18、 magazine.D. On a book cover. B Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment. My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra
19、 minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counte
20、r, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table. I dont only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. Its equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved
21、one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldnt be here. But then I thought about the fact that
22、hes 84 years old and I realized that I shouldnt give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all. I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy o
23、f doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that Im doing the right thing. Im buying myself peace of mind and thats the best ki
24、nd of insurance for my emotional well-being. 24. Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule? A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated. B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working. C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better. D. Move an object out o
25、f the way before it trips someone. 25. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to _. A. keep her appointment with the eye doctor B. meet her father who was already an old man C. join in the holiday celebration of the company D. finish her work before the deadline approached26. The unde
26、rlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _. A. abandoned B. lacked C. avoided D. seized27. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Emotional Well-being B. The Two Saddest Words C. The Most Useful Rule D. The Peace of Mind C Alzheimers disease has no cure. There are, howe
27、ver, five drugsknown and approvedthat can slow down the development of its symptoms. The earlier such drugs are administered, the better. Unfortunately, the disease is usually first noticed when people complain to their doctors of memory problems. That is normally too late for the drugs to do much g
28、ood. A simple and reliable test for Alzheimers that can be administered to everybody over the age of about 65, before memory-loss sets in, would therefore be useful. Theo Luider, of the Erasmus University Medical Centre in Rotterdam, and his colleagues think they have found onebut it works only in w
29、omen. They made their discovery, just reported in the Journal of Proteome Research, by tapping into a long-term, continuing study that started in 1995 with 1,077 non-demented and otherwise healthy people aged between 60 and 90. At the beginning of the project, and subsequently during the periods 199
30、7-99 and 2002-04, participants were brought in for a battery of neurological (神经学的) and cognitive (认知的) investigations, physical examinations, brain imaging and blood tests. During the first ten years of the study, 43 of the volunteers developed Alzheimers diseases. When Dr. Luider compared blood sa
31、mples from these people with samples from 43 of their fellow volunteers, matched for sex and age, who had remained Alzheimers-free, he found something surprising. Levels of a substance called pregnancy zone protein (妊娠带蛋白) had been unusually high, even before their symptoms appeared, in some of thos
32、e who went on to develop Alzheimers disease. Those “some”, it turned out, were all women. On average, levels of pregnancy zone protein in those women who went on to develop Alzheimers were almost 60% higher than those of women who did not. In men, levels of the protein were the same for both.The rea
33、son for this curious result seems to be that the brain plaques (斑块) associated with Alzheimers disease are themselves turning out pregnancy zone protein. Certainly, when Dr. Luider applied a chemical stain specific to that protein to the plaques of dead Alzheimers patients he found the protein prese
34、nt in them. Confusingly, though, it was there in the plaques of both sexes. Presumably, female cells (and therefore the plaques of female brains) make more of it than male cells do. But that remains to be proved. Whatever the reason, however, this result means that women, at least, may soon be able
35、to tell whether and when they are at risk of Alzheimers and thus do something about it before they start losing their minds.28. What can we learn from the first paragraphA. No medication can slow down the development of Alzheimers symptoms. B. To detect Alzheimers disease before memory loss appears
36、is vital.C. Doctors had better handle Alzheimers disease when people are 65 years old. D. People who always complain are most likely to have Alzheimers disease. 29. The underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refers to _. A. a simple and reliable test for Alizheimers B. a possible cure for Alzheimers C
37、. an important discovery about Alzheimers D. an effective and legal drug for Alzheimers 30. What does Dr. Luiders study tell us about the pregnancy zone proteinA. It wont go high until the symptoms of Alzheimers appear. B. In men, levels of it remain stable for their lifetime. C. Women developing Al
38、zheimers usually have lower levels of it. D. The brain plaques connected with Alzheimers produce it. 31. The passage is mainly about _.A. patients of Alzheimers disease and its drugsB. an introduction to the pregnancy zone protein C. a new discovery concerning Alzheimers disease D. the development s
39、tages of Alzheimers disease D The newspaper must provide for the reader the facts，pure，unprejudiced，objectively selected factsBut in these days of complex news it must provide more； it must supply interpretation（解读），the meaning of the factsThis is the most important assignment facing American journa
