Thefindingswereremarkable:onaverage,bookreaderssurvivedalmosttwoyearslongerthanthosewhodidn'tcrackopenabook”中的almost表述不符；D项文中没有提及。7.Whatdotheunderlinedwords“that'sthecase”probablymean?A．Readingbooksenablespeopletolivelonger.B．Readingissimilartoahealthydietandexercise.C．Readingbooksiscloselyassociatedwithlongevity.D．Readingincreasesbrainconnectivityandsympathy.答案与解析：A考查词义猜测。根据上文中的“booksappeartopromoteasignificantsurvivaladvantage”及上文所述的研究结论“读书可以延长寿命”和该句“Whyorhowthat's_the_caseremainsunclear;theresearchshowedonlyanassociationbetweenbookreadingandlongevity,notacausalrelationship”可知，阅读为什么以及以什么方式延长读者寿命，人们仍然不清楚。据此可知，画线词指代研究表明的“读书可以延长寿命”，故A项正确。8.Wherecanwemostprobablyreadthistext?A．s：//theguardian/life­and­style/family.B．s：//barnesandnoble/b/books/ing­soon.C．s：//washingtonpost/news/to­your­health.D．：//thebookbag.co.uk/Book­Remendations.答案与解析：C考查文章出处。通读全文可知，本文主要说明了阅读和长寿有一定的联系，阅读者的平均寿命比不读书的人长将近两岁，阅读能增强大脑的功能。据此可以判断，本文属于健康话题，因此最可能摘自健康网站，故C项正确。干扰项分析：根据A项s：//theguardian./life­and­style/family可知，该网站介绍家庭生活方式；根据B项s：//barnesandnoble/b/books/ing­soon可知，该网站介绍即将出版的新书；根据D项：//thebookbag.co.uk/Book­Remendations可知，该网站主要推荐书籍。Ⅱ.短文改错(2018·山东六校联考)ThedaybeforeMother'sDay,everybodyaroundmewastalkingaboutwhatwasmostsuitablegifttheywouldbuyfortheirmothers.Buyingflowerswerewhatmoststudentswoulddo.However,Iwantedtodosomethingdifferently.AsthenIlivedinschoolandcouldn'tgobackhomeonMother'sDay,soIdecidedtocallherandsenthermybestwishes.IsearchedtheInternetforsuggestions,whatwereveryuseful,andIreaditcarefully.WhenIcalledmymother,however,Ihadthefeelthatsomeoneelse'swordswouldhavenomeaningtoher.SoIgaveinandjusttoldmymotherIlovedherandthankedhertoallshehadd
