Imagine this: you wake up each morning to find your sister lying beside you. To get dressed and tie your shoes, you use one hand and she uses another. You do everything out together, even sitting on the same chair at lunch and riding on the same bicycle. That’s what life is like for six-year-old Betty and Abby. Like most twins, the two girls look very much alike. But unlike most twins, Betty and Abby share parts of the same body. Twins like Betty and Abby are rare. Only about 40 sets are born in the United States each year. Few survive as long as Betty and Abby. That’s because twins often share vital organs, like a heart or brain. The shared organs are often badly shaped and may not be strong enough to support both twins. But Betty and Abby each has her own head, heart and stomach which function normally. They have three or four lungs which provide plenty of oxygen for both twins. Most of their completely shared organs fie below the waist. Betty and Abby five relatively normal fives. They attend a regular school, and each does her own school work. They prefer to do some projects together, though, for example, to cut out paper dolls, one twin holds the paper, while the other uses the scissors. But sometimes the girls don’t want to do the same thing, for example, sometimes they want to play with different toys. What do they do then? "We toss a coin," says Abby.
选项
A、Few of them can live long.
B、Most of them live a normal life.
C、Few of them get along well with each other.
D、Most Of them differ in their likes and dislikes.
答案
A
解析
What does the passage tell us about twins who share parts of the same body?
预览选项并结合第26题可知,本题考查连体双胞胎的生活状态。根据常理,连体双胞胎是不可能过上正常人的生活的,故可排除[B]。文中通过一系列例子来说明连体双胞眙相处的很好,并且有相同的爱好,故排除[C]和[D]。短文中提到Few survive as long as Betty and Abby表明,这种连体婴儿存活率很小,故选[A]。
