11、ly 16 scored as high quality”可知,169家保健网站,只有16家安全可靠,即占约1/10。故答案为C项。62D文章首先谈到越来越多的美国人生病不再去看医生,而通过上网买药治病,自己当医生;下文又讲到网上的信息并不安全可靠,许多网站存在不完整、不准确,甚至是危险的信息。故作者认为自己诊治自己的做法是危险的。63D由最后一段内容尤其是第一句可知Dr.Sarah Bass认为多数人并不知道如何在网上得到安全可靠的信息。第三部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。A
12、(2012河北普通高中教学质检)In an ideal world,people would not test medicines on animals.Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals,and expensive and timeconsuming for people.Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge.That is why there are some
13、 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.Europe,on the whole,has the worlds most restrictive laws on animal experiments.Even so,its scientists use some 12 million animals a year,most of them mice and rats,for medical research.Official statistics show that just 1.1 milli
14、on animals are used in research in America each year.But that is misleading.The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and,as these are the most common laboratory animals,the true figure is much higher.Japan and China have even less comprehensive data than America.Now Eur
15、ope is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs.Alternatives to animal testing,such as using human tissue or computer models,are now strongly recommended.In addition,sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of anim
16、als for scientific use.At present,scientists often share only the results of successful experiments.If their findings do not fit the hypothesis being tested,the work never sees the light of day.This practice means wasting time,money,and animals lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.Ani
17、mal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives.It needs to continue,even if that means animals sometimes suffer.Europes new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.5
18、6What is the main idea of this passage?AThe success of animal experiments should be ensured.BA ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.CGreater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.DScientists should be required to share their research results with each other.
19、57Which of the following statements is TRUE about animals used in the lab?AAmerica uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.BEurope does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.CBritain does not use as many lab animals as China does.DJapan has limited data on the number of lab animals us
20、ed each year.58Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments?AStatistical studies. BComputer models.CDNA planted in animals. DTissue from dead animals.59What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments?AThey are not revealed to the public.BThey are made i
21、nto teaching materials.CThey are collected for future publication.DThey are not removed from the research topic list.56C文章第一段指出用动物进行试验难以杜绝的原因,第二段提到欧洲对动物试验的法律限制的效果并不理想,第三段讲了欧洲为限制动物试验所作的努力,最后一段提到欧洲的新措施应该既要减少用于试验的动物的数量,又要改善科学研究的方法,所以C项最能概括文章大意。57D第二段的最后一句提到日本和中国与美国的数据相比甚至更不全面,由此可推知日本对每年用于实验室动物的数据记录有限。5
22、8B根据第三段第二句中的内容可知可用“人体组织”和“电脑模型”来取代动物试验。59A根据第三段中的倒数第二、三句可知,科学家们只分享成功的试验,如果结果与假设不符,所做的工作将永不公开。由此可推断不成功的试验不会展示给公众。Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, theres a whole lot more to
23、 it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the jobs pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of thos
24、e main areas; 1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people? There are isolating(使孤立)jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are a
25、lso positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.2) How do you handle change?Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you m
26、ay need a job where the changes dont happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.3) Do you enjoy working with computers? I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are
27、others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and youll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.4) What type of work environment do you enjoy? This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you wont know immediatel
28、y to a smaller setting where youll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.5) How do you like to get paid? Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.
29、 Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. Ive seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.
30、6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Isolating jobs usually drive people mad. B. Interactive jobs make people shy easily. C. Extreme people tend to work with others. D. Almost everyone has a tendency in jobs.7. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean? A. Bef
31、ore you select your job, you should assess your skills and match them with your position B. There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job. C. Nothing is important than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job.
32、D You should ignore your skills when you select job.8. What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?A. Design. B. Changes. C. Cooperation. D. Hobbies.9.What is the best title for this passage?A. Lifestyles and Job Pay B. Jobs and Environment C. Job Skills and Abilities D.
