simple thing like “i was wrong about that ,”and it is even harder to say, “i was wrong, and you were right about that.”i had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago .he told me he had been the manager of a cartons (纸箱).then he talked of an incident and i began to remember the incident he was describing. i was about eight years old at the time, and i had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. on that particular day, i must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place.there must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was a big show of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons. the cartons were put three or four feet high. i must have stopped in front of them to admire the show. just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the pile of cartons. for some reason, i decided it was up to me to put the cartons back together, so i went to work.the manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. when he appeared, i was on my knees checking some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as if i was the person who was to blame .he severely reprimanded and wanted me to pay for those broken eggs. my face turned red and i tried to explain, but it did no good. even though i quickly forgot the incident, but the manager did not.51.how old was the author when he wrote this article?a. about 8 years old b. about 18 years old c. about 23 years old d. about 15 years old 52. according

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 discussion 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 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 (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. it 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. 56. according to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _. a. accidents and war b. diseases and agingc. accidents and aging d. heart diseases and war57. in the authors

in the future.59. humans may live longer in the future because _. a. heart disease will be far away from usb. human brains can decide the final deathc. the basic materials of cells will last foreverd. human organs can be repaired by new medicine60. we can learn from the passage that _. a. human life will not last more than 120 years in the futureb. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowc. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifed. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells. section two matching (10
