She took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at age 114, and held a concert in the neighborhood on her 121st birthday.
      When it comes to long life, Jeanne Calment is the world’s recordholder. She lived to the ripe old age of 122. So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span(壽命)? If scientists come up with some sort of pill or diet that would slow aging, could we possibly make it to 150-or beyond?
      Researchers don’t entirely agree on the answers. “Calment lived to 122, so it wouldn’t surprise me if someone alive today reaches 130 or 135, ”says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas.
      Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees. “People can live much longer than we think, ”he says. “Experts used to say that humans couldn’t live past 110. When Calment blew past that age, they raised the number to 120. So why can’t we go higher? ”
      The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that it’s all just guessing. “Anyone can make up a number, ”says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan. “Usually the scientist who picks the highest number gets his name in Time magazine. ”
      Won’t new anti-aging techniques keep us alive for centuries? Any cure, says Miller, for aging would probably keep most of us kicking until about 120. Researchers are working on treatments that lengthen the life span of mice by 50 percent at most. So, if the average human life span is about 80 years, says Miller, “adding another 50 percent would get you to 120. ”
      So what can we conclude from this little disagreement among the researchers? That life span is flexible(有彈性的), but there is a limit, says George Martin of the University of Washington. “We can get flies to live 50 percent longer, ”he says. “But a fly’s never going to live 150 years. ”O(jiān)f course, if you became a new species (物種), one that ages at a slower speed, that would be a different story, he adds.
      Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve (進化)their way to longer life? “It’s pretty cool to think about, ”he says with a smile.
小題1: What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove to us?
A.People can live to 122.
B.Old people are creative.
C.Women are sporty at 85.
D.Women live longer than men.
小題2: According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas, ______.
A.the average human life span could be 110
B.scientists cannot find ways to slow aging
C.few people can expect to live to over 150
D.researchers are not sure how long people can live
小題3: Who would agree that a scientist will become famous if he makes the wildest guess at longevity?
A.Jerry Shay. B.Steve Austad
C.Rich Miller D.George Martin
小題4: What can we infer from the last three paragraphs?
A.Most of us could be good at sports even at 120.
B.The average human life span cannot be doubled
C.Scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before.
D.New techniques could be used to change flies into a new species

Eleven top universities are joining the Open University to launch free Internet courses. King’s College London, along with the Universities of Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, East Anglia, Exeter, Lancaster, Leeds, Southampton, St Andrews and Warwick, has partnered with FutureLearn, a company set up by the Open University that will offer free and non-credit bearing courses to Internet-users around the world.
The courses are modeled on the US phenomenon “Massive open online courses” ( Moocs ), which have attracted millions of users around the world and are especially popular in emerging economies.
FutureLearn will improve UK institutions for international students, said Prof Martin Bean, voice-chancellor of the Open University. “At the moment, foreign students’ perception of UK Universities is: wonderful history, great tradition, really good teaching, but a bit boring.”
Leeds University says the partnership will benefit students studying on campus. “Students will have access to a rich set of resources from both Leeds and our partners. They can also broaden their education beyond their main subject areas.”
The UK higher education industry stands among the top five export earners for Britain Moocs have grown rapidly in the US over the past year, with two providers leading the field. Coursera offers courses from 33 Universities, including Princeton, Brown, Columbia and Duke, and has reached more than 1.7 million users, EdX, a nonprofit start-up from Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology courses this autumn.
Simon Nelson, one of the key architects of BBC Online, will head FutureLearn as launch CEO. “It’s really meaningful for these universities to come together –we’ll punch much harder collectively than any other university will individually,” he said.
Partner Institutions will be responsible for their own content while the OU, which has been providing distance-learning courses since 1971, will assist with course delivery and infrastructure. Details of further universities will be revealed next year, as will the courses on offer.
小題1: What does the underlined word “perception” in paragrah3 mean?
A.expectationB.viewC.dreamD.proposal
小題2: We can learn from the passage that              
A.Coursera, one of the two providers, leads the online courses in the US.
B.Economics is the most popular subject among these online courses.
C.FutureLearn is only set up for the Internet-users.
D.About 1,7million users are taking the free courses launched by UK.
小題3:What is implied in Simon’s words?
A.It’s really meaningful for these universities to cooperate.
B.Single university can’t do the work very well.
C.These universities will compete with each other.
D.Joint efforts by these top universities will help the program go more smoothly.
小題4:All of the following statements are true except             
A.Internet-users don’t need to get credit for the courses.
B.UK may top the list of online education one day.
C.The UK higher education industry stands among the top five export earners for England.

A special laboratory at the University of Chicago is busy only at night. It is a dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Their findings have discovered that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night, although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams.
  While the subjects—usually students—sleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.
Observers report that a person usually fidgets(煩躁不安) before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dream is over, a buzzer wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep—perhaps to dream some more.
Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can usually recall the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have disappeared.
小題1:According to the passage, researchers at the University of Chicago are studying ____.
A.contents of dreams B.dreamers while they dream
C.the meaning of dreamsD.the progress of sleeping
小題2:Their finding has discovered that _____.
A.everyone dreams every night
B.dreams are easily remembered
C.dreams are likely to be frightening
D.One person dreams only one dream a night
小題3:The machines being used in the experiment record _____.
A.the depth of sleep
B.the subjects’ brain waves and eye movements
C.how many dreams a person has
D.what a sleeper dreams during his sleep
小題4:A person would be most likely to remember the dream that _____.

