13.We can stay young forever.That is the message Dr.Shen Ziyin wants to give the world.And the Chinese doctor claims(聲稱) that he has found an answer to the problems of aging.
His solution(解決辦法) is a herbal medicine to slow the process of aging.
Dr.Shen Ziyin has been trained in Western medicine.At the same time he studied traditional Chinese medicine.And,he has been working for the past forty years to put together the best of both and find a cure for aging.He has taken a hint(線索) from the ancient Chinese medicine system called"shen".
According to Shen,it is the kidney(腎) which adjusts the functioning of the body as well as its aging process.It is responsible for the level of activity that the human bodies go through.Studies conducted by Dr.Shen show that herbal medicine based on the shen system slow the aging process,says a report in The Telegraph newspaper.
We notice that when people grow old,they have reduced strength,loss of hair,backache,weakness in general,and wrinkles,among others.This happens because when people grow old,their bodies produce T-cells.These T-cells contain a particular substance called Fas.Fas makes the cells in the body destruct themselves.
So the only way to slow down aging is to slow the production of T-cells in the body.This can happen if people eat low calorie food.Then the body is not active enough to produce extra T-cells.But,is going hungry all the time a good price to pay for staying young?
This is where Dr.Shen's herbal medicine comes in.But how effective it will be,only time can tell.
28.How did Dr.Shen find the solution to the problem of aging?D
A.By studying Western medicine.
B.By learning traditional Chinese medicine.
C.By doing research on both Western and Chinese people.
D.By combining both Western and Chinese medicine.
29.What plays the most important role in keeping people young according to Shen?A
A.People's good kidney.
B.Medical treatment.
C.Level of people's activity.
D.Positive life attitude.
30.The reason why people become old is thatC.
A.their bodies are unable to fight diseases
B.they have reduced strength,loss of hair
C.their bodies produce T-cells
D.they become weaker and weaker
31.We can probably learn from the passage thatB.
A.people should try to quicken the production of T-cells in the body
B.it remains unknown how effective Dr.Shen's herbal medicine is
C.the more Chinese herbal medicine people drink,the better for health
D.producing more low calorie food allows people to keep young.

16.Many people say dolphins are very intelligent.They seem to be able to think,understand,and learn things quickly.But are they smart like humans or more than cats or dogs?Dolphins use their brains differently from people.But scientists say dolphin intelligence and human intelligence are similar in some ways.How?
l  Fact 1:Talk to me
    Like humans,every dolphin has its own"name".The name is a special whistle.Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself,usually by its first birthday.Actually,scientists think dolphins,like people,"talk"to each other about a lot of things,such as their age,their feelings,or finding food.And,like humans,dolphins use a system of sounds and body language to communicate.But understanding their conversations is not easy for humans.No one speaks"dolphin"yet,but some scientists are trying to learn.

    Dolphins are also social animals.They live in groups,and they often join others from different groups to play games and have fun--just like people.In fact,playing together is something only intelligent animals do.
l  Fact 3:Fishermen's helper
    Dolphins and humans are similar in another way:both make plans to get something they want.In the seas of southern Brazil,for example,dolphins use an interesting strategy to get food.When fish are near a boat,dolphins show signs to the fishermen to put their nets in the water.Using this method,the men can catch a lot of fish.What is the advantage for the dolphins in doing so?They get to eat some of the fish.
38.What does a dolphin often use as its"name"?B
