It's said that you don't know a man until you walk a mile in his shoes. And you also don't know what it's like for old people to travel until you accompany（陪伴）one on a trip.
After flying with my elderly father from Washington, D.C.to L.A.in July, I began to realize that a companion has important tasks that can make a journey easier for old people. I booked nonstop tickets on JetBlue to avoid tiring, confusing connections, and we flew directly into Long Beach Airport. Even though my father could walk, I arranged with the airline for wheelchair assistance, which meant we got on board first.
When I took him back to the airport for his return flight to Washington, I got permission from JetBlue to wait with him at the gate instead of saying goodbye at the security checkpoint. I wished he'd had a first-class seat and access to a comfortable airline club. Better yet, I wished I had flown with him on both ways. As I watched the attendant wheel him to the lift that would take him from the tarmac（停机坪）to the plane, I felt like an anxious mom sending her child to school for the first time.
Things can go awry on a plane trip. And then there is a horrifying story about Joe and Margie. When they landed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a wheelchair attendant met them to help with a connection. But somehow Margie, who had Alzheimer's disease, disappeared.
I didn't need to worry about my father's wandering away；at 82, his mind was sharper than mine. But his hearing was poor, so I worried about what would happen if he missed an important announcement.
Fortunately, everything went just fine. A good arrangement（安排）made the trip successful.
Next time I travel with a senior, I'll know better. I hope there will be a next time.
4. Why did the author buy nonstop tickets？
A. His father was tired of flights.
B. He had important tasks to do.
C. He cared about his father.
D. His schedule was tight.
5. How did the author feel when seeing his father off？
A. Disappointed. B. Worried.
C. Delighted. D. Sad.
6. Which of the following can replace the underlined part "go awry" in Paragraph 4？
A. Be amused.
B. Carry on as usual.
C. Live up to one's expectation.
D. Be away from the correct course.
7. What can we learn from Paragraph 5？
A. Taking a trip does great good to seniors.
B. It is a pleasant experience to travel with seniors.
C. To have a long journey with seniors is unpractical.
D. Careful planning ensures seniors to take a nice trip.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文，作者通过陪同父亲乘坐飞机的经历，得出结论：要为老人出行做好准备。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的"I booked nonstop tickets on JetBlue to avoid tiring，confusing connections"可知，作者购买直达的机票，是为了让父亲在乘飞机的途中不那么辛苦，故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段As I watched the attendant wheel him to the lift that would take him from the tarmac（停机坪）to the plane, I felt like an anxious mom sending her child to school for the first time.可知，目送服务员把父亲送上飞机时，作者感觉自己像一个第一次送孩子上学的妈妈那样，由此可知，作者的心中满是担心和焦虑，故选B。

C
Even though water covers about 71 percent of the Earth’s surface, not all of it is safe to drink. In fact, less than three percent is fresh water, according to the United States Bureau of Reclamation. Most of the water is contained in the oceans and must be desalinated (脱盐)for use. Now researchers from MIT have developed a suitcase-sized desalination device that could be used to produce clean drinking water.
The new portable device produces water that actually goes beyond the World Health Organization standards, just by pushing a button, according to a press release from MIT. There are no filters required. The device powered by a small portable solar panel uses electricity to remove salt and other particles from the saltwater. This eliminates the need for repeatedly checking or repairing it.
Now most available portable desalination units use filters that require high-pressure pumps to push the water, which makes them heavier and less energy efficient. The filterless feature of the new device will allow it to be used in faraway places or places with limited resources like small islands and ships, and even for emergencies.
“This is really the highest point of a 10-year journey that I and my group have been on. We worked for years on the physics behind individual desalination processes, but pushing all those advances into a box, building a system, and testing it in the ocean were really meaningful experiences for me,” says Jongyoon Han, the senior author of the study.
