Baseline Exam Is Key to Eye Health
Even people with no signs or risk factors for eye disease can suffer vision loss and need to get baseline（基线）eye exams at age 40,says the American Academy of Ophthalmology(AAO)（美国眼科学会）.
The reminder（提示）is part of the AAO's EyeSmart campaign to mark Save Your Vision Month in February.
“Many eye diseases progress without any warning signs,”Dr. Stephanie Marioneaux,a clin-ical correspondent for the AAO,said in a prepared statement.“Gradual changes in vision can af-fect your ability to function independently and have confidence in your abilities.”
Based on the findings from the initial screening,an eye doctor will create a schedule for follow-up eye exams.
People of any age who have symptoms of eye disease or are at high risk due to family history, diabetes（糖尿病）or high blood pressure should consult with their eye doctor to determine how often they should have their eyes checked,the AAO recommends .By 2020,43 million Americans will be at significant risk for vision loss or blindness due to age-related eye diseases such as cata-racts（白内障）and glaucoma（青光眼）. That's a more than 50 percent increase over the current number of Americans with such vision-threatening diseases.
But many Americans are unconcerned about the risk of vision loss.Only 23 percent of Amer- icans are very concerned about losing their vision,while most feel weight gain or joint or back pain are greater worries than vision loss,according to an AAO survey conducted for its EyeSmart campaign.Most Americans are concerned about the risk of vision loss more than weight gain or joint pain.
A:Right
B: Wrong
C: Not mentioned答案：B解析：题干句意：美国眼科学会认为人们在四十岁的时候需要做眼睛基线检查。根据文章首句“Even people with no signs or risk factors for eye disease can suffer vision loss and need to get baseline（基线）eye exams at age 40”可知即使没有患眼疾的征兆或风险，人们都有可能遭受失明，所以在四十岁的时候都需要做眼睛基线检查。
题干句意：Dr. Stephanie Marioneaux认为，眼疾的发展都有发病前兆。根据第三段他说的“Many eye diseases progress without any warning signs”可知，许多眼疾都没有发病前兆。故题干表述错误。
题干句意：视力的变化可以影响你的思想。根据第三段最后一句“Gradual changes in vision can affect your ability to function independently. ”可知视力的逐渐变化会影响你独立工作的能力，并没有将视力变化对思想的影响，故题干表述文中没有提及。
题干句意：根据视力初期筛选结果，眼科医生将建立一个视力定期复查时间表。in-itial screening意为“起始筛选，初期筛选”,follow-up意为“定期复查”。根据文章第四段可知题干表述正确。
题干句意：只有患糖尿病或者高血压的老人需要看眼科医生。根据第五段“People of any age… diabetes（糖尿病）or high blood pressure should consult with their eye doctor to determine how often they should have their eyes checked”可知任何年龄的人，只要有眼疾的症状或有家族遗传史，糖尿病或高血压的人都应该咨询眼科医生做眼部检查的频率。故题干表述错误。
题干句意：白内障和青光眼跟年龄有关。根据第六段“age-related eye diseases such as cataracts（白内障) and glaucoma（青光眼）”可知题干表述正确。
题干句意：大部分美国人更加关注失明的风险甚于关心增变胖或关节痛。根据最后一段“Only 23 percent of Americans are very concerned about losing their vision, while most feel weight gain or joint or back pain are greater worries than vision loss”可知，只有 23％的美国人关注失明的风险，大部分人认为变胖、关节痛或者背痛都比失明严重得多。故题干表述错误。 -

A Debate on the English Language
A measure declaring English the national language is under intense debate in the United States .The US Senate passed two declarations last week.One calls English the nation's official lan-guage and the other says it is the “common and unifying（统一的）”tongue. But Americans found themselves divided on the issue.
Since people worldwide know that most Americans speak only English,many can't understand
why the issue is so controversial（有争议的）.
“The discussion is related to fears of immigration issues,”says Dick Tucker,a social scientist at Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon University.“It's related to a worry about the changing demography （人口统计）of the US It's a worry about who will continue to have political and economic influence.”
In fact,the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation's founding. John Adams lobbied（游说）in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language.But his proposal died,since lawmakers saw it as a roy-alist（保皇主义者）attempt to define personal behavior.
Since then,the country hasn't had a national language,but the idea of recognizing the special status of English lived on.
The emotions surrounding language resurface（再次浮现）not because people feel comfortable with English .It is more about the discomfort many Americans feel with the new languages,says Walt Wolfram,a professor at North Carolina State University.
“Language is never about language,”he says.
According to the 2000 US Census Bureau report,of 209 million Americans over 18 years old, 172 million speak only English at home.About 37 million speak languages other than English. Among them,6 .5 million speak poor English and 3 .1 million don't speak English at all.What are the two declarations concerned with?
A:.The status of the English language.
B: The protection of new languages.
C: The rights to speak one's mother tongue.
D: The improvement of the English language.答案：A解析：本题问“两个宣言关切到什么？”文章的第一句话是这么说的：在美国，一个宣布英语是国语的措施正在经受着激烈的争论。然后文章说到美国参议院上周通过了两个宣言。一个宣言把英语叫做国家的官方语言；另一个宣言说英语是通用的、起统一作用的语言。可见这两个宣言涉及英语的地位问题，因此A项是正确的。
本题问“谁在18世纪就建议英语应该得到保护？”第四段有这样一句话：John Adams lobbied in 1780 for the creation of a national academy to correct and improve the English language. 1780年John Adams曾游说建立一个国家研究院，致力于纠正并修改英语。可见正确的选择应该是John Adams。
本题问“下面的哪一方面跟目前的争论无关？”第三段提到A、B和C，唯有D没有提到。D说的是“美国的军事力量”。
本题问“根据2000年美国人口普查局的报告，哪个命题是真的？”最后一段话的第一个句子是这么说的：根据2000年美国人口普查局的报告，18岁以上美国人有两亿九百万人。所以C项是对的。其他选项都把两亿九百万人当作了美国的总人口，因而是错误的。
本题问“kicked around最有可能被哪个词替换？”这个短语出现在下面这个句子中：In fact,the notion of protecting the language has been kicked around almost since the nation's founding．事实上，保护这一语言的思想几乎从这个国家建立时就开始讨论了。这个短语的意义可以从上下文中推出。 -

正确答案： C解析：

Bit was the possibility of losing her business that gave Helena more concern
CHelena was more concerned towards her business and the possibility of losing it
Dthe possibility of losing her business gave Helena more concern
EHelena was more concerned about the possibility of losing her business
正确答案： D解析：
句子以修饰性短语“worried”分词开始，分词的主语必须是主句的主语，但是该主句的主语是“Helena’s concern”，所以A项不合适。分词的逻辑主语只能是Helena，C.和E.符合，选项C不正确，“concerned towards”这个短语不符合语言习惯。故选E。 -
