參考答案

1.biochemicalproblemsbiochemicalproblems解析：第1個小標題TypesofDepression下Biochemicaldepression部分的第l、2句：Doctorsaren'tsurewhy，butsomepeopledevelopabiochemicallybaseddepressionsometimeduringmidlife．It'slikelythatthistypeofdepressioniscausedbybiochemicalproblemswithinthebrain.空白處需要名詞性成分。原文第2句的thistypeofdepression指的是第1句中提到的人到中年因為生理原因而患上的抑郁癥。題目中的resultfrom和原文的iscausedby均表示因果關(guān)系，而且都是先果后因，題目要求填入病因，故答案在by之后。

2.moresinglechildren/firstbornsmoresinglechildren/firstborns解析：本題涉及到母親的年齡與肥胖流行的關(guān)系，從而將題目出處定位到MatureMums部分。該部分第三段末句提到，母親年齡變大和獨生子女的增多可能也導(dǎo)致了肥胖流行，因此可以獲知答案是獨生子女的增多。

3.four-yearscholarshipsfour-yearscholarships解析：根據(jù)題干中的信息詞innovativeproposal和25,000定位到第三個小標題下第二段下的第一條，可知專家提出的創(chuàng)新提議之一就是為兩萬五千名攻讀數(shù)學(xué)、理科或工程學(xué)學(xué)位的學(xué)生，以及在全國考試中選拔出來的學(xué)生提供四年的獎學(xué)金。

4.firstnamesareseldomused

5.writingmathematicsandastronomywriting,mathematicsandastronomy解析：該題是對文章最后一部分的總結(jié)，倒數(shù)第三段提到"ButtheMayascoulddomorethanjustmakebuildingsandworksofart．”然后該段主要介紹了writing，接下來的兩段分別介紹了瑪雅人在mathematics和astronomy方面的成就。

6.B解析：細節(jié)題。從第二部分最后一段"thewater-richsouthoftensuffersfromseasonaldroughts，which

7.theimpactithastheimpactithas解析：題干中的Beijing2008與原文中的theGames同指；題干中的Beijing和原文中的hostcity同指；題干中的itisover和原文中的thetorchisextinguished表示的都是“奧運會結(jié)束”。故本題應(yīng)填入theimpactithas。

8.B解析：細節(jié)題。根據(jù)歐元設(shè)計部分中提及，歐盟(EuropeanCommission)被指定來設(shè)計歐元標記符號。

9.C解析：該題信息文章中未提及。

10.getinshapeforchangegetinshapeforchange解析：本題空白處問“從早期預(yù)感到轉(zhuǎn)折實際發(fā)生的期間是什么時間”。文中涉及“早期預(yù)感到轉(zhuǎn)折實際發(fā)生的期間”在第十四段，提到“從早期預(yù)感到轉(zhuǎn)折實際發(fā)生的期間是很寶貴的。正如運動員要為比賽而調(diào)整到最佳狀態(tài)一樣，這一期間也是你為改變做準備的調(diào)整期”。因此，答案應(yīng)為“getinshapeforchange”。

11.C解析：文章第五段最后一句話雖然就英國的出生
