97、A new study suggests that how we deal with these incoming messages could be affecting our stress levels and overall health”并结合第三段内容可知，该研究旨在弄清处理电子邮件的方式和压力以及健康的关系，故C项正确。13C考查推理判断。根据第三段Richard MacKinnon所说的话“While email can be a valuable communication tool, its clear that its a source of stress and frus
98、tration for many of us. The people who reported it being most useful to them also reported the highest levels of email pressure”可知，虽然电子邮件是很有用的沟通工具，但又是压力和沮丧的来源；声称电子邮件最有用的人也是承受电子邮件压力最大的人；据此可推知，Richard MacKinnon认为电子邮件是一把双刃剑，故C项正确。14D考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“Half of those surveyed had push notifications(消息推送) set
99、 up for new email, while 62 percent of respondents left their email app open all day and all night. Both were linked to higher levels of email pressure”可知，一半的受访者设置了新的电子邮件推送通知，62%的受访者让他们的电子邮件应用程序全天整夜都开着，这两种习惯都导致更大的压力，比早晚查看电子邮件导致的压力更大，故D项正确。C项是说在工作时间开着电子邮件应用程序，与文意不符，故排除。15B考查文章出处。通读全文可知，文章第一段第二句“A new
100、 study suggests that how we deal with these incoming messages could be affecting our stress levels and overall health”为全文的主题句，据此可知，本文主要介绍了一项新的科学研究：处理电子邮件的方式影响人的压力层级和整体健康。故本文最有可能选自一篇科学报告。第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。2020济南高三模拟 About one hundred years ago many educ
