　　Being sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life．Relationships with family, friends, neighbors, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity boost(促進(jìn))seems to come from marriage or a supportive relationship．The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widowers were at a much higher risk of dying than married men．Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man's life and two to a woman's．The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm．

　　Even if you are in a difficult situation, marriage can more than make it up to you．Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart．Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn't smoke．There's a flip side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their partner's death, and caring for a partner with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems．Even so, marriage still helps．In a 30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects．

　　So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socio-economic factors, health-service provision, emotional support and other more physiological mechanisms．For example, social contact can boost development of the brain and immune(免疫)system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life．People in supportive relationships may handle stress better．Then there are the psychological benefits of a supportive partner．

　　A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100．The complete social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says：“People are interconnected, so their health is interconnected．”

(1)

[　　]

A．

older men should quit smoking to stay healthy

marriage can help make up for ill health

Being sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbours, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity (長壽) boost seems to come from marriage or an equivalent relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows (寡婦)and widowers  were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man’s life and two to a woman’s. The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm.
　　Even if the odds are stacked against you, marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn’t smoke. There’s a flip side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their spouse’s death, and caring for a spouse with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems.

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆遼寧省沈陽市北校高一12月月考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Imagine going to sleep then waking up speaking another language. It may sound impossible， but it's actually happened.

The phenomenon(現(xiàn)象)of being able to suddenly speak another language is known as“Xenoglossia”， from the Greek words“xenos”(foreigner)and “glossa”(language)．

It once happened to a 13­year­old girl from Croatia. After being unconscious(不省人事的)because of a disease for 24 hours in 2010，she woke up speaking fluent German. The girl， who came from the town of Knin in the south of Croatia，was studying German at school but she'd only started recently. Her parents said that she'd been reading German books and watching German TV at home， but that she wasn't fluent in the language.However ，since waking up， she's been able to communicate “perfectly”in German.What's really strange is that she's now unable to speak Croat，her mother language.Doctors at Split's KB Hospital have asked some experts to examine the girl as they try to find out what caused the change.Dr Mijo Milas said，“In earlier times this would have been considered as a miracle(奇跡)；we prefer to think that there must be an explanation—it's just that we haven't found it yet.”

In 2007，Matej Kus from Czech became unconscious after a motorbike accident. On waking up 45 minutes later，he could speak fluent English.Matej was only 18 years old at the time， and had just started studying the language and so was at a low level.Peter Waite，Kus's teammate said，“I couldn't believe what I was hearing.It was really clear English.It was unbelievable to hear him talk in unbroken English.”Unluckily，Matej's new language skills didn't last.Two days later， when he recovered fully from the accident， he'd completely forgotten his English.

We still don't know exactly what happened to the two people. Perhaps scientists will discover something new and exciting. But until then， keep studying!

1.According to the passage，what is“Xenoglossia”？

A．That someone becomes unconscious.

B．That someone speaks a new language in a sudden.

C．That someone doesn't like his mother language.

D．That someone is able to speak Greek suddenly.

2.What does the underlined word “It” in Para.3 probably refer to?

A．Having accidents.

B．Speaking fluent German.

C．The phenomenon of Xenoglossia.

D．Being unable to speak.

3.We can learn from Paragraph 3 that the girl from Croatia ______.

A． wanted to know what caused her change

B． believed she had a talent for language

C． didn't study German for a long time

D． didn't like learning German

4.Which of the following is TURE according to the test?

A. Matej Kus is now afraid of motorbike racing.

B. The girl from Croatia lost consciousness for several days.

C. The girl from Croatia was knocked unconscious in an accident.

D. Matej Kus could only speak a little English before the accident .

閱讀理解。
     Being sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbours, even pets, will all help, but the biggest longevity (長壽) seems to come from marriage. The effect was first
noticed in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows (寡婦) and widowers (鰥夫) were at a much higher
risk of dying than the married people. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven
years to a man's life and two to a woman's. The effect can be seen in all causes of death, whether illness,
accident or self-harm. 　
     Even if the chances are all against you, marriage can more than compensate (補償) you. Linda Waite of the
University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years
longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Similarly, a married man who smokes more than a pack a
day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn't smoke. There's a flip side, however, as partners are
more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their husband or wife's death, and caring for
your husband or wife with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the
chances favour marriage. In a 30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard
Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects. 　
     So how does it work? The effects are complicated, affected by socio-economic factors, health-service
provision, emotional support and other more physiological mechanisms (生理機(jī)制). For example, social contact can promote development of the brain and immune (免疫) system, leading to better health and less chance of
depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the
psychological benefits of a supportive partner. 　
     A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100. The overall social
network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says:"People are inter-connected, so their health is
inter-connected."
1. William Farr's study and other studies show that _______.
