For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice_Life expectancy is rising in much o
21、f the world. But doctors are seeing another trend that is disturbing. Some people are choosing lifestyles that result in early death. A new US study looks at four lifestyle choices that prevent people from staying healthy and living longer. It used to be rare for people to live to 100. But babies bo
22、rn in the US today can hope to live that long. In the 20th century, life expectancy in wealthy nations increased by as much as 30 years. Average life expectancy for Americans is 78. But doctors are seeing people adopt bad habits that can cut their life short, such as eating too much or eating too mu
23、ch junk food, exercising too little and smoking cigarettes. These habits increase the risk for cancer, heart disease and stroke. Researchers at Harvard University and the University of Washington wanted to find out how many years are lost with these lifestyle choices. “What we found was that high bl
24、ood pressure, smoking, overweight account for five years of loss of life expectancy in men and about four years in women at the national level,“ Goodarz Danaei, one of the principal researchers said. The researchers broke down the data into race, income and location, and they found even greater diff
25、erences. Middle-income whites have the best blood pressure. But Asian-Americans have fewer bad habits and the best health. “They are not getting heart disease because of low blood pressure. They are not getting cancer because they have low risk factors for cancer, including smoking,“ Danaei said.（分数

29、tter healthC.better blood pressureD.lower risk of cancer27.Task 2Directions：This task is the same as Task 1The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45_Researchers say people traveling in traffic are three times more likely to suffer a heart attack. They say the risk of a hear
30、t attack is greatest within an hour of being in traffic. The findings are based on a German study of almost seven hundred people who suffered heart attacks. The patients described their activities during the four days before their heart attack. Researchers found that those who had been in traffic we
31、re three times more likely to have a heart attack within one hour, compared to those who had not been in traffic. Most of those in the study had been traveling by car. But some had been on bicycles and others were on buses. Research shows that people in cars and buses are exposed to ten times the am
32、ount of pollutants as people walking on the street. That is largely because they breathe in the particles and gases released from the vehicles in front of them. Over time, these small particles speed the buildup of a sticky substance in the blood. This can cause blockages to form in the arteries aro
33、und the heart and lead to a heart attack. Other studies have also linked heart trouble to stress, similar to the kind that people face while driving in heavy traffic. But the researchers of the latest study say they do not know whether the increased heart attack risk is the result of stress or pollu
34、tion. They suggest it may be a combination of stress, noise and pollution. Experts say the research shows the need for cleaner vehicles and better city planning to lower the risk of the heart attack.（分数：10.00）(1).What is found about the participants in the German study?（分数：2.00）A.Most of them died o
35、f heart attacks soon.B.They recovered from heart attacks soon.C.They had a higher risk of heart attacks.D.They had a lower risk of heart attacks.(2).According to the study, which of the following is the safest for people who are suffering heart attacks?（分数：2.00）A.Going on foot.B.Driving a car.C.Taki

37、B.Noise.C.Pollution.D.Traffic accidents.(5).What suggestion do experts give on lowering the risk of heart attacks?（分数：2.00）A.Reducing traffic as much as possible.B.Living away from noise.C.keeping vehicles cleaner.D.Planting more trees in the city.28.Task 3Directions：The following is a passageAfter
