【解析】

這是一篇說(shuō)明文。每天，我們?cè)诓煌�的地方工作。文章就如何保持良好的姿�?shì)給出了幾點(diǎn)建議，通過(guò)簡(jiǎn)單的動(dòng)作不挺直身體，減少肩部肌肉、頸部和腿部的緊張。

【1】

上一句提到“我們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己在家里的不同位置用筆記本電腦和平板電腦打字。”承接上文，E選項(xiàng)“為了幫助你無(wú)論在哪里工作都能保持良好的姿勢(shì)，”切題。該選項(xiàng)中的“no matter where you're working”與上文中的各個(gè)工作地方相呼應(yīng)。故選E項(xiàng)。

【2】

與下文中介紹的肩部運(yùn)動(dòng)，尤其是“roll your shoulders back”將肩膀向后轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)相對(duì)應(yīng)。A選項(xiàng)“Shoulder stretch”肩部伸展，切合題意。該選項(xiàng)中的Shoulder stretch和上文的“shoulder muscles”相呼應(yīng)。故選A項(xiàng)。

【3】

該段標(biāo)題建議我們要“頸部伸展”，G選項(xiàng)“將右耳垂向右肩，伸展左脖子�！焙瓦@個(gè)主題呼應(yīng)，切題。且選項(xiàng)中的“neck”與上下文相呼應(yīng)。故選G項(xiàng)。

【4】

該段標(biāo)題建議我們要“拉伸單腿腿筋”，F選項(xiàng)“確保你的腿與椅子成直角，兩腳分開(kāi)到腿的長(zhǎng)度�！焙瓦@個(gè)主題呼應(yīng)，切題。且選項(xiàng)中的“legs”與上下文相呼應(yīng)。故選F項(xiàng)。

【5】

由下文中的“because we're combining Pilates core work with yoga stretching and strengthening.” 因?yàn)槲覀儗⑵绽�提核心�?xùn)練與瑜伽的伸展和強(qiáng)化結(jié)合在了一起�？芍�，C選項(xiàng)“這個(gè)練習(xí)也算是一種小型鍛煉，”切題。故選C項(xiàng)。

七選五的解題技巧之一是根據(jù)上下文詞匯來(lái)鎖定線索。即：要關(guān)注空白前后的名詞和動(dòng)詞，然后在選項(xiàng)中查找它們的近義詞、反義詞、同義詞、同類詞等。其次是一些專有名詞，比如說(shuō)數(shù)詞、代詞、時(shí)間、年代、地點(diǎn)/名稱等。在本文中，第2小題中的“Shoulder”，第3小題中的“neck”，第4小題中的“legs”均與上下文有相呼應(yīng)的詞語(yǔ)。
