5．I was driving past our town park the Saturday before Easter last year and noticed a large group of adults putting thousands of plastic eggs around the park in preparation for an Easter egg hunt．The eggs were in plain sight，consistent with the current thinking that no child should be expected to work up a sweat．The children were lined up behind a rope，the smallest in front，to get first crack at the egg，applying a standard of fairness that exists nowhere in the world that I know of．
When I was a kid，the town kept its nose out of the Easter egg business．The day before Easter，my mother went to Johnston's IGA（a grocery store） and bought three dozen eggs，vinegar，and food coloring．While she was boiling the eggs，we poured hot water，vinegar，and food coloring in coffee cups，and spread the Saturday morning indianapolis Star on the kitchen table．Then，we dipped the eggs in cups．
My oldest brother，Glenn，hid the eggs in roof gutters 30 feet aboe the ground，buried them in the center of thorn bushes，beneath foundation stones and in snake holes，any place that could result in our death or disfigurement while hunting for them．It took us weeks to find them，and some we never did discover would work their way to the Earth's surface the next winter．
Usually，one of us found way more eggs than the other four of us---usually Glenn，since he had hidden them in the first place．Complaining was useless，since our parents wouldn't have done anything about it except to tell us to stop complaining．It would never have occurred to them to place the eggs in plain sight，or to take us by the hand and guide us from egg to egg，or to urge the bigger children to leave some eggs for the smaller children．
Will the kids in our town have such fun if we keep coddling （spoiling） them？

B．It was tiring．
C．It was boring．

A．They treated it fairly．
B．They took it seriously．
C．They played no part in it．
D．They punished the complainer．

17．Evaluating Sources （来源） of Health InformationMaking good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation．A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of health information．Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information，how to separate fact from opinion，how to recognize poor reasoning，and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources．（41）G
Go to the original source．Media reports often simplify the results of medical research．Find out for yourself what a study really reported，and determine whether it was based on good science．Think about the type of study．（42）D
Watch for misleading language．Some studies will find that a behavior"contributes to"or is"associated with"an outcome；this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result．（43）F Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it．
Use your common sense．If a report seems too good to be true，probably it is．Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements．（44）B Evaluate"scientific"statements carefully，and be aware of quackery（江湖骗术）．

14．1By 2050，a completely new type of human will evolve as a result of extremely new technology，behaviour，and natural selection．This is according to Cadell Last，a researcher at the Global Brain Institute，who claims mankind is undergoing a major"evolutionary transition"．
In less than four decades，Mr Last claims we will live longer，have children in old age and rely on artificial intelligence to do ordinary and boring tasks．This shift is so significant，he claims，it is comparable to the change from monkeys to apes，and apes to humans．"Your 80 or 100 is going to be so radically different than your grandparents，"Mr Last says，who believes we will spend much of our time living in virtual reality．Some evolutionary scientists believe this age could be as high as 120 by 2050．
Mr Last claims humans will also demonstrate delayed maturation，according to a report by Christina Sterbenz in Business Insider．This refers to something known as life history theory which attempts to explain how natural selection shapes key events in a creature's life，such as reproduction．It suggests that as brain sizes increase，organisms need more energy and time to reach their full potential，and so reproduce less．
Instead of living fast and dying younger，Mr Last believes humans will live slow and die old．"Global society at the moment is a complete mess，"he told MailOnline．"But in crisis there is opportunity，and in apocalypse（启示） there can be transformation．So I think the next system humanity creates will be far more sophisticated，fair，and abundant than our curent civilization．"
"I think our next system will be as different from the modern world，as our contemporary world is from the medieval（中世纪的） world．The biological clock isn't going to be around forever，"he added，and said that people could pause it for some time using future technology．
The change is already happening．Today，the average age at which a woman in Britain has her first baby has been rising steadily at 29.8．In the US，just one percent of first children were born to women over the age of 35 in 1970．By 2012，that figure rose to 15 percent．
"As countries become socioeconomically advanced，more and more people，especially women have the option to engage in cultural reproduction，"Mr Last added．And as well as having more childfree years to enjoy leisure time，he believes artificial intelligence will make up the need for lowskill jobs．We may also spend a large amount of time living in virtual reality．"I'm not quite sure most people have really absorbed the implications of this possibility，"Mr Last said．
His views are detailed in a paper，titled"Human Evolution，Life History Theory，and the End of Biological Reproduction"published Current Aging Science．

58．Which statement is compared by Mr Last to the change from monkeys to apes，and apes to humans？
B 
A．We have diseases and die young．
B．We use intelligent robots to do everyday housework．
C．We spend less time in virtual reality．
D．We give birth to a child when we are young．
59．The underlined words in the third paragraph most probably mean"A"．
A．Organisms need more energy and time to ripen．
B．Natural selection shapes key events．
C．Reproduction．
D．Reproduce less．
60．In the next system Mr Last explained we can infer thatC． 
A．women are engaged in cultural reproduction in place of men
B．women are engaged in playing computer games rather than working
C．women are engaged in careers or hobbies instead of giving birth to babies
D．women are engaged in living in virtual reality without options．
15．The girl received no approval of her family as her marriage with an African boy was considered as a
       from tradition．（　　）
A．departureB．disturbanceC．declineD．discrimination
