    Step Back in Time Do you know that we live a lot longer now than the people who were born before us?One hundred years ago the average woman lived to be 45 .But now,she can live until at least 80. One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after ourselves better. We know which foods are good for US and what we have to eat to make sure our bodies get all the healthy things they need.We know why we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better a-gain .And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily. But in order that we don't slip back into bad habits,let's have a look at what life was like 100 years ago. Families had between 15 and 20 children,although many babies didn't live long. Children suffered from lots of diseases, especially rickets (佝偻病)and scurvy(坏血病),which are both caused by bad diets.This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their chil-dren well. Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often slept standing up,bending over a piece of string,because there was no room for them to lie down. People didn't have fridges until the 1920s.They kept fresh food cold by storing it on window-sills(窗台板),blocks of ice , or even burying it in the garden. Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their parents. If you had lived 100 years ago, you might well be selling matchsticks(火柴杆)(a job done by many children) or working with your dad by now.

    An Englishman invented the fridge in the 1920s.
    A: Right
    B:Wrong
    C: Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    文章第一段虽然提到现在女性的寿命要比一百年前长得多,但并没有提及一百年前女性是否比男性寿命要长。

    文章第四段提到,询楼病与坏血病都是饮食不良引发的。

  • 第7题:

    The Hundred Years’ War and its consequences.


    正确答案:The Hundred Years’ War refers to the war between England and France that lasted intermittently from 1337 to 1453. The causes of the war were partly territorial and partly economic. The territorial causes were related with the possession by the English kings of the large duchy in France, while the French kings coveted this large slice. The economic causes were connected with cloth manufacturing towns in Flanders, which were the importer of English wool, but they were loyal to the French king politically. Besides, England’s desire to stop France from giving aid to Scots and a growing sense of nationalism were the other causes.
    The English’s being driven out of France is regarded as a blessing for both countries. If the English had remained in France, the superior size and wealth of France would have hindered the development of a separate English national identity, while France was hindered so long as a foreign power occupied so much French territory.

    B

    C

    spread to other countries

    D

    take long to reach other countries


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    推理题。第二段第一句指出“Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings ... took months and even years to travel from one country to another”,即“五百年前,一些重要的消息……需要几个月甚至几年才能从一个国家传到另一个国家”。注意问题中有个not,因此B“传播快”符合原文含义。A项“受到关注”;C项“传播到其他国家”;D项“需要很长时间才能传播到别的国家”。考虑到问题中的not,这三项均不正确。

    women cared nothing about how their family lives were

    D

    women were not allowed to decide how to spend their money or how to teach children
