只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。b．Ultravioletlightcausesfreeradicalstoform.c．Freeradicalsdamagecellsinourbodies.d．Thesungivesoutultravioletlight.A．a，b，c，dB．d，b，a，cC．c，a，d，bD．d，b，c，a答案　D解析　排序题。根据文章第三段前四句“Ultravioletlightcauseschemicalscalledfreeradicals(自由基)toformwithinplantcells.Theycandestroypartsofplant.Freeradicalsalsohavedamagingeffectsonhumanbeings.Someoftheseeffectslikewrinkledskincanbeseen.”内容可知事情发生的先后顺序是：先是太阳释放出紫外线，然后紫外线造成自由基的生成，接着自由基破坏我们身体的细胞，最后皮肤起皱纹，故选D。6．Weneedextrahelpforfightingofffreeradicalsfromfruitsandvegetablesbecause.A．ourdefencesgetweakeraswegetolderB．ourbodies’defencesarenotnaturalC．wearetooyoungtodefendourselvesD．ourbodies’builtindefencescanonlygoaway答案　A解析　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句“However，theygetweakeraswegetolder.Thebody’sbuiltindefencescanonlygosofarwithoutextrahelp.”可知当我们变老的时候，我们身体的防御能力也随之变弱，已经无法抵抗外来的侵袭了，在这时我们就需要外来的帮助。所以答案为A。7．WhichofthefollowingcanNOTcausefreeradicalstoform?A．Ultravioletlightfromthesun.B．Colorfulfood.C．Pollutedair.D．Thebodyitself.答案　B解析　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的内容可知，太阳、被污染的空气以及我们自己的身体都会释放出自由基。而根据文章第五段可知各种颜色的食物能帮助我们抵抗自由基。因此选B。Ⅱ.完形填空OnafreezingcoldFebruarymorninginIndiana，JhaqueilReagan,18，lefthometowalktoajobinterview—tenmilesaway，overmuddyroads.Reaganhadbeenlooking8
