paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology (生物技术). With the help of new
medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and
war. Today"s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change
in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live, Human brains wer
e known to decide the final death. Cells (细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently,
scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials
of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new
medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10
years or so, people will be able to take medicine repair their organs (器官). The medicine, made up of the
basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on-in much the same way our
bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of
human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.

of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose
your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of
food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and
choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one
sense.
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The
giant panda (大熊猫) eats only one particular type of bamboo (竹子). Other animals eat only one type of food
even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly (蝴蝶) will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though
there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet (多样化饮
食). The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will
be different depending on the season.
Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In
countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight,
which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad
for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.

for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors can"t fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to
try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person
worse if he operates on the brain.
Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors
should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This
gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.
Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, then he operated on
them. He made the monkeys" blood back to the monkeys" brains. When the brain"s temperature was 10℃,
Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the
blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and
busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.

allowed and dog owners must walk their dogs.
This comes after a national law was passed to give prison sentences to people who desert cats or
dogs.
"The civilization of a city can be measured by this," said Monica Carina, the councilor (议员) behind
the new law.
"It"s good to do whatever we can for our animals who in exchange for a little love fill our existence
with their attention," she told a Rome newspaper.
The newspaper reported that round bowls don"t give enough oxygen for fish and may make them go
blind.
"Rome has tried to protect fish more than anywhere else in the world. It stands out for recognizing
that fish are interesting animals who deserve(值得) over respect and compassion every bit as much as
dogs and cats and other animals," said Karin Robertson, a director of the People for the Ethical Treatment
of Animals.
Last year a law was passed in Italy that gives people who desert pets big fines (罚款) and prison
sentences. Since then local governments have added their own animal protection rules.
The northern city of Turin passed a law in April to give pet owners fines of up to $598 if they do not
walk their dogs three times a day.
The new law in Rome also says that owners mustn"t leave their dogs in hot cars or cut their dogs" tails
to make them look lovelies. The law also gives legal recognition to the"cat ladies" who feed homeless cats.

food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly, The symptoms of food

Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of
seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.
When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small Microorganisms multiply rapidly
in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with ditty hands or
put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from gnawing.
Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food
covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat raid mushrooms or other foods that grow
in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some
types of fish can be poisonous.
Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat
