We are just getting older and older with each New Year. Vigor and wisdom
are draining, and bit by bit we are moving away from the amazement of youth.
Yet neither fear nor anxiety helps retain youth. Instead, a few living habits
help maintain.
●Laugh to your heart's content as much as you can. Laughter helps reduce
pressure and improve your immune system, which makes people look 8 years younger.
●Keep an eye on your blood pressure. Those with a blood pressure of 115/75mmHg look 2.5 years younger than those above 160/90mmHg.
●Quit smoking and avoid passive smoking. This can take 8 years off your appearance.
●Spare some time for exercises each day. Exercises need not be tiring. A 20 minute walk every day makes people look 5 years younger.
●Keep learning and absorb something new each day. Speak the same language as the young people. Learning something every day makes people look 2.5 years younger.
●Keep other pressures under control. Too much pressure makes people look 30 years older. If they are good at networking and manage to keep pressure under control, they will look 30 years younger.
●Secure high quality medical care insurance and do whole body check regularly. For those contracted with chronicle diseases, proper treatment and qualification of the diseases makes people look 12 years younger than what they would without proper treatment.
63. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. the important of retaining youth    B. some tips helping people retain youth
C. moving away from the amazement of youth
D. the connections between the health and the age
64. The underlined sentence “This can take 8 years off your appearance.” means _________.
A. Smoking and passive smoking can make you look 8 years younger
B. Smoking and passive smoking can make you die 8 years ahead
C. Giving up smoking and avoiding passive smoking can make you live 8 years longer
D. Giving up smoking and avoiding passive smoking can make you look 8 years younger
65. According to the passage, we can know that _________.
A. exercises properly every day helps people retain youth
B. if you want to be 30 years younger you must keep other pressures under control
C. doing whole body check regularly can make people look younger
D. fear and anxiety are a part of our life, which help people realize the importance of keeping youth

C
(1)Mr. Brown(the motorist)
At about 9∶20 p.m. on October 14th, I was driving along Market Road in the direction of Midwick. I wanted to go to Sturham to collect my wife, who had been visiting some friends. I prepared to turn into Sturham Road, which was on my right. In the distance, I saw the lights of a car moving towards me but it was a long way from me. I put out my hand to show that I was going to turn right. Then I started to turn slowly towards Sturham Road. Suddenly there was a loud noise on the passenger’s (near) side of the car. I stopped the car and got out. A motorcycle had hit my car. The motorcyclist had been thrown over the car. He was injured, so I ran to a shop to phone for help.
(2)Mr. Smith (the injured motorcyclist)
On the evening of October 14th, I was going home along Market Road towards Newtown. I was riding my motorcycle. I was going slowly because some of the streetlights were out and the road was wet and slippery. Just before Sturham Road, a car suddenly drove right across my path. The driver did not flash his lights to give a warning. I could not turn in time, so I hit the side of the car. When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital in Market Road.
(3)Mr. Lee (another motorcyclist)
At about 9∶10p.m.on October 14th, I left my home in Midwick. Ten minutes later I was riding my motorcycle along Market Road. I was going to Newtown. There was a motorcycle about 40 metres in front of me. It was not going very quickly. The man on it was riding near the curb(路邊) but I was near the center of the road. The motorcyclist in front of me tried to turn to his right but there was no time. He hit the car and was injured. There was no car going along in front of us or put by the road.
50.Which or these pictures exactly shows the scene of the accident?
X=the place where the motorcycle hit the car; N=Newtown; M=Midwick; S=Sturham. (Note that cars and motorcycles always keep to the left in England.)

A.Mr. Brown wrongly supposed that the lights of the two motorcycles were those of a car.
B.The lights of the car moving towards Mr. Brown made him unable to see.
C.Mr. Brown knocked down a motorcyclist on purpose.
D.The accident was caused by the carelessness of the first motorcyclist.

B.did not give any signal until he was actually turning
C.failed to give a proper signal at that time
D.flashed his light to show that he was going to turn
