5.Absorbed (absorb) in reading the novel,I even forgot to pick up my mother in the airport.

分析 全神贯注于读这本小说,我甚至忘了去机场接我的妈妈.

解答 83.Absorbed,考查非谓语做状语的用法,句子谓语动词是forget,因此absorb应使用非谓语的形式,与其逻辑主语I 是被动的关系,因此使用过去分词absorb充当状语.

点评 考查非谓语形式,应判断其与主语是主动还是被动的关系,再确定答案.

15.Can you imagine that several hundred years ago,tomatoes were seen as toxic food in Europe?
What made Europeans believe this was John Gerard's publication of Herbal in 1597.Gerard wrote:"The leaves and stalks of the tomato plant are toxic."Undoubtedly,Gerard's opinion was based on a misunderstanding of tomatoes.But his opinion was widely spread in Britain and North America for over two hundred years.
In the late 1700s,a lot of Europeans held more fears for tomatoes.A nick name for the fruit was"poison apple"because it was believed that aristocrats(贵族) got sick and died after eating them.But the actual reason was the pewter plates they used.Since tomatoes are high in acidity,when placed on the plates,the lead(铅) in the plates would dissolve.This caused many deaths.Unluckily,no one knew this at that time.So the innocent tomatoes were picked as the killer.
Today,more than one and a half billion tons of tomatoes are produced every year around the world.Tomatoes are cooked in various ways.This healthy and tasty food finally wins its innocence(清白) back.

17.One of the Queen's closest relatives and oldest friends was allowed to give a deep description into the family life of the Royals.Although there have been hundreds of other books declaring to offer a quick look behind the Palace doors,this is the first written by someone who is closely related to the Royal Family and has shared their lives-not only throughout the Queen's reign (统治) but also through that of her father,King George VI.
The Final Curtsey was written by her Majesty's cousin and childhood playmate the Honorable Margaret Rhodes.It tells in details the story of Mrs.Rhodes's relationship with the Royal family over eight decades.The book,with delightfully informal and never-before-seen pictures,has been written with the full knowledge of the Queen,who has read and approved parts of it.
Born in 1925,the Honorable Margaret Rhodes has led an extraordinary life.She was the childhood playmate of her cousin,the Queen; a wartime M16 spy; and she was a lady-in-waiting (宫女) to her aunt,the Queen Elizabeth,the Queen Mother,from 1991 until the latter's death in 2002.At the Queen's 80th birthday in April 2006,Margaret gave an interview to the BBC which she proved that,in her own opinion and despite several false reports,the Queen would not abdicate(退位).
In this charming autobiography (自传),she told how she was offered a house to live in the Royal farm in Windsor Great Park unexpectedly.One day when she and the Queen were out riding outside,she suddenly returned and said,"Could you bear to live in the suburb?""I think it should be OK."Therefore Mrs.Rhodes is now still living there.

14.So you want to draw money from a bank?Do it yourself.Want to fix the Internet connection?Do it yourself.Need a boarding card for your flight?Do it yourself.In theory,companies can save money by replacing human workers with automated self-service systems,while customers gain more choices and get quicker service.Surely the expansion of self-service into more and more areas is to be welcomed?
Not necessarily.When it is done well,self-service can do good to both companies and customers.But when done badly-who has not found themselves trapped in aseries of endless touch-tone menus?In areas where self-service is only just started,this is less of a problem:angry customers can after all,always take their business elsewhere.But if every bank were to prefer self-service systems,customers would no longer be able to express their discount by voting with their feet.As a result,some banks,for example,already promise that their telephone-banking services always offer the choice of talking to a human operator.But in return for human service,many companies will simply charge more.
Another disagreement to self-service is that while it saves companies money,it does not always save their customers'time.In the best cases,it does,of course:checking yourself in at the airport can be quicker than queuing or making a phone call.But as more and more tasks are on to customers,they may start to hope for the days of old-fashioned service.
All of this suggests that there are limits to how far self-service can be taken.Companies that go too far down the self-service route or to do it incorrectly are likely to find themselves being punished.Instead,a balance between self-service and traditional forms of service is necessary.

29.What advantages does the self-service technology certainly bring?A
A.Cutting the cost for the companies.
B.Saving money for customers.
C.Offering customers extra money.
D.Defeating the traditional forms of service.
30.What does the writer mean by saying"customers would no longer be able to express
their discount by voting with their feet"?B
A.Customers would be so angry that they kick and damage the machine providing self-service.
B.Customers would not be able to express their anger at the bank's service by leaving there.
C.Customers would try their best to persuade the bank to stop self-service.
D.Customers would elect some leaders to have a talk with the bank.
31.From this passage,we can see that the writerD the use of self-service.
A.dislikes
B.supports
C.thinks highly of
D.makes careful judgment on.

15.A new survey finds that more than eighty percent of Internet users in the United States search for health information online.The survey found that searching online is one of the leading ways that people look for a second opinion though doctors are still the main source of health information.
Forty-four percent of people are actually looking for doctors or other providers when they search for health information online.Another finding of the survey:Two-thirds of Internet users look online for information about a specific disease or medical condition.
The Internet has also become an important source of emotional support for people with health problems.Susannah Fox says one in five Internet users has gone online to find other people who have the same condition.It was more popular among people with more serious health issues-one in four people living with chronic diseases (慢性病).And it was basically off the charts with people living with rare disease.They are so eager to find other people online who share their health concerns.
A disease is considered rare if it affects fewer than two hundred thousand people worldwide.The rise of social networking has made it easier for people with rare diseases to connect with each other and feel less alone.Social networking is also changing the way some doctors and patients communicate with each other.Dr.Jeff Livingston operates a medical center for women inIrving,Texas.His office uses password-protected software to share information with patients.
"We provide the patient full access to their medical care.Anything I can see,the patient can see.All of their notes,all of their doctor visits are right there.All of their lab work is right there."Dr.Livingston says the software has increased efficiency,reduced costs and improved relations with patients.

28.From the first paragraph,we can knowB.
A.most online health information is reliable
B.more people now turn to the Internet for medical advice
C.people shouldn't rely on the Internet for medical advice
D.doctors are no longer the patients'first choice

A.very popular    
B.not accessible

A.find effective cures        
B.get emotional comfort
C.ask for financial support    
D.consult doctors anytime
31.Which of the following is NOT true for Dr.Livingston's software?D
A.It cuts down medical expenses.
B.It decreases the time spent on medical care.
C.It takes doctors closer to their patients.
