He watched quite a lot of American NBA basketball games. Not only did he watch them, he spent much of his free time playing on the court too. Then came the final year of his middle school. All of his regular teammates stopped showing up on the court because they were simply too busy preparing for the high school entrance exam to play. He was, of course, under much stress himself, like everyone else. A good exam result meant a good high school; a mediocre(平庸的) score meant a mediocre school. Much was at stake. However, he loved basketball so much that he still found time to play, this time with a group of guys who were said to have skipped classes(逃课) before.Some of his teachers started worrying about him. They asked his mother to go to school to let her know that Jack was hanging out with problem kids. When his mother returned home that day, she wanted to talk to Jack. Knowing the purpose of her visit to the school, Jack thought his mother would punish him for befriending those bad guys. To his surprise, his mother was not angry with him at all. She wanted to hear her sons side of the story. So Jack told his mother about what he knew of Simon and Peter. Simons parents were badly ill; Peters father had lost his job. They both seemed to Jack to be normal kids. Jacks mother thought for a moment, then went on to say that she was OK with her son playing with them and that she and her son should think of ways to help these kids. Soon Jacks mum introduced some part-time jobs to Simon and Peter, which they accepted. She believed in her son and cared about those who were less lucky.Jacks basketball friends and he have left for different places, but they still keep in touch. He knows Peter is now a manager of a local bank. Simon is currently a freshman at a university. Sadly, it is impossible to get together to play basketball again, but whenever they get on the phone, they talk about it all the time.（1）After Jacks mother came home from school, she . A . was angry with himB . told him what his teachers had saidC . asked him to keep away from problem kidsD . was patient enough to listen to her sons words（2）What does the underlined sentence Much was at stake probably mean in the passage? A . Jack must be punished by his mother.B . Jack might not enter a good high school.C . Jack might get hurt when playing basketball.D .

Some people are super-agers, who are over the age of 80, but have the brain of much younger people.Scientists know that parts of the brain become smaller in size with age. But the change of the super-agers goes much more slowly. In her recent study, Emily Rogalski, a neuroscientist (神经科学家), showed that super-agers have young brains. The area of the brain for attention and memory (记忆) was shown to be thicker in super-agers. When we look at a super-agers brain, we see that it looks more like a 50-year-old brain than an 80-year-old one.Scientists say super-agers have several things in common, including an active lifestyle. Most of them like travelling and playing sports. They always enjoy reading. They usually have healthy relationships and spend time with friends.Growing old, she adds, does not have to be depressing (令人沮丧的) and sad. Perhaps, if we expect a little better from ourselves, well understand that not all getting old makes us sad.Rogalski said jokingly that super-agers do not grow on trees- meaning they are special and few. She says she wants to find out why a super-agers mind is working so well and not getting old as quickly as most. The science behind super-agers is a new, but growing field. It attracts many scientists. Scientists in the research offer the advice to us: Stay active. Learn new things. Challenge yourself. Develop healthy relationships.（1）Super-agers are people _. A . over 80 with older brainsB . over 80 with younger brainsC . under 80 with older brainsD . under 80 with younger brains（2）This passage is probably from a _.

All of us can become super-agers naturally.C . We may also become super-agers if we follow the advice.D . We can become super-agers without following the advice.（4）We can infer from the passage that _. A . super-agers are common and very easy to find in our livesB . scientists have found out why a super-agers mind works so well.C . few super-agers like traveling, playing sports and doing readingD . more and more scientists may get into the study of the super-agers4. （10分）阅读理解 Cathy is 1.53meters tall, but she is 160pounds.
