13、。考生在做题时，一定要从整体上把握文章的内容，弄清文章的结构和文章的内在逻辑关系，结合语境辨析所给选项，从中选出最符合语境的选项。例如上文第2题，根据下文的“When she finally hung up and left the_room”可知第2题要填room，表示在房间里与他人通话。 .阅读七选五Study Links Video Game Use to Problems in SchoolA new study warns that too much time spent playing computer games could affect a childs performance