After the researchers ran tests in the lab, the device was ready for field tests. At Boston’s Carson Beach, the device filled a plastic drinking cup with clear, drinkable water in just half an hour. Now the researchers are still working on a final design that could use cheaper materials so that it can be available to the general public, and a new model of the device could be ready by the end of 2022. This small but powerful desalination unit may be the key to bringing safe water to a thirsty world.
8. What does the underlined word “eliminates” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Proves. B. Creates. C. Satisfies. D. Removes.
9. What can we infer about the device from Paragraph 3
A. It allows high production of clean water. B. It makes a breakthrough in application
C. It may provide power for faraway places D. It can replace most desalination devices.
10. What do Jongyoon Han’s words suggest
A. The public thinks highly of the device
B. The testing system for the device has been out of date.
C. Developing the device is challenging but worthwhile.
D. Further studies are needed before marketing the device.
11. Which aspect of the device are the researchers trying to improve
A. Its affordability. B. The energy it needs.
C. Its performance in dry areas. D. The purity of the water it produces.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲麻省理工学院的研究人员已经开发出一种手提箱大小的脱盐装置，可以用来生产清洁的饮用水。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第二段“There are no filters required. The device powered by a small portable solar panel uses electricity to remove salt and other particles from the saltwater. (该装置由一个小型便携式太阳能电池板供电，利用电力去除盐水中的盐和其他微粒)”以及第三段“Now most available portable desalination units use filters that require high-pressure pumps to push the water, which makes them heavier and less energy efficient. (现在大多数便携式脱盐装置都使用需要高压泵推动水的过滤器，这使得它们更重，能效更低)”可知，与以前的设备对比，新设备更简单更轻更有效，能“消除”反复检查或维修这些问题。所以推测eliminate是“消除，排除”的意思。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段“The filterless feature of the new device will allow it to be used in faraway places or places with limited resources like small islands and ships, and even for emergencies.(新设备的无过滤器功能将允许它用于遥远的地方或资源有限的地方，如小岛屿和船只，甚至用于紧急情况)”可知，新设备在运用的场地方面有了突破。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第四段“‘This is really the highest point of a 10-year journey that I and my group have been on. We worked for years on the physics behind individual desalination processes, but pushing all those advances into a box, building a system, and testing it in the ocean were really meaningful experiences for me,’ says Jongyoon Han, the senior author of the study.(该研究的资深作者Jongyoon Han说：“这真的是我和我的团队十年旅程中的最高点。我们多年来一直致力于个体脱盐过程背后的物理研究，但把所有这些进展都推到一个盒子里，建立一个系统，并在海洋中进行测试，对我来说是非常有意义的经历。”)”可知，整个研发过程持续十年说明这项目很有挑战性，但Jongyoon Han也认为这很有意义，是值得的。故选C项。
11题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段“ Now the researchers are still working on a final design that could use cheaper materials so that it can be available to the general public, and a new model of the device could be ready by the end of 2022. (现在，研究人员仍在研究最终设计，该设计可以使用更便宜的材料，以便公众可以使用，2022年底，该设备的新型号可能会准备就绪)”可知，现在研究者正在考虑价格问题，准备使用更便宜材料以致于公众能够购买得起。故选A项。
D
China will give the green light to Internet medical services conducted by medical institutions as part of a broader push to promote Internet Plus Healthcare, which was decided at a State Council executive meeting held by Premier Li Keqiang.
Medical institutions will be allowed to provide online diagnostic services for patients with common and chronic diseases in their follow up visits to their doctors. The top levels of hospitals will be encouraged to provide online services, including consultations (会诊), reservations and test result inquiries.
As China joins the ranks of middle income countries, the demand for health services has increased accordingly. Internet Plus Healthcare can help reduce the problem of inaccessible and expensive public health services that have long been a big concern for the general public.
One decision coming out of the meeting says the intelligent review of health insurance will be applied and that the one stop settlement will be advanced. The real time sharing of prescription and drug retail sales will be explored as well.
