But later phone numb
30、ers became popular, that changed.

31、Athens. The modern marathon was born as a flagship event in the first Olympic Games, in 1896, with a distance (距离) of about 25 miles (40 km), as long as the distance from Marathon to Athens.

37、to live in” says science writer Matt Ridley, “and it will keep on getting better.” Read on to see how Ridley makes his case. Right or wrong?

38、live one third longer. In fact, its hard to find any areas of the world thats worse off now than it was then, even though the world population has more than doubled over that period.One reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ever before is that the four most b
39、asic human needsfood, clothing, fuel and shelterhave grown much cheaper. Take one example: In 1800, a candle providing one hours light cost six hours work.

43、ls. Instead, it is reported there are 900 billion today. They will last for many years and people will find something in place of oil long before they run out.The more we develop, the more we can develop. The more we invent, the more inventions become possible. For 200 years, pessimists (people who
44、believe that terrible things will happen in future) have had all the headlineseven though optimists have far more often been right. There 英语试卷 第 9 页 （共 16 页）are some reasons for pessimists.
