复合题The aging process may not be the result of a rigid genetic program that in itself dictates longevity. On the contrary, what we see as maximum life span may simply be the complex and indirect result of multiple traits in the organism that are internally tied to normal development. In other words, it is not that the body is somehow pre-programmed to acquire gray hair, wrinkles, or diminished metabolic(新陈代谢的) functions. Rather, these signs of aging are simply telltale side effects of activities of the organism.Consider the analogy of an “aging car”. Suppose a distinctive “species” of automobile were designed to burn fuel at a fixed temperature with an efficient rate of combustion(燃烧) . That specific rate of combustion is required for appropriate acceleration, cruising speed, fuel mileage(油耗) and so on. But, when the car functions in this way over a period of time, the car also, of necessity, produces certain emission by-products that, over time, begin to clog the cylinders, reduce automotive efficiency, and lead to the breakdown and final collapse of the machine.In the case of the human “car”, it could be the burning oxygen in normal metabolism generates harmful by-products in free radicals that prove toxic to the organism. What we see here may be a basic trade-off: oxygen is essential for life yet harmful to our eventual well-being. In this view, the human “car” is not intentionally designed to accumulate toxic emissions in order to collapse. But there seems to be no way for the car to function at optimum levels without the destructive by- products.But suppose we could find some special “fuel additive” that eliminates toxic emissions. Would we then have an “immortal” car? Probably not. Changing the fuel used in your car won’t prevent accidents, nor would any fuel additive prevent rusting or the wearing down of springs and shock absorbers. The human “car” analogy, of course, is misleading, because an organism, unlike a manufactured object, has a capacity for repair and self-generation, at least up to certain point. The whole question about why we grow old is finding out why that capacity for self-repair ultimately seems unable to keep up with the damage rate: in short, why aging and death seem to be universal.

复合题It is a common problem in the non-family owned private limited company: a shareholder/director wants to retire or leave the business, but one or more of his fellow shareholders/directors want to continue.【C1】 It is easy enough for a director to retire, but the likehood is that he will want to cash in on his shares which have accumulated some value over the period of his participations in the business.Frequently, though, his fellow shareholder/director(s) do not have the financial resources to acquire the shares at their market value. A wide variety of options exit, but purchased own shares by the company is one of the most useful. Purchase of own shares is exactly what says it is: the company acquires the shares from the shareholder. In principle, it is a simple concept but one which is covered by a number of very important legislative provisions, both in company and tax law. 【C2】 Although at first sight the legislation appears to obstruct what might otherwise be a simple process, it actually exists to facilitate the purchase, while protecting the creditor (so far as company la is concerned).In fact, the provisions are too numerous to cover in detail in few words and this article is designed only to outline the rules, regulations and options. Professional advice and assistance should always be sought to implement any purchase of own shares.【C3】It was always the case that a company could not acquirer its own share, because in doing so it was obtaining ownership of itself, which is contrary to the most fundamental legal principles surrounding the nature and existences of companies.The Companies Art 1981 changed all that and the provisions it introduced are now incorporated into me Companies Act 1985.【C4】 In essence, provided a company is permitted to do so by its Memorandum, and Articles bof Association, any company can now acquire its own shares (subject to there being at least one left).Because purchase of own shares is a relatively recent innovation, many companies, Memorandum and Articles of Association do not contain this provision but appropriate provisions can be included by Special Resolution, requiring a 75%.【C5】 Although the purchase must normally be made out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares and/of distributable profits, important provisions exist for private companies to make the purchase out of capital.If distributable profits are insufficient then, provided the company s solvent after the redemption and is believed by the directors to be a going concern for a further year (a statutory declaration on which the auditors must report and concur), then the purchase can go ahead.
