Your words carry a message. People communicate with words. But do you think you can communicate withou
21、t words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying “No”. You nod and people know you are s
22、aying “Yes”. Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign on the bus helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the door tells you where to go in or out.

23、cate in many other ways.An artist can use his drawing to tell about the beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things.

27、s of CommunicationBWhat will man be like in the future in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, 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
28、 ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may assume(假定;设想)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
29、 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 our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow
30、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 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 result,
31、 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 fut
32、ure, 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,
33、 with thoughts and motions similar to our own.51. The passage mainly tells us that _.A. Mans life will be different in the futureB. Future man will look quite different from usC. Man is growing taller and uglier as time passes D. Mans organs functions will change52. What serves as the evidence that
34、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.53. The change in mans size of the forehead is probably because _.A. he makes use
35、of only 20% of the brains capacityB. his brain has grown larger over the past centuriesC. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due timeD. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on 54. Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no l
36、onger useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesnt have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in a different way.55. It is implied that _.A. human beings will become less attractive in the future B. less use of a bodily organ may lead to it
37、s degeneration(退化)C. human beings hope for a change in the future life D. future life is always predictableC阅读下面短文,按照要求回答问题。What will the city of the future look like? No one knows for sure, and making predictions is a risky business. But one thing is certain they are going to get bigger before they
38、 get smaller. In the future, care for the environment will become very important as earths natural resources run out. We will use lots of recycled materials, such as plastic, aluminum, steel, glass, wood and paper, and we will waste fewer natural resources. We will also have to rely more on alternat
39、ive energy, such as solar and wind power. All this seems certain, but there are plenty of things about city life in the future which are not certain. To find out what young people think about the future of urban life, a teacher at a university in Texas in the United States asked his students to thin
40、k how they would run a city of 50,000 people in the year 2025. Here are some of the ideas they had:Garbage ships To get rid of garbage problems, the city will load huge spaceships with waste materials and send them towards the sun, preventing landfill and environmental problems.
