Answer 1

分析 文章大意：本文介紹了世界上壽命最長的法國老太太，她活了120歲零238天，成為有記錄以來最長壽的人．Jeanne Calment，a French woman，became a record breaker on 17October，1995，when at the age of 120years and 238days，she became the longest-lived human being on record．A Japanese man died in 1986at the age of 120years and 237days．
Jeanne Calment lives in a small old people's home in the south of France； her husband，her only child and her grandson have all died．She is nearly blind and deaf and is always in a wheelchair，but her doctor describes her as being more like a 90-year-old woman in good health than someone of 120．She still has a lively sense of humor．When asked on her 120^th birthday what she expected of the future，she replied：A very short one．She also remarked that she thought the good Lord had forgotten all about her．
So what is the key to a long life？According to some doctors，diet，exercise and no smoking are the three important factors．Jeanne Calment has followed two of the tips．She has always eaten a healthy diet，and she used to do exercise every day until she broke her leg at the age of 115．However，until recently she drank two glasses of strong red wine a day，and she does smoke （now only a little）．Besides，Jeanne Calment might have got very good genes from her parents．Her father lived to the age of 94and her mother to 86．
A local lawyer bought her house when she was 80under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death．It must have seemed a good move at the time，but so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house．Every year on her birthday，Jeanne Calment sends him a card saying：Sorry，I'm still alive!

解答 25．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章整體內(nèi)容及第二段第三句 She still has a lively sense of humor 可知這位老太太仍然非常高興也很有幽默感，因此答案選D．
26．B 詞義猜測題．根據(jù)此單詞所在句子的前面部分 A local lawyer bought her house…under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death 可知當(dāng)?shù)氐囊晃宦蓭熃o老太太買了一套房子，每年會付給老太太一些錢，直到她死去，由此可知這在當(dāng)時是不小的一筆錢，因此答案選B，deal作名詞，意為"（一筆） 交易； 許多"．
27．A 推理判斷題．文章倒數(shù)第 2 段第 1 句說 …so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house，而老太太本人也感到不好意思，由此可知答案選A．
