    A study has found that a lifetime of regular exercise and activity can slow down the aging process (衰老过程. Researchers say that getting older should not necessarily mean becoming more weak or sick. Their research shows that a devotion to a life of movement and exercise may help us live not only longer, but also healthier.
    For their study, the researchers looked at two groups. The first group was made up of 125 non-professional cyclists between the ages of 55 to 79. This group included 84 healthy men and 41 healthy women. We will call this group the “cyclists”.
    Researchers then found 130 people to make up a second group. Within this group, 75 people were aged from 57 to 80. The other 55 were between the ages of 20 and 36. The people in this group were also healthy, but they did not exercise regularly. We will call this group the “non-exercisers”. Smokers, heavy drinkers of alcohol and people with other health issues were not included in the study.
    Then, researchers gave both groups a series of tests. They tested their muscle mass (肌肉质量, muscular strength, percentage of body fat and the strength of their immune (免疫的 systems. Then the researchers compared the results of the two groups.
    Results showed that the cyclists did not experience body changes usually regarded as a normal aging process. For example, they did not lose muscle mass or muscular strength. Also, their body fat did not increase with age.
    The researchers also found something they had not expected. The study showed that the immune systems of the cyclists did not age either.
    The researchers advise us all to find an exercise that we like in our lives. 4. How did the researchers carry out the study? A. By comparing. B. By discussing. C. By imagining. D. By reasoning. 5. Which of the following is a result of the research? A. The cyclists kept a thin body shape. B. The non-exercisers gained weight easily. C. The cyclists’ muscles remained strong with age. D. The non-exercisers usually had health problems.

    6. Which is an unexpected result for the researchers? A. The cyclists had normal aging process. B. The cyclists’ immune systems didn’t age. C. The cyclists lost nearly all their fat. D. Everyone needed an exercise in their lives.
    7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Healthy People Need More Exercise B. Take an Exercise, the Harder, the Better C. Cycling Is the Best Way to Prevent Aging D. A Lifetime of Exercise Slows Aging Process
    C
    What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-­technology（生物技术）. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become 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（细胞）are the basic units of all living 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 advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will beable 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 on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
    It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future. 8. According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________. A. diseases and aging B. accidents and war C. accidents and aging D. heart disease and war
    9. In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in（在于）________.

    A. the Internet B. medicine C. brain cells D. human organs
    10. Humans may live longer in the future because ________. A. heart disease will be far away from us B. human brains can decide the final death C. the basic materials of cells will last forever D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine
    11. How long can humans live in the future according to the passage? A. Over 100 years. B. More than 120 years. C. About 150 years.
    D. The passage doesn’t tell us.
    D
    If you easily make mistakes when in a hurry, a new study from Michigan State University—the largest of its kind to date-found that meditation (冥想 could help you improve the situation.
    The research tested how open monitoring meditation (OMM—or, meditationthat focuses awareness on feelings or thoughts as they unfold in one’s mind and body—alteredbrain activity in a way that suggested increased error recognition.
    “People’s interest in meditation is outpacing what science can prove in terms of effects and benefits.” said Jeff Lin, MSU psychology doctoral candidate and study co-author. “But it’s amazing to me that we were able to see how one session of a guided meditation could produce changes to brain activity in non-meditators.”
    “Some forms of meditation have you focus on a single object, commonly your breath, but open monitoring meditation is a bit different,” Lin said, “It has you tune inward and pay attention to everything going on in your mind and body. The goal is to sit quietly and pay close attention to where the mind travels without getting too caught up in the scenery.”
    Lin and his MSU co-authors—William Eckerle, Ling Peng and Jason Moser—hired more than 200 participants to test how open monitoring meditation affected how people detect and respond toerrors.
    The participants, who had never meditated before, were taken through a 20-minute open monitoring meditation exercise while the researchers measured brain activity through electroencephalography (脑电图, or EEG. Then, they completed a computerized distraction (分心 test.

    “The EEG can measure brain activity at the millisecond level, so we got precise measures of brain activity right after mistakes compared to correct responses,” Lin said. “A certain neural signal occurs about half a second after an error called the error positivity, which is linked to conscious error recognition. We found that the strength of this signal is increased in the meditators to controls.”
    “These findings show what just 20 minutes of open monitoring meditation can do to improve the brain’s ability to detect and pay attention to mistakes,” Moser said.
    12. What does the underlined word “altered” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
    A. Changed. B. Prevented. C. Started. D. Recorded. 13. Why is open monitoring meditation different?
    A. It is just aimed at a single object. B. It clears your mind of everything. C. It gets too caught up in the scenery. D. It focuses on where the mind travels. 14. What did the researchers do for the study
    A. They hired people who had meditated before. B. They measured the participants’ brain activity. C. They reminded the participants to avoid errors. D. They had non-meditators design a distraction test.
    15. What is the best title for the text?
    A. Turn to OMM to Avoid Acting in a Hurry B. You’re Able to Recognize Errors Consciously C. Meditators’ Brain Proves Much More Active D. OMM Can Help You Make Fewer Mistakes 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
