阅读理解。    There have been many great inventions or things that changed the way we live. The first great invention
was the one that is still very important today--the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things and to
travel long distance.
    For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that as much effect as the wheel. Then in the
early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn"t have
to explore much any more. They began to work instead to make life better.
    In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera,
the light and the radio. These all play a big part in our daily life today.
    The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909, movies with sound
in 1926, the computer in 1928, jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made.
Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore.
    The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked
very well. They made people healthier and allowed them to live longer. By the 1960s most people could expect
to live to be at least 60.
     By this time most people in developed countries had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued
to be made. But man now had a desire (渴望) to explore again. The earth was known to man but the stars
were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then United States took
a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their own steps into space.
    In 1969 man took his biggest step away from earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly
just a beginning, though. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of. 1. This passage talks mainly about            .

[     ]

A. why cars were very important
B. when light was invented
C. how inventions affect people"s daily life
D. which country made the first step into space 2. According to the passage man didn"t have a desire to explore a lot            .

B. their life better

阅读理解:读A、B两篇短文,根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

     Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes(基因)decide. In fact, because you have two
parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If
both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall
you"re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out. 
     But genes don"t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your
full potential (潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height. 
     No doubt (怀疑) you"re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There"s no perfect or right
answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when
they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up). 
    Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches
there are not nearly as important as the height you"re at now, how you"ve been growing up to this point, and
what other changes your body may be going through.
     Don"t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰)
during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or
later … between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys. 
    You"ll usually begin to notice that you"re growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the
first changes of puberty.

1. The Chinese for the word "puberty" is ________.
[     ]
A. 童年时期
B. 婴幼儿时期
C. 习惯养成期
D. 生长发育期
2. If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, ________.
[     ]
A. you should have enough exercise
B. you can ask doctors for help
C. you should save the environment
D. You can record your growth during puberty
3. This passage is mainly about ________.
[     ]
A. how the genes work in your body
B. when is the time you grow fast
C. why you look like your parents
D. how you grow to a certain height
4. After reading this passage, we can explain ________.
[     ]
A. how good it is to be a doctor
B. how much sleep time we need
C. why genes can"t decide everything
D. what healthy diet is
5. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
[     ]
A. Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are.
B. Girls" age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys".
C. The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.
D. You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.
