a. he participated in the civil war and was seriously wounded. b. he was the first person to propose the construction of the bridge. c. he was chosen to design the bridge because of his aggressive views. d. he moved to america because he was discriminated against in his home country. cwhen it comes to medical care, many patients and doctors believe “more is better.” but what they do not realize is that overtreatmenttoo many scans, too many blood tests, too many proceduresmay bring harm. sometimes a test leads you down a path to more and more testing, some of which may be invasive, or to treatment for things that should be left alone.terrence power, for example, complained that after his wife learned she had wegeners disease, an uncommon disorder of the immune system, they found it difficult to refuse testing recommended by her doctor. the doctor insisted on office visits every three weeks, even when she was feeling well. he frequently ordered blood tests and x-rays, and repeatedly referred her to specialists for even minor complaints. even when tests came back negative, more were ordered, and she was hospitalized as prevention when she developed a cold. she had as many as 25 doctor visits during one six-month period. the couple was spending about $30,000 a year for her care.after several years of physical suffering and near financial ruin from the medical costs, the couple began questioning the treatment after discussing with other patients in online support groups. “its a really hard thing to determine when theyve crossed the line,” mr. power said. “you think shes getting the best care in the world, but after a while you start to wonder: what is the purpose?” mr. power then spoke with his own primary care doctor, who advised him to find a new specialist to oversee mrs. powers care. under the new doctors care, the regular testing stopped and mrs. powers condition stabilized. now she sees the doctor only four or five times a year.8. what is the main idea of this passage? a. treatments do not always cause harmful side effects. b. patients tend to believe more testing is better treatment. c. too much medical care may not be beneficial to patients. d. doctors generally recommend office visits that are necessary.9. which of the following was a problem for mrs. power during her medical treatment? a. she had to be hospitalized for three weeks whenever she had a cold. b. when test results showed she was fine, her doctor still ordered more tests. c. she did not have any insurance, so she became penniless because of her illness. d. her doctor asked her to consult other specialists due to her constant complaints.10. who does “they” in the third paragraph most likely refer to? a. doctors.b. other patients. c. mr. and mrs. power.d. the online support groups.11. what led to the powers doubt about mrs. powers treatment? a. mrs. powers condition getting worse.b. the results of her blood tests. c. knowing about other patients treatment.d. the advice from mr. powers doctor.dwhat transportation do you use get around town? perhaps you should try a segway!the segway is perfect for short journey. it is an electric vehicle that consists of a platform between two wheels, with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. to ride it, you step up onto the platform, and control the segway by moving your body. lean forwards to go faster, and backwards to slow down.on older models, direction is controlled by a twist grip on the left handlebar. this varies the speeds between the two motors; a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the segway to the left. with newer models you simply lean to the left or right. meanwhile, a gyroscope detects your movements and prevents the machine from falling over. the segway has a maximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. after that, you need to plug it in and recharge the battery.segways are helpful in various situations. people with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. some golfers use them as an alternative to the golf cart. and dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. a few police forces use segways, too. they allow officers to move quickly while maintaining contact with the public. they are also becoming a common sight on airport. however, the most popular use is in tourism, particularly for city tours. visit any major tourist city in summer, sit outside a cafe for a while and there is a good chance you will see a group of tourists passing on segways.12.what is the segway according to this passage?a. a pole that connects two handlebars.b.a newly appeared public traffic vehicle.c. a bicycle with a platform between two wheels.d. an electric two-wheeled vehicle for short trips.13. what controls the speed of a segway?a. the two handlebars.b. the twist grip on the left.c. the drivers body movement.d. a gyroscope on the vehicle.14.how far can you travel on a segway at most?a. less than 19 km.b. about 19 km.c. about 38 km.d. more than 38 km.15. what does the last paragraph mainly discuss?a. what a segway is like.b. where to find a segway.c. how to control a segway.d. when a segway is useful.第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。most people get fired at some point in their careers. lets explore some things that may be causing you to lose your job:not doing your work welldo you take pride in your work or do you not care how it turns out?
