There are many reasons for this typically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men dont
60、go to the doctor. “Men arent seeing doctors as often as they should,” says Dr. Gullotta. “This is particularly so for the over-40s, when diseases tend to strike.”Gullotta says a healthy man should visit the doctor every year or two.

61、o Gullotta saw a 50-year-old man who had delayed doing anything about his smokers cough for a year.“When I finally saw him it had already spread and he has since died from lung cancer,” he says. “Earlier detection and treatment may not have cured him, but it would have prolonged his life.” According
62、 to a recent survey, 95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70% of men in the same age group. “A lot of men think theyre undefeatable,” Gullota says. “They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, Geez, if it could happen to h

He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed
64、 by preventive check-ups. Regular check-ups for men would inevitably place strain on the public purse, Cartmill says. “But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases. Besides, the ultimate cost is far greater: it is called premature death.”41. Why does the author congrat

70、 reading this congratulations: youre a survivor. 恭喜的内容:youre a survivor,意思是你是一位幸存者。“幸存者”的潜台词就是本来“我”可能已经死了,但因为某些原因才幸运地活到现在。故选C。42.B。解析:细节理解题 根据第二段There are many reasons for this typically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men dont go
71、to the doctor. 原因有三点,一是危险(risks),一是抽烟喝酒,一是不看医生(dont go to doctor)。其中在引出第三点时,作者称之为more importantly,也就是比前几点重要。鉴于文中已找不出其他原因,则更为重要也就是最重要,答案应该是“不看医生”。B的说法与此一致。43.A。解析:判断推理题 问下列哪句话填入文中if it could happen to him之后最为合适。此段之前的几段内容的核心思想是男性看医生的次数大大少于女性。本段开头说到很多男性认为自己是不可战胜的(invincible),这句话照应上文的内容,应该是男性不愿看医生的原因所在。
72、下一句说到男性仅仅得知一个朋友死在高尔夫球场上才开始有所醒悟,这样的话,他们此时所想的一定是对自身状况的担心,否则就不能体现出转折含义。四个选项中A最为合适。44.D。解析:细节理解题 题目问的是Cartmill所说的the ostrich approach是什么意思。根据第九段第二句“Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know,” says Dr. Ross Cartmill. 男人害怕疾病,所以不想了解疾病。关键词scared。(鸵鸟遇到危险时会把头插到沙子里,以不正视危险来逃避危险,这就是鸵鸟方
73、式的来由。男性对待疾病的方式与此类似,所以被称为使用了鸵鸟的方法。)45.B。解析:细节理解题 最后一段主要论述了男性定期体检的问题,提到了Cartmill的三点看法。第一,定期体检毫无疑问会给公共支出带来压力(最后一段的第一句话)。选项A中用词体检可能会增加公共支出。排除A。第二,预防疾病比治疗疾病更加便宜。第三,最终的代价要远为昂贵,那就是英年早逝(最后一句话)。故选B。【题文】DWhen English as a foreign language is taught to children at the primary and early secondary levels of educ
74、ation, it is generally taught with a general education aim in mind that is, it is regarded as a “good thing” for them to learn a foreign language as a part of a broad education. There is usually, however, no immediate and specific requirement for such children to make use of the language in any comm
75、unicative situation. The purpose of learning the language is essentially a “deferred” (延缓的) purpose, deferred till the tertiary (第三的) level of education, normally at university, where, it is agreed, a knowledge of English would be helpful in their academic studies. Immediate aims of learning English
76、 are defined by the requirements of examinations. Inevitably what is taught to primary and secondary level children is not a communicative knowledge of English language use, but a knowledge of how the rules of English operate. The language system is taught by means of systematic audio-lingual (听说的)
