      As a boy,Tim was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic of a local doctor where he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles,but was actually trying to listen to the conversations taking place between the doctor and his patients in the next room.

      During the war Tim served in the Navy as a surgeon(外科醫(yī)生).“That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with very real suffering and on the whole making a success of it .”In California he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skills to himself and his ability to take decisions. Thus,while he was able to tell them what to do, he could feel he was serving them. After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside,working under an old doctor who was popular in the area,but who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the younger man many opportunities to go on working as a life –saver.

【2011·河北省南宮中學(xué)月考】E

Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.

The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts hardly lose their pumping power with age.

“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20---25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK. “Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”

What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.

“This gender (性別)difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink.

They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease.

The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart, said Goldspink.

The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.

57.The underlined word “l(fā)ongevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to _________.

 A.health               B.long life             C.a(chǎn)geing             D.effect

58.The text mainly talks about ________.

A.men’s heart cells                 B.women’s ageing process 

C.the gender difference             D.hearts and long life

59.According to the text, the UK scientists have known that _________.

A.women have more cells than men when they are born

       B.women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat

       C.the female heart loses few of the cells with age

       D.women never lose their pumping power with age

60.We can know from the passage that _______.

       A.the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out

       B.scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells

       C.the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss

       D.women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20
