Passage 2Trees are useful to man in three very important ways: they provide him wood and other products。 they give him shade。 and they help to prevent dr

In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers. Two thousand years ago, a rich and powerful country cut down
23、its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became bare and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation. Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply
24、 of trees, it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this. They cult down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear. This does not only mean that there w
25、ill be fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there trees, their roots break the soil up, allowing the rain to sink in, and also bind the soil. This prevents the soil from being washed away. But where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface,
26、 and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow. When all the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert. Questions 16 -20.

31、her Passage 3Death Giggles Not many books about old age and the fear of death tend to boost my mood, but Gene Cohens the creative Age has me singing in the shower and chuckling even at Internet jokes. Being a white headed wrinkly, as Australians call us old folks, I now feel the laughs bubbling up t
32、he way they have for most of my 76 years. Why? Well Cohen brightened my life - by putting me back in touch with my fear of death. Millions of us are living 30 years longer than we did a hundred years ago, and the data suggest that just in my lifetime weve been given a 14-year bonus in productive act
33、ivity. Our species is experimenting with lifespan. Here we are playing in overtime, with more health and energy than any cohort our age ever had. But our bodies wear down and cramp up, aggravating reminders that the whistle will soon blow to end the game. We tense up with anxiety and nocturnal panic
34、, wake from nightmares at 2:29 am. , roused by fear-moved bowels, fall into depression, lose concentration and turn edgy each time memory hides a name or a fact just when we have to have it. So we have to turn tombstone terrors into creative energy, urges Cohen. We start to get liberated, if ever, o
35、nly by a dramatic, though often overlooked, change in the way we think about death. Shifting from the abstract to the concrete, death changes from something that happens to something that will happen. Only when we look death in the eye - whatever words work for you and come to terms with our mortali
36、ty do we discover a creative new freedom, Cohen reports. As the founding director of the National Institute of Mental Healths Institute for Ageing, hes looked into enough cases to dig out the subtle stuff buried under death denials. Thats why the book pays off solidly on the promise of its subtitle:
37、 Awakening Human Potential in the Second Half of Life. The data suggests that we elders have easier access to our unconscious, productive dreams, than most busy grown-ups. In Denial of Death, the classic by Ernst Becker, the author argued that most art, and indeed civilization itself, comes from our
38、 struggle to transcend our mortal limits. What I know is Id lost my old humor partner, death, but with Cohens help were hanging out together again and we know that a workable idea or a good joke is more important than extended tofu.