“We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures once the decision is made，” Li said. “In recent years, top level hospitals in major cities have seen steady increases in the number of patients. Medical bills have become a heavy burden on families and high end medical resources still fall short of meeting the growing demand of the public.”
To solve the problem, a two pronged (双管齐下的) approach must be taken. One is to establish medical partnerships to strengthen cooperation between major hospitals and community clinics. The other is to bring forward Internet Plus Healthcare to promote the sharing of quality medical resources.
The government will see to it that long distance healthcare services cover all county level hospitals. So more efforts will be made to ensure that high speed broadband network will be extended to cover medical institutions in urban and rural areas. Dedicated Internet access services will be set up to meet the needs for long distance healthcare services.
12. According to the text, which of the following services won't a patient enjoy online
A. Asking doctors for advice after the test.
B. Receiving a medical operation.
C. Knowing their situation about the disease.
D. Making an appointment with a doctor in advance.
13. What makes the demand for health services increase in China
A. The improvement of people's life quality.
B. The recognition of health insurance.
C. The expense of medical care.
D. The inconvenience of hospital equipment.
14. What does Li mean by saying “We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures”？
A. The bills are impossible to afford.
B. The measures are perfectly worked out.
C. The situations need urgent improvement.
D. The hospitals are unwilling to admit patients.
15. What can be the suitable title for the text
A. Modern Hospitals
B. Wide Applications of Internet Medical Services
C. No More Burden for General People
D. Online Healthcare on Its Way
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了李克强总理在国务院常务会议上决定推动“互联网+医疗”的服务，鼓励高等级医院提供在线服务，包括咨询、预约和测试结果查询。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“The top levels of hospitals will be encouraged to provide online services, including consultations, reservations and test result inquiries.”（将鼓励最高级别的医院提供在线服务，包括咨询、预约和测试结果查询。），可知B项“接受医疗手术”未提及。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“As China joins the ranks of middle income countries, the demand for health services has increased accordingly.”（随着中国加入中等收入国家行列，对医疗服务的需求也相应增加。），可知人们生活质量的提高使得对医疗服务的需求增加。故选A项。
【14题详解】
句意猜测题。由倒数第三段中的“We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures once the decision is made”（一旦做出决定，我们就必须不失时机地推进这些措施。）和“Medical bills have become a heavy burden on families and high end medical resources still fall short of meeting the growing demand of the public.”（医疗费用已经成为家庭的沉重负担，高端医疗资源仍然无法满足公众日益增长的需求。），可知医疗服务的形势急需改善。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“China will give the green light to Internet medical services conducted by medical institutions as part of a broader push to promote Internet Plus Healthcare, which was decided at a State Council executive meeting held by Premier Li Keqiang.”（国务院总理李克强在国务院常务会议上决定，中国将为医疗机构开展互联网医疗服务开绿灯，作为推动互联网+医疗的更广泛努力的一部分。）和最后一段中的“So more efforts will be made to ensure that high speed broadband network will be extended to cover medical institutions in urban and rural areas. Dedicated Internet access services will be set up to meet the needs for long distance healthcare services.”（因此，将进一步努力确保高速宽带网络覆盖城乡医疗机构。将建立专门的互联网接入服务，以满足远程医疗服务的需要。），可知互联网医疗服务正在发展中。故选D项。

Can't Resist Junk Food Study Suggests You Try This Simple Trick
You're tired and hungry. Then you catch a whiff of something delicious, probably fried and almost certainly fattening. It is fried chicken!____16____A new research says that exposing to the smell of junk food for at least two minutes can actually help you make healthier food choices.
Let's take a closer look at this process. Have you ever noticed that whatever appetizing treat catches your nose's attention tends to be most appealing just after you first smell it What will happen if you're standing in line after a couple of minutes ____17____ And recent science says that this is actually the right moment to walk away.
