27、ances in technology have helped more of the worlds population live better and longer, and that is part of our problems Better health standards have kept larger number of people alive. The worlds population is now almost four billion and expected to double in 25 years. Growing population and slowly r

28、ising living standards have increased our need for food at the rate of 30 million tons per year. As a result, the worlds stockpile of food(食物储备 ) is declining by about 10 million tons per year. From the early 1950s until 1972 , world food production increased greatly. The Green Revolution (绿色革命 ) ex

29、tended scientific techniques to agriculture in the form of hybrid seed (杂交种 )and poultry (禽类 ), chemical fertilizers (化学肥料 ) and pesticides (杀虫剂 ), and complex irrigation systems.

Milk production rose to 10, 000 pounds per cow per year, compared with 600 in India. Chickens were bred

31、 to eat less, grow to maturity in shorter time, and produce more eggs. As a result of such scientific advances, our twelve midwestern states alone now feed one fourth of the worlds people.

32、om the use of chemical fertilizers, primarily petroleum based and now in short supply. The drop in world supplies of petroleum-based fertilizers is expected to cause a drop in crop yields of ten tons for each one ton decline in fertilizers applied. This presents a particular problem for underdevelop

33、ed nations that often lack the foreign exchange necessary for buying fertilizer.

38、f you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding by a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercises, and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise health

39、y farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and v

40、arying occupations. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurement of the volumes of the front and side sections of the brain, which are related to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eatin

41、g and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties.) Contraction of front and side part-as cells die off-was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty and seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa conc

42、luded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age: using the head. The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by

43、 university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant. Matsuzawas findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate prop

44、erly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is using the brain, “ he says. “Think hard and engage in conversation. Dont rely on pocket calculators. “ 36 The team of doctors wanted to find out_. （ A） why certain people age sooner

45、than others （ B） how to make people live longer （ C） the size of certain peoples brains （ D） which people are most intelligent 37 On what are their research findings based? （ A） A survey of farmers in northern Japan. （ B） Tests preformed on a thousand old people. （ C） The study of brain volumes of d

46、ifferent people. （ D） The latest development of computer technology. 38 The doctors tests show that （ A） our brains shrink as we grow older （ B） the front section of the brain does not shrink （ C） sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds （ D） some peoples brains have contracted more

47、than other peoples 39 The word “subjects“ in paragraph 5 means_. （ A） something to be considered （ B） branches of knowledge studied （ C） people chosen to be studied in an experiment （ D） any member of state except the supreme ruler 40 According to the passage , which people seem to age slower than t

48、he others? （ A） Lawyers. （ B） Farmers. （ C） Clerks. （ D） Shop assistants. 40 Babies Response For some time in the past it has been widely accepted that babies, and other creatures learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards“: and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it als

49、o used to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological(生理的 ) “drives“ as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise. It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome
