50、prehensionSectionA【空词预测】第26、27、31题填形容词第28题填副词第29、30、33、35题填动词第32、34题填名词试题解析【话题分类】科技【文章大意】无线电子设备如iPad正在越来越多地被应用到医院的诊疗当中，甚至医学院的课程当中，研究显示这些设备的应用有助于改善医生的工作环境，患者也容易了解自己的病情。【答案解析】26. G)growing。此空为名词popularity的限定词，应是一个带有形容词性质的词汇，备选项A,G,L,N中只有G项growing符合题意。本句意为：电子医疗记录普及率越来越高。27. A)dependent。此空为hospital-base

51、ddoctors的表语，且后面与介词on搭配，在备选项A,L,N中只有A项dependent符合题意。短语bedependentonsth.意为：依赖。此处意思是医院里的医生一天到晚依赖电脑。28. C)fast。此句有一个插入语whichkeepdoctorsfrombesides,其主语为desktops,谓语为giveaway,用了现在进行时。故此空是修饰谓语的，应为副词。备选项C和K中，C项fast符合题意。此句意思是让医生离开病床的台式机在很快让位于无线设备。29. F)give。此空为动词原形和hadto搭配。备选项F项give符合题意。此句意思是随着日常事务的增加，有些事还必须得

52、办。30. H)launch。止匕空为apilotproject的谓语，且前面和helped动词搭配，应为动词原形。只有备选项H项launch符合题意。launchapilotproject意为：开展实验项目。31. N)successful此空为Theexperiment的表语，且为sothat句型的一部分，B,D,E,L,N中只有N项successful符合题意，意思是实验如此成功，以至于。32. I)policyo此空为名词，作adopted的宾语在备选项I,J,M,O当中，和adopted搭配且符合题意的为选项I项policy,意为：采取相同的策略/做法。33. B)designed。

53、止匕空为labcoats的后置定语，其后为pockets。因止匕，labcoatsdesignedwithpockets符合题意，此句中designed为过去分词表不被动。34. O)treatments。此空需要一个和tests并列的名词，作got的宾语。只有备选项O项treatments符合题意。testsandtreatments意为：检查和治疗。35. E)gained。此空为patients的谓语，后面和abetterunderstanding搭配，且时态应为过去时。因此备选项E项gained在语法和意义上与其搭配，意为：有更好的理解。SectionB【话题分类】文学与艺术【文章大意
