9．She asks what happens when physical beauty fades，and how it's possible to age gracefully．

分析 她問(wèn)道，當(dāng)人的外在美褪去時(shí)會(huì)發(fā)生什么，以及人如何會(huì)優(yōu)雅的老去．

解答 答案：fades．
分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，what和how分別引導(dǎo)的為一賓語(yǔ)從句，作動(dòng)詞asks的賓語(yǔ)，在what引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句中包含when引導(dǎo)的一個(gè)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，結(jié)合整句的意思可知，是指當(dāng)人老去，美顏不再的時(shí)候的狀態(tài)；故答案為fades．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 首字母填空題考查的是詞匯的記憶和運(yùn)用能力，平時(shí)要注意積累和運(yùn)用．同時(shí)還要注意提示字母．

19．The common cold is the world's most widespread illness，which is plagues（疫�。� that flesh receives．
The most widespread fallacy（謬誤） of all is that colds caused by cold．They are not．They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person．You catch a cold by coming into contact，directly or indirectly，with someone who already has one．If cold causes colds，it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos（愛(ài)斯基摩人） to suffer from them forever．But they do not．And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes．
During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches（戰(zhàn)壕），cold and wet，showed no increased tendency to catch colds．
In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp（集中營(yíng)），naked and starving，were astonished to find that they seldom had colds．At the Common Cold Research Unit in England，volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time．After taking hot baths，they put on bathing suits，allowed themselves to be with cold water，and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room．Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion．Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose．
If，then，cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds，why are they more frequent in the winter？Despite the most pains-taking research，no one has yet found the answer．One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times，and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on．
No one has yet found a cure for the cold．There are drugs and pain suppressors（止痛片） such as aspirin，but all they do is relieve the symptoms（癥狀）．
41． The writer offeredBexamples to support his argument．
A.4                    B.5                C.6                D.3
42．Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage？C
A．The Eskimos（愛(ài)斯基摩人） do not suffer from colds all the time．
B．Colds are not caused by cold．
C．People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors．
D．A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one．
43． Arctic explorers may catch colds whenD．
A．they are working in the isolated arctic regions
B．they are writing reports in terribly cold weather
C．they are free from work in the isolated arctic regions
D．they are coming into touch again with the outside world
44．Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research UnitA．
A．suffered a lot                         
B．never caught colds
C．often caught colds                     
D．became very strong
45．The passage mainly discussesC．
A．the experiments on the common cold      
B．the cures about the common cold
C．the reason and the way people catch colds  
D．the continued spread of common colds．

17．I was on my way home with a friend yesterday （76）when I found a mobile phone by the roadside．After picking it up，I started searching the contact list and called numbers（77）to see （see） whether I could figure out whose phone it was．（78）Unfortunately （fortunate） the only person who answered the phone didn't recognize the number that I（79）called （call） from．
My friend suggested that we （80）（should） go （go） back to the street and the house in front of （81）which we found the mobile phone．And we did so．I knocked at the door and two young men answered．Neither of them had lost their phones，but as I referred to some names on the contact list，one of them said he also had those names and that it must be the phone of one of their friends．Then，he took the phone and said how wonderful it was that I took the time to find the owner．Afterward，I left without （82）leaving（leave） my name or address．I never consider keeping the phone．（83）Instead，I immediately tried to find the owner．And I believed that was exactly what I would want someone to do if I lost my phone．It couldn't have been （84）better（good）．
