    Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.
    Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.
    “Surgery(外科手术)”, one replied. I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job. One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows, you can get at least 5cm taller!”
    At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of agony(痛苦) just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall! It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.
    No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost. In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career

    Like distance runners on a measured course，all of us will move through time in a roughly predictable pattern．
    In the first stage of our lives，we develop and grow, reaching toward the top of physical vitality(活力)．
    After we grow up，however, the body begins a process of gradually wearing out．
    A new awareness of physical fitness may help lengthen our years of health and vitality，yet nothing we do will work to stop the unavoidable force of aging．
    Most of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body．The lungs become less able to take in oxygen．Powerful muscles gradually lose their strength．The heart loses power and pumps less blood．Bones grow easier to break．
    Finally, we meet a stress，a stress that is greater than our physical resistance．Often，it is only a minor accident or chance infection(a disease caused by virus)，but this time，it brings life to an end．
    In 1932，a classic experiment nearly doubled the lifetime of rats，simply by cutting back the calories in their diet The reason for the effect was then unknown．
    Today, at the University of California at Berkley, Dr．Paul Seagle has also greatly lengthened the normal lifetime of rats．The result was achieved through a special protein limited diet，which had a great effect on the chemistry of the brain．Seagle showed that within the brain，specific chemicals control many of the signals that influence aging．By changing that chemical balance，the clock of aging can be reset．
    For the first time, the mystery of why we age is being seriously challenged．Scientists in many fields are now making striking and far-reaching discoveries．
    An average lifetime lasts 75 years，yet in each of us lies a potential for a longer life．If we could keep the vitality and resistance to disease that we have at age twenty, we would live for 800 years．

    John Russell, aged 83, got on a Chicago bus and saw a sign saying that senior citizens(老年公民) could ride (or take buses) for half fare(费用). When he dropped his three quarters in the box, the driver demanded (or asked for) identification(身份证明). John took out an ID card. “You need a special CTA card,” said the driver. John did not have the Chicago Transit Authority(交通管理署) card because he lives in New York and was in Chicago visiting his two sons.
    “Put in another three quarters,” said the driver, “or get off the bus.”
    One privilege(专利;特权) of old age is being stubborn (固执). John said, “ Give me back my quarters, and I'll get off.”
    “I can’t — it’s in the box. If you don’t get off, I’ll call the police,” said he, which he did. Two police cars pulled up.
    “I’m the criminal(罪犯),” said John Russell. Then he and the driver told their stories.
    “That’s what you called me for?” one policeman asked the driver. Another police¬man then said to John, “I'll give you three quarters.”
    John shook his head, “Why should you give me the quarters? He has to give me my quarters.”
    “Where are you going?” asked the policemen.
    “Downtown to have lunch with friends,” John said.
    “Come on,” the policemen said. “We’ll get you your card.” So they took him down¬town to the CTA office. But the people there wouldn’t give him a CTA card --- he needed a picture.
    “What about his quarters?” one policeman asked. The officials discussed, and the decision was made to give John’s quarters back.
    When John got downstairs, the policemen asked where he was going.
    “To see my friends,” John said.
    “How are you going to get there?”
    “On the bus. And all I’m going to pay is 75 cents.”
    “Good luck,” the policemen said.
    John got on a bus, dropped three quarters in the box, and said, “I’m a senior citizen...” The driver looked at John and nodded. He didn’t know how lucky he was to be a sensible(通情达理的)man

    Plants can’t communicate by moving or making sounds, as most animals do. Instead, plants Produce volatile compounds, chemicals that easily change from a liquid to a gas. A flower’s sweet smell, for example, comes from volatile compounds that the plant produces to attract insects such as Bugs and bees.
    Plants can also detect volatile compounds produced by other plants. A tree under attack by Hungry insets, for instance, may give off volatile compounds that let other trees know about the Attack. In response, the other trees may send off chemicals to keep the bugs away ——or even  Chemicals that attract the bugs’ natural enemies.
    Now scientists have created a quick way to understand what plants are saying: a chemical Sensor（传感器）called an electronic nose. The “e-nose” can tell compounds that crop plants make When they’re attacked Scientists say the e-nose could help quickly detect whether plants are being Eaten by insects. But today the only way to detect such insects is to visually inspect individual Plants. This is a challenging task for managers of greenhouses, enclosed gardens than can house Thousands of plants.
    The research team worked with an e-nose than recognizes volatile compounds. Inside the device, 13 sensors chemically react with volatile compounds Based on these interactions, the e-nose gives off electronic signals that the scientists analyze using computer software.
    To test the nose, the team presented it with healthy leaves from cucumber, pepper and tomato plants, all common greenhouse crops. Then scientists collected samples of air around damaged leaves from each type of crop, These plants had been damaged by insects, or by scientists who made holes in the leaves with a hole punch（打孔器）. The e-nose, it turns out, could identify healthy cucumber, pepper and tomato plants based on The volatile compounds they produce, It could also identify tomato leaves that had been damaged. But even more impressive, the device could tell which type of damage ---- by insects or with a hole Punch ---- had been done to the tomato leaves.
    With some fine-tuning, a device like the e-nose could one day be used in greenhouses to quickly spot harmful bugs, the researchers say. A device like this could also be used to identify fruits that are perfectly ripe and ready to pick and eat, says Natalia Dudareva, a biochemist at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. who studies smells of flowers and plants. Hopefully, scientists believe, the device could bring large benefits to greenhouse managers in the near future

    1. 1.

      We learn from the text that plants communicate with each other by____

      1. A.
        making some sounds
      2. B.
        waving their leaves
      3. C.
        producing some chemicals
      4. D.
        sending out electronic signals
    2. 2.

      What did the scientists do to find out if the e-nose worked?

      1. A.
        They presented it with all common crops
      2. B.
        They fixed 13 sensors inside the device
      3. C.
        They collected different damaged leaves
      4. D.
        They made tests on damaged and healthy leaves
    3. 3.

      According to the writer, the most amazing thing about the e-nose is that it can___

      1. A.
        pick out ripe fruits
      2. B.
        spot the insects quickly
      3. C.
        distinguish different damages to the leaves
      4. D.
        recognize unhealthy tomato leaves
    4. 4.

      We can infer from the last paragraph that the e-nose_____

      1. A.
        is unable to tell the smell of flowers
      2. B.
        is not yet used in greenhouses
      3. C.
        is designed by scientists at Purdue

    In tradition (传统的) education, the teacher may feel that the students are not very grown up. Usually, teachers are older than students, and teachers feel that students are young and do not know much about the world. The teachers feel that they must tell the students what to do most of the time, and that they must also make the students study specific (特殊的) things. In open education, the teacher’s methods are very different. These teachers feel that the students are human beings (人) first, and students second. They expect the students to be responsible for the things that they do, just as adults are. A student’s ideas and feelings are just as important as the teacher’s. The teacher allows the students to decide what they want to do, and does not make them study what they do not want to. The teacher lets them decide what to study and how much to study.
