First of all, human males seem to be slowly disappearing. Mother Nature has always acknowledged and compensated for the fragility and loss of boys by arranging for more of them: 106 male births to 100 female newborns over the course of human history. But in recent decades, from the United States to Japan, from Canada to northern Europe, wherever researchers have looked, the rate of male newborns has declined. Examining US birth records for the years between 1970 and 1990, they found 1.7 fewer boys per 1,000 than in decades and centuries past; Japans loss in the same decades was 3.7 boys.Boys are also more than two-thirds more likely than girls to be bom prematurely before the 37th week of pregnancy. And, despite advances in public health, boys in the 1990s faced a 30 percent higher chance of death by their first birthday than girls; in contrast, back in the 1750s, they were only 10 per cent more likely than girls to die so early in their lives.Once they make it to childhood, boys face other challenges. They are more prone to a range of neurological disorders. Autism 自闭症 is notoriously higher among boys than girls: now nearly five times more likely, as tallied by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. They are more susceptible than girls to damage from very low-level exposure to lead. Yet another problem: boys suffer from asthma at higher rates. Theres also a stronger link between air pollution and autism in boys.Why do boys face such a burden of physical challenges? The answer is that the males problems start in the womb: from his more complicated fetal development, to his genetic makeup, to how his hormones work. The nine-month transformation from a few cells to an infant is a time of great vulnerability. Many chronic illnesses are seeded in the womb. In our species, the female is the default gender, the basic simpler model: Humans start out in the womb with female features (that is why males have nipples). The complicated transformation in the womb from female to male exposes the male to a journey packed with special perils. When the first blast of testosterone 睾酮 from the Y gene comes along at about the eighth week, the unisex brain has to morph into a male brain, killing off some cells in the communication centers and growing more cells in the sex and aggression centers. The simpler female reproductive system has to turn into the more complex male reproductive tract, developing tissues such as the testis and prostate 前列腺.Further, it takes a greater number of cell divisions to make a male; with each comes the greater risk of an error as well as the greater vulnerability to a hit from pollutants.On top of that challenge, the human males XY chromosome 染色体 combination is simply more vulnerable. The two XXs in the female version of our species offer some protection: In disorders where one X chromosome has a genetic defect, the females healthy backup chromosome can take over. But with his single X chromosome, the male lacks a healthy copy of the gene to fall back on. The X chromosome, which never shrank, is also a larger chromosome “with far more genetic information than the Y chromosome, finds Irva Hertz-Piciotto, a University of California at Davis autism researcher, “so there may be some inherent loss of key proteins for brain development or repair mechanisms in boys.” This is a clue to the higher autism rate among boys, she asserts.Females also have a stronger immune system because they are packed with estrogen 雌激素,a hormone that counteracts the antioxidant process. “Estrogen protects the brain,” explains Theodore Slotkin, professor of neurobiology at Duke Universitys School of Medicine. “It repairs and replaces, even after neural injury,” Low estrogen even leaves boys more sensitive to head injuries. The male brain “is simply a more fragile apparatus, more sensitive to almost all brain insults,” says lead poisoning expert Herbert Needleman.It is the high levels of testosterone in the womb at critical times in gestation, according to British psychopathologist Simon Baron-Cohen, that are responsible for what he calls “the extreme male brain” - the kind exhibited by autistic boys - low in empathy, high in systematizing. And in fact US researchers in recent decades have found unusually low estrogen and high testosterone levels