閱讀段落

　　Our ‘dead’ products are ‘static’, closed systems. It is always the basic material which constitutes the object and which, in the natural course of things, is worn down and becomes ‘older’. Ageing in this case must occur according to the laws of physical chemistry and of the thermodynamics. Although the same law holds for a living organism, the result of this law is not inexorable in the same way. At least as long as a biological system has the ability to renew itself it could actually become older without ageing: an organism is an open, dynamic system through which new material continuously flows. Destruction of old material and formation of new material are thus in permanent dynamic equilibrium. The material of which the organism is formed changes continuously. Thus our bodies continuously exchange old substance for new, just like a spring which more or less maintains its form and movement, but in which the water molecules are always different.

　　段落大意

　　本段對比了物品和生物體的區(qū)別：物品只是靜態(tài)的，關(guān)閉了的系統(tǒng);生物體是一個(gè)開放的，動態(tài)的系統(tǒng)，體內(nèi)的新物質(zhì)會不斷地代謝。

　　閱讀筆記
