28、 not worry about.【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。近年来,日本人的寿命逐渐增长,分析其原因可能与遗传、饮食、锻炼、保健等有关。1longer考查形容词比较级。句意:根据世界健康报告,近年来,日本人的寿命比其他任何国家的人都长。根据than这个词,此处是日本人和其他国家的人做比较。故答案为longer。2has increased考查时态。句意:在最近的40年中,这个数字有所增加。本句中有时间状语“in the last forty years”,故应用现在完成时,又因本句主语是“this figure”。故答案为has increased。3is expected考查语态。句意:预
29、计到2050年将达到近1,000,000。短语be expected to do是固定搭配,意为“期望, 预计, 有望做某事”。本句为一般现在时,又因本句主语是it。故答案为is expected。4On考查介词。句意:平均而言,日本女性的预期寿命为86岁,日本男性的预期寿命为79岁。固定搭配on average意为“平均”,符合句意。故答案为On。5their考查代词。句意:许多人问他们长寿的秘诀是什么。形容词性物主代词修饰life作定语。故答案为their。6a考查冠词。句意:有人说日本人寿命更长,是因为他们的饮食比其他人更好。diet为可数名词,本句表示泛指,应使用不定冠词,better
30、是以辅音音素开头的单词。故答案为a。7factors考查名词复数。句意:还有许多其他因素可以帮助他们寿命更长。句中用到了factor(因素),其为名词,因为前面有“many other”,所以要用复数。故答案为factors。8to live考查不定式。句意:日本是一个非常安全的生活场所,家庭和社区经常相距很近,这为每个日本人提供了很多安慰和支持。不定式短语to live作后置定语修饰place。故答案为to live。9which考查关系代词。使用定语从句中的关系代词指代前面整句话的意思,因有逗号隔开,因此是非限制性定语从句,所以用which。故答案为which。10Finally考查词形转化。 通读全文可知,前面已经讲到了几个方面的原因,如饮食、锻炼等,这里是讲最后一个原因:比较完善的医疗保健。因此这里应该用副词,表示“最后”。故答案为Finally。
