1．A. wrong B. pure C. good D. whole

1．C分析：根据语感：good or bad（好的或坏的）直接判断答案。同时了解到标题中的Preferences就是指 “人们的态度（attitudes）”。

直接看题解题：

2．A. either B. terminal C. final D. terrible

Elizabeth K．Vig of the University of Washington in Seattle and colleagues interviewed 26 men with __2__ heart disease or cancer．

3．A. perfections B. presence C. preferences D. references

men were asked to describe good and bad deaths，and they also answered questions about their __3__for dying．

3．C．分析：被选项中包含标题词或文章主题词时，答案往往出自是标题词或文章主题词的选项。考察文章中心。
