Ⅳ.任务型读写
请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
注意:每个空格只填1个单词。
Throw the bottles and boxes of drugs out of your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.
Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, xrays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors (肿瘤).
We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some “everyday complaints” such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance (物质) which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.
Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is common knowledge that except when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.
Title: Health and Healing at Your Fingertips
35.________ to a new theory A new theory argues that doing Yoga 36.________can keep people healthy while medicine might do 37.________ to people’s health.
Support of medical treatment · People should 38.________medicine as it is very useful for killing pain.
· Medicine is effective and scientifically proven while Yoga is a kind of spiritual method and doing Yoga is only a 39.________of time.
· Illnesses 40.________
HIV/AIDS and cancer can only be treated with drugs.
Support of Yoga · Doing Yoga is safer and not as 41.________ as taking medicine.
· Most of the medicines that patients with some 42.________diseases use are to ease their pain and their sufferings but can not cure them.
· Yoga has no side effects and also there is a 43.________explanation. It can restore the energy flow in people’s bodies, which can 44.________ our emotions, overcome the hardships of life, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.
答案
课时作业(十八)
.1.A 考查介词短语辨析。out of range表示“不在射程以内”;out of reach表示“够不着”;out of control表示“无法控制”。英语中不说out of distance,故可首先排除。根据问句中的shoot the bird可知答案是A。
2.A 考查动词短语辨析。die down表示“逐渐减弱/平息,(声音)静下来”;die out表示“(动物、植物物种)灭绝,(火)熄灭,(风俗、习惯等)逐渐消失”;die away表示“(风、光等)渐弱/消失”;die off表示“(一群生物)先后死去”。根据句意应选A。
3.C 考查动词辨析。pass多指用手传递物品或口头传递信息等;relay一般指无线电等转播或把消息分程传递到某地;deliver多指将信件、包裹等物品发送出去或交到某地;release表示“释放”。根据句意“你们曾承诺马上送货上门,但至今我们未收到任何东西”可知,答案是C。
4.B 考查recommend的用法。recommend后接动词,只能接v.ing形式,即recommend doing sth.,所以答案为B。
5.A 考查反意疑问句。当主句的主语不是第一人称, 谓语动词为think, suppose,believe,imagine,expect等,这类句型的反意疑问句要随着主句而变化。由于该主句的主语是第三人称的she,所以反意疑问句要随着主句而变化。故答案应是A。
6.A 考查固定句式。It's like/unlike sb.(to do sth.)是一个固定句式,表示“(做某事)像/不像某人的所为”。句意:你不是一个安静的人啊——你还好吗,亲爱的?
7.C 考查名词辨析。response表示“反应”;caution表示“谨慎,小心”;tendency表示“趋势”;tone表示“语调,语气”。根据常识判断可知,有一种趋势是把钱看得比生活质量重要,故选C。
8.D 考查倒装句的用法。here和there引导的倒装句只能用一般现在时或一般过去时。根据句首的Look可知,这里只能用一般现在时表示现在发生的事。故答案为D。
9.A 考查动词辨析。refresh意为“使振作精神”;drown意为“淹死,溺死”;astonish意为“使吃惊”;bend意为“弯曲”。从语境来看,选A。
10.A 含有ever的特殊疑问词如:whatever, whenever, whichever, wherever, whoever等词既可以引导让步状语从句又可以引导名词性从句,而其相对应的no matter what/when/which/where/who等只能引导让步状语从句,不能引导名词性从句。故选A。
Ⅱ.孩子的行为给作者带来了无尽的折磨,作者常常以泪洗面,但是 擦干眼泪,她仍一如既往地履行母亲的责任。毕业典礼上,当孩子把玫瑰送给她时,她情不能已,流下了幸福的眼泪。
11.C 第一段中提到作者在洗涤间泪流满面,再结合本句前半句中的内容可知作者“倒”在了地上。sink to the floor表示“倒在地上”。
12.B 上一段的后半部分中提到他的牛仔裤和衬衫上到处都是烧的洞,由此可知Brett经常“毁坏,糟蹋”东西。C项表示“撕毁”,D项表示“打破”,都与第一段后半部分中的内容不符。
13.A 根据Brett烧毁衣服的这种行为和第二段第三句可推知他经常把房间中几乎所有的东西搞得乱七八糟。此处out of order表示“出故障,不整洁”。out of place表示“不合适,不协调,格格不入”;out of trouble表示“脱离困境”;out of danger表示“脱离危险”,都不符合语境。
