7、new survey found. In fact, most people who develop cancer have no family history of cancer, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) (美国妇产科医师学会),which sponsored the survey. “Too many women are dying from cancer,“ Dr. Douglas W. Laube, ACOG“s immediate past presiden
8、t, said during a Friday teleconference. “An estimated 200,070 women will die in the U.S. this year, and over 600,078 women will be diagnosed with cancer. The results of this survey found a worrisome (令人担忧的) gap in women“s knowledge about cancer.“ Based on the findings, ACOG is increasing its efforts
9、 to educate women about cancer and the need for regular screening tests. Although the survey found many misconceptions (错误观念) about cancer, 76 percent of women surveyed did say they feel knowledgeable about how they can reduce their risk of the disease. However, only 52 percent said they were doing
10、enough to reduce that risk. And 10 percent said they hadn“t done anything in the past years to lower their risk. 17 percent said they wouldn“t change their lifestyles, even if changes would lower their cancer risk. Many women said they were afraid to undergo screening out of fear of finding cancer.
11、Twenty percent said they didn“t want to know if they had cancer. In response to these findings, ACOG will launch on Oct. 29 a new websiteProtect about one-third of all cancers in the U.S. are caused by tobacco use. If current trends continue, WHO estimates, by 2025 tobacco will kill 10 million peopl

15、:阅读理解(总题数:0,分数:0.00)五、第一篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)The Beginning of American LiteratureAmerica has always been a land of beginnings. After Europeans “discovered“ America in the fifteenth century, the mysterious New World became for many people a genuine hope of a new life, an escape from poverty and persecuti
16、on, a chance to start again. We can say that, as a nation, America begins with that hope. When, however, does American literature begin? American literature begins with American experiences. Long before the first colonists arrived, before Christopher Columbus, before the Northmen who “found“ America
17、 about the year 1000, native Americans lived here. Each tribe“s literature was tightly woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of linking with the land. Another kind of experience, one filled with fear and excitement, found its expression in the reports
18、 that Columbus and other explorers sent home in Spain, French and English. In addition, the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilderness tell unforgettable tales of hard and sometimes heartbreaking experiences of those early years. Experience, then, is the key to early Ame
19、rican literature. The New World provided a great variety of experiences, and these experiences demanded a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers. These writers included John Smith, who spent only two-and-a-haft year on the American continent. They included Jon
20、athan Edwards and William Byrd, who thought of themselves as British subjects, never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own. American Indians, explorers, Puritan ministers, frontier wives, plantation ownersthey are all the creators of the fi
21、rst American literature.(分数:15.00)(1).What does “that hope“ in the first paragraph refer to?(分数:3.00)A.The hope that America would be discovered.B.The hope to start a new life.C.The hope to see the mysteries of the New World.D.The hope to find poverty here.(2).When did American literature begin?(分数:
22、3.00)A.Before the American natives lived there.B.When Columbus and other explorers sent reports back home.C.When the Northmen found America in about 1000.D.Long before the year 1000.(3).What can we learn from the literature of the tribes of the native Americans?(分数:3.00)A.About the everyday life of
23、the native Americans.B.About the arrival of Columbus.C.About the experience of the first European settlers.D.About the experience of those who died in the New England wilderness.(4).The main purpose of the last paragraph is to tell the readers that _.(分数:3.00)A.in the early days most American writer
24、s were from Great BritainB.people with rich life experience became writersC.there were many writers in the early days of American historyD.early-day experience provided the foundation for American literature(5).According to the last paragraph, which of the following statements is true about American

26、、第二篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)Medical JournalsMedical journals are publications that report medical information to physicians and other health professionals. In the past, these journals were available only in print. With the development of electronic publishing, many medical journals now have web sites on the
27、 Internet, and some journals are published only online. A few medical journals, like the Journal of the American Medical Association, are considered general medical journals because they cover many fields of medicine. Most medical journals are specialty journals that focus on a particular area of me
28、dicine. Medical journals publish many types of articles. Research articles report the results of research studies on a range of topics varying from the basic mechanisms of diseases to clinical trials that compare outcomes of different treatments. Review articles summarize and analyze the information
29、 available on a specific topic based on a careful search of the medical literature. Because the results of individual research studies can be affected by many factors, combining results from different studies on the same topic can be helpful in reaching conclusions about the scientific evidence for
30、preventing, diagnosing or treating a particular disease. Case conferences and case reports may be published in medical journals to educate physicians about particular illnesses and how to treat them. Editorials in medical journals are short essays that express the views of the authors, often regardi
31、ng a research or review article published in the same issue. Editorials provide a perspective on how the current article fits with other information on the same topic. Letters to the editor provide a way for readers of the medical journal to express comments, questions or criticisms about articles p

35、ment七、第三篇(总题数:1,分数:15.00)Generation GapA few years ago, it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap, a division between young people and their elders. Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience, while children complained that their parents did not understand
36、them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society. One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to cho
37、ose their own life styles. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and approve of, and often to continue the family occupation. In our society, young people often travel great distances
38、 for their education, most out of the family home at an early age, marry or live or choose occupations different from those of their parents. In our upwardly mobile society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the thi
39、ngs that they were unable to do. Often, however, the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them. Often they discover that they have very little in common with each other. Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause
40、 of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, elderly people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become obsolete overnight. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No do
41、ubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature of American life for some time to come. Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society, and in the rapid pace at which society changes.(分数:15.00)(1).The main idea of the first paragraph is that _.(分数:3.00)A.the generation
42、gap suddenly appearedB.the generation gap is a feature of American lifeC.how people can bridge the generation gapD.many critics argue over the nature of the generation gap(2).The word “around“ in Paragraph 1 means _.(分数:3.00)A.on all sidesB.in every directionC.nearD.in existence(3).Which one is NOT
43、the cause of the generation gap?(分数:3.00)A.Young people like to choose their own life styles.B.American society is changing very fast.C.Parents place high hopes on their children.D.Modern education makes them think differently.(4).In American society, young people often _.(分数:3.00)A.rely on their pa
44、rents to make a livingB.stay with their parents in order to get an opportunity for higher educationC.seek the best advice from their parentsD.have very little in common with their parents(5).Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?(分数:3.00)A.Parents should be more tolerabl
45、e towards their children.B.The young generation should value the older generation for their wisdom.C.The generation gap is partly created by the older generation.D.The generation gap should be avoidable in American society.八、第 5部分:补全短文(总题数:1,分数:10.00)Living Alone Is JoyfulMore and more Americans are
46、 living alone. Some live alone because of divorce or the death of a partner. 1 According to a recent U.S. census (人口普查), 25 percent of all households in the U.S. are made up of just one person. This is a dramatic change from the extended families of just a couple of generations ago. The typical pers
47、on living alone is neither old nor lonely. 2 The majority of these people have chosen to live alone. They are responding to decreasing social pressure to get married and have a family. It“s now socially acceptable, even fashionable, to live alone. As people get better jobs and become financially ind
48、ependent, it becomes possible for them to maintain a one-person household. 3 However, people who do get married are marrying at a later age and divorcing more often. The number one reason given by most people for living alone is that they simply enjoy doing what they want when they want to do it. “L
49、iving alone is a luxury,“ says Nina Hagiwara, 33. “Once you do it, you can“t ever go back to living with others,“ David C“ Debaca, 46, agrees. 4 Children think that being grown up means being able to do exactly as they please. 5 The chance to discover whether that freedom is as wonderful as it sounds is a chance more and more Americans are taking. A. There“s more pressure to get married nowadays. B. The growing number of women with good jobs has done much to increase the number of people living alone. C. However, even more people are living alone because th
