DCBB解析：10.D推断题。由最后一段我们可以看出作者主要针对糖尿病人。11.C细节题。由Itcontainsusefulinformationandmayhelpyoutalktoyourdoctor可知答案。12.B词义题。从第一段我们知道，作者希望糖尿病人注意自己的胆固醇数字，接下来，作者在第二段提醒人们要一本免费的ChoLESterol，因此我们可以推断ChoLESterol是向人们介绍如何降低胆固醇的。13.B推断题。在本文中作者首先提出让人们注意胆固醇数字，接着向人们介绍ChoLESterol，因此作者写这篇文章的目的是帮助那些胆固醇数字高的人们。8._____wemovethepictureoverthere?Doyouthinkit’lllookbetter?[

]A.Until

B.Whatabout

D.Whatif答案：D9.Oneofourrulesisthateverystudent

wearschooluniformwhileatschool.A．mightB．couldC．shallD．will答案：C解析：shall用于第二、第三人称，表示说话人给对方命令、警告、允诺或威胁。这儿是说根据学校规定学生在校时都必须要穿校服。【考点】情态动词10.SincethenI

amemberofthefamilyandnever

fromthem.A．havebecome;willIseparateB．havebecome;IwillseparateC．havebeen;willbeseparatedD．havebeen;Iwasseparated答案：C解析：选C。以sincethen为标志，此句应用现在时态。have后应接持续性动词故不能选，become为中止性动词；never为标志，应用倒装句。11.Idon'tthinkmath_____.答案：D12.Policehavefound________appearstobethelostancientstatue.A．whichB．whereC．howD．what答案：D解析：及物动词found后面显然是一个宾语从句，而从句中缺少主语，所以正确答案锁定连接代词which和what，其中，which引导宾语从句时，意思是“哪一个；哪一些”，用以要求某人在有限数量中指明某人或某事物；what引导宾语从句时，意思是“……的事物”。句中没有给出具体的数量，故选D。句意：警察已经找到了好像是失踪的古代雕像的东西。【考点定位】本题考查宾语从句的连接词。13.TheydecidedtocyclealongtheMekongRiverfrom_____itbeginsto_____itends.答案：B14.I____alongthestreetlookingforaplacetoparkwhentheaccident____.答案：C15.短文改错。

Iwould

Bestaying.A．whatB．whenC．whereD．Which答案：C解析：考查定语从句。本题考查定语从句，what不能用于定语从句，排除A；先行词是thehouse，指地点，排除B；stay是不及物动词，“待在某地”应该是stayat/insp，本句没有介词，因此定语从句是主谓结构，不缺少宾语，排除D；故用where。故选C。【考点定位】定语从句。20.—_________rapidprogresstheyhavemade!
