He was eager to learn all his life. Many people have the mistaken idea that age is a handicap (障碍) when it comes to learning that you gradually lose your ability to learn as you grow older. Surveys show that the ability to learn does not diminish greatly after 20, said Dr. C. Ellis Nelson, a well-known professor in Texas. These tests show, said Dr. Nelson, that in terms of reading and vocabulary there is no significant difference between being 20 or being 60. People aged 20 may show greater facility （设施；设备） for mathematics, but this is due almost entirely to the fact that 20-year-olds use math all the time, while 60-year-olds dont. As you grow older, or if you have already reached or passed middle age, dont fool yourself with the idea that the ability to learn diminishes with age. It just isnt true! You can learn and grow intellectually (智力地) as long as you want to progress and you can continue to do so as long as you are alive. That is one of the truly exciting facts of life. Cato, a wise man of ancient Rome, was forever seeking new intellectual worlds to conquer, and at about 80 he started to study Greek. When a doubter asked him why he was beginning such a difficult task at such an advanced age, Cato replied calmly and firmly: It is the youngest age I have left. I enjoy it. and went on with his studies. In the end, he reached his goal. Age, said E. L. Thorndike, a famous psychologist, is not a handicap to learning. You never grow too old to learn.56. Theodore Roosevelt didnt stop learning at fifty because_. A he felt he was usefulB. he was encouraged by his great commentC. he believed he was never too old to learn D. he wanted to show his value to the community 57. 20-year-old people show greater facility for mathematics than 60-year-old people because _. A. they are better educated than the latterB. they like maths more than the latterC. they use maths more often than the latter D. theyre required to learn more maths skills than the latter58. The underlined word diminish in the second paragraph probably means_. A. become smaller or weaker B. grow little by littleC. increase D. disappear BFirst aid should be a compulsory(必修的) part of study, St. John Ambulance has urged ministers. The charity carried out a survey of more than 1,500 school children, of whom seven out of ten said they would not know how to help in an emergency. First aid is a compulsory subject for Welsh and Northern Irish pupils, but in English and Scottish schools it is an optional (可选择的) part of the curriculum. The government said that it intended to bring England into line by 2011. An estimated 400,000 young people are injured each year at school, according to the first aid charity. Its survey suggested that almost the same proportion (比例) of primary and secondary school children who said they would not know how to help someone in need of first aid would like to learn. The British Red Cross also argues that all schools should teach first aid, because the UK falls behind the rest of Europe when it comes to life-saving skills. According to the charity, some 80% of people in Scandinavian countries and Germany have first aid skills, compared with 7% in the UK. The British Red Cross also estimates that of the 5.5 million people who visit Emergency Departments for Accidents each year, about 3 million suffer from injuries that would benefit from some form of first aid treatment. Elaine Howlings, who co-ordinates school training for St. John Ambulance, said the overwhelming (压倒性的；势不可挡的) message from the survey was that the children surveyed were scared by the fact that they would not know what to do in an emergency. She said: They wanted to be able to help helping their friends when they fell off walls or helping people that had been involved in car accidents.59. According to the survey, _. A. England will make first aid compulsory in school in 2011B. all the students without first aid skills would like to learn themC. about 1,000 children surveyed dont know how to do first aidD. more secondary school students want to learn first aid than the primary school ones60. Why does the British Red Cross think that all schools should teach first aid?A. First aid can save lives in a lot of situations.B. People are eager to learn life-saving skills.C. About 400,000 young people are injured each year at school. D. The UK is far behind in life-saving skills in Europe.61. What can be inferred from the passage? A. St. John Ambulance is a famous hospital.B. 5.5 million people suffer from injuries each year.C. First aid must be taught in Scottish schools.D. The survey is a good warning to urge students to learn first aid.62. What would be the best title for the passage? A. St. John Ambulance Carried Out a SurveyB. First Aid Is Quite ImportantC. Call For First Aid in School SubjectD. People in the UK Had No First Aid SkillsCCheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, its not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesnt solve the problem of not knowing the material and it wont help on the next test - unless the person cheats again.Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.Some kids cheat because theyre busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they cant pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isnt a good idea.If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldnt study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you dont have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解决办法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.63. The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, _.A. it is unfair to other peopleB. it does harm to their healthC. teachers should punish themD. teachers shouldnt stop them at once64. Some students like cheating mainly because_.A. the material in the test is very difficultB. They think cheating is a proud thingC. they have little time to study their lessons D. they want to get good grades without spending the time studying65. We can learn from the passage_.A. cheaters are often thought highly ofB. people show no respect for those who cheatC. parents whose kids cheat are often in troubleD. kids cheat in the test because of swim practice66. In the passage those cheaters are advised to_.A. spend more time on school than on sportsB. find good solutions instead of cheatingC. try hard to be intelligent rather than lazyD. ask their classmates for good methods of studyDNOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares. Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce or possibly erase(抹去) the effect of painful memories. In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased. The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. Some memories can ruin peoples lives . They come back to you when you dont want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions, said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. This could relieve a lot of that suffering. But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. Im not sure we want to wipe those memories out, said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist. 67. The passage is mainly about_. . A. a new medical invention B. a new research on the pill C. a way of erasing painful memories D. an argument about the research on the pill 68. In November, the drug tested on people can_. . A. cause the brain to fix memories B. stop people remembering bad experiences C. prevent body producing certain chemicals that fix memories in the brain D. wipe out the emotional effects of memories69. We can infer from the passage that_. . A.