To me, the ocean is our greatest wilderness. I love swimming in it , surfing its waves, watching it from shore and thinking about all the life living unseen under the surface.
When I take my little kids to check out tide pools, we’re overjoyed when we find a sea star or some shellfish. Lately, though, I've noticed a change in my favorite pools: there are more sea grasses and fewer animals with shells.
I can't help feeling these small changes portend something more troubling about our oceans. It matches what scientists are telling us: our oceans are being troubled by carbon dioxide that threatens corals, colorful fish, salmon, sea otters, even whales. Our oceans are facing a major change.
Every hour, a million tons of carbon dioxide from cars, factories and power plants rain down on the world’s oceans. Carbon pollution brings about a chemical reaction that turns sea water more acidic (酸的) and takes away things important for sea animals .
Some of us are already feeling the effects of this growing crisis(危機). Shellfish farmers in the Pacific Northwest have reported a decrease in natural and farmed oysters(牡蠣). Just this week, a new studyproved the link between the huge reduction in the numbers of oysters and ocean acidification. As polar waters become more acidic, Alaskan fishermen are troubled by the future of smaller fish.
Without action, ocean acidification will have a disastrous influence on the food chain, affecting not only sea life but the people who depend on it for food and their living. Already, our oceans have become 30 percent more acidic since preindustrial times, and it gets worse every day. We can stop this frightening dream, but only if we act now.
That's why the Center for Biological Diversity has started a petition (請愿書) requesting President Obama and the Environmental Protection Agency to develop a plan to deal with ocean acidification. Decisive action can save sea life as we know it.
Now it isn’t too late to save our oceans and sea life. With immediate action to reduce carbon dioxide release we can start taking important steps today to deal with this disastrous situation. Join me in our petition calling for a national plan to save our oceans.
小題1:The author’s recent visits to the tide pool brought her ___ .
A.happinessB.a(chǎn)ngerC.concernD.comfort
小題2:The underlined word “portend” in Paragraph 3 probably means ___ .
A.predictB.preventC.replaceD.reduce
小題3:What the author worries about most is ____ .
A.the harm of sea grasses
B.carbon pollution in the sea
C.that the petition may be turned down
D.how fishermen can make a living in the future
小題4:What is the main purpose of the text ?
A.To inform.B.To educate.C.To persuade .D.To instruct.

The forces that make Japan one of the world's most earthquake-prone(有地震傾向的) countries could become part of its long-term energy solution.
Water from deep below the ground at Japan's tens of thousands of hot springs could be used to produce electricity.
Although Japanese high-tech companies are leaders in geothermal(地?zé)岬模?technology and export it, its use is limited in the nation.
"Japan should no doubt make use of its resources of geothermal energy," said Yoshiyasu Takefuji, a leading researcher of thermal-electric power production.
The disastrous earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011 caused a reaction against atomic power, which previously made up 30 percent of Japan's energy needs, and increased interest in alternative energies, which account for only 8 percent.
Artist Yoko Ono has called on Japan to explore its natural energy, following the example of Iceland which uses renewable energy for more than 80 percent of its needs.
For now, geothermal energy makes up less than 1 percent of the energy needs in Japan, which has for decades relied heavily on fossil fuels and atomic power.
The biggest problem to geothermal energy is the high initial cost of the exploration and constructing the factories.Another problem is that Japan's potentially best sites are already being developed for tourism or are located within national parks where construction is forbidden.
"We can't even dig 10cm inside national parks." said Shigeto Yamada of Fuji Electric, adding that regulations protecting nature would need to be relaxed for geothermal energy to grow.
Researcher Hideaki Matsui said, "Producing electricity using hot springs is a decades-long project.We also have to think about what to do for now as energy supplies will decline in the short term."
The Earth Policy Institute in Washington, US, believed Japan could produce 80,000 megawatts(兆瓦)and meet more than half its electricity needs with geothermal technology.
Japanese giants such as Toshiba are already global leaders in geothermal technology, with a 70 percent market share.In 2010, Fuji Electric built the world's largest geothermal factory in New Zealand.
小題1:What would be the best title for the text?
A.Alternative energies in Japan
B.World's largest geothermal plant
C.Japan takes the lead in geothermal technology
D.Japan thinks of geothermal energy
小題2:What percentage of Japan's energy needs is geothermal energy?
A.About 8%.B.Below 1%.C.Around 30%.D.Over 80%.
小題3:According to Shigeto Yamada, the growth of geothermal power in Japan needs ____.
A.a(chǎn) change of rulesB.financial support
C.local people's helpD.high technology
小題4:Geothermal energy is considered as a long-term program by _____.
A.Yoshiyasu TakefujiB.Hideaki Matsui
C.Shigeto YamadaD.Yoko Ono
小題5:It can be learned from the last two paragraphs that _____.
A.the world's biggest geothermal plant was built by America
B.Japan will not export its geothermal technology
C.the potential of Japan's geothermal energy is great
D.it is hard to find geothermal energy in Japan
