中，是對首句的進(jìn)一步說明說明。首句提出，我們所知道的有兩種臭氧，此句和后一句都是對這兩種臭氧的進(jìn)一步說明，即自然臭氧處于大氣層的上部，而人類在地面上也會(huì)產(chǎn)生臭氧。4．C此空設(shè)于段首，是本段的主題句。本段后面的內(nèi)容都是圍繞空氣是可以被凈化的這一說法而綻開的。5．F此空設(shè)于段尾，是對本段第三句的進(jìn)一步詳細(xì)說明。第三句提出，最近針對霧霾已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了許多措施，工廠用的煤含有很少的有害物質(zhì)，汽車也變得更清潔了，甚至在霧霾天，一些城市都不允許汽車出行。Ⅳ.完形填空Threeyearsago,Iwasworkingasalawyer.Forayearorlonger,myworkwasbeginningtosuffer.I__1__gottothepointwhereIcouldn'tconcentrate(集中留意力)—oneoftheearlysignsthatsomethingwas__2__.Ikeptforgettingthings.Legalworkiscomplicated(困難的),andyouhavetohaveagood__3__todothatwork.SoI__4__myjob.Italkedtomydoctoraboutmyfamily's__5__ofAlzheimer's;myfatherandgrandfatherhadit.ThenIwasaskedtodosometests.It__6__thatIhaveearly-onsetAlzheimer'sdisease.Needlesstosay,mylifehas__7__.MyhusbandDanretired(退休)soonaftermydiagnosis(診斷)__8__wespendalotoftimetogether.__9__goingtowork,Iusedtospendmydayshavinglunchwithmyfriendsand__10__mymother.IcoulddriveuptoseeherbeforeIstartedgetting__11__.Thesituationwasn't__12__，butI'dhadtoturnaroundenoughtimesthatitfrightenedme.I__13__driveoutoftown.Istayintown.I'manindependentperson,butnowIhaveto__14__someofthatindependence.MyhusbandandImostlydotheshoppingtogetherbecauseI__15__thelist.DanandIareenjoyinglifewhilewecan.Somepeoplearesavingmoneyfortripsyearsdowntheroad.We'renot__16__；wetakeatripeveryyear.TheonethingIwishIcouldchangeispeople's__17__whenItellthemIhaveALzheimer's.Theyshutdown.Icanstill__18__；it'snotlikesuddenlyIcan'trememberanything.Thishappenedwithmyfather.Hewasvery__19__，andhehadlotsoffriends.WhenhisfriendslearnedhegotAlzheimer's,theywouldn'tcometovisithim.IthinkpeopleshouldlearnmoreaboutAlzheimer'sand__20__thatpeoplewiththediseasecanstillsocialize.【語篇解讀】本文是記敘文。作者描述了自己在患有阿爾茨海默病后生活所發(fā)生的變更；同時(shí)，她希望人們能夠多了解阿爾茨海默病，變更對它固有的一些看法。1．A.finallyB．possiblyC．hardlyD．certainly答案與解析：A由上文中的“myworkwasbeginningtosuffer”可知，“我”的工作狀態(tài)越來越糟，直到“最終(finally)”變得無法集中留意力。2．A.differentB．wrongC．difficultD．strange答案與解析：B由本句中的“Icouldn'tconcentrate”和下文中的“Ikeptforgettingthings”可知，“我”的身體“有毛病了(wrong)”。3．A.reasonB．brainC．chanceD．hand答案與解析：B由本句中的“Legalworkiscomplicated”可知，要想從事法律工作，你須要“腦子(brain)”好。4．A.continuedB．gotC．leftD．enjoyed答案與解析：C由本句中的So以及下文的描述可知，“我”“辭掉(left)”了工作。5．A.habitB．descriptionC．ideaD．history答案與解析：D由“myfatherandgrandfatherhadit”可知，“我”告知醫(yī)生自己家有阿爾茨海默病家族“史(history)”。6．A.madesureB．meantC．turnedoutD．a(chǎn)dded答案與解析：C由上文中的“ThenIwasaskedtodosometests”以及下文的描述可知，醫(yī)生讓“我”做了一些測試?！敖Y(jié)果表明(turnedout)”“我”患有早發(fā)性阿爾茨海默病。7．A.begunB．changedC．returnedD．ended答案與解析：B下文描述作者生活所發(fā)生的“變更(changed)”。8．A.soB．unlessC．a(chǎn)sD．but答案與解析：A“我”的丈夫在“我”確診后很快便退休，“因此(so)”我們有大量的時(shí)間在一起。9．A.ApartfromB．AlongwithC．BecauseofD．Insteadof答案：D10．A.helpingB．visitingC．missingD．calling答案與解析：B由上文可知，“我”辭掉了律師的工作。再結(jié)合下文中的“Icoulddriveuptoseeher”可知，因?yàn)椤安挥?insteadof)”去上班，“我”便有時(shí)間去“探望(visiting)”母親。11．A.boredB．hurtC．tiredD．lost答案：D12．A.funnyB．terribleC．similarD．special答案與解析：B由本段中的“butI'dhadtoturnaroundenoughtimesthatitfrightenedme”可知，最近，“我”開車去探望母親時(shí)，有幾次“迷路(lost)”了。盡管狀況不是很“糟(terrible)”，但還是讓“我”感到膽怯
