38、everyone.”At the front of the supermarket a charity group had set up a stand selling fish and chips and flowers to raise funds.

Youre not even

51、 the same personyou were five years ago. We dont just mean your personality. While wed love tostart a never-ending discussion over the “true self”，were here to talk about thecells（细胞）in your body.Do you know how your fingernails and hair are constantly growing and replacingthemselves? The same thing

52、 happens almost everywhere in your body. Your outerlayer of skin makes way for fresher skin, and inside your veins（血管），blood cells turn over to make wayfor fresh blood. Its probably no surprise that these types of cells are short-lived, even some of the mostseemingly permanent（永久的）parts of your body

53、 replace themselves over time-including your bones.Strong as your bones might seem, the cells theyre made of wont last a lifetime. Bones are masters at rebuilding themselves, which is why most broken bones can heal on their own into the right shape.Bones have special cells called osteoclasts（破骨细胞）wh

54、ose job is to break down bone, even if itisnt broken, and send the minerals into the blood stream. This may sound frighteningly like your bonesare wearing away, but your body knows what its doing. As osteoclasts break down bone, osteoblasts（成骨细胞）build up new bone to replace the old. By the end of ea

55、ch year, about 10 percent of yourentire adult skeleton will have been rebuilt through this process.If 10 percent of your bone breaks down every year, it must take about ten years to renew 100percent of your skeleton. That would be a great guess, and it lines up nicely with the medical myth thatthe h

56、uman bodys cells are fully replaced every seven years, but the body is a bit more complex. That10 percent is just an average-some bone grows faster than that, and some grows slower. While someparts of your bone will turn over quickly, other parts will stick around for decades. In fact, most bonecell

57、s could live as long as 50 years.So before you get wrapped up in an identity crisis（危机）about the cells in your body disappearingon you, know that you can lose some hair and you can cut your nails, but the bones of you arent goinganywhere-at least not very soon and not all at once.1Which of the follo

58、wing is TRUE according to the passage?AAll the cells in our body are the same ones that we were born with.BOur blood cells are constantly growing and replacing themselves.CIt must take about 10 years to rebuild 100 percent of our skeleton.DOsteoblasts can break down skin and also rebuild it over time.2The underlined words wearing away probably mean“”Abuilding upBtaking offCdying outDturning on3What does the passage mainly talk about?AOur skeleton seems permanent but renews itself over time.BIt is not surprising that some ce
