they get older，but mens minds decline (衰退) more than womens，according to the results of a worldwide survey.Certain differences seem to be inherent in male and female brains：Men are better at maintaining and dealing with mental images (useful in mathematical reasoning and spatial (空间的) skills)，while women tend to excel (擅长) at recalling information from their brains files (helpful with language skills and remembering the locations of objects)Many studies have looked for a connection between sex and the amount of mental decline people experience as the age，but the results have been mixed.Some studies found more agerelated decline in men than in women，while others saw the opposite or even no relationship at all between sex and mental decline.Those results could be improper because the studies involved older people，and women live longer than men.“The men tested are the survivors，so theyre the ones that may not have shown such cognitive decline，” said team leader Elizabeth of the University of Warwick in England.People surveyed completed four tasks that tested sexrelated cognitive skills：matching an object to its rotated (旋转) form；matching lines shown from the same angle，typing as many words in a particular kind as possible in the given time，e.g.“object usually colored gray”，and recalling the location of objects in a line drawing.The first two were tasks at which men usually excel；the latter were typically dominated by women.Within each age group studied，men and women performed better in their separate categories on average.And though performance declined with age for both men and women，women showed obviously less decline than men overall.1The underlined word “inherent” in the second paragraph probably means_.Anatural Bgreat Cobvious Dabsolute2What is the difference between men and women according to the passage?AMen do better than women when learning English.BWomen stand out at remembering peoples names.CMen excel at typing as many words in a particular kind as possible in the given time.DWomen excel at dealing with mathematic problems.3One important factor that affects the correctness of the results is that_.Athe old men tested may not have shown such declineBpeople surveyed are all oldCpeople taking part in this test came from all over the worldDmore men were tested than women4Which of the following tasks might people do in the survey?ARotating an object from different angles.BTyping words in a certain kind.CDrawing lines from the same angle.DRecalling the former location of a rotated object.5The author aims to tell us that_.Awomens minds perform better than mensBmens minds decline more with ageCeveryone becomes a little more forgetful as they get olderDa survey on womens mental decline was done

word.1.(1)cost(2)paid(3)spent(4)took(5)pay解析spend的主语必须是人，宾语可以是钱、精力、时间等。常见搭配：spend on sth./spend (in) doing sth.。take表示“花费”时，主语一般是一件事，表明“事情完成花费了”。常用“It takes(took) sb. some time to do sth.”结构。cost的主语必须是物或行为，意为“某物花费某人多少时间或金钱”，也可意为“某行为丧失某人生命或财产等”。pay意为“支付”，作为及物动词，宾语可以是人或钱。pay for的宾语为物或事。for表支付的原因。2(1)damage(2)ruined(3)destroyed/ruined (4)destroyed(5)ruin解析destroy只能用作动词，指彻底破坏，以致不可能修复，常作“破坏，毁灭”讲，也可以指希望、计划等被打破。damage指部分“损坏，损害”或指使用价值有所降低。它可以用作动词，也可以用作名词，用作名词时常与to sth.连用。ruin则表示破坏严重，以致不能修复。但这种破坏不像destroy那样毁灭某物，而是强调致使该物的使用价值发生了问题。试比较：The earthquake destroyed the whole town.地震毁灭了整个城镇。(房屋倒塌，街道受阻等方面的严重破坏。)The earthquake ruined the whole town.地震使整个城镇夷为废墟。(城镇已不再是原来的样子，变成废墟，无法居住和生活。)ruin用作动词时，它作“使毁灭，使崩溃，弄糟”讲；而作名词时，它表示“毁灭，瓦解，废墟”等抽象概念。3(1)(to) clean(2)being(3)(to) cheat (4)thinking解析cant help doing sth.禁不住做某事，情不自禁地做某事；cant help (to) do sth.不能帮着干某事。.1.Bmean doing sth.意味着必须要做某事或导致某种结果；mean to do sth.意欲、打算干某事。根据句意“我认为他想找麻烦。”可知，B项为正确答案。2Bthe determined look坚定的表情；suggest作“建议”讲时，其后面的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，即主语(should)动词原形；而作“暗示，表明”讲时，宾语从句中谓语动词使用相应的时态。根据句意，此处suggest意为“表明”，故B项为正确答案。3Bin public在公众场合；the public公众。句意为：他女儿在公众场合很害羞，她从来没对公众作过报告。4Cwith the result that.带来的结果是，后面跟从句，符合句意。as a result因此，结果是，一般用逗号与后面的句子隔开；as a result of由于的原因，后面跟名词或名词性短语，但不跟句子；D项中的冠词不对。5B考查情态动词表推测的用法。句意为：她意识到她的朋友中肯定有一个人出卖了她。对过去的推测要用“情态动词have done”形式。can表推测时不用于肯定句。注意英语中
