12．Astronauts travelling in space meet forms of radiation that are uncommon on Earth.Some of this radiation has been shown to be harmful to human health.It is linked to cancers and heart problems.Yet a new American study suggests the radiation does not shorten astronauts' lives.
Researchers studied nearly 60 years of health records and other data about male astronauts from the United States.They then compared this data with information about a group of men who are in good health，richer than most Americans and receive good health care-professional athletes.The study found that neither group has higher rates of dying at a young age.In fact，both groups generally live longer than other Americans.
Astronauts are usually well educated，earn more money and are in better physical condition than the average American.Some earlier research has linked being an astronaut to a lower risk of early death，the researchers noted.The findings were reported in the publication Occupational & Environmental Medicine.
Much of the existing research on mortality rates in astronauts has not yet explored the mental and physical demands of this job.There also has not been a lot of research on whether astronauts show what is known as the "healthy worker effect".This effect leads people with employment of any kind to have fewer medical problems than people who are unable to work，said Robert Reynolds.
Reynolds said， "The challenge has always been to understand if astronauts are as healthy as they would be had they been otherwise comparably employed but had never gone to space at all.To do this，we need to find a group that is comparable on several important factors."
（1）How did researchers carry out their study？
A．By doing interviews.
B．By analysing some factors.
C．By comparing different data.
D．By doing experiments in the lab.
（2）What can we learn from the text？
A．All radiation is harmful to human health.
B．Athletes tend to be poorer than most Americans.
C．Healthy worker effect makes working people healthier.
D．Research has explored the mental and physical demands of being astronauts.
（3）What can be inferred from Reynolds' words？
A．Researchers are determined to face the challenge.
B．The research is almost impossible to conduct.
C．Several important factors hold back the research.
D．Astronauts are as healthy as they would be if they haven't been astronauts.
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．Astronauts-healthy or otherwise
B．Astronauts are as healthy as athletes
C．Radiation affects astronauts' health
D．Astronauts-well-educated and earn more组卷：7引用：1难度：0.6 -

14．Mary Wollstonecraft，a famous writer，was born on April 27，1759 in Spitalfields，London.She grew up in difficult family situation.His father was violent and drunken every day.In 1778，she was tired of such a life and decided to take a job as a lady's companion to Sarah Dawson.This proved a difficult experience as she didn't get on well with the old lady.
However，around this time，she made friends with Fanny Blood，who played an important role in widening Mary's ideas.The two became very close and Fanny Blood's death in 1785 was quite a shock to Mary.
For a while，Mary worked as a tutor in a large Irish family.She had a talent for teaching but took a dislike to Lady Kingsborough.To Mary，Kingsborough was not an ideal woman.In Lady Kingsborough，she saw a woman with no real independence，but primarily concerned with appearances and pleasing men.Mary later developed her thoughts on the concept of a good wife.
Mary had a desire to become a writer.Mary returned to London where she met with famous men such as Thomas Paine，William Godwin and Joseph Johnson.In London，she became more aware of new political and philosophical ideas.The late eighteenth century was an era of change.The old "divine rights（王权神受）" of kings was being replaced with greater faith in human reason and liberty.
In 1790，she wrote the Vindication of the Rights of Men.This sought to defend（保卫）the principles of the French Revolution against Edmund Burke's conservative critique（批评）.Shortly after the Vindication of the Rights of Men，Mary wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Women.This was a ground-breaking book，as it proposed women were the equal of men.

19．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Kelsey Golden works in media marketing for a school and usually takes her 5-year-old son，Barrett，around the neighborhood.All too often，they offer help to people in need and the boy becomes increasingly caring and sympathetic，especially to the homeless.
On a rainy Monday morning，Golden was working on the school's annual yearbook on her computer at home.She was transferring photos from her phone to her computer when Barrett started browsing（浏览）her phone.
The boy loves the camera feature on her phone.He likes to look at his reflection，instead of playing games or engaging in other activities on her phone.But this time，Barrett didn't just stare at his reflection.He started pressing the screen，swinging it around like his arm is a roller coaster.
He even mentioned seeing his favorite chain restaurant's mascots（吉祥物）online，which was really unexpected.
Then，Golden received a message that her take-away food order was taking longer than usual—which was unusual，because although she sometimes ordered the food for her two older children's lunches at school，that morning she had packed their lunches.The teacher furthered the confusion when she told Golden that her children were indeed eating their packed lunches at school—no take-away food in sight.
Golden's confusion was deepened when she was playing with Barrett at the gate.But in that moment，a car pulled in.Golden felt more confused—the delivery driver got out a huge chain restaurant's bag which had 31 cheeseburgers!
At first，Golden thought the delivery driver was at the wrong house.Then it occurred to her that Barrett had played her phone that morning，leaving her phone unlocked，so she went back and looked at the phone，only to find an order was placed at that time that he was playing with it."That's crazy!He really did this."
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150左右：
（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
She turned her head to Barrett questioningly._________
The picture of Barrett handing out cheeseburgers spread widely.____________组卷：0引用：1难度：0.5
