But unfortunately for humans and pets alike, spending an abundance of time outdoors can have a troublesome downside: tick (扁虱) bites. “Tick season” actually takes up most of the year. 1 The following safety tips may help you protect your pet from harmful tick bites.

Lessen Your Pets Exposure to Ticks

If you think that your pet may be exposed to ticks, speak to your vet to discuss safe, effective products that may be able to prevent the attachment of ticks.

Check Your Pet for Signs of Ticks

Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area.3 Run your hands along your pets body, feeling for small bumps (腫塊) and looking for dark spots. Ticks can be black, brown, and can range in size.

Know How to Safely Remove a Tick from Your Pet

Removing a tick from your pet can be a terrible task, but it’s important to act quickly if you find evidence of a tick on it, as diseases can be spread from the creatures within a few short hours. 4 Among them using the tick remover is the most commonly used one.

【解析】

本文是一篇應(yīng)用文,介紹了幾個(gè)可以幫助保護(hù)寵物免受蜱蟲(chóng)的叮咬的安全提示。

1根據(jù)前文. “Tick season” actually takes up most of the year. _可知實(shí)際上一年的大部分時(shí)間都是“蜱蟲(chóng)季節(jié)”。根據(jù)后文The following safety tips may help you protect your pet from harmful tick bites.可知以下的安全提示可以幫助你保護(hù)你的寵物免受蜱蟲(chóng)的叮咬。承上啟下,E項(xiàng)(而在夏季,(蜱蟲(chóng)的)叮咬次數(shù)往往會(huì)增加。)切題,故選E項(xiàng)。

2根據(jù)后文Usually they are particularly fond of tall grasses and brush. If possible, clear your yard regularly to create a safer environment for your pet to play in.可知通常他們特別喜歡高的草和灌木。如果可能的話,經(jīng)常清理你的院子,為你的寵物創(chuàng)造一個(gè)更安全的環(huán)境。承接下文,B項(xiàng)(蜱蟲(chóng)可以生活在所有類型的環(huán)境中。)切題,后文中的they指代的就是B項(xiàng)中的ticks。

3根據(jù)上文Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area.可知每天檢查你的寵物是否有蜱蟲(chóng),特別是當(dāng)他或她一直在戶外或樹(shù)木繁茂的地方玩耍時(shí)。D項(xiàng) (要檢查的地方包括身體的大部分。)能夠連接上文,跟本段標(biāo)題(檢查你的寵物是否有蜱蟲(chóng)的跡象)相呼應(yīng),故選D項(xiàng)。

4根據(jù)上文Removing a tick from your pet can be a terrible task, but it’s important to act quickly if you find evidence of a tick on it, as diseases can be spread from the creatures within a few short hours.可知清除寵物身上的蜱蟲(chóng)是一項(xiàng)艱巨的任務(wù),但如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)了蜱蟲(chóng)存在的證據(jù),就必須迅速采取行動(dòng),因?yàn)榧膊】梢栽诙潭處仔r(shí)內(nèi)從動(dòng)物身上傳播。根據(jù)下文Among them using the tick remover is the most commonly used one.可知其中,使用蜱蟲(chóng)去除劑是最常用的一種。連接上下文,G項(xiàng)(網(wǎng)上可以找到各種各樣的清除方法。)切題,后文中的them指的G項(xiàng)的varieties of removal methods,故選G項(xiàng)。

5根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知這一段主要是關(guān)于寵物被蜱蟲(chóng)叮咬之后的癥狀,A項(xiàng)(了解癥狀)能夠概括這一段,故選A項(xiàng)。

七選五題型要求考生從整體上把握文章的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)和內(nèi)容上的聯(lián)系,理解句子之間、段落之間的關(guān)系,對(duì)諸如連貫性、一致性等語(yǔ)段特征有較強(qiáng)的意識(shí)和熟練的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本結(jié)構(gòu)或段落的語(yǔ)篇結(jié)構(gòu)對(duì)解題很有用。

