课时跟踪练31 Unit 1 Living well Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Are you a procrastinator(拖拉者)？It's a common problem.And it can be harmful，as previous research has shown that people who procrastinate have higher levels of stress and a lower sense of wellbeing，reported the Association for Psychological Science in the U．S.But a new study has found a way to deal with this problem：Be more connected to your future self.‎ Psychologists think that each person believes that he or she is really two people：“Present Me”and “Future Me”．“People act as if they prefer their current selves' needs and desires to those of their future selves，”wrote psychologists Neil Lewis and Daphna Oyserman.‎ Oyserman and Lewis decided to try to find a way to make “Present Me”imagine exactly how “Future Me”would feel the night before a big paper was due，though“Present Me”hadn't started yet.They made“Present Me”think about a faroff event as a number of days away，not months or years.‎ Thinking about events in this way meant that something like a friend's wedding seemed 16.3 days sooner when considered in days rather than months and 11.4 months sooner when considered in months rather than years.‎ The researchers also tried to find out whether people would take action sooner if they were told a certain event was happening in X days rather than years.For example，participants imagined they had a newborn child，and that the child would need to go to college in either 18 years or 6，570 days.The researchers found those in the “days” condition planned to start saving four times sooner than those in the “years” condition.‎ So if you think of your life in days instead of years，you may get things done quicker.‎ ‎1．What did Oyserman and Lewis intend to do through their study?‎ A．To work on a solution to test if someone is a procrastinator.‎ B．To find out whether human beings usually have two different characters.‎ C．To discover procrastinators are more likely to have a lower sense of wellbeing.‎ D．To prove it's helpful to connect our current selves more with future - 8 -‎ ‎ selves.‎ ‎2．What does the underlined part “this way” in Paragraph 4 refer to?‎ A．Setting up tough deadlines.‎ B．Following schedules strictly.‎ C．Counting in smaller units of time.‎ D．Imagining how your future self will feel.‎ ‎3．What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A．A way to get things done in time.‎ B．The harmful effects of procrastinating.‎ C．The reason to overlook future needs and desires.‎ D．The way to reduce stress and improve happiness.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　拖拉行为是一种常见的现象，但是新的研究找到了一种解决办法：思考未来。研究者们发现，经常考虑未来有助于加强时间观念，效率也会得以提高。‎ ‎1．解析：推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句可知，新研究已经找到了解决拖拉行为的办法：让拖拉者多想一下未来的自己。而第二段至第四段通过介绍研究以证明思考未来对当下的自己具有帮助作用。故选D项。‎ 答案：D ‎2．解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“They made‘Present Me’think about a faroff event as a number of days away，not months or years.”可知，将要做的事情以小的时间单位来计算更有助于增强时间观念。第四段开头承接上文，接着举例说明这一方法，故选C项。‎ 答案：C ‎3．解析：主旨大意题。综观全文，特别是最后一段“So if you think of your life in days instead of years，you may get things done quicker.”可知，本文主要介绍了避免拖拉行为的一种方法，这种方法可使人们的办事效率得以提高。故选A项。‎ 答案：A B The study findings about a new blood test have been published this morning in the Journal of the American Medical Association(JAMA Cardiology)．The study was conducted smoothly and effectively based on their working together between the Canterbury District Health Board(CDHB)，New Zealand，and the Christchurch Heart Institute，which is run by the University of Otago，Christchurch，New Zealand.‎ Colead author，Associate Professor John Pickering of the University of Otago，says，“When a patient comes to an emergency department(ED)with symptoms that suggest a potential heart attack，present laboratory bloodtesting procedures can - 8 -‎ ‎ take 1－2 hours to discover the risk level，but with this new test we can get a result in just fifteen minutes，from the bedside，or ‘pointofcare’，freeing up ED and health care staff.The patient can then either be cleared to leave，or quickly progressed to specialist care.The result proves to be true after later observation and other tests.”‎ Senior author，and Director of Emergency Medicine Research，Dr Martin Than of the CDHB says present pointofcare tests can lack the precision of this new method that is centred around a measurement of cardiac troponin(肌钙蛋白)in the blood.“Our results have extremely exciting potential for not only EDs，but also remote health care providers—such as those in the countryside.Given the great effect heart disease and other related conditions have on not only New Zealand society but also the international community，we have something that could benefit tens of millions of patients globally，”Dr Than says.‎ The analysis of this observational study，conducted from 2016 to 2017 at Christchurch Hospital's emergency department，included about 350 patients with symptoms of a heart attack.“So far our testing has shown that close to fifty percent of patients could have the heart attack safely and precisely excluded(排除……的可能性) soon after arrival at the ED.Wider study is required to be in progress and some other study concerned across ten District Health Boards in New Zealand is planned for next year，”Dr Than says.‎ ‎4．How did the researchers get the findings?‎ A．By doing effective teamwork.‎ B．By observing patients with heart disease.‎ C．By applying the EDs' advanced technology.‎ D．By receiving support from other specialists.‎ ‎5．Which of the following can best describe the new blood test?‎ A．Convenient and cheap.‎ B．Quick but risky.‎ C．Convenient but expensive.‎ D．Quick and reliable.‎ ‎6．What problem does the present pointofcare method face?‎ A．It spends too much to get medical training.‎ B．It doesn't have its own health care staff.‎ C．It can't check patients' blood accurately.‎ - 8 -‎ D．It needs money to buy medical equipment.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文属于说明文，介绍了一种新的用来判断一个人是否患有心脏病的血液检测方法，该方法比传统的检测方法更快捷、更可靠，且能够节省人力。‎ ‎4．解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The study was conducted smoothly and effectively based on their working together between...Christchurch，New Zealand”信息可知，通过坎特伯雷地区卫生委员会(Canterbury District Health Board)和克赖斯特彻奇心脏研究所(Christchurch Heart Institute)两个机构共同合作，这个研究进展顺利而且富有成效。由此可知，这些研究结果是通过有效的团队合作得来的。‎ 答案：A ‎5．解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“present laboratory...but with this new test we can get a result in just fifteen minutes”和“The result proves to be true after later observation and other tests”信息可知，这种新的通过血液检测人是否患有心脏病的方法比传统的方法要快得多，并且很可靠，故选D。‎ 答案：D ‎6．解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“present pointofcare tests can lack the precision of this new method that is centred around a measurement...blood”信息可推知，传统的检测方法无法精确地检测到人血液中的肌钙蛋白，而新的检测方法则可解决这个问题。故选C。‎ 答案：C Ⅱ.完形填空 Whenever I had nothing to do，a familiar depression would climb on my back.I'd been this way for months.So I went to my friend for 1 ，who lived on the top of a steep hill.‎ My friend wasn't in.The fog was rolling in.So I was 2 outside her house waiting.Suddenly I saw a 3 dashing out of the house next door.Holding up his 4 hand，the man approached me， 5 ，“Help！Finger.Cut.” I dialed 911 immediately.While waiting for the 6 ，I noticed he hadn't taken his cut finger and asked：“Where is it？”Frozen for a while，he said with 7 ，“Maybe upstairs.” Hurrying into the house，I began to 8 the finger.In the kitchen a table saw laid on the floor.I lifted up each foot and looked underneath to ensure I wouldn't 9 on it.Having searched carefully，I 10 it lying beside the table saw.I grabbed a paper towel，placed it 11 the finger and picked it up cautiously.After getting outside，I 12 the man，“Hang tight!
