【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.
One important biological factor(因素) that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and the blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.
They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.
Scientists are still not exactly sure how genes influence aging, but they believe they do. Some think that a woman's body cells have a tendency(傾向) to age more slowly than a man's. Others think that a man' s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.
A. However, women, on average, live longer.
B. The biological factor plays an important part.
C. Women are also helped by their female genes.
D. The female hormones also protect the body in another way.
E. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.
F. Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.
G. Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.

【答案】A；G；D；C；E
【解析】本文講述了女性比男性壽命長(zhǎng)的原因。
（1）A 根據(jù)空格下一句：一般說，她們比男性多活6到7年。故空格處講的是女性平均比男性壽命更長(zhǎng)。故選A。
（2）G 根據(jù)空格上句：一個(gè)重要的幫助女性活得更長(zhǎng)的生理因素是男性和女性之間荷爾蒙的不同。再根據(jù)空格下句：在大約12到50歲之間，女性生產(chǎn)參與生育的荷爾蒙。故此空與荷爾蒙有關(guān)，故G項(xiàng)“荷爾蒙是身體生產(chǎn)的控制各種身體功能的化學(xué)物質(zhì)�！狈仙舷挛恼Z境。
（3）D 根據(jù)下句：它們幫助身體本身抵抗各種感染。故D項(xiàng)“女性荷爾蒙也用另一種方式保護(hù)身體�！狈险Z境。
（4）C 根據(jù)下句：科學(xué)家仍然沒有確切地表明基因怎樣影響年齡，但是他們認(rèn)為基因卻是在影響年齡。故C項(xiàng)“女性基因也在幫助女性�！狈险Z境。
（5）E 根據(jù)空格前兩句：一些人認(rèn)為女性身體細(xì)胞有比男性老化慢的傾向，另一些人認(rèn)為男性身體細(xì)胞有老化快的傾向。故E項(xiàng)“最近研究似乎支持這兩種可能”總結(jié)前兩句。故選E。

A rainforest is an area(cover) by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate.the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere, (warm) the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years, humans (begin) destroying rainforests in search of three major resources: land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm (animal). This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide in the air comes from burning the rainforests.

【題目】C

On one of her trips to New York several years ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They settled in at a comfortable East Slide cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.

＂Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?＂ the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. ＂I’m from Mississippi too.＂

Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.

＂They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,＂ Welty said. ＂I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking.＂

Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi state reunion(團(tuán)聚).

＂My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’＂ Welty added. ＂And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’＂

Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.

＂I don’t make them up,＂ she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. ＂I don’t have to.＂

Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.

【1】What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?

A. Two strangers joined her.

B. Her childhood friends came in.

C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.

D. Some people held a party there.

【2】The underlined word ＂them＂ in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s _______.

A. readers B. parties C. friends D. stories

【3】What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?

A. They live in big cities. B. They are mostly women.

C. They come from real life. D. They are pleasure seekers.

Great Britain consists of four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. On the 13th century Wales was linked to England. In 1603, they were joined to Scotland. They were united in peace instead of by war. Furthermore, just as they were going to get Ireland connecting to form United Kingdom, the southern part of Ireland was broke away, so only Northern Ireland joined with England.
England is the larger of the four countries and for convenience it was divided into three zone: the South of England, the Midlands and the North. Most of the population are settled in the South, and most of the industrial cities is located in the Midlands and the North.
