（2022·江苏南京·校联考二模）Will Eating Less Help You Live Longer?
If you want to slow aging, you might want to eat less. Researchers in the United States say eating less can slow the aging process (过程) of cells in the body.
John Price, a professor at Brigham Young University in the U.S. state of Utah, with other researchers, studied two groups of mice. One group was able to eat as ___61___ as it wanted. The researchers controlled what the second group ate. Their food had 35 percent fewer calories (卡路里) than the first group of mice. Price said the second group of mice was more ___62___ and had fewer diseases. He and his team found that ___63___ calories slowed aging.
The researchers found that fewer calories slow down cells’ ribosomes (核糖体). Price explained that ribosomes are used to make important proteins (蛋白质). But with fewer calories, ribosomes slow down. This gives ribosomes more time to ___64___ themselves. Price used cars to explain this as an example. “Like a car, a ribosome isn’t a simple ___65___. It needs repairs to change the broken parts. When the glass of the car is broken,” he explained, “you don’t need to throw the ___66___ car away and buy a new one. It costs less to change the glass.” Price said that because of this, it is ___67___ to break a whole ribosome when it starts to break down. “Instead, repairing single part of the ribosome makes ribosomes continue producing high quality proteins. This top quality production keeps cells and the whole ___68___ working well,” he added.
Earlier studies have shown a connection between calorie reduction and slowed aging. However, this is first to show how the ribosomes can ___69___ aging. Price said the findings help to explain___70___ exactly people become older. And this may help us make more wise decisions about what we eat.

【分析】每个人都有难题。如果我们不能处理好我们的问题，我们很容易变得不开心。为了帮助大家解决这个问题，作者提出了几个解决方案。
21．句意：我们中的大多数大概都和我们的朋友、父母或老师生气过。
考查形容词辨析。Satisfied满意的；interested令人感兴趣的；excited令人兴奋的；angry生气的。根据后文“Perhaps they said something you didn't like, or you felt unfair” 也许他们说了你不喜欢的话，或者你觉得不公平可知，是和父母生气，故选D。
22．句意：随着时间流逝，好的友情就被弄丢了。
考查动词语态。be founded被找到；find找到；be lost被弄丢了；lost丢失。前文提到和父母朋友生气，一直记在心里，所以此处应该表示友谊丢失而不是找到，并且主语是友谊，只能是用被动语态而不能用主动，故选C。
23．句意：有时他们有分歧，决定不再互相交谈。
考查动词辨析。固定搭配和某人一起玩应该是play with，和某人交流应该是talk to，空格后面是to，所以应该用talk，另外前文讲到他们有了分歧，所以应该是不交流，用否定，故选A。
24．句意：这对我们来说是很重要的一课：我们可以通过学习遗忘来解决问题。
考查名词辨析。book书；lesson课程；subject科目；magazine杂志。根据后一句的总结可知，这对我们来说是很重要的一课，故选B。

26．句意：有时他们可能会觉得有太多的作业要做，或者认为学校的规定太严格。
考查形容词辨析。relaxing放松的；strict严格的；boring无聊的；interesting有趣的。根据前文提到抱怨，并且or的前后应该是近义词，又因是修饰school rules学校规定，只能是严格，故选B。
27．句意：作为学生，在老师的帮助下尽力处理每一个我们学习中的挑战是我们的责任。
考查连词。Unlike不像；Like像；As作为；So所以。根据后文的duty责任可知，此处应该是作为学生的责任，故选C。
28．句意：通过跟其他人对比我们的问题，我们将会发现我们的问题并不是很糟糕。
考查物主代词。our我们的，形容词性物主代词；ours我们的，名词性物主代词；us我们，人称代词宾格；we我们，人称代词主格。根据语境可知，此处是表示我们的问题，但是所以要用物主代词，而空格后并没有名词，所以用名词性物主代词，故选B。
29．句意：例如，想一想史蒂芬霍金，一个非常聪明的科学家，他认为他的很多的身体上的问题都是不重要的。
考查疑问代词。what什么；who谁；which哪一个；whose谁的。根据后面这句话可知，全是修饰前面名词的，属于定语从句，前方的名字Stephen Hawking可知，是修饰人用疑问代词who，故选B。
30．句意：让我们来面对这些挑战吧。
考查副词。Yet但是，还；however然而；again重复；instead代替，而不是。根据前文“Don’t worry about problems”，不要担心这些问题，前文的担心与后文的面对正好相反，故选D。