分析本文的語(yǔ)篇結(jié)構(gòu),可以知道第一段是文章的主題句,然后接下來(lái)各段的語(yǔ)篇結(jié)構(gòu)都是主題句(總)+支撐句(分)(分述主題的具體內(nèi)容/說(shuō)明原因/舉例證明等)。所以第3小題本段的主題句是Check Your Pet for Signs of Ticks,而空格前文Check your pet for ticks daily, especially if he or she has been playing outside or in a wooded or grassy area和后文Run your hands along your pets body, feeling for small bumps (腫塊) and looking for dark spots.都是講檢查寵物身體的,D項(xiàng)跟檢查動(dòng)物身體有關(guān),故選D項(xiàng)。

【題目】A couple of years ago, when my older daughter was 8,she gently told my wife and me that she’d gotten too old for us to read her books anymore. We didn’t try to talk her out of it or tell her many benefits of reading aloud to a child (even after they can do so themselves). 1

Two weeks after stopping our bedtime readings, though, my older daughter asked whether we could start again. 2 As she later explained, “Everyone likes to be read to, even adults.” We’ve continued uninterrupted since. Right now, we’re deep into Philip Pullman’s “The Golden Compass.”

3 In most of the studies, people found that reading aloud appeared to strengthen parents’ feelings of competence, improve the quality of their relationships with their children and even reduce parental stress or depression.

Reading aloud to children improves a young mind’s cognitive development (thinking, problem-solving, decision-making) and reduces behavior problems, research shows. As with playing board games, reading to them increases concentration and attention spans.

And yet, too many of us stop before the kids want us to. 4

The conversations children have around themes and ideas in books help them make sense of the world. And it’s a joyful way to connect and be close with your kid. While reading in bed, my daughters and I lie next to each other, sometimes leaning into one another. 5 It’s as high a quality as quality time gets.

A. She simply enjoyed the practice too much to let it go yet.

B. When she was a young child, we began a nearly daily reading called Milk & Books.

C. We were disappointed but respected her.

D. Reading aloud was significantly beneficial to children and their parents.

E. In Australia, more than a third of children aged 6 to 1l whose parents had stopped reading to them wanted to continue.

F. We laugh and are surprised together and have deep conversations about the novels.

G. It’s one of the most virtuous circles of parenting and teaching.

This afternoon, I saw an interesting thing while I am walking home from school. I noticed a schoolboy walking in the front of me. When he passed by a white wall, he left his two footprints on the wall. See this, an old man shouted at the boy angry. The boy felt afraid and ran out quickly. A few minutes later, other boy passed by the wall and saw the footprints on the wall. He thought a moment and took out a pencil from her schoolbag. When I was wondering, I saw the boy painting a panda on the wall. And the footprints become the panda’s black eyes. What smart the boy was!

【題目】 The UN’s Millennium Development Goals included the ambition that by 2015 all the world’s children would complete primary school. This has largely been achieved: nine out of ten children are now enrolled. 1 Even though most of the world’s children go to school, an awful lot of them learn pretty much nothing there. According to a recent World Bank study of seven sub-Saharan African countries, half of nine-year-olds cannot read a simple word and three-quarters cannot read a simple sentence. 2

Several recent studies suggest education technology can help. It seems to bring about bigger improvements in poor countries than in rich ones.

3 That doesn’t mean buying computers for schools in the hope that children will understand how to use them, a stupidity on which plenty of money has been wasted. Instead, it means providing schools with software that children can use with minimal help from an adult. The software gets things right more often than the teachers do, adjusts itself to the child’s ability, and sends teachers instructions about what they are supposed to be teaching. 4

Technology is no panacea(萬(wàn)靈藥) . 5 And authorities need to take teachers into account. But education technology can help greatly — by monitoring pupils and teachers alike, assisting the best teachers and, most important, making up for the failings of the worst.

A. The reason is terrible teaching.

B. The achievements are really great.

C. However, the figure is not as impressive as it sounds.

D. Technology plays more and more important role in teaching.

E. Good traditional teachers are not outdated, and are never likely to be.

F. Meanwhile it allows the authorities to check on whether the teacher is in the classroom.

G. Some of the scarce resources being spent on teachers could therefore be better spent on education technology.
