解答 答案:A
该题考查动词意义辨析,appear意为"显得、看起来",become意为"变得、成为",turn意为"旋转、变成",grow意为"成长、种植",由much younger than you really are可知该处意为"看起来比实际年龄小",所以应用appear,故选A.

8.It was shortly before midnight,and Dr Patricia was getting ready for bed.The phone rang on the end of the line was a woman about to break a promise.
The woman was her mother's neighbour.Flora Harris had made the neighbour swear she wouldn't tell her daughter she'd a heart attack and was in the hospital,for fear her daughter would worry.The neighbour wisely decided to disobey orders.
Harris desperately wanted to get to the hospital immediately,but she couldn't.She lives in Washington,D.C,and her mother lives in California.
For the past year a half,Harris has gone to Los Angeles every other month to take care of her mother.Flora Harris takes care of her husband,James,who's 91and has Alzheimer's disease.They live in their own home,and a caregiver comes to help them a few hours a day.
Harris is one of many Americans facing the heartache of how to take care of aging parents from afar.She's often worried,not to mention extremely busy with a demanding job,two teenage daughters and the frequent trips to California.
In some ways,Harris is lucky.She has the resources to make the trips to Los Angeles.Plus,Harris is a doctor who treats the elderly.
"But it's still tough,"she said."I can foresee what the next few years are going to look like,and it's not a pretty picture.My father's going to need diapers (尿布).There will come a time when he won't recognize me and he's easily excited.I worry he's going to be violent and hurt my mother."
So what do you do when you live a continent away for your aging,sick parents?There are no magic answers.You can hire someone to help,but you can't outsource it completely.

9.The Knicks'new point guard,who has only started in six games so far,has already earned praise from President Barack Obama,become the hottest sports star on earth,and inspired the entire Asian-American community.Despite not being born in China,Lin has moved over Yao Ming,as a powerful role model of newest basketball hero.
Lin went from Palo Alto High School,California to an economics degree at Harvard.After graduating from Harvard in 2010,Lin wasn't drafted by any NBA team,which would have made him the first Ivy League alumni (常青藤校友)to be drafted since 1955.But Lin remained commit-ted to making it as a professional basketball player.He started off on the Golden State Warriors.Lin first signed with the Warriors in July,2010,but rarely played in games before the start of the fourth quarter.His first time on the court for the Worriers earned him seven points,three rebounds(篮板) and two assists in just 11 minutes.
With every game,every precise pass and every clever drive to the basket,Lin is raising expectations,changing the Knicks'fate and redefining the word"unlikely."On Twitter,fans are using
another term to describe the phenomenon:"Linsanity."( Linsanity:Lin+insanity)

2.The current Ebola (埃博拉病毒) outbreak in western and central Africa has infected at least 3,069 people,including 1,552 dead,making it the largest outbreak in history.Ebola is a deadly virus-about 60percent of people infected with it have died.
How is Ebola doing its harm?
When a person becomes infected with Ebola,the virus damages the body's immune (免疫的) cells,which defend against infection,said a researcher at Lancaster University.But if a person's immune system can stand up to this attack,then he is more likely to survive the disease.
The patients that survive it best are those who don't get such a bad disadvantage in immune system.But if the body isn't able to get rid of this attack,then the immune system becomes less able to regulate (调节) itself.This means the immune system is more likely to run out of control,leading to a drop in blood pressure,multi-organ failure and eventually death.
What are the common symptoms of the disease?
Fever.Headache.Joint and muscle aches.Weakness.Diarrhea.Vomiting.Stomach pain.Lack of appetite.Chills.Rash.Redness in the eyes.Hiccups.Cough.Sore throat.Chest pain.Difficult breathing or swallowing.Bleeding inside and outside of the body.
How to prevent the spread of Ebola?
Ebola can be spread primarily via direct contact with patients,specifically the blood and fluids of an infected patient.
We should avoid contact with infected patients and objects such as clothing,bedding,and needles used by them.Avoid areas where infections have been reported.For now,the disease has only been confirmed in central and West Africa,four cases in America and Europe.Avoid eating wild-caught bush meat.Researchers have suspected that the disease came to humans via animals,probably through the meat of primates(灵长类).If you're in an area where the disease has been reported,avoid purchasing,eating,or handling wild game to stay on the safe side.
Wear protective medical clothing if you're around infected patients.Extreme caution is necessary.Hospital workers must use masks,gloves,goggles,and gowns,which needed to be worn at all times if you're around infected patients.
How Do People Survive Ebola?
Doctors don't know for certain who will survive Ebola,and there is no specific treatment or cure for the disease.Although in the minority,some people do recover from infection.
Our suggestions include:
Maintain your electrolytes (电解质) and body liquid.Sports drinks can be used.Monitor your blood pressure and control it if necessary.Dropping blood pressure may be a serious sign of infection.Breathe in an oxygen-rich environment.Quickly address any symptoms of infection.Be honest about when and where you're feeling pain.

46.Ebola causes the death of a human being byC.
A.attacking him with high fever
B.regulating his immune system
C.damaging his immune cells

A.Fever and chills.
B.Swallowing difficulty.

48.In order not to be infected by Ebola,we shouldB.
A.have the clothing of the infected cleaned
B.avoid eating wild animals like monkeys
C.not travel to Africa,America or Europe

9.A new study finds that combining music therapy(疗法)  with a standard treatment for depression-medication,plus psychotherapy and counseling (辅导)-improves patient outcomes.
Researchers invited 79people between the ages of 18and 50years old who had been diagnosed with depression.33of the participants were offered 20music therapy sessions,in addition to their usual treatment for depression.The other 46participants received stan dard treatment,and acted as the control group.The one-on-one music therapy sessions each lasted 60 minutes and took place twice a week.Trained music therapists helped each participant to improvise(即兴创作)music.
On average,each participant attended 18 music therapy sessions,29 individuals(88 percent)attended at least 15 sessions.The participants in both groups were followed up at three and six months and assessed for symptoms of depression and anxiety.
 In the final analysis,researchers discovered that after three months of participation,individuals who received music therapy showed greatly fewer symptoms of depression and anxiety,and scored better on general functioning.Although improvements still remainded after six months,the difference between the groups was no longer statistically significant.
Co-researcher Christian Gold,Ph.D.,explained the study findings:"Our trial has shown that music therapy,when added to standard care including  medication,psychotherapy and counseling(商讨),helps people to improve their levels of depression and anxiety.Music therapy has specific qualities that allow people to express themselves and interact in  a non-verbal way-even when they cannot find the words to describe their inner experiences."
 Given the success of the study,researchers say it needs to be repeated with a larger sample of people,and that further research is needed to assess the cost-effectiveness of sucha therapy.
Outside experts believe this study shows that music therapy is an effective addition to traditional therapy and improves outcomes.Mike Crawford,M.D.,said,"This is a high-quality randomized(随机的)trialof music therapy specifically for depression,and the results suggest that it can improve the mood and general functioning of people with depression".
