For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the

26、 ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 It is said that in England death is pressing, in Canada inevitable and in California optional. Small wonder. Americans life expectancy has nearly doubled over the past century. Failing hips can be replaced, clinical depression controlled, catar

27、acts removed in a 30-minute surgical procedure. Such advances offer the aging population a quality of life that was unimaginable when I entered medicine 50 years ago. But not even a great health-care system can cure death and our failure to confront that reality now threatens this greatness of ours.

28、 Death is normal; we are genetically programmed to disintegrate and perish, even under ideal conditions. We all understand that at some level, yet as medical consumers we treat death as a problem to be solved. Shielded by third-party payers from the cost of our care we demand everything that can pos

29、sibly be done for us, even if its useless. The most obvious example is late-stage cancer care. Physicians frustrated by their inability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patient too often offer aggressive treatment far beyond what is scientifically justified. In 1950, the U. S. spe

30、nt $ 12. 7 billion on health care. In 2002, the cost will be $ 1,540 billion. Anyone can see this trend is unsustainable. Yet few seem willing to try to reverse it. Some scholars conclude that a government with finite resources should simply stop paying for medical care that sustains life beyond a c

31、ertain age say 83 or so. Former Colorado governor Richard Lamm has been quoted as saying that the old and infirm “have a duty to die and get out of the way“ so that younger, healthier people can realize their potential. I would not go that far. Energetic people now routinely work through their 60s a

32、nd beyond, and remain dazzlingly productive. At 78 Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone jokingly claims to be 53. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day OConnor is in her 70s, and former surgeon general C. Everett Koop chairs an Internet start-up in his 80s. These leaders are living proof that prevention works

33、 and that we can manage the health problems that come naturally with age. As a mere 68-year-old, I wish to age as productively as they have. Yet there are limits to what a society can spend in this pursuit. As a physician, I know the most costly and dramatic measures may be ineffective and painful.

34、I also know that people in Japan and Sweden, countries that spend far less on medical care, have achieved longer, healthier lives than we have. As a nation we may be overfunding the quest for unlikely cures while under-funding research on humbler therapies that could improve peoples lives. 31 What i

35、s implied in the first sentence? （ A） Americans are better prepared for death than other people. （ B） Americans enjoy a higher life quality than ever before. （ C） Americans are over-confident of their medical technology. （ D） Americans take a vain pride in their long life expectancy. 32 The author u

36、ses the example of cancer patients to show that_. （ A） medical resources are often wasted （ B） doctors are helpless against fatal diseases （ C） some treatment are too aggressive （ D） medical costs are becoming unaffordable 33 The authors attitude toward Richard Lamms remark is one of_. （ A） strong d

37、isapproval （ B） reserved consent （ C） slight contempt （ D） enthusiastic support 34 In contrast to the U. S. , Japan and Sweden are funding their medical care_. （ A） more flexibly （ B） more extravagantly （ C） more cautiously （ D） more reasonably 35 The text intends to express the idea that_. （ A） med

38、icine will further prolong peoples lives （ B） life beyond a certain limit is not worth living （ C） death should be accepted as a fact of life （ D） excessive demands increase the cost of health care 35 Few people doubt the fundamental importance of mothers in child-rearing, but what do fathers do? Mu

39、ch of what they contribute is simply the result of being a second adult in the home. Bringing up children is demanding, stressful and exhausting. Two adults can support and make up for each others deficiencies and build on each others strengths. Fathers also bring an array of unique qualities. Some

40、are familiar: protector and role model. Teenage boys without fathers are notoriously prone to trouble. The pathway to adulthood for daughters is somewhat easier, but they must still learn from their fathers, in ways they cannot from their mothers, how to relate to men. They learn from their fathers

41、about heterosexual trust, intimacy and difference. They learn to appreciate their own femininity from the one male who is most special in their lives. Most important, through loving and being loved by their fathers, they learn that they are love-worthy. Current research gives much deeper and more su

42、rprising insight into the fathers role in child-rearing. One significantly overlooked dimension of fathering is play. From their childrens birth through adolescence, fathers tend to emphasize play more than caretaking. The fathers style of play isf likely to be both physically stimulating and exciti

43、ng. With older children it involves more teamwork, requiring competitive testing of physical and mental skills. It frequently resembles a teaching relationship: come on, let me show you how. Mothers play more at the childs level. They seem willing to let the child direct play. Kids, at least in the

44、early years, seem to prefer to play with daddy. In one study of 2. 5-year-olds who were given a choice, more than two-thirds chose to play with their father. The way fathers play has effects on everything from the management of emotions to intelligence and academic achievement. It is particularly im

45、portant in promoting self-control. According to one expert, “children who roughhouse with their fathers quickly learn that biting, kicking and other forms of physical violence are not acceptable. “ They learn when to “shut it down. “ At play and in other realms, fathers tend to stress competition, c

46、hallenge, initiative, risk-taking and independence. Mothers, as caretakers, stress emotional security and personal safety. On the playground fathers often try to get the child to swing even higher, while mothers are cautious, worrying about an accident. We know, too, that fathers involvement seems t

47、o be linked to improved verbal and problem-solving skills and higher academic achievement. Several studies found that along with paternal strictness, the amount of time fathers spent reading with them was a strong predictor of their daughters verbal ability. For sons the results have been equally st

48、riking. Studies uncovered a strong relationship between fathers involvement and the mathematical abilities of their sons. Other studies found a relationship between paternal nurturing and boys verbal intelligence. 36 The first paragraph points out that one of the advantages of a family with both par

49、ents is （ A） husband and wife can share housework （ B） two adults are always better than one （ C） the fundamental importance of mothers can be fully recognized （ D） husband and wife can compensate for each others shortcomings 37 According to Paragraph 3, one significant difference between the fathers and mothers role in child-rearing is_. （ A） the style of play encouraged （ B） the amount of t
