  第十一篇

  Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life. In particular, when older patients 47____ of pain, they were told it was a natural part of aging and they would have to learn to live with it.

  Times have changed. Today, we take pain 48____. Indeed, pain is now considered the fifth vital sign, as important as blood pressure, temperature, breathing rate and pulse in 49____ a person’s well-being. We know that chronic (慢性的) pain can disrupt (扰乱) a person’s life, causing problems that 50____ from missed work to depression.

  That’s why a growing number of hospitals now depend upon physicians who 51____ in pain medicine. Not only do we evaluate the cause of the pain, which can help us treat the pain better, but we also help provide comprehensive therapy for depression and other psychological and social 52____ related to chronic pain. Such comprehensive therapy often 53____ the work of social workers, psychiatrists (心理医生) and psychologists, as well as specialists in pain medicine.

  This modern 54____ for pain management has led to a wealth of innovative treatments which are more effective and with fewer side effects than ever before. Decades ago, there were only a 55____ number of drugs available, and many of them caused 56____ side effects in older people, including dizziness and fatigue. This created a double-edged sword: the medications helped relieve the pain but caused other problems that could be worse than the pain itself.

  J) limited

  K) gravely

  L) complained

  M) respect

  N) prompting

  O) specialize

  参考答案及解析

  47题: when older patients __47__ of pain,前面是patients为复数名词,后面是of,确定应填入一个动词;后半句为they were told告诉我们填入过去时动词,满足此题的单词分别是:J) limited L)complained E)relieved,根据本句中的pain(痛苦),确定L)complained(抱怨)与pain(痛苦)的感情方向一致。

  48题:前面是we take pain __48__,确定应填入副词来修饰take,满足的单词有

  G) seriously严肃的K) gravely,由于是pain(痛苦),搭配严肃,如果这两个单词都不认识也是2猜1。

  49题:in __49__ a person’s well-being.,我们知道,in后面跟两种词性,名词或动名词,比如spend time in doing sth,所以满足的单词有I) determining决定,确定 N)prompting,2猜1。

  50题:causing problems that __50__ from missed work to depression.,由于有from---to---,所以填入动词单配这两个介词,由于没有任何特殊信息词,本题填入一个动词原形,由于前面是problems这个复数,所以排掉B)involves,满足的只有O) specialize ,D)range,两个都不认识,先放着不管,待会再结合处理。

  51题:now depend upon physicians who __51__ in pain medicine,后面是in,确定填动词搭配in,前面是physicians who,人作主语,并且是复数,所以必须是动词原形,满足的单词依然是O) specialize ,D)range,我们可以将50和51题全部填入O) specialize,结果是必对一道,有时候放弃是为了得到。

  52题:other psychological and social __52__,前面是psychological and social这两个形容词,空内应该填入名词,由于是other,要求我们填入一个名词复数,满足的只有一个单词F)issues B)involves,二选一,别着急,让我们看下一道题。

  53题:Such comprehensive therapy often __53__ the work,前面是often,要求空内填入实义动词,Such comprehensive therapy明显是单数,不认识也无所谓,确定空内的填入的单三形式的动词,满足的是F)issues B)involves,知道怎么样最功利吗?那就是这道题和上面的52题都填入其中一个,结果依然必对一道!!!

  54题:This modern __54__ for pain management,前面是形容词modern,要求填入名词被它修饰,满足的是A)result结果 M)respect(尊重),空后是介词for ,有一点基础的人都知道M) respect(尊重)最搭配for,所以也就排除了它作为动词原形的可能性,所以现在知道我为什么将51题的满足单词固定为O) specialize ,D)range了吗?

  55题:there were only a __55__ number of drugs available,根据后面的名词number,和前面的a,我们确定天形容词修饰number,满足的有C) significant H)magnificent J) limited有限的,同学们,看到了only了吗?答案是 limited有限的。

  56题:and many of them caused __56__ side effects,后面是名词概念side effects,填入形容词来修饰吧!满足的只有C) significant H)magnificent J),2猜1吧,结合49题2猜1,几率是两道2猜1,两道可以对一道。

  第十二篇

  Perhaps like most Americans you have some extra pounds to 47 . You may even have tried a fad diet or two, but found yourself right back where you started. The key to weight loss is regular 48 activity. And surprisingly, you don't have to give up eating or make the gym your second home to see long-term, 49 effects.

  You body needs a certain amount of energy to maintain basic 50 such as breathing, blood circulation and digestion. The energy required to keep your organs functioning is referred to as the resting or basal metabolic rate.

  Any time you are active, 51 energy is required. It is obtained from glycogen and fat stored in the blood, liver, and muscles. The key to losing weight is to draw on the fat rather than on the carbohydrate reserves.

  Which of the two energy sources you use depends on the intensity and 52 of your activity. The higher the intensity, the more your body will pull from the stored carbohydrates. The lower the intensity, the more your body will 53 on fat as its fuel.

  Aerobic exercise is most 54 for weight loss. When you perform aerobic activities you 55 contract large muscle groups such as your legs and arms. Walking, running, rollerblading, swimming, dancing, and jumping jacks are all forms of aerobic activity.

  Surprisingly, if your aerobic activity is low to moderately intense and of long duration, you will burn more fat than if you had 56 in a short burst of high-intensity exercise. In short, a brisk 30-minute walk will burn fat while a 100-yard sprint will burn glycogen.

  [A] positive[B] additional[C] duration[D] effective [E] shed [F] physical

  [G] food [H] functions [I] participated [J] rely [K] cut [L] repeatedly

  [M] uses [N] little [O] obvious

  参考答案及解析

  47. E 该空需填入动词原形,结合原意“和大多数美国人一梯状,你(的体重)可能也有几磅需要________”可知,E(去除)最符合文意。

  48. F 结合常识和下文可知,F最符合文意。

  49. A 结合句意“令人惊奇的是,为了看到长期________效果你不必节食或常去健身馆”,可知空格处需填一形容词,初选后留下A、D。由于下文只是讲到运动会帮助减肥,但并未说明它的效果明显,所以此处宜选用意思上更宽泛的positive(正面的,有效的)。

  50. H 下文举例的breathing, blood circulation and digestion都是人体的基本功能,且其后的functioning已给出了提示,故H最符合文意。

  51. B 该空需填入形容词,结合常识和句意“任何时候只要你活动,你都需要________能量”来看选项,B(额外的)符合文意。

  52. C 该句句意为“采用这两种能量消耗来源中的哪一种取决于你活动的强度和________”,结合下文提到的...low to moderately intense and of long duration...可知C最符合文意。

  53. J 结合句意“(活动的)强度越低,身体越________于脂肪作为其燃料”,该空应填入能和on搭配的动词,J最符合文意。

  54. D 结合常识可知,有氧运动是最有效的减肥方式,选项中D最符合文意。

  55. L 该空需填入副词,选项中只有L和N可作副词,由下文提到的walking, running, swimming, dancing, and jumping等可推知在这些有氧运动中四肢的活动是反复的,故排除N。

  56. I 该空需填入动词的过去分词,结合句意“如果你已经________高强度、爆发性的运动,你会燃烧更多的脂肪”可知I最符合文意。
