Question

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后字数要求）。

[1]Having a cold is an unpleasant experience, and it is even worse when you have a cough and a running nose. Sometimes we need to see a doctor to free ourselves from these symptoms(症状), but at other times we can treat it at home. One of the ways that you can try is simply drinking lots of water.

[2] There are two reasons why drinking plenty of water will help while you are sick with a cold. The first is an important one. Being sick with a cold puts us at risk of becoming dehydrated(脱水的). Mucus(鼻涕) production and fever both cause this dehydration.

[3] The second reason why drinking lots of water will help during your sickness is that it can help thin the mucus in the chest, which in turn will make coughing it up much easier. The good news is that you can take in your water in more ways than just drinking boring water.

[4]Tea is always , and a good hot tea can also help loosen the mucus. Other good options include juicy fruits and soup. Chicken soup is always a good choice for sickness. One should be careful and stay away from alcohol and caffeine. One more great idea for helping with a cold is to use steam. A vaporizer(喷雾器) is a good choice, and a hot shower will help as well.

[5]If you drink around 8 cups of water a day while you are sick with a cold, you will be able to do away with that cough quicker, and maybe even get over your cold quicker. So next time you are sick with a cold and don’t feel well, drink lots of water, tea and plenty of soup.

试题分析:本文是一篇说明文，介绍了家庭中如何去治疗感冒。感冒是很难受的事情，发烧，流鼻涕等还会让人脱水，为了防止这种情况的发生，作者建议人们可以多饮水，喝茶或者汤，这些都可以减轻感冒的症状，有效帮助治愈感冒。

1.信息归纳题。文章开头段由感冒的难受症状引出治疗感冒的话题： One of the ways that you can try is simply drinking lots of water。然后在下文中对此进行解释，由此判断文章中心内容是介绍饮水可以帮助治愈感冒，故答案填Drinking much water can help with a cold。

2.。信息查找题。根据文章第二段内容Mucus(鼻涕) production and fever both cause this dehydration.可知发烧和感冒可以引起脱水。

3.。信息归纳题。根据后面内容Other good options include juicy fruits and soup. Chicken soup is always a good choice for sickness.可知此处是指饮茶也是治疗感冒的一种方法。

4.。信息查找题。根据第三段中…… that it can help thin the mucus in the chest, which in turn will make coughing it up much easier.可以判断it指代上文中的mucus一词。

5.。信息查找题。根据文章末句So next time you are sick with a cold and don’t feel well, drink lots of water, tea and plenty of soup.可知当感冒时候可以喝水，茶和汤。
