16、cal condition.答案与题解：1.D 文章第二段明确提到，肺癌的新趋势就是“病人更年轻，尤其是妇女”。2.B文章第三段说到，“肺癌排在乳腺癌之后，发病率第二高”，可见乳腺癌才是最常见的疾病。3.A文章第七段说到，“60%以上患肺癌的妇女都长期接触厨房油烟并主诉眼睛和喉咙疼痛难受”。4.B 文章倒数第七段明确说到，“当妇女们知道厨房油烟可以致癌时都很惊讶。5.D 回答此题时，首先要注意倒数第五段中的两处文字，即had few links to和was closely related to，其中link to意为connection with，而relate to则意为connect w
17、ith，都是“联系”的意思，只是few和closely的差别却很大。few和little一样，都是具有否定意义的词，意为 “很少，几乎没有，只是后面的名词分别为可数名词和不可数名词而已;它们与a few和a little不同，a few和a little具有肯定意义，意为“有几个”和“有一点”，后面的名词同样分别为可数名词和不可数名词。如果这一点明白了，也就很容易回答这道题了第十八篇Exercise Can Replace Insulin for Elderly DiabeticsMost older people with so-called typediabetes could stop

46、ently and easily cryB they are in infants or in adolescent periodC they are often neglected by their parents or friendsD thev often try their best to meet the requirements from their parents答案与题解：1.C 文中第一段提到了虐待儿童是一全球问题，无法获得中低收入国家中儿童受虐数字资料，第二段开头提到了儿童受虐数字难以统计的另外一个原因，即研究方法的差异性，只有专业统计人员是否缺乏没有提及，因此答案为C。2
47、.B文中第二段对数字有明确说明。3.B 文中第三段指出每年15岁以下儿童死亡大概在31，000人，该数字大大低估了实际情况，是因为有相当多的由于受虐而导致死亡的儿童被归因为摔死、烧死、淹死。没有明确指出腹泻，因此可推断出该题答案为B。4.A 文中提到虐待儿童会导致其出现身体上的疾病，包括神经系统，免疫系统，大脑发育，以及成年后出现的疾病，但那没有提到是否会对其记忆力产生影响，因此，答案为A。5.D参见注释第三十四篇Be Alert to1 Antimicrobial ResistanceThe ability of micro-organisms to find ways to evade the action of the drugs used to cure the infections they cause is increasingly recognized as a global public health issue.
