When did you last see a polar bear? On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These “Polar Bears” are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the air temperature was 3C, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group; this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February. Doctor's do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter. The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming. The main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says, "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away."
1. The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that ______.

3. According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that ______.
A．you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue
B．cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter

How old is the earth? The ancient Babylonians believed that the earth was 2 million years old. They were more correct than some people who lived much later.
In 1650, an Irish archbishop named James Ussher stated that the world was created at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 23, in 4004 B.C.. Ussher based this date on his studies of the Bible and other ancient writings. His statement was printed in a number of books and was accepted by many other scholars.
There were no geologists in Ussher’s time. It was only in the 1700s that people began to look carefully at the earth’s crust and understand what they saw. They began to realize that whole mountain ranges had been worn down by wind and water. Deep valleys had been carved by running streams.
By 1800, geologists were certain the earth’s surface had been greatly changed by slow forces. They estimated that the earth was probably more than 10 million years old. By 1900, geologists changed that figure to 100 million years. One person who helped change people’s ideas about the age of the earth was Charles Darwin. He proved that living creatures had changed, very slowly, over long periods of time.
In modern times, new evidence has shown that the earth’s age must be measured in billions, rather than millions of years. Astronomers, comparing the earth to the sun and some stars, estimated that the earth is 4 to 5 billion years old. Today, most scientists accept this estimate.
1. The age of the earth must be measured in ____.
A. hundreds of years B. thousands of years
C. billions of years D. months and years
2. The underlined word “estimated” in Paragraph Four means____.
A. judged B. calculated C. measured D. imagined
3. Charles Darwin changed people’s ideas ____.
A. about the dates on the rocks B. about how old they were
C. about the age of the earth D. about the Irish archbishop
4. While it is not directly stated, the article suggested that ____.
A．there have always been geologists
B．Charles Darwin changed animals
C．Scientists still learn about the earth
D．Estimating the age of the earth is not easy
5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．We do not have an exact date for the creation of the earth.
B．There were no geologists in Ussher’s time.
