    [A] face his death with calm characteristic of euthanasia

    [B] experience the suffering of a lung cancer patient [

    C] have an intense fear of terrible suffering

    [D] undergo a cooling off period of seven days


    正确答案:A
    59. [A] 意为:死时表现出安乐死的平静特征。
       这实际上是说他将采用安乐死的方式离开人世。第三段提到,住在达尔文市(位于北部地方州)的尼克森患肺癌,对他来说,允许安乐死的法案的批准意味着他可以心情平静地生活,而无需惧怕将要遭受的死亡的折磨:由死时所产生的呼吸困难所带来的痛苦折磨。他说:从思想认识上讲,我并不怕死,但是,我怕的是如何死去,因为我曾亲眼目睹过医院的病人死时由缺氧而挣扎并抓挠氧气罩的情景。从以上的分析可以看出,尼克森先生知道自己已患绝症并依法为自己选择安乐死的方式告别人世。
       B 意为:经历肺癌病人所要遭受的痛苦。不对,相反,尼克森将会平静死去。
       C意为:对痛苦的折磨极度恐惧。
       D 意为:将经历 7天的平静阶段。第三段指出,根据北部地区新通过的法律,要求安乐死的病人必须具备以下条件: 1)该病人必须由两名医生诊断为晚期病人; 2)平静考虑7天后,病人签署一个申请证书;3)48 小时后再给病人实行安乐死。可见,这里所说的“平静”7天是让病人(及其家庭)平静、认真地考虑一下是否选择采用安乐死这一形式。

    答案:B
    解析:
    本句意思:光线在接近到环绕在黑洞旁边的强烈的引力场时迅速转向。heighten的意 思为“提高,升高”;deflect的意思为“使偏转,使偏斜”;rotate的意思为“旋转;使……转动,循环”; create的意思为“创造,创作”。turn aside的意思为“避开,闪开;使转变方向”,和deflect的意思 接近。

    Research Shows Walking Can Lift Depression

    New research by German scientists shows that author Charles Dickens was onto a good thing when he
    took long,brisk walks to relieve periodic bouts of depression.The author of Oliver Twist and David
    Copperfield would walk for hours in the l860s as an antidote to intense feelings of sadness which alternated
    with restless euphoria.__________(46)
    Aerobic exercise like rapid walking can be more effective at lifting depression than drugs,reported the
    scientists led by Dr. Fernando Dimeo._________(47)The team found that in 10 of these patients drugs had
    failed to bring any substantial improvement.The team devised an exercise regime for the group that involved
    walking on a treadmill for 30 minutes every day.__________(48)The intensity of the training programme was
    stepped up as the heart rate adapted.A measurement of depression severity was taken at the start and the
    end of the programme,and patients were asked to rate their own mood regularly over a 10-day period.The
    researchers in Berlin found that after 10 days of the course six patients felt"substantially less depressed".
    ___________(49)Two were slightly less depressed,while four others remained unchanged.Depression levels
    overall fell by a thirds and on the self-assessed scores by 25 percent,said the researchers whose findings
    appeared in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.
    The study was small but the extent of the improvement was said by scientists to be impressive._____(50)
    Nineteenth century doctors would have called Dickens'condition melancholia since the psychological
    condition of depression was unknown.Dickens'biographer Peter Ackroyd says the author's son Charles
    remembers his father's"heavy moods of deep depression"and many times of"intense nervous irritability",
    something modern psychologists would certainly recognize.

    _________(48)
    A:The number included five people who had not found any relief using drug treatment.
    B:Long and brisk walks are not necessarily beneficial to every person.
    C:They studied 12 people with severe depression that had lasted an average of nine months.
    D:The outcome indicated a clinical benefit which could not be obtained with pharmacological treatment currently available,they said.
    E:This is also the advice that experts from the Free University in Berlin are giving today.
    F:According to the regime,intense activity lasting three minutes was alternated with walking at half speed for three minutes.

