9、tion II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1Is there a way to turn back the aging process in people? For centuries, people have been looking for a “
10、fountain of youth.” The idea is that if you find a magical fountain, and drink its water, you will not age.Researchers in New York did not find an actual fountain of youth, but they may have found a way to turn back the aging process. It appears that the answer may be called the hypothalamus, which
11、is part of your brain. It controls important body activities, including growth, the way we process food and so on.Researchers at New Yorks Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that hypothalamus neural stem cells (干细胞) also influence how fast aging takes place.Dongsheng Cai, a professor at the A
12、lbert Einstein College of Medicine, was the leading researcher in a study on aging in mice. He and his team reported their findings.“Aging speed can be controlled by a particular place in the body, which is the hypothalamus. And it can be controlled by a particular type of cells, which are hypothala
13、mus stem cells.” He adds that when the hypothalamus starts aging, so does the body. So when hypothalamus function is in decline, particularly the loss of hypothalamus stem cells, and this protection against the aging development is lost, it eventually leads to aging.Using this information, the resea
14、rchers began trying to activate the hypothalamus in laboratory mice. They did this by injecting the animals with stem cells.The researchers say the results show that the treatment slowed aging in the animals. “When we injected the hypothalamus stem cells to the middle-aged mice, the mice aged slowly
15、 and they can also live longer.”But these results were just from studying mice in a laboratory. If the mice can live longer, does that mean people could have longer lives? The next step is to see if the anti-aging effects also work in human beings.“If we can translate what we have seen in animals to humans, I think humans can function better during later ages.” Cai and his team say their studies may have other benefits. They say the findings could
