题目内容

【题目】 Whether you’re going in for checkups or common tests in the hospital, here’s how to get the most out of your next visit.

If you’re going in for a regular doctor visit, you’re probably going to have your blood pressure taken. So it’s best to avoid coffee right before your appointment. 1 Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher. 2

They also may cause untrue results.

You probably want to show the doctor your best health. 3 Before an annual appointment, your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care. You may think improving an unhealthy diet close to your appointment date is necessary. 4 It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar, so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn’t going to do much. Changes occur over the long term, so it’s best to eat healthy as much as you can.

No matter what kind of appointment you have, you may be a bit nervous-after all, being examined by a doctor can make us feel vulnerable and even embarrassed. But if you write down the things you want to talk about before you go (or even make a note on your phone), you’re less likely to forget or lose you nerve. It’s helpful if you come in with your list of questions. 5

A.You may get too nervous to ask.

B.The same goes for tobacco products.

C.It might affect the results.

D.But probably that wouldn’t matter.

E.Your doctor wants you to feel better.

F.It’s not necessary to change your eating habits.

G.Don’t be afraid to write down.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了就医时的一些建议,如:不要在与医生预约看病前喝咖啡和抽烟,没必要改变饮食习惯,以及列出自己的问题清单。

1根据后文Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher.可知在测量血压一小时内饮用咖啡或其他含咖啡因的饮料,如能量饮料或可乐,会人为地使血压升高。由此可知,喝咖啡可能会影响最后结果的准确性。上文中coffee对应到C选项中It。故C选项“这可能会影响结果”符合上下文语境,故选C

2根据后文They also may cause untrue results.可知他们也可能导致不真实的结果。由此可知,本句同样是在列举会影响结果的因素。故B选项“烟草产品也是如此”符合上下文语境,故选B

3根据后文Before an annual appointment, your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care.可知在年度预约之前,你的医生希望你对自己的生活方式和饮食诚实坦率,这样他们就能准确了解你的健康状况,为你提供最好的治疗。由此可知,为了让医生准确地了解到您的健康状况,是没有必要改变自己的饮食习惯的。故F选项“没有必要改变你的饮食习惯”符合上下文语境,故选F

4根据后文It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar, so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn’t going to do much.可知饮食改变胆固醇和血糖需要很长时间,所以几天或几顿饭的饮食改变不会有多大作用。由此可知,在你的预约看病前改善不健康的饮食并没有多大的作用,是无关紧要的改变。故D选项“但这可能无关紧要”符合上下文语境,故选D

5根据上文It’s helpful if you come in with your list of questions.可知如果你带着你的问题清单来,这是很有帮助的。由此可知,本句承接上文应当是在鼓励人们将自己的问题写下来。故G选项“不要害怕写下来”符合上下文语境,故选G

七选五的解题技巧之一是根据上下文词汇来锁定线索。即:要关注空白前后的名词和动词,然后在选项中查找它们的近义词、反义词、同义词、同类词等。其次是一些专有名词,比如说数词、代词、时间、年代、地点/名称等。如第一小题,根据后文Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher.可知在测量血压一小时内饮用咖啡或其他含咖啡因的饮料,如能量饮料或可乐,会人为地使血压升高。由此可知,喝咖啡可能会影响最后结果的准确性。上文中coffee对应到C选项中It。故C选项“这可能会影响结果”符合上下文语境,故选C

【题目】 For years, life went something like this: We'd grow up in one place, head off to college, and then find a city to live in for a few years at time to pursue a job or higher education. The end goal was to find somewhere to settle down, buy a house, start a family, and begin the whole cycle all over again.

But a new model for living is emerging: More and more people are moving from city to city throughout their entire lives, sometimes as frequently as every month. Just ask Alex Chatzielefteriou, who has had a front-row seat watching this evolution unfold.

Six years ago, he launched a startup called Blueground that rents out beautifully designed, fully furnished apartments for a month at a time, at rates that are cheaper than hotels. Today, the company has 3,000 properties in six U.S. cities, along with Dubai, Istanbul, London, Paris, and Chatzielefteriou's native Athens, and a staff of 400. The company just invested $78 million to continue its rapid expansion and make each one feel unique and cosy, rather than standardized, like what you might find in a traditional hotel.

Chatzielefteriou first came up with the idea for Blueground while he was working as a management consultant for McKinsey. “The accommodation of choice for consultants is the hotel,” he says. “I had to spend five years in a hotel room, living in 12 different cities. I loved seeing the world, but I didn't love feeling like I didn't have a home.” As he spoke to his friends and coworkers, he realized that many people were frustrated with this restless lifestyle. And what's more, hotels aren't a particularly cost-effective solution for companies either. In Chatzielefteriou's case, McKinsey sometimes paid S10,000 or more for him to stay in a major city for a month, which was far more expensive than local rents.

1What's the main purpose of the first paragraph?

A.To tell the end goal of our life.

B.To introduce the topic of the text.

C.To stress the importance of buying a house.

D.To explain the reason for people's flooding into cities.

2What motivated Chatzielefteriou to set up a company?

A.His urge to have a home.

B.His desire to make money.

C.His friends' encouragement.

D.His experience in living in hotel.

3Why is Blueground a success?

A.It has obvious price superiority.

B.It has good geographical location.

C.It has beautifully designed apartments.

D.It has unique and comfortable environment.

4What does the text mainly talk about?

A.The fall of traditional hotels.

B.The rise of a new living model.

C.The advantages of Blueground.

D.The disadvantages of traditional hotels.

【题目】阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

续写的词数为100左右。

Kusa, a 10-year-old boy, has looked out for his big sister, 12-year-old Pahnuly, for as long as he can remember. At school, he helps her unpack her things at her locker. At home, they read together, play games and practice counting.

Pahnuly has autism (自闭症). People with autism often have trouble talking with others. They might repeat things over and over, or be interested in only one subject. But it was Pahnuly that inspired Kusa to think differently. One day, they played ping-pong with their parents at home in Brooklyn Park. But Pahnuly struggled with it. So Kusa wanted to find a way to make it more suited to his sister’s needs. He came up with a new game based on ping-pong. It is called Aeropong because the ball seems to float in the air. In Aeropong, a ping-pong ball hangs from a frame. The players hit the ball back and forth. It’s kind of like tennis, but no one has to chase the ball.

At first, Pahnuly didn’t show much interest. But soon, Kusa heard a sound coming from the front room. Clack(吧嗒声). Clack. Clack. Pahnuly had picked up a paddle (乒乓球拍) and was tapping the ball. Then, she started hitting it back and forth with Kusa and their dad. Eventually, the family took a trip to Menards to buy some PVC pipes and fashioned a portable frame for the ball to hang from. They also designed rules and ways to score points.

Word spread at school about Kusa’s game. His teacher, Stasica, asked him to tell his class about Aeropong. Kusa was usually shy, but when he talked about his game, his face lit up with excitement, Stasica said. Kusa told his classmates the game was meant to make people smile, especially his big sister. "When she scores," he said, "she dances."

Paragraph 1:

Aeropong has become an essential family activity in Kusa’s home.

Paragraph 2:

Widely spreading on the Internet, Kusa’s game got attention across the country.
