8、的“Medical related emergencies are on the rise with more old people living alone.More seniors are looking for an independent lifestyle”可知，更多的老年人选择独居使得与医疗相关的紧急情况增多。2B 考查推理判断。根据第三段的“Our new system can detect falls automatically”可知，这种系统可以自动探测到老人摔倒，主要起警报作用，并不是说可以阻止老人摔倒，故选 B。3D 考查细节理解。根据文章中打电话购买者的前 100名可得
9、到的好处之一“24 Hours a Day/7 Days a Week LIVE Monitoring and Support”可知，打电话购买者的前 100名可以得到全天候的监控和帮助。A 选项错在“Buy” ，根据文章中的“The Free Medical Alert System ($300 value)”可知，打电话购买者的前 100名可以免费得到价值 300美元的医疗警报系统；B 项文章没有提及；C 项错在“at a discount” ，根据文中的“The Free Necklace Pendant”可知，打电话购买者的前 100名可免费得到一个项链的饰坠。*语法填空。Being
10、a teenager is a very important time in a persons life. “Why？” you may ask. Well, _1_ its the important time of preparation for adulthood.Dont get me wrong. Being a teen is hard and _2_ (annoy). Its a time that adults look upon with_3_ (embarrass) and annoyance. However, its a time to figure out your
11、 talents, _4_ you like and your view in life. A very popular trend is to “be who you are”， _5_ is great, but I like to take it further and say, “be the best you, you can be” . The teenage years are not the same for everyone. We each have our own 3situations, personalities, and way _6_ living a life.
12、 Those things shape us for the future. What I said is true. The majority of the human lifespan _7_ (spend) as an adult, so I might as well make sure that time is great. That is why being a teen is _8_ important role in society. We have the power to _9_ (potential) control the future. Being a teenage
13、r is awesome. Dont take _10_ for granted; instead, use this time to be the best you, you can be.1_ 2._ 3._ 4._ 5._ 6._ 7._ 8._ 9._ 10._ 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了青少年时期在人们一生中的重要性，并说明了青少年时期对于每个人都不尽相同，抓住这个时间成为最好的自己对于成年有重要意义。1because 考查连词。根据上文的“Why？you may ask.”可知，此处是回答这个问题的，故用 because来引导原因状语从句。2annoying 考查词性转换。
14、此处 and连接两个并列的形容词作表语，且描述的是“Being a teen”的状况，故填 annoying，意为“令人烦恼的” 。3embarrassment 考查词性转换。根据下文的“and annoyance”可知，该空填名词embarrassment与 annoyance并列。4what 考查宾语从句的连接词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导从句作 figure out的宾语，空处在从句中作 like的宾语，表示“所的事物” ，故用连接词 what。5which 考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且在从句中作主语，先行词为前面主句整体内容，故用 which。6
15、of 考查介词。名词 way后接 to do sth.或 of doing sth.，表示“做某事的方式” ，根据“living a life”可知，该空填 of。7is spent 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。描述一般性情况，本文的时态为一般现在时，且主语“The majority of the human lifespan”为单数，与动词 spend之间为被动关系，故填 is spent。8an 考查冠词。此处表泛指，且 important的发音以元音音素开头，故用 an。9potentially 考查词性转换。此处应用副词修饰动词 control，故该空填potentially。10
16、it 考查代词。此处指的是“不要不重视青少年时期” ；take sth. for granted为固定搭配，意为“视为理所当然，不把当回事” ，此处用 it来代替“Being a teenager”。4*完形填空。Every Friday I went to a senior nursing home which was the lowest ratingone star out of five. It seemed as if it needed 1 , but little did I know it would help me too. During my first visit I h
17、elped to polish some female residents 2 . One woman asked me many questions. After she was satisfied with my 3 , she started to share some of her hidden 4 . By listening to her, I realized I had actually helped her: she looked relieved, 5 of some of her past pains. When she was finished, she told me
18、 something that 6 me to visit the nursing home every week. She said, “Youre the 7 person I was able to tell this to. The other ladies are too busy to listen to me, and the other 8 dont care. Youll come back next week, right? ” After 9 blowing on her newly coated nails, I smiled and 10 , “Yes, Ill se
19、e you next Friday. ” That day, I was gladdened by the 11 that I had helped somebody. I realized an action as simple as 12 became something much more. During every second I spent there, I realized how much of a difference my 13 could have on the lives of others, and I also found energy in a place not
20、 14 known for it. But the most 15 aspect of living there is that it breaks the human 16 between those in todays society and the nursing home residents. Every moment I spend chatting is an opportunity to 17 that connection again, to unwrap their troubles, and to shape someones life. In 18 , that mome
21、nt also shapes me. I not only learn about life and experiences outside of school, but also receive the 19 of being part of this process this connection between humans. Those 20 of sharing and listening are magical for both the giver and the receiver. 【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文, 介绍作者在疗养院服务期间的感悟和认识。明白一个道理: 倾听和分享是
