题目内容
19.Mothers of kids with disabilities might be more forgetful,as they age than other mothers,according to a new study.And mothers with a strong support system,a sense of control and a history of regular exercise kept sharper than the other mothers.However,fathers of disabled children did not differ from fathers of non-disabled children in memory skills as they aged.That's not surprising,considering past research that has shown parents with disabled kids tend to feel more stressed and to have more psychological problems like depression.In the study,parents were tested on memory and fluency,reasoning,working memory and ability to switch their attention.Physical health,physical activity,depression,sense of control,social support and negative parenting experience were also included.
The mothers of disabled kids tended to be much more depressed,in worse physical health and to feel they had less of a sense of control than mothers without disabled kids.For instance,18percent of mothers of disabled children reported having been depressed in the 12months prior to the study,compared with 7percent of mothers without disabled kids.Mothers of disabled children also had less support from friends than women without disabled children.Besides,among the women with disabled children,being more educated and having more social support were linked to significantly better memory ants thinking.
Fathers with disabled kids had more negative parenting experiences than fathers whose kids were not disabled.The researchers did not have information about the severity(严重)of the children's disabilities,their ages,or about any disabilities or other health problems among the parents.They acknowledge in their report that because they only looked at one point in time,they cannot say whether parenting a disabled child caused the memory differences they observed.

解答 28-31.BBCC
28题答案:B考查细节推理,第二段中的In the study,parents were tested on memory and fluency,reasoning,working memory and ability to switch their attention.Physical health,physical activity,depression,sense of control,social support and negative parenting experience were also included.包含了A、C、D选项,只有B选项不再里面;故本题答案为B选项.

30题答案:C考查细节推理,根据最后一段的The researchers did not have information about the severity(严重)of the children's disabilities,their ages,or about any disabilities or other health problems among the parents.They acknowledge in their report that because they only looked at one point in time,they cannot say whether parenting a disabled child caused the memory differences they observed.研究者并没有关于孩子残疾、年龄或他们的父母中残疾或健康的信息.他们在报告中承认它们只是看了一个点,他们还无法说是否抚养残疾孩子会带来比他们所观察到的更多的记忆差异.可知该研究还需要进一步研究,故本题答案为C信息.
31题答案:C考查推理判断,本文的体裁属于科学类的说明文,主要讲的是一项研究表明残疾孩子的父母会有更多的健康方面的问题;故本题答案为C选项.
