25、art.We think of an eider sibling as someone who can protect us and offer help and advice.That would be hard to do if that sibling came from a completely different generation. Working life would also be affected，especially if the retirement age was lifted.More people would stay in work for longer.Tha
26、t would give us the benefits of age-skill，wisdom and good judgement. On the other hand，more people working for longer would create greater competition for jobs.It would make it more difficult for younger people to find a job.Top posts would be dominated by the same few individuals，making career prog
27、ress more difficult.And how easily would a 25-year-old employee be able to communicate with a 125-year-old boss? Young people would be a smaller part of a society in which people lived to 140.It may be that such a society would place less importance on guiding and educating young people，and more on
28、making life comfortable for the old. And society would feel very different if more of its members were older.There would be more wisdom，but less energy.Young people like to move about.Old people like to sit still.Young people tend to act without thinking.Old people tend to think without acting.Young
29、 people are curious and like to experience different things.Old people are less enthusiastic about change.In fact，they are less enthusiastic about everything.

40、breaking their diet2.They were anxious and depressed；some were suicidal.They hid food in their rooms.Researchers warn that it is possible that weight reduction doesnt result in normal weight，but in an abnormal state resembling that of starved non-obese people. Thin people，however，suffer from the opp
41、osite：They have to make a great effort to gain weight.Ethan Sims，of the University of Vermont，got prisoners to volunteer to gain weight.In four to six months，they ate as much as they could.They succeeded in increasing their weight by 20 to 25 percent.But months after the study ended，they were back t

47、rol his weight. D)Each person wants to eat to his hearts content.答案与题解： 1.D 问题问的是：什么决定了你的体重?A说的是：你的工作方式。B说的是：你的吃饭习惯。C说的是：你的生活风格。D说的是：你的基因。正确答案是D。第一段中有这么一句话：Your genes，not your life habits，determine your weight and your body constantly tries to maintain it.你的基因而不是你的生活习惯决定了你的体重，因此你的身体总是试图保持它。 2.D 问题问的是：Jules Hirsch在他的研究中做了什么?A说的是：他让八个胖子不吃晚饭。B说的是：他让八个胖子不吃早饭。C说的是：他让八个胖子早晚都跑步。D说的是：他给八个胖子一种每天提供6
