peopled biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy,regardless of lifestyle choices.Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday,the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California,Los Angeles(UCLA),led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA,analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.A higher biological age,regardless of actual age,consistently predicts an earlier death,the study says.“You get people who are vegan,sleep 10 hours a day,have a low-stress job,and still end up dying young,”Horvath said in a statement.“We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate.”The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate,which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age.“The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate,”Horvath said,adding that“this is an important milestone to realizing this dream.1、How was the study conducted?ABy collecting and analyzing data BBy interviewing lots of people CBy researching previous studies DBy studying different lifestyles 2、Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because .ABy biological clock is not powerful enough Bthe most definitive evidence has been found Cthey have a higher actual age than others Dthey ages at a relatively faster biological rate 3、According to the study,it can be inferred that .Apeople who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longer Bpeoples lifespan can be predicted by their age Canti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate D5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rat 22(8 分)Nearly one in four Americans made money over the last 12 months by using their personal computers or other devices connected to the Internet.The Pew Research Center,an independent research group in Washington,found that people are using the Internet to find extra work.They go online to sell things such as used books and furniture or they offer to provide services such as babysitting,house cleaning or computer repairs.Pew found that income earned on the Internet can come in many forms.Some said they had jobs that paid a few pennies each to take surveys.In these surveys,people are asked for their opinions of different products or well-known people.About two percent of Americans earned money from ride-sharing companies such as Uber and Lyft.When drivers are ready to pick up passengers,they use their ride-share companys app.The computer program lets them know when passengers are ready to be picked up and how to reach them.Some people make their homes,apartments,or rooms inside their homes,available for money to people visiting their cities.About 60 percent of people say the income they earn is important to them.But just one in five people who sell things online say the income is enough to be important to their lives.Only 16 percent believe doing online work will lead to a meaningful career.But 37 percent say the extra income earned from online jobs helps them make up for shortages in money.The number one reason people gave for taking online jobs was that the work gave them something to do and was fun.What kind of people work online or use online devices to find work?The answer appears to be:mostly people who already have jobs.1、What is the main idea of paragraph 1?AHow to sell used books.BHow to find extra work online.CA new way of making money.DA new research on the Internet.2、How many forms of earning money online are mentioned in paragraph 2?A1.B2.C3.D4.3、How does the author make the point more persuasive?ABy listing numbers.BBy asking questions.CBy telling stories.DBy doing surveys.4、What is implied in the last paragraph?AMany people have found jobs using the Internet.BThose who have jobs enjoy making money online.CThe future of the Internet is questioned.DMore people will lose their job soon.23(8 分)Optimism May Help People Live Longer People who have an optimistic view on life are more likely to live longer,a US study said Wednesday.The study,published in the American Journal of Epidemiology,analyzed data from 2004 to 2012 from 70,000 women enrolled in the Nurses Health Study,a long-running US study tracking womens health via surveys every two years.The researchers looked at participants levels of optimism and other factors that might play a role in how optimism may affect mortality risk,such as race,high blood pressure,diet,and physical activity.It found the most optimistic women,or the top 25%,had a nearly 30 percent lower risk of dying from any of the diseases analyzed in the study compared with the least optimistic women,or the bottom 25%.The most optimistic women had a 16 percent lower risk of dying from cancer;38 percent lower risk of dying from heart disease;39 percent lower risk of dying from stroke;38 percent lower risk of dying from respiratory disease;and 52 percent lower risk of dying from infection.Previous studies have linked optimism with reduced risk of early death from cardiovascular(心脑血管的)problems,but this was the first to find a link between optimism and reduced risk from other major causes.“While most medical and public health efforts today focus on reducing risk factors for diseases,evidence has been mounting that enhancing psychological resilience(弹性,复原力)may also make a difference,”said Eric Kim,research fellow at the Harvard T.H.Chan School of Public Health and co-lead author of the study.“Our new findings suggest that we should make efforts to boost optimism,which has been shown to be associated with healthier behaviors and healthier ways of coping with life challenges.”The study also found that healthy behaviors only partially explain the link between optimism and reduced mortality risk.One other possibility is that higher optimism directly affects our biological systems,Kim said.Co-lead author and postdoctoral research fellow Kaitlin Hagan said optimism can be varied with relatively uncomplicated and low-cost interventions(干预),even things as simple as having people write down and think about the best possible outcomes for various areas of their lives,such as careers or friendships.