第一篇
Prolonging human life has increased the size of the human population.Many people alive today would have died of childhood diseases if they had been born 100 years ago.Because more people live longer,there are more people around at any given time.In fact,it is a decrease in death rates, not an increase in birth rates,that has led to the population explosion.
Prolonging human life has also increased the dependency load.In all societies,people who are disabled or too young or too old to work are dependent on the rest of society to provide for them.In hunting and gathering cultures,old people who could not keep up might be left behind to die.In times of famine,infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved,whereas if the parents survived they could have another child.In most contemporary societies,people feel a moral obligation to keep people alive whether they can work or not. We have a great many people today who live past the age at which they want to work or are able to work;we also have rules which require people to retire at a certain age.Unless these people were able to save money for their retirement,somebody else must support them. In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near poverty. Older people have more illness than young or middle-aged people;unless they have wealth or private or government insurance,they must often"go on welfare"if they have a serious illness.
When older people become senile or too weak and ill to care for themselves,they create grave problems for their families.In the past and in some traditional cultures,they would be cared for at home until they died.Today,with most members of a household working or in school,there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person.To meet this need,a great many nursing homes and convalescent hospitals have been built. These are often profit-making organizations, although some are sponsored by religious and other nonprofit groups.While a few of these institutions are good,most of them are simply "dumping grounds"for the dying in which" care" is given by poorly paid,overworked,and underskilled personnel.In Paragraph 3,the phrase "this need" refers to________.
A:the need to prolong the lives of old people
B:the need to enrich the life of the retired people
C:the need to build profit-making nursing homes
D:the need to take care of a sick and weak person答案：D解析：第一段最后一句说：" In fact , it is a decrease in death rates , not an increase in birth rates , that has led to the population explosion.（实际上，导致人口爆炸的是死亡率的降低而不是出生率的增长。）”因此，选项C是正确答案。
第二段第四句：" In times of famine , infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved,whereas if the parents survived they could have another child.（在饥荒年代，人们可以忍受婴儿死亡，因为如果他们的父母饿死了，他们也无法生存，而如果父母生存下来，他们可以重新生儿育女。）”因此，选项B是正确答案。
从第二段倒数第二句“In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near poverty.”可以看出，在美国许多退休人员的生活是很艰难的。因此，选项A是正确答案。
第三段第三句：" Today , with most members of a household working or in school , there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person.（现在，由于大多数的家庭成员都在工作或上学，所以常常没有人在家照顾生病或身体虚弱的人。）”因此，选项D 是正确答案。
文章最后一句："...most of them are simply 'dumping grounds' for the dying in which 'care' is given by poorly paid , overworked , and under-skilled personnel.（大多数机构只不过是垂死的人的“垃圾场”，所谓的“照顾”都是由收入低、工作量大、技术水平低下的人员提供的。）”作者如此措辞显然是对大多数机构的强烈批评。因此，选项D是正确答案。 -

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。 -

第12题：
问答题练习1 Parents in China are always trying to help their children, even to make the most important decision for them, regardless of what the children really want, because parents believe it’s all for the benefit of their children. This has led to the result that the children’s growth and education tend to give way to their parents’ wishes. Once the parents decide to sign up an after school class for their children in order to increase their chance of being admitted to a good school, they will stick on their decision, even their children have no interest in it at all. In America, however, parents tend to respect their children, especially when making decisions. Perhaps it is commendable that Chinese parents lay much importance on education, but Chinese parents still need to keep the balance between the parents and children in the perspective of education as the American parents do.正确答案： 在中国,父母总是试图帮助他们的孩子,甚至为他们做重要的决定,而不管孩子想要什么,因为父母相信这样做是为了孩子好。结果,孩子的成长和教育往往屈从于父母的愿望。一旦父母决定为他们的孩子报名参加一个课外班,以增加他们被好学校录取的机会,他们会坚持自己的决定,即使他们的孩子根本不感兴趣。然而在美国,父母往往尊重孩子的意见,尤其是在做决定的时候。也许中国父母非常重视教育是值得称赞的。但是,他们应该向美国父母学习在涉及教育时如何平衡父母与孩子之间的关系。解析：
本题考查的翻译要点有：①regardless of，即不管某种情况；②for the benefit of sb意为“为了某人好”；③give way to表示“屈从于”；④lay much importance on意为“非常重视”；⑤keep the balance between…and…意为“保持……与……之间的平衡”；⑥in the perspective of表示“在……方面，涉及……”。 -

