7.Tins of cooling ointment (清涼油)have become a currency for Chinese traveling in Egypt.
(61)Visiting(visit)the complex of ancient temples at Karnak,Chinese tourist Mr.Ye lost his way among the stone churches and pillars.
An Egyptian guide gave him directions.To show his(62)appreciation(appreciate),Mr.Ye handed him a small red tin the size of a large coin.Inside (63)was(be) a cooling ointment that has the function of refreshing mind and preventing pain.Mr.Ye brought 50tins with him on his six-day tour to hand out as tips.
"Before I came to Egypt,the tourism agency told me(64)repeatedly(repeat) to bring cooling balm as a gift to make the trip(65)easier(easy),"said Mr.Ye,a 25-year-old(66)whose family sells Chinese medicine online.Egyptians,he said,are very nice to Chinese tourists,(67)andthey love this little gift."
Egyptians sometimes demand the balm by running a thumb across their foreheads.Li Xiaodong,an Egyptologist at China's Northeast Normal University,believes Chinese travelers initially brought cooling balm for (68)personal(person) use because it's very hot in Egypt,then(69)discovered(discover)Egyptians liked it.
Some Chinese tourists said giving gifts feels better than handing over money."If you give essential balm,(70)itis more like you're giving it to friends,"said one Chinese tourist.

分析 本文通過講述中國游客在埃及旅行的事情,由此提出了清涼油的使用,表明了清涼油在外國人眼中的作用及好處.

解答 61.Visiting;考查動名詞,此句意為參觀卡納克的古建筑群,中國游客葉先生在石頭教堂和石柱之間迷失了方向.此處為動名詞做主語,并且參觀與中國游客之間為主動關(guān)系,故填Visiting
62.a(chǎn)ppreciation;考查詞性辨析,此句意為為了表示他的謝意,此處的‘謝意'為名詞,所以填appreciate的名詞形式appreciation,故填appreciation.
63.was;考查時態(tài)語態(tài),此句意為里面是一個清涼油,具有提神醒腦的作用,防止疼痛.由前文Mr.Ye lost his way among the stone churches and pillars.可知全文用的是過去時,故填was.
64.repeatedly;考查詞性辨析,此句意為在我來埃及之前,旅游社曾多次告訴我要帶清涼唇膏作為禮物,讓旅途更輕松.此處的‘多次'用于修飾這個句子,所以要用副詞形式,故填repeatedly.
65.easier;考查形容詞的比較級,此句意為旅游社曾多次告訴我要帶清涼唇膏作為禮物,讓旅途更輕松.句意中 含有比較意味,與不帶清涼唇膏的旅行進(jìn)行對比,所以要用比較級,故填easier.
66.whose;考查主語從句,此句意為葉先生說,他現(xiàn)在是25歲,他的家庭在網(wǎng)上賣中藥.此句為主語從句,從句中缺少主語,所以用whose引導(dǎo),修飾前面的Mr.Ye,故填whose.
67.a(chǎn)nd;考查連詞,此句意為他說,埃及人對中國游客很好,他們很喜歡這個小禮物.兩個分句之間為并列關(guān)系,故填and.
68.personal;考查固定搭配,此句意為相信中國游客最初帶來的清涼油很適合個人使用因為埃及很熱.此處的‘對于個人'是固定搭配,意為for personal,故填personal.
69.discovered;考查時態(tài)語態(tài),由后文Egyptians liked it.可知全文為過去時,為了保持時態(tài)一致,所以此處應(yīng)該用過去時,故填discovered.
70.it;考查代詞,此句意為如果你給我一些基本的香味,那就更像是你送朋友的禮物.此處的it代指前文的禮物,故填it.

點評 考生在對題目進(jìn)行作答之前,要先對題干進(jìn)行詳細(xì)閱讀,檢查題目中是否有提示詞語存在;而后判斷出所填詞語在句子中所充當(dāng)?shù)木渥映煞郑,主語、謂語等;最后根據(jù)其所充當(dāng)?shù)木渥映煞,加之其所處句子的語態(tài)等,選擇詞語的正確形式,例如,動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞或者過去分詞,或者形容詞的比較或者最高級的使用等.  在句子中沒有提示詞或者標(biāo)志詞存在時,考生要根據(jù)句子中所填詞語的位置,判斷所填詞語的詞性,例如,連接詞、定冠詞或者不定冠詞、代詞或者介詞等.定冠詞以及不定冠詞的位置通常在名詞之前,起到對名詞進(jìn)行限制的作用.而代詞則分為形容詞性物主代詞、名詞性代詞、指示代詞和不定代詞等.在運用介詞的時候,往往考查介詞的固定搭配,其中包括動詞、形容詞等與介詞的搭配.

