As the plane disappeared behind the trees, Gelinne, a frmer Navy cmmander, realized it was ging t land in the creek (小海湾).

Amng my friends, ne tpic seems t dminate ur cnversatins: bnes. It makes sense, given that 20 percent f American wmen ver 50 have steprsis (骨质疏松) and that mre than half have bne lss. Fr men, the figures are lwer: 4 percent and a third. Wrldwide, ne ut f three wmen ver 50 and ne ut f five lder men will develp a fracture (骨折). Anther reasn fr the endless argument abut bne prblems is mass cnfusin ver hw best t strengthen yur bnes and whether diet really makes a difference.
Diet research is always messy, and study results n nutritin and bne health haven’t been cnsistent. But gradually sme clarity is emerging. As we draw up reslutins fr what t eat, it’s useful t lk at new data n vitamin D. Calcium is the key element fr building bnes, and vitamin D helps t absrb calcium frm the fd we eat, s dctrs ften recmmend D supplements (补充剂) t make up fr age-related bne lss.
But a recent study fund that taking D supplements fr five years did nt reduce the rate f fractures in senirs. That result built n earlier findings, led by the same team, that these supplements d nt imprve bne density (密度). “Fd and sun expsure likely prvide enugh vitamin D fr healthy adults,” says Meryl LeBff, wh led the study.
What des help maintain strng bnes fr all f us? The easy answer is fd high in calcium, such as milk and tfu. Getting it frm fd is best, LeBff says, “because there are s many ther nutrients (营养物质), and yu have a mre cntinuus absrptin than with D supplements.”
The ther key element f bne health invlves calries ut rather than calries in. Weight-bearing exercise stimulates bne frmatin thrughut life. S while fcusing n better nutritinal chices, add mre exercise t yur daily menu.
12. What d the statistics in paragraph 1 emphasize?
A. The seriusness f bne prblems.
B. The cncern abut senir citizens.
C. The cnfusin abut strengthening bnes.
D. The imprtance f having a balanced diet.
13. What des the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 imply?
A. Diet research is n lnger a challenge.
B. We’ve made reslutins t study diets.
C. Findings n bne health prve t be similar.
D. We begin t agree n ways t keep bnes healthy.
14. What can be inferred frm the recent study?
A. Peple can absrb vitamin D in fd easily.
B. The findings g against LeBffs earlier nes.
C. D supplements play a minr rle than expected.
D. Fractures are linked with weight-bearing exercise.
15. What is a suitable title fr the text?

推理判断题。由第一段中的“It makes sense, given that 20 percent f American wmen ver 50 have steprsis (骨质疏松) and that mre than half have bne lss. Fr men, the figures are lwer: 4 percent and a third. Wrldwide, ne ut f three wmen ver 50 and ne ut f five lder men will develp a fracture (骨折). (考虑到20%的50岁以上的美国女性患有骨质疏松症，超过一半的女性患有骨质疏松，这是有道理的。对于男性来说，这一数字更低：4%和三分之一。在全球范围内，三分之一的50岁以上女性和五分之一的老年男性会发生骨折)”可知，骨骼问题很普遍，第一段中的统计数据强调了骨骼问题的严重性。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。由第二段中“Diet research is always messy, and study results n nutritin and bne health haven’t been cnsistent. (饮食研究总是一团糟，关于营养和骨骼健康的研究结果也不一致)”可知，but表转折，前文讲关于营养和骨骼健康的研究结果也不一致，后文应该讲就保持骨骼健康上大家达成了共识，再结合本段中的“s dctrs ften recmmend D supplements (补充剂) t make up fr age-related bne lss (所以医生经常建议补充D来弥补与年龄相关的骨质流失)”可知，划线句表明“我们开始就保持骨骼健康的方法达成一致”。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的“But a recent study fund that taking D supplements fr five years did nt reduce the rate f fractures in senirs. That result built n earlier findings, led by the same team, that these supplements d nt imprve bne density (密度). (但最近的一项研究发现，服用D补充剂五年并不能降低老年人的骨折率。这一结果建立在由同一团队领导的早期发现的基础上，即这些补充剂不能提高骨密度)”和第四段中的“because there are s many ther nutrients (营养物质), and yu have a mre cntinuus absrptin than with D supplements (因为还有很多其他营养素，而且比起D补充剂你更能持续吸收它们)”可推知，D补充剂的作用比预期的要小。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由第三段中的“But a recent study fund that taking D supplements fr five years did nt reduce the rate f fractures in senirs. (但最近的一项研究发现，服用D补充剂五年并不能降低老年人的骨折率)”，第三段中的“Fd and sun expsure likely prvide enugh vitamin D fr healthy adults (食物和阳光照射可能为健康成年人提供足够的维生素D)”，第四段中的“What des help maintain strng bnes fr all f us? The easy answer is fd high in calcium, such as milk and tfu. (什么有助于我们所有人保持强壮的骨骼？简单的答案是高钙食物，比如牛奶和豆腐)”和最后一段中的“S while fcusing n better nutritinal chices, add mre exercise t yur daily menu. (因此，在关注更好的营养选择的同时，在你的日常菜单中增加更多的运动)”可知，文章一项研究表明服用D补充剂五年并不能降低老年人的骨折率，但高钙食物和运动有助于增强骨骼健康，A项“更好骨骼的秘诀”符合文意。故选A项。