“Encouraging use of these interventions could be an innovative way to enhance health in the future,”Hagan said.1、According to the recent study,optimism can _.Ahelp women live longer than men Benable people to stay healthy Ccure people of high blood pressure Dmake woman stay young and nice 2、From the recent study,the optimistic women _.Atook the risk of dying from infection Bwere less likely to die from some disease Chad a 39%lower risk of suffering from cancer Dwere less likely to suffer from low emotions 3、The underlined word“mounting”in paragraph 7 might be best placed by _.Aincreasing Bappearing Cdoubling Dshowing 4、Both Kim and Hagan believed that _.Asimple but high-cost interventions should be tried out Bhigher optimism indirectly influences our body Coptimism should be encouraged and developed Doptimism can help people meet all kinds of challenges 24(8 分)Not all of George H.W.Bushs extended family members were invited to his Washington DCmemorial service.Nearly a week after many paid their respects at the Washington National Cathedral,Sharon Bush,who was married to the 41st presidents son Neil from 1980 to 2003,told Page Six that she was allegedly unable to attend the funeral after she was told by her ex-husbands secretary that there were not enough seats.“I was going to take the train down.I wanted to pay my respects.But I paid my respects by raising three wonderful children during a 23-year marriage,”Sharon told the Outlet.Neil and Sharon share three children:son Pierce and daughters Ashley and Lauren Bush Lauren,who gave a reading at the funeral,where the father of three attended with his second wife Maria Andrews,whom he wed in 2004.While the DCmemorial service was taking place,Sharon recalled having lunch with Lady Gagas mother Cynthia Germanotta and publishing heiress Anne Hearst.Though she was snubbed from the funeral,Sharon shared photos on Instagram to honor her former father-in-law.“My girls Lauren and Ashley read scriptures at their grandfathers funeral.I feel so proud of them.May he RIP.”The mother of three captioned a photo of Lauren and Ashley.“May he RIP,”Sharon also posted on Instagram,speaking of their childrens upbringing.Sharon credited herself for raising them to be charitable and public servants.“I taught them everything they know about points of light by taking them to soup kitchens and homeless shelters from the time they were 4 years old.I didnt want them spoiled,”she said,referencing the public service nonprofit Points of Light,for which her ex-husband serves as chairman of the board of directors.“I did this.Neil was never around.He was always traveling,”Sharon added.1、Why was Sharon not invited to George H.W.Bushs funeral?ABecause she did not intend to attend.BBecause she was not Neils current wife.CBecause the cathedral cant hold so many people.DBecause she was busy with her childrens upbringing.2、How did Sharon mourn for the passing away of her former father-in-law?AThrough media interviews.BBy posting on a social medium.CBy raising three grandchildren.D By looking back on lunching with him.3、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?ASharons marriage lasted 30 years.BNeil and Sharon share three daughters.CPoints of Light is a profit-making company.DSharons girls attended their grandfathers funeral.4、What is Sharons attitude towards Neils performance of bringing up children?AUnconcerned.BAppreciative.CDissatisfied.DPositive.25(10 分)When I met a friend recently,I asked him how work was.“Oh,not that busy,Im just coasting,”he said.Hes not alone.According to a recent poll,one third of the 3,000 people surveyed said they were“coasting”at work.This may come as a surprise in an age when so many people spend so much time complaining about how busy they are.But most of this talk about busyness is nonsense.According to a study by researchers at Oxford University,we do not,in fact,spend more time working than we have in the past.On some measures,the amount we work has gone down.Instead,many people just have jobs filled with tasks that dont really need to be done.The way we look at coasting has radically changed.In the past,being relaxed and not burdened with too much work within your organisation was a sign of status.Now,being extremely busy shows you are important.If you are not extremely overburdened,then you are seen as a slacker,a lazy person.This does not make sense.Most people are not as busy as they say they are.In fact,most pressing tasks at work are often unrelated to productivity.Many busy people are actually overburdened with telling others how busy they are.Being overly-focused on your job may make you feel important,but its likely to annoy friends,co-workers and your family.Whats more,being super-busy all the time is not good for you.A Cornell University study found that people who are overburdened with work tend to have a worse sense of wellbeing than those who are more relaxed.The researchers also found that being super-busy is bad for your career.Those who reported working very intensely were associated with poorer career outcomes.So,perhaps coasters are not a drag on productivity.Maybe they have worked out that the secret to a productive and healthy life is not being too busy,and certainly not talking continuously about how busy you are.We should remember Bertrand Russells adage:“One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that ones work is terribly important.”1、What can we infer from the findings of the Oxford University study?APeople have a false impression about how busy they are at work.BLess busy employees have a greater likelihood of promotion.COne third of employees dont consider themselves to be busy.DPeople ov
