4.189. What will man be like in the future—in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make a guess, 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 a 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 too: 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 a 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. [共5题](1) Future man is likely to be different from us ________.(A) in quite a few ways (B) in almost every way(C) in great many ways (D) in one or two ways(2) The reason for believing that future man will be different is that man ________.(A) began to change five hundred years ago(B) never stops changing(C) never stops growing(D) has recently begun to change(3) People’s heads will eventually grow larger. This is because their brains ________.(A) will grow faster than at present(B) will need more room than at present(C) will play an important part(D) will be in constant use(4) Future man will probably ________.(A) have bigger eyes (B) get weaker eyes(C) see better (D) have to wear better glasses(5) Future man’s hair will ________.(A) grow darker (B) stop growing completely(C) fall out more often (D) get longer

  • 第16题:

    In our comparison-soaked culture, it′s hard to avoid slipping into "Why can′t I" mode. When one of my colleagues (51)__________I think is not better than me published a new book, I couldn′t help (52) __________ (complain) how (53) __________ (achieve) it seemed to me and what bad luck I had. Negative feelings like this made life dark for us. How to get rid of the harmful effects of comparison needs exploring. Here′ s what I learned:
    Don′ t compare your insides to someone else′ s outsides.
    The first time I heard this excellent advice, I (54)__________(suffer) from terrible envy. My professor′s warning shocked me that "You have no idea what it (55) __________ (take) for them to get there". Don′t just owe it to pure luck. Instead, you should fad out what′s really going on behind the scenes.
    She was absolutely right, yet it′s much (56) __________ (easy) to envy what they′ve got than it is to ask the serious question: What are they modeling for me?

If you notice yourself admiring people who take creative risks, bring your full attention to the part of you that wants to be braver.

    第(53)题答案


    答案:
    解析:
    unachievable。解析:考查seem的用法。seem可用作连系动词,意为“似乎,好像”,可用于“it seems+形容词+to sb.”结构中。根据后一句中的negative feelings可知此处需填入表示消极意义的词,故填 unachievable(难以实现的)。

    We learn that Bill Clinton’s father ______ .
    A

    died before Bill Clinton was born

    B

    died when Bill Clinton was a few months old

    C

    left his wife after Bill Clinton was born

    D

    was his mother’s second husband


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    事实细节的找寻和判断。题干中Bill Clinton’s father为关键词,从而定位到录音中的“His mother named him for his father, who had been killed in a car accident a few months earlier.”,可知,在比尔·克林顿出生的前几个月,他的父亲就因出车祸而过世了。因此A项为正确答案。
    【录音原文】
    President Clinton was born in the little southern town of Hope, Arkansas, on August 19, 1946. But his name was not Bill Clinton. It was William Jefferson Blythe. His mother named him for his father, who had been killed in a car accident a few months earlier. When Bill was four years old, his mother married Roger Clinton who then legally became Bill’s father. Roger Clinton and Bill’s mother had a son, Roger Jr.
