第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
第一节 阅读短文（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

A
We can stay young forever. That is the message Dr. Shen Ziyin wants to give the world. And the Chinese doctor claims that he has found an answer to the problems of aging.
His solution is a herbal medicine to slow the process of aging.
Dr. Shen Ziyin has been trained in Western medicine. At the same time he studied traditional Chinese medicine. And, he has been working for the past forty years to put together the best of both and find a cure for aging. He has taken a hint from the ancient Chinese medicine system called “shen”.
According to Shen, it is the kidney（肾脏）which adjusts the functioning of the body as well as its aging process. It is responsible for the level of activity that the human bodies go through. Studies conducted by Dr. Shen show that herbal medicine based on the shen system slow the aging process, says a report in The Telegraph newspaper.
We notice that when people grow old, they have reduced strength, loss of hair, backache, weakness in general, and wrinkles, among others. This happens because when people grow old, their bodies produce T-cells. These T-cells contain a particular substance called Fas. Fas makes the cells in the body destruct themselves.
So the only way to slow down aging is to slow the production of T-cells in the body. This can happen if people eat low calorie food. Then the body is not active enough to produce extra T-cells. But, is going hungry all the time a good price to pay for staying young?
This is where Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine comes in. But how effective it will be, only time can tell.
51. How did Dr. Shen find the solution to the problem of aging?
A. By studying Western medicine.
B. By learning traditional Chinese medicine.
C. By combining both Western and Chinese medicine.
D. By doing research on both Western and Chinese people.
52. The reason why people become old is that _________.
A. their bodies produce T-cells
B. their bodies are unable to fight diseases
C. they have reduced strength, loss of hair
D. they become weaker and weaker
53. We can probably learn from the passage that _________.
A. producing more low calorie food allows people to keep young
B. the more Chinese herbal medicine people drink, the better for health
C. people should try to quicken the production of T-cells in the body
D. it remains unknown how effective Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine is
B

Most people believe they don't have imagination. They are wrong. Everyone has imagination, but most of us，once we became adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isn't always connected with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time routinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve，a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.
This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First，think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image，word，idea or object，for example，a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated with candles：light，fire，matches, wax，night，silence，etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original present; you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night.
　 Imagine that normal limitations don't exist. You have as much time/space/money，etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If，for example，your goal is to learn to ski, you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December，or every Monday in January.
Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators use this technique in business，and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the characters in their books. They ask questions: what does this character want? Why can't she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goal involves other people, put yourself “in their shoes”. The best fishermen think like fish!
58. According to the passage, when we become adults, _________ .
A. most of us are no longer creative B. we can still learn to be more creative
C. we are not as imaginative as children D. we are unwilling to be creative
59. The second technique suggests that you just imagine
A. setting a goal is as simple as skiing
B. new possibilities will soon appear
C. December and January are the best months for skiing.
D. you have every
