1. 答案出处:第二段尾句but perhaps more importantly, men dont go to the doctor.
本篇文章的首段末句指出,男性的寿命平均要比女性短5年,接着第2段分析了原因,this指代上文提到的you will die on average five years before a woman.在第二段中,作者先是列举男性比女性更爱冒险以及女性饮酒和抽烟更多,接着通过but转折指出更重要的原因(most importantly):男性不爱看医生,所以答案为B。
2. 答案出处:最后一段But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases.
