In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the Animals at Night. It’s a story about Jennings, a boy living in various orphanages（孤儿院）with only his stuffed animal（毛绒玩具）, Doggie, for companionship. It’s a fascinating book, but

One day, as I looked across my room at the pile of stuffed animals, a(n) 17 came to me. I would 18 stuffed animals for children like Jennings. 19 , I contacted agencies that support those children and they said the stuffed animals would certainly 20 children’s spirits.

B
An unpleasant smell floated into my nose as the bowl of fried stinky tofu（臭豆腐）
settled onto my grandmother’s dinner table. I immediately sat back. The smell ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.
“It’s supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.
Holding my breath, I unwillingly took a bite. To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then, whenever I visited my grandmother’s house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with excitement. Thus, stinky tofu became more than a household tradition. It became my favorite dish.
Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an

immature boy, I never understood my uncle’s condition of Down syndrom（e
唐氏综合征）.

He was an unfriendly and terrible creature in my eyes. He constantly walked around the house, talking to himself. Whenever he was within view, I would run away in fear.
However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out of my bed when I heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze. He
slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke（抚摸）a baby.
A wide smile emerged from his blank expression. How beautiful his smile was! I could not help but smile back. My fear disappeared gradually, and my muscles relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.
My uncle very much resembles stinky tofu. Stinky tofu smells unpleasant on the outside, yet feels warm and soft on the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncle’s Down syndrome made me keep my distance at first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is harmless and has a loving nature.
Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit for a regular life. As I was unable to see through the outer surface of the tofu, these people are
unable to see through the surface of prejudice（偏见）. As a result, they judge the disabled
with one glance.
The outside and inside of the stinky tofu exist as two extremely different worlds. Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky tofu offers a valuable lesson: never judge people at first glance, for true beauty comes from the inside.
41．Why did stinky tofu become the author’s favorite dish?
A．It was related to family tradition. B．It turned out to be quite delicious.
C．Grandma encouraged him to try it. D．His appetite for food had increased.

43．The author’s attitude towards Uncle Chan changed when .
A．Chan’s footsteps woke up the author
B．Chan showed his friendliness to the author
C．Chan displayed his love towards his mother
D．Chan’s blank expression made the author smile
44．The comparison between stinky tofu and the author’s uncle serves to _.
A．highlight the nature of Uncle Chan B．analyze the family relationship C．describe a childhood memory D．introduce a traditional Chinese food
45．What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?
A．We shouldn’t judge by appearances. B．A person’s taste changes over time.
C．Blood is thicker than water. D．You are what you eat.

C
Essentially, everyone has two ages: a chronologica（l


按时间计算的）age, how old the

calendar says you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.
“Chronological age isn’t how old we really are. It’s merely a number,” said Professor David Sinclair at Harvard University. “It is biological age that determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, how much we exercise, and what environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.”
To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified nine

biomarker（s
生物标志）that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by a simple blood

test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune（免疫的）measures, can be put into the computer, and the algorithm（算式，算法）does the rest.

Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be changed. Doctors can take this information and help patients make changes to lifestyle, and hopefully take steps to improve their biological conditions. “I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,” Levine said. “People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.”
Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by the results. “I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’m physically active; I eat what I consider a fairly healthy diet. But I did not find my results to be as good as I had hoped they would be. It was a wake-up call,” she said.
Levine is working with a group to provide access to the algorithm online so that anyone can calculate their biological age, identify potential risks and take steps to improve their own health in the long run. “No one wants to live an extremely long life with a lot of
chronic（慢性的）diseases,” Levine said. “By delaying the development of mental and
physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.”
46．Biological age depends on _.
A．whether we can adapt ourselves to the environment
B．how well our body works compared with
