本文是一篇议论文。作者围绕“努力工作有益于身体健康”这一论点进行展开。 体裁为纯议论性的完形填空题也是高考命题的一大趋势，对考生来说，这类试题有一定的难度。解题时不仅要注意句子中的词语搭配，更要从整体上把握文章的结构，按照文章的行文逻辑进行合理的推断。如本题中的第2、6、7、12、13、19小题。
解题指导：
1. B 从文章的主题句Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women.分析，可得出“职业妇女比家庭主妇更健康”。A项为语法错误。 2. C 根据上一句进行逻辑推理，“没有工作的人比有工作的人身体差”。
3. A 从结构上分析，在宾语从句中又有一个时间状语从句。意为“研究表明当失业率上升1%，死亡率相应上升2%。”
4. A 动词短语意义的区别是完形填空的常考点，考生须平时注意积累。come down to“归结为”；equal to“等于”；add up to “合计”；amount to“总共到；相当于”。
5. D 此题的干扰性较大，需从意义和结构两方面进行分析，A项“不填”似乎有可能，但从结构上推敲，显然不符“keep sb. + adj.”结构；再从意义上分析，可排除B、C项。此题的意义为“使人们免遭孤独和寂寞”。
6.D 从下文…and lonely when they have nothing to do进行逻辑推理，意义为“没事做的人会感到unhappy, worried and lonely”。
7.A 从上下文逻辑上判断。“最快乐的人是那些大忙人。”
8. D 从下一句分析，意为“工作当作人与现实生活联系的桥梁”。 9. B 从意义上判断，“通过工作人们相互联系（接触）”。 10. A means“意味着”。
11. D 从意义上分析，A、C项不符合上下文的逻辑关系，B项过于严重，还达不到“死亡”的程度。
12. A 从文章的篇章结构上分析，上文讲述的是工作给人们带来的益处，下文还是讲述这方面的内容，属“递进”的关系，而不是“转折”的关系。所以选A。
13. B 从意义上判断，此题必须同前面的a sense of fulfillment（充实感）意义相类似。所以选B项，意为“成就感”
14. C 从下文的his writing可判断出答案。
15. C 根据医生从事的工作性质可断定是“成功地为病人动手术”。 16. B “老师看到学生成长”，主要表示在知识、阅历上的长进。
17. D beyond words“无法用语言表达”；in a word“简言之”；without a word “二话没说”； at a word“反应迅速地，立即”。
18. A 从语法结构上分析，conclusion之后为一个同位语从句，根据同位语从句的特点，that不能省略，也不能用which和what。
19. D 从全文意义上分析，“工作越多，人就会越高兴、越健康”。而不是“越寂寞、越虚弱”。从句子结构上分析，此题含有一个“the more … ,the more…”句型。
20. A 从句子结构上判断，此句为三个谓语动词并列。同时注意修饰动词要用副词well，不能用形容词good。

Ed Viesturs grew up in Rockford, Illinois, where the tallest thing on the horizon was the water tower. But on Thursday, Viesturs became the only American to climb to the top of the world's 14 highest mountains.
His last hike was up Mount Annapurna, in Asia's snowcapped Himalayas. At 26,545 feet, its peak is the 10th highest in the world. It is the mountain that inspired him to start climbing. \climb it. There are threatening avalanches (雪崩) and ice falls that protect the mountain.\ In high school, Viesturs read French climber Maurice Herzog's tale of climbing the icy Annapurna. Herzog's story was of frostbite (冻伤) and difficulty and near-death experiences. Viesturs was hooked right away.
Viesturs got his start on Washington's Mount Rainier in 1977, guiding hikes in the summer. Fifteen years ago, he set out to walk up to the world's highest peaks. Finally, he's done.
The pioneering climber talks about mountains as if they were living creatures that should be treated with respect. \mountain will let you climb it,\we're here at the right time, under the right circumstances, they allow us to go up, and allow us to come down.\
What's next for a man who can't stop climbing? \kind of kick back and enjoy the summer,\world's 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on yet another adventure. 1. What record has Ed Viesturs set?

Although hurricane season doesn't begin until June 1, a Pacific storm has already struck. El Salvador, which was ruined by a Caribbean storm in 1995, was hit by Hurricane Adrian on Friday. This is the first Pacific-born hurricane to ever reach land in this Central American country.
Some 14,000 people left from the western coast of El Salvador. The storm weakened as it crossed land, heading east. Heavy rains created deadly flooding problems in the hurricane's wake.

