单选题How should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate is. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques. I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves. " Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings. However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour-glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antiques should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past. Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by the time, why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?
单选题Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth. Imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength. Imitation is unacceptable. In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else' s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child' s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them. In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others. In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors. Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say, "I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors" tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering on.

单选题Aging
Throughout history man has had to accept the fact that all living things must die, but people now live longer than they used to. Yet all living things still show the
31
of aging, which will eventually
32
death.
Aging is not a disease, but as a person passes maturity, the cells of the body and the
33
do not function as well as they did in childhood and adolescence (青春期). The body provides less
34
against disease and is more likely
35
have accident.
A number of related causes may
36
aging. Some cells of the body have a fairly long life, but they are not reborn when they die. As a person ages,
37
of brain cells and muscle cells decreases. The other cells are replaced by new cells. In an aging person the
38
cells and muscle cells may not be as viable (能生存的) or as capable
39
growth as those of a young person.
Another
40
in aging may be changes within the cells themselves. Some of the protein chemicals in cells are known
41
with age and became less elastic. This is why the skin of old people wrinkles and
42
. This is also the reason old people
43
in height. There may not be other more important chemical changes in the cells. Some complex cell chemicals, such as DNA and RNA, store and
44
information that the cells need. Aging may affect this
45
and change the information-carry molecules so that they do not transmit the information as well.
