She took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at age 114, and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday.When it comes to long life. Jeanne Calment is the world's recordholder. She lived to the ripe old age of 122. So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span(寿命)? If scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would slow aging, could we possibly make it to 150or beyond? Researchers don't entirely agree on the answers. "Calment lived to 122, so it wouldn't surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135, "says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas. Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees. "People can live much longer than we think, "he says. "Experts used to say that humans couldn't live past 110. When Calment blewpast that age, they raised the number to 120. So why can't we go higher?" The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that it's all just guessing. "Anyone can make up a number," says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan. "Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in Time magazine." Won't new anti-aging techniques keep us alive for centu ries? Any cure, says Miller, for aging would probably keep most of us kicking until about 120. Researchers are working on treatments that lengthen the life span of mice by 50 percent at most. So, if the average human life span is about 80 years, says Miller, "adding another 50 percent would get you to 120." So what can we conclude from this little disagreement a mong the researchers? That life span is flexible (有弹性的) but there is a limit, says George Martin of the University of says. "But a fly's never going to live 150 years. 'Of course, if you became a new species(物种) , one that ages at a slower speed, that would be a different story, he adds. Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve (进化) their way to longer life? "it's pretty cool to think about," he says with a smile. 1. What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove to us? A. People can live to 122. B. Old people are creative. C. Women are sporty at 85. D. Women live longer than men. 答案: A 指导：第二段中“She lived to the ripeoldage of l22So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span?"告诉我们Jeanne Calment的经历证明人们可以活到122岁。2. According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas,_. A. the average human life span could be 110 B. scientists cannot find ways to slow aging C. few people can expect to live to over 150 D. researchers are not sure how long people can live 答案: D 指导：根据第四段Steve Austad的论述可判断出研究人员不能确定人们的寿命有多长。3. Who would agree that a scientist will become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity? A. Jerry Shay. B. Steve Austad. C. Rich Miller. D. George Martin. 答案: C指导：第五段"Anyone can make up anumber，says Rich Miller at the University Of Michigan。“Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gest his nalne in Time magazine说明RichMiller认为对人类的寿命估计最高的科学家会知名。4. What can we infer from the last three paragraphs? A. Most of us could be good at sports even at 120. B. The average human life span cannot be doubled. C. Scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before. D. New techniques could be used to change flies into a new species.

There are many advantages for the social science major because this high-tech "Information Age" demands people who are lexible(灵活) and who have good communication skills. There are many social science majors in large companies who fill important positions. For example, a number of re- search studies found that social science majors bad achieved greater managerial success than those how had technical train- lng or pre-professional courses; Studies show that social science majors are most suited for change, which is the leading featured (特点) of the kind of high-speed, high-pressure, high-tech world we now live in. Social science majors are not only experiencing success in their long term company jobs, but they are also finding jobs more easily. A study showed that many companies had filled a large percentage of their entry level positions with social science graduates. The study also showed that the most sought-after quality in a person who was looking for a job was communica- tion skills, noted as "very important" by 92 percent of the companies. Social science majors have these skills, of ten without knowing how important they are. It is probably due to these skills that they have been offered a wide variety of positions.Finally, although some social science majors may still find it more difficult than their technically trained classmates to land the first job, recent graduates report that they don't regret their choice of study. 1. By saying that" you may have had the last laugh" in the first paragraph, the author means that you may have_. A. shared the jokes with computer majors B. earned as much as computer majors C. found jobs more easily than computer majors D. stopped joking about computer majors 答案: C 指导：这是一道推断作者意图题。从第一段"Thereare many advantages for the social science major可知，灵活和好的交际技巧在“信息社会中是十分重要的，所以学习社会科学的毕业生比学习计算机的毕业生可能更容易找到工作。