. Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at！This may well be true.All the same，in spite of all these changes，future man will still have a lot in common with use.He will still be a human being，with thoughts and emotions similar to our own. 31.The passage mainly tells us that_. A.mans life will be different in the future B.future man will look quite different from us C.man is growing taller and uglier as time passes D.mans organs functions will be on the wane 32.What serves as the evidence that man is changing? A.Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had. B.Mans hair is getting thinner and thinner. C.Mans arms and legs have become lighter and weaker. D.Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years. 33.The change in mans size of forehead is probably because_. A.he makes use only 20% of the brains capacity B.his brain has grown larger over the past centuries C.the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time D.he will use his brain more and more as time goes onB Im usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago.While any of these statements might be true，they are practically impossible to prove scientifically.Still，I was struck by a report which concluded that todays children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s.In fact，the analysis showed，normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago. Why are Americas kids so stressed？The report cites two main causes：increasing physical isolation(隔离)brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community，among other things and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place. Considering that we cant turn the clock back，adults can still do plenty to help the next generation cope. At the top of the list is nurturing(培育)a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island.Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress. To help kids build stronger connections with others，you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.Your family will thank you later.They will have more time for facetoface relationships，and they will get more sleep. Limit the amount of virtual(虚拟的)violence your children are exposed to.Its not just video games and movies；children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news. Keep your expectations for your children reasonable.Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale. Make exercise part of your daily routine.It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids.Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable.But it doesnt have to ruin your life. 34.According to the analysis，compared with normal children today，children treated as mentally ill 50 years ago_. A.probably suffered less from anxiety B.were considered less individualistic C.were less isolated physically D.were probably less selfcentered 35.What does the author means by saying “ we_ cant_ turn_ the_ clock_ back”(Para.3)? A.Its impossible to forget the past. B.The social reality children are facing cannot be changed. C.Its impossible to slow down the pace of change. D.Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten. 36.The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about peoples state of mind are _. A.illogicalB.confusingC.surprisingD.questionable 37.The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is_. A.to lower their expectations for them B.to set a good model for them to follow C.to get them more involved socially D.to improve them with a safer environmentC Scientists say that air pollution causes downfall in the worlds average air temperature.In order to prove that theory，ecologists(生态学家)have turned to historical facts in relation to especially huge volcanic eruptions(爆发)They suspect that volcanoes affect weather changes that are similar to air pollution. One source of information is the effect of the eruption of Tambora，a volcano in Sumbawa，the Dutch East Indies，in April 1815.The largest recorded volcanic eruption，Tambora threw 150 million tons fine ash into the air.The ash from a volcano spreads worldwide in a few days and remains in the air for years.Its effect is to turn incoming solar radiation back into space and thus cools the earth.For example，records of weather in England show that between April and November 1815，the average temperature had fallen 4.5.During the next twentyfour months，England suffered one of the coldest periods of its history.Farmers records from April 1815 to December 1818 indicate frost throughout the spring and summer and sharp decreases in crop and farm animal markers.Since there was a time of several years between cause and effect，by the time the world agricultural product community had worsened，no one realized the cause. Ecologists today warn that we face a double threat.The everpresent possibility of volcanic eruptions，such as that of Mt.St.Helens in Washington，added to mans pollution of the atmosphere with oil，gas，coal，and other polluting substance，may bring us increasingly colder weather. 38.The word “affect” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _. A.begin withB.result fromC.act onD.bring about 39.The effect of Tamboras eruption was _. A.felt mainly in the Dutch East Indies B.of a several days period worldwide C.evidence of pollutions cooling the earth D.immediately clear to the worlds scientists 40.The cause of the cold weather in England from 1815 to 1818 was _. A.drop of average temperature by 4.5 B.volcanic ash in the atmosphere C.pollution caused by the Industrial revolution D.increased heat reflection from the land to space 41.Supposing the world ends in ice，which of the following is NOT a cause? A.Modern mans pollution of the air. B.Volcanic eruptions. C.Blocking out of solar radiation. D.The frost between 1815 and 1818. 42.According to the text，which statement is WRONG? A.Ecologists research proved that the scientists were right. B.The ash from the volcano 1815 spread to many other places quickly and stayed in the air for several years. C.The huge volcanic eruptions affected the world agricultural product directly and quickly. D.The world face the threats from the possible eruptions of volcanoes and the pollution of human activities.DGuided Walking Week April 2017Dates: April 30th-May 7th 2017 Location: Abdet, Costa BlancaA week of guided walking in the mountains around Abdet.
