Forget drinking countless glasses of water or getting your beauty sleep．The secret of looking young is simply to stay out of the sun．

A study of hundreds of women has revealed that those who avoided the sun’s rays looked up to 20 years younger than they actually are. However, other supposed rules for a youthful complexion, from drinking lots of water to sleeping well and exercising regularly, failed to hold back the hands of time.

Only keeping out of the sun, and wearing sunscreen when this wasn’t possible, made a difference, the American Academy of Dermatology’s annual conference will hear today.

The finding comes from a study of 231 women of all ages who were quizzed about their lives, including whether they were sun-loves. When researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital in the US guessed how old the women were, they found those who took care in the sun tended to have aged more slowly.

Four lucky women had so few wrinkles and age spots and such a glowing complexion，that they appeared to be twenty years younger than they really were．

Researcher Dr．Alexa Kimball said the popular belief that we drink lots of water to stay healthy is false and the body is “pretty good” at judging how much we need．Previous research by the British Nutrition Foundation reached a similar conclusion．

It isn’t clear why the women who slept well didn’t have younger-looking skin．But it may be that the question they were asked was too narrow and didn’t consider their long-term sleep patterns．

1.Which way can help women stay younger according to the study?

A. Having a good sleep． B. Drinking plenty of water．

C. Taking exercise regularly． D. Keeping out of the sun．

2.How did the researchers know the finding about women of all ages?

A. Through calls． B. Through games．

C. By quizzes． D. By interviewing face to face．

3.What’s the main purpose of the passage?

A. To introduce a good way to make women look younger．

B. To explain how scientists carried out the research．

C. To prove people’s previous ideas are true．

D. To persuade women to change their long-term sleep patterns．

4.This passage is most probably taken from______________．

A. a school textbook． B. a science fiction．

C. a reference book． D. a science paper．

You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging(抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!

You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes’ color or pattern.

You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.

It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.

So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed.” says scientist Andrew Zolli. “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example － what will be the next?

Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.

Two U．S.­based groups，the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society，commissioned an online survey earlier this year.They wanted to know what young people educated in American colleges know about geography，U.S.foreign policy，recent international events，and economics.

The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26，all of them presently attending，or having previously graduated from，a 2­ or 4­year college or university.

The average test score，out of 75 total possible answers，was 55 percent.The study identifies a few important problems.For example，only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U．S.government that can declare war is Congress.Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.

Part of the problem，argue the organizers of the survey，is the Internet.They say it is becoming harder to find high­quality information about world events among all the fake news and trivia(琐事)which swamp(淹没)the Web.Forty­three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.

Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues.If such information is not required，Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said，then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson.He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.

The survey results were not all bad.The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy.And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.

Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students，both in school and online.To help，the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus，designed to help build knowledge about global issues.

1.What can we learn about the survey?

A.All the participants were recent university graduates.

B.It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26.

C.Its aim is to figure out what the young people know about America.

D.It was an online survey conducted by two US universities.

2.According to the survey，what topic did the young Americans understand best?

A.Environmental matters.

B.Geographic information.

C.Foreign relations.

D.Government organizations.

3.In which column of a newspaper could we find this article?

A.Economics.

B.Entertainment.

C.Education.

D.Politics.
