25、womens drinking limit D. call for more care for pregnant women in society答案: NICE建议孕期女士不要饮酒。文中涉及到了英国不同健康机构以及英国政府对孕妇饮酒事宜的不同规定,但是同时指出了孕妇饮酒会对胎儿有不良的影响,从而呼吁孕妇限制饮酒甚至不要饮酒。同时,NICE还对怀孕和准备怀孕的女士保健工作提出了一些其他的建议,提倡社会各方面来关注孕妇的健康。41. C。事实细节题。题干考查the Department of Health关于孕妇喝酒的建议,文中第二段说到“The Department of Health in
26、England changed its guidance last year, calling for no drinking while pregnant or while trying to get pregnant.”可以看出,该机构现在呼吁孕妇在怀孕期间不要喝酒,因此C项正确。42. B。词义猜测题。根据词汇所在的句子“The experts said there was no evidence that several ounces once or twice a week would do any harm to the baby but could not categorical
27、ly rule out any risk.”的句意:专家认为没有证据表明一周内喝一次或两次几盎司的就会对胎儿造成伤害,但是不能(categorically)排除任何危险。根据下段的最后一句the risk to her baby is small可知少量的饮酒对胎儿会造成比较微小的伤害,所以categorically在这里意为“完全地”,也就是说,专家认为没有证据表明一周内喝一次或两次几盎司的就会对胎儿造成伤害,但是不能完全排除危险。43. D。事实细节题。根据文章第五段的“About 20,000 pregnancies each year are affected by diabetes
28、and, therefore, carry higher risk of miscarriage and still birth.”可以看出,患有糖尿病的孕妇有着很高的流产风险,所以应该选D。44. B。推理判断题。文中的第四段是National Childbirth Trust的发现,根据“. agreed women should limit their drinking during pregnancy. Pregnant women who have had a few drinks often worry a great deal about whether they have ha
29、rmed their baby.”可以看出,即使喝酒不多的孕妇也会很担心喝酒会对胎儿不利,所以B正确。A项是不完整的,文中说“In general, it is believed that if a light, infrequent drinker, in good health, drinks to the point of drunkenness on one occasion, the risk to her baby is small.”可知对胎儿造成比较微小的危险的怀孕妇女有以下特征:light, infrequent drinker, in good health, on one
30、 occasion,而此选项只是断章取义,所以错误,同理,D项也由此判断为错误选项。45. A。作者意图猜测题。作者刚开始介绍了NICE关于孕妇饮酒的新的规定,然后第五段NICE提出了一些关爱英国怀孕妇女的建议,所以应该选A。4基础写作 写作内容 假如你的美国朋友John想了解有关2010年在广州召开的第16届亚运会的一些情况,现在让你给他写一封信介绍第16届广州亚运会会徽及意义,信件内容应包含以下内容: 1太阳,意味着亚运会充满活力; 2五羊标志,代表广州及其人民的美好愿望: 3四条跑道和五羊结合成燃烧的火炬,象征燃烧着的亚运会圣火: 4会徽里的文字表示第16届亚运会举办的地点和时间。 写作
