28、w that womens brains are smaller than mens Normally the womens brain weighs 10% less than mens. Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent（聪明的） than women. Right Wrong. Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite
29、the difference in brain size. Why After years of study, researchers have concluded that its whats inside that matters, not just the size of the brain. The brain is made up of “grey matter” and “white matter”. While men have more of the white matter, the amount（数量） of “thinking” brain is almost the s
30、ame in both men and women. It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women. This means that little girls may learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of different information at the same time
31、. When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, its women who come out on top every time. There are other important differences between two sexes（性别） . As white matter is the key to spatial（空间的） tasks, men know better where thi
32、ngs are in relation to other things. “A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and he knows where to go,” says one researcher. That may explain one of lifes great mysteries: why men refuse to ask for directions and women often need to! The differences begin when
33、fetuses（胎儿） are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children when they are very young. A boy would try to climb a barrier before him or push it down while a girl would ask for help from others. These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require
34、 good spatial skills, while more women speech skills. It may all go back to our ancestors, among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research. 【小题 1】 Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 1 A Grey matter
35、 controls thinking in the brain. B Mens brain is 10% less than womens. C Grey matter plays the same role as white matter. D Men and women have the same amount of white matter. 【小题 2】 What can you infer from Paragraphs 2 and 3 A Men have weaker spatial abilities. B Women do not need to tell direction
36、s. C Women prefer doing many things at a time. D Women do many jobs at a time better than men. 【小题 3】 What can you learn from Paragraph 4 A Our children needed more spatial skills. B Women may have more feelings than men. C Young boys may be stronger than young girls. D More women take up jobs requi
37、ring speech skills. 【小题 4】 The passage is mainly about _. A ways of being more intelligent B differences between men and women C studies on brains between two sexes D studies on white matter and grey matter 答案： 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 A 推理判断。由第一段最后两句可知。尽管男人有更多的后者（白质），但是大脑的思考部分（当然是
38、灰质）的量男女几乎完全相等。 A有很大的迷惑性，但仔细一看文章中说的是平均。 【小题 1】 D 推理判断。可采用排除法。女人在同时完成多项任务上有优势，并不是说女人喜欢同时干许多事情，因此 A 错。 C 、 D明显与文章内容不符。 【小题 1】 D 推理判断。由 more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills（ while more women take up jobs that require speech skills.）一句可知。 【小题 1】 C . 考查文章大
39、意。本文主要讲述科 学家对男女两性大脑的研究，故选 C。 The rising costs of health care have become a problem for many countries in the world. To deal with this problem, it is reported that a big part of the governments health budge（预算） has been used for health education and disease prevention instead of treatment. Actually,
40、many kinds of diseases are preventable in many ways and preventing a disease is usually much cheaper than treating it. For example, people could avoid catching a cold if they dressed warmly when the weather starts getting cold. But many people get sick because they fail to do so, and have to spend m
41、oney seeing a doctor. Daily habits like eating more healthy food would have kept millions of families from becoming bankrupt（破产） if the patients had taken ways for early prevention. For example, keeping a balanced diet（均衡饮食） , such as not consuming too much animal fat and trying to have enough veget
42、ables and fruits, seems to be quite important. One very effective and costless way of prevention is regular（定期的） exercise, which is necessary for a healthy mind and body. Regular exercise, such as running, walking, and playing sports is a good way to make people feel better. In addition, health educ
43、ation plays a key role in improving peoples health. By giving people more information about health, countries could help people understand the importance of disease prevention and ways to achieve it. For example, knowing ones family medical history is an effective way to help keep healthy. Informati
44、on about health problems among close relatives will make them aware of what they should do to prevent certain diseases through lifestyle changes, which will work before it is too late. However, paying more attention to disease prevention does not mean medical treatment is unimportant. After all, pre
45、vention and treatment are just two different means toward the same effect. In conclusion, we could save money on health care and treat patients more successfully if our country spends more money on health prevention and education. 【小题 1】 Whats the meaning of the underlined word “consuming” in Paragr
46、aph 2 A Avoiding. B Producing. C Eating. D Cooking. 【小题 2】 Whats the best title of the passage A Health or Illness B Exercise or Illness C Prevention or Education D Prevention or Treatment 【小题 3】 We can learn from the passage that _. A more health education should be given B dressing warmly can prev
