According to scientists’ research, the month in which babies are born could affect them in some ways.

Babies born in spring get sick easily. Children born under Aquarius (Jan. 21st—Feb. 19th) may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn. Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mother’s exposure to sunlight in pregnancy (懷孕). Sunlight helps lead to the production of vitamin D in the body. The lack (缺乏) of vitamin D in the first months of life may have a bad effect on health.

Vitamin D is called the “sunshine vitamin”. It has a good effect on health. A study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the US showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.

Professor Russell Foster said the conclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, “These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth.”

1.A child’s season of birth can affect all the following things EXCEPT ________ according to the first two paragraphs.

A. his health B. his height

C. his length of life D. his quality of being clever

2.What does the underlined word “exposure” mean in Chinese?

A. 偏愛 B. 抗拒 C. 過敏 D. 暴露

3.What can we know about vitamin D according to the passage?

A. It comes from sunlight. B. It helps people live longer.

C. Sunlight prevents its production. D. It does harm to people’s health.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Women should get enough sunlight in pregnancy.

B. Children born under Aquarius are cleverer than those born in autumn.

C. People born in May will live longer than those born in October.

D. Professor Russell Foster is interested in star signs and believes in them.

（題文）—He’s never seen to eat so much food, ?

— , he always eats a little.

A. has he, Yes B. isn’t he, Yes

C. has he, No D. is he, No

D 【解析】 句意：- 他從來沒有被見到過吃這么多的食物，不是嗎？-沒有見到過，他總是吃一點(diǎn)。第一空需要針對主句做出反義疑問句，原句表達(dá)肯定含義，故反義疑問句使用肯定形式，排除B，原句中的He’s 的完整形式是He is，與seen構(gòu)成了被動(dòng)語態(tài)表示“被看到…”，所以反義疑問句寫is he。答句中說他總是吃得很少，所以他“很少”被看到吃得多的，表達(dá)的是否定意義，用No來回答，故選C。 ...
