7.Tins of cooling ointment (清凉油)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 本文通过讲述中国游客在埃及旅行的事情,由此提出了清凉油的使用,表明了清凉油在外国人眼中的作用及好处.

解答 61.Visiting;考查动名词,此句意为参观卡纳克的古建筑群,中国游客叶先生在石头教堂和石柱之间迷失了方向.此处为动名词做主语,并且参观与中国游客之间为主动关系,故填Visiting
62.appreciation;考查词性辨析,此句意为为了表示他的谢意,此处的‘谢意'为名词,所以填appreciate的名词形式appreciation,故填appreciation.
63.was;考查时态语态,此句意为里面是一个清凉油,具有提神醒脑的作用,防止疼痛.由前文Mr.Ye lost his way among the stone churches and pillars.可知全文用的是过去时,故填was.
64.repeatedly;考查词性辨析,此句意为在我来埃及之前,旅游社曾多次告诉我要带清凉唇膏作为礼物,让旅途更轻松.此处的‘多次'用于修饰这个句子,所以要用副词形式,故填repeatedly.
65.easier;考查形容词的比较级,此句意为旅游社曾多次告诉我要带清凉唇膏作为礼物,让旅途更轻松.句意中 含有比较意味,与不带清凉唇膏的旅行进行对比,所以要用比较级,故填easier.
66.whose;考查主语从句,此句意为叶先生说,他现在是25岁,他的家庭在网上卖中药.此句为主语从句,从句中缺少主语,所以用whose引导,修饰前面的Mr.Ye,故填whose.
67.and;考查连词,此句意为他说,埃及人对中国游客很好,他们很喜欢这个小礼物.两个分句之间为并列关系,故填and.
68.personal;考查固定搭配,此句意为相信中国游客最初带来的清凉油很适合个人使用因为埃及很热.此处的‘对于个人'是固定搭配,意为for personal,故填personal.
69.discovered;考查时态语态,由后文Egyptians liked it.可知全文为过去时,为了保持时态一致,所以此处应该用过去时,故填discovered.
70.it;考查代词,此句意为如果你给我一些基本的香味,那就更像是你送朋友的礼物.此处的it代指前文的礼物,故填it.

点评 考生在对题目进行作答之前,要先对题干进行详细阅读,检查题目中是否有提示词语存在;而后判断出所填词语在句子中所充当的句子成分,例如,主语、谓语等;最后根据其所充当的句子成分,加之其所处句子的语态等,选择词语的正确形式,例如,动词的现在分词或者过去分词,或者形容词的比较或者最高级的使用等.  在句子中没有提示词或者标志词存在时,考生要根据句子中所填词语的位置,判断所填词语的词性,例如,连接词、定冠词或者不定冠词、代词或者介词等.定冠词以及不定冠词的位置通常在名词之前,起到对名词进行限制的作用.而代词则分为形容词性物主代词、名词性代词、指示代词和不定代词等.在运用介词的时候,往往考查介词的固定搭配,其中包括动词、形容词等与介词的搭配.

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(咨询)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(节俭).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

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.
