1、Musical Training Can Improve Communication Skills American scientists say musical training seems to improve communication skills ａｎｄ　language retardation. They found that developing musical skills involves the same process in the brain as learning how to speak. The scientists believe that could help children with learning disabilities. ____. She says musical training involves putting together different kinds of information, such as hearing music, looking at musical notes, touching an instrument ａｎｄ　watching other musicians. This process is not much different from learning how to speak. Both involve different senses. She further explains musical training ａｎｄ　learning to speak each make us think about what we are doing. She says speech ａｎｄ　music pass through a structure of the nervous system called the brain stem. The brain stem controls our ability to hear. Until recently, experts have thought the brain stem could not be developed ｏｒchanged. But ProfessｏｒKranss ａｎｄ　her team found that musical training can improve a person\'s brain stem activity. The study involved individuals with different levels of musical ability. They were asked to wear an electrical device that measures brain activity. The individuals wore the electrode while they watched a video of someone speaking ａｎｄ　a person playing a musical instrument --－－the cello. ProfessｏｒKrauss says cellos have sound qualities similar to some of the sounds that are important with speech. The study found that the more years of training people had, the more sensitive they were to the sound ａｎｄ　rhythm of the music. Those who were involved in musical activities were the same people in whom the improvement of sensory events was the strongest. It shows the importance of musical training to children with learning disabilities. She says using music to improve listening skills could mean they hear sentences ａｎｄ　understａｎｄ　facial expressions better. 【单选题】

A.Both involve different senses.

B.Nina Kraus is a neurobiologist at Northwestern University in Illinois.

C.Some disabled children attended the musical training Class.

D.It shows the importance of musical training to children with learning disabilities.

E.ProfessｏｒKrauss says cellos have sound qualities similar to some of the sounds that are important with speech.

F.The brain stem controls our ability to hear.

正确答案:B

答案解析:46后面的句子的主语是代词she，说明46的句子中有一个女性的名字。选项B有Nina Kraus (Nina“尼娜”是女性名字)，句子的内容是介绍Nina Kraus，与后面句子的意思配得上。B是答案。

2、Human Heart Can Make New CellsSolving a longstanding (为时甚久的) mystery, scientists have found that the human heart continues to generate new cardiac(心脏的 ) cells throughout the life span, although the rate of new cell production slows with age.The finding, published in the April 3 issue of Science, could open a new path fｏｒthe treatment of heart diseases such as heart failure ａｎｄ　heart attack, experts say."We find that the beating cells in the heart, cardiomyocytes (心肌细胞), are renewed," said lead researcher Dr. Jonas Frisen, a professｏｒof stem cell research at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. "It has previously not been known whether we were limited to the cardiomyocytes we are born with ｏｒif they could be renewed," he said.The process of renewing these cells changes over time, Frisen added. In a 20 - year - old, about I percent of cardiomyocytes are exchanged each year, but the turnover (更替) rate decreases with age to only 0.45 percent by age 75."If we can understａｎｄ　how the generation of new cardiomyocytes is regulated, it may be potentially possible to develop pharmaceuticals (药物) that promote this process to stimulate regeneration after, fｏｒexample, a heart attack," Frisen said.That could lead to treatment that helps restore damaged hearts."A lot of people suffer from chronic heart failure," noted co - authｏｒDr. Ratan Bhardwaj, also from the Karolinska Institute. "Chronic heart failure arises from heart cells dying," he said.With this finding, scientists are "opening the doｏｒto potential therapies (疗法) to having ourselves heal ourselves." Bhardwaj said. "Maybe one could devise a pharmaceutical agent that would make heart cells make new ａｎｄ　more cells to overcome the problem they are facing. "But barriers remain. According to Bhardwaj, scientists do not yet know how to increase heart cell production to a rate that would replace cells faster than they are dying off, especially in older patients with heart failure. In addition, the number of new cells the heart produces was estimated using healthy hearts-whether the rate of cell turnover in diseased hearts is the same remains unknown.It is not known yet if the rate of cell turnover in diseased hearts ______.【单选题】

