33、 have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men. In a survey done for insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drun
34、k driving. “Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的 ) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents,” the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them upon one point
35、: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control， which helps prevent rollover accidents. Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amoun
36、ts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest, advantage in Wyoming (where
37、 they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D.C, where their insurance costs are 16% lower. “More than 11,900 male drivers died in US traffic accidents in 2009， compared with just under 4,900 women drivers” according to the study. “Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per
38、100 million miles traveled, vs.1.7 deaths for women.” 【小题 1】 According to the study， female drivers _.

39、female driver clients probably because they_. A cause more accidents on the road B pay more money to the insurance companies C take the most part of the insurance clients D have the lowest amount of money on insurance claims 【小题 3】 We can infer from the passage that_.

41、ng a conclusion D presenting an argument 答案：【小题 1】 C 【小题 2】 D 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 B 试题分析：本文通过大量数据，对男女司机在驾驶安全性上进行对比。 【小题 1】 C 细节理解题。题干中提到 study，那么可以定位到第二段的 survey。A项中的 aggressive出自原文，但对应的是 less aggressive，因此 A与原文矛盾；B项 auto knowledge出自原文，但对应的是 back them up，并且这里的 them指代的是 men，因此 B与原文矛盾； D项 safety equipment
42、 出自原文，但对应的是more men are familiar with ，因此 D与原文矛盾； C项与原文 ”Women are more law abiding ( 守法的 ) drivers”为同义改写，因此 C正确。 【小题 2】 D 细节题。 A项与原文矛盾，可以直接排除； B项 pay money出自原文，但对应的是 women pay about 9% less，因此 B项与原文矛盾； C项insurance clients与原文 insurance rates对应，但原文中是 lower for women in most states，因此 C也与原文矛盾；而 D项可以从第
43、四段例举的数据中得出。 【小题 3】 D推断题。 A项 3.1与原文第一段的 3.4矛盾，且本题为推断题，原文内容不能选； B项从第四段后半段的数据对比矛盾；从第四段我们可以看出当前男性死亡率要远高 于女性，由此无法推理出每年女性比男性死亡得多；而整篇文章每个段落都在进行男女性的对比，所例举的数据综合起来便可以毫无疑问的推理出 “整体来说，女性相对于男性开车更安全 ”。 【小题 4】 B考查文章的行文方式。通过我们对文章的解读可以发现，每一段都在进行男性女性之间的对比，特别是大量的数据对比，所以 B项正确。 考点：考查科学研究类阅读 On countless mornings over the

45、k at the research on child development, I think it might not. Where our kids go to school might matter less than most American parents think. Social scientists have long tried to determine why some children grow up to be successful. In a 2001 study, Greg Duncan, a professor of education at the Unive
46、rsity of California, measured the influence that the people in a childs life have on how well the child does in school. Duncan and his team found almost no relationship between how students did on the test and whom they sat beside in class, whom they hung out with after school and who lived in their
47、 block. The only meaningful link they found was between siblings（兄弟姐妹） and twins in particular. For a long time, scholars thought that a familys income heavily affected how well kids did in life. But that might not be the case. When Susan Mayer at the University of Chicago looked at the relationship
48、 between family income and lifetime achievement, she ran a series of experiments to measure it, finding such outcomes werent caused by income. She argued that the things that make a difference are relatively inexpensive: the number of books a kid has or how often his family goes to museums. Lareau,
49、another scholar began one of the most in-depth observations of American parenting. He concluded that success is much more related to the amount of time parents spend with their children. He said “Many parents I interviewed are anxious about their childrens futures But they have exaggerated（夸大） the sense of the risks invo