The results of a series of experiments, including field studies at a supermarket and at a middle school cafeteria, show that extended exposure (of more than two minutes) to junk food smell (e. g,cookie smell) leads to lower purchases of unhealthy foods compared with healthy smell (e.g.strawberry smell).____18____That is why long exposure to junk food smell can be as satisfactory as actually having it in your mouth, which in turn decreases the desire for consumption of junk food.
____19____When the exposure to smell of healthy food were examined, food choices were not profoundly influenced. The reason for this is that healthy food are not connected with reward in our brain and therefore have little influence on what we desire.
So next time you're feeling you don't have the will power to resist that French fries, it might be as simple as sitting there and smelling all that sweetness for just a minute or two. ____20____
A. But wait a minute before you order.
B. It's a response that has been researched.
C. Get the satisfaction with none of the calories.
D. It isn't quite as irresistible as it was just moments ago.
E. However, it's not the same case with smell of healthy food.
F. It's the same as actually eating it because your desire to eat it is satisfied.
G. The brain doesn't necessarily distinguish between a pleasurable smell or taste.
【答案】16. A 17. D 18. G 19. E 20. F
【解析】
【分析】本文为说明文，介绍了几项抵制垃圾食品诱惑的技巧。
【16题详解】
根据下一句“A new research says that exposing to the smell of junk food for at least two minutes can actually help you make healthier food choices."可知，暴露在垃圾食品中至少两分钟会帮助你选择健康食品，所以本句与等待时间有关，表达“但是在预定之前先等一下”。故A选项“但是在预定之前先等一下”切题。故选A。
【17题详解】
根据前文连发的两个问句可知，垃圾食品在第一次被闻到时非常吸引人，那么在排队等了几分钟之后会发生什么呢 根据下一句可知，这恰恰是要离开的时刻，可知，本句在表达“它已经不像几分钟之前那么不可抗拒了。”故D选项“它已经不像几分钟之前那么不可抗拒了”切题。故选D。
【18题详解】
根据本段开头提示，可知一系列的实验结果表明暴露在垃圾食品的气味中多于两分钟后会导致垃圾食品购买量的下降，在进行客观结果描述，所以排除易错选项F，同时，下一句在解释闻到气味就如同嘴巴吃到了一样满足。可知空处所在句要表达大脑对味觉和嗅觉区分不明显。故G选项“大脑对味觉和嗅觉区分不明显”切题。故选选G。
【19题详解】
从下一句“当检测健康食物的气味时，食物选择并没有受到很大的影响。”可以得知空格内容与健康食物的气味相关，并且表达转折的语义。故E选项“然而，健康食物的味道就不一样了。”切题。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据前句“it might be as simple as sitting there and smelling all that sweetness for just a minute or two."（最简单的方法是坐在那里闻上一两分钟香甜的味道）与选项中“It’s the same as actually eating it because your desire to eat it is satisfied. (闻到味道与吃到它是一样可以满足愿望的。)承接自然，话题一致。故选F。

【答案】Dear Editor,
I’ve learned that our English Post is being reformed and one of the three columns is to be replaced by a new one. I’m writing this e-mail to share with you my opinions.
Needless to say, the columns will definitely be designed according to students’ interest and have positive effects on their study and life.
Compared to the entertainment, I hold the view that the value of the columns concerning health and culture is more important. The main factor is that it is of great significance to keep healthy while loss of health means kissing goodbye to life. Consequently, more knowledge of how to keep fit can improve the quality of life. In addition, the progress in acquiring cultures contributes to broadening one’s horizons, which in turn is beneficial to one’s study and the establishment of philosophy of life.
Furthermore, the career planning should be taken into account in the school English Post. On the one hand, it covers one’s career development a great deal .On the other hand, it makes a great difference to one’s career success in the future.
What has been mentioned above is my personal ideas. Here I am in the hope that my advice will add a brilliant touch to the improved version of our school English Post.
