Question

10．When you catch a cold，should you still go into work or have a rest at home？Sometimes this decision can actually get quite stressful．On the one hand，going into work is the conscientious （盡責(zé)的） thing to do．On the other hand，going into work could make you ill for longer．You probably won't be able to concentrate and do your work well and you might make other people ill．So to help you decide，let's take a look at some of the factors．
First of all，before you go into work，ask yourself whether you are actually going to be productive．Do you have pressing work that really can't wait？Is your job so easy that you can relax while working？If going into work might make you worse，perhaps you had better have one day off and then work probably later．
Secondly，ask yourself whether you are contagious （患傳染病的） and your suffering is caused by a virus．Viruses are highly contagious and can spread through the air．If you cough close to someone，you can very easily give him or her a cold．As a result，you'll end up infecting your colleagues，thus dramatically damaging the productivity of the whole workforce．
Another reason to take time off work is that it's important for your health．Even if you can work in your current condition，that doesn't necessarily mean that you should，as paying no attention to your symptoms could lead to you getting worse and catching other illnesses．Your immune system is weakened when you are ill，so if you travel on the bus with other possibly sick people，you can end up getting other serious infections．Worse still，if a viral infection makes it to your brain，it can result in serious brain damage．So listen to your body and take its warnings seriously!
Though it's better to take time off work in the vast majority of situations，you're most likely not to do it．Why？Because there is an important meeting tomorrow，or you're trying to impress the new boss，or you have a huge to-do list．In short，you're probably always feeling as though you have a huge mountain of work to do．However，in fact it was probably this pressure that caused you to get ill in the first place．So think it over：Can you really not take a single day off work for the sake of your health？If not，then there's probably something very wrong with your work-life balance．

Answer 1

分析 短文主要講了當(dāng)你得病時(shí)，要不要去工作的事情，作者建議從四個(gè)方面考慮：工作是否有成效？病毒是否有傳染性？對身體健康有益嗎？能不能請到一天的病假？

解答 71．employee/worker，根據(jù)文章句子On the one hand，going into work is the conscientious （盡責(zé)的） thing to do可知"當(dāng)你生病時(shí)去工作證明你是負(fù)責(zé)任的員工"，因此此空答案可以為employee/worker．     
72．longer，根據(jù)句子On the other hand，going into work could make you ill for longer 可知"帶病工作的另一個(gè)方面是讓你的病拖延得更久"，故答案為longer．         
73．productive，根據(jù)第一點(diǎn)First of all，before you go into work，ask yourself whether you are actually going to be productive可知應(yīng)考慮的是"你是否是富有成效的"，故答案為形容詞productive．      
74．linked/related，根據(jù)第二點(diǎn)應(yīng)考慮的因素Secondly，ask yourself whether you are contagious （患傳染病的） and your suffering is caused by a virus是"看看你得的病是不是由病毒引起的"也就是和病毒相關(guān)的，因此使用動(dòng)詞短語be linked/related to"與…相關(guān)"．         
75．Ignoring，根據(jù)文章句子as paying no attention to your symptoms could lead to you getting worse and catching other illnesses 可知"忽視你的癥狀會導(dǎo)致你情況惡化"，因此使用動(dòng)名詞短語ignoring your present symptoms 充當(dāng)主語．       
76．weakened/weak，根據(jù)句子Your immune system is weakened when you are ill，so if you travel on the bus with other possibly sick people，you can end up getting other serious infections 可知"當(dāng)你生病時(shí)，免疫系統(tǒng)會變?nèi)酰�因此容易感染其他的病�?，故使用形容詞weakened/weak修飾immune system．      
77．damage，根據(jù)句子Worse still，if a viral infection makes it to your brain，it can result in serious brain damage 可知"更糟糕的是會損害大腦"，故答案為damage．           
78．unable，根據(jù)句子Can you really not take a single day off work for the sake of your health？可知是"為了健康就不能請假一天嗎？"，這是同義句的轉(zhuǎn)換，因此使用be unable to do"不能夠做某事"．       
79．reasons，根據(jù)句子Because there is an important meeting tomorrow，or you're trying to impress the new boss，or you have a huge to-do list．In short，you're probably always feeling as though you have a huge mountain of work to do 可知"當(dāng)你生病時(shí)，還有很多理由讓你堅(jiān)持去上班"，因此使用名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式reasons．      
80．loss，根據(jù)句子then there's probably something very wrong with your work-life balance．可知"如果工作和生活失衡的話，就會生病"．

點(diǎn)評 解答任務(wù)型閱讀理解題，首先對原文材料迅速瀏覽，掌握全文的主旨大意．因?yàn)殚喿x理解題一般沒有標(biāo)題，所以，速讀全文，抓住中心主旨很有必要，在速讀的過程中，應(yīng)盡可能多地捕獲信息材料．其次，細(xì)讀題材，各個(gè)擊破．掌握全文的大意之后，細(xì)細(xì)閱讀每篇材料后的問題，弄清每題要求后，帶著問題，再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關(guān)信息．最后，要善于抓住每段的主題句，閱讀時(shí)，要有較強(qiáng)的針對性．對于捕獲到的信息，要做認(rèn)真分析，仔細(xì)推敲，理解透徹，只有這樣，針對題目要求，才能做到穩(wěn)、準(zhǔn)．
