第三部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Neddine Parker is up by 7 in the morning. After her morning exercises and some housework, she drives to the local hospital, where she volunteers once a week. What makes Parker’s routine so extraordinary is that she is 104 years old.
“I don’t know why I’m still here,” she said.
Dr. Thomas Perls of the Boston University Medical Center is trying to figure that out. As the director of the New England Centenarian (百岁老人) Study, he studies there “super humans”, those aged 100 years and older.
“It’s like winning the lottery”, he said. “You’ve got to choose the right numbers and the right combination.”
Researchers believe about 30 percent of aging is genetic. For those who get to extremely old ages, family history may play an even more important role.
Reuben Landau’s mother lived to 100, and three of his brothers and sisters into their 90s. Landau is nearly 102, and he still practices law a few hours every day. Both Landau and Parker are remarkably healthy. They take few medications and have no major illness.
Perls has found that many centenarians lack a type of gene—E4—that is associated with an increased risk of heart disease. One study found the gene is in 29 percent of young men, but only 15 percent of centenarians. Perls also believes they may have a “protective gene”, one that helps them survive what might kill others. Parker, for example, smoked until she was 100 and had a stroke at 89.
However, living into your 100s isn’t just genetics. Aging successfully has much to do with environment and behavior. Landau watches what he eats and exercises his body and mind every day. He’s convinced it’s why he’s still in good health. “People still have to do the right things to get to very old age,” said Perls. So it’s not just the cards you’re dealt, but how you play the hand.
56. According to the first two paragraphs, what Parker doesn’t know in fact means __________.
A. why researchers are studying her B. why she still can manage her routine
C. why she volunteers once a week in the hospital D. why she is still living at the age of 104
57. By saying “It’s like winning the lottery”, Dr. Thomas Perls means __________.
A. it is quite unusual to be a centenarian B. it is very difficult to find “super humans”
C. it is a tough job investigating the aging process D. it takes a long time to win a lottery
58. Why are Landau and Parker remarkably healthy according to the research?
A. Because they are remarkably active in mind. B. Because they lack a gene linked to illness.
C. Because they are fond of social work. D. Because they enjoy sports and housework.
59. According to the last paragraph, centenarians can live long, still depending on __________.
A. the genes they inherit B. environment and exercise
C. the right things to do before aging D. a close personal relationship
B
Mom was right! If you say thank you, for even the smallest gift or slightest show of kindness, you’ll feel happy.
Gratitude, says Robert A. Emmons, a professor of psychology at the University of California, is an extremely important element of happiness. In his most recent book Thanks!, Emmons uses the first major study on gratitude to prove mom’s point. In acknowledging and promoting this much ignored expression of thankfulness, he explains how people have benefited—even improved their health.
As one of the leading scholars of the positive psychology movement, he admits gratitude may be difficult to express. He recommends you begin by acknowledging that life is good and full of events and elements that make daily existence a wonder.
Second, recognize that the source of life’s goodness is more than just you. That source may be your mom, a friend, partner, child, colleague at work or play, a caregiver or God—or any combination of these.
Expressing gratitude should not be a reaction. Instead, it should be a state of mind, To feel grateful when life is a breeze and you have more than what you need is easy. To be grateful in times of crisis—anger, hatred and bitterness—is easier. Also, too many people are aware of life’s blessings only after these are lost.
It’s crisis and chaos—danger, disease, disability and death—that bring many individuals to realize just how dependent they are on others. Yet it’s the way each of us begins life and ends it. It’s too hard that so many people waste those decades in between laboring under the illusion（幻觉） that they are self sufficient, says Emmons.
I’m not a reader or advocate of self help books, but I am thankful for the reference I found in a newspaper article to the research Emmons was conducting on gratitude involving organ donors and recipients（接受者）. The chance discovery led me to this book.
Mom implied that kindness seems to find its way back to the giver because life really is all about giving, receiving and repaying. So I’ll follow her advice and say: Thank you, Professor Emmons.
60. What is mainly discussed in the text?
A. Being thankful will keep you fit.
B. Mom is great for her being thankful.
C. There are many ways of being thankful.
D. Gratitude is of vital importance to happiness.
61. It will be easier for you to feel grateful when
A. you live a comfortable life
B. you receive gifts on your birthday
C. you get help during your hard times
D. you are congratulated on your success
62. Mom may most probably agree with the following point that ______.
A. it is easy to express your gratitude
B. kindness may somehow be repaid
C. people should always think of giving rather than receiving
D. only deeds like organ donation are worth your gratitude
C
When Russell Lyons volunteered for the first time, he read Goodnight Moon to a class of San Diego preschoolers. And it wasn’t reading－he’d memorized the book and was reciting it out loud. He was 4. Still, he said it felt good up there, in front of the other kids, lending a hand. He wanted more of that feeling.
Thirteen years later, he’s getting a lot of it. He’s on a five-month road trip across America－not sightseeing, but volunteering.
The University City resident has spent time at an animal reserve in Utah, a women’s shelter in St. Louis, a soup kitchen in New York, a retirement home in Tucson. This week he’s in Los Angeles, at a program that supports disabled youth.
“I just like helping people and feeling that something I do is making a difference,” he said. He resists the idea that his “Do Good Adventure” is all that unusual. It bothers him that the media often describes young people as lazy, self-centered and materialistic. So he sees his trip as a chance to make a statement, too. “About 55 percent of teens do volunteer work, higher than the rate of adults,” he said, according to a 2002 study. “Not everybody knows that.”
Of course, some teens do volunteer work because it looks impressive on their college applications. Lyons said he mentioned his trip on his submissions. But charity work is a habit with him. Even before the cross country trip, he was volunteering abut 200 hours a year at various places. He’s made sandwiches for homeless families in Washington D.C.. He’s taught math to fifth-graders in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
He gets some of that drive from his mother, Leslye Lyons, who has been involved in nonprofits for much of her life. She was there when her son “read” to the preschoolers－a memory of hers “that will never go away.”
63. What did Russell Lyons think of his first volunteering?
A. Creative. B. Persuasive. C. Impressive. D. Imaginative.
64. The third paragraph is meant to ______.
A. indicate Russell Lyons is working as a volunteer
B. introduce some tourist attractions across America
C. appeal to volunteers to offer help to those in need
D. show volunteers are needed in all parts of America
65. According to Paragraph 4, Russell Lyons is against the idea that ______.
A. what he has done is common B. most teens do volunteer work
C. young people don’t work hard D. adults prefer to be volunteers
66. Russell Lyons has been doing volunteer work because ______.
A. it is necessary for college applications B. it has become a natural part of his life
C. he likes the feeling of being praised D. he ought to keep his promise to Mom
D
A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding thei