Yours sincerely,
Cheng Fei

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段话，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A Change of Heart
It was a cold December and things were tough for my family. Mum had a hard time raising us kids on her own in our small community of New Westminster as dad passed away five years earlier. We relied on social assistance.
Looking back, I realize what Mum went through sending us kids to school. Every morning she would place a new piece of cardboard in our shoes because our soles (鞋底) were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have French toast ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those days, and it didn’t look like we’d be in our current house much longer. Rent was $25 a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would be forced to leave right after Christmas on the first of January.
The holidays were fast approaching, and we were entitled to $25 for Christmas from social services. Mum said that instead of buying food, she was going to use the money to pay our rent. That way we’d have a roof over our heads for a little while longer. Then she told us that there would be no Christmas gifts.
Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas trees, shoveling (铲) snow and doing odd jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch, Top-Genuine, Pierre Paris boots, and they cost $23.
The big day for getting my boots came on Christmas Eve afternoon. I was very excited as I hurried up the road to catch the bus into town. It was only a half-mile walk, but on the way I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then I realized that at our house, we had no lights, no decorations and no turkey or ham for Christmas dinner.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150词左右;2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
As I continued walking, I began to feel a strange sense of guilt.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
The bus drove off without me, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Para. 1:
As I continued walking, I began to feel a strange sense of guilt. Here I was going to buy a new pair of boots, while Mum was probably home in tears, thinking of ways to explain why there were no presents. How was I supposed to be happy if everyone else in the family was not Thinking of this, the idea of buying the beautiful boots I had wanted for so long didn’t seem as fascinating as before. As I arrived at the bus stop, the driver opened the door, waiting for me to get on. I stood there for what seemed like a century, until eventually the driver asked, “Son, are you getting on this bus or not ” I finally burst out without hesitation, “No thanks, sir. I’ve changed my mind.”
Para. 2:
The bus drove off without me, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Feeling as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders, I knew what I had to do next. Across the street from the bus stop was a big grocery store. Into the store I went, brimming with happiness and excitement. I bought a turkey, ham, oranges and all the Christmas decorations. I spent every coin of my hard-earned money. Once I arrived home with all those purchases, I knocked on the door. I could hardly wait to see my mother’s face! When Mum opened the door, some of the groceries fell inside onto the floor, and she just stood there, too stunned to speak. Holding back the tears, I exclaimed, “Merry Christmas, Mother! There really is a Santa Claus!” To see my mother’s prayers answered more than made up for the boots I never got. It was a Merry Christmas for us after all!

It's said that you don't know a man until you walk a mile in his shoes And you also don't know what it's like for old people to travel until you accompany（陪伴）one on a trip.
After flying with my elderly father from Washington, D.C.to L.A.in July, I began to realize that a companion has important tasks that can make a journey easier for old people. I booked nonstop tickets on JetBlue to avoid tiring, confusing connections, and we flew directly into Long Beach Airport. Even though my father could walk, I arranged with the airline for wheelchair assistance, which meant we got on board first.
When I took him back to the airport for his return flight to Washington, I got permission from JetBlue to wait with him at the gate instead of saying goodbye at the security checkpoint. I wished he'd had a first-class seat and access to a comfortable airline club. Better yet, I wished I had flown with him on both ways. As I watched the attendant wheel him to the lift that would take him from the tarmac（停机坪）to the plane, I felt like an anxious mom sending her child to school for the first time.
Things can go awry on a plane trip. And then there is a horrifying story about Joe and Margie. When they landed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, a wheelchair attendant met them to help with a connection. But somehow Margie, who had Alzheimer's disease, disappeared.
I didn't need to worry about my father's wandering away；at 82, his mind was sharper than mine. But his hearing was poor, so I worried about what would happen if he missed an important announcement.
Fortunately, everything went just fine. A good arrangement（安排）made the trip successful.
