25、ingle bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.Passage OnePeople are living longer than ever, but for some reason, women are living longer than men. A baby boy born in the United States in 2003 can expects to live to be about 73, a baby girl, about 79. this is indeed a wid
26、e gap, and no one really knows why it exists. The greater longevity （长寿）of women, however, has been known for centuries. It was, for example, described in the seventeenth century. However, the difference was smaller then the gap is growing.A number of reasons have been proposed to accounts for the d
27、ifferences. The gap is greatest in industrialized societies, so it has been suggested that women are less susceptible to work strains that may raise the risk of heart disease and alcoholism. Sociologists also tell us that women are encouraged to be less adventurous than men (and this may be why they
28、 are more careful drivers, involved in fewer accidents).Even smoking has been implicated in the age discrepancy. It was once suggested that working women are more likely to smoke and as more women entered the work force, the age gap would begin to close, because smoking is related to earlier deaths.
29、 Now, however, we see more women smoking and they still tend to live longer although their lung cancer rate is climbing sharply.One puzzling aspect of the problem is that women do not appear to be as healthy as men. That is, they report far more illnesses. But when a man reports an illness, it is mo
30、re likely to be serious.Some researchers have suggested that men may die early because their health is more strongly related to their emotions. For example, men tend to die sooner after losing a spouse than women do. Men even seem to be more weakened by loss of a job. (Both of these are linked with
31、a marked decrease in the effectiveness of the immune system.) Among men, death follows retirement with an alarming promptness.Perhaps we are searching for the answers too close to the surface of the problem. Perhaps the answers lie deeper in our biological heritage. After all, the phenomenon is not
32、isolated to humans. Females have the edge among virtually all mammalian (哺乳动物的) species, in that they generally live longer. Furthermore, in many of these species the differences begin at the moment of conception; there are more male miscarriages（流产）. In human, after birth, more baby boys than baby
33、girls die.31. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A Mens lifespan remains almost unchanged.B Researchers have found the cause of the age gap/C The age gap was noticed only recently.D The more advanced a society, the greater the age gap.32. As is suggested in Paragraph 2, the two factors
34、relevant to womens longer lifespan are _.A diseases and road accidentsB industrialization and work strainsC their endurance of work strains and reluctance for adventure D their immunity to heart disease and refusal of alcohol33. According to Paragraph3, which of the following statements is true?A Th
35、e great number of male smokers contributes to the age gap.B The growing number of smoking women will narrow the age gap.C Smoking does not seem to affect womens longevity. D Female workers are more likely to smoke than make workers.34. Which of the following phenomena makes researchers puzzled?A Thr
36、ough more liable to illnesses, women still live longer.B Mens health is more closely related to their emotionsC Men show worse symptoms than women when they fall ill.D Quite a number of men die soon after their retirement.35. The word” edge” in Paragraph 6 means “_”.A marginB sideC quality D advanta
37、ge36. What is the main idea of the passage?A That women are healthier than men well explains their longevity. B The greater longevity of women remains a mystery.C People are living longer as a result of industrialization.D Women are less emotionally affected by difficulties in life.Passage TwoUntil
38、last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood commuted to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the schools busing company redrew its route map, eliminating Nias bus altogether. Now Nia and her neighbo
39、rs travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus”a group of kids, supervised by an adult or two, who make the walk together. Like the rest of us, school districts are feeling pinched by rising fuel costsand finding new way to adapt. The price of diesel fuel has gone up 34 percent in the p
40、ast two years. For the typical American school district, bus bills total 5 percent of the budget. As administrators look to trim, busing is an inviting target, since it doesnt affect classroom instruction (or test scores). More than one third of American school administrators have eliminated bus sto
41、ps or routes in order to stay within budget.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves: according to a 1969 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2001. modern parents have been unwilli
42、ng to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have diminished.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks. B
43、using companies instruct drivers to eliminate extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling. They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient routes, which arent always the shortest ones.There could be downsides, however, to the busing cutbacks. If every f
44、ormerly bused student begins walking to school, its an environmental winbut if too many of their parents decide to drive then instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks: A 2002 report concluded students are 13 time
45、s safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes, particularly when the route contains a really big hill.37. The “walking school bus” _.A aims to keep children fit B
46、does not consume fuelC seldom causes traffic jamsD is popular with school kids38. In America the responsibility for busing kids to school lies with _.A school districts B individual schoolsC teacherD parents39.

47、on the wayB changes in the routeC safety of their children D kids physical strength40. To save money, some schools choose to _.A shorten the school week B take the shortest routesC give drives better trainingD use fuel efficient buses41.