A.is high enough to replace cells faster than they\'re dying off

B.is of any use to researchers

C.is the same as that in healthy hearts

D.changes over time

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，答案依据比较明显。带着题干信息词回文章定位，答案依据是文章最后一段最后一句，谈到心脏新细胞的制造数量是按照健康心脏来计算的，但是患病心脏的细胞更新率是否一样还是未知，回来看选项，C项和原文句意相符，是答案。

3、The Need to RememberSome people say they have no memory at all: "I just can\'t remember a thing!" But of course we all have a memory. Our memory tells us who we are. Our memory helps U. S. to make use in the present of what we have learnt in the past.In fact we have different types of memory. Fｏｒexample, our visual memory helps us recall facts ａｎｄ　places. Some people have such a strong visual memory that they can remember exactly what they have seen, fｏｒexample, pages of a book, as a complete picture.Our verbal memory helps us remember words ａｎｄ　figures we may have heard but not seen ｏｒwritten: items of a shopping list, a chemical formula, dates, ｏｒa recipe.With our emotional memory, we recall situations ｏｒplaces where we had strong feelings, perhaps of happiness ｏｒunhappiness. We also have special memories fｏｒsmell, taste, touch ａｎｄ　sound, ａｎｄ　fｏｒperforming physical movements.We have two ways of storing any of these memories. Our short-term memory stores items fｏｒup to thirty seconds-enough to remember a telephone number while we dial. Our long-term memory, on the other hand, may store items fｏｒa lifetime. Older people in fact have a much biter long-term memory than short-term. They may forget what they have done only a few hours ago, but have the clearest remembrance of when they were very young.Psychologists tell us that we only remember a few facts about our past, ａｎｄ　that we invent the rest. It is as though we remember only the outline ofa story. We then make up the details. We often do this in the way we want to remember them, usually so that we appear as the heroes of our own past, ｏｒmaybe victims needing sympathy.Emotional memory is used when we perform physical movements.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:A

答案解析:

4、Why can\'t you stop your eternal complaining?【单选题】

A.long

B.everlasting

C.temporary

D.boring

正确答案:B

答案解析:你为什么不能停止无休无止的牢骚？本题难度不大，考察的是单词的基础含义，干扰项干扰不强，其他选项和答案意义差异较大，eternal指“永久的”，和everlasting“永久的，无休止的”是同义词，最佳答案是B。

5、Smallpox virusIt\'s now a fair bet that we will never see the total extinction of the smallpox virus. The idea was to cap the glorious achievement of 1980, when smallpox was eradicated in the wild, by destroying the killer virus in the last two labs that are supposed to have it—one in the US ａｎｄ　one in Russia. If smallpox had truly gone from the planet, what point was there in keeping these reserves?In reality, of course, it was naive to imagine that everyone would let go of such a potential weapon. Undoubtedly several nations still have a few vials. ａｎｄ　the last “official” stocks of live virus bred mistrust of the US ａｎｄ　Russia, fｏｒno obvious gain.Now American researchers have found an animal model of the human disease, opening the way fｏｒtests on new treatments ａｎｄ　vaccines. So one again there\'s a good reason to keep the virus—just in case the disease puts in a reappearance.How do we deal with the mistrust of the US ａｎｄ　Russia? Simple. Keep the virus under international auspices in a well-guarded UN laboratory that\'s open to all countries. The US will object, of course, just as it rejects a multilateral approach to just about everything. But it doesn\'t ____ the idea is wrong. If the virus is useful, then let\'s make it the servant of all humanity—not just a part of it.【单选题】

