was，the answer would have been，“she is marat safins younger sister.” she was overshadowed by her wonder brother.but now she has made a name for herself：the world no.1 player in womens tennis.the 22yearold russian overtook serena williams of the us for top ranking on april 20.“before，every place i go，i am marats sister.nothing else，”she told new york times.“i always wanted to be myself，and now finally the results come，and people can know me as dinara safina.”safina has made it to two great event finals，in the 2008 french and in the 2009 australian open，and won a silver medal in the beijing olympic games.clearly，family isnt the only connection safina and her brother share.their dna burns with competitive fire.safina has held the distinction for years of being a hottempered player on court.when he lost his temper，he would smash a racket (球拍)safina is as emotionally explosive as her brother.a headline in the newspaper the australian once described her as “mad as a snake”the sydney morning herald，during the australian open，summed up safinas volatile (不稳定的) emotional state with the headlinesafina goes from basket case to top of the world.its not rare for a family to have two top tennis players.safinas father owns a tennis academy and her mother worked as a coach.“i had no choice but to become a tennis player，but i dont mind being a tennis player，” safina said.from this talented family she is also given one of her best weapons on court，her size.she is 1.82 meters tall and weighs 70kg.but it is hard work that led her to her recent success.“i hope to prove to everyone over the coming months that i deserve the honor of being world no.1，”she said.26what is the passage mainly about?ahow safina came first in womens tennis.bhow the parents taught safina to play tennis.chow her brother helped safina play tennis.dhow safina beat her brother in playing tennis.27which one of the following doesnt contribute to safinas success?aher hard work and strong competitiveness.bher emotional explosion and volatile emotional state.cthe fact that she is 1.82 meters tall and weighs 70kg.dthe fact that her parents are both good tennis players.28which of the following statements is true?aserena williams was topped by safina on ranking list on april 20.bdinara safina was always very confident and eager to succeed.csafina was eager to become a tennis player when she was a child.dmarat safina won the two finals，in the 2008 french and in the 2009 australian open.29what can we infer from the headline “safina goes from basket case to top of the world”？asafina wanted to top the world in tennis when she was a baby in a basket.bafter she won the australian open，dinara safina cried.ctoo nervous at first，safina finally gained confidence and won.dsafina learnt from the basket case and finally came top of the world.30what can we learn from the passage?afamily plays an absolute role in shaping worldrank players.bas long as you have the same size as safina，you are surely to succeed.csafina hasnt been getting along well with her brother for being illtempered.dfine qualities and hard work help to make a top player.btoday it seems that we are always coming up with a new method of treatment for one ailment(轻病) or the other.our vision is something that we tend to take for granted and we never think about what could happen if we do not take care of our eyes.lutein for eyes is a great type of carotenoid that helps to protect the retina(视网膜) of eyes.take a look here and see how agents work for your eyes and which form you need to get it in.getting your eyes checked out on a regular basis is very basic，yet most of us do not see the importance.as you age，your eyes will get weaker and in time you will no longer have the ability to see the difference between shapes and colors that you see.when you take lutein as a supplement or multivitamin(综合维生素剂) you will be getting the eye protection that is needed in this case.multivitamins will work with other natural herbs and agents to fight against eye diseases.one of the most common eye diseases that you are going to run into is macular degeneration(黄斑部变性)and this is typically when the eyesight is gradually lost over a certain period of time.the part of your retinas that helps you see those shapes and see in general will fade and eventually you will not be able to see.lutein for eyes is a great way to get the protection that you need but you must get a multivitamin supplement，because it is one of the most effective ways to proceed.look for lutein and zeaxanthin(玉米黄质) working together within your supplement.these two carotenoidw will work wonders for your eyes when paired up within the same supplement.you can also get your lutein within foods that you eat such as spinach，kale，broccoli and even eggs!31this text mainly tells us_.ahow lutein for eyes worksbhow to protect eyescmultivitamins are necessary for eye protectiondwhat to eat to protect eyes32the writer

gene，called daf16 in worms，was found in many animals and in humans，the finding could open up new ways to affect aging，immunity(免疫力) and resistance in humans，the scientists said.“we wanted to find out how normal aging is being governed by genes and what effect these genes have on other traits，such as immunity，”said robin may of the university of birmingham，who led the study.populations across the world are aging at a surprising pace，bringing potentially big challenges for health and social care systems.a study by danish scientists last year found that half of babies born in the rich world today will live to celebrate their 100th birthdays.scientists are eager to find out how people age to try to develop drugs to help them stay healthier as their lives extend.“what we have found is that things like resistance and aging tend to go hand in hand，”may said in an interview.mays team compared longevity，stress resistance and immunity in four related species of worm.they also looked for differences in the activity of daf16 in each of the four species，and found that they were all quite distinct.may said daf16 was active in most cells in the body and was very similar to a group of human genes called foxo genes，which scientists believe play a role in the aging process.“the fact that subtle(微妙的) differences in daf16 between species seem to have such an impact on aging and health is very interesting and may explain how differences in lifespan and related traits have arisen during evolution，”may said.41in which section may the text appear in a newspaper?aeducation. bscience.centertainment. dculture.42according to may，_.aresistance has a lot to do with agingbfoxo genes can be found in wormscgenes play the same role in different speciesdnew drugs will change the genes in older people43what can we know from the third paragraph?anew ways have been found to affect aging.bbabies in the rich world will all live longer.cpresent social care systems are poorly managed.daging populations are causing more challenges.44from the text we know that daf16_.ais a gene that is only found in wormsbcan make people live longerchas an effect on aging and immunitydhas
