【解析】本文介绍一些关于spring的习惯用语。
【1】上文提到“当我们有春热时,我们真的生病了吗?最初,是的”。承接上文,D项 Spring fever used to refer to an Actual illness.“春热指的是一种真正的疾病。”切题。
【2】上文提到“但是“春天”这个词不仅仅是一个季节。”承接上文,C项 It is also a verb that means something happening or appearing quickly.“它也是一个动词,意思是发生或迅速出现的东西。”切题。该项中的also与上文中的not just对应。
【3】上文提到“你从沙发上跳起来,去追赶老鼠!但是你没抓住,”。下文提到“但是当你告诉你的室友你在一个陷阱里捉到一只老鼠时,眼泪就会涌向她的眼睛。”承接上下句,F项 That night you spring a trap with some cheese in it“那天晚上你在里面放了一个带奶酪的陷阱。”切题。关键词trap。
【4】下文提到“你对她说,“你不能把它给我!我需要时间去找另一个室友!””承接下文,E项Then unexpectedly, your roommate is moving out tomorrow.“然后出乎意料的是,你的室友明天就要搬走了。”切题。该项中的moving out tomorrow.与find another roommate对应。
【5】下文提到“她总是希望你能补偿她失去的那只老鼠:她想让你请她去吃午饭,提出去买电影票,有时甚至是提出去买杂货。”承接下文,G项Even so, she constantly annoys you.“即使这样,她持续不断地烦扰你”切题。该项中的constantly annoys you与下文内容吻合。
做七选五题时,“当心文中小also”,also是“也”的意思,这就说明前文一定存在它的一个分支了,这样的例子比比皆是:前文交代“It helps you practice what you have learnt during the day and establish study habits that will be important in college ”虽然看上去很长的一句话,从句就有两个,但是重点就三个单词“It helps you”,此时在空中填上“It can also help you prepare for your classes and get a sense of progress.”,(关键词It can also help you)这样一对应就很工整了。当然“also”只是一个代表罢了,可以表示递进的词还有很多:what’ more, besides, in addition等等。本题第2小题,该项中的also与上文中的not just对应。故答案为C。