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
①The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. “We worry more about their safety in the holidays,” explains one mother from North London. If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentially dangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room! Well, that’s an extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about how much freedom they can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.
②Weekends are not the only time to worry! Newspaper are full of stories about too many school kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to travel alone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net. All the Media stories help increase parents fears, but is the UK really so dangerous?
③Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier. In the 1960s young people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents. “At least our parents can keep tabs on us（keep a tab/tabs on sth/sb>>keep account of , keep under observation）,” says 16-year-old Julia. “So many people have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are. I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late.” Mobiles are not just expensive toys; they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they make parents feel better. Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.
④Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home safely. Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger. Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did. Now school, television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to be responsible for their own safety.
31. Some parents are upset about the summer holidays mainly because their children ______.
A. wander around on bus in the city
B. chat to strangers in Internet chat rooms
C. make questionable friends on the net
D. are taken little care of by teachers

第21题：
Children for whom school has no point
Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings,or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them．Thousands more are not registered at any school at all,because of their families'unstable lives.
Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths．First of all,the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves．Secondly,once children go to school,we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.
In Britain,the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants'and excluded children back into the classroom．It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children．Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school;if they do not meet the target,the grant is withdrawn.
Parents are the subject of this campaign,too:the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.
Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should.
Part of the problem is__.A.that people feel very emotional
B.that parents worry their children at school
C.that these children think education is a waste of time
D.that there are not enough police to pick up truants on the streets答案：C解析：第二段。最后一句中的positive experience意为“有用的知识”。全句大意是“对孩子来说，如果在学校学到的知识对他们有用，他们将愿意在学校学下去”，而不是去浪费时间。 -

问答题Practice 4 The line of demarcation between the adult and the child world is drawn in many ways. For instance, many American parents may be totally divorced from the church, or entertain grave doubts about the existence of God, but they send their children to Sunday school and help them to pray. American parents struggle in a competitive world where sheer cunning and falsehood are often rewarded and respected, but they feed their children with nursery tales in which the morally good is pitted against the bad, and in the end the good inevitably is successful and the bad inevitably punished. When American parents are in serious domestic trouble, they maintain a front of sweetness and light before their children. Even if American parents suffer a major business or personal catastrophe, they feel obliged to turn to their children and say, “Honey, everything is going to be all right.” This American desire to keep the children’ s world separate from that of the adult is exemplified also by the practice of delaying transmission of the news to children when their parents have been killed in an accident. Thus, in summary, American parents face a world of reality while many of their children live in a near-ideal unreal realm where the rules of the parental world do not apply, are watered down, or are even reversed.正确答案： 【参考译文】
成人世界和儿童世界在许多方面泾渭分明。比如说,许多美国人可能从来不去教堂,或者对上帝是否存在十分怀疑,但是他们却会把孩子送到主日学校,教会他们祈祷。美国人生存的社会充满竞争,尔虞我诈才能名利双收,但是在他们教育孩子的幼儿故事里,在好人与坏人的斗争中最终却总是善有善报、恶有恶报。如果美国人出现严重的家庭危机,在孩子们面前,他们表面上却仍然是温柔可亲。即使工作、生活遭遇重大挫折,他们也认为有必要对孩子说:“宝贝儿,一切都会好起来的。”如果大人遭遇事故身亡,不会立刻把噩耗告诉孩子,这种做法也可以说明美国人希望让孩子的世界和成人的世界分离开来。因此,总的来说,美国人生活在现实的世界中,孩子则生活在一个几乎完美的天地里,这里成人世界的规则则不适用,淡化了,甚至完全相反。解析： 暂无解析
