31、A.B.C.D.九、BPART READING (总题数：4，分数：22.00)Americans are more socially isolated than they were 20 years ago, separated by work, commuting and the single life, researchers reported on Friday.Nearly a quarter of people surveyed said they had “zero“ close friends with whom to discuss personal matters. Mor
32、e than 50 percent named two or fewer confidants, the researchers said.“This is a big social change, and it indicates something thats not good for our society,“ said Duke University Professor Lynn Smith-Lovin. Smith-Lovins group used data from a national survey of 1,500 American adults that has been
33、ongoing since 1972.She said it indicated people had a surprising drop in the number of close friends since 1985. At that time, Americans most commonly said they had three close friends whom they had known for a long time, saw often, and with whom they shared a number of interests. They were almost a
34、s likely to name four or five friends, and the relationships often sprang from their neighborhoods or communities.Ties to a close network of friends create a social safety net that is good for society. Research has also linked social support and civic participation to a longer life, Smith-Lovin said
35、.The data also show the social isolation trend mirrors other class divides: Non- whites and people with less education tend to have smaller social networks than white Americans and the highly educated. That means that in daily life, personal emergencies and national disasters such as Hurricane Katri
36、na, those with the fewest resources also have the fewest personal friends to call for advice and assistance.“Its one thing to know someone and exchange e-mails with them. Its another thing to say, Will you give me a ride out of town with all of my possessions and pets? And can I stay with you for a
37、couple or three months?“ Smith-Lovin said.“Worrying about social isolation is not a matter of remembering a warm past. Real things are strongly connected with that,“ added Harvard University Public Policy Professor Robert Putnam. He suggested flexible work schedules would allow Americans to tend bot
38、h personal and professional lives.（分数：6.00）(1).One reason for the social isolation of Americans is_. A. frequent relocation B. frequent traveling C. living alone D. working flexible hours（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The percentage of people with more than two close friends is about _. A. 25% B. 50% C. 60% D

42、 relationships（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.In 1957, a doctor in Singapore noticed that hospitals were treating an unusual number of influenza-like cases. Influenza is sometimes called “flu“ or a “bad cold“. He took samples from the throats of patients and in his hospital was able to find the virus of this influ
43、enza.There are three main types of the influenza virus. The most important of these are type A and B, each of them having several subgroups. With the instruments at the hospital the doctor recognized that the outbreak was due to a virus in group A, but he did not know the subgroup. Then he reported
44、the outbreak to the World Health Organization in Geneva. WHO published the important news alongside reports of a similar outbreak in Hong Kong, where about 15%-20% the population became ill.As soon as the London doctors received the package of throat samples, doctors began the standard tests. They f
45、ound that by reproducing itself with very high speed, the virus had grown more than a million times within two days. Continuing their careful tests, the doctors checked the effect of drugs against all the known subgroups of virus type A. None of them gave any protection. This, then, was something ne
46、w, a new influenza virus, against which the people of the world had no help whatever.Having found the virus they were working with, the two doctors now dropped it into the noses of some specially selected animals, which get influenza much as human beings do. In a short time, the usual signs of the disease appeared. These experiments proved that the new virus was easy to catch, but that it was not a killer. Scientists, like the general public, call it simply Asian flu.The first discovery of the virus, however, was made in China before the disease had appeared in other countri
