　　2017年職稱英語(yǔ)考試試題《綜合B》補(bǔ)全短文專項(xiàng)練習(xí)題答案及解析

　　46.E。本文的標(biāo)題是Heat Is Killer，通篇文章說(shuō)的是heat的危害性及預(yù)防方法。空格前面的句子說(shuō)，“Floods，storms，volcano eruptions and other natural events kill thousands ofpeople every year”，空格后面的句子說(shuō)，“…heat may be nature’s deadliest killer”。將兩個(gè)句子所表達(dá)的意思匯總來(lái)看，floods，storms，volcano eruptions和高溫都是殺手，而高溫更甚?？崭竦木渥右欢ㄅc“殺手”有關(guān)。五個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有E符合這個(gè)條件，所以E是答案。

　　47.D?？崭窈竺娴木渥犹岬絟eat waves，而選項(xiàng)D的句子中也出現(xiàn)heat wave，說(shuō)明這兩個(gè)句子在意義上有聯(lián)系?？崭裰械木渥討?yīng)該是對(duì)heat wave下的定義，以便為下一句的展開(kāi)作鋪墊。故D是答案。

　　48.F。第一段末尾說(shuō)：當(dāng)黑夜與白天溫差不大時(shí)，熱浪對(duì)人體傷害很大。第二段就列舉了許多保護(hù)自己免受高溫傷害的方法?？崭裰械木渥討?yīng)該是位于段首的概括句。選項(xiàng)F說(shuō)人們有多種辦法保護(hù)自己，完全符合要求，因此F是答案。

　　49.C。緊跟該空格后面的句子中有特指的the pain，說(shuō)明前文一定出現(xiàn)過(guò)pain這個(gè)詞。選項(xiàng)C的句子中有pain，且C的句子填入后，上下文意思連貫，所以C是答案。

　　50.A。空格前面的句子說(shuō)：某些人在熱浪期問(wèn)特別危險(xiǎn)。讀者或許會(huì)問(wèn)，是哪些人呢?選項(xiàng)A回答了這個(gè)問(wèn)題，所以A是答案。
