15、kely to be fit? A study found that gym members were 14 times more active than people who didnt belong to any health club.

22、ing if you go to the gym. C Reflecting(回忆)on the past about those decisions or actions that cant be reversed(推翻)and being occupied with thoughts of “what if?” is no way to live. But there are a few things in life Id probably do differently if I had the chance. I once majored in architecture -somethi

D Olaf Stapledon wrote a book called First and Last Men, in which he looked millions of years ahead. He told of different men and of strange civilizations, broken up by long “dark ages” in between.
30、In his view, what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men. In 2,000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men. However, most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted. Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years. But the next hundred? The next thousand? The next million?
