Doctors say they had caught it just in time to save Katie’s life, and will reportedly perform an emergency operation to remove her eye.
“If it wasn’t for that flashing toothbrush, we may never have seen the turmor—at least, not till it was too late,” said Katie’s mother Rebecca.
“We bought the brush because Katie liked the look of it. It has a bear on it called Billy, and when you press the button on the front, the light flashes for 60 seconds—which is how long kids need to brush. ”
“When we got it home, we turned the bathroom lights out so Katie could try it. She loved it, but when I looked at her face in the dark, I could see the lights creating a strange white reflection in one eye. At that point, we decided to take her straight to the hospital.

If you miss out a meal, do you ever notice yourself starting to get angry or annoyed very easily Well, this is often known as being “hangry” or being angry because you are very hungry.
It’s not just a funny phrase, but is scientifically true! Scientists found this feeling of anger usually comes from having low glucose (葡萄糖) levels in the blood. Glucose is put into the body after you eat.
The brain also needs this to work correctly. When the body is low in glucose, the brain sends hormones (激素) to increase the amount of glucose in the body. Brenda Bustillos, a dietitian at Texas A&M University, the US, says, “Hunger leads to high stress hormones, which make it hard to manage our feelings.”
Amanda Salis, PhD, University of Sydney, says that we may also be able to thank our ancestors (祖先) for our “hanger”. Salis says that long ago when there was not much food, people had to be aggressive to eat as much as they could to get enough food to live. So even now when most people have enough food to eat, there is still that aggressive feeling toward needing food.

三、阅读填表
I have lived in France for nine years, but I cannot walk down the street without being recognized(认出)as an Englishman from 50 metres away,before I open my mouth. Why?
In France,the quickest way to recognize an Englishman is that he’ll be the one with the belly(肚子)and the shirt hanging out. Englishmen often wear shapeless black T-shirts,either too big or too small. However,Frenchmen are more formal in dressing. Their T-shirts have collars(领子). Shorts have buttons and zips rather than drawstrings(拉绳). Shoes look expensive.
Englishmen think of lunchtime at 1 p. m. ,but for Frenchmen it is 12 o'clock,one hour earlier. This may explain the sad looks if an Englishman arrives at a local restaurant at 1:30 p. m. At that time most restaurants don't have waiters. All the cooking and serving may be done by the boss and his wife. When you are shown to your table,just sit there and wait. Don't wave your hands to the waiters. Englishmen think guests should do something to make the waiters pay attention to them. But in France some bread and water will come first,then the waiters will take your order according to the rhythm(节奏)of the restaurant. Have enough patience(耐心)!

Sherlock Holmes is probably the best-known detective in the world. But do you know that there is a Chinese detective who has similar skills?
He is Detective Dee-Di Renjie. Di Renjie appears as the main character in a number of crime novels and films. In these novels and films,Detective Dee solved many cases. “The first rule of sleuthing(探案)is that you need a good memory. The second is that you need to closely watch people's speech and facial(面部)expressions,”explained Detective Dee in a movie.
Although there are always made-up stories in movies and novels,detective Dee was a real person in history. This is unlike Holmes,who was created by the UK writer Arthur Conar Doyle. Di Renjie(AD 630-700)was a prime minister(宰相)under the empress(皇帝)Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty(AD618-907).
While Bao Zheng of the Song Dynasty(AD420-479) is a symbol of righteousness(正直),Di Renjie is known for his wisdom. In some films,Dee is also a kung fu master who is good at fighting.
In history,however,Di was more of a judge(法官)than a detective. It was said that while working as the head of the supreme court(大理寺),he was a great judge. During that time,he judged 17,000 cases in a year and not a single person complained.

50.根据原文第四段Di Renjie is known for his wisdom可知,狄仁杰因其智慧而闻名,be known for或be famous for都意为“因……而闻名”,故应填famous/known。
51.根据原文第四段In some films,Dee is also a kung fu master who is good at fighting可知,在一些影视作品中,狄仁杰还是一位功夫大师,be famous/known as意为“作为……是出名的”,空格处词意应为“作为”,故应填as。
52.根据原文第二段“The first rule of sleuthing(探案)is that you need a good memory. The second is that you need to closely watch people's speech and facial(面部)expressions,”explained Detective Dee in a movie可知,好记性、观察人们的说话和面部表情这两条是狄仁杰的探案惯用手法,rule此处意为“习惯”,且有两条,故应用复数,故应填rules。
53.根据原文第二段The second is that you need to closely watch people's speech and facial(面部)expressions可知,狄仁杰的探案习惯第二条是近距离观察人们的言语和面部表情,空格处前面为冠词a,后面为意为“注视”的名词watch,应填入一个形容词修饰名词watch,把原文的副词closely改为形容词形式,即close,意为“接近的、亲密的”,故应填close。
54.空格处部分的意思是“在_________上的表情”,根据原文第二段The second is that you need to closely watch people's speech and facial(面部)expressions可知,显然是面部表情“facial expressions”,在填空时,形容词facial应改为名词face,且根据空格处前面的their提示可知face应用复数形式faces,故应填faces。
55.根据原文第五段he judged 17,000 cases in a year and not a single person complained可知,他一年判案数量如此之大,但却没有一个人抱怨过这些判决,故空格处应填入意为“抱怨”的动词complained,故应填complained。
【分析】此类型的任务型阅读题难度不大,表格里面的总结归纳都可在原文中找到原句,且空格处所填单词也可以直接找到,但要注意的是,表格中的归纳总结句子大多在表述上与原文有差异,故在找到空格处在原文对应意思的单词后,还应检查原文单词的词性是否符合空格处的词性要求,如不符合,则需进行词性改写,本题典型例子便是第8、9小题。

