18、ical Research Council found that elderly people who could still give a firm handshake and walk at a quick pace were likely to outlive their slower peers (同等的人).They found simple measures of physical capability like shaking hands, walking, getting up from a chair and balancing on one leg were related

19、 to life expectancy. The study is the first to provide a comprehensive view of the existing research by data from 33 studies. “These measures have been used in population-based research for quite a long time,” said Rachel Cooper of the Medical Research Councils Unit for Lifelong Health and Aging. “T

20、hey may be useful indicators for subsequent health.”Cooper, whose study appeared in the British Medical Journal, said more studies would be needed to clarify whether the measures would be helpful to doctors as a screening (筛选的) tool. “I wouldnt suggest that we make use of them in clinical practice t

21、omorrow, but it is possible that they could be used in the future,” she told the media.The researchers examined 33 studies involving tens of thousands of people, most of whom were aged over 60 living in the community rather than in hospital or care homes.

22、rongest hand grip(紧握) tended to live longer than those with weak grips. The death rate over the period of the studies for people with weak handshakes was 67 percent higher than for people with a firm grip. The slowest walkers were nearly three times more likely to die during the study period than sw

23、ifter walkers. The people who were slowest to get up from a chair had about double the death rate compared to the quick risers.“Those people in the general population who have higher physical capability levels are likely to live longer,” Cooper said.56.

C。 他过来解释的内容，就是自己犯错的原因，因此用why。40. C。 run out 用光，用尽。41. A。小伙子自己犯了错误，所以想来 “补偿”，用pay for。42. B。 从后文来看，作者也没有让这

83、个小伙子来赔偿，所以这里应该是“安慰”。43. B。从第二段的I could feel his genuine stress, and as he gave me his details我们知道，小伙子要给作者自己的信息资料，以便于日后赔偿联系，可是作者拒绝了。因此这里同事们所谈论的也应该是这件事情，所以选details。44.

C。 为了不让小伙子着急，作者“决定”给他写信。make ones decision to do sth 决定做某事。51. B。 通过前文我们知道，作者已经买了一辆车。manage to do sth是成功地做某事；而try to do sth 试图做某事（不一定成功）。

85、因此本题选B。52. D。 作者不想让小伙子赔偿，也就是不想在他那里“找赔偿”，因此用seek。53. B。作者的本意是让小伙子去帮助别人，因此用help。 54. A。 作者不让小伙子赔偿了，他自然很“感激”了，用grateful。55. A。以前同事和姐姐的劝说使得作者不能早下决心，因此他这里是后悔自己没有早相信自己的话。trust相信，信任。第三部分56. B。文章首句A firm handshake could be a sign of a longer life expectancy提示可知，outlive意为“比活得长”。57. A。从文章第二段内容可知A项正确。58. D。从文章

86、第三段内容可知，这项研究有潜在的使用价值。59. C。文章最后一段为文章主题句，C项最能表达这一主旨，故选C。60. D。根据第一段最后一句可知。A、B项的错误在于：Visible Speech是Bell父亲的发明，是帮助Eliza的；C项应该是：Bell将父亲的发明用于教自己的学生。61. A。第二段中提到，Bell在发明电话机时，把工作分为两个方面：Watson负责送话器；Bell本人负责接收器。每隔一天他们会综合实验一次。62. A。由第三段首句可知。63. C。 文章主要围绕Bell来写，介绍了他是如何发明电话的。其中提到他的父亲，Watson以及Dom Pedro等，都旨在介绍他成功

87、的外在条件。64. D。文章没有提到爱迪生没上学的原因。65. A。爱迪生年轻时喜欢阅读（reading），这为后来的成功打下了基础；勤奋（hard work）和第一段提到的“When he got an idea he would not give up.”(willpower)都是成功者的品质。而A项（失去听力）却不大可能成为一个人取得成功的必备条件。66. D。从第四段可知答案。其余几个选项中，A项是事实，但不特别（special），B、C项文章没有提到。67. D68. B。整篇文章的五个小标题后的内容都与raise money 有关系，因此选项B 最佳。69. A。 第四段中“Use

88、 the Who Do You Know principle.”的意思就是利用认识和熟悉的人进行集资活动。70. B。第四段中提到“Do you have a friend in a band? Do you know the owner of a bar or restaurant?”，显然艾伯特的情况正好合适。71. B。文章最后的“Please remember there are some people who are not so lucky as we are and its our duty to help them.”容易被忽视，但它说明了集资的目的是帮助那些在经济上有困难的人

89、；在第一段中“One way to request for general donations .”和第五段中“. donate your profit to charity or give people who need financial help.”也提示了答案。72. D。文章是有关友谊的日记，记述了作者与好友莎伦之间发生的一件不愉快的事情，之后又重新和好的故事。73. C。从前三段能看出，作者还不能原谅莎伦。由第三段前两句可知，作者当时对莎伦不能信守诺言而感到失望和苦恼。74. A。根据第二段第一句和第三句可知，莎伦把作者的身世告诉了其他人，未能信守诺言，所以失去了作者的信任。75.

90、 B。根据最后一段第二句和第四句可知，作者与莎伦玩得非常开心，故可推断fantastic与wonderful同义。第四部分第一节选做题一76. helpedhelping。用V-ing作状语，补充说明谓语动词work所做的具体事情。容易误以为是与work并列的谓语动词而用helped。77. 78. 在sold后加out。sell out意为“售完”，符合短文意思。79. tallhigh。形容物体的“高”用形容词high，tall一般用来表示人的“高”。80. 去掉for。reach sth可表示“够得着某物”，此处用于“too . to .”结构中表示“够不着米袋”。而reach for

91、sth表示“伸手取某物”，不合文意。81. othersother。前面只提到两个箱子，故用the other。82. was后面加about。句式为“be about to do sth + when .”，表示“正要做某事，就在这时”。83. thatwhat。what引导宾语从句并作动词do的宾语，that只能起引导作用，不能作宾语。84. openedopen。open adj. 作宾语补足语，表示“把门推开了”。85. buryingburied。独立结构作状语。在逻辑上，his head是动词bury的承受者，故用过去分词构成独立结构。选做题二76. wherewhen 77. a

92、wakewoke 78. whichwhere 79. burntburning 80. 在fetch前加to 81. pourspoured 82. offout 83. 去掉not 84. windowwindows 85. gogoing第二节 One day after school I went home for supper.
