分析 本文主要講述了坦桑尼亞的女孩及女人們的悲慘命運；文中講到：像坦桑尼亞那樣的一些國家吃水很難，并且收集水的工作都落了在女人們的肩上；女孩們也經(jīng)常把大多數(shù)的時間都花在了收集水上而很少去上學，所以由于學習時間有限，這就使得她們的知識很貧乏；使得她們獲得高薪工作的機會也很少；由于沒什么錢或知識來照看她們的孩子，致使這些孩子們往往很小就死掉了；即使對于那些很幸運并且活下來的女孩來說，她們的生活可能仍然也擺脫不了收集"水"．

解答 61．falls    考查時態(tài)    根據(jù)上下文都使用了一般現(xiàn)在時可知，此處講述的是：像坦桑尼亞那樣的一些國家的目前狀況，故此處也應使用一般現(xiàn)在時；由于本句的主語 the job of collecting water （是單數(shù)形式）；故填falls   
62．kept     考查過去分詞   此處的動詞keep與主語Girls構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系，意為：女孩們經(jīng)常被留在家里收集水而不去上學；故填過去分詞kept
63．Studies    考查名詞的單復數(shù)    分析句意可知，這里的意思應為：研究；由于此處在句中作主語，謂語動詞show 使用了動詞原形；故填名詞的復數(shù)形式Studies
64．than      考查連詞     根據(jù)句意以及句中的more可知，此處表示兩者的比較，即：住在距離干凈的水有15分鐘路程的坦桑尼亞女孩與那些住在距離干凈的水有一個小時路程的女孩們的在校時間的比較；故用連詞than
65．spent    考查過去分詞     此處在句中作后置定語修飾前面的名詞 time，并且與該名詞構(gòu)成了動賓關(guān)系；意為：花在收集水上的時間；故用動詞的過去分詞spent   
66．less       考查形容詞的比較級      根據(jù)句意"花在收集水上的時間越多就意味著學習的時間就越少"可知，此處應與前面的more相對應；故填less
67．With      考查介詞     根據(jù)句意"由于在學校的時間比較少，所以她們獲得高薪工作的機會就很小"可知，此處在句中作原因狀語，符合"with+名詞+介詞短語"的結(jié)構(gòu)；故填With 
68．to marry    考查動詞不定式      此處應使用"特殊疑問詞who+動詞不定式"的結(jié)構(gòu)，意為：嫁給誰；故填to marry   
69．who      考查關(guān)系代詞      根據(jù)句意"她們沒什么錢或知識來照看她們的孩子，這些孩子們往往很小就會死掉"以及空缺處之前的逗號可知，本句是非限定性的定語從句；此處用來修飾先行詞their children，并且在該從句中作主語；故填who
70．lucky    考查形容詞     此處用來說明主語the baby girls 的情況，所以應使用形容詞作表語；故填lucky

點評 本題主要考查了各種語法在短文中的具體運用．做本題時，需要在正確理解短文的前提下，逐句分析句意以及所考查到的語法現(xiàn)象；因此在平時的學習中，應熟練掌握各種語法知識，其中包括詞法，句法，各種時態(tài)語態(tài)以及虛擬語氣等．

10．One day，when I was working as a psychologist in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office．It was David．He kept walking up and down restlessly，his face pale，and his hands shaking slightly．His head teacher had referred him to me．"This boy has lost his family，"he wrote．"He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others，and I'm very worried about him．Can you help？"
I looked at David and showed him to a chair．How could I help him？There are problems psychology doesn't have the answer to，and which no words can describe．Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically．
The first two times we met，David didn't say a word．He sat there，only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me．I suggested we play a game of chess．He nodded．After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon-in complete silence and without looking at me．It's not easy to cheat in chess，but I admit I made sure David won once or twice．
Usually，he arrived earlier than agreed，took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down．It seemed as if he enjoyed my company．But why did he never look at me？
"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with，"I thought．"Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering．"Some months later，when we were playing chess，he looked up at me suddenly．
"It's your turn，"he said．
After that day，David started talking．He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club．He wrote to me a few times，about his biking with some friends，and about his plan to get into university．Now he had really started to live his own life．
Maybe I gave David something．But I also learned that one-without any words-can reach out to another person．All it takes is a hug，a shoulder to cry on，a friendly touch，and an ear that listens．

47．When he first met the author，DavidC．
A．felt a little excited           
B．walked energetically
C．looked a little nervous        
D．showed up with his teacher
48．As a psychologist，the authorA．
A．was ready to listen to David
B．was skeptical about psychology
C．was able to describe David's problem
D．was sure of handling David's problem
49．David enjoyed being with the author because heB．
A．wanted to ask the author for advice
B．needed to share sorrow with the author
C．liked the children's drawings in the office
D．beat the author many times in the chess game
50．What can be inferred about David？A
A．He recovered after months of treatment．
B．He liked biking before he lost his family．
C．He went into university soon after starting to talk．
D．He got friends in school before he met the author．

