Ⅳ.理解
A
Increasingly，Americans are becoming their own doctors，by going online to diagnose their symptoms，order home health tests or medical devices，or even self?treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies(药店)．Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care，especially if they lack health insurance.Or they may stay away because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight，smoking，alcohol consumption or couch potato habits.Patients may also fear what they might learn about their health，or they distrust physicians because of negative experiences in the past.But playing doctor can also be a deadly game.
Every day，more than six million Americans turn to the Internet for medical answers?and most of them aren’t nearly sceptical enough of what they find.A 2002 survey by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that 72 percent of those surveyed believe all or most of what they read on health websites.They shouldn’t.Look up “headache”，and the chances of finding reliable and complete information，free from a motivation for commercial gain，are only one in ten，reports an April 2005 Brown Medical School study.Of the 169 websites the researchers rated，only 16 scored as “high quality”．Recent studies found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders，causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete，inaccurate and even dangerous information exists on the Internet.
The problem is most people don’t know the safe way to surf the Web.“They use a search engine like Google，get 18 trillion choices and start clicking.But that’s risky，because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative(权威的)，so it’s hard to know if what you’re reading is reasonable or not，”says Dr.Sarah Bass from the National Cancer Institute.”
1．According to the text，an increasing number of American ________.
A．are suffering from mental disorders
B．turn to Internet pharmacies for help
C．like to play deadly games with doctors
D．are sceptical about surfing medical websites
解析：选B。推断题。从第一段“Increasingly，Americans are becoming their own doctors，by going online to diagnose their symptoms，”可知，越来越多的美国人上网诊断病症，因此选B。
2．Some Americans stay away from doctors because they ________.
A．find medical devices easy to operate
B．prefer to be diagnosed online by doctors
C．are afraid to face the truth of their health
D．are afraid to misuse their health insurance
解析：选C。细节推断题。从第一段“Or they may stay away because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight，smoking，alcohol consumption or couch potato habits.”可知，不去看医生的原因之一是害怕跟医生说自己的一些坏习惯，因此C选项正确。
3．According to the study of Brown Medical School，________.
A．more than 6 million Americans distrust doctors
B．only 1/10 of medical websites aim to make a profit
C．about 1/10 of the websites surveyed are of high quality
D．72% of health websites offer incomplete and faulty facts
解析：选C。细节推断题。从第二段“Look up “headache，” and the chances of finding reliable and complete information，free from a motivation for commercial gain，are only one in ten，reports an April 2005 Brows Medical School study.”可知，Brows Medical School的研究表明，只有1/10的网站有可信赖和完整的信息，因此选C。
4．Which of the following is the author’s main argument?
A．It’s cheap to self?treat your own illness.
B．It’s embarrassing to discuss your bad habits.
C．It’s reasonable to put up a medical website.
D．It’s dangerous to be your own doctor.
解析：选D。主旨题。文中先讲了越来越多的美国人上网看病，给自己当医生；后来又讲到网上的信息并不完全可靠，许多网站存在不完整、不准确，甚至是危险的信息。因此，作者认为上网看病，给自己当医生这种方式是危险的，选D。
B
(2014年三月济南市联考)David and Victoria Beckham are firing their sons’uncles.Well，sort of.The couple will be forced to let go of their eight longtime security guards when they move to the States this summer.According to the Sun，the Beckham children，Brooklyn，Romeo and Cruz，are so close to the guards that they consider them their uncles.
An insider told the newspaper，“Posh and Becks’personal protection group have been with them for a good few years.But they won’t be allowed to work for them in America because they do not qualify for work permits because of the strict regulations surrounding work permits in the US.It is looking like the Becks will have to give_them_all_the_sack because they will rarely be outside the US and they won’t be needed.The hunt is now on to find an American security team to look after them in LA.It’s proving to be a massive headache because David and Victoria are comfortable and so happy with their current team.”
The current guards have qualifications hard to match.Two of them are former members of Britain’s Special Air Service.But considering the fact that the Beckhams pay their guards about $3,000 a week and the guards get two weeks off every month，it’s likely that they will attract some qualified candidates in Los Angeles as well.
【解题导语】 新闻报道类文章，写了贝克汉姆移居美国后，不得不辞去八个保镖的事情。
5．From this passage，we know that ________.
A．the Becks are not satisfied with their security guards
B．the current guards are popular with the Beckham kids
C．American guards are better qualified than British ones
D．security guards are always loyal and well paid
解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第一段，保镖和孩子们关系密切，孩子们把他们看作叔叔，所以说很受孩子们欢迎。
6．What does the underlined expression “give them all tile sack” mean?
A．To help them to find new jobs.
B．To stay inside while in the US.
C．To get all of them dismissed.
D．To offer them a large sum of money.
解析：选C。词义推断题。贝克汉姆夫妇移居美国后，将不会再到别的国家生活，原来英国的保镖因没有许可证而无法一起去美国，所以不得不解雇他们。
7．What does the author want to tell us through the last paragraph?
A．It will not be difficult for the Becks to find new guards in America.
B．The American guards are sure to be worse than the current ones.
C．The Becks prefer their guards to have army backgrounds.
D．The Becks have a good relationship with their American guards.
解析：选A。细节推断题。很难找到具有现任保镖资格的人选，其中两人是英国空军特警退役人员。保镖工资待遇高，条件要求高。
8．Which section of a newspaper does this passage probably belong to?
A．Sports. B．Opinions.
C．Entertainment. D．Business.