2. Compared with graduates of other subjects, social science graduates_. A. are ready to change when situations change B. are better able to deal with difficulties C. are equally good at computer skills D. are likely to give others pressure 答案: A 指导：这是一道细节推断题。根据第二段中“Studies show that social science maiors are可判断出与其他专业的毕业生相比，社会科学的毕业生在形势改变时，他们更乐意改变。3. The underlined word "land" in the last paragraph probably means_. A. keep for some time B. successfully get C. immediately start D. lose regretfully 答案: B 指导：这是一道猜义题。根据land后的宾语the first job 可判断出它的意思是“成功地获得。4. According to the text, what has made it easy for social science graduates to find jobs? A. Willingness to take low-paid jobs. B. Readiness to gain high-tech knowledge. C. Skills in expressing themselves. D. Part-time work experience. Passage 答案: C 指导：这是一道细节推断题。根据第三段中"Thestudy also showed that可得出结论，社会科学毕业生的善于表现自己的技巧使他们容易找到工作。 Passage 4It's not the flashiest car in the world. Not even close. But the 1971 Volkswagen named Helios can do something most cars can't: nm on solar energyenergy from the sun's light and heat ! Joshua Bechtold, 14. and the other students at the Riverside School in Lyndonville, Vermont, worked many months to get Helios ready for the 1999 American Tour de Sol("Sol" is the Latin word for "sun"). They named their car after Helios, the sun god in Greek mythology(神话) . The 4-year-old Tour de SOl encourages the use of "green", or environmentally friendly, cars to help reduce pollution and save energy. It's not a race. Cars are judged on fuel efficiency (耗油量) rather than speed. In the week-long event, 44 cars took the 350-mile tour from Waterbury, Connecticut, to Lake George, New York. Of the 23 student cars, Helios was the on- ly one built by middle school students. A teacher drove Helios, but the children talked with people wherever they stopped along the road "That was my favor- ite part. "says Anna Browne, 15. "We explained how the car runs." Due in part to old, inefficient batteries (电池), Helios finished fourth out of four in its kind, the sun-powered class. "We were there for the fun of it. "Anna says. "We're proud of Helios, ' says Ariel Gleicher, 14. "It's a car that's good for the environment." 1. What is special about the car Helios in the text? A. It was built by middle school students. B. It has an attractive design. C. It was made in 1971. D. It won the fourth prize. 答案: A 指导：这是一道细节推断题。根据第三段最后一句Helios was the only one built by middle school students可以推断选A.2. How many sun-powered cars took part in the race? A. 1. B. 4. C. 23. D. 44. 答案: B 指导：这是一道细节推断题两太阳能赛车参赛。根据最后一段第一句outoffour可以推断一共有4辆太阳能赛车参赛。3. What would be the best title for the text? A. The Making of Helios B. 1999 American Tour de sol C. Sun-powered Cars on the Road D. Use of Green Cars in Connecticut 答案: C 指导；这是一道主旨题。这篇文章主要讲几个生制造的太阳能赛车上路参加比赛的事，所以最好的题目是Sun powered Cars on the Road4. The students felt proud of Helios because_. A. it could run as far as 350 miles B. it was favored by many children C. it had high-quality batteries D. it was driven by clean energy Passage答案: D指导：这是一道细节推断题。根据最后一句It's a car that's good for the environment，即是由绿色能源驱动的。 Passage 5 When Lewis and Clark stepped onto the Weippe Prairie in present-day Idaho in September 18典型例题y met the Nez Perce Indians. In the following years, the white explorers (探险者) began fight with the Indians or their land. Some Nez Perce chiefs signed agreements with the U. S. government, selling part of their lands. But the government always broke those a- greements and demanded more land.Other chiefs refused to go along with the government's plans. The most famous was Chief Joseph, whose people lived in the Wallowa Valley (present-day Oregon). "In order to have all people understand how much land we owned," he once explained, "my father planted poles around it and said. ' Inside is the home of my people . It circl ed aroundthe graves (坟墓) of our fathers, and we will never give up these graves to any man. ' But in 1874, the U. S. government declared the valley open for white settlement and ordered the Nez Perce onto a res- ervation(保存地). Seeing that resistance was useless. Chief Jo seph agreed to move.Later, fighting broke out between the Nez Perce and U. S. soldiers. Chief Joseph tried to lead his people to Canada, winning several battles against the soldiers during their flight. But finally, he was forced to give in. 1. Which historic site (on the map) lies in the south of today's Nez Perce Reservation? A. Buffalo Eddy. B. Dug Bar. C. Joseph Canyon Viewpoint. D. Chief Looking Glass Camp. 答案: D 指导：此题为识图题。首先要审清题目，注意题干中的关键词historic site，in the south，然后再观察地图及图例，很容易判断D项为正确答案。2. What can we learn about the Nez Perce lands from the map? A. They were in the state of Oregon. B. They have become a historic site C. They have become much smaller. D. They were limited to the wallowa Valley. 答案: C 指导：根据地图中图例局部第一项、第二项，可以看出1855年Nez Perce lands的范围比当今Nez Perce Reservation的范围要大得多。由此可判断C项为正确答案。3. From Paragraph 3, we know that the Indians wanted to_. A. show oft their land B. keep their land C. turn their place into a graveyard D. build their homes around the poles答案: B 指导：本段引述了NezPerce人的某一头领Joseph的话，他说到，“为了让所有的人明白我们过去拥有多少土地，我父亲在领地周围种了些植物作为标志，并且说标志里就是我们的家园由此可以看出那些印第安人的目的就是要维护自己的土地。 (典型例题测试)Rules for the University Entrance Examination You must be at the examination ceter ten miutes before the examination starts.
