答案解析

D2

1. B. 根据She argues that to improve academics, US schools should de-emphasize sports和Instead, students should bring their passion and intensity (专注) to academics, she concludes可知Amanda Ripley认为要改革美国教育，就要让人们不再过度重视体育，而把精力放到学业上来。

2. B. 根据“High school in Finland, Korea and Poland had a purpose, just like high-school football practice in America,” she writes. “There was a big, important contest at the end, and the score counted.”可知韩国很重视考试成绩，把它作为衡量教育质量的重要标准。根据Ripley is critical (批判的) of memorization in South Korean education,可知A项错误。根据Finland was losing jobs after graduating just 10 percent of its teens from high school in the 1950s可知D项错误。C项在文中没有提到。

3. B. 原文提到Trading in US school sports culture would be a huge change for people in the US, who respect teamwork and sportsmanship as training for life. Trade in表示“交换”的意思。也就是重视学业，而不要过于专注于体育，这是一种交换，也是一个巨大的转变。

4. D. 根据文章内容可知，作者倡导进行教育改革，从韩国，芬兰等国学习先进经验，减少对体育的过度关注，这体现了作者对于美国教育改革的积极态度。

1. D. 根据A US research group says that they might have found a way to really make it happen - by changing certain parts of human genes, reported the Los Angeles Times.可知Pankaj Kapahi所领导的研究小组主要的研究方向是寻找通过基因重组来延长寿命的方法。

2. B. 根据By turning off one, the lifespan of the worm - usually just several weeks long - was found to be extended by 30 percent while turning off the other could double the amount of time they lived. The best part is that by adding the two together, the worm’s lifespan was increased five-fold可知，关掉某些基因的开关可以延长Caenorhabditis elegans的作用，前文也提到there were two genes known for lifespan extension (拓展)，但仅此两个，所以D项是错误的，A项没有提到，而根据So far, though, the study is only valid (有根据的) for worms. Whether similar gene changes in mammals would show the same results has yet to be tested可知C项是错误的。

3. B. 根据Kapahi believes that genes play the most fundamental (基本的) part.可知虽然健康饮食和宗教等因素对于长寿也有影响，但是基因的作用是最关键的。

D4

1. B。从全文看作者和她的丈夫在家里的分工很明确，作者负责照顾孩子的饮食起居，她的丈夫主要跟孩子们一起玩耍和运动。所以两人扮演的父母角色相辅相成，相得益彰。

2. D。从文章的第四段到第九段列举的事例可以得此答案。从第五段的“I was ‘cool’ until their father captured a giant beetle in the backyard.”可知，至少在那个时刻，孩子们觉得他们的爸爸更酷，所以A不对。BC文章都没有提到。

3. B。文中提到作者买了孩子们最爱口味的牙膏教孩子们刷牙，带孩子们看医生，这体现了作者关爱孩子们的健康。而“I can make sure my children are safe.”这句话体现了她对孩子们安全方面的关心。从“I can carry my children in my arms when they are tired and kiss them goodnight.”这句话可以看出作者是个让孩子们感觉温暖和温柔的妈妈。
