语篇解读：本文讲述一个注重饮食健康、也爱好晨炼的女孩见到一个“老人”，年龄虽大，看起来却很快乐的。通过交谈得知，这位不注重饮食和锻炼的“老人”却只有47岁。
1. B。由时间状语“every morning”及常识可知，她是在每天早饭前进行散步五公里。
2. B。第一段中介绍Alicia健康的生活方式和饮食习惯，所以这一句的意思是“她不吸烟也不喝酒”。
3. C。either用于否定句句末；too用于肯定句句末；also用于肯定句句中。故选C。
4. A。从下文的描述可知，he is a man。
5. B。由上文：他看起来又瘦又弱，并且手一直在晃动，与后文的“happy”形成转折关系。
6. D。on one’s face在某人的脸上，是固定词组。
7. B。look系动词，看起来，old and wise 做系动词look的表语。句意“他看起来年纪很大而且很博学。
8. A。从下文“but what is your secret for being so happy at your age？” 可以判断用secret。
9. B。句意：我希望你不要介意我的提问。mind sb.doing sth.介意某人做某事。stand意为“忍受，站立”； allow 意为“允许”；enjoy意为“享受”，这三项都不符合句意。
10. A。句意：我希望当我在你这个年龄时。when 当……时候，引导时间状语从句；since后面一般跟“过去时间”；“for＋时间段”往往用于完成时； though引导让步状语从句。
11. C。根据上一段第二句话“what’s your secret for being so happy at your age？”可以看出是“快乐的秘密”。happy的名词形式为happiness.故选C。
12. A。由下文两句话可知，对于“老人”的回答，她很惊奇。
13. C。词义辨析。根据倒数第四段中这位老人说的话，可以知道Alicia 认为他做的每一件事都对身体不好。
14. D。Alicia认为这位老人的这种生活方式、饮食习惯会使他生病或不高兴。angry 生气的；serious严肃的；quiet 安静的；sick生病的。
15. C。Alicia以为他90岁左右，她误以为不用吃的很好或不用进行很多的锻炼就能够长寿、快乐。
