2．The main cause of death and disability in the US Stroke（中風(fēng)）is the main cause of death and disability in the United States．Every 45seconds，someone in America has a stroke．（36）DIt is the nation's third leading cause of death，ranking behind diseases of the heart and all forms of cancer．The following is something more about stroke．
Definition and description of a stroke
Stroke is a type of cardiovascular disease．It affects the arteries（動(dòng)脈） leading to and within the brain．A stroke occurs when a blood vessel（血管） that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts．（37）E．So stroke forms．
（38）A
The American Stroke Association has identified several factors （因素） that increase the risk of stroke．The more risk factors a person has，the greater the chance that he or she will have a stroke．Some of these you can't control，such as increasing age，family health history，race，and previous stroke．（39）F．Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment can be improved with a health care provider's help．
Breakthroughs in treatment
A stroke can happen to anyone at any moment．In fact，about 600，000people have strokes every year．（40）CHowever，recent breakthroughs have led to new treatments．For the treatments to work，the person must get to a hospital immediately．

A．Risk factors of a stroke．
B．Warning signs of a stroke．
C．For many years，there was no hope for those suffering a stroke．
D．Every 3.1minutes，someone dies of one．
E．When that happens，part of the brain cannot get the blood and oxygen it needs．
F．But you can change or treat other risk factors to lower your risk．
G．The more common kind of stroke is caused by a blood clot that blocks a blood vessel in the brain．

分析 文章講述了在美國(guó)中風(fēng)已經(jīng)成為主要的死亡病之一，并且分析了得病的一些因素，好在現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)在治療上有重大突破．

解答 DEAFC
36．D 上下文語境．根據(jù)前句Every 45seconds，someone in America has a stroke每45秒，就有人得了中風(fēng)，所以下面 應(yīng)該提到每3.1分鐘就有人死于中風(fēng)，故D符合語境．
37．E 上下文語境．A stroke occurs when a blood vessel（血管） that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts這句話告訴我們當(dāng)用來輸送氧氣和營(yíng)養(yǎng)物質(zhì)到大腦的血管被阻塞，帶來的后果大腦供血或者供氧不足就會(huì)發(fā)生中風(fēng)，即選項(xiàng)E．
38．A 概括總結(jié)．根據(jù)該段The American Stroke Association has identified several factors （因素） that increase the risk of stroke．得知，美國(guó)中風(fēng)協(xié)會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些導(dǎo)致中風(fēng)的因素，故上面小標(biāo)題應(yīng)該總說中風(fēng)的原因．故答案選A．
39．F 上下文語境．前面說Some of these you can't control有些因素是控制不了的，如年齡大以及家族遺傳，但你可以減少得病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，故選F．
40．C  上下文語境．However，recent breakthroughs have led to new treatments特別是however轉(zhuǎn)折表明前面說很多年中風(fēng)一直沒有得到很好的治療，現(xiàn)在 已經(jīng)有很大的突破，故選C．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一篇選句填空，題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題，做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案．推理判斷也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確的答案．

12．No one would much like the idea of eating 61pounds of tomatoes a day．But if their goodness was put into an easy-to-swallow pill that you were told might prevent strokes（中風(fēng)） and heart attacks you would probably be putting in an order tomorrow．
Researchers believe they may have come up with just that after trials．The daily pill contains a chemical called lycopene which makes tomatoes red and is known to break down fat in the vessels（血管）．A Cambridge University study found taking the pills improved blood flow and the ining of vessels in patients with pre-existing heart conditions．It also increased the flexibility（靈活性） of their vessels by 50percent．The scientists believe it could limit the damage caused by heart disease-responsible for 180，000deaths a year-and help cut the 49，000deaths a year from strokes．They also hope it could benefit those with arthritis（關(guān)節(jié)炎），diabetes（糖尿病） and even slow the progress of cancer．
Each pill is equal to eating around 61pounds of ripe tomatoes．Studies have shown eating a Mediterranean-style diet rich in tomatoes fish，vegetables，nuts and olive oil can significantly reduce cholesterol（膽固醇） and help prevent cardiovascular disease．
Preliminary results from a to-month trial，in which the pill was given to 36heart disease patients and 36healthy volunteers with an average age of 67，were presented at a meeting of the American Heart Association．It was shown to improve the function of the endothelium-the layer of cells lining blood vessels．It also improved their sensitivity to nitric oxide，the gas which causes the enlargement of the vessels in response to exercise．
Ian Wilkinson，head of Cambridge University's clinical trials unit，said"These results are potentially very significant and it meets the goal，but we need more trials to see if they translate into fewer heart attacks and strokes．"
Further studies are planned，with researchers hoping it could offer a choice for heart disease sufferers who can not take the cholesterol-lowing drugs．
Mike Knapton，head of the British Heart Foundation，said，"Although this showed lycopene improved blood flow in people with heart disease，that's a long way from demonstrating that taking it could improve outcomes for people with heart disease．The best way to get the benefits of a good diet is to eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables．"
32．What can we infer from Paragraph 1？B
A．We can eat too much tomato food．
B．Tomatoes are helpful to strokes and heart attacks．
C．Tomatoes will lose healthy elements were put into pills．
D．We had better not eat tomatoes．
33．We can learn from the passage that the pillsA．
A．a(chǎn)re at the experiment stage
B．can cure all the disease
C．a(chǎn)re widely used among patients
D．cost patients so little money
34．Who were the volunteers by taking part in the trial？D
A．Children．
B．Youth．
C．Working people．
D．Old healthy people．
35．What was Ian Wilkinson's opinion on the trial？C
A．Disappointing．
B．Surprising．
C．Satisfactory．
D．Terrible．
