参考答案和解析
推理判断题。录音首句提到“…that starting July 1 for the very first time, medicare will cover tests and education for Americans with diabetes”，表明从七月一日起，美国糖尿病患者的检查和教育首次被纳入医疗保险之中。可推断出，在此之前，美国医疗保保险不包括对糖尿病患者的检查和教育。因此选项A表达内容与录音原文相符。
【录音原文】
Today, I’m pleased to announce that starting on July 1 for the very first time, medicare will cover tests and education for Americans with diabetes. With this announcement today, the 20 percent of older Americans with diabetes will be able to take preventive steps to help them and their families avoid the pain and loss that can come when this disease is undetected and untreated.

第3题：
Years ago,a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more,but enjoying it less．That describes the way many of us live today．We are doing more,but enjoying it less．And when that doesn't work,we get the problem．In our extremely hurried search for satisfaction,we try stuffing still more into our days,never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach.
The truth is simple;so simple it is hard to believe．Satisfaction lies with less,not with more．Yet,we pursue the myth that this thing,or that activity,will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek.
Arthur Lindman,in his very effective book,"The Harried Leisure Class,"described the uselessness of pursuing more．His research focused on what people did with their leisure time．He found that as income rose,people bought more things to occupy their leisure time．But,ironically,the more things they bought,the less they valued any one of them．Carried to an extreme,he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety．That was more than twenty years ago,and his prediction seems more accurate every year.
Lindman of course,is not the first to discover this．The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago．It is better,he wrote,to have less,but enjoy it more.
If you would like to enjoy life more,I challenge you to experiment with me．How could you simplify your life?What could you drop?What could you do without?What could you stop pursuing?What few things could you concentrate on?
The more I learn,the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things．The more I give up,the more I seem to gain．But words will never convince you．You must try it for yourself．
The best title for the passage is__.A.Simplify Your Life
B.Enjoy Your Life
C.Smoking Less
D.Satisfaction答案：A解析：文章通过抽烟越多享受越少为引子点明主题：获得的越多，并不意味着就越满足。又以两位作者的书为观点支持，说明要放弃一些东西，使我们的生活简单一些，才能获得真正的满足。 -

What Is Insulin-dependent Diabetes?
When you eat,your body takes the sugar from food and turns it into fuel.______(46)Your body uses glucose for energy,so it can do everything from breathing air to playing a video game.But glucose can't be used by the body on its own-it needs a hormone called insulin to bring it into the cells of the body.
Most people get the insulin they need from the pancreas,a large organ near the stomach?The pancreas makes insulin;insulin brings glucose into the cells;and the body gets the energy it needs.When a person has insulin一dependent diabetes,it's because the pancreas is not making insulin.So someone could be eating lots of food and getting all the glucose he needs,but without insulin,there is no way for the body to use the glucose for energy.______(47)
You may have heard older people talk about having diabetes,maybe people of your grandparents'age.Usually,this is a different kind of diabetes called non一insulin一dependent diabetes.It can also be called Type 2 diabetes,or adult-onset diabetes.______(48)
When a kid is diagnosed with juvenile(insulin-dependent)diabetes,he will have that type of diabetes for his whole life.It won't ever change to non-insulin-dependent diabetes when he gets older.
Scientists now think that a person who has juvenile diabetes was born with a certain gene or genes that made the person more likely to get the illness.______(49)
Many scientists believe that along with having certain genes,something else outside the person's body, like a viral infection,is necessary to set the diabetes in motion by affecting the cells in the pancreas that make insulin.
But the person must have the gene(or genes)for diabetes to start' out with一this means you can't get diabetes just from catching a flu,virus,or cold.And this type of diabetes isn't caused by eating too many sugary foods,either.Diabetes can take a long time to develop in a person's body-sometimes months or years?Another important thing to remember is that diabetes is not contagious.______(50)______(47)
A:Genes are something that you inherit from your parents,and they are in your body even before you're born.
B:This sugar-fuel is called glucose?
C:It may be possible to beat insulin resistance through lifestyle changes.
D:You can't catch diabetes from people who have it,no matter how close you sit to them or if you kiss them.
E:The glucose can't get into the cells of the body without insulin.
F:When a person has this kind of diabetes,the pancreas usually can still make insulin,but the person's body needs more than the pancreas can make?答案：E解析：文章第一句所讲的内容是当人进食时，身体会从食物中摄取糖分，并把它转化为燃料。B项是对这种燃料的解释，且空白处后的句子中又出现了B项中的名词glucose。故此处选B。
此空处之前的内容提到，如果一个人患上了胰岛素依赖型糖尿病，虽然其通过大量进食获取了所需的全部葡萄糖，但如果没有胰岛素的参与，身体就不能通过利用这些葡萄糖来获得能量。选项E的内容和此处为顺承关系，故选E。
上一段指出胰岛素依赖型糖尿病患者的胰腺无法分泌胰岛素，本段此空处之前的内容提到了非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病，并指出它不同于胰岛素依赖型糖尿病。故此空处应详细介绍此种类型的糖尿病。F项符合文意。
此空处之前的内容是患有青少年糖尿病的人带有先天性的易患此病的基因。A项介绍基因的概念，比较各个选项，可知本题选A。
此空处之前陈述的内容是糖尿病不具有传染性。D项的内容和此处是承接关系，进一步说明其不具有传染性。故本题选D。 -