17．A Myth
It is true that world population is growing，but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems．Believing this will cause us to ignore the real problem and risk long-term damage to our planet．
Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a myth．For one thing，the UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth but provides a low variant  （變量），medium variant，and high variant to factor in various possibilities．In the 2010revision，their high variant suggests that the world population will be almost 16billion in 2100，but the low variant predicts it will peak at 8billion and decrease to just over 6billion by 2100．In most cases，it is the low variant that has come true in the past，suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions．In addition to this，the size of families is actually decreasing．
For another，if the Earth is overpopulated，there needs to be insufficient （短缺） food，water，and space for humans to live．However，Indian economist Raj Krishna estimates that India alone is able to increase crop produce to the point of providing the entire world's food supply．The World Food Programme confirms that there is sufficient food grown to feed the world and there is the same amount of fresh water on the planet now as there was 10，000years ago．So how is it possible that the number of people in the world is affecting our planet？
Therefore，it is not an increase in population but an increase in consumption that is a severe threat．Materialism and overconsumption are facts of life for everybody in the western world，as possessions reflect a person's status in society and people strive to obtain happiness through owning the latest fashionable goods．Not only that，but waste is a common occurrence which has a huge effect on our resources．It is a sad truth that 80% of the world's resources are currently used by just 20% of the world's population．
Our overconsumption must be addressed now to make our lives more sustainable （可持續(xù)的） and avoid continuing the terrible damage to the environment we are causing．The key is education．If we do not work towards this but instead focus on the wrong issue，we may find ourselves living on a planet that can no longer sustain human life．
67．According to the author，what causes our current and future global problems？C
A．The increase in population．
B．Shortage of food and water．
C．The fast growth of material needs．
D．Failure to protect the environment．
68．The underlined word"myth"in Paragraph 2is closest in meaning toB．
A．fact B．misconceptionC．possibilityD．uncertainty
69．The author stresses thatC．
A．people should save food and water
B．economists are making wrong predictions
C．wrong judgment leads to serious consequences
D．measures should be taken to reduce population
70．What is mainly discussed in the passage？A
A．The real cause of global problems．
B．The severe effect of overpopulation．
C．Reasonable use of natural resources．
D．Methods to reduce overconsumption．

20．We know that sugary sodas aren't good for our bodies．Now it turns out that they may not be good for our minds，either．A new study of more than 260，000 people has found a link between sweetened soft-drinks and depression，and diet sodas may be making matters worse．
Americans drink far more sodas than people in other countries-as much as 170 liters per person per year．But the impact of this study isn't limited to the United States．"Sweetened drinks，coffee and tea are commonly consumed worldwide and have important physical consequences．And they may have important mental-health consequences as well，"study author Dr Honglei Chen said in a statement．
The study studied 263，925 people between the ages of 50 and 71．Researchers followed their consumption of drinks like soda，tea coffee，and other soft drinks from 1995 to 1996 and then.10 years later，asked them if they had been diagnosed with depression since the year 2000．More than 11，3000 of them had．
Participants who drank more than four servings of sodas per day were 30 percent more likely to develop depression than participants who did not drink sodas at all．People who stuck with fruit punch（雞尾酒），had a 38 percent higher risk than people who didn't drink sweetened drinks．And all that extra sugar isn't the actual problem．Researchers say that the artificial sweetener aspartame may be to blame．
The study found a link but could not surely determine whether sodas and other sweet soft drinks cause depression．Still，the results"are consistent with a small but growing body of evidence suggesting that artificially sweetened beverages may be linked to poor health outcomes．"
But there's a bright side for those who can't live without their daily sodas．Adults who drank coffee had a 10 percent lower risk of depression compared to people who didn't drink any coffee，according to the study．"Our research suggests that cutting out or down on sweetened diet drinks or replacing them with unsweetened coffee may naturally help lower your depression risk，"said Chen．

41．What has the new study of more than 260，000 people found？C
A．Sugary sodas aren't good for the physical health of old people．
B．Americans have a special tooth for sweet foods．
C．Sweetened soft-drinks may increase the risk of depression．
D．Sweetened soft-drinks have important physical consequences．
42．What do we know about the process of the study？D
A．About twenty-six thousand people participated in it．
B．The oldest participants were below 80 when the study was over．
C．Most of the participants had depression when the study was over．
D．The study lasted more than ten years from the beginning to the end．
43．We infer that the underlined word"aspartame"in Paragraph 4 refers to something thatD
A．can reduce the harm of sweetened drinks
B．is used to reduce the risk of depression
C．is mainly used to make fruit punch
D．is used to make something．sweet
44．It is implied in the passage thatA．
A．more research is needed to confirm the new findings
B．the new findings aren't consistent with any previous findings
C．cutting one's sodas intake will surely reduce one's depression
D．the new findings won't have an impact on people's drinking habits
45．What should you drink in order to reduce the risk of depression？B
A．Sodas．
B：Unsweetened coffee．
C．Sugary coffee．
D．Fruit punch．
