【语篇解读】本文属于记叙文,讲述了一位年老的女士汽车突然爆胎,一个好心的男人主动帮她换了轮胎,并请求她去帮助那些需要帮助的人,后来这位女士帮助了一个怀孕的女人,她从来没有想到自己所帮助的这位孕妇正是那个男人的妻子。
【1】 考查固定句式。句式:be doing sth when....正在做某事在这时.....;其中的when是一个并列连词,所引导的句子表示意料之外的事情。句意:一天晚上一位老年女士正在开车经过一个小镇,在这时突然一个轮胎爆了。
【2】考查不定冠词。本句中名词situation是一个可数名词,前面使用不定冠词a表示泛指。句意:对她这样的年纪来说这是一个很糟糕的情形。
【3】 考查形容词。过去分词转换的形容词常常用来修饰人或者与人有关的事物,现在分词转换的形容词常常修饰事物。本句中的形容词annoyed恼怒的,对主语she的情况进行说明。
【4】 考查宾语补足语。本句中介词with后面接宾语the weather,the weather与动词get构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词作宾语补足语。句意:随着天气变得越来越冷,她很生气。
【5】 考查宾语从句。连接词if /whether引导宾语从句,作动词ask的宾语。句意:在那时,一个男人在她面前停车,并问她是否需要帮忙。
【6】 考查形容词。本句中形容词hungry和poor是并列关系,和look构成系表结构。句意:这位女士变得很紧张,因为这个男人看起来很贫穷很饥饿。
【7】 考查形容词短语。形容词短语be willing to do sth愿意做某事;句意:在这个男人换好轮胎以后, 这位女士愿意付钱给他。
【8】 考查介词短语。介词短语to one's astonishment让某人惊讶的是,该短语中名词astonishment 作介词to的宾语。
【9】 考查介词短语。介词短语in need需要帮助;句意:然而,他只是想她去帮助那些也需要帮助的其 他人。本句中介词短语in need修饰前面的代词others。
【10】 考查时态。句意:她从来没有想到自己所帮助的这位孕妇正是那位贫穷的男人的妻子。根据语境可知,此处应用一般过去时。

Aspirin
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) has been used for many years as a painkiller. It also has an anti-inflammatory (消炎) action and can be used to reduce fever. Aspirin is already recommended for people to prevent stroke and heart attack because it improves one's blood circulation. So many people already take daily aspirin as a heart drug. Although aspirin can cause deadly internal bleeding, which is relatively rare, its benefits for people are great, not only to help increase the length of people's lives, but to prevent and treat cancer, or to stop cancer spread according to the latest research.
Taking a low dose (剂量) of aspirin every day can prevent and Rothwell, from Oxford University, and his colleagues, who carried out the latest work, had already linked aspirin with a lower risk of certain cancers, particularly bowel(肠) cancer. But their previous work suggested people needed to take the drug for about 10 years to get any protection. Now the protective effect occurs much sooner—within three to five years—based on a new analysis of data from 51 trials involving more than 77,000 patients. And aspirin appears not only to reduce the risk of developing many different cancers in the first place, but may also stop cancers spreading around the body.
Taking a low (75 — 300mg) daily dose of aspirin appeared to cut the total number of cancer cases by 25 % after only three years—there were nine cancer cases per 1,000 each year in the aspirin-taking group, compared with 12 per 1,000 for those taking dummy pills. It also reduced the risk of a cancer death by 15% within five years (and sooner if the dose was higher than 300mg). And if patients stayed on aspirin for longer, their cancer death risk went down even further—by 37% after five years.
Low-dose aspirin also appeared to reduce the probability that cancers, particularly bowel, would spread to other parts of the body, and by as much as half in some instances. However, Prof. Rothwell says for most fit and healthy people, the most important things they can do to reduce their lifetime cancer risk is to give up smoking, take exercise and have a healthy diet.
But experts warn that there is still not enough proof to recommend it to prevent cancer cases and deaths and warn that the drug can cause dangerous side effects like stomach bleeding. Prof. Peter Johnson of Cancer Research UK, along with other experts, said it was still a good idea that people thinking of taking aspirin should first consult their doctors because of the possible side effect. And people should get some decisive advice from the government as to whether aspirin should be recommended more widely and the government should also advise the public about the benefits and risks of aspirin.