A.say

B.mean

C.state

D.declare

正确答案:B

答案解析:“It?doesn\'t?mean?that”是一种固定的表达法，也可以说“It?doesn\'t mean?to?say?that…”。

6、ExerciseWhether ｏｒnot exercise adds to the length of life, it is common experience that a certain amount of regular exercise improves the health ａｎｄ　contributes a feeling of well-being. Furthermore, exercise ____ involves play ａｎｄ　recreation, ａｎｄ　relieves nervous tension ａｎｄ　mental fatigue in so doing, is not only pleasant but beneficial.How much ａｎｄ　what kind of exercise one should take merits careful consideration. The growing child ａｎｄ　the normal young man ａｎｄ　young woman thrill with the exhilaration of strenuous sports. They fatigue to the point of exhaustion but recover promptly with a period of rest. But not so with those of middle age ａｎｄ　beyond. Fｏｒthem moderation is of vital importance. Just how much exercise a person of a given age can safely take is a question hard to answer. Individual variability is too great to permit of generalization. A game of tennis may be perfectly safe fｏｒone person of forty but folly fｏｒanother. The safe ｌｉｍｉｔfｏｒexercise depends on the condition of the heart, the condition of the muscles, the type of exercise, ａｎｄ　the regularity with which it is taken. Two general suggestions, however, will serve as sound advice fｏｒanyone. The first is that the condition of the heart ａｎｄ　general health should be determined periodically by careful, thorough physical examinations. The other is that exercise should be kept below the point of physical exhaustion.What type of exercise one should choose depends upon one\'s physical condition. Young people can safely enjoy vigorous competitive sports, but most older persons do bet ter to ｌｉｍｉｔthemselves to less strenuous activities. Walking, swimming, skating are among the sports that one can enjoy ａｎｄ　safely participate in throughout life. Regularity is important if one is to get the most enjoyment ａｎｄ　benefit out of exercise.【单选题】

A.which

B.where

C.when

D.why

正确答案:A

答案解析:从语法上分析，主句主语exercise的谓语应该是is?not?only?pleasant?but?beneficial，中间显然应该是一个定语从句，定语从句所缺少的是主语，故A为正确答案。

7、Life Expectancy in the Last Hundred YearsA hundred years ago, life expectancy in developed countries was about 47 in the early 21st century, men in the United States ａｎｄ　the United Kingdom can expect to live to about 74. Women to about 80, ａｎｄ　these ages are rising all the time. What has brought about these changes? When we look at the life ____ of people 100 years ago, we need to look at the greatest killers of the time. In the early 20th century, these were the acute ａｎｄ　oftenhighly infectious diseases such as smallpox. Many children died very young from these diseases ａｎｄ　others, ａｎｄ　the weak ａｎｄ　elderly were always at risk.In the developed world these diseases are far less deadly today, ａｎｄ　in some cases have almost disappeared. A number of factors have led to this: improvements in sanitation ａｎｄ　hygiene, the discovery ａｎｄ　use of antibiotics, which make bacterial diseases much less dangerous, ａｎｄ　vaccinations against common diseases. In addition , people\'s general health has improved with improvements in our general environment: cleaner air, better means of preserving food, better ａｎｄ　warmer housing, ａｎｄ　better understanding of nutrition.Genetically, we should all be able to live to about 85 but while people do live longer today, there are still some big killers around that are preventing US from consistently reaching that age. The problems that affect people today are the more chronic illnesses, such as heart disease ａｎｄ　strokes, ａｎｄ　those spread by viruses, such as influenza ａｎｄ　AIDS. Of course, cancer is a huge killer as well. In most cases these diseases affect older people, but there are worrying trends in the developed world with problems such as obesity leading to more heart disease ａｎｄ　illnesses such as diabetes at younger ages.The killers today can be classed as "lifestyle diseases", which means that it may be possible to halt their progress.【单选题】

A.length

B.time

C.duration

D.span

正确答案:D

答案解析:life span是一个固定搭配，意为“寿命”。

A.when a person becomes old

B.as soon as a person gets sick

C.immediately after a person is born

D.once a person dies

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题有一定难度，需要吃透原文句意，答案依据是文章第一段，谈到科学家发现人一生中心脏都会不停地制造新的心肌细胞，尽管新细胞产生的速度随年龄增长而放慢，换句话说，只有人死了，心脏才会停止制造心肌细胞，回来看选项，D项和原文句意相符，是答案。

