2、understand her life. 答案:B解析:问题问的是：下面的哪个有关Yamamoto Mika的命题是不对的? 第一段的最后一句话是这么说的：我酷爱中国文化，并且作为交换生在天津学习过。所以认为Yamamoto Mika从来没有去过中国是不对的。2、Many Japanese students finish the compulsory courses in three years becausethey want to get married.they want to stay at home.they want to study abroad.they want to mak

3、e money.C 问题问的是：为什么许多日本学生在三年里把所有的必修课都读完? 第四段是这么说的：许多日本学生在三年里把所有的必修课都读完是为了空出一年来，他们常常用这一段时间去国外学习、做研究和旅行。3、Which of the following is NOT a feature of the University Festival?Inviting government officials to dinner.Organizing various activities.Interviewing celebrities.Promoting clubsA下面的哪一种活动不是大学节的特色?

4、A说的是：要求政府官员吃饭。文章没有提到过在大学节有请政府官员吃饭这种事。4、When you attend a Mochiyori party, you needinterview celebrities.buy drinks and snacks.get permission from the organizer.take to it a course you have cooked.D当参加一种叫做Mochiyori的聚会时你需要做什么?倒数第二段的第三句话是这么说的：如果你想参加这种聚会的话，你要带一个你自己做的菜。5、The word compulsory could be best

5、 replaced byforced.required.requested.demanded.“compulsory course”也可以说“required course”。6、 Hypertension（n. 高血压） Drugs （are） Found（被发现） to Cut Risk of Stroke（中风） Australian doctors declared Monday that a cocktail of simple antihypertensive drugs can lower the risk of patients suffering a repeat strok

6、e by more than a third. This is the result of their research. The research, presented at a medical conference in Italy over the weekend, has been valued highly as a major breakthrough in stroke prevention. Strokes kill 5 million people a year, and more than 15 million suffer non-fatal strokes that o

7、ften leave them with useless limbs, slurred speech and other serous disabilities. One in five stroke survivors goes on to have a second, often fatal, stroke within five years of the first. An international six-year study of 6,100 patients directed from Sydney University found that by taking two bloo

8、d pressure-lowering drugs, the risk of secondary strokes can be reduced by up to 40 per cent. Even taking one of the commonly available drugs can cut the risk by a third, the study said. The drugs are the diuretic indapamide and the ACE inhibitor perindopril, better known by its brand name Coversy.

9、The combination was effective even in patients who did not have high blood pressure, the researchers said. They even found that the risk of another stroke could be cut by three quarters among the one-in-10 patients who had suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, the worst type of stoke, where there is direc

10、t bleeding into the brain. Stephen McMahon, who presented the research at the Milan congress of the European Society of hypertension, said about 50 million people were alive who had suffered at least one stroke. “If most of those patients were able to get access to this treatment, it would result in

11、 maybe the avoidance of half a million strokes a year,” the professor told Australias ABC Radio. McMahon said doctors had long known that lowering the blood pressure of those with hypertension could help prevent strokes. “What we have shown for the first time is that it does not really matter what y

12、our blood pressure is; if you have had a stroke, the lowering blood pressure will produce large benefits, to begin witheven for people whose blood pressure is average or below average,” he said. McMahon said the Milan gathering had heralded the research as a “major breakthrough in the care of patien

13、ts with strokesperhaps the biggest step forward that we have made in the last couple of decades. ” How many people surviving the first stroke may suffer another attack during the following five years? More than 33% of them. Up to 40% of them 20% of them. 10% of them. 第二段第二句说中风后存活的病人， 五人中有一人在第一次中风后五年

14、内会再次中风， 而且常常是致命的， 所以C是正确答案。7、Taking two blood pressure-lowering drugs may produce _less risk of secondary strokes than taking only one such drug. three quarters nearly four tenths one fifth about one fourteenth第三段说，服用两种降压药继发中风的危险性可减少到40%； 单服一种药，其危险性则为1/3。可见服用两种药比服用一种药可减少大约7%， 即大约1/4的危险性。8、.Which of

15、the following is NOT a symptom left by strokes?Habitual sleeplessness. Losing the function of one more extremities. Speaking unclearly. Serious disabilities such as facial paralysis. 第二段第一句说非致命的中风常造成病人四肢残废， 有语言障碍以及其他严重残疾。 B， C， D就是这个意思， 而A“习惯性失眠”则不属于中风的后遗症。9、How many strokes may be reduced in a year

16、 if most of stroke patients can be treated in the way as the article recommends?5,000,000 500,000 50,000,000 15,000,000 第四段第二句说如果大多数病人有机会进行这样的治疗的话， 每年就可以避免50万次中风的发生，所以B正确。10、What patients among those who have had a stroke will benefit greatly from taking blood pressure-lowering drugs?Those whose blo

17、od pressure is high.Those whose blood pressure is average. Those whose blood pressure is below average. All of the above. 最后一段说， 血压高低并不重要， 只要你得过中风， 降低血压就会有很大的益处， 即使血压正常或低于正常也是如此， 所以D是正确答案。11、A Gay（n. 同性恋） Biologist（n. 生物学家）Molecular biologist Dean Hammer has blue eyes, light brown hair and a good se

18、nse of humor. He smokes cigarettes, spends long hours in an old laboratory at the US National Institute of Health, and in his free time climbs up cliffs and points his skis down steep slopes. He also happens to be openly, matter-of-factly gay.What is it that makes Hammer who he is? What, for that ma

19、tter, accounts for the talents and traits that make up anyones personality? Hammer is not content merely to ask such questions; he is trying to answer them as well. A pioneer in the field of molecular psychology, Hammer is exploring the role genes play in governing the very core of our individuality

20、. To a remarkable extent, his work on what might be called the gay, thrill-seeking and quit-smoking genes reflects how own genetic predispositions.That work, which has appeared mostly in scientific journals, has been gathered into an accessible and quite readable form in Hammers creative new book, L

21、iving with Our Genes. “you have about as much choice in some aspect of your personality.” Hamer and co-author Peter Copeland write in the introductory chapter, “as you do in the shape of your nose or the size of your feet.”Until recently, research into behavioral genetics was dominated by psychiatri

22、sts and psychologists, who based their most compelling conclusions about the importance of genes on studies of identical twins. For example, psychologist Michael Bailey of Northwestern University famously demonstrated that if one identical twin is gay, there is about a 50% likelihood that the other

23、will be too. Seven years ago, Hamer picked up where the twin studies left off, homing in on specific strips of DNA that appear to influence everything from mood to sexual orientation.Hamer switched to behavioral genetics from basic research, after receiving his doctorate from Harvard, he spent more than a decade studying the biochemistry of a protein that cells use to metabolize heavy metals like copper and zinc. As he was about to turn 40, however, Hamer suddenly realized he had learned as much about the protein as he cared to. “Frankly, I was bored, ”he remembers, “and read