第10题：
单选题Which of the following is true about the Internet according to the passage?AAmericans were more in contact before the advent of the Internet.
BThe Internet is weakening the tie of social networks.
CIf you use the internet, you are more likely to get help from network members.
DInternet users are more likely to receive help from non-users.
正确答案： B解析：
录音中最后一句提到“Internet users are more likely than non-users to receive help from network members.”(网络用户比非网络用户更有可能获得来自网络成员的帮助)，由此可知如果你使用网络，你更有可能得到网络成员的帮助，所以选C。
【录音原文】
As the size of a person’s social network increases, it becomes more difficult for people to contact a large percentage of network members. The percentage of one’s social network contacted declines as network size grows. This pattern holds true for almost all forms of contact analyzed in the Social Ties survey. The one exception is email.
As the size of people’s social network increases, the percentage of one’s social network contacted weekly by email does not decline, but remains about the same at about 20% of their ties. Several qualities of email help explain this finding. Email enables people to maintain more relationships easily because it is convenient as a communication tool and it gives the control in managing communication. The nature of email is such that people could carry on conversations at different times and at their leisure. This makes it possible for a quick note to an associate, whether it is about important news or seeking advice on an important decision. Moreover, it is almost as easy to email a message to many people as it is to email to only one...
Contrary to fears that email would reduce other forms of contact, there is “media multiplexity”: that is, the more contact by email, the more in-person and phone contact. Therefore, Americans are probably more in contact with members of their communities and social networks than before the advent of the Internet. And Internet users are more likely than non-users to receive help from network members. -

第二篇
US Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer
Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of
cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday.
In a special report on cancer and blacks, the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer
later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
This could be because of unequal access to medical care,because blacks are more likely to have other
diseases like diabetes as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology of the cancer itself,the report added.
"In general,African Americans have］ess likelihood of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for
all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said.
"In describing cancer statistics for African Americans,this report recognizes that socioeconomic dispari-
ties and unequal access to medical care may underlie many of the differences associated with race."
The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier,when cancer is more
treatable,and it said more research was needed to see if biological differences play a role.Public policy and education efforts may help to do away with________.
A:death rates
B:various cancers
C:unfair social differences
D:biological differences答案：C解析：由文章第一段的内容可知，美国黑人的死亡率高于美国的白人。该段只是将美国黑人与美国白人的癌症死亡率进行了比较。故选B。
前三项原因在文章第三段中都被提到了，而早期诊断是有助于降低癌症死亡率的。
利用题干中“检测”作为线索，由文章第六段的内容可以得知，癌症越早发现越有利于治疗。
文章第七段提到，公共政策和教育有助于消除不平等的社会差异。
利用题干中的时间作线索，由文章的倒数第三段的内容可知，从1992年以来，美国黑人的癌症死亡率下降了。 -

Method for College Students to Cover Tuition Fees and Other Living Costs In China, college students should pay for the tuition fees themselves. However, most students have no jobs and the most common way to cover tuition fees is to turn to parents for help. There are also some students who find jobs in the summer before they go to college. In my opinion, the best way is to find part-time jobs.
On the one hand, they are in school all the time, from primary school to high school. They never get in touch with society and need social experience. So, during college time, they can take the opportunity of doing part-time jobs to accelerate experience.
On the other hand, college students can earn money to support themselves. Some students are able to earn their tuition fees and some may not. Even though the money they earn is not enough for the tuition fees, it can cover their living costs.
All in all, part-time job not only can add social experience but also can support college students their everyday life and even tuition fees. It is the best way for them because they can benefit much from it.解析： 暂无解析 -
