if you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology. 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 disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories. 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 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 onin 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.25. according to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by _.aaccidents and aging baccidents and warcdiseases and aging dheart disease and war26. in the authors opinion，todays most important advance in technology lies in _.abrain cells bthe internet cmedicine dhuman organs27. humans may live longer in the future because _.aheart disease will be far away from usbhuman brains can decide the final deathcthe basic materials of cells will last foreverdhuman organs can be repaired by new medicine28. how long can humans live in the future according to the passage?aover 100 years. bmore than 120 years.cabout 150 years. dthe passage doesnt tell us.cin the 1960s professor bolin predicted that the “greenhouse effect”, caused by an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide (co2)in the atmosphere, would lead to important changes in the earths climate. at the time his prediction was regarded as science fiction. but it is now gradually agreed that the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will double from 0.03% to 0.06% in the next 50 years and that temperatures worldwide will rise by 2. although a temprerature rise of 2 may not seem significant, the local effects may be much greater: in polar regions a rise of 10 by 2025 is expected and in northern europe a rise of 4. indeed the first effects were expected to be felt before the end of the 20th century. but how does the “greenhouse effect” operate and why should such a tiny proportion(比例) of co2 have such a harmful effect? when living creatures breathe out or when things are burned, co2 enters the atmosphere. until recently all of this was absorbed by plants. which converted（转化）it back into oxygen.however, the balance of nature has been disturbed. in power stations, in factories and in our cars, we are burning more and more fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and this produces huge quantities of co2-18 billion tons of it enter the atmosphere every year. added to this . the destructed into oxygen by plants. so the amount of co2 in the atmosphere is increasing every year.29. which of the following statement is true according to the passage? a. professor bolins prediction was taken seriously in the first place. b. only a small portion of the atmosphere consists of carbon dioxide. c. no changes in climate will become noticeable for 50 years or more. d. the rise in temperature will probably be 2 degrees in every part of the world.30. the amount of co2 in the atmosphere is increasing every year because _. a. carbon dioxide is produced when we breathe b. carbon dioxide is produced when we burn things c. more forests are destroyed and more fossil fuels are burned d. the global temperature keeps rising31. the “greenhouse effect” refer to _. a. the problem of the rising global temperature b. the problem of increasing population world wide c. the problem of decreasing population worldwide d. the problem of air pollution32. the underlined word “operate” in the third paragraph most probably means “_”. a. play b. move c. manage d. functiond i chose to study in madrid because i had a desire to learn spanish. my first impressions of madrid were incredible. it was before the new year that i arrived in madrid for the first time. while traveling to my spanish friends house in a taxi, i appreciated the buildings along the road which were different from those of my own country. there are an incredible number of restaurants and bars from all over the world. if you are really into sightseeing, i hope you have rechargeable batteries for your digital camera, because one week really isnt enough time to see everything here including a number of art, science, and historical museums as well as parks, buildings, and amazing landscapes. what i liked best about life in madrid was the fact that if you were frustrated with schoolwork and wanted to have some fun, you can easily go out. the nightlife never seems to stop and the people are all very friendly. you can meet people and practice spanish while having fun at the same time. what i liked least was the fact that many people smoked in the streets. also, coming from the us, i was used to having a big breakfast every morning, but while living with an actual spanish family, i wasnt really satisfied with the food in the morning. i think i have definitely become more independent since i came back from spain. living in a big city like madrid, i found that it is necessary to plan ahead and to just in the spanish world, but in the european world as well.33. whats the purpose of the text?
