14.Scientists have found we are more likely to die on our birthday than any other day.Researchers who studied more than two million people over 40years found a rise in deaths from heart attacks,strokes(中风),falls and suicides(自杀)and others on that day.
On average,people over the age of 60were 14per cent more likely to die on their birthdays.Heart attacks rose 18.6per cent on birthdays and were higher for men and women while strokes were up 21.5per cent-mostly in women.
Dr Vladeta Ajdacic of the University of Zurich said:"Birthdays end dangerously more frequently than might be expected."He added that risk of birthday death rose as people got older.
Canadian data also showed that strokes were more likely on birthdays,especially among patients with high blood pressure.
There was a 34.9per cent rise in suicides,28.5per cent rise in accidental deaths not related to cars,and a 44per cent rise in deaths from falls on birthdays.
Psychologist Professor Richard Wiseman,from the University of Hertfordshire,said,"It seems to be a reliable finding.There are two cases-one is the case that suggests you eat too much and your getting over excited and that causes you to die."He said continuously,"The other is a placebo effect(安慰剂效应).You are knife-edged on death.And you kept yourself going until your birthday.You think‘That's it.I've had enough.I'm out of here.'"
Dr Lewis Halsey,of the University of Roehampton,said,"One interesting finding is that more suicides happen on birthdays,though only in men.Perhaps men are more likely to make a statement about their unhappiness when they think people will be taking more notice of them."

61.D 细节题.根据Canadian data also showed that strokes were more likely on birthdays,especially among patients with high blood pressure.可知,高血压的病人生日时容易中风,故答案为D
点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是,仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案,这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱.所谓阅读理解,对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文,因此,每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查,再得出答案.也就是说,阅读理解的每一道题目,在原文都应该有明确的出处,我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句,(1)排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项(2)排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 (3)排除用于过于极端或负面的选项(4)注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除.