among boys with autism.If the balance of hormones is out of whack in males, what made that happen? Researchers are coming up with some clues. In the New York City neighborhoods near Columbia Universitys Center for Childrens Environmental Health, families for years routinely sprayed their apartments with a popular insecticide, chlorpyrifos, until it was banned from household use in 2001. The researchers found that prenatal exposure to the chemical seemed to have more of an effect on reducing the IQs of boys than girls. Disruption of their male hormones may be the reason, “One possible explanation for the greater sensitivity of boys to chlorpyrifos is that the insecticide acts as an endocrine disruptor 肉分泌干扰素 to suppress sex-specific hormones,” said study leader Megan Horton of Columbia.Similarly, pregnant mothers exposure to phthalates 邻苯二甲酸酉旨一used in making some vinyl 乙矯基 products and toys as well as some personal care products - has been linked to bigger changes in the behavior, such as aggression and attention problems, of their sons than their daughters. Phthalates also may feminize male genitalia.Boys also seem to be more vulnerable to bisphenol A, an estrogenic substance used to make polycarbonate plastics as well as the linings of food and beverage cans. Boys, but not girls, exposed to higher bisphenol A levels in the womb or during childhood had more hyperactivity, aggression and anxiety problems, according to a University of California at Berkeley study. In addition, pregnant women exposed to higher levels of the chemical gave birth to baby boys with lower thyroid hormones 甲状腺激素.No such effect was detected in the baby girls. No one knows what these lower levels may mean for the boys health because they remained within normal boundaries, but it could have important effects because thyroid hormones guide brain development.Some of these chemicals act like fake estrogens, others like fake testosterone, but both types seem to disrupt normal development. Animal tests show that a dose of these chemicals inflict the most damage when it hits a fetus. And, because of their biological vulnerabilities, it is boys who may experience the most effects. While not forgoing the push for fairness and equality, it seems wise to accept the scientific reality of male weaknesses. This likely wont mean the end of men, but their vulnerability to environmental contaminants and diseases could have serious ramifications for the future of the entire human race unless we find ways to protect them from harm.1.If text B is accurate, then the evidence for the assertion that human males are gradually disappearing is( ) .2.Compared with girls, boys are( ) .3.Nipples in humans are found on the( ) .4.In paragraph 10 the author asserts that chronic diseases( ) .5.Backup in paragraph 11 means something that ( ).6.The levels of thyroid hormones in new bom males, mentioned in paragraph 16, ( ).7.Imagine that environmental pollution continues at current or higher levels in China.

(2)enough, he has the same name (3)our professor. (4)of them arenamed Michael Wilson. Professor Wilson is only 39, and were always called him “Mike”. To (5)confusion, weve decided to call the new member of our research group “Michael”,(6) though it does sound a bit formal especially when we use a nickname to address the professor who (7)our group.大意: 昨天,一个新毕业生加入了我们的研究团队。奇怪的是,他和我们的教授同名,他们两个都叫迈克威尔逊。威尔逊教授只有39岁,所以我们经常叫他“Mike”。为了避免混乱,我们还是决定叫新成员为“Michael”一一尽管这听起来有些正式,尤其是当我们用昵称称呼领导我们团队的教授时候。【答案】1.joined2.Funny3.as4.Both5.avoid6.even7.leads【解析】1.词汇题。句意: 昨天,一个新毕业生加入了我们的研究团队。2.词汇题。后文说:新来的成员和教授同名, 可推断前文应为 “有趣的是”。所以此处填入形容词funny。3.固定搭配。The same as 与一样。4.固定搭配。Both of A and B 两者都。5.词汇题。句意: 为了避免混乱,我们还是决定叫新成员为“Michael”。6.逻辑分析。句意: 尽管这听起来有些正式,而且空格后为though,因此此处填even表示让步。7.词汇题。这里是who引导的定语从句,修饰先行词the professor,所以空格处的动词应与宾语our group搭配,而且定语从句中主语为the professor,因此填leads。8. 填空题I (1)to speak Russian fluently, but thats not true now. In fact, I can no (2)carry on even a simple conversation in the language. I (3)be able to get back my former fluency if I stayed in Russia for a (4)months.句意: 过去我能很流利地讲俄语,但是现在不能了。实际上,我现在甚至连简单的俄语对话都进行不了。如果能在俄国待几个月,我想自己应该可以再次流利地说俄语。【答案】1.used2.longer3.should4.few【解析】1.固定搭配。Used to 过去常常。2.固定搭配。No longer 再也不能。3.语法题。考查虚拟语气。这里用情态动词should。4.固定搭配。A few months 几个月。9. 填空题Is (1)a car really such a good idea?
