Answer 1

分析 本文是关于健康习惯的调查．在一天刷几次牙，洗手沐浴几次，以及多久考虑过和细菌战斗一次等方面，描述了一些美国老年人的习惯并给出了专家建议．

解答 29．D．细节理解题．根据"A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day．"可知大约三分之一的美国老年人一天只刷一次牙，故选D．
30．D．细节理解题．根据"And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day----half of the number doctors recommend．"一天洗4次手是专家建议的一半，可知专家建议每天洗8次手．故答案选D．
31．C．细节理解题．根据"Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge（海绵）that can carry more germs than anything else？"可知厨房里的海绵比任何其他东西（包括厕所）携带的细菌都多．所以C是正确的．

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．
