3.Perhaps one aspect of modern life which is most often considered‘a(chǎn)nnoying'is noise.According to some estimates,the amount of urban noise (32)has doubled (double) in the past ten years,and with the increase in road and air traffic,noise is likely to increase too.
Noise quite clearly affects the health of modern man.It is a health threat.Loud noise (33)is said (say) to be a leading cause of deafness among many people over 65.It is also a major (34)contributing (contribute) factor in causing stress,(35)which itself causes a variety of illnesses.
Noise is sometimes associated with lack of communication in the modern world.In many busy shops,factories and nightclubs,(36)the level and constancy of noise make conversation at a natural level difficult or impossible.
Certain people in society,such as motorcyclists,seem to believe they have a right (37)to make (make) as much noise as they like without being fined.Do they?
We are so trained to noise in this modern world (38)that people growing up with little (39)or no experience of genuine peace and quiet have begun to associate silence with boredom.Isn't it time for us to start teaching young people that silence is golden and that you can do a lot of interesting things (40)without the accompaniment of noise?

分析 或許現(xiàn)代生活被認為最惱人的一個方面就是噪音.據(jù)估計,城市噪聲量已經(jīng)在過去的十年中加倍,并且隨著道路和空中交通的增加,噪聲也可能會增加.噪音給人們的生活和健康帶來了很大的危害,所以我們要教育孩子:沉默是金.

解答 32.has doubled 考查現(xiàn)在完成時.因為后面的時間狀語in the past ten years是現(xiàn)在完成時的標志,the amount of 的謂語用單數(shù),故填has doubled.
33.is said 考查一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài).因為noise與say是被動關系,且敘述的是客觀情況,所以用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài),故填is said.       
34.contributing 考查形容詞.根據(jù)前面的a major 和后面的 factor,可知此處應用形容詞形式名詞 factor,故填 contributing意為"起作用的".
35.which  考查定語從句的關系代詞.根據(jù)空格前的逗號和句意,可知是非限制性定語從句,此空指代前面的stress,在定語從句中指物做主語,故填which.           
36.the考查定冠詞.根據(jù)后面的定語of noise可知,此處level是特指"噪音的水平",故填定冠詞the表特指.
37.to make 考查非謂語.因為抽象名詞后面常用動詞不定式作后置定語,right是抽象名詞意為"權力",故填to make.       
38.that 考查狀語從句.根據(jù)句意可知此處考查固定句式"so…that…如此…以致于…",故填so.          
39.or  考查連詞.根據(jù)句意及空前的little和空后的no,可知此處是選擇關系,故填or意為"或者".             
40.without考查介詞.句意:沒有噪音,你可以做很多有趣的事情.因為空后是名詞,所以用介詞without,意為"沒有".

點評 語法填空是通過語篇在語境中考查語法知識的運用能力,在解題前應快速瀏覽短文掌握大意,在讀懂短文的基礎上,結合短文提供的特定的語言環(huán)境去逐句分析,逐題解答.扎實的語法功底加上準確的理解至關重要.

12.Following one million middle-aged women in Britain for 10 years,a study finds that the widely held view that happiness enhances health and longevity is unfounded.
The results come from the so-called Million Women Study,which took on women aged 50 to 69 from 1996 to 2001,and tracked them with questionnaires and official records of death and hospital admissions.The questionnaires asked how often the women felt happy,in control,relaxed and stressed,and also instructed them to rate their health and list ailments like high blood pressure,diabetes,depression or anxiety.
When the answers were analyzed statistically,unhappiness and stress were not associated with an increased risk of death.It is not clear whether the findings apply to men.
Professor Peto said particularly important data came from 500,000 women who reported that they were in good health,with no history of heart disease,cancer,or stroke.A minority of these healthy women said they were stressed or unhappy,he said,but over the next decade they were no more likely to die than were the women who were generally happy.
"This finding refutes(駁斥)the large effects of unhappiness and stress on deathrate that others have claimed,"Dr.Peto said.Unhappiness itself may not affect health directly,but it can do harm in other ways,by driving people to suicide,alcoholism or other dangerous behaviors,he warned.
This type of study,in which people involved depends on their self-assessments,is not considered as reliable as a designed experiment where people involved are picked at random and assigned to a treatment or control group.But the huge number of people in this study gives it power.Still,some observers noted that measuring emotions is more nuanced(細微的)and complex than simply declaring happiness or unhappiness.
"I would have liked to see more discussion of how people translate these complicated feelings into a self-report of happiness,"said Baruch Fischhoff,a psychologist at Carnegie Mellon University.
The results of earlier studies have been mixed,with some finding that unhappiness causes illness and others showing no link,Dr.Fischhoff said."It looks to me like people have collected a lot of data without finding a clear signal,"he said.However,an editorial accompanying the study in The Lancet noted that it had the largest population so far in happiness studies and praised its statistical methods.
Professor Peto said he doubted whether the new study would change many minds because beliefs about the risks of unhappiness are so rooted."People are still going to believe that stress causes heart attacks,"he said.

Like many other young people,Lin Chi-ying (Vicky) and Chiang Chiu-ping (Pinky) dreamed of traveling the world.What makes them special is that they actually did it; what's more,they did it on bicycles.
At 18,Vicky read the famous Cycling Diary of Hu Rong-hua and was(41)H to take a bike tour of southern China by herself.In 1991,while riding along the island's east coast,she met a Japanese (42)F,who invited her to join him on a world cycling tour.
In July 1998,they began their trip in Alaska.Vicky soon realized,however,that their travel philosophies were quite different.Her partner seemed intent on testing his endurance,while she preferred (43)C the fantastic scenery and meeting the locals.They parted after a month.Vicky cycled alone through the Rocky Mountains down to the western United States.By this time,her (44)E efforts to persuade her college friend,Pinky,to join her had succeeded.
