How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know? Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease? These days that’s more than an academic question, as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.
There are now more than a thousand genetic（基因的）tests, for everything from baldness to breast cancer, and the list is growing. Question is, do you really want to know what might eventually kill you? For instance, Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson, one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer’（老年痴呆症）.
“If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease, that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious, through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you. It could really mess you up.” Said Dr. Robert Green, a Harvard geneticist.
“Every ache and pain,” Smith suggested, could be understood as “the beginning of the end.”“That ’s right. If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer’s disease, then every time you can’t find your car in the parking lot, you think the disease has started.”
Dr. Green has been thinking about this issue for years. He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer’s. It was thought that people who got bad news would, for lack of a better medical term, freak out. But Green and his team found that there was“no significant difference”between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives. In fact, most people think they can handle it. People who ask for the information usually can handle the information, good or bad, said Green.
71.The first paragraph is meant to__________.
A. ask some questions B. introduce the topic
C. satisfy readers’ curiosity D. describe an academic fact
【答案】B
【解析】通过两个问题引出话题。

A. He is strongly in favor of the present genetic tests.
B. He is more likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease.
C. He believes genetic mapping can help cure any disease.
D. He doesn’t want to know his chance of getting a disease.
【答案】D
【解析】根据第二段Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson, one of the first people to map their entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer’。“James Watson要求如果他的基因表明他有很高的老年痴呆症的可能不要告诉他。”
73.According to Paragraphs 3 and 4, if a person is at a higher genetic risk, it is__________.
A. advisable not to let him know B. impossible to hide his disease
C. better to inform him immediately D. necessary to remove his anxiety
【答案】A
【解析】根据这两个自然段可知，如果你提前被告知你将来可能患某种可怕的疾病会mess you up。
74.The underlined part“freak out”in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to“_________”.
A. break down B. drop out C. leave off D. turn away
【答案】A
【解析】根据下文But的转折，以及no significant difference可知，freak out的意思是A（精神垮掉）。
75.The study led by Dr. Green indicates that people__________.
A. prefer to hear good news B. tend to find out the truth
C. can accept some bad news D. have the right to be informed

In Singapore, most of us love window-shopping while some others enjoy having a picnic at East Coast Park or Changi Beach on sunny days. Singaporeans are never bothered by the occasional thunderstorm. However, we know that if it rains for long continuous periods, there will be more serious effects. Just recently the main shopping street of Orchard Road was flooded and some part of Bukit Timah was impassable to traffic. People reacted by writing in to the newspaper to complain about this! We forget that other countries suffer much worse effects. Elsewhere, heavy tropical（热带的）storms often result in floods that ruin crops especially in Thailand and Malaysia. This in turn usually means that the price of rice and vegetables here in Singapore will rise because we import these products from them. If there is a typhoon or tsunami, thousands of lives are lost too. This happened in Indonesia and Phuket in Thailand in 2004 and it serves to remind us of how Mother Nature can cause great damage.
Weather patterns in general have changed dramatically in recent years. Scientists believe that global warming and the resulting melting of the polar ice-cap has caused the level of the ocean to rise. This in turn causes flooding of low-lying areas in countries where the land is rather flat and some parts of which is below water level. It is believed that human activities have caused Mother Nature to show her extreme anger, so it is now important that we really work together to cut down on harmful activities, for example, illegal logging（伐木）or irresponsible forest-burning to clear land for farming.
56.From Paragraph 1, we can see that most Singaporeans love________.
A. making complaints B. going out for picnics
C. doing window-shopping D. traveling along the coast
【答案】C
【解析】根据第一段第一句可知。
57.What will happen in Singapore if there are floods in its neighboring countries?
A. Heavy tropical storms will follow shortly.
B. The price of rice and vegetables will go up.
C. Many people will write in to the newspaper.
D. More rice and vegetables will be imported.
【答案】B
【解析】根据第一段倒数三，四句可知。热带风暴导致的洪水会毁掉庄稼，新加坡的蔬菜和大米是从这些国家进口的，所以会导致蔬菜，大米的价格上升。
58.The underlined word“it” in Paragraph 2 refers to___________.
A. the arrival of heavy tropical storms
B. the import of rice and vegetables
C. the rising price of rice and vegetables
D. the loss of lives in natural disasters
【答案】D
【解析】上句提到台风和海啸会导致成千上万的人死亡。这在2004年在印度尼西亚和泰国的普吉岛发生过。自然灾害到这人死亡这件事用来提醒我们大自然可以带来巨大损害。
59.Which of the following shows how the low-lying areas are flooded?
a. global warming
b. the rise in ocean level
c. harmful human activities
d. the flooding of low-lying areas
e. the melting of the polar ice-cap
A. c→a→e→b→d B. a→c→e→b→d
C. c→a→b→e→d D. d→a→c→b→e
【答案】A
【解析】根据最后一段可知。
60.What should we do in order not to make Mother Nature angry?
A. Clear more land for farming. B. Reduce harmful human activities.
C. Bring down the price of food. D. Improve the quality of weather.
【答案】B
【解析】根据最后一段It is believed that human activities have caused Mother Nature to show her extreme anger, so it is now important that we really work together to cut down on harmful activities,“人们认为是人类的活动导致了大自然极端愤怒， 因此，现在我们真的应该团结合作减少有害活动。”
