Relationships with family, friends, neighbours, even pets, will all do the trick, but the biggest longevity (长寿) boost seems to come from marriage or an equivalent relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows and widowers (鳏夫) were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man's life and two to a woman's. The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self­harm.Even if the odds are stacked against you, marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn't smoke. There's a flip_side,_however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their spouse's death, and caring for a spouse with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the odds favour marriage. In a 30­year study of more than 10，000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects.So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socio­economic factors, health­service provision, emotional support and other more physiological (生理的) mechanisms. For example, social contact can boost development of the brain and immune system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the psychological benefits of a supportive partner.A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100.The ultimate social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says, “People are interconnected, so their health is interconnected.”11William Farr's study and other studies show that _Asocial life provides an effective cure for illnessBbeing sociable helps improve one's quality of lifeCwomen benefit more than men from marriageDmarriage contributes a great deal to longevity12Linda Waite's studies support the idea that _Aolder men should quit smoking to stay healthyBmarriage can help make up for ill healthCthe married are happier than the unmarriedDunmarried people are likely to suffer in later life13It can be inferred from the context that the underlined part “flip side” (Para. 2) refers to _Athe disadvantages of being marriedBthe emotional problems arising from marriageCthe responsibility of taking care of one's familyDthe consequence of a broken marriage14What does the author say about social networks?AThey have effects similar to those of a marriage.BThey help develop people's community spirit.CThey provide timely support for those in need.DThey help relieve people of their life's burdens.15What can be inferred from the last paragraph?AIt's important that we develop a social network when young.BTo stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.CGetting a divorce means risking a reduced life span.DWe should share our social networks with each other.BDu Fu(712770) was one of the greatest poets in the Tang Dynasty. His poetry first came to be recognized at the Tang Dynasty. Readers of many different periods have considered Du Fu to be the greatest poet of the Chinese tradition. Such general agreement can partially be explained by the immense variety of his works, which hold up quite well to different tastes and historical changes in fashion. Like Shakespeare in English tradition, Du Fu's poetry came to be so deeply bound up with the constitution of literary value that generation after generation of poets and critics rediscovered themselves and their interests in some aspect of the poet.Chinese critics from the Song Dynasty referred to Du Fu as the “poet­historian”. Both before and after the An Lushan Revolt, Du Fu witnessed a typical political and social situation: the common people still lived in poverty while the emperor and his top officials enjoyed a foolishly luxurious life. He composed many poems such as Song of the War­chariots, Three Officials，and Three Departures. His poems expressed his dissatisfaction with the government and his great pity for the common people. Du Fu used his poems to comment on current events and historical images. Du Fu became the historian by creating his responses to particular situations.Du Fu was talented. When he was young, he wanted to get a good job in the government. Unfortunately Du Fu was refused several times. It was in his fifties that he began to serve as a minor official in Chang'an (Xi'an). Gongbu was his official title and probably he was in charge of the local industry.Du Fu was not a skilled survivor in government politics. He was dismissed in the form of a transfer to the post of personnel administrator in Huazhou and so left Chang'an. Du Fu soon gave up this minor post in disgust and set off with his family to Qinzhou in the northwest. After a short stay he moved on again and in 759 he arrived in Chengdu. He set up a modest cottage with some money he borrowed from his friend who served as a local governor. In the cottage he had a simple and peaceful life for three years, writing about 240 poems. Mostly inspired by the cottage, the stream nearby and the scenery in Chengdu, these poems give the impression that he was happier in Chengdu than any other time in his life. The poems of this period sound relaxed and happy.Du Fu left Chengdu after 762 and wandered in the southern provinces and eventually died of illness in 770. After his death, the people of Chengdu built a shrine on the site of his garden to honor him, which is known as part of Du Fu Thatched Cottage now.16Why does the author compare Du Fu to Shakespeare?ADu Fu's poetry was written following Shakespeare's style.BDu Fu's poetry referred to the social change critically.CDu Fu and Shakespeare were best friends.DShakespeare read a lot of Du Fu's poems.17Du Fu _ when he was