When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was very short, what’s more, something was wrong with his foot. When we walked together, people would laugh at us. So he always said, “You go by yourself. I will try to catch up with you.”

It’s far from my home to his factory, and he went there on foot. No matter how bad the weather was, he almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not. 83When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk, even with help. However, he never talked about himself. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.

Once, a fight broke out at a beach party, nobody would stop it. Though my father couldn’t stand up, he began to shout, “I’ll fight anyone who will sit down with me!” Nobody did, and the fight was over. I was really proud of him.

When I played ball (poorly), he “played” too. When I joined the Navy, he “joined” too. Once, I visited his office. Introducing me, he was really saying, “This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different.” Those words were never said aloud.

84He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I think of him when I complain about something terrible, when I don’t have a “good heart”. Only then could I remember his words, “You go by yourself. I will try to catch up with you.”

     Happiness is U-shaped, for we are happier at the start and end of our lives but hit a slump (低潮) when
we are middle-aged, scientists from England and America say. They have studied the information on the
mental (心理的) health of two million people from 80 countries.
     In England, the probability of low spirits for men and women reaches the highest point at around 44 years
of age. In America, though, there is a big difference between men and women. Among women, unhappiness
reaches the highest point at around the age of 40, but among men, it is about 50.
     But the U-shape of happiness is unchanging around the world, and the mid-life sadness happens regardless
of marital status (婚姻狀況), changes in jobs or pay. It happens to men and women, to single and married
people, to rich and poor, and to those with and without children.
     One possibility may be that people realize many of their dreams won't come true at middle age. The
researchers said another reason could be that seeing their middle- aged friends die one by one, people begin to
value their own remaining years and their Iove of the nature and long for peaceful and free life once more.
     But the good news is that if people make it to aged 70 and are still physically fit, they are on average (平均)
as happy as a 20-year-old person. For the average people in the modem world, the fall in mental health and
happiness doesn't come on suddenly in a single year. Only in their fifties do people get out of this low period.
1. Do people feel happy at the start and end of their lives?
    _____________________________________________________________________________________
2. Where are the scientists in the passage from? 
    _____________________________________________________________________________________
3. When does the unhappiness reach the highest point among men in America, at the age of 40 or about 50?
    _____________________________________________________________________________________
4. What is the good news for a 70-year-old healthy man? 
    _____________________________________________________________________________________
5. How will a teenager feel in his future life according to the passage?

                                                             How Long Can People Live?
       She took up skating at age 85, made her first movie appearance at age 114, and held a concert in the
neighborhood on her 121st birthday.
        When it comes to long life, Jeanne Calment is the world's recordholder. She lived to the ripe old age
of 122. So is 122 the upper limit to the human life span (壽命)? If scientists come up with some sort of pill
or diet that would slow aging, could we possibly make it to 150-or beyond?
        Researchers don't entirely agree on the answers. "Calment lived to 122, so it wouldn't surprise me if
someone alive today reaches 130 or 135," says Jerry Shay at the University of Texas.
        Steve Austad at the University of Texas agrees. "People can live much longer than we think," he says.
"Experts used to say that humans couldn't live past 110. When Calment blew past that age, they raised the
number to 120. So why can't we go higher?"
        The trouble with guessing how old people can live to be is that it's all just guessing. "Anyone can make
up a number," says Rich Miller at the University of Michigan. "Usually the scientist who picks the highest
number gets his name in Time magazine."
       Won't new anti - aging techniques keep us alive for centuries? Any cure, says Miller, for aging would
probably keep most of us kicking until about 120. Researchers are working on treatments that lengthen the
life span of mice by 50 percent at most. So, if the average human life span is about 80 year, says Miller,
"adding another 50 percent would get you to 120." 
       So what can we conclude from this little disagreement among the researchers? That life span is flexible
(有彈性的), but there is a limit, says George Martin of the University of Washington. "We can get flies to
live 50 percent longer," he says. "But a fly's never going to live 150 years." Of course, if you became a new
species (物種), one that ages at a lower speed, that would be a different story, he adds. 
       Does Martin really believe that humans could evolve (進(jìn)化) their way to longer life? "It's pretty cool to
think about," he says with a smile.

1. What does the story of Jeanne Calment prove (證明) to us?
[     ]
A. People can live to 122.
B. Old people are creative.
C. Women are sporty at 85.
D. Women live longer than men.
2. According to Steve Austad at the University of Texas, _______.
[     ]
A. the average human life span could be 110
B. scientists cannot find ways to slow aging
C. few people can expect to live to over 150
D. researchers are not sure how long people can live
3. What can we infer (推斷) from the last three paragraphs?
[     ]
A. Most of us could be good at sports even at 120.
B. The average human life span cannot be doubled.
C. Scientists believe mice are aging at a slower speed than before.
D. New techniques could be used to change flies into a new species.
