  Some people want to be sent into space after their death, others want to lie deep under the sea.But most people want to go into the freezer(冷藏库).These are believers in cryogenics(低温冷冻学).

  Now some diseases can't be cured, but they may be cured sometime in the future.So some people hope that their bodies can be frozen after they die.When a cure is found,warm up his or her body, bring it back to life and take the cure.Once the body is frozen, it is kept in liquid nitrogen(液态氮)at a temperature of 328 degrees below zero.

  Now around a thousand people are going to take cryogenic treatment(处理), though most scientists say it won't work.If we freeze huge creatures(生物)like humans, every one of their cells(细胞)will be broken.Can they be brought back to life in the future?

  阅读短文,然后根据其内容回答下列问题.

1.Where do most people hope that their bodies are kept after their death?

________

2.Why do they want the world to keep their bodies well?

3.How do scientists usually keep a dead man's body?

4.How many people are going to take cryogenic treatment after they die?

5.Can a man who died of cancer come back to life in the future if his body is frozen?Why?

答案:
解析:

  1.In the freezer.答案就在“But most people want to go into the freezer.”这句话中.但要注意most一词方能正确解答.

  2.They hope that they can come back to life one day.“…When a cure is found, warm up his or her body,bring it back to life and take the cure.”是答题的依据.

  3.They usually keep it in liquid nitrogen at a temperature of 328 degrees below zero.显然,答案出自“Once the body is frozen, it is kept in liquid nitrogen(液态氮)at a temperature of 328 degrees below zero.”这句话中.

  4.Around 1000 people.本题属表层理解题.由“Now around a thousand people are going to take cryogenic treatment(处理),though most scientists say it won't work.”可知,

  5.No,he can't.“…Because every one of his cells will be broken.” “…it won't work.If we freeze huge creatures(生物)like humans, every one of their cells(细胞)will be broken.”是答案的出处.

  这篇小品文的意思是:有很多人希望死后被送进冷藏库,将尸体保存在零下320度的液态氮中.等将来医疗条件允许,可以治愈时,再解冻,接受治疗,就可以死回生了.尽管科学家们对此想法表示怀疑,仍有一千多人打算接受低温处理.
