身体各个方面包括身材、力量和智力都还有待发展和完善，所以排除B、D。根据第1段第2句句末的内容可推测。根据第一段中butatthisagethepossibilityofdeathisleast可知，C项错误；根据第二段第 二句Itisoneofthemostunpleasantdiscoverieswhichweallmakethatwemustdeclineinthisway...可知，老化是最让人不愉快的发现之一，故当人们想起老化的时候，他们通常是不快乐的。故选A。[答案]A6．Theunderlinedword“it”inthelastsentenceofParagraph2refersto________.A．remainingaliveuntil65B．dyingbefore65orafter80C．remainingaliveafter80D．dyingbetween65and80[解析]decade.But段中Someofuswilldiesooner，afewwilllivelonger—onintoaninthor tenthdecade.Butthechancesareagainstit，“有些人逝去得早些，而少数人可以活到90多岁至100岁”，it所在句出现的But以及下文“我们所能期望的寿命实际上是有限度的”提示，it应该指代前面出现的“长寿”。故选C。[答案]C7．Whatdoes“ageing”meanaccordingtothepassage?A．Itisafactthatpeoplecannotliveanylonger.B．Itreferstoagraduallossofvigorandresistance.C．Itisusuallyaphenomenonofdyingatanoldage.D．Itisaperiodwhenpeopleareeasilyattackedbyillness.[解析]细节理解题。根据ageing及各选项内容定位到第1、2段。根据第2段第1句对ageing的概括以及第1段第3句后半部分对ageing的诠释，可知B为本题答案。C、D实际上是衰老过程的两个方面，因此C、D表述都是相对片面的，可排除；通过文中的叙述可知，衰老是一个过程，而不仅是一个简单事实，故A项不恰当，也可排除。[答案]B8．Whatdotheexamplesofthewatchrefertointhelastparagraph?A．Normallypeoplearequitefamiliarwiththeageingprocess.B．Thelawofthermodynamicsfunctionsintheageingprocess.C．Allanimalsandotherorganismsundergotheageingprocess.D．Human'sageingprocessisdifferentfromthatofmechanisms.[解析]推理判断题。根据题干中的watch定位到第4段。第4段中间部分指出：破损的手表也有不能修理的时候，由于自身的金属构造，手表不能像人类的身体那样进行自我修复，而人类的自我修复还可以在一定程度上缓解病痛、延长生命。这就表明人类和手表等机械装置的“衰老”过程有较大的区别，故选D。A、B与手表的例子无关，可首先排除；虽然热力学定律适用于手表等机械装置，但文中例子并没有传达出C的意思，故C也可排除。[答案]DCread.Peoplewrite.Dyslexiaintelligence.Thelanguage.Brainhelp.Johnheabilitytorecognizewordsandconnectsoundswithletterswhenpeopleread.Peoplewiththislearningdisordermayalsohaveproblemswhentheywrite.Dyslexiaisnotrelatedtoeyesightorintelligence.Theprobleminvolvesareasofthebrainthatprocesslanguage.Brainscientistsarestudyingwhethertheycanpredictwhichyoungchildrenmaystrugglewithreadingtoprovidethemwithearlyhelp.JohnGabrieliattheMassachusettsInstituteofTechnologyisleadingthestudyoffive－year－oldsinabouttwentyschoolsintheBostonarea.Theystudiedintheschoolswithkindergartens.Andforallthechildrenjoininginthestudy，theygivethemabriefsetofpaper－and－pencilteststolookatwhichchildrenappeartobeatsomeriskforstrugglingtoread.Sofar，fiftyofthemhavebeenexaminedinascanner，aspecialmachine，toshowbrainactivity.Writtentestsarenotalwaysabletoidentifydyslexiaorotherproblems，whilebrainscansmayofferamorescientificwaytoidentifyproblems.Andwithreadingproblems，earlyidentificationisimportant.Whenitestohelpingchildrenoverereadingdifficulties，theyoungerthechild，themoreeffectivetheyare.Readingproblemsarenotusuallyidentifieduntilachildisinthethirdorfourthgrade.Thelaterchildrenarerecognizedaspoorreaders，thelesstreatmentcanhelp.And，asProfessorGabrielipointsout，poorreadingcanmakeeducationastruggle.Readingiseverything.Evenmathandsciencehavebooks.Whilethechildrenaregiventasksrelatedtoreading，thebrainscansmeasuretowhichcertainpartsofthebrainbeeactivewhilethechildrendothework.Thescientistssaytheyarepleasedwithearlyresultsfromthestudy，buthavealongwaytogo.语篇解读：本文为一篇说明文。讲述了孩子诵读困难症的症状、研究及治疗的时期和必要性等内容。9．Dyslexiaaffectsthepartofbrainconcerning________.A．eyesight
