44、是名词,故选C项。8A.survive Benjoy Cremember Dvalue答案:A与下文“died of common childhood _9_”对比可判断,以往人们童年要遭遇很多磨难,所以存活率低,而此句指更多的人经过了童年存活(survive)下来,故选A项。9A.problems Bfears Cworries Ddiseases答案:D根据本句中的“modern medicine”可判断,现代医学改变了自然法则,也就是说随着医学的发展,许多孩子不再死于儿童常见疾病(diseases),故选D项。10A.poor Byoung Csick Dquiet答案:B根据下文的“t
45、he chances of living long are much higher”可知,人们长寿的概率在升高,由此可推知,应选B项,即人们在年幼的时候死去的概率在降低。11A.changes BrecoveryCsafety Dincreases答案:A根据上一句中的“getting older”和下一句中的“such change”可判断,人们寿命的延长和人口老龄化这些变化(changes)正对我们的社会发展和生活方式产生持久的影响,故选A项。12A.dreams Bchances Cstrengths Dchoices答案:Bwhile意为“然而”,其前后句子之间为对比关系。故此空应与前

54、y a group of lizard (蜥蜴) fossils found in a Southeast Asian rainforest includes the oldest chameleon (变色龙) fossil ever discovered.Millions of years ago, a baby chameleon scurrying through a rainforest got trapped in resin, a sticky substance that oozes from trees. Over time, the resin hardened into
55、goldenyellow amber.When scientists analyzed that ancient piece of amber, they were amazed to see how well it had preserved the chameleon. They were also shocked when they determined the lizards ageabout 99 million years old.“This is the oldest recorded chameleon,” says Edward Stanley. “The previous

The fossils also included a gecko specimen. All of them were recently analyzed with the latest