9、15 Million Americans Suffer from Social Anxiety DisorderSocial anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒprevents some 15 million Americans from leading normal social ａｎｄ　romantic lives, a new survey finds.The disｏｒｃｅｒleaves many isolated, ashamed ａｎｄ　often misdiagnosed. Thirty-six percent of those with social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒhave symptoms fｏｒ10 years ｏｒmore before seeking help, the Anxiety Disorders Association of America reports."Social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒis when somebody has an intense, persistent ａｎｄ　irrational fear of social ｏｒperformance situations," Jerilyn Ross, the association\'s president ａｎｄ　CEO, said during a teleconference Wednesday."The condition causes people to avoid common, everyday situations ａｎｄ　even other people fｏｒfear of being judged ｏｒcriticized ｏｒhumiliated ｏｒembarrassing themselves," Ross said.Social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒcan interfere with daily routines ａｎｄ　job performance, Ross noted. "It also makes it very difficult fｏｒpeople to develop friends ａｎｄ　romantic partnerships," she said.People with this disｏｒｃｅｒrecognize their fear is excessive ａｎｄ　irrational, Ross noted. "But they feel powerless to do anything about it," she said.Social anxiety disｏｒｃｅｒcan start in the early teens, Dr. Mark H. Pollack, directｏｒof the Center fｏｒAnxiety ａｎｄ　Traumatic Stress Disorders ａｎｄ　a professｏｒof psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, said during the teleconference."This is a disｏｒｃｅｒthat starts affecting people early on," Pollack said. "The typical age of onｓｅｔis early adolescence, age 12 ｏｒ13, ａｎｄ　many individuals report a history of anxiety dating back to earlier childhood."The disｏｒｃｅｒalso has physical symptoms, including heart palpitations, feelings that their throat will close up, sweating, blushing, faintness, trembling ａｎｄ　stammering, Ross said.Among people with the disorder, 75 percent said the condition affected their ability to do normal activities. In addition, 69 percent said they didn\'t want people to think they were crazy, ａｎｄ　58 percent said they were embarrassed by their condition, Ross said.However, when the condition is diagnosed ａｎｄ　treated, many reported improvement in their lives. In fact, 59 percent who were receiving treatment said treatment had a positive effect on their ability to have a romantic relationship. In addition, 39 percent who had received treatment said knowing that treatment can be successful aided their decision to get help, Ross noted.It can be seen from the last paragraph that treatment of the disｏｒｃｅｒ____.【单选题】

A.has no positive effect at all

B.is unavailable to most sufferers

C.tends to be refused by the sufferers

D.can lead to improvement in the sufferers\' lives

正确答案:D

10、TV Games Shows One of the most fascinating things about television is the size of the audience. A novel can be on the "best sellers" list with a sale of fewer than 100,000 copies, but a popular TV show might have 70 million TV viewers. TV can make anything ｏｒanyone well known overnight. This is the principle behind "quiz" ｏｒ"game" shows, which put ordinary people on TV to play a game fｏｒthe prize ａｎｄ　money. A quiz show can make anyone a star, ａｎｄ　it can give away thousands of dollars just fｏｒfun. But all of this money can create problems. Fｏｒinstance, in the 1950s, quiz shows were very popular in the U. S. ａｎｄ　almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren, an English instructor, became rich ａｎｄ　famous after winning money on several shows. He even had a career as a television personality. But one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was cheating. It turned out that the show\'s producers, who were pulling the strings, gave the answers to the most popular contestants beforehand. Why? Because if the audience didn\'t like the person who won the game, they turned the show off. Based on his story, a movie under the title " Quiz Show" is on 40 years later. Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV. But game shows are still here, though they aren\'t taken as seriously. In fact, some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible. There are shows that send strangers on vacation trips together, ｏｒthat try to cause newly-married couples to fight on TV, ｏｒthat punish losers by humiliating them. The entertainment now is to see what people will do just to be on TV. People still win money, but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of millions. TV can make a beggar world-famous overnight. 【单选题】

A. Right

B. Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:A

答案解析:答案查找的线索词：world-famous overnight（一夜成名）或beggar（乞丐）。从第一段开始查找，不难在第一段的最后一句中找到含有world-famous overnight的相关句，于是对照原句和问题句，原句说电视可让anything（一切）和anyone（一切人）一夜成名，所以当然包括beggar，这句话正确。
