What will man be like in the future——in 5000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.
Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.
Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.
But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.
Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.
1. The passage mainly tells us that____.
A. man’s life will be different in the future
B. future man will look quite different from us
C. man is growing taller and uglier as time passes
D. the functions of man’s organs(器官) will function as well as today
2. Which of the following serves as the evidence that man is changing?
A. Man’s hair is getting thinner and thinner.
B. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.
C. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.
D. Man’s arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.
3. The change in man’s size of forehead is probably because__________
A. he makes use of only 20 % of the brain’s capacity.
B. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due（预定的） time.
C. his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.
D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.
4. Which of the following is true about a human being in the future?
A. He thinks and feels in different way.
B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.
C. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.
D. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn’t use them.

A. future life is always predictable（可预测的）
B. human beings hope for a change in the future life
C. human beings will become less attractive in the future

The tradition of birthday parties started in Europe a long time ago. It was feared that evil(邪恶的) spirits were particularly attracted to people on their birthdays. To protect them from harm, friends and family members would come to stay with the birthday person and bring good thoughts and wishes. Giving gifts brought even more good cheer to keep away from the evil spirits. This is how birthday parties began.
The following are some countries’ birthday traditions:
Canada---Putting butter on the nose. In Atlantic Canada, the birthday child’s nose is put butter on for good luck.
China---Noodles for lunch. The birthday child pays respect to his / her parents and receives a gift of money. Friends and relatives are invited to lunch and noodles are served to wish the birthday child a long life.
England---Money cakes. Certain symbolic(象征性的) objects are mixed into the birthday cake as it is being prepared. If your piece of cake has a coin in it, you will be rich.
Ireland---Birthday bump(碰撞). The birthday child is lifted upside down and “ bumped” on the floor for good luck.
Italy---Pulling ears. The child’s ears are pulled as many times as how old he / she is turning.
Japan---New clothes. The birthday child wears new clothes to mark the occasion.
New Zealand---Birthday claps. After the candles are hit, the happy birthday song is sung loudly and often out of tune and then the birthday person receives a clap for each year he / she has been alive and then one for good luck.
The United States---Cake, candles and the birthday song. A cake is made, and candles are put on top based on how old the person is.

Tuvalu is located in the South Pacific. It is tiny and has only nine islands with a population of just 11,000. In 1999, it was the third- poorest country in the world. The islanders earned just $1,000 each year.
But then something unusual happened. Tuvalu received an internet domain (领土) name—the letters “tv”. These letters were very interesting for many companies around the world. A communication company from California offered to buy the domain name “tv” for $40 m. For the Tuvalans this was a very large amount of money. The islanders became very rich.
Because of global warming, and because the islands are only 3m above sea level, Tuvalu will probably become the first country in the world that will disappear under the sea.
You can already see signs of the rising sea on Tuvalu. Some beaches are disappearing and you can see tree roots by the ocean. Cyclones（旋风）used to be very rare but they now appear a few times a year, and the rains that come with the cyclones cause flooding. Despite these problems, the Tuvalans had their new money. They could use it to buy themselves a future. Or at least they could use it to buy some time. Paul Lindsay, a documentary film-maker, took these questions with him all the way to Tuvalu, and came back with an incredible (难于置信的)story. As the water rises, the Tuvalans are using the money to develop the land. They are building new houses, planning nightclubs, restaurants and hotels and new cars are driving around on new roads. The residents do not think this is strange: “Just because we are sinking, it doesn’t mean we don’t want to raise our standards of living.” Sam Teo, Tuvalu’s minister for natural resources told Lindsay.
1.Which of the following information about Tuvalu is WRONG?
A. It only has a population of 11,000 people.
B. The average income of the Tuvalans is $1000 in 1999.
C. Tuvalu is only 3m high above sea level.
D. The Tuvalans received $40 million when they sold the domain name.
2.The biggest problem for the Tuvalans is _________.
A. poverty B. global warming
C. The small population D. cyclones
3.Which of the following match the beginnings with the endings is correct?
①The Tuvalans became rich…
②By the end of the century…
③The Tuvalans are spending their money
④When the sea rises…
a.on roads, cars and new buildings
b.the sea will cover the islands completely.
c.the Tuvalans will have to leave their islands
d.when they sold their internet domain name.
A.①-d, ②-b, ③-a, ④-c B. ①-c, ②-d, ③-b, ④-a
C.①-c, ②-b, ③-a, ④-d D. ①-d, ②-c, ③-a, ④-b
4.Why did Paul Lindsay come to Tuvalu?
A. To make a documentary film to record the life of the Tuvalans.
B. To understand the living condition of the Tuvalans.
C. To know how the Tuvalans survive despite all of their problems.
D. To discover the reason for the Tuvalans not to improve their living standards.