【分析】本文主要是通过Tina读报纸中的侦探故事给父亲听,讲述了一起谋杀案的侦破过程。
56.句意:蒂娜在看新闻时,她的父亲下班回到家。根据情境和首字母“w”可知,父亲应该是下班回到家。故填(w)ork。
57.句意:父亲问她是今天否有重要的事情。根据情境和“there be”句型,以及过去完成时可知,应该使用“been”。故填(b)een。
58.句意:这起案件发生在前天晚上8点到10点之间。根据上句“Tina said that another murder had been solved by their top detective. Detective Lu.”可知,蒂娜说另一宗谋杀案是由他们的最厉害的Lu侦探侦破的,所以此处应该描述的案件,“crime”意为“犯罪”。故填(c)rime。
59.句意:他们感到相当害怕。根据文中“They called the police at once”可知,他们看到这个场景,很害怕,立刻报警。“get”后应用形容词“scared”。故填(s)cared。

61.句意:受害者被枪或刀谋杀的。根据上文“Tina said that another murder had been solved by their top detective, Detective Lu.”表明是有谋杀案,因而受害者被谋杀,“murder”意为“谋杀”,用被动语态,应该使用过去分词。故填(m)urdered。
62.句意:他带他们回去核查指纹。根据情境可知,侦探在寻找证据,以“f”开头的单词应该使用“fingerprint”,意为“指纹”,符合语境,且应该使用复数形式。故填(f)ingerprints。

【分析】本文主要介绍阿瑟·柯南·道尔故事里的人物歇洛克·福尔摩斯。
66.句意:他想成为一名成功的医生,但来这里的病人很少。
分析句子可知,不缺少任何成分,连词but表转折,可知句意是“只有很少的人来这”。副词only只有,仅仅,作状语。故答案是only。
67.句意:为了打发时间,他开始写故事,寄给报社。
动词write后缺少宾语,可知此处是一个名词。根据后文Conan Doyle's stories were about a clever d___3___……可知他写的是故事,故答案是stories。
68.句意:柯南道尔的故事是关于一个聪明的侦探,福尔摩斯。
形容词clever聪明的,作定语,可知此处是一个可数名词单数。根据后文Sherlock Holmes is the most famous detective in English literature…可知福尔摩斯是一名侦探。故答案是detective。
69.句意:柯南·道尔写道,夏洛克·福尔摩斯住在伦敦贝克街221B号……
此刻需填一个谓语动词,221B Baker Street in London是一个地址。根据首字母提示,live实义动词,居住;live at sp住在某地,时态是一般过去时,故答案是lived。
70.句意:他能够查明英国最聪明的警察所不能查明的真相。
动词短语find out后缺少一个宾语,且这个宾语是定语从句的先行词。根据首字母提示,truth真相,不可数名词,符合句意,故答案是truth。
71.句意:有时候歇洛克·福尔摩斯不用离开他的椅子就能解开一个谜。
根据首字母提示,介词without+动名词,表示状态,故答案是without。
72.句意:其他时候,他会花几天或几周的时间寻找线索,以帮助他破案。
动词短语look for缺少宾语,且这个宾语是定语从句的先行词。根据首字母提示,clue线索,可数名词,符合句意。故答案是clues。

分析句子可知,此处填一个副词作状语,根据首字母提示,probably可能,也许,符合句意,故答案是probably。
75.句意:英国邮局报道,人们给在贝克街221 b号福尔摩斯发送的邮件,每年超过2000封。
此刻需填一个谓语动词,根据首字母提示和The English post office,可知report报道,符合语境,时态是一般过去时,故答案是reported。
【分析】短文首字母填空题,首先理解文章大意,然后细读文章。先分析句子成分,确定词性;再根据首字母提示准确写出答案。同时注意考虑句型、搭配、冠词、从句、时态、语境等,最后通读检查验证。例如第7小题,先分析句子中的动词短语look for缺少宾语,且这个宾语是定语从句的先行词。根据首字母提示,clue线索,符合句意。然后考虑到clue这个名词是可数名词,所以要考虑到名词数的问题。最终确定答案是clues。
