What will man be like in____—in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now on? We can only make a____， of course, but we can be sure that he will be____what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.
Let us take an obvious____. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now on____， men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may imagine that man will continue to grow____.
Again, in the modern world we use our____a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity(容量). As time____on, however, we shall have to use our brains____—and eventually we shall need____ones! This is____to bring about a physical change too：the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.
Nowadays our eyes are in____use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow____.
On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs, These, as____， are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, ____， our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great____in modern life.
But what about hair? This will probably____from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes(性别)are likely to be bald(光秃的)!
Perhaps all this gives the____that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, ____all these changes, future man will still have a lot in____with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.
One Sunday afternoon, I was   37 with friends about animals. I said the whale（鲸鱼）was  __38 a mammal animal. They disagreed. Finally, I called a   39  over to help settle the matter. I knew I was 40 , so I was looking forward to the teacher 41   I was right. My friends were eager for an opposite answer. We asked her   42 the whale was a mammal. “No, the whale is a fish,” she said without a moment’s   43 .
You could have knocked me over with a feather. My   44   was hurt because I lost the argument, but that wasn’t the main reason I was too 45 to speak.

__50 that, I hadn’t known grown-ups could be wrong. This   51 shaped the way I viewed people as I grew up.   52   I found anyone treated another person with too much respect and admiration, I thought——and still think——“   53  silly.” From that point on, I had no 54__ for authority（权威）.

We’ve heard it before － we’ve heard it on the news, from teachers, from parents －children and teenagers today are growing up too fast. There are not too many people that will   _31 with that statement. Teenagers are faced with serious problems and decisions at an early   _32 . In fact most teenagers’ daily schedules（日程表）are as 33 as those of an adult’s.
I have been working since I was thirteen, and always in 34 in which I was working with adults. I have had to learn to think and 35 like an adult to be taken seriously. So, I count myself as one who has grown up too fast.

One of the things he said was “I 47 my basketball hoop（篮圈）. ”Then he threw a basketball to me.
I hadn’t 48 a basketball in five years.
We proceeded to shoot hoops for about 5 minutes. Both of us were terribly bad at it, but we spent the whole time 49 like children. Then I realized something: I am still a child. Oh, the law says I’m an adult. But, we are still really and truly children. We all need to have 50_   once in a while.
