If blo

8、od is red, why are veins（静脉） blue?Actually, veins are not blue at all. They are more of a clear, yellowish colour. Although blood looks red when its outside the body, when its sitting in a vein near the surface of the skin, its more of a dark reddish purple colour. At the right depth, these blood-fi

9、lled veins reflect less red light than the surrounding skin, making them look blue by comparison. Which works harder, your heart or your brain?That kind of depends on whether you are busy thinking or busy exercising. Your heart works up to three times harder during exercise, and shifts enough blood

10、over a lifetime to fill a supertanker. But, in the long run, your brain probably tips it, because even when youre sitting still your brain is using twice as much energy as your heart, and it takes four to five times as much blood to feed it. Why do teeth fall out, and why dont they grow back in grow

11、n-ups?Baby（or “milk） teeth do not last long; they fall out to make room for bigger, stronger adult teeth later OIL Adult teeth fall out when they become damaged, decayed and infected by bacteria. Once this second set of teeth has grown in, youre done. When they are gone, theyre gone. This is because

12、 nature figures youre set for life, and what controls regrowth of your teeth switches off. Do old people shrink as they age?Yes and no. Many people do get shorter as they age. But, when they do, it isnt because theyre shrinking all over. They simply lose height as their spine（脊柱） becomes shorter and

13、 more curved due to disuse and the effects j of gravity. Many（but not all） men and women do lose height as they get older. Men lose an average of 3-4cm in height as they age, while women may lose 5cm or more. If you live to be 200 years old, would you keep shrinking till you were, like 60 cm tall, l

14、ike a little boy again? No, because old people dont really shrink! It is not that they are growing backwards their legs, arms and backbones getting shorter. When they do get shorter, its because the spine has shortened a little. Or, more often become more bent and curved. Why does spinning make you

15、dizzy（眩晕的）?Because your brain gets confused between what youre seeing and what youre feeling. The brain senses that youre spinning using special gravity-and-motion-sensing organs in your inner ear, which work together with your eyes to keep your vision and balance stable. But when you suddenly stop

16、spinning the system goes out of control, and your brain thinks youre moving while youre not!Where do feelings and emotions come from?Mostly from an ancient part of the brain called the limbic system. All mammals have this brain areafrom mice to dogs, cats, and humans. So all mammals feel basic emoti

17、ons like fear, pain and pleasure. But since human feelings also involve other, newer bits of the brain, we feel more complex emotions than any other animal on the planet. If exercise wears you out, how can it be good for you?Because our bodies adapt to everything we do to them. And as far as your bo

18、dy is concerned, its “use it, or lose it! Its not that exercise makes you healthy; its more than a lack of exercise leaves your body weak and easily affected by disease. 46What is the colour of blood in a vein near the surface of the akin?ABlue. BLight yellow. CRed. DDark reddish purple.47Why do som

19、e old people look a little shrunken as they age?ABecause their spine is in active use. BBecause they are more easily affected by gravity.CBecause they keep growing backwards. DBecause their spine becomes more bent.48Which of the following statements about our brain is true?AIn the long run, our brai

20、n probably works harder than our heart.BWhen our brain senses the spinning, we will feel dizzy.CThe brains of the other mammals are as complex as those of humans.DOur feelings and emotions come from the most developed area in our brain.49What is the main purpose of the selection?ATo give advice on h

21、ow to stay healthy. BTo provide information about our body.CTo challenge new findings in medical research. DTo report the latest discoveries in medical science.浙江卷CThe baby monkey is much more developed at birth than the human baby. Almost from the moment it is born, the baby monkey can move around

22、and hold tightly to its mother. During the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large, warm, and soft object in its environment, particularly if that object also gives it milk. After a week or so, however, the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses it

23、s attentions on “mother”the real mother or the mother-substitute（母亲替代物）. During the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological（心理的） thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby. The Harlows, a couple who are both psychologists, discovered this fact by offeri

24、ng baby monkeys a choice of two types of mother-substitutesone covered with cloth and one made of bare wire. If the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature, the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother. However, if the wire model was heated, while the cloth model was cool, for

25、the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mother-substitutes as their favorites. Thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother. Why is cloth preferable to bare wire? Something that the Harlows called contact comfort seems to be

26、 the answer, and a most powerful influence it is. Baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers skins, putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can. Whenever the young animal is frightened, disturbed, or annoyed, it typically rushes to its mother and rubs

27、itself against her body. Wire doesnt “rub” as well as does soft cloth. Prolonged（长时间的）“contact comfort” with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk. According to the Harlows, the basic quality of a babys love for its moth

28、er is trust. If the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother, the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be. It screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball. If its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom, the baby rushes to it and holds onto

29、 it for dear life. After a few minutes of contact comfort f it obviously begins to feel more secure. It then climbs down from the mother-substitute and begins to explore the toys, but often rushes back for a deep embrace（拥抱）as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well. Bit

30、by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its “mother.”50Psychologically, what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?AWarmth.
