分析八国集团由世界上八个最富有的国家组成．

解答答案B．
没有be made up这种说法，可排除A；但是有be made up of这种说法，意思是"由…组成/构成"；consist of包括；由…组成；由…构成．consist of无被动语态，可排除C；因为主语The Group of Eight 是表示机构的专有名词，做主语时应该看作单数，所以谓语动词也应该使用单数形式，所以可排除D；故答案选B．

11．This is not a typical summer camp．Michelle Paw law and eight other teenage girls are participating in the three-day camp offered by the Arlington County Fire Department located just outside Washington．Firefighter Clare Burley is in charge of the program，who said the purpose is to try to get young women interested in considering the fire service as a career．

7．Many blind people use guide dogs to help them get safely from place to place and to warn them of danger．But what can blind people do if they are allergic（过敏的）to dogs or just don't like them？For some people，the answer is provided by the Guide Horse Foundation．
Janet and Don Burleson founded the organization in 1999．They began training miniature horses to help guide blind people．Miniature horses look just like regular horses，only much smaller．They are generally less than 34 inches tall．
Cuddles was the foundation's first guide horse in full service．She became 45-year-old Dan Shaw's helper．Shaw has an eye disease and his sight is very poor．One night，while filling out a form to get a guide dog，Shaw heard a news story on TV about people training horses to guide the blind．Shaw loves horses and wanted a guide animal that would live a long time．He applied（申请），and a year later，Cuddles and Shaw began training as a team．
On a trip to New York，Cuddles helped Shaw safely tour Times Square，a very busy part of the city at night．The next day，Cuddles calmly rode the elevator with Shaw to the crowded top of the Empire State Building，a famous tall building．Cuddles even guided Shaw on the boat ride to the Statue of Liberty，and traveled on the subway system．
Shaw says that he is very lucky to have Cuddles．He believes that Cuddles has changed his life for the better by giving him the chance to do things himself and making him feel much more confident about himself．

17．Let's face it．No one drinks diet sodas for the taste．People drink diet sodas in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it．Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect，according to a new study．
Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didn't drink diet sodas．"What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank，the more weight they were likely to gain，"said Sharon Fowler．
The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large，ongoing research project，where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years．
While the findings are surprising，they also offer some explanations．
Nutrition expert，Melanie Rogers，who works with overweight patients in New York，has found that when patients are switched from regular to diet sodas，they don't lose weight at all．"We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily，and that was confusing to us，"said Rogers．
So why would diet soda cause weight gain？No one knows for sure yet，but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet sodas，and so over-compensate（弥补） for the missing calories．
A related study found some sweeteners （甜味剂）raised blood sugar levels in some mice．"Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky，"said Helen P．Hazuda，professor at School of Medicine of the University of Texas．"They may be free of calories，but not of consequences．"

33．People drink diet sodas toC．

35．The underlined word"They"in the last paragraph probably refers to"C"．
A．sweeteners
B．diet sodas and artificial sweeteners
C．sodas
D．diet soda drinkers and sweetener takers．

4．It's that time of year when people need to lock their cars．It's not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars．Rather，it's because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest．Especially with this year's large crop，leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to fill it with zucchini（西葫芦）．
    My sister，Sharon，recently had a good year for tomatoes．She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red．That's when she decided it was time to share her blessings．She started calling everyone she knew．When that failed，she began asking everyone in the neighborhood，eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes．"Feel free to take whatever you want，"Sharon told her．Later that day，Sharon found that her garden had indeed been harvested．She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn't go to waste．
    A few days later，Sharon answered the door．There was the neighbor，holding a hot loaf of bread．The neighbor smiled pleasantly，"I wanted to thank you for all of the tomatoes，and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hoped you wouldn't mind．"
    Sharon couldn't think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so．"Oh，but you did，"the neighbor said．"You had some of the prettiest zucchini I've ever seen．"
    Sharon was confused．They hadn't even planted any zucchini．But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden．Sharon felt curious and decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown．The two of them walked together into the backyard．When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables，Sharon smiled．"Well，actually，those are cucumbers that we never harvested，because they got too big，soft and bitter for eating．"
    The neighbor looked at Sharon，shock written all over her face．She gulped（哽住）a few times，and then，smiling，held out the bread，part of a batch she had shared all over the neighborhood．"I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread．I hope you like it．"
