B.In2016,Americansfall29milliontimes.
C.Lastyear,2.8millionAmericanshademergencytreatment.
D.Lastmonth,morethan27,000olderAmericanswerehospitalized.
答案:
A[解析]根据第一段第一句话“In2014,olderAmericansfell29milliontimes,leadingto7millioninjuries,accordingtoareportpublishedlastweek.”可知,据上周的一个报道称:
在2014年,美国老年人跌倒2900万次,造成了700万人受伤。
故选A。
2.Fromthepassagewelearnthatolderadultfalls______.
A.aredecreasing
B.can'tbeavoided
C.mustbetreatedinhospitals
D.usuallyimplytheendofindependence
答案:
D[解析]根据第二段第一句话“'Olderadultfallsareincreasingand,sadly,oftenindicatetheendofindependence,'saidDr.TomFrieden.”可知,越来越多的老年人跌倒,这就意味着其独立生活的结束。
故选D。
3.TheworldfrailerinParagraph5probablymeans______.
A.lonelier
B.weaker
C.smarter
D.better
答案:
B[解析]根据第五段最后一句话“Theybecomefrailerandloseindependence...”可知,frailer意为“易碎的,脆弱的,易损的”。
lonelier意为“更孤独的”;weaker意为“更虚弱的”;smarter意为“更聪明的”;better意为“更好的”。
根据上文可知,摔倒后的老年人会生活不能自理,所以他们应该是越来越脆弱,只有B项符合句意。
故选B。
4.Accordingtothepassage,whichofthefollowingisTRUE?
A.Afallisaveryterriblethingthatyoukeepquietabout.
B.Afterafallelderlypeoplewillnotdevelopchronicproblems.
C.Topreventfallselderlypeopleshouldmovetoanursinghome.

答案:
A[解析]根据第四段第一、二句话“Elderlypatientstendnottoreport...Afallisaveryfrighteningthingthatyoukeepquietabout.”可知,摔倒是一件非常可怕的事,而老年人却什么都不说。
此处的frightening与A项中的terrible是同义词。

A.Olderadultfallsareontherise.
B.Peopleshouldkeepquietabouttheirfalls.
C.Olderadultsarelosingtheirindependence.
D.Olderadultfallscausebraininjuries.
答案:
A[解析]本文通篇都是围绕“越来越多的老年人跌倒”这一话题展开的,所以A项正确。
B项意为“人们应该对摔倒的事情闭口不谈”,这与文章大意不符;C项意为“老年人正在丧失独立生活的能力”,这只是摔倒后的后果,而不能作为全文的主旨;D项意为“老年人摔倒会造成大脑损伤”,这也是摔倒可能会导致的结果,文章第三段最后一句话“Whenthathappens,preventioneffortsdon'tbeginandthey'reatriskforadditionalfallsthatleadtobrokenbonesandbraininjuries.”指出,二次摔倒会导致骨折和脑部损伤。
故选A。
