Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 【1】But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. 【2】This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.

【3】Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 【4】When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.

There are many common methods used to cook fish. 【5】First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.

A. Do not buy it.

B. The easiest is to steam it.

C. This is how you can do it.

D. It just requires a little knowledge.

E. The fish will go bad within hours.

F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】G

【2】D

【3】F

【4】A

【5】B

【解析】

试题分析：本文属于说明文，鱼是健康的食物。本文介绍了购买和烹饪鱼肉的方法。

【1】G 根据横线前句Everyone knows that fish is good for health.可知大家都知道鱼对人的健康有益。本句对这一说法进行解释。G项“The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease”鱼肉里的脂肪可以预防心脏病，这一说法和第一句相搭配。

【2】D 横线前句“Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.”告诉我们购买存储和烹饪鱼肉并不难，需要我们了解相关的知识即可。且与横线后句“This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.”相一致。

【3】F 根据横线后句Fresh fish should smell sweet新鲜的鱼闻起来很甜。说明本段告诉我们买鱼的时候要先闻闻味道。故F项正确。

【4】A 横线前句“Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.”味道过浓的鱼都是不新鲜的鱼。这样的鱼是不能购买的。故A项正确。

【5】B 根据横线后两句“First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound.”可知在介绍蒸鱼的方法。所以B项“The easiest is to steam it.最容易的方法是蒸鱼。”符合上下文串联。
