Throughout history man has had to accept the fact that all living things must die. But people now live longer than they 1 . Yet, all living things still show the 2 of aging, which will eventually 3 death.
Aging is not a disease, but as a person passes maturity (成熟期), the cells of the body and the 4 they form do not function as well as they 5 in childhood and teenage years. The body provides less 6 against disease and is more 7 to have accident.
A number of related causes may 8 aging. Some cells of the body have a fairly long life, but they are not 9 when they die. As a person ages, 10 of brain cells and muscle cells decreases. 11 body cells die and are replaced by new cells. In an aging person the 12 cells may not be as workable or as capable 13 growth as those of a young person.
Another 14 in aging may be changes within the cells 15 . Some of the protein chemicals in cells are known 16 with age and become less elastic (有彈性的). This is why the skin of old people wrinkles (皺紋) and 17 . This is also the reason why old people 18 in height. There may be other more important chemical changes in the cells. Some complex cell chemicals, such as DNA and RNA, store and 19 information that the cells need． Aging may affect this 20 and change the information-carrying molecules so that they do not transmit the information as well.

這是一篇科普類短文。本文講述的主題是“盡管人的壽命在延長，但隨著歲月的流失，人人都會衰老，最終將面臨死亡”。
1. C 根據句意：但是人們現在比過去壽命高。used to表示“過去經常做……”，暗示現在并不如此，此處指過去的情況，正好與句義相符。would可表示“過去經常”，但不含“今昔對比”之意。注意該詞組與be used to的區別，后者意為“習慣于……”， to為介詞。D項之所以不對，是因為在以下詞組中，當不定式省略時，通常要保留不定式符號to，如：used to, be going to, mean to, ought to, try to, plan to等。
2. B 根據下文中的定語從句所表示的意義進行判斷，這里所填入的單詞應該表示“衰老的結果”這一意義。effect意為“結果，影響”，正是此意。function“功能，機能，作用”；affect“影響，感動”，是動詞；sign“標記”。解題時要注意effect和affect拼寫只相差一個字母，但effect是名詞而affect是動詞。
3. D 根據主句內容，which引導非限制性定語從句，which表示前面的“衰老的結果”，即：衰老的結果最終導致死亡。result in“使發生，導致”；lead in無此搭配，在表示“導致”時，應為lead to；give in “讓步，屈服”；run into“陷入”，常指陷入困境。
4. D 根據上下文及信息詞cells可確定句中是指所有的部位(器官)。而其他三項所指的都是身體的具體部位。
5. C 此句中的did是用來代替前面的動詞function，以避免重復。因為這里有一個表示過去的時間狀語in childhood and teenage years，所以只能用一般過去時。
6. B protection“保護，保護物”，和介詞against或from連用，譯為“保護……免遭……”。此句義為“身體此時的免疫力下降，易于患病”；energy“精力，活力”； vigor“力量，活力”；power“權力，力氣”。
7. A likely, possible和probable它們三者都表示“可能”，均可以構成：It is possible / probable / likely ＋that從句。但probable 和possible不能用于sb．is possible / probable to do sth.句型中。如：It will be possible / probable / likely for you to get there before eight o'clock.你有可能在8點鐘之前趕到那里。 You will be likely to get there before 8 o'clock. 你很有可能在8點鐘之前趕到那里。alike“相似的”，不符句意。
8. B 根據句義：有一些相關的原因可能促使人衰老。contribute to“有助于，起作用，促成”，此意義符合句義。attend to“專心于”；add to“增加，把……添加到……”；devote to“致力于，獻身于”。這四個詞組中的to都是介詞，要注意它和不定式符號to的區別。
9. A 此句與下文相對應，根據下文第十一空之后出現的replace (代替)可確定該空選replaced；reborn“新生的，復活的”；recovered“恢復”；surrendered “屈服”
10. C 根據此句的謂語動詞decreases可確定其主語應為the number，表示 “……的數量”，作主語時，應該使用單數的謂語動詞；a number of“許多，大量”常用來修飾復數名詞，做主語時，要使用復數謂語動詞；the amount of“……的數量是”，常接不可數名詞；a great deal of “大量的”，后接不可數名詞。
11. D 根據這一段里談到的不同情況的細胞，上文用了some cells of the body不能再生，很顯然下文中用other body cells可以被新的細胞所代替。這樣other與上文的some相呼應。其他詞都不能起此作用。
12. C 根據上文的意思，這里還在繼續談論第二種可再生細胞，即：the new cells。
13. C be capable of是固定搭配，表示“有……的能力”。句中指：老年人的新細胞的發展能力不如年輕人的強。其他介詞不與capable搭配。
14. A 這一段的內容是和上段相對應的，所需詞相當于上段第一句中的cause，指造成一種事實或現象的原因，所以選用factor，表“因素，要素”。其他幾個詞雖然語義相近，但所強調的重點并不相同。effect“結果”；reason“原因”，用來說明一種看法或行為的理由；element“元素”。
15. C 此句意是：另一個導致衰老的因素是細胞內本身的變化。由此可得出，空格處需填一個作同位語的名詞或代詞，那么四個選項中，就只有themselves可擔當此任，即：反身代詞themselves做cells的同位語。
16. C 本句是被動句式，其主動句式是：It is known that some of the protein chemicals in cells change with age and become less elastic。意為：大家知道細胞內有些蛋白質隨著年齡的增大而改變，變得沒有那么有彈性。又如：It is known that a new hospital will be built here. = A new hospital is known to be built here。在敘述一般性事物時，動詞know之后的不定式不用進行式和完成式。
17. A hang在這里是用作系動詞，后面須接一個形容詞作表語，類似的動詞還有： rise，shine，sit，lie等，如：The sun rose red． (= The sun rose and it is red．)。本句除了要注意hang是系動詞外，還要注意時態的選擇。因為通篇文章所談論的是人人都要變老的客觀事實，所用時態都為一般現在時，不能用進行時。
18. B 根據句義“這就是為什么老人的身高會收縮的原因”，因此表“收縮”的只有shrink；increase“增加”和1engthen“變長”與句義不符； decrease“減少”，一般強調量的減少，也不符合題義。特別說明的是shrink這個詞平常用得不太多，但它仍然是中學英語“新課標”詞匯，它的過去式形式是shrank或shrunk，過去分詞形式是shrunk 或shrunken。
19. D 根據上下文內容應選pass on，表示“把……傳給另一個，轉移”，句中store and pass on information指“儲存和傳遞信息”，符合句意。其他三個選項都不符句意。pass away“去世”；pass by“經過，從……旁邊走過”；pass off“逐漸消失，停止”。
20. D 從通篇文章所敘述的人的衰老的過程分析，我們應該在此處選填process。表示“自然的過程，進程”，符合上下文意義；即：衰老可能影響這種進程和改變信息；improvement“改良”；procession“隊伍，行列”；approach“方式，方法”。

Hill enrolled（注冊） in a wig-making 28 in New York．Back home with what she learned, she started making wigs that she planned to 29 for $300 each．
