【解析】

这是一篇说明文。研究表明,吃肉多的人容易患心血管疾病,早死的几率大。

1考查名词的数。句意:如今,似乎越来越多的人开始注重以植物为主的饮食,而忽略了动物产品。product是可数名词,此处作宾语,需用复数形式。故填products

2考查介词。句意:对于爱吃肉的人来说,一项新的研究发现,一个人吃多少肉与过早死亡的风险增加之间存在联系。固定短语betweenand…“在……之间”,依据语境可知是找到了两者之间的关系,故填between

3考查非谓语动词。句意:根据发表在《美国临床营养学杂志》(American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)上的一项研究,饮食中食用较多红肉或加工肉类的人死于一种长期疾病的几率更高。此处publishresearch构成被动,作后置定语,因此需用过去分词形式。故填published

4考查形容词比较级。句意同上。依据句中的who ate more red meat可知此处需用比较级形式。故填higher

5考查冠词。句意:这项新研究参考了库奥皮奥缺血性心脏病风险因素研究的数据。此处作同位语,解释说明Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study,因此需用不定冠词,而且ongoing是以元音音素开头的单词,故填an

6考查时态语态。句意:研究对象为2,641名年龄在42岁至60岁之间的芬兰男性,研究开始于1984年至1989年。此处作谓语且make与主语间为动宾关系,需用被动语态,文章讲述的是过去的事情,故填was made

7考查定语从句连接词。句意:据《每日科学》报道,那些每天吃7盎司或更多的红肉或加工肉类,或从肉类中获取大部分蛋白质的人,过早死亡的风险要高出23%。此处为定语从句修饰先行词Those,代指人,故用who引导定语从句。

8考查名词。句意同上。固定短语the majority of“大多数”。故填majority

9考查副词。句意:事实上,这并不是针对红肉或加工肉类的第一次攻击:红肉或加工肉类会增加你患这种疾病的机会。此处修饰动词,需用副词形式。故填actually

10考查非谓语动词。of是介词,因此其后用动名词形式。故填getting

定语从句中的关系词选择,可考虑以下几点:

1、看清楚先行词的意义,就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用whowhom,指人时通常不用which等等。

2、看清楚关系词的句法功能,就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等等。作定语通常用whose,有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why

3、看清楚定语从句的种类,就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。thatwhy通常不引导非限制性定语从句。

4、看清楚文体,就是理清是正式文体,还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。

如第七小题,句意:据《每日科学》报道,那些每天吃7盎司或更多的红肉或加工肉类,或从肉类中获取大部分蛋白质的人,过早死亡的风险要高出23%。此处为定语从句修饰先行词Those,代指人,故用who引导定语从句。

【题目】 Increasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport” idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information.

International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announcements and so on. This is all changing. Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to create a calm, relaxed atmosphere without being disturbed by announcements. “Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges(休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.

In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland—a country where the tourism slogan(口号) is “silence, please”—became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept. As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announcements for flights are made only in boarding gate areas.

Lost track of time in the shops?

Too bad.

Nobody’s going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional(尤其) emergency circumstances.

Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved flight information display system and interactive kiosks(交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicate with passengers. At Munich airport, InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in the traveler’s language of choice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers can tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking time to their destinations.

Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple. There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements along with boarding calls. But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has adopted in Helsinki.

1What is Angela Gittens’ opinion on the silent airport concept?

A. It makes airport noise-free.

B. It is intended for passengers’ benefit.

C. It has changed international airports’ reputation.

D. It has encouraged the catering industry in airports.

2What should passengers pay close attention to at Helsinki Airport?

A. Their boarding time.B. Finland’s tourism slogan.

C. The shop’s opening hours.D. The “you are here” display.

3Why is Munich Airport mentioned in the text?

A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce Infogate kiosks.

C. To prove Heikki Koski’s words.D. To be compared with Helsinki Airport.

4What is the best title for the text?

A. Silence, please. This is an airport.

B. Can airports be as quiet as temples?

C. Silent airports all around the world.

D. Technology helps airports become interactive.

【题目】You often find somebody who works around you complaining all the time, don’t you? 1. About 70% of Americans say being around nonstop complainers sometimes has a bad influence on them. Luckily, here are 4 tips to help form positive patterns.

Self-awareness

When a negative thought pops into your mind, immediately correct it. Instead of telling yourself “That’s a nice shirt, but I can’t afford it,” change the message to “That will look great with my black pants when I can afford it.”2.

Of course, everyone complains sometimes. But the less frequently you complain, the better you will feel.

Distance yourself

3. Excuse yourself and go somewhere quiet, somewhere outdoors in the fresh air. Think of something pleasant before returning. You have to take this seriously because negative people can and will pull you into the quicksand (难以摆脱的困境).

Don’t try to change complainers

If you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event, simply choose silence. Let their words bounce off you while you think of something else. Attempting to stop the complaining can make you a target.4. If someone says, “I hate Mondays; weekends are too short,” try to think, “I’m glad I rested over the weekend, so I’m ready to make some improvement on that big project.”

5

When someone is shouting at you angrily, throw the responsibility back at them by asking, “So what do you intend to do about it?” In most cases, complainers don’t really want a solution. They just want to speak them out. If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions, they will leave you alone and find someone else to complain to. If so, you will be happy.

A. Find solutions

B. Change the responsibility

C. You have got a lot of company

D. By doing this, it will lead to positive behavior

E. But you can redirect the discussion in your own mind

F. Whenever possible, escape from negative conversations

G. You will never know what they are going to talk about

【题目】 Why Ultra-pure(超高纯的)Water Is Actually Bad for Your Health Many people are surprised to hear that drinking purified water on a regular, daily basis is actually dangerous. So why is 100% ultra-pure water not good for us? 1

There is no such thing as truly pure water in the natural world. 2When these minerals dissolve(溶解)in water, they form what we commonly refer to as electrolytes(电解质).They allow us to perform all the “bioelectrical” functions such as moving, heart-beating, thinking, and seeing.

But pure water fails to provide these fundamental electrolytes. 3You can think of it this wayimagine a room with no gravity, split in half down the middle. You throw a couple hundred balls into the left side of the room. 4 But if you cut a bunch of holes in the barrier, they will slowly start to spread over to the right side. Eventually, they will be evenly distributed across the entire room.

The water in your organs stays at very specific levels of minerals. When you drink ultra-purified water, it pulls the minerals out of your blood just like the right side of the space room pulled some of the bouncy balls over from the left. 5

Purified water can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of purified water is a bad idea.

A.Purified water is an active absorber.

B.Since there's no gravity, they bounce around everywhere.

C.It actually tries to rob your body of them when you drink it.

D.Even water in the purest lakes contains small amounts of minerals.

E.If you drank enough of it, the lack of minerals would eventually kill you.

F.The simple answer is that ultra-pure water doesn't provide the natural minerals we need#

G.This is why materials tend to move from more concentrated areas to less concentrated ones.