young.Adidn't want to be an officialBwas worried about the educationCwasn't liked by the emperorDwas not offered an opportunity to work in the government18What did Du Fu describe in most of his poems?AThe luxurious life that the emperor and his top officials enjoyed.BHis happy life.CHis responses to particular situations.DHis dissatisfaction with the government and his great pity for the common people.19What did people do after Du Fu died according to the passage?AThey built a shrine to honor him.BThey rebuilt the cottage he had lived into a high building.CThey destroyed his cottage.DThey made a carved statue of him. 20What's the best title of the passage?ADu Futhe most important politician in the Tang DynastyBThe origin of Du Fu Thatched CottageCDu Fuone of the greatest poets in the Tang DynastyDDu Fu was not a skilled survivor in government politics.读写任务阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。When I was in college twenty­five years ago, I spent four summers working as a maid in housekeeping at a grand hotel in downtown Chicago. I did not enter the world of housekeeping enthusiastically. I had been hoping to get a job as an office assistant. When that failed, I had no choice but to work as a maid.It was tiring work, cleaning up to eighteen rooms a day. My poor attitude reflected my disdain(蔑视) for cleaning toilets, changing bed sheets, dusting, and vacuuming eight hours a day for the comfort of total strangers who rarely left a tip. My maid work was just so­so until the day I was assigned to the eighteenth floor.That was Lorena's regular floor. The only time another maid set foot on it was on Lorena's day off. If you left a little rubbish on the floor, a small tissue under the bed, or a pillow uncleaned, Lorena would hunt you down when she returned. She'd end her lecture to me with, “Take some pride in your work.”She did. And so did Rosalie, Helen, Annette, Pearlie, Earline, and all the other career maids with more than one hundred years of experience among them. Their commitment to doing a good job and their belief that their work was a reflection of their character stuck with me throughout my professional career. I learned a lot from them in those four summers. 写作内容1以约30个词概括上文的主要内容。2以约120个词谈谈暑假生活，内容包括：(1)你是否做过暑期工；(2)你打算如何度过高考后的暑假；(3)你认为怎样过暑假才有意义。写作要求1作文中可以使用自己亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子。2作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。评分标准概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，语篇连贯。课时作业(二十七).本文讲述了简在圣诞节给父亲选礼物的故事。因往年送父亲领带不能使父亲高兴，以为这次买烟斗会让他高兴，却被告知父亲终于下定决心戒烟了。1itit在宾语从句中作形式主语，真正的主语是to choose2to please3a表示“一次”愉快的经历。4pushed与stepped并列，也用一般过去时。5where因两句之间没有连接词，必定是填连接词；后句是定语从句，要填的词在从句中作地点状语，故填关系副词where。6choices7onon sale表示“出售”，固定搭配。8him/father根据常识应是使父亲高兴，作宾语用代词。please him/father“使他/父亲高兴”。9atat table表示“在餐桌边吃饭，在进餐”，是习惯搭配。10was informed因Jane与inform是动宾关系，且根据上下文用一般过去时。.A研究表明，交际广泛，婚姻幸福，这些能延长我们的寿命。11D细节理解题。第一段说，好交际能为你增加寿命，最能促进长寿的因素是婚姻，研究表明，婚姻能为男人增加七年的寿命，为女性增加两年，由此判断选D，婚姻有助于长寿，也由此可知C项不对。文章没有说社交能力能有效地治疗疾病，故A项错； 他们的研究没有说社交能提高生活质量，故排除B项。因此本题选D。12B推理判断题。第二段他的研究说，有心脏病的已婚老人比心脏健康的未婚老人长寿，已婚烟民与离婚而且不抽烟的人寿命相同，也就是说，有健康问题或卫生习惯不好的人，其婚姻能在一定程度上弥补这些健康问题，因此选B。A项“老人应该戒烟以保持健康”，C项“已婚者比未婚者更快乐”，D项“未婚者晚年可能有疾病折磨”都不是Linda研究的内容，文章也没有提到。文章说已婚者在丧偶后的日子特别痛苦，这与D项的“未婚者”不同。13A推理判断题。前文说到婚姻的好处，下文说，在丧偶之后的一两年里另一半可能会生病或死亡，因此B项“婚姻引起的情感问题”不全面； 照料有心理障碍的配偶会导致你自己也有同样严重的疾病，因此C项“照料家人的职责”不符合这里的叙述； 这些讲述的都是婚姻的不利因素，因此选A。语境没有提到婚姻破裂的后果，因此D也不正确。14A推理判断题。从文章的叙述可知，社会交往能促进大脑和免疫系统的发展，带来良好的健康状况，文章没有提到社会交往能促进人们的群体意识，可排除B；文章没有提到C项“及时帮助需要帮助的人”； 第三段说互相支持的人们能更好地处理压力，这与D项“减轻人们的生活压力”不一致。15B 推理判断题。最后一段说，如果你想活到100岁，那么拥有终生伴侣、孩子、好朋友都是值得推荐的，这与B项叙述是一致的：A项的时间状语“年轻的时候”不符合文章的叙述； 该段说如果想活到100岁，就应该拥有终生伴侣，没有说离婚就会减少寿命，可排除C; 最后一段没有提到D项内容。B文章向我们介绍了“诗圣”杜甫的坎坷经历以及他在诗歌创作上所取得的成就和后人对他的缅怀。16B推理判断题。 由第一段Like Shakespeare in English tradition, Du Fu's poetry came to be so deeply bound up with the constitution of literary value that generation after generation of poets and critics rediscovered themselves and their interests in some aspect of the poet.一句可知答案。17D细节理解题。从文章第三段When he was young, he wanted to get a good job in the government. Unfortunately Du Fu was refused several times.可知，杜甫年轻时仕途不顺。18D细节理解题。从文章第二段His poems expressed his dissatisfaction with the government and his great pity for the common people.一句可知。19A细节理解题。 从文章最后一句After his death, the people of Chengdu built a shrine on the site of his garden to honor him，可直接得出答案。20C主旨大意题。文章开篇点明了文章的主题Du Fu(712770) was one of the greatest poets in the Tang Dynasty.也就是说这是文章的中心句，文章其他部分都是围绕该句展开的。由此可以判断，C项最能概括全文。.One possible version：When she was a college student, the author spent 4 summers in a hotel doing a housekeeping job, which had great influence on her later professional career.When it comes to my summer vacation, I never did any part­time job. Instead, I had to attend a series of training classes to improve my studies.As a matter of fact, I don't like it when I have to bury myself in books in summer vacations. Therefore, I am determined to do some part­time work after the college entrance examination. With the money I earn, I'll go travelling, which will enrich my life and broaden my horizon.In my opinion, summer vacation should not be spent on books only. As a Chinese saying goes, “Walk ten thousand miles, read ten thousand books.” Apart from gaining knowledge from books, we should also learn from social activities such as doing part­time jobs, going travelling and participating in voluntary work. Only in this way can we develop healthily and adapt ourselves to the society quickly.6
