    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    A four-year study of 200 college students found that those who drink heavily and started drinking at an early age demonstrate poor decision-making skills, just like long-term, chronic(长期的) alcoholics. Researchers at the University of Missouri-Columbia believe early onset binge drinking negatively affects psychological development.
    The researches examined college students between the ages of 18 and 22. After three years, they tested them using the Iowa Gambling Test, which measures the tendency to make immediate (disadvantageous) or long-term (advantageous) choices.
    Based on the students’ reported drinking habits, they were grouped into four categories: low binge drinkers, moderate binge drinkers, increasing binge drinkers and stable or high binge drinkers.
    “Students in the stable or high alcohol use category, who had longer histories of binge drinking, made riskier and less advantageous choices, which reflect problems associated with planning for the future,” the researchers reported.
    The study also found that only students who started binge drinking when they were younger showed impairment on the task.
    “There is reason to think that heavy binge drinking during adolescence, when the brain is still rapidly developing, may have some negative legacy (遗传) on psychological development,” said Kenneth J. Sher of MU’s Midwest Alcoholism Research Center in a news release. “The interesting thing is that if we were to just look at binge drinkers and how impaired they are in the decision-making process as juniors, we’d really be obscuring(使模糊) the important issue, which is how long they’ve been binge drinkers and / or how early they started.”
    【小题1】What does the passage mainly tell us?

    A．Four categories of heavy drinkers.
    B．Heavy drinking affects college students.
    C．Early onset binge drinkers are poor at decision-making.
    D．People drinking at an early age will develop into binge drinkers.
    【小题2】Which category would make the most disadvantageous choice?

    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
         Electronic devices (装置) are changing the way people listen to music. But studies show the devices may
    be causing hearing loss in many people. Some experts say people may be playing them too loud and too long.
    And experts say sound levels on these devices need to be set lower.
         Researchers did a study with three hundred high school students and one thousand adults. They were
    asked about their use of portable music devices. Forty percent of the students and adults said they set the
    sound levels at high on their players. But students were twice more likely to play the mu- sic at a very loud
    volume (音量). More than half of the students said they would probably not limit their listening time.
         The study found that more than half of the students and less than forty percent of the adults had at least
    one kind of hearing loss. Some reported difficulty hearing parts of a discussion between two people. Others
    said they had to raise volume controls on a television or radio to hear it better. And, some experienced ringing
    in their ears or other noises.
         Hearing experts say part of the problem is the listening equipment people are using. They say large
    earphones that cover the whole ear are probably safer than the smaller earbuds (耳塞) that come with most
    music players. Hearing loss may not be obvious for years, however, once it happens, there is few chance of
    curing.     About thirty million Americans have some hearing loss. One third of them lost their hearing as a result
    of loud noises.
         The American Speech-language-Hearing Association is working with companies and government officials
    on setting rules for use of portable music devices. The group says the best way to protect your hearing is
    to _____, limit listening time and use earphones that block out foreign noises.
    1. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.) 
       _______________________________________________________________________________________ 
    2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? Compared to adults, teenagers are 
        more likely to turn up their players.
        ______________________________________________________________________________________
    3. Please fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (Please
        answer within 10 words.) 
        ______________________________________________________________________________________
    4. What trouble will happen to a person if he suffers some hearing loss? (Please give at least two examples
        mentioned in the passage, each within 15 words.
        ______________________________________________________________________________________
    5. Translate the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph into Chinese.
        ______________________________________________________________________________________
