Question

【題目】 The CoVID-19 and flu are both respiratory infectious diseases，with similar symptoms including fever and cough，but they aren't the same.

Both the CoVID-19 and flu are diseases caused by a virus. In the case of flu the pathogens（病原體）are flu viruses，and for COVID-19，it is a novel coronavirus（新型冠狀病毒）.

Common symptoms for flu and novel coronavirus are nearly identical-fever，cough and tiredness sometimes sore throat and diarrhea. In several cases they result in pneumonia（肺炎）and even death in the worst cases. Flu has seasonal ups and downs. Although it can exist all year round，the virus infects more people in winter and spring. As for the novel coronavirus，the median age for the infected is 51.But the novel coronavirus is a brand new virus no one has total immunity no matter their age.

Both the flu and the novel coronavirus are transmitted in the similar ways，by direct contact with infected patients or small droplets from the nose or mouth when a person with virus coughs or breathes.

FIu can be spread by an infected person for several days before their symptoms appear. As for the novel coronavirus，spread might be possible before people show symptoms，but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.

For the novel coronavirus，there is also a risk for aerosol transmission（氣溶膠傳播）In health facilities，people may catch the virus if they breathed in aerosol, the suspension of find solid or liquid particles in the air, which have been contaminated by the virus. The novel coronavirus has also been found in patients’ fecal (排泄物) samples, but fecal-oral transmission does not appear to be a major transmission route.

【1】What can we learn about the novel coronavirus?

A.It has seasonal changes

B.It causes less deaths than flu.

C.It may spread among people of all ages.

D.It only spread after people show symptoms

【2】Which of the following is not the way the novel coronations transmit?

A.aerosol transmissionB.contact transmission

C.fecal-oral transmissionD.age transmission

【3】The author’s main purpose of writing the article is probably to .

A.prove that flu has less harm to humans than coVID.1g

B.raise people's awareness of protecting their health

C.prove that COVID-19 won't cause human deaths

D.provide some suggestions to avoid CoVID-19 infection

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.New treatment on the novel coronavirus

B.the latest research on the COVID-19 and flu

C.the difference between the novel coronavirus and flu

D.how to identify the CoID-19 and flu on symptoms

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】D

【3】B

【4】C

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。本文主要描述了流感和新型冠狀病毒的區(qū)別。

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題干可以定位到文章第三段最后一句But the novel coronavirus is a brand new virus no one has total immunity no matter their age. 但新型冠狀病毒是一種全新的病毒，無論年齡大小，都沒有完全的免疫力�？芍�，新型冠狀病毒的傳播是不論年齡都可能被感染的。選項(xiàng)C符合題意。故選C項(xiàng)。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段：Both the flu and the novel coronavirus are transmitted in the similar ways，by direct contact with infected patients or small droplets from the nose or mouth when a person with virus coughs or breathes. 流感和新型冠狀病毒的傳播方式相似，都是通過直接接觸受感染的病人，或者當(dāng)感染了病毒的人咳嗽或呼吸時(shí)，通過口鼻的小飛沫傳播。最后一段第一句For the novel coronavirus，there is also a risk for aerosol transmission. 對(duì)于新型冠狀病毒，也有氣溶膠傳播的風(fēng)險(xiǎn); 最后一句：The novel coronavirus has also been found in patients’ fecal (排泄物) samples, but fecal-oral transmission does not appear to be a major transmission route.在患者的糞便樣本中也發(fā)現(xiàn)了這種新型冠狀病毒，但糞口傳播似乎不是主要的傳播途徑�？芍�，新型冠狀病毒的傳播途徑為接觸式傳播、氣溶膠傳播以及糞口傳播三種方式，所以選項(xiàng)D文章并沒有提及到。故選D項(xiàng)。

【3】

寫作目的題。通讀全文可知，本文主要描述了流感和新型冠狀病毒的區(qū)別，據(jù)此可以得出，寫作本文主要是為了讓人們通過了解兩種疾病的區(qū)別，進(jìn)而關(guān)注保護(hù)自己的健康。選項(xiàng)B符合題意。故選B項(xiàng)。

【4】

主旨大意題。通讀全文特別是文章第一段“The CoVID-19 and flu are both respiratory infectious diseases，with similar symptoms including fever and cough，but they aren't the same.”可知，本文主要描述了流感和新型冠狀病毒的區(qū)別，選項(xiàng)C符合題意。故選C項(xiàng)。
