8 . 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 (衰退) 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 (供血动力) 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 (细胞) 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 (衰老过程).”

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 (性别) 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, concentrating on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease.

The team will have 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.

1. The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to _________.

A．health

D．long life

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

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

3. The text mainly talks about ________.

A．men’s heart cells	B．hearts and long life
C．the gender difference	D．women’s ageing process

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

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

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

9 . After receiving several complaints (投诉) from the customers, the owner of an Italian restaurant in Mooresville, North Carolina, has taken the decision to forbid(禁止) children under the age of five. Although facing criticism in social media, he says that business has grown greatly.

The owner describes his restaurant as a traditional and wonderful restaurant, but young children cry, scream or play on iPads at full volume (音量). It disturbs other customers and clearly doesn’t fit in too well in a wonderful meal. So the owner, Pasquale Caruso, set up a “no child under five” rule in January 2020.

“Some customers complain, get up and leave because children are bothering them, and the parents are doing nothing,” Caruso told the newspaper. “It starts to feel like it isn’t the Caruso’s anymore, that it’s a local pizzeria instead." Caruso added that he didn’t like taking this kind of decision, but in the end, he had to do what was best for his business. Since then, people have been voicing their opinions on the restaurant’ s unofficial Facebook page.

“You have forbidden small children. Then who are the next: blacks, Jews, native people? Shame on you!” one Facebook user called John commented. But for every critical comment, there are some that congratulate Caruso’s for taking such a brave decision. “Thank you for taking a stand,” some people wrote on its Facebook page.

“I’m the parent of 5. Don’t bring little ones to a nice restaurant or expect them to quietly sit still for an hour. They CAN NOT DO IT,” one person posted. Caruso said the online support for his controversial (有争议的) rule is reflected in the success of his business. The number of customers has risen from 50 a day to around 80.

A．he doesn’t accept complaints from customers

3. What’s the result of Caruso’ s rule?

A．Most of people go against his behavior.

B．His restaurant gets into trouble.

C．He has to stop his rule at once.

D．There are more customers than before.

4. What’s the best title for the passage?
