11、from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches talle

12、r. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains

13、more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But o

14、ver very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern li

16、 look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with use. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.21. The passage mainly tells us that_.A. mans life will be different in the futureB. future

17、 man will look quite different from usC. man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD. mans organs functions will be on the change22. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A.

18、gs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.23. The change in mans size of forehead is probably because_A. he makes use only 20 % of the brains capacity.B. his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.C. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due t

19、ime.D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.24. What is true about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesnt have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feel

20、s in different way.25.
