A Most Important Period in Greek
One of the most important periods in Greek history was the Hellenistic Age which began after the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B. C., and lasted almost 200 years. It was during this time in history that Greek ideas and Greek culture spread into Egypt and throughout the Near East. A Greek state even existed (51) India. During the Hellenistic Age, there were great advances (52) in Greek scholarship in such areas as philosophy, science, religion, art and social justice. Important discoveries were made in the (53) .

The History of American Marriage The horse and carriage is a thing of the past, but love and marriage are still with us and still closely interrelated. Most American marriages, particularly first marriages 51 young couples, are the result of 52 attraction and affection rather than practical consid-erations. In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children.Teenagers begin 53 in high school and usually find mates through their own academic and social 54 .Though young people feel free to choose their friends from 55 groups, most choose a ma-te of similar background.This is 56 in part to parental guidance.Parents cannot select spouses for their children, but they can usually influence choices by 57 disapproval of someone they consider unsuitable. 58 , marriages between members of different groups (interclass, interfaith, and in-terracial marriages) are increasing, probably because of the greater 59 of today's youth and the fact that they are restricted by fewer prejudices than their parents.Many young people leave their home towns to attend college, 60 in the armed forces, or pursue a ca- reer in a bigger city.Once away from home and family, they are more 61 to date and marry outside their own social group. In mobile American society, interclass marriages are neither 62 nor shocking.Inter-faith marriages are 63 the rise particularly between Protestants and Catholics.On the other hand, interracial marriage is still very uncommon.It can be difficult for interracial couples to find a place to live, maintain friendships, and 64 a family.Marriages between people of different national 65 (but the same race and religion) have been commonplace here since colonial times.

raged, but not forced, to “leave the nest” and begin an independent life.After children leave home they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family.Parents do not arrange marriages for their children,nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married.Romantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses (配偶)through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions.Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.
In many families, parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves.A parent may try to influence a child to f ollow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another career.Sometimes children do precisely the opposite of what their parents wish in order to assert their independence.A son may deliberately decide not to go into his father’s business because of a fear that he will lose his autonomy in his father’s workplace.This independence from parents is not an indication that parents and children do not love each other.Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family.Coexisting with such love in the American family are cultural values of self-reliance and independence.

Slowing Aging: Way to Fight Diseases in 21st Century
A group of aging experts from the United States and the United Kingdom suggest that the best strategy for preventing and fighting a multitude of diseases is to focus on slowing the biological processes of aging.
"The traditional medical approach of attacking individual diseases - cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease (早老性痴呆病) and Parkinson's disease (帕金森氏病) -will soon become less effective if we do not determine how all of these diseases either interact or share common mechanisms with aging," says S. Jay Olshansky, professor of epidemiology at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health and senior author of the commentary.
Middle-aged and older people are most often impacted by simultaneous but independent medical conditions. A cure for any of the major fatal diseases would have only a marginal impact on life expectancy (预期寿命) and the length of healthy life, Olshansky said.
The authors suggest that a new paradigm (模式) of health promotion and disease prevention could produce unprecedented social, economic and health dividends for current and future generations if the aging population is provided with extended years of healthy life.
They note that all living things, including humans, possess biochemical mechanisms that influence how quickly we age and, through dietary (饮食的) intervention or genetic alteration, it is possible to extend lifespan to postpone aging-related processes and diseases.
Further research in laboratory models is expected to provide clues to and deeper understanding of how existing interventions, such as exercise and good nutrition, may lead to lifelong well-being.
The authors also propose greatly increased funding for basic research into the
"fundamental cellular (细胞的) and physiological changes that drive aging itself."
"We believe that the potential benefits of slowing aging processes have been
underrecognized by most of the scientific community," said Olshansky. "We call on the health-research decision-makers to allocate substantial resources to support and develop practical interventions that slow aging in people."
An increase in age-related diseases and escalating health care costs make this the time for a "systematic attack on aging itself," the authors write.
Olshansky and colleagues contend that modern medicine is already heavily invested in efforts to extend life, and they argue that a fresh emphasis on aging has the potential to improve health and quality of life far more efficiently than is currently possible.

A is the best strategy for fighting diseases.
B focuses on slowing aging processes.
C needs to be improved.
D has gone out of date.
