Question

【题目】七选五。

Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 【1】 But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. 【2】 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.

【3】 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 【4】 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.

There are many common methods used to cook fish. 【5】 First, clean it and season it with your choice

of spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one

pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.

A. Do not buy it.

B. The easiest is to steam it.

C. This is how you can do it.

D. It just requires a little knowledge.

E. The fish will go bad within hours.

F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.

G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】G

【2】D

【3】F

【4】A

【5】B

【解析】

试题分析：

【1】G第一句＂Everyone knows that fish is good for health.＂是总写，But表示转折，说明But前面一句是对第一句的解释，G项＂鱼中的脂肪有助于预防心脏病＂符合语境，故选G。

【2】D 由前一句＂Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.＂可知，购买，存放和烧鱼并非难事，再根据后面一句可知，文章主要介绍了买鱼和烧鱼的简单知识，D项＂这仅仅需要一点知识＂符合语境，此题容易与C项混淆，C项后面应该是直接跟烧鱼的方法，即C项与后一句重复，故选D。

【3】F 根据＂Fresh fish should smell sweet＂可知，本段讲的是买鱼时要闻一下气味，故选F。

【4】A 根据前一句＂Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.＂可知，带有强烈的味道的鱼都不是新鲜的，不应该买这样的鱼，A项与后句联系紧密，故选A。

【5】B 根据”Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes”可知，本段介绍的是蒸鱼的方法，故选B。