根据第一段的前两句“Every New Year, thusands decide they're ging t change their lives. Fewer than 10 percent actually stick with their plans, and that figure is being generus.（每年的新年，成千上万的人决定要改变他们的生活，但实际上只有不到10%的人坚持自己的计划。）”可知，本段在说明多数人难以坚持自己的计划。根据设空处的下一段的第一句“Nt aiming high enugh.（目标不够高）”可知，文章接下来是说明原因。故D项“下面你会发现一些导致你失去动力的常见原因”符合题意。故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据设空的前一句“If yu make gals that are t achievable, yu'll get bred and lse interest.（如果你制定的目标太过容易实现，你会感到无聊，失去兴趣。）”可知，本段在讲述目标过低的情况。F项“理想情况下，你需要在督促自己和设定现实目标之间取得平衡”与空前一句联系紧密，并与下文中的 “push yurself（推动自己）”相呼应，符合语境。故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据文章的结构可知，此空位于段首，应是主题句。根据下文中的“wrrying abut（担忧）”和段中多次提到的“What if（假若……怎么办）”可知，本段介绍的是不确定的情况，故B项“对未来不确定”符合语境。故选B项。
【19题详解】
根据设空前一句“If yu have truble creating a visin , then yu’re at the risk f being aimless thrugh life.（如果你在设立愿景方面有困难，那么你就有可能在生活中漫无目的。）”和设空后一句“Yu can start the prcess f discvering yur life purpse by asking yurself, " What wuld my ideal life lk like?"（你可以通过问自己“我的理想生活是什么样子的？”来开始探索你的人生目标）”可推断，空处是过渡句，承上启下。G项“然而，当你找到自己的目标和激情时，你就会被驱使着去追求卓越” 中的“purpse（目标）”与设空后的“life purpse（人生目标）”相呼应，符合语境。故选G项。
【20题详解】
根据设空前一句“Yu’ll miss ut n pprtunities in life if yu dn't learn hw t manage yur fears.（如果你不学会控制自己的恐惧，你将会错过生活中的机会。）”和设空后一句“One way t manage fear is t lk fr the rt cause f yur fear.（管理恐惧的一种方法是寻找恐惧的根源。）”可推知，设空处应是关于管理或克服恐惧的内容，故选C项“幸运的是，恐惧是可以克服的”符合上下文语境。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】本文为一则新闻报道。9月7日，联合国教科文组织授予85岁的中国著名考古学家樊锦诗荣誉称号，以表彰她为保护敦煌莫高窟所做的贡献。
【36题详解】
考查谓语动词的时态、语态。句意：9月7日，联合国教科文组织授予85岁的中国著名考古学家樊进石荣誉称号，以表彰她为保护敦煌莫高窟所做的贡献。award作动词意为“颁发、授予”，樊锦诗在九月七日被授予表彰，九月七日为具体过去时间，故使用一般过去时的被动语态。主语“樊锦诗”为单数，故填was rewarded。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：被称为“敦煌之女”的她，从60年前的洞穴开始了她的故事。此处call与she构成被动关系，故用过去分词作状语，首字母大写。故填Called。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：1963年，25岁的北京大学毕业生樊有机会在莫高窟工作，这个地方一直是她想去探索的地方。定语从句修饰的是先行词a place。从句中缺主语，因此用that/which指代先行词充当从句主语成分。故填that/which。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：那时候，莫高窟几乎与外界完全隔绝。修饰动词短语were cut ff应用副词cmpletely。故填cmpletely。
【40题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：樊和她的同事呆在洞穴里做研究，复制壁画，尽他们所能保护和修复它们。主句主语为Fan and her cwrkers，谓语动词为stayed和d，从句作d的宾语。从句they culd（d）为避免重复省略了d，因此从句缺少宾语。该句意为“做她们能做的事”或“做她们能做的任何事”，因此用what/whatever来充当从句宾语成分。故填what/whatever。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：参观敦煌的游客越来越多，这可能会损害洞穴，导致里面的壁画褪色。the number f表示“……的数量”，首字母大写。故填The。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：参观敦煌的游客越来越多，这可能会损害洞穴，导致里面的壁画褪色。此处cause与上文句子构成主动关系，指游客增加这件事情造成内部的壁画褪色，使用现在分词表主动。故填causing。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：在20世纪80年代末，樊偶然了解了计算机技术。by chance意为“偶然地”。故填by。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意：经过30多年的探索，敦煌研究院建立了一个数字数据库来保护那里的文物，让敦煌的艺术永世长存，走出洞穴，与世界相遇。前文f为介词，后接名词，因此用explratin，故填explratin。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：经过30多年的探索，敦煌研究院建立了一个数字数据库来保护那里的文物，让敦煌的艺术永世长存，走出洞穴，与世界相遇。结合前后文语境可知为并列关系，应用连词and。故填and 。
