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
ABefore， I thought that a man who was wise and good would become rich， but now I know this is not always true． I learned it from my teacher． He is both wise and good， but he is not rich at all． He may become rich if he gives up(放弃) teaching and goes into business． But he likes his job and thinks it，s wonderful to help young people． He stays at school from morning till night and works very hard． He always smiles at us when we go to ask him for help． He is kinder to us than any other teacher in our school． I think it must be easier to learn history or math than to learn how to become a man like him． He scolds(责备 ) us when we do something wrong，but it makes us try to do better．We all wish to study with him as long as possible． But that may be impossible． Some of us may become doctors， some become businessmen， some be- come engineers， some become writers， but we all want one thing very much． It is that we all want to be teachers in the future．( )21． The writer thinks his teacher is_________．A． wise and goodB． wise and richC． good and rich

问答题Practice 2 We must work passionately and indefatigably to bridge the gulf between our scientific progress and our moral progress. One of the great problems of mankind is that we suffer from a poverty of the spirit which stands in glaring contrast to our scientific and technological abundance. The richer we have become materially, the poorer we have become morally and spiritually. Every man lives in two realms, the internal and the external. The internal is that realm of spiritual ends expressed in art, literature, morals and religion. The external is that complex of devices, techniques, mechanisms and instrumentalities by means of which we live. Our problem today is that we have allowed the internal to become lost in the external. We have allowed the means by which we live to outdistance the ends for which we live. So much of modern life can be summarized in that suggestive phrase of Thoreau: “Improved means to an unimproved end. “ This is the serious predicament, the deep and haunting problem, confronting modern man. Enlarged material powers spell enlarged peril if there is not proportionate growth of the soul. When the external of man’s nature subjugates the internal, dark storm clouds begin to form. (Martin Luther King: Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community?)
