12.If you are a male and you are reading this,congratulations:you are a survivor.According to statistics,you are more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer than a woman,and nine times more likely to die of AIDS.Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term,about 78years for men in Australia,you will die on average five years before a woman.
There are many reasons for this,men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke,but perhaps more importantly,men don't go to the doctor.
"Men aren't seeing doctors as often as they should,"says Dr.Gullotta,"This is particularly so for the over-40s,when diseases tend to strike."Gullotta says a healthy man should visit the doctor every year or two.For those over 45,it should be at least once a year.
According to a recent survey,95%of women aged between 15and early 40s see a doctor once a year,compared to 70% of men in the same age group.
"A lot of men think they are invincible (不可战胜的)"Gullotta says"They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think'Dear me,if it could happen to him,…'"
Then there is the ostrich (鸵鸟)approach,"Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know,"says Dr.Ross Cartmill."Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they service their bodies,"Cartmill says.He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups.Regular check-ups for men would inevitably(不可避免地) place stress on the public purse.Cartmill says."But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases.Besides,the final cost is far greater."

68.What does the author state is the most important reason men die five years earlier on average than women?C
A.Men drink and smoke much more than women.
B.Men aren't as cautious as women in face of danger.
C.Men don't seek medical care as often as women.
D.Men are more likely to suffer from fatal diseases.
69.Which of the following best completes the sentence"Dear me,if it could happen to him,…"in paragraph5?D
A.I should avoid playing golf.
B.I should consider myself lucky.
C.it would be a big misfortune.
D.it could happen to me,too.
70.What does Dr.Ross Cartmill mean by"the ostrich approach"in paragraph6?C
A.A new treatment for certain psychological problems.
B.Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved.
C.Unwillingness to find out about one's disease because of fear.
D.A casual attitude towards one's health conditions.
71.What does Cartmill say about regular check-ups for men?B
A.They may increase public expenses.
B.They will save money in the long run.
C.They may cause psychological stress on men.
D.They will enable men to live as long as women.

20.There are about 15,000-20,000 species of butterflies all over the world.They can be found on every continent except Antarctica.
To go to sleep,butterflies look for a safe place like the underside of a leaf or a branch,for example.Most butterflies sleep alone,but there are also species sleeping in groups.Poisonous butterflies have a particular smell that probably protects them better when they sleep together.It is also useful not to change the group'S sleeping place because a predator(食肉动物)who attacked a poisonous butterfly one time won't do this again.There is only a limited number of predators in an area so there is only a limited number to"educate"if the sleeping place stays the same.
One species from Costa Rica whose scientific name is Marpesia berania sleeps in groups on a leaf.If one butterfly of the group is disturbed,it opens its wings and touches its neighbors.Being touched,they open their wings as well and so the whole group is informed about the danger and Can escape together.
The speed of their flight depends on the way the butterfly flies:Blues and Whites normally have speeds under 8 km/h,the speed of Fritillaries is between 16 to 40 km/h and some Skippers reach speeds up to 60 km/h.
Besides warning and scaring predators with colors butterflies fly in a special way.The direction of their amazing flight is hard to predict.When they hear the sounds of a bat,the ones flying at night start a zigzag(之字形)flight in all directions:up and down,left and right.So it gets hard for the bat to catch them.
In the dark when colors don't function,some poisonous butterflies make clicking noises to warn bats that they are poisonous.Of course other species copy this sound to produce the protective effect,too.
56.The reason why butterflies don't change the group'S sleeping place is thatB
A.a predator would attack them again in the same place
B.few other predators would attack them in this fixed area
C.the predators would know they are poisonous
D.there are more predators in other places
57.The author takes Marpesia berania for example in order toC.
A.introduce where butterflies sleep at night
B.tell us how butterflies work together to defeat predators
C.introduce how butterflies sleeping in groups escape from danger
D.tell us that Marpesia berania is the most clever butterflies
58.What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?D
A.The different flight speeds of the butterfly.
B.Which butterfly flies at the highest speed.
C.Most butterflies fly at a low speed.
D.The different way the butterfly flies.
59.It'S hard for bats to catch butterflies because butterflies flyD.
A.much faster than bats   
B.aimlessly
C.at different speeds
D.in a zigzag way
60.Some poisonous butterflies warn predators in the dark byC.
A.scaring predators with colors
B.touching their neighbors with their wings
C.making clicking noises
D.copying bats'sound to confuse predators.

7.Honeybees are disappearing for unknown reasons around the United States.Last winter,bees disappeared from 23percent of American beekeeping businesses.Causes of the phenomenon,however,have remained a mystery.
Now,scientists from several universities and the United States Department of Agriculture say they have a possible explanation for the bee decline.It is a little-known virus called Israeli acute--paralysis virus (IAPV).The virus kills bees.Researchers in Israel first described it in 2004,but until now,bee experts haven't paid much attention to it.
When trying to find out why the bees were disappearing,a research team at Columbia University studied bee colonies ( 群体),some with and the others without decline.The research turned up large numbers of two types of fungi (真菌) once suspected of causing the bee decline.The research results,however,showed that the fungi were almost as common in colonies without a decline as they were in colonies with a decline.The researchers concluded that the two fungi probably weren't the cause.
Studies of the presence of IAPV,however,showed more interesting information.In those studies,done by a team at Pennsylvania State University in University Park,the virus showed up in 83percent of samples from colonies with symptoms (症状).Only five percent of samples from symptomless colonies had it.
Scientists still don't know whether IAPIV can single--handedly cause the bee decline.They believe that even if the virus is making colonies sick,it could have a partner in crime.It's possible,for instance,that insects or chemicals in the environment weaken bees,making them more likely to catch IAPV.
Scientists are still trying to figure out how IAPV came to the United States.The United States currently allows bee products to be imported from Canada,Australia,and New Zealand.If it turns out that this trade is spreading disease,the rules might eventually change.

46.According to the passage,IAPV is a virus thatA.
A.hasn't attracted much attention
B.well-known to doctors and scientists
C.was first found by Austrian researchers
D.is dangerous to animals and human beings
47.The underlined word decline in the second paragraph most probably meansB.
A.disease   B.decrease   C.secret   D.growth
48.From the third and fourth paragraphs,we know researchers draw their conclusions by means ofC.
A.calculating  B.examining  C.comparing  D.investigating
49.The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph probably meansC.
A.the virus could also cause other damages
B.there must be something that is the real cause
C.IAPV is not the only cause for the bee decline
D.the virus may be caused by the polluted environment
50.What still remains unknown to American scientists according to the passage?D
A.How and why to kill IAPV.
B.How to change the rules of the bee products trade.
C.Whether bee products should be imported.
D.How IAPV came to America.
