I left my vilin n the train! I went t ask ne f the crew（船员）what t d, but he said he culdn’t stp the ferry fr me.
What shuld I d? What wuld my dad say? He’d be really angry! I was wrried, and didn’t sleep all night. The next mrning I gt ff the ferry t meet my dad. I didn’t want t lk at him. I tld him what happened. He laughed. I lked at him and culdn’t believe it. Why was he laughing?
In my vilin case, I always have a label with my address and a telephne number. My dad tld me, “A cleaner fund yur vilin by the label n the train in Lndn and tk it t the plice. They called me.

What will man be like in the future-in 5000 r even 50,000 years frm nw? We can nly make guesses, f curse, but we can be sure that he will be different frm what he is tday, fr man is slwly changing all the time.
Let us take an bvius example, Man, even five hundred years ag, was shrter than he is tday. Nw, n average, men are abut three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively shrt perid f time, s we may assume that man will cntinue t grw taller. Again, in the mdern wrld we use ur brains a great deal. Even s, we still make use f nly abut 20% f the brain’s capacity. As time ges n, hwever, we shall have t use ur brains mre and mre, and eventually we shall need larger nes! This is likely t bring abut a physical change t: the head, in particular the frehead, will grw larger.
Nwadays ur eyes are in cnstant use. In fact, we use them s much that very ften they becme weaker and we have t wear glasses. But ver a very lng perid f time it is likely that man’s eyes will grw strnger.
On the ther hand, we tend t make less use f ur arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely t grw weaker. At the same time, hwever, ur fingers will grw mre sensitive because they are used a great deal in mdern life.
But what abut hair? This will prbably disappear frm the bdy altgether in curse f time because it des nt serve a useful purpse any lnger. In the future, then, bth sexes are likely t be bald（光秃的）.
Perhaps all this gives the impressin that future man will nt be a very attractive creature t lk at! This may well be true. But in spite f all these changes, future man will still have a lt in cmmn with us. He will still be a human being, with thughts and emtins similar t ur wn.
28. The passage mainly tells us that
A. humans need’t wear glasses in the future.
B. man’s life will be different in the future.
C. future man will lk quite different frm us.
D. man is grwing taller and uglier as time passes
29. Which f the fllwing is clsest t the underlined wrd “assume” in Paragraph 2?
A. guessB. explainC. cmpeteD. knw
30. It can be inferred frm the passage that ______.
A. future life is always predictable（可预测的）
B. human beings will becme less attractive in the future
C. less use f a bdily rgan（器官）may lead t its degeneratin（退化）
D. human beings hpe fr a change in the future life
31. Future man will be similar t us in______.
A. Clur and heightB. size and appearance
C. thught and bservatinD. thught and emtin
D
D yu knw that a fast reader can get the ideas better than a slw reader can? Of curse, yu save time by reading fast, but this is nt the main reasn fr fast reading. The main reasn is that yu understand better what yu are reading when yu read fast.

The way in which yu read always depends n what yu are reading and fr what purpse. Yu shuld knw the different ways f reading s that yu can apply whatever methd that is necessary. Here are fur ways f reading:
(1)Skimming is an imprtant kind f reading. This methd can be used when yu wish t review smething that yu have frgtten. Yu can skim t get the main pints.
(2)Rapid first reading and then rereading certain parts carefully is imprtant. Yu may use this type f reading t study a science lessn r a histry lessn.