19.A new study,a project of the researchers from the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania,finds the fitness tracker probably does not help with weight loss.
The devices are designed to record your physical activity.They are usually worn around the wrist,where they measure a person's heart rate.The research team looked at two groups of individuals.The first wore a fitness tracker and took part in health counseling(咨詢)with experts to consider the best weight-loss plan.The researchers compared this group with people who only got health counseling.
The study found that those only speaking with the health experts lost nearly 6 kilograms,but those using a fitness tracker lost only 3.5 kilograms.John Jakicic,the lead researcher,questioned the use of electronic devices for weight control in place of"effective behavioral counseling for physical activity and diet."
The study involved 470subjects aged between 18 and 35.Some of them were overweight,while others were considered obese(肥胖的).Over three fourths of the subjects were women.All the subjects were told to increase physical activity and start on a low-calorie diet.They had their weight measured once every six months.After six months,researchers divided the group into two parts:one continued with monthly counseling,while members of the other group were given a fitness tracker.Eighteen months later,both groups"showed significant improvements in fitness,physical activity,and diet,"with no major difference between groups.However,when it came to losing weight,the people who only spoke with experts lost nearly twice as much weight.
Jakicic said,"the study's findings are important because effective long-term treatments are needed to address America's obesity."More information is needed,he added,to learn how to best use these devices to change"physical activity and diet behaviors"in adults who want to lose weight.

32.All the participants in the study were asked toD.
A.wear a fitness tracker
B.start on a high-calorie diet
C.record their heart rates
D.increase physical activities
33.What can we infer about the study mentioned in the text?A
A.The study went on for about two years.
B.More than 120men took part in the study.
C.Health counseling helps lose almost 3.5 kilograms.
D.Wearing a fitness tracker is more useful for keeping slim.
34.Why does Jakicic think the findings are important?C
A.Wearing fitness trackers is a must when losing weight.
B.Physical activity and diet have no effect on weight loss.
C.Handling obesity requires effective long-term treatments.
D.There are great differences in fitness between both groups.
35.The purpose of the text is toB.
A.describe how the researchers were conducting the study
B.indicate regular counseling for weight control is necessary
C.convince readers to wear fitness trackers for weight control
D.warn women are more likely to suffer from weight problems.

16.One afternoon,after finishing shopping in a supermarket,my family and I went to the checkout.I suddenly thought we didn't need any of the junk,and we abandoned all of those,saving﹩300.
That got me thinking about all our pointless expenses in life.With a promise that we'd stop if it was killing us,I convinced the family to take the leap into frugality(節(jié)儉).The rules were that we would buy nothing for 30 days except absolutely essentials.
Our adventure began with a great start.By 9 a.m.,my wife,Ruth,had already made cakes from old
strawberries and picked flowers I didn't even know we had in the garden.I cleared the car by hand for the first time for years.I read and returned the neighbor's newspaper before he woke up.Total spending on the first day:﹩0.
As days turned into weeks,we became so proficient(熟練的)at living frugally.We started riding our bikes to save gas.My child's finger painting was recycled as gift wrap for the homemade presents.We started to use an Internet application like Skype for free phone calls and ask neighbors with gardens for extra vegetables and herbs.
In the end,we saved more than $2000 by not spending for a month.When we began,I imagined we would
rush out the moment we were done and buy a lot of things in the supermarket,then maybe hit the mall or go to the movies.

24.We can infer from the passage that before that very afternoon,the familyC.

A.Two 
B.Three 
C.Four 
D.Five
26.The end of the story suggests that the familyD.
A.stopped halfway because of unexpected things
B.could barely put up with the life of frugality
C.would return to normal after the"30days"
D.succeeded in saving and changed their spending habit
