10、Valentine who was a priest(牧师 ) in the third century Rome. When the emperor (皇帝 ) decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives, he didnt allow marriage. But Valentine continued to perform marriage ceremonies for young lovers in secret. When his actions were discovered,

18、ure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time. Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, s

19、o we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity(容量 ). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need our brains m

20、ore and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over lon

21、g period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger. On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life. But wha

22、t about hair This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald. Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at!

23、This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and motions similar to our own. 【小题 1】 The passage mainly tells us that _. A Mans life will be different in the future B Future man wi

24、ll look quite different from us C Man is growing taller and uglier as time passes D Mans organs functions will change 【小题 2】 What serves as the evidence that man is changing A Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had. B Mans hair is getting thinner and thinner. C Mans arms and legs have become

25、 lighter and weaker. D Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years. 【小题 3】 The change in mans size of the forehead is probably because _.

A human beings will become less attractive in the future B body organs will become poorer if they are not used often C human beings hope for a change in the future life D future life is always predictable 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 D 【小题 3】

28、C 【小题 4】 A 【小题 5】 B 【小题 1】全文理解题。本文主要介绍未来人类的外貌。 A未来的生活，与中心思想不符。 C 不具备概括性。 D 器官功能衰退不能概括未来人类身体的变化。 【小题 2】细节理解。人类外貌逐渐变化的依据。见第二段第二句 “man， even five hundred years ago was shorter than he is today.” ABC均为人类未来的变化趋势而不是人类变化的证据。 【小题 3】细节理解题。 第二段最后两句说人类将更多地使用大脑，最终大脑变大，前额增大。 【小题 4】细节理解题。第二段指出人类的头发可能会消失，因为 “it do

29、es not serve a useful purpose any longer”， 即头发失去作用。第三段讲人类将大量用手指，手指变得灵活敏感，所以 C错误。 D与后一段不符。 【小题 5】推论题。从人类身体变化可以看出，经常使用的器官部位，如大脑手指 将变得发达。而不常用的器官会退化。 A原文已经直接提到，不能算作推论 If you have to miss a meal a day, which meal will cause you fewest health problems if you dont eat it If you have to make a decision of t

34、 breakfast is inadequate. The study also showed that contrary to what people believe, if you skip breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry if they skip breakfast that they eat too much for lunch and end up gaining weight instead of losing. So remember, if you want

It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, t

43、hen life is no longer difficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain(抱怨 ) about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy.

44、 even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause sadness, or loneliness(孤独 ) or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And s

45、ince life causes a lot of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we want to encourage the growth of human spirit, we

46、encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.