    答案:F
    解析:
    第一段说到了狄更斯找到了一种方法,即通过散步几小时来缓解悲伤与亢奋交替的紧 张情绪。文章的第一段点明主题,而E项正是文章题目所要具体阐述的内容,故是最佳选项。
    由文章第二段第一句可知,科学家们报道,像快走这样的有氧运动在消除抑郁情绪方 面比药物更有效。显然下面需要具体说明这个结论的证据。C项的“They studied”指这些科学 家进行了研究。空白处的后一句“The team”还是指这些人。故用C项来连接上下文是最恰 当的。
    空白处的前一句说,这些科学家为病人制订了一个锻炼计划,选项F一开始就说“根据 这个计划······”,可见后句与前句之间具有衔接关系,故它是最佳选项。
    前面提到被研究的人共有12人,且空白处的前一句说有6位病人感到抑郁程度明显减 轻,空白处的后一句说有2位稍微减轻,4位无变化。A项的大意为,其中包括五位以前使用药 物而病情没有任何缓解的病人,故将它放在此处最恰当。
    空白处的前一句说这次研究的范围虽小,但病人病情改善的程度却给人很深的印象, 此段实际上是对研究作总结。D项内容也是一句总结性的话:“研究结果表明,它对临床是有 益处的,而这却是现有的药物治疗所不能及的”,故把它放在此处也是最恰当的。第6部分:完形填空

  • 第11题:

    问答题
    Practice 6  Most people would be impressed by the high quality of medicine available to most Americans. There is a lot of specialization, a great deal of attention to the individual, a vast amount of advanced technical equipment, and intense effort not to make mistakes because of the financial risk which doctors and hospitals must face in the courts if they handle things badly.  But the Americans are in a mess. The problem is the way in which health care is organized and financed. Contrary to public belief, it is not just a free competition system. The private system has been joined a large public system, because private care was simply not looking after the less fortunate and the elderly.

    正确答案:
    【参考译文】
    对于大多数人来说,大多数美国人能用到的高品质的药给他们都留下了印象。这里有大量的专业化,大量对个体的关注,大量先进的技术设备,以及为避免犯错而付出的巨大努力,因为如果医生和医院处理不当,他们就必须在法庭上面对财务风险。
    但是美国人处境很困难。问题在于卫生保健的组织和筹资方式。与公众信念相反,它不只是一个自由的竞争体制。这个私有的体制已经加入了大的公有体制,因为私人医护根本不照顾不幸的人和年长的人。

  • 第16题:


    Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder whose main symptom is excessive, overriding sleepiness. A victim can fall asleep anytime, anywhere, even in the most circumstances. And there is no cure. “Having narcolepsy,” says Bill, “is like always being as sleepy as a normal person might be after staying awake three days.”
    It is estimated that a quarter million Americans have narcolepsy, mostly undiagnosed. This is because, in a physical exam,a doctor may not find anything wrong with a narcoleptic person. It may take years, and visits to several doctors, before a narcoleptic discovers the name of his problem. Researchers now believe that the disease is triggered by a chemical imbalance in the part of the brain that controls wakefulness. Initial symptoms may also include a sudden loss if muscle tone brought on by an intense emotion--anything from anger to laughter. Some narcoleptics hallucinate or develop sleep paralysis, which is the feeling during the lighter stages of sleep of being completely unable to move or talk. The prognosis for a patient with narcolepsy isn’t good. Narcoleptics have the disease all their lives, and many cannot hold down a job or lead a normal life. Some narcoleptics take daily doses of prescribed drugs like Dexedrine --”uppers”--to stay awake lone enough to function. The problem of narcolepsy is being studied now, and someday there may be a cure. But current sufferers must endure an existence, that is, as one woman said, “like walking through glue.”
    All of the following symptoms of narcolepsy are true EXCEPT()

    A. a sudden loss of muscle tone
    B. an intense emotion of anger or laughter
    C. a feeling of being unable to move or talk
    D. excessive sleepiness

    答案:B

    They would become less intense.

    B

    They would last longer than usual.

    C

    They would cause problems later.

    D

    They would become more negative.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    从第三段“…The free expression by outward signs of an emotion intensifies it. On the other hand, the repression, as far as possible, of all outward signs softens our emotions.”可知,达尔文认为,压制人们的情感使其不表达出来将会舒缓人们的情感。