Adrian is the first Pacific storm of the season. It reported maximum continuous winds of 75 miles per hour, the minimum strength of a hurricane. A Category 3 hurricane, Adrian also caused damage and flooding in Honduras. It is expected to break up before reaching the Caribbean Sea on the eastern coast of Central America.
Hurricane season typically begins June 1 and lasts through November 30. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has predicted seven to nine hurricanes for the 2005 season.
\land,\strike the U.S. this season.
Last year, six of nine hurricanes reached Category 3 strength or higher. Four of those hit Florida within a six-week period. Altogether, Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne caused more than $40 billion in damage in the Sunshine State.
This year's forecast is based on ocean temperatures. Warmer temperatures produce more tropical storms, which can then turn into hurricanes.
\said Frank Lepore of the National Hurricane Center. 5. Which of the following is the 2005 first hurricane?
A. Charley. B. Adrian. C. Jeanne. D. Frances. 6. How many countries struck by the hurricane are mentioned in the text? A. Six. B. Nine. C. Five. D. Three. 7. We can infer that warmer ocean temperatures ______.
A. have nothing to do with the hurricane B. cause less hurricane
C. are more likely to cause the hurricanes D. do a lot of damage to the areas along the coast
8. The passage implies that _______.
A. hurricane season comes early this year
B. every hurricane formed in oceans could cause great damage to the land C. hurricane often comes in winter and spring D. tropical storm is more severe than hurricane

It's not quite a rat. Nor is it a squirrel, or a mouse. It's definitely a rodent (啮齿目动物), and it's also a brand-new family of mammals.
The locals of the Southeast Asian country of Laos call the creature a kha-nyou (ga-nyou). The kha-nyou have long body hair, short legs, and a hairy tail less thick than a squirrel's. They're vegetarians living in the rocky hills of Laos, and they come out at night, but for more information, you'll have to ask the Lao people.
\had never seen before,\Society. Timmins was working in Laos to stop people from selling endangered animals when he spotted the species. Criminals who trade illegal wildlife can make a lot of money, but they also push the animals closer to disappearing from the planet.
The kha-nyou live in karsts, or rough rock. Mark Robinson, a scientist with the World Wildlife Foundation, set out with Lao villagers to find a few more of the rodents for study. They climbed onto a karst, trapped with rice, and caught several.

\all we know, this could be the last remaining animal family left to be discovered.\
It's a big deal to discover an entirely new family of animals. Humans, for instance, belong to the same family as great apes, chimpanzees, and gorillas. So even though kha-nyous look like rats, they're really very different. The last time scientists discovered a new family of mammals may have been in the 1970s, when they found new bats in Thailand.
Timmins seems to have the gift for finding new animals in Laos—he discovered a new species of rabbit there in 1999.
Scientists call the kha-nyou Laonastes aenigmamus, which means \lives among the stones.\\
9. Which of the following is not the name for this new creature?
A. Karsts. B. Kha-nyou. C. rock rats. D. Laonastes aenigmamus. 10. Which of the following cannot describe the new species of rodent?
A. They live among the rocky hills of Laos. B. They live on meat of other animals. C. They look like rats but are of different kind.D. They are of the latest discovery of a new species.
11. Which of the following is the last discovery of new species of animal except the rodent? A. A new kind of bats. B. Great apes.
C. A new kind of squirrel. D. A new kind of rabbit. 12. It implies in the passage that ______.
A. finding a new animal family in Southeast Asia is easy
B. finding a new animal family in modern time is extremely rare C. in Southeast Asia new species of animals are often discovered D. animals that look like the same are of the same family
参考答案及详解
(A)
这是一篇人物类短文。本文介绍了登山之王Viesturs的登山成就。他是唯一已经成功地征服了14座世界最高峰的美国人。
1. B 细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句话“But on Thursday, Viesturs became the only American to climb to the world’s 14 highest mountains.”可知：Viesturs已经成功地征服了14座世界最高峰的美国人。
2. C 词义猜测题。根据上文介绍的Viesturs的登山成就推测，hooked意为“感兴趣的”。如果是“被吓倒、泄气或不安”，就不可能取得那么辉煌的成就，显然，这几项不符文意。
3. B 段落主旨题。此段首句“The pioneering climber talks about mountains as if they were living creatures that should be treated with respect.”就是本段的主题，下文Viesturs所说的话是用来说明这一主题的。
4. C 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句“But for a man who’s climbed the world’s 14 tallest mountains, he will probably soon set off on yet another adventure”可得答案。
