Can people in middle age and beyond expect to think as effectively and to solve problems as efficiently as they have in the past?One

28、 of the difficulties in comparing the intellectual functioning of people at different ages is the problem of cohort(具有相同特征的)一群人) effects. Different age groups in the population have experienced different historical events (wars, exposure to television, and so on) as well as changes in the general st

29、andard of living. Different scores that people of varying ages achieve on intelligence tests could be partly due to changes in diet, housing, or health care or, even more likely, to the amount and quality of education. Since the beginning of this century, there has been a trend for more people to go

30、 to school and to remain in school longer. Because it eliminates these cohort effects, a longevous (长寿的) study may be the best way to look at age-related changes in intellectual functioning.One of the few longevous studies of intellectual functioning is the Seattle Longevous Study, conducted by K. W

31、arner Schaie and his associates. The original subjects, who ranged in age from 18 to 67, have now been tested 4 times over a 21 year period. These results have given a reasonably good picture of longitudinal(纵向的) change in cognitive abilities.The data show that there are only trivial changes in the

32、kinds of abilities measured by intelligence tests before the age of 60, and no reliable decrease can be shown in these abilities before age 74. Although there is some decrease in measured ability in the late 60s and the 70s, it is not until age 81 that the average person falls below the middle range

33、 of performance for young adults.The data from the Seattle Longevous Study also suggest that there are very great individual differences in intellectual change throughout adulthood. Between the ages of 74 and 81, less than half the subjects showed any significant change. One important factor is heal

34、th, especially the presence or absence of coronary(冠状) heart disease. Another is a high socioeconomic status, which is related not only to higher initial levels of functioning but to the maintenance of a higher level throughout life.A flexible life style in middle age, probably associated with a fle

35、xible personality style, also tends to predict high performance in old age. While some of these variables may have substantial hereditary (遗传的) elements, changes in environment and education could also be important in maintaining a higher level of functioning for many individuals.（分数：8.00）(1).Compar

36、ing the intellectual functioning of different age groups of people is a tough job because of the changes in _.（分数：2.00）A.individual experiencesB.general standard of livingC.diet, housing, or health careD.many variables(2).The result of the Seattle Longevous Study shows that _.（分数：2.00）A.peoples abil

37、ities change slightly before they reach the age of 60B.there seems to be a decline in the abilities before age 74C.there will be little increase in measured ability at the ageof 81D.there is a great decrease in the abilities in the late 60s and the 70s(3).Which of the following statements is NOT tru

38、e according to the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Keeping higher levels of functioning throughout adulthood can guarantee high performance in old age.B.Coronary heart disease can change cognitive abilities greatly.C.All the people have more or less the same intellectual change over the tire span.D.Changes in en

39、vironment can affect the intellectual functioning for many people.(4).The title of this passage might be _.（分数：2.00）A.Cognitive Changes over the Life SpanB.Peoples Intellectual FunctioningC.Cohort Effects in the Intelligence TestsD.Longevous Study of Cognitive AbilitiesBPassage Two/BIn July 1994, th

40、e comet(彗星) Shoemaker-Levy 9 smashed into the planet Jupiter. For the first time, humans were able to witness exactly what happens when a celestial(天空的) body collides with a planet and it quickly became clear that survival was no longer entirely a question of being the “fittest“. A new factor had be

41、en introduced into evolution: the ability to survive a collision between the earth and an asteroid (小行星) or comet.To most people, the risk remains academic. With all the dangers humans face - sickness, accidents- it is understandable that people dont take seriously the risks posed by something that

42、hasnt happened for 65 million years and may not happen for another 65 million years.However, many scientists believe that collisions between the earth and celestial bodies cannot be regarded as “just another risk“. The main reason for this is that no other disaster - except perhaps a nuclear war - h

43、as the potential to destroy human civilization completely. Even the worst floods and earthquakes affect only a very small percentage of the earths surface and population. But the effects of an impact caused by a celestial body of just ten kilometers in diameter would make humans extinct, along with

44、most of the worlds other animals and plants.The danger comes from asteroids and comets which cross the earths orbit. Asteroids pose a greater danger because they are more numerous. Those less than 100 meters in diameter are not usually regarded as a threat bemuse most are destroyed by heat as they e

45、nter the earths atmosphere and so never reach the ground. It is those asteroids with diameters of one kilometer or more which pose the greatest threat.（分数：8.00）(1).The main topic of this passage is _.（分数：2.00）A.several factors influencing evolutionB.natural disasters in the worldC.danger of the eart

46、h colliding with heavenly bodiesD.collision between Jupiter and a comet(2).The probable result of the earth being hit by an object 10 kilometers in diameter from outer space is _.（分数：2.00）A.extinction of the human raceB.extinction of most species on earthC.extinction of animalsD.extinction of plants

47、(3).Compared with comets, asteroids are a major threat to the earth because _.（分数：2.00）A.they are larger in sizeB.they are closer to the earthC.they are larger in numberD.they are easier to change their orbits(4).According to the passage, asteroids which can do real harm to the earth are _.（分数：2.00）