Next time I travel with a senior, I'll know better. I hope there will be a next time.
4. Why did the author buy nonstop tickets？
A. His father was tired of flights.
B. He had important tasks to do.
C. He cared about his father.
D. His schedule was tight.
5. How did the author feel when seeing his father off？
A. Disappointed. B. Worried.
C. Delighted. D. Sad.
6. Which of the following can replace the underlined part "go awry" in Paragraph 4？
A. Be amused.
B. Carry on as usual.
C. Live up to one's expectation.
D. Be away from the correct course.
7. What can we learn from Paragraph 5？
A. Taking a trip does great good to seniors.
B. It is a pleasant experience to travel with seniors.
C. To have a long journey with seniors is unpractical.
D. Careful planning ensures seniors to take a nice trip.
C
Even though water covers about 71 percent of the Earth’s surface, not all of it is safe to drink. In fact, less than three percent is fresh water, according to the United States Bureau of Reclamation. Most of the water is contained in the oceans and must be desalinated (脱盐)for use. Now researchers from MIT have developed a suitcase-sized desalination device that could be used to produce clean drinking water.
The new portable device produces water that actually goes beyond the World Health Organization standards, just by pushing a button, according to a press release from MIT. There are no filters required. The device powered by a small portable solar panel uses electricity to remove salt and other particles from the saltwater. This eliminates the need for repeatedly checking or repairing it.
Now most available portable desalination units use filters that require high-pressure pumps to push the water, which makes them heavier and less energy efficient. The filterless feature of the new device will allow it to be used in faraway places or places with limited resources like small islands and ships, and even for emergencies.
“This is really the highest point of a 10-year journey that I and my group have been on. We worked for years on the physics behind individual desalination processes, but pushing all those advances into a box, building a system, and testing it in the ocean were really meaningful experiences for me,” says Jongyoon Han, the senior author of the study.
After the researchers ran tests in the lab, the device was ready for field tests. At Boston’s Carson Beach, the device filled a plastic drinking cup with clear, drinkable water in just half an hour. Now the researchers are still working on a final design that could use cheaper materials so that it can be available to the general public, and a new model of the device could be ready by the end of 2022. This small but powerful desalination unit may be the key to bringing safe water to a thirsty world.
8. What does the underlined word “eliminates” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Proves. B. Creates. C. Satisfies. D. Removes.
9 What can we infer about the device from Paragraph 3
A. It allows high production of clean water. B. It makes a breakthrough in application
C. It may provide power for faraway places D. It can replace most desalination devices.
10 What do Jongyoon Han’s words suggest
A. The public thinks highly of the device
B. The testing system for the device has been out of date.
C. Developing the device is challenging but worthwhile.
D. Further studies are needed before marketing the device.
11. Which aspect of the device are the researchers trying to improve
A. Its affordability. B. The energy it needs.
C. Its performance in dry areas. D. The purity of the water it produces.
D
China will give the green light to Internet medical services conducted by medical institutions as part of a broader push to promote Internet Plus Healthcare, which was decided at a State Council executive meeting held by Premier Li Keqiang.
Medical institutions will be allowed to provide online diagnostic services for patients with common and chronic diseases in their follow up visits to their doctors. The top levels of hospitals will be encouraged to provide online services, including consultations (会诊), reservations and test result inquiries.
As China joins the ranks of middle income countries, the demand for health services has increased accordingly. Internet Plus Healthcare can help reduce the problem of inaccessible and expensive public health services that have long been a big concern for the general public.
One decision coming out of the meeting says the intelligent review of health insurance will be applied and that the one stop settlement will be advanced. The real time sharing of prescription and drug retail sales will be explored as well.
“We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures once the decision is made，” Li said. “In recent years, top level hospitals in major cities have seen steady increases in the number of patients. Medical bills have become a heavy burden on families and high end medical resources still fall short of meeting the growing demand of the public.”
