  Mrs. Mathews lived in a small town where there was one jeweler's shop. It also took in watch repairs, although it had to 1 them off to London for the work to be done, as there was not enough 2 for an expert watch repairer.

  When Mrs. Mathews's old father died, she inherited(继承) his gold watch, which had 3 to his father and grandfather before him. It was big and heavy and worth a lot of money, but it was 4 , so Mrs. Mathews took it to be repaired.

  The man in the jeweler's shop was very interested to see such an 5 watch, and when he had examined its 6 , he said he could certainly have it repaired for her. “It'll 7 a long time once that's been done,” he said. He wrote out a 8 and gave it to Mrs. Mathews saying, “Please bring this when you come to pick up the watch. But it might take a bit of time, because it isn't a 9 watch.”

  But Mrs. Mathews had a lot of things to 10 with after her father died. The 11 was that she completely forgot about the watch that she had taken in for repair, and about the 12 for it, which she had put away in a drawer to keep it safe.

  Then, while she was looking 13 some old drawer one day, she found the ticket for the watch repair.

  “What's this?” she said to herself.“A ticket for a watch repair? Who took a watch in to be repaired? And why didn't they give this ticket in when they want to pick it up?”

  She thought back, and suddenly she 14 . “My father's gold watch!” she thought. “Didn't I pick it up? When did I take it in?” She looked at the ticket again.

“How old is this ticket?” she said to herself.It was five years old. Mrs. Mathews had heard that shops could sell things that people had 15 with them if they didn't pick them up and 16 for them before a certain time. “But the watch might still be there,” she thought.“I'll go and see 17 I can get it back. It might have been sold, but I hope not.”

  She took the ticket to the jeweler's the next time she went out shopping, and the 18 looked at it and then went to look for the watch 19 saying a word.

  “That's good,” Mrs. Mathews thought. “He didn't seem to mind about the date.”

  The man came back after a few minutes and said, “It won't be 20 until Friday.”

  If you want to stay young, .sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who said that most of our brains are not getting enough 1 ; and as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily 2 .

  Professor Matsuzsawa wanted to fund out why quite 3 farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to 4 and reason (推理) at a rather early age, and how the speed of getting old could be 5 down.

  With a team of researchers at Tokyo National University, he set about 6 brain volumes (容量) of a thousand people of different ages with different jobs.

  Computer technology helped the researchers to get most 7 measures of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which 8 something to do with intellect (智力) and feelings, and 9 the human characters. As we all know, the back part of the brain, which 10 tasks like eating and breathing, does not contract (萎缩)with ages.

  Contraction of front and side parts was 11 in some people in their thirties, 12 it wag still not found in some sixtyyearold.

  Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to 13 the contraction 14 the head.

  The findings show that contraction of the brain begins 15 in people in the 16 than in the towns, Those with 17 possibility are lawyers, 18 by university professors and doctors. 19 workers doing the same work 20 in government offices are as likely to have contracting brains as the farm workers.

Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket--- anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.

It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th  birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set up his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.

The following year he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s school of adventure in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.

In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition(探险) towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite(冻疮), ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled(雪橇) up and over rocky ice. www.zxxk.com

Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.

Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.

1.What change happened to Saunders after he was 15 years old?

A. He became good at most sports.   B. He made friends with a runner.

C. He joined a sports team.          D. He began to build up his body.

2.The underlined word “exploits” (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to ______.

A. journeys      B. adventures   C.researches                      D. operations

3.Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders?

a. He ran his first marathon.               b. He skied alone in the North Pole.

c. He rode his bike in a forest.      d. He planned an adventure to the South Pole.

A. a c d b                     B. c d a b           C. c a b d                     D.a c b d 

4. What does the story mainly tell us abut Saunders?

A. He is a success in sports.                         B. He is the best British skier.

C. He is Ridgway’s best student. `     D. He is a good instructor at school.
