than you and you feel like all your hard work is for 42. it is a fools game. not one of us is exactly 43. the only direct and honest comparison is 44yourself. everything else is apples to oranges.my opinion is that you are only 45 to compare yourself to someone else if their life 46 is the same as your own. good luck finding that 47. and one thing is for sure. no matter how hard you work and how dedicated you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. and if theres not, you can 48 someone is

predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields of activity, from entertainment to technology. first of all, it seems that tv channels will have disappeared by 2050. instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. by 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us by computer. in what concerns the environment, water will have become one of our most serious problems. demand for water will increase ten times between now and 2050 and there could be serious shortages. some futurologists predict that water could be the cause of war if we dont act now. in transport, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. cars will have computers to control the speed of the car and there wont be any accidents. today, many cars have computers that tell the drivers exactly where they are. by 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. in the field of technology, robots will have replaced people in factories. many factories already use robots. big companies prefer robots they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. by 2050, we will see robots everywhere in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.last but not least, medicine technology will have conquered many diseases. today scientists have discovered how to control genes. they have already produced clones of animals. by 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. scientists will be able to do these things but should they?56. we can know from the passage that_. a. computer will finally take the place of the media nowadays b. robots will completely have replaced people in factories c. computers will tell drivers exactly where they are in the future d. it is more convenient to choose programes sent by the computer57. whats the authors attitude towards the life by 2050?a. excited but pessimistic b. optimistic but worriedc. eager but afraid d. confident but cautious58. it can be inferred from the last paragraph that_. a. all diseases will not be conquered by scientists b. scientists have known the way to produce genes c. the clones of human are understood by scientists d. the clones of animals have a long way to gobaustralian sleep researchers have developed a set of hi-tech “sunglasses”, described as the worlds first “time control” glasses, which can imitate sunlight patterns. the team, from flinders university, in adelaide, says the glasses send out a soft green glow that helps a traveller adapt to changing sleep patterns and time zones in “small steps”. it targets a part of the brain that regulates the human body-clock, by sending signals to the rest of the body that help it slowly realise it is in a different area of the world. it has been suggested the device, called the “re-timer”, is currently the only wearable body clock adjustment system commercially available.scientists say the device, officially launched in south australia, can help ridf the negative effects of long-timel travel and bring new relief to insomnia(失眠) sufferers, shift workers and even teenagers.“the light from re-timer stimulates the part of the brain responsible for regulating the 24-hour body clock,” said prof leon lack, its chief inventor.extensive research has shown that green light is one of the most effective wavelengths(波长) for influencing the body clock.the battery-powered device, which retail for 162 in britain, then sends signals that cause the production of hormones and daily cycles known as circadian rhythms（生理节奏）.those people who want to sleep peacefully, but wake earlier, should wear it for 50 minutes in the morning for three days. those who want a lie- in, should wear it for the same time before bed to delay the body clock. the device, which is powered by an inbuilt rechargeable battery, can also be worn as sunglasses during daily tasks such as reading or using a computer.the glasses have been designed to be user friendly and comfortable to wear so people can go about their normal activities wearing them at work or at home,” he said, adding they had been designed based on 25 years of university research.it is estimated that up to 94 per cent of long-time travellers suffer from jet lag because the body becomes confused to travelling through different time zones. so the glasses are good news to them. it uses the outside world as indicators as to whether it should be awake or asleep including factors such as light, silence or noise.airlines are said to be seeking a “silver bullet” for the tiredness and confusion that often follow a long-timel flight and are in discussions to buy the device.59. the “time control” glasses work by_. a. getting rid of green light b. creating a quiet environment c. receiving real-time signals d. motivating part of the brain60. what can we learn about the “re-timer” from the passage? a. it is a new way to cure insomnia b. it can only be powered by battery c. it can be used by several groups of people d. it is specially designed for flight passengers.61. if you wear a “re-timer” an hour before bed, you will probably_. a. wake up earlier than usual b. spend a longer bed time c. sleep less but feel energetic d. have a sleep without dreams62. the underlined part “silver bullet” refers to_. a. a scientific explanation b. a kind of perfect sunglasses c. a wonderful solution d. an effective security systemci had thus learned a second fact of great importance: this was that the planet the little prince came from was scarcely any larger than a house!but that did not really surprise me much. i knew very well that in addition to the great planets- such as the earth, jupiter, mars, venus- to which we have given names, there are also hundreds of others, some of which are so small that one has a hard time seeing them through the telescope. when an astronomer discovers one of these he does not give it a name, but only a number. he might call it, for example, asteroid 325. i have serious reason to believe that the planet from which the little prince came is the asteroid known as b-612. this asteroid has only once been seen through the telescope. that was by a turkish astronomer, in 1909. on making his discovery, the astronomer had presented it to the international astronomical congress, in a great demonstration(论证). but he was in turkish costume, and so nobody would believe what he said.grown-ups are like that. fortunately, however, for the reputation of asteroid b-612, a turkish dictator(独裁者) made a law that his subjects(臣民) should change to european costume under pain of death (违者格杀勿论).so in 1920 the astronomer gave his demonstration all over again, dressed with impressive style and elegance. and this time everybody accepted his report. if i have told you these details about the asteroid, and made a note of its number for you, it is for the grown-ups and their ways. when you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essential matters. they never say to you, what does his voice sound like? what games does he love best? does he collect butterflies? instead, they demand: how old is he? how many brothers has he? how much money does his father make? if you were to say to the grown-ups: i saw a beautiful house made of rosy brick, with geraniums in the windows and doves on the roof, they would not be able to get any idea of that house at all. you would have to say to them: i saw a house that cost $20,000. then they would cry out: oh, what a pretty house that is! _, if you say to them: the proof that the little prince existed is that he was charming, that he laughed, and that he was looking for a sheep.” and what good would it do to tell them that? they would shrug their shoulders,