To solve the problem, a two pronged (双管齐下的) approach must be taken. One is to establish medical partnerships to strengthen cooperation between major hospitals and community clinics. The other is to bring forward Internet Plus Healthcare to promote the sharing of quality medical resources.
The government will see to it that long distance healthcare services cover all county level hospitals. So more efforts will be made to ensure that high speed broadband network will be extended to cover medical institutions in urban and rural areas. Dedicated Internet access services will be set up to meet the needs for long distance healthcare services.
12. According to the text, which of the following services won't a patient enjoy online
A. Asking doctors for advice after the test.
B. Receiving a medical operation.
C. Knowing their situation about the disease.
D. Making an appointment with a doctor in advance.
13. What makes the demand for health services increase in China
A. The improvement of people's life quality.
B. The recognition of health insurance.
C. The expense of medical care.
D. The inconvenience of hospital equipment.
14. What does Li mean by saying “We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures”？
A. The bills are impossible to afford.
B. The measures are perfectly worked out.
C. The situations need urgent improvement.
D. The hospitals are unwilling to admit patients.
15. What can be the suitable title for the text
A. Modern Hospitals
B. Wide Applications of Internet Medical Services
C. No More Burden for General People

Can't Resist Junk Food Study Suggests You Try This Simple Trick
You're tired and hungry. Then you catch a whiff of something delicious, probably fried and almost certainly fattening. It is fried chicken!____16____A new research says that exposing to the smell of junk food for at least two minutes can actually help you make healthier food choices.
Let's take a closer look at this process. Have you ever noticed that whatever appetizing treat catches your nose's attention tends to be most appealing just after you first smell it What will happen if you're standing in line after a couple of minutes ____17____ And recent science says that this is actually the right moment to walk away.
The results of a series of experiments, including field studies at a supermarket and at a middle school cafeteria, show that extended exposure (of more than two minutes) to junk food smell (e. g,cookie smell) leads to lower purchases of unhealthy foods compared with healthy smell (e.g.strawberry smell).____18____That is why long exposure to junk food smell can be as satisfactory as actually having it in your mouth, which in turn decreases the desire for consumption of junk food.
____19____When the exposure to smell of healthy food were examined, food choices were not profoundly influenced. The reason for this is that healthy food are not connected with reward in our brain and therefore have little influence on what we desire.
So next time you're feeling you don't have the will power to resist that French fries, it might be as simple as sitting there and smelling all that sweetness for just a minute or two. ____20____
A. But wait a minute before you order.
B. It's a response that has been researched.
C. Get the satisfaction with none of the calories.
D. It isn't quite as irresistible as it was just moments ago.
E. However, it's not the same case with smell of healthy food.
F. It's the same as actually eating it because your desire to eat it is satisfied.
G The brain doesn't necessarily distinguish between a pleasurable smell or taste.

A Change of Heart
It was a cold December and things were tough for my family. Mum had a hard time raising us kids on her own in our small community of New Westminster as dad passed away five years earlier. We relied on social assistance.
Looking back, I realize what Mum went through sending us kids to school. Every morning she would place a new piece of cardboard in our shoes because our soles (鞋底) were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have French toast ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those days, and it didn’t look like we’d be in our current house much longer. Rent was $25 a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would be forced to leave right after Christmas on the first of January.
The holidays were fast approaching, and we were entitled to $25 for Christmas from social services. Mum said that instead of buying food, she was going to use the money to pay our rent. That way we’d have a roof over our heads for a little while longer. Then she told us that there would be no Christmas gifts.
Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas trees, shoveling (铲) snow and doing odd jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch, Top-Genuine, Pierre Paris boots, and they cost $23.
The big day for getting my boots came on Christmas Eve afternoon. I was very excited as I hurried up the road to catch the bus into town. It was only a half-mile walk, but on the way I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then I realized that at our house, we had no lights, no decorations and no turkey or ham for Christmas dinner.
