16、ehold rubbish is collected weekly on your regular collection day.(你的家庭垃圾每周在你的定期收集日收集一次。)”可知,家庭垃圾是每周都会收集。故选C。【2题详解】推理判断题。根据文章Items for curbside collection中介绍的内容“Cardboard-Cereal Boxes, Pasta Boxes, Shoe Boxes, Etc.( 硬纸板箱,意大利面盒,鞋盒等。)”可知回收的东西都是纸质类的,故一本过期的杂志将是回收的对象。故选A。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三行内容“Paper Prod
17、ucts please wrap them in plastic grocery bags to protect from rain and wind.( 纸制品请用塑料购物袋包装,以防止风雨。)”可知,当居民处理可回收物时他们应该把纸制品用塑料袋包起来。故选D。BMost people who go on diets soon gain back any lost weight, a UCLA study suggests.

Even fewer followed dieters for a year or more. Mann wondered what, in the long term, really happens when people go on diets. So she and her student
19、s tracked down 31 studies that, one way or another, had at least one year of follow-up data. They were interested in just one number: the percentage of dieters who, over time, gain back more weight than they lose. “We found that the average percentage of people who gained back more weight than they
20、lost on diets was 41%,” Mann tells WebMD. “In each of the studies, a third to two thirds of the subjects gained back more weight than they lost.”Does this mean that most of the people in the studies actually lost weight and kept it off? No, Mann says. “This is actually bleaker (更不乐观的) than it seemse

25、ar on the psychology of eating when she noticed something odd (奇怪的) about diet studies.”可知,Traci Mann在教一个关于饮食心理学的研讨课时,她注意到饮食研究中的一些奇怪的事情。再根据第二段关键句“Few of the studies followed up on dieters for more than six months. Even fewer followed dieters for a year or more.”可知,Traci Mann发现很少有研究对节食者进行了超过六个月的跟踪调查。
26、跟踪节食者一年或更长时间的人就更少了。由此可推断出,在第二段中我们可以找到关于饮食研究上出现的问题,问题是没有对节食者进行长时间的跟踪调查。故选A项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段关键句“We found that the average percentage of people who gained back more weight than they lost on diets was 41%”可知,通过对31项研究的追踪调查发现,随着时间的推移,有41%的人体重增加了,甚至比他们节食时减少的体重要多。由此可推断出,通过对31项研究的追踪调查发现,几乎一半的节食者体重增加的数量比节食时
27、减少的数量还要多。故选D项。【6题详解】词句猜测题。划线词所在句上一句告诉我们“通过追踪调查发现,有41%的人体重增加了,甚至比他们节食时减少的体重要多”。划线词所在句意为:在每一项研究中,三分之一到三分之二的_体重增加的幅度比他们减掉的要多。通过上句可知,是41%的参加节食减肥的人体重增加了,由此可推断出,划线词所代表的应该是“节食减肥的人”。Dieters意为“节食者,减肥者”,符合句意。故选B项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章内容及第四段关键句“We found that the average percentage of people who gained back more wei
28、ght than they lost on diets was 41%”可知,文章主要讲述了Traci Mann和她的团队通过对31项研究至少一年的追踪调查发现,随着时间的推移,有41%的节食减肥者体重增加的幅度比他们减掉的要多,这个百分比有可能会更多。由此可推断出,文章主要是告我们一个研究结果:节食减肥不会有长久的效果,甚至会反弹。Diets Dont Work Long-term意为“节食减肥不能长久有效”,能够概括文章主旨。故选A项。CAustralia, France or Mars?

(组织者建议申请者考虑一下自己的申请,因为协议没有附带回程票。但还是有成千上万的人同意了)”but表示转折,可推知,组织者对在线调查结果感到意外。故选C。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Thankfully, applications for the program are entirely voluntary an
40、d potential astronauts can”以及后文“at any time during the strict selection process”可知,该计划的申请完全是自愿的,由此推知在严格的选拔过程中,未来的宇航员们可以随时停止执行协议。故画线词意思是“停止执行协议”。故选A。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“The first round is an online application including general information and a one-minute video in which the applicant answers some giv

Even the best astronauts in history can hardly enjoy the silent space.(测试过程的最后一部分是独处的能力。即使是历史上最优秀的宇航员也很难享受这个安静的空间)”可知,对参与者来说,最具挑战性的是他们对独处的长期适应能力。故选D。DGetting rid of dirt, in

Scientifically speaking,

53、38年,法国国王关闭了国内的澡堂。1546年英国国王也是如此。)”可知,这两位国王关闭公共澡堂是因为澡堂洗澡会导致疾病的传播。故选C项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.(法国国王亨利四世是出了名的肮脏。听说一个贵族在洗澡,国王命令贵

100、ed【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者带Jack去看中医,Jack对中药疗效感到惊讶的故事。【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意:看到这个,我主动提出带他去诊所。分析句子可知,句中存在谓语动词offered,且see 与其逻辑主语 I 之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式作状语,位于句首,首字母大写。故将See 改为Seeing。2.考查代词。句意:医生问 Jack ,他是否咳嗽很久了。根据上文的“him”可知,Jack是男孩,作主语用人称代词主格he,故将she改为he。3.考查冠词。句意:医生问 Jack ,他是否咳嗽很久了。分析句子可知,此处a long time是固定搭配意为“很
101、长一段时间”。故在long前加 a。4.考查名词。句意:Jack 立刻点了点头。根据句意可知,此处表示Jack点了点头,head应用单数,故将heads改为head。5.考查连词。句意:医生写了一个处方,处方上写着一些关于如何服用中药的指导。根据句意,此处表示“如何服用中药”,用how“如何”,what“什么”不符合语境。故将what改为how。6.考查介词。句意:当 Jack 尝了药后差点吐了出来。taste表示“品尝”,是及物动词,接宾语无需介词,故去掉tasted后的to。7.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:我用一句老话安慰他,“良药苦口利于病”。描述客观事实用一般现在时,且主语medic
102、ine是单数,谓语相应地用单数,故将tasted改为tastes。8.考查副词。句意:杰克不情愿地吞下了它们。修饰动词用副词作状语,故将unwilling改为unwillingly。9.考查数词。句意:但是三天后他康复了,他对中药的疗效感到惊讶。three days later“三天后”,修饰复数名词days用基数词three。故将third改为three。10. 考查形容词。句意:但是三天后他康复了,他对中药的疗效感到惊讶。分析句子可知,此处形容词修饰人,表示人的感受,使用amazed,amazing修饰物,表示事物的特征,不符题意。故将amazing 改为amazed。第二节 书面表达(满
