14、ng 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 us
15、e our brains a great deal.Even so，we still make use of only about 20% of the brains 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 to the head，in particular the forehead，will grow
16、 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 mans eyes will grow stronger. On the other hand，we tend to make less use of our arms and legs.These，as a res
17、ult，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 futu
18、re，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 use.He will still be a human being，with t
19、houghts and emotions similar to our own. 31.The passage mainly tells us that_. A.mans life will be different in the future B.future man will look quite different from us C.man is growing taller and uglier as time passes D.mans organs functions will be on the wane 32.What serves as the evidence that
20、man is changing? A.Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had. B.Mans hair is getting thinner and thinner. C.Mans arms and legs have become lighter and weaker. D.Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years. 33.The change in mans size of forehead is probably because_. A.he makes use only
21、20% of the brains capacity B.his brain has grown larger over the past centuries C.the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time D.he will use his brain more and more as time goes onB Im usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more
22、or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago.While any of these statements might be true，they are practically impossible to prove scientifically.Still，I was struck by a report which concluded that todays children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s.In fact，the anal
23、ysis showed，normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago. Why are Americas kids so stressed？The report cites two main causes：increasing physical isolation(隔离)brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement i
24、n community，among other things and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place. Considering that we cant turn the clock back，adults can still do plenty to help the next generation cope. At the top of the list is nurturing(培育)a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No
25、child is an island.Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress. To help kids build stronger connections with others，you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.Your family will thank you later.They will have more time for facetoface relationships，and they
26、will get more sleep. Limit the amount of virtual(虚拟的)violence your children are exposed to.Its not just video games and movies；children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news. Keep your expectations for your children reasonable.Many highly successful people never attended Harvard or Yale. M
27、ake exercise part of your daily routine.It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a good model for your kids.Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable.But it doesnt have to ruin your life. 34.According to the analysis，compared with normal children today，children treated as mentally ill 50 yea

29、ren are facing cannot be changed. C.Its impossible to slow down the pace of change. D.Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten. 36.The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about peoples state of mind are _. A.illogicalB.confusingC.surprisingD.questionable 37.The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is_. A.to lower their expectations for them B.to set a good model for them to follow C.to get them more involved socially D.to improve them with a safer environmentC Scientists say that air pollution causes dow
