[填空题]Unlike some other arthritis treatments, there doesn’t appear to be anything actually harmful about the Free Enterprise Radon Health Mine in Boulder, Mont. True, radio-active radon gas—the active ingredient in what the mine’s owners advertise as "the unmedical approach to anthritis"—can cause cancer. (21)But while the radiation level in the old uranium mine is 175 times the federal standard for dwellings, patients spend only a couple of hours a day down there—not enough to be dangerous by itself. The average patient’s age is 72, according to Adrian Howe, chief of the state Occupational Health Bureay; since "the time it takes for lung cancer to develop in an adult is 15 to 30 years, it’s likely that other potential causes of death might occur before lung cancer."
Is it odd that people would seek out a known carcinogen in their quest for relief from arthritis Not really. Arthritis patients are particularly apt to try unproven treatments; one study found that 94 percent of a
[单项选择]Unlike other primroses, self-pollinating primroses do not need to rely on insects for pollination. In many years insect pollinators are scarce, and in those years a typical non-self-pollinating primrose produces fewer seeds than does a typical self-pollinating primrose. In other years, seed production is approximately equal. Thus, self-pollinating primroses have the advantage of higher average seed production. Aside from seed production, these self-pollinating primroses are indistinguishable from non-self-pollinating primroses. Nevertheless, self-pollinating primrose plants remain rare among primroses.
Which one of the following, if true, most helps to resolve the apparent discrepancy in the information above
A. Insects that collect pollen from primroses do not discriminate between self-pollinating primroses and non-pollinating primroses.
B. When insect pollinators are scarce, non-self-pollinating primroses produce larger seeds that are more likely to germinate than are seeds from self-pollinating primroses.
C. Self-pollinating primroses that are located in areas with few insects produce no fewer seeds than do self-pollinating primroses that are located in areas with many insects.
D. Many primroses are located in areas in which the soil conditions that are optimal for seed germination are not present.
E. (E) Self-pollinating primroses can be assisted by insects during pollination but do not require the assistance of insects to be pollinated.

[单项选择]Unlike some classic European novels, American literature encompasses many different, even unique, styles and genres. One of the most interesting of these is the Southern Gothic subgenre. As its name implies, Southern Gothic literature is reflective of life in the American South. Southern Gothic maintains some of the characteristics of Gothic writing, such as plot development of the supernatural or the ironic. However, Southern Gothic does not focus on creating tension and suspense like other Gothic genres. Instead, Southern Gothic story lines examine Southern society and its underlying, often implicit, social structure.
Southern Gothic writers generally spurn the stereotype of the gentleman on the plantation and the glamorous Southern belle. Instead, the authors develop characters that are sinister or reclusive and not particularly pleasant on the surface. However, these characters usually have redeeming qualities that allow and encourage the reader to empathize with their situati
