These days thats more than an academic question, as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.There are now more than a thousand genetic（基因的）tests, for everything from baldness to breast cancer, and the list is growing. Question is, do you really want to know what might eventually kill you? For instance, Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson, one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer（老年痴呆症）.“If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease, that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious, through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you. It could really mess you up.” Said Dr. Robert Green, a Harvard geneticist.“Every ache and pain,” Smith suggested, could be understood as “the beginning of the end.”“That s right. If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimers disease, then every time you cant find your car in the parking lot, you think the disease has started.”Dr. Green has been thinking about this issue for years. He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimers. It was thought that people who got bad news would, for lack of a better medical term, freak out. But Green and his team found that there was“no significant difference”between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives. In fact, most people think they can handle it. People who ask for the information usually can handle the information, good or bad, said Green.71.The first paragraph is meant to_.A. ask some questionsB. introduce the topicC. satisfy readers curiosityD. describe an academic fact【答案】B【解析】通过两个问题引出话题。72.Which of the following is true of James Watson？A. He is strongly in favor of the present genetic tests.B. He is more likely to suffer from Alzheimers disease.C. He believes genetic mapping can help cure any disease.D. He doesnt want to know his chance of getting a disease.【答案】D【解析】根据第二段Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson, one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer。“James Watson要求如果他的基因表明他有很高的老年痴呆症的可能不要告诉他。”73.According to Paragraphs 3 and 4, if a person is at a higher genetic risk, it is_.A. advisable not to let him knowB. impossible to hide his diseaseC. better to inform him immediatelyD. necessary to remove his anxiety【答案】A【解析】根据这两个自然段可知，如果你提前被告知你将来可能患某种可怕的疾病会mess you up。74.The underlined part“freak out”in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to“_”.A. break downB. drop outC. leave offD. turn away【答案】A【解析】根据下文But的转折，以及no significant difference可知，freak out的意思是A（精神垮掉）。75.The study led by Dr. Green indicates that people_.A. prefer to hear good newsB. tend to find out the truthC. can accept some bad newsD. have the right to be informed【答案】C【解析】根据第五段内容 In fact, most people think they can handle it可知答案选C.阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Cancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them. Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers in a good state? All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustration (沮丧)into the open. People who have a row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up their feelings. If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill in more fun, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hours anger. The teaching in the Bible“Let not the sun go down upon your wrath(愤怒)”is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious. 1. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the text? A. Stress is the direct cause of cancer. B. The cause of stress is worthy of serious study. C. Cancer is the number one killer in our society today. D. People who cant accept a different living standard are less likely to suffer from stress. 2. Judging from the text, the underlined word “row”in the third paragraph most probably means_.A. a noisy quarrelB. a boat journeyC. a good relationship D. a cured disease3. Which of the following is not mentioned as a way to reduce our stress? A. Changing our jobs. B. Changing our attitude about little things that make us unpleased. C. Speaking out about our frustrations. D. Reading the Bible. 4. “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath”probably means_.A. Dont let your anger last longB. Dont get angry even though the sun is going downC. Something important that disturbs us is worth an hours angerD. Watch the sunset while you are angry【参考答案】31.BADA 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。“Congratulations, Mr. Jones, its a girl.”Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different answer from every man who hears these words. Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly. Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child,it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this remobilization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father. It is argued by some writers that the transition to the fathers role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mothers role. The mothers role seems to require complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation; on the other hand,the fathers role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing number of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household. 1. According to the author, being a father_.A. brings a feeling of excitement to some menB. has a different meaning for those who have daughtersC. makes some men feel proud and others uneasyD. means nothing but more responsibilities2. It is stated in the passage that_.A. some parents are not prepared to have a childB. young couples do not like children at allC. working couples do not have much time to take care of their childrenD. many parents look forward to having a boy as their first child3. The transition to the mothers role requires that the wife_.A. change her lifestyle in a highly innovative wayB. make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situationC. stay at home to take care of the babyD. help her husband in his remobilization process4. Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles,fathers,compared with mothers, _.A. have to shoulder more burdensB. have to make more difficult adaptationsC. have an easier job to doD. can usually do a better job【参考答案】32.CABC
