He has done so for 40 years.”可知，蒂米的爷爷已经坚持收集硬币40年了。故填40 years./Forty years. 【52题详解】 根据“Most of his coins are old and valuable.”可知，他的大多数硬币年代久远且价值不菲。故填Old and valuable./Most of his coins are old and valuable. 【53题详解】 根据“When he went to get his coins, he could not find any of them.

Scientists studied the information of 6, 550 people over 40 years old for 18 years. Those people had no history of heart disease. 59% of them ate breakfast every day. 25% missed breakfast a few days. 10.9% hardly ate breakfast and 5.1% never did. The scientists found a clear relation between breakfast habits and the danger of getting heart disease. Those who didn’t eat in the morning were up to 87% more likely to have heart disease. Breakfast is an essential meal of the day, but a lot of people didn’t have it over the past 50 years in the US. 23.8% of young people don’t have breakfast every day.
