【答案】1.B2.A3.C4.D

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科技发展给医疗带来的机遇和挑战。

1.细节理解题。根据文中“Telemedicinecanallowapatienttousetechnologytoseethedoctoronlineandgeta

diagnosis（诊断）andinstructionswithoutleavinghome.”可知，科技允许患者使用科技在线就医并且获得诊断，

即它为病人提供了一种容易得到诊断的方法。故选B。

2.词句猜测题。根据前句"Ausualvisittoadoctorbeginswithareceptionist（接待员）,whocanseeandknow

howapatientisdoing.和Ifsimpossiblethatapatientwebsite...”可猜测出，下划线单词“intuition”的意思应是

“理解能力”。故选A。

3.细节理解题。根据文中"Whensomeonewithoutamedicaldegreeseesaflagged（打记号的）resultwithno

explanationonthewebsite,there'sroomforallkindsofstoriesintheirminds-andalsogreatworry.”可矢口，标t己的

【答案】5.B6.A7.D8.C

【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章大意：智能手机电量不足的警告是大多数人唯一会认真对待的警告，本文

介绍了可以通过关闭哪些功能和设置来延长电池寿命。

66

5.词义猜测题。根据“Theseactivitiesdobumupyourbatterylife,soyouwanttoturnoffwhateveryouaren't

using”可知，此处是在介绍一些耗尽电池寿命的设置，定位服务就是其中一种，所以drains表示"耗尽“，与

“bumup”同义，故选B。

6.细节理解题。根据“Thelongerthescreenisonandthebrighteritis,thefasteryourbatterygoes”可知，屏幕显

示时间越长，屏幕越亮，电池运行的速度就越快，由此可见，小屏幕的电池耗尽就更慢，故选A。

7.推理判断题。根据“Darkeningthescreen,bytheway,iscommonamongteenagers.Butitmakesitreallyhard

fbrMomandDadtoseewhat'sshowingontheirphone”可知，在青少年中，屏幕变暗是很常见的，但是爸爸妈

妈可能很难看到手机上显示的内容，由此可见，老年人往往会使屏幕变亮，故选D。

8.推理判断题。通读全文可知，文中提到了几种延长电池寿命的方式：设置飞行模式，关闭通知和更新，

关掉无线网络和蓝牙设置，C“关闭智能手机上的所有应用程序”是不对的，故选C。

D.Scientistswillfindawaytoimprovehanddryers.

【答案】9.A10.D11.A12.B

【分析】本文介绍了在公共卫生间使用喷射式干手器传播更多的危险细菌。空气干燥器会将有害细菌传播

到整个房间。使用喷射式干手器的人们更容易感染细菌。这主要原因是人们在上完厕所后不正确的洗手方

式导致大量的危险细菌留在人们的手上所致。

9.细节理解题。根据第4段"Thescientistsfoundthatwhenonlythehanddryerwasavailable,theamountof

bacteriaintherestroomswas27timeshigherthanonotherdays.“可知当只有干手器可用时，洗手间细菌更多，

故选Ao

10.细节理解题。根据最后一段“"Theproblemstartsbecausesomepeopledonotwashtheirhandsproperly,...In

otherwords,poorhand-washingleadstoalargeamountofbacteriabeingleftonyourhands.''可知正确的洗手可

以阻止细菌，故选D。

11.篇章结构题。第1段介绍喷射式干手器的好处，方便，人们认为是卫生。第2、3、4和5段介绍了喷

射式干手器不卫生，容易传播细菌。第6和7段介绍人们在上完厕所后不正确地洗手方式，导致了细菌的

存在。故选A。

12.推理判断题。本文介绍了在公共卫生间使用喷射式干手器更容易感染更多的危险细菌，这主要人们在

上完厕所后不正确的洗手方式导致大量的细菌留在你的手上。由此可知，好习惯可以保护你免受危险。故

选B。

【答案】13.D14.A15.D16.B

【分析】本文介绍了发明万维网的发明家TimBerners-Leeo他在21岁时制作了第一台电脑，在1989年发

明了万维网，有助于计算机在互联网上交流。他还免费把这个技术分享给其他人，免费供大家使用。也许

他是世界上最重要的发明家，但不是最出名的发明家。

13.推理判断题。分析第三段中“Heansweredthesamequestionsagainandagain.Ittookalotoftime.Itwaseven

difficultforcomputersinthesameofficeinSwitzerlandtoshareinfbrmation.”可知，Tim花费不少时间去回答关

于电脑的问题，对于用电脑回答这些问题那就更费时间了，所以此处在指的是重复同一个问题的答案，故

选D。

14.细节理解题。根据第四段中“In1989,TimBerners-LeeinventedtheWorldWideWeb(WWW)allbyhimself.

ThishadaspeciallanguagethathelpedcomputerstalktoeachotherontheInternet.“可知，Tim仓U造了万维网，

使互联网交流和信息分享成为了可能，故选A。
