Aging is the process of growing old. It occurs eventually in every living thing provided, of course, that an illness or accident does not kill it prematurely. The most familiar outward signs of aging may be seen in old people, such as the graying of the hair and the wrinkling of the skin. Signs of aging in a pet dog or cat include loss of playfulness and energy, a decline in hearing and eyesight, or even a slight graying of the coat. Plants age too, but the signs are much harder to detect. Most body parts grow bigger and stronger, and function more efficiently during childhood. They reach their peak at the time of maturity, or early adulthood. After that, they begin to decline. Bones, for example, gradually become lighter and more brittle. In the aged, the joints between the bones also become rigid and more inflexible. This can make moving very painful. All the major organs of the body show signs of aging. The brain, for example, works less efficiently, and even gets smaller in size. Thinking processes of all sorts are slowed down. Old people often have trouble in remembering recent events. One of the most serious changes of old age occurs in the arteries, the blood vessels that lead from the heart. They become thickened and constricted, allowing less blood to flow to the rest of body. This condition accounts, directly or indirectly, for many of the diseases of the aged. It may, for example, result in heart attack. Aging is not a uniform process. Different parts of the body wear out at different rates. There are great differences among people in their rate of aging. Even the cells of the body differ in the way they age. The majority of cells are capable of reproducing themselves many times during the course of a lifetime. Nerve cells and muscle fibers can never be replaced once they wear out. 1 | P a g e
2. Gerontologists - scientists who study the process of aging - believe this wearing out of the body is controlled by a built-in biological time-clock.

People generally have one of two responses to snakes: either they find them totally repulsive, or they are attracted to these smooth, silent, fast-moving creatures. Certain species of snake are poisonous and harmful to humans, but there are many which are non-venomous and can easily be kept at home. Snakes differ from other reptiles, such as lizards and alligators. Their well-developed system of muscles enables them to move with amazing speed and agility, even though they have 2 | P a g e
3. no legs. They have no ears and do not hear sounds, but they are able to sense ground vibrations. Snakes have limited vision, but they compensate for this with an excellent sense of smell. Their forked tongues pick up tiny molecules in the air and these are then deposited and identified in a special structure in the mouth, known as "Jacobson's organ." Strange as it may seem, some people keep snakes as pets. Raising a snake has a number of advantages. Snakes require no special attention, and they don't need to be walked. They are normally quiet and remain confined to their cages. Most adult snakes must be fed every 7-10 days. Snakes swallow their prey whole, thanks to a uniquely-formed joint in their jaw which enables them to open their mouths amazingly wide. They digest their food slowly and need to be in a state of rest during this period. Studying snakes, or better still, keeping one at home, is an ideal way to overcome the primitive fears that prevent many people from appreciating these fascinating animals. Question 12.
