Directions: Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage. (2011/6 真题)

The popular notion that older people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth, scientists said yesterday. While elderly people 47 to sleep for fewer hours than they did when they were younger, this has a(n) 48 effect on their brain's performance and they would benefit from getting more, according to research.

Sean Drummond, a. psychiatrist (心理医生), said older people are more likely to suffer from broken sleep, while younger people are better at sleeping 49straight through the night.

More sleep in old age, however, is 50 with better health, and most older people would feel better and more 51 if they slept for longer periods, he said. “The ability to sleep in one chunk ( 整块时间 ) overnight goes down as we age but the amount of sleep we need to 52 well does not change,” Dr Drummond told the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference in San Diego.

“It's53 a myth that older people need less sleep. The more healthy an older adult is, the more they sleep like they did when they were 54 . Our data suggest that older adults would benefit from 55 to get as much sleep as they did in their 30s. That's 56 from person to person, but the amount of sleep we had at 35 is probably the same amount as we need at 75.”

So many people use the cell phone so frequently every day. But 47 little is certain about the health effects of its use. Manufacturers 48 that cell phones meet government standards for safe radio-frequency radiation( 辐射 ) emission( 发出 ), but enough studies are beginning to document a possible 49 in rare brain tumor(肿瘤), headaches and behavioral disorders in children to cause concern. So far, the evidence isn't 50 on whether the use of cell phones 51to any increased risk of cancer.

In a new trial, researchers asked 47 volunteers to 52 in a project to measure glucose(葡萄糖)consumption in the brain by scanning the brain to see how cells use energy. For both

50-minute scans, the volunteers had a cell phone 53 to each ear. During the first scan, the devices were turned off, but for the second scan, the phone on the right ear was 54 on and received a recorded-message call, although the volume was muted( 消音)so (that)the noise wouldn't bias(产生误差) the results. The results of the second scan showed that the 55 of the brain nearest to the device had higher rates of glucose consumption than the rest of the brain. The study shows that cell phones can change brain activity, and 56 a whole new avenue for

scientific inquiry(探索), though it doesn't say anything about whether cell-phone radiation can cause cancer.

A)conclusive B)contributes C)derive D)expresses

E)fixed F)immensely G)increase H)maintain

The United States has historically had higher rates of marriage than those of other industrialized countries. The current 47 marriage rate in the United States—about 9 new marriages for every 1,000 people in a year—is substantially higher than in other industrialized countries. However, marriage is no longer as 48 as it was several decades ago.

The proportion of American adults who are married 49 from 72 percent in 1970 to 60 percent in 2002. This does not mean that large numbers of people will remain 50 throughout their lives. Throughout the 20th century, about 90 percent of Americans married at some period in their lives. Experts 51 that about the same proportion of today’s young adults will eventually marry.

The timing of marriage has varied 52 over the past century. In 1995 the average age of women at their first marriage was 25. The 53 age of men was about 27. Men and women marry for the first time at an average of five years later than people did in the 1950s. Besides, young adults of the 1950s married younger than any 54 generation did in U.S. history. To day’s later age of marriage is in line with （与... 一致） the age of marriage between 1890 and 1940. Moreover, a 55 proportion of the population was married (95 percent) during the 1950s than

at any time before and after. Experts do not agree on why the “ma rriage rush（高峰期）” of the late 1940s and 1950s occurred, but most social scientists believe it represented a response to the return of peaceful life and 56 after 15 years of severe economic depression and war.
