Baths and bathing have been considered of an important medical therapy to man. In Greece there are the ruins of a bath tub and water system built over 3 000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some public baths as many 3 000 persons could bathe at the same time.
Treating diseases by bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing, or hydrotherapy, first became popular in Europe and by the late 1 700’s also became popular in the United States.
For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for one’s health. Ordinary bathing just to be clean was avoided, and perfume(香水) was used to cover up body and smell.
By the 1 700’s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently.
In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as “the great unwashed”. In one American city, for example, a person could only take a bath every 30 days! That was a law.
Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health. Doctors know that dirty bodies increase that chance of disease.
Therefore in the United States people generally bathe often.
【小題1】What does the word “hydrotherapy” underlined in the second paragraph refer to?
A.A bathing tub. | B.Medical bathing. |
C.Ordinary bathing. | D.Warm public baths. |
A.Bathing was important to Greeks and Romans. |

C.The Greek had warm public baths. |
D.The Greek used bath tubs. |
A.bathing in the USA |
B.the good points and bad points of bathing |

Famous centenarians (百歲老人) still active in arts, science are in no mood to retire. "Those who stand still, die," is one of Oliveira's favorite phrases. He knows from experience what it means, as the Portuguese film director has reached the age of 102 and is still active in his profession. Every year, Oliveira shoots a film and is currently working on his next project. "You have to work, work, work in order to forget that death is not far away," he said. When asked about his age, Oliveira said with some humility: "It's down to mother nature. It gave to me what it took from others."
Being both mentally and physically fit in old age is partly a matter of luck, but it also has something to do with character. Not every white-haired person is wise and social skills, openness and the ability to train the brain are essential for senior citizens.
Along with the architect Oscar Niemeyer (103), Nobel laureate Montalcini (101) and director Kurt Maetzig (100), Oliveira is one of those people of whom it would be very wrong to think as members of a listless elderly generation.
Another master in his profession is the architect Oscar Niemeyer. The 103-year-old Brazilian is best known for his futuristic-looking buildings in Brasilia, but he also speaks out on behalf of the poor. "The role of the architect is to struggle for a better world where we can develop a form of architecture that serves everyone and not just a privileged few," said Niemeyer recently. He spends almost every day working in his office in Copacabana, and even when he falls ill he keeps working on ideas: After a gallbladder (膽囊) operation he composed a samba tune (桑巴舞曲) in the clinic.
Another man who could sing a song about age is 107-year-old Heesters. The Dutch-born opera singer spent most of his life performing in Germany, where he still works. Recently Heesters said: "I want to be at least 108-years-old." He also plans to keep performing. "Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?" Heesters has not given up trying to add to his tally of awards and is looking for a "good stage role".
Italian scientist Rita Levi-Montalcini, who is 101-year-old and is still active in medical science, has described the force that keeps driving her on: "Progress is created through imperfection." In 1986 she and her lab colleague were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. She's convinced that humans grow on challenges.
With so many brilliant examples given, we can see clearly that age is no barrier to some high achievers.
【小題1】From the first two paragraphs, we can see ______.
A.being active at 102 is achievable for everybody |
B.Oliveira owes his long life to his mother’s help |
C.being fit in old age is a matter of luck and character |
D.social skills and wisdom are difficult for the senior |
A.4 | B.5 | C.6 | D.7 |
A.wants to sit or lie in comfort |
B.is waiting for people to pick him up |
C.is willing to work till he dies |
D.prefers to give performance at home |
A.old age is a big problem if you want to succeed |
B.a(chǎn)s a senior citizen, you have to be open-minded and optimistic |
C.old people should never think of themselves as old |
D.old age cannot prevent a great person from achieving a lot |
A.intelligent | B.pessimistic | C.positive | D.diligent |

C
Thousands of people living in the Chinese eapital will celebrate the start of the Chinese New Year by heading for the ski resorts(滑雪場).Never mind that Beijing’s dry weather seldom produces
Now. It is cold enough in winter for snow-making machines to make a covering for the hills north to
The capital. And the rapid growth of a pleasure-seeking middle class has formed the basis for this
New craze(熱潮).
Since Beijing’s first ski resort was opened ten years ago, the sport has enjoyed an astonishing increase.There are now more than a dozen resorts. Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections. Mr.Wei, a manager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing, sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe. In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China. But many are in faraway areas of the country and can’t really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts
In Europe.
Beijing’s sking craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private(私有的)cars. This has led to the growth of a leisure industry in the capital’s suburbs(郊區(qū)).which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people. According to Mr. Wei,About 40% of the visitors to his resort some in their own cars. The rest are bused in by schools, businesses or government offices.
The problem is making money.Starting ski resorturequires quite a lot of money:hiring land from the local government,preparing the hills,buying snow machines,making sure there are enough
water and electricity to run them,and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customers.The ski resort where Mr.Wei works cost nearly $4m to set up.And,as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea,many others rush in and price wars break out.Beijing now offers some of
the cheapest ski training classes in the world,though with most people rather new to the sport, expecting a few more doing the same job.
50.What does this text mainly talk about?
A.Convenience for skiers brought about by private cars
B.Skiing as a new way of enjoying one’s spare time
C.Things to be considered when starting a ski resort
D.A sudden increase of ski training classes in Beijing
51.Why are some Chinese likely to go skiing in Burope?
A.To visit more ski areas
B.To ski on natrual snow
C.For a large collection of ski suits
D.For better services and equipment
52.The underlined words”leisure industry”in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.transport to ski resorts
B.production of familycars
C.business of providing spare time enjoyments
D.part-time work for people living in the suburbs
53.What is the main problem in running a ski resort?
A.Difficulty in hiring land
B.Lack of business experience
C.……ski resorts.
D.Shortage of water and electricity
