填空题Why Are Women More Vulnerable to Broken Hearts? 0. Women are a lot more likely to suffer a broken heart than men, researchers say. The good news is that it probably won't kill you. 1. In the first national study of its kind, researchers at the University of Arkansas looked at rates of "broken heart syndrome"—when a sudden shock or prolonged stress causes heart attack-like symptoms or heart failure—and found that it overwhelmingly affects women. Women are at least seven times more likely than men to suffer the syndrome, and older women are at greater risk than younger ones, according to data presented Wednesday at the American Heart Association conference in Orlando. 2. Broken heart syndrome can happen in response to shocking or suddenly emotional events—both positive ones like winning the lottery, or negative ones like a car accident or the unexpected death of a loved one. A flood of stress hormones and adrenaline causes part of the heart to enlarge temporarily and triggers symptoms that can look like heart attack: chest pain, shortness of breath, irregular heart rhythm. The difference is that the factors that would normally cause heart attack, such as a blocked artery, aren't present. Most sufferers usually recover within a week or two, but in rare cases—about 1%—people die of the condition. 3. Doctors have long known about broken heart syndrome—first described by Japanese researchers two decades ago- and that it seemed to occur mostly in women. So, Dr. Abhishek Deshmukh, a cardiologist at the University of Arkansas who has treated women with broken heart syndrome, became curious about just how gender-specific the condition was. Using a federal database that included data from roughly 1,000 hospitals, Deshmukh found 6,229 cases of broken heart syndrome in 2007. Of those, only 671—just under 11%—were in men. He found that, overall, women had about 7.5 times the risk of broken heart syndrome as men; in people under 55, women were at 9.5 times greater risk than men. Women over 55 were also three times more likely to suffer broken heart syndrome than younger women. 4. Researchers don't know what causes the gender disparity, but they have some ideas. One theory is that hormones play a role. Another is that men have more adrenalin receptors on cells in their hearts than women do, "so maybe men are able to handle stress better" and the chemical surge it releases. Deshmukh said. 5. About 10% of sufferers will have a second episode at some point, but most return to full heart function without permanent damage or need for follow-up treatment. So, it looks like the way to mend a broken heart is what Mom always said: just give it time.

填空题Part 2 Questions 9-18 ·Read the following passages and answer questions 9-18. 1. The Palace Museum, known as the Forbidden City, was the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the early 5th century, the capital of the Ming dynasty was moved from Nanjing to Beijing. Twenty four emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties ruled in the Forbidden City. The last dynasty fell in 1911, but Emperor Puyi still lived in the inner court. It was not until 1925 that the complex was converted into a museum. Since then the palace has been open to the public. 2. The large-scale construction involved 100,000 artisans and 1,000,000 civilians. The material needed for building the palace came from all over the country. In the Qing dynasty, the timber came mostly from Sicbuan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan provinces. The gold brick was made in Suzhou. The glazed tiles were made in Sanjiadian, Beijing. 3. The Palace Museum is located in the center of Beijing, covering an area of 72 hectares. The floor square is 163,000 square meters. It is 961m long from south to north, and 753m wide from east to west. 4. According to the calculations made in 1973, there are more than 90 courtyards, 980 buildings and 8704 room units inside the Forbidden City. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the number of building varied, and so there was no fixed number of rooms. 5. The astronomers in ancient China divided the main fixed stars into three Yunan. Ziweiyuan is the residence of the heavenly emperor, it is in the middle and also called Zi palace. The feudal emperors call themselves the sons of heaven and called the palace they lived in the symbol of Zi palace in heaven. The palace where the emperor resided was completely forbidden for the common people. So that is why it is called the Forbidden City. In the 1992 comments on Beijing attractions in World Travel Wonders, experts commented that the Forbidden City was the largest, best preserved palace complex remaining in the world today. The Forbidden City was placed on the World Cultural Heritage List by UNESCO in 1987.

填空题Part 4 Questions 26-45 ·Read the following passage and decide which answer bestfits each space. ·For questions 26-45, mark one letter A, B, C or D on the Answer Sheet. The "standard of living" of any country means the (26) person's share of the goods and services which the country produces. A country's standard of living, therefore depends (27) and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in this (28) is not money, for we do not live on money (29) on things that money can buy: "goods" such as food and clothing, and "services" such as (30) and "entertainment". A country's capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors, most of which have an effect (31) one another. Wealth depends (32) a great extent upon a country's natural resources. Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have a (33) soil and a favorable climate; other regions (34) none of them. Next to natural resources (35) the ability to turn them to use. China is perhaps as well off as the USA in natural resources, but suffered for many years from (36) and external wars, and for this and other reasons was incapable (37) her resources. Sound and (38) political conditions, and freedom from foreign invasion, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, and to produce more wealth than another country (39) well served by nature but less well ordered. A country's standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and (40) within its own borders, but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade. For example, Britain's wealth in foodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much (41) if she had to depend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplus manufactured goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products that would (42) be lacking. A country's wealth is, therefore, much (43) by its manufacturing capacity, (44) that other countries can be found ready to (45) its manufactures.

Zoology on (30) hand, deals with animals, those organisms that cannot manufacture their own food and are thus dependent (31) plants for their food.

For example, both plants and animals need food, water, and warmth for growth, (35) plants can move to (36) those needs only by the slow extraction of their leaves and roots, while animals can move relatively (37) distances in relatively little time.
