Passage 2

It was a dark and stormy night. Somewhere, Gary Bettman was seething. All these events being cancelled, and not by him.

On TV, anticipation was so animated it was heatedly debated and, in the way that television is ghastly in its predilections, the coverage was both ghoulish and foolish. On CNN, it went like this--in the studio, an anchor lady talking to a weather guy who noted, "it will be onshore in less than three hours," at which point anchor lady declared, "and there he is, All Velshi! " Cut to All Velshi, barely upright and ankle-deep in water in Atlantic City, in a fierce, whipping wind.

"All, at any point in time we will yank this, if you are in any danger at all," anchor lady announced helpfully. Then, "what else do you see, All?" To which he answered, "There's some siding flying off buildings. Unless you're kinda like us and reporting, there's no reason to be out here."

Too true. On channel after channel, reporters standing in howling winds and pouring rain to illustrate that, yeah, the storm was arriving and it was wicked, just as predicted. In case anyone thought it was a con "job.

Then the Hurricane Sandy devastation in New Jersey and New York. Footage of flooded

subways, as if massive waves of water finding an outlet in large holes in the ground was a surprise.

In Toronto's east end, a tree fell. Power went out. CP24 savoured i_t all, at last some real, honest-to-God disaster effects.

For all the raw footage and dramatic scenes of flooding, fires, rescue workers waist-deep in water and darkened buildings lashed by wind, television struggles to convey the authenticity of disaster-inducing storms. The fallback position is disaster-movie cliche and panicked voices in a studio commanding viewers to look (just look!) at this footage of flooding! The term "weather porn" doesn't do it justice.

本题解析:

题干问第六段的“weather porn”和第九段的“election porn”暗示什么。在第六段的The term“weather pom”doesn’t do it justice.和第九段的The term“election pom”doesn’t do it justice.中,术语“weather porn”和“election porn”之后,都提到了“doesn’t do it iustice”,即“没有公正地展示其内涵”。由此可知,新闻报道中常常存在不属实的报道现象,而在"election porn”之后也提到的“The heart sank.”即这会令观众产生排斥和失望的情绪.故选C.

正确答案:D

本题解析:

题干问第五段划线的it指代什么。根据上文“In Toronto’s east end,a tree fell.Power went out."可知,在多伦多东区,“飓风桑迪”(Hurricane Sandy)已经造成树倒、断电的严重影响。因此,可知“CP24 savoured it all,at last some real。honest.t0.God disaster effects.”讲述的也是“飓风桑迪”带来的破坏性影响.即“加拿大卫星电视台CP 24也尝尽了‘飓风桑迪’带来的苦头,最后真可谓是一场灾难性的影响”.所以此处的it代指“飓风桑迪”(Hurricane Sandv).故选D。

正确答案:A

本题解析:

题干中问在第四段中“conjob”的含义,因此需要联系上下文推断其含义。“con job”之前的句子为“On channel after channel,reporters standing in howling winds and pouting rain to illustrate that,yea,the storm was arriving and it was wicked,just as predicted.”,讲述的是一个频道接一个频道都是记者站在咆哮的大风和倾盆的大雨中进行现场报道,正如预报的那样,暴风雨来临,疯狂肆虐。接下来作者写道“In case anyone thought it was a con job.”即“以防任何人认为这是__________”。四个选项中,A项“骗局,恶作剧”,B项“努力工作”,C项“令人厌倦的任务”,D项“特殊使命”,根据句意可知,应为“以防任何人认为这是骗人的”,故选A。

正确答案:B

本题解析:

“Too true.”表示“太真实了。”出现在第四段的段首,因此。可以推断出此处的“Too true.”是对上文出现的内容的肯定表达。文章第二、三段讲述的是在飓风来临时.CNN演播室的记者与飓风现场记者之间的对话。演播室的记者问道:“Then,what else do you see,Ali ”Ali Velshi答道:“There’s some staling flying off buildings.Unless you’re kinda like US and reportin9,there’S no reason to be out here.”因此,可知,“Too true.”是对这句话的肯定表达,即B项中的“表明作者完全赞同CNN新闻记者的报道”.故选B。

Passage 1

Move over Methuselah. Future generations could be living well into their second century and still doing Sudoku, if life expectancy predictions are true. Increasing by two years every decade,they show no signs of flattening out. Average lifespan worldwide is already double what it was 200 years ago. Since the 1980s, experts thought the increase in life expectancy would slow down and then stop, but forecasters have repeatedly been proved wrong.

The reason behind the steady rise in life expectancy is "the decline in the death rate of the elderly", says Professor Tom Kirkwood from Newcastle University. He maintains that our bodies are evolving to maintain and repair themselves better and our genes are investing in this process to put off the damage which will eventually lead to death. As a result, there is no ceiling imposed by the realities of the ageing process. "There is no use-by-date when we age. Ageing is not a fixed biological process," Tom says.

A large study of people aged 85 and over carried out by Professor Kirkwood discovered that there were a remarkable number of people enjoying good health and independence in their late 80s and beyond. With people reaching old age in better shape, it is safe to assume that this is all due to better eating habits, living conditions, education and medicine.

There are still many people who suffer from major health problems, but modern medicine means doctors are better at managing long-term health conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. "We are reaching old age with less accumulative damage than previous generations. We are less damaged," says Professor Kirkwood. Our softer lives and the improvements in nutrition and healthcare have had a direct impact on longevity.

本题解析:

从词义上来看,mortality是“死亡,致命”的意思,因此画线词就是较低死亡率的意思:另外从语境上来看,这是由and连接的两个并列成分,good life expectancy and low mortality,并列的成分前后含义应该接近,前面说的是较长的寿命,刚好和后面的较低死亡率同义转换。故选B。

本题解析:

题干问的是文章一开始预言未来的一代在过百岁时仍然能够玩一种叫作数独的益智游戏.这种预言的目的是什么。A项说的是为了说明数独是一种健康的生活方式.浏览本文可知本文重点不在于介绍数独游戏,而在于说明人类寿命的延长以及分析使寿命延长的一系列原因。因此A选项可以排除:B项说的是为了证明数独游戏能帮助人们回到玛士撒拉(传说中的吸血鬼长寿者).这很明显脱离了文章要表达的意思。C项说的是因为数独游戏现在很流行,所以未来的一代会喜欢这个游戏.本文围绕未来一代将会更加长寿论述.中心不是游戏;D项说的是暗示未来一代在过百岁时也会很聪明并且精力旺盛.与文章的中心最为贴近。并且最符合文章的主题思想。故选D。
