Passage 1
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 slowlv
changing all the time．
Let US take an obvious example． Man， even five hundred vears
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
hme· 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 our brains more and more——and eventu—
aUy we shall need larger。nes．This is likely t。bring。ut a physical
change t。o：the head，in particular the forehead，will grow 1arger．
Nowdays our eyes are in constant HSe． In fact， we use them so
much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear 91as．
ses- 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 1ess 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 tllev are used a
great deal in modem life．
What about hair?This will probably disappear from the body alto—
gether 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 aU this gives the impression that future man will not be a
verv attractive creature to look at．This may well be true． All the
same．in spite of all these changes，future nab will still have a lot in
common with us．He will be a human being with thoughts and emo。
tions similar to our own．
1．Future man is likely to be different from_____________ .
A．in almost every way B．in quite a few 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 he____________.
A．began to change five hundred years ago
B．never stops changing
C．have recently begun to change D．never stops growing
3．People’heads will eventually grow larger．This is because their brains______________ .
A．will grow faster than at present
B．will be in constant use
C．will pay an important part
D．will need more room than at present
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”hair will——．
A-grow darker B．stop growing completely
C．fall out more often D．get longer
Passage 2
Telephone，television，radio，and the Intemet help people corn．
municate with each other．Because of these devices，ideas and news
of events spread quickly all over the world．For example，within see—
onds，people can know the results of an election in another country．
An international football match eomes into the homes of everyone with
a television set．News of a disaster，such as a flood。can bring help
from distant countries．Within hours，help is on the way．This is be—
cause modem technology information travels fast．
How has this speed of communication changed the world?Tomany people，the world has become smaller．Of course．this does not
mean that the world is actually physically smaller．It means that the
world seems smaller．Two hundred years ago，communication between
the continents took a long time．All news was carried on ships that
took weeks or months to cross the oceans． In the 17th and 18th centu．
ries．it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach the Americas．
，rhis time difference influenced people’s actions．For example，a few
battles in the War of 1 8 1 2 between England and the United States
could have been avoided．A piece agreement had already been
signed．Peace was made in England，but the news of peace took six
weeks to reach America．During these six weeks，the large and seri。
ous Battle of New Orleans was fought．Many people lost their lives af-
ter a peace treaty had been signed．They would not have died if news
had come in time．In the past，communication took much more time
than it does now．These was a good reason why the world seemed SO
much larger than it does today．
6．News spreads fast because of_____________ .
A．modern transportation B．the changes of the world
C．new technology D．a peace agreement
7．According to this passage，__________ is very impodant to
people in a disaster area．

tion．
