AIt’s 2035．You have a job, a family and you're about40 years old! Welcome to your future life．Getting ready for work，you pause in front of the mirror．“Turn red，”you say．Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red．Tiny preprogrammed electronics(智能电子元件)are rear-ranged in your shirt to change its color．Looking into the mirror，you find it hard to believe you’re 40．You look much younger．With amazing advances in medicine，people in your generation may live to be 150 years old．You’re not even middle-aged! As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl，you hear，“To loseweight，you shouldn’t eat that．”from your shoes．They read the tiny electronic code(电子源码)on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details．You decide to listen to your shoes．“Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appears on the counter as the kitchen checks its food supplies．“Ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter．In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space and very few of them．Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacations．Your best friend even works in space．Handing your children three strawberries each，you add，“The doctor said you need these for space travel．”Thanks to medical advances，vaccination shots(防疫针)are a thing of the past．Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines．With the berries in their mouths，the kids head for the front door．It’s time for you to go to work．Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors．“My office．Autopilot，”you command．Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway．You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper．The latest news downloads and fills the viewer．Looking through the pages，you watch the news as video film rather than read it．56．What changes the color of your shirt?A．The minor．B．The shirt itself．C．The counter．D．The medicine．57．How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal?A．By pouring the breakfast into a bowl．B．By listening to the doctor's advice．C．By testing the food supplies in the kitchen．D．By checking the nutrition details of the food．58．The strawberries the children eat serve as_______A．breakfast B．lunchC．vaccines D．nutrition59．Row is the text organized?A．In order of time．B．In order of frequency．、C．In order of preference．D．In order of importance．BOver the last 70 years，researchers have been studying happy and unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference．Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes．However，of all the factors，wealth and age are the top two．Money can buy a degree of happiness．But once you can afford to feed，clothe and house yourself，each extra dollar makes less and less difference．Researchers find that，on average，wealthier people are happier．But the link between money and happiness is complex．In the past half-century，average income has sharply increased in developed countries，yet happiness levels have remained almost the same．Once your basic needs are met，money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends，neighbors and colleagues．“Dollars buy status，and status makes people feel better，”conclude some experts，which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors，for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs．In a research，Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money，but for friends，family，job，health-rose furthest beyond what they already had，tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap(差距)．Indeed，the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than incomealone．“The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income，”says Michalos．Another factor that has to do with happiness is age．Old age may not be so bad．“Given all the problems of aging，how could the elderly be more satisfied?”asks Professor Laura Carstensen．In one survey，Carstensen interviewed 184 people betweenthe ages of 18 and 94，and asked them to fill out an emotionsquestionnaire．She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people，but negative emotions much less often．Why are old people happier? Some scientists suggest olderpeople may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it，or they’re more realistic about their goals，only setting ones that they know they can achieve．But Carstensen thinks that with time running out，older people have learned to focus on things that make he m happy and let go of those that don’t．“People realize not only what they have，but also that what they have cannot last forever，”she says．“A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of85，for example，may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20．”60．According to the passage，the feeling of happinessA．is determined partly by genesB．increases gradually with ageC．has little to do with wealthD．is measured by desires61．Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs______．A．make them feel much betterB．provide chances to make friendsC．improve their social positionD．satisfy their professional interests62．Aged people are more likely to feel happy becausethey are more__________．A．optimistic B．successfulC．practical D．emotional63．Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel lesshappy if__________．A．the gap between reality and desire is biggerB．they have a stronger desire for friendshipC．their income is below their expectationD．the hope for good health is greaterCResearchers are placing robotic dogs(机器狗)in the homesof lonely old people to determine whether they can improve thequality of life for humans．Alan Beck，an expert in human-animal relationship，and Nancy Edwards，a professor of nursing，are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people’s depression，physical activity，and life satisfaction．“No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active，challenged，or stimulated(刺激)，”Edwards points out．“The problem is how we promote(使……成为现实)that，especially for those without friends or help．A robotic dog could be a solution．”In the study，the robot，called AIBO，is placed for sixweeks in the houses of some old people who live alone．Before placing AIBO in the home，researchers willcollect baseline data for six weeks．These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO．Then，the researchers will review the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner．“I talk to him all the time．and he responds to my voice，”says a seventy-year-old lady．“When I'm watching TV，he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down．He has a mind of his own．”The AIBOs respond to certain orders．The researChers saythey have some advantages over live dogs，especially for old people．Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it．A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns．“At the beginning，it was believed that no one would relateto the robotic dog，because it was metal and not furry，”Becksays．“But it's amazing how quickly we have given up that be-lief．”“Hopefully，down the road，these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper．They will record their masters’ blood pressure，oxygen levels，or heart rhythms．AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimula te older people’s minds．”64．The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to________.A．understand human-animal relationshipB．make lonely old people’s life betterC．find the causes of old people’s lonelinessD．promote the animal-assisted research65．In the research，the old people are asked to_________.A．note the activities of AIBOsB．keep AIBO at home for 12 weeksC．record their feelings and activityD．analyze the collected information66．What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs?A．It is easier to keep at home．B．It can help the disabled people．C．It responds to all the human orders．D．It can watch TV with its owner．67．The author seems to suggest that the future roboticdogs may____________．A．cure certain diseases 、B．keep old people activeC．change people’s beliefsD．1ook more like real dogsDSpace is a dangerous place．not only because of meteors(流星)but also because of rays from the sun and other stars．The Atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth．Light gets through，and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat．Heat，too，makes our environment endurable．Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space，but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off．As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft，if they are inside，do prevent a lot of radiation damage．Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space．The unit of radiation is called“rem”．Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged；the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on．The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage-a person may feel perfectly well，but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged，and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed(畸形的)children or even grandchildren．Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and，during the outward and return journeys，the Apollo crew accumulated a large amount of rems．So far．no dangerous amounts df radiation have been reported，but the Apollo missions have been quite short．We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere，working in a space laboratory．Drugs might help to decrease the damage doneby radiation，but no really effective ones have been found so far．68. According to the first paragraph，the atmosphere isessential to man in that______．A．it protects him against the harmful raysfrom spaceB．it provides sufficient light for plant growthC．it supplies the heat necessary for human survivalD．it screens off the falling meteors69．It can be inferred from the passage that________．A．the Apollo mission was very successfulB．protection from space radiation is no easy jobC．astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildrenD．radiation is not a threat to well-protected spaceexplorers70．The best title for this passage would be_________．A. The Atmosphere and Our EnvironmentB．Research on Radiation.C．Effects of Space RadiationD．Importance of Protection Against Radiation第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题l分，满分l0分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
