When they are babies, they are interested in the parts of their bodies and in the smiles of their mothers. Then they become interested in the physical world around them: the plants, the animals, the sky. Later, they become interested in the things that people have made: wheels, bicycles, cars. And when they are adults, their curiosity continues. Sometimes this curiosity leads to a career (生涯、职业) in science. Scientists spend their lives trying to find out about the world. Those who work with the earth sciences study the earth, the oceans, and the skies. Other scientists who study living things work with the biological sciences. A third group of scientists study the physical sciences, e. g. physics, chemistry. These scientists have already discovered a lot about our world. For example, they tell us why your heart beats fast when you run. They say that when you are quiet, your heart normally beats sixty-five or seventy-five times a minute. Your heart is a pump (泵) that pumps blood to all parts of the body. The blood carries oxygen and nutrition. When you run, your muscles work very hard and use the nutrition that the blood carries to them. The muscles need oxygen, too . So your brain sends a signal to the heart. The signal means that the muscles need more nutrition and oxygen. Then the heart beats fast and sends blood quickly to the muscles. It may beat 90 to 140 times a minute. Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask, “Why does the ocean water taste salty scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get saltier every year.” Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question. We know a lot about our world, but there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious. 36. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A. People are curious in the same way. B. People in different countries are interested in different things. C. Men and women are curious about different things. D. People of different ages are interested in different things 37. Scientists who work with the biological sciences study____. A. the earth, the oceans and the sky B. man-made things C. plants and animals D. ocean water 38. When you run, your muscles need ____. A. more nutrition and oxygen B. more signals C. more salt D. water 39. A rock cracks _____. A. in wet regions B. in dry regions C. at very high or very low temperatures D. when salty water falls in 40. People are always curious because ____. A. they cannot explain many things B. they know nothing about the world C. they know little about the world D. they want to be scientists B When did you last see a polar bear(北极熊)?On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club.These“Polar Bears”are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water.That day, the air temperature was 3 degrees.And the water temperature was a little higher.The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60.Members must satisfy two requirements.First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group; this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club.Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February. Doctors don’t agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming.Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body’s temperature drops so slow that finally the heart stops.Other doctors, however.point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and the water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter. The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming.They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统)because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm.Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water.A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and could not try cold-water swimming. The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental.The Polar Bears love to swim all the year round; they find it fun and relaxing.As one 70-year-old woman says,“When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away.” 41.The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that _______. A.they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months B.they must reach the age of 60 C.they should be easy to get along with D.they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February 42.Doctors _______.

A.Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water B.cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high C.you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue D.cold-water swimming causes more heart attack in summer than in winter 44.This passage is mainly about _______.
