16、e distant memories. In discussion of technological changes,the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times.How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells are the basic units of all livin

17、g things,and until recently,scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells,such as those of brain cells,would not last forever.But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine.Sometime between 2050 and 2100,medicine will have ad

18、vanced to the point at which every 10 years or so,people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官).The medicine,made up of the basic building materials of life,will build new brain cells,heart cells,and so onin much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old

19、ones.

23、udy snow for her school science fair in the sixth gradeNow a junior in high school，Erica is in her sixth year of snow experiments，and is well on her way to becoming a snow expertShe started with a basic question：Could snow fences be built to work better? Snow fences are used to keep snowdrifts（雪堆）fr

24、om covering areas like roads of train tracks，or to help build up snow where it can help with water shortages in spring when it melts（融化）“Also，I wanted to protect my animals better from blowing snow，”says Erica，who raises goats，sheep，and pigs Before she could test fence designs，Erica had to figure ou

25、t what would act like real snow in her experiments. “I tested flour, sugar, and salt before I settled on dishwasher powder , ”she explains. Science fairs offer students the chance to test theories, present findings to judges, and meet other researchers. Ericas many achievements include competing at

26、the Discovery Channel Young Scientist Challenge for middle school students and the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, where students from around the world present their science research. But perhaps the best reward is that her research is already being put to good use. She has come up

31、A. Flour. B. Sugar.C. Salt. D. Dishwasher powder. CIf you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise and ,as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily soon. Professor

32、 Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why quite healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be slowed down. With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brains

33、 volumes of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs. Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with thinking and feeling, and decide the human character. As we all know,

34、 the back part of the brain, which controls task like eating and breathing, does not contract (萎缩) with age. Contraction of front and side parts, as cells ( 细胞 ) die off, was seen in some people in their thirties, but it was still not found in some sixty and seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa concluded fr

35、om his tests that there is a simple way to prevent the contractionusing the head. The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those with least possibility, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White-

36、 collar workers doing the same work day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm workers, bus drivers and shop assistants.39. The team of doctors wanted to find out_. A. how to make people live longer B. how to slow down the speed of getting ol

39、ses his brain, the sooner he becomes old DBirds in cites are damaging their health by trying to sing above the noise of urban life.New research shows that male birds are trying to compete against traffic and city sounds.They are now singing louder and at higher frequencies, which could harm their vo

40、cal cords. Some birds are choosing to sing at night instead of during the day. This makes them more open to attack and also creates stress and exhaustion.“The difference between urban and rural birdsong is becoming so big that the two groups could now be unable to communicate. This could lead to inb

41、reeding and a weak gene pool,” said Dr. Sue Anne Zollinger of the university of ST.Andrew.According to Zollinger, a bird group with a small gene pool might adapt less quickly to new diseases and could be wiped out.A study of the dawn chorus found that birds in Berlin sang up to 14 decibels(分贝) loude

42、r than those in the forest. The birds sang loudest on weekday morning.“ By trying to sing over the sound of the city, birds are risking vocal injury,”Said Zollinger. “All this puts the same strain on a birds vocal cord as when a human tries to shout to be heard in a noisy pub-except the birds are do

43、ing it all day, every day,” she said. “Singing under such pressure means birds have less control over the sound they produce. Their sound may lose quality and become more rough-sounding,” said Zollinger, “ This could make them appear less attractive to female birds.”Mark Constantine, author of The S

44、ound Approach to Birding, said,” Birdsong is important for quality of life and has been proved to reduce our blood pressure. When we live in the centre of large, urban areas, we get stressed and its extremely good to have birdsong around us.The impact on humans of birdsong is massive. It harms us, as well as the birds, if their songs become louder and simple.” 43. Some birds in cities now choose to sing at night time because_.A. they want to attract more birds of opposite sexB. they are more likely to be discovered by their familyC. they cant ad
