分析 这篇幽默故事的大意是:Ellen Parker由于身体虚弱去看医生,医生建议她减肥.Ellen Parker听从了医生的建议,却进了一家卖肉的商店并向店主要了10磅重的一块牛排.当店主要她付钱时,她却说自己并不想买肉,只是想看看10磅肉到底有多大一块.至此,我们知道Ellen Parker到肉店去的目的并非买肉,而是想要弄明白自己如果减掉10磅肉的话,到底需要减下多大一块.
解答 48-51 BADB
48:B.信息归纳题.根据文章首段的"Ellen Parker was worried about her health.She could not walk very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stairs.She was soon out of breath."不难看出Ellen Parker"爬楼困难、气喘吁吁".由此,我们得出"Ellen Parker 的健康有问题"这一结论.故选B.
49.A.细节题,根据最后My doctor told me that I am over-weight and I have to lose ten pounds说明医生让她减肥10磅,故选A.
50:D.细节理解题.短文最后一段的"I wanted to see what ten pounds of flesh looked like."一句中.Ellen Parker到肉店去并非是为了买肉,而是要看看10磅肉究竟有多大一块.故选D.
51:B.这也是一道逻辑推理题.文章第一段提到Ellen Parker的身体很虚弱,最后My doctor told me that I am over-weight and I have to lose ten pounds说明医生让她减肥10磅.据此,我们可以推断出她所有的健康问题皆由身体肥胖所致.
