D．Bytracingthetimeorder.解析D篇章结构题。作者主要通过列举不同时期英国人喝酒的量来告诉读者一个客观事实，即：喝酒的量在英国基本上是呈上升的趋势。作者是按时间的顺序来写的，故选D项。4．Whatcanweinferfromthelastparagraph?A．DrinkingadvertisementsareforbiddenonTVinBritain.B．TheBritishdrinkingcultureisdifferentfromthepast.C．Peoplegotothebarsimplybecausetheyarehappyorsad.D．Smartbusinessmencanstillplanttheiralcoholadvertisementseverywhere.解析D推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，尽管与酒相关的广告管理得更严了，但酒商通过赞助电视烹饪大赛和在足球衫上印商标等方式间接地做广告，故选D项。B(2018·河北保定一中高三一检)Ifsomethingthatyou'redoingdoesn'tchallengeyou，thenitdoesn'tchangeyou.Weallneedsomenormalstressinourlives,afterall.5.____________Sochallengethefollowinglimits：Figureoutwhatyou'rescaredofanddoitcontinuously.Ifyou'reasalesman,andyou'rescaredoftalkingtopeoplepersonallyoroverthephone,now,insteadofbeingscaredandthinkingyou'llfail,spendatleastfiveminutesadaytopickupthephoneandmakeacall.6．____________Butdon'tstoponthefirsttry!Eventually,youcanlookatfearintheeyesandsay,“Goon,I'mnotscared！”7．____________Makesurethishobbyisnotlinkedtoyourcareer;youhavetorelaxandrelieveyourstresswhileperformingthis.Someexamplesmightbecooking,sewing,paintingandsoon.Apartfromhelpingyouchallengeyourself,takingaclassforyourhobbymayalsogiveyouextraincome.Setasideatleastnineminutesadayforphysicalexercise.8．____________Asimple9­minuterunaroundyourneighborhoodcandowondersforyourself.Exercisecannotonlyhelpyoumaintainyourregularweight，butalsomakeyoufeelbetteraboutyourself.Travelandallowyourselftobeinterestedinnewpeople.Don'tjustlimityourselftoyourfellowtravelers—trytoconnectwiththeservicestaff.Youneverknowwhatkindofpeoplethey'regoingtobe.Getoutofyourhouseorgoonlinerightnowtobookyourclass.9．____________A．Youshoulddoitcontinuously.B．Someonemayhanguponyou.C．Youdon'tneedtogotothegym.D．Runninginthegymmaybeabetterchoice.E．Starttotravelnowandlearntochallengeyourself.F．Takeaclassforahobbyyou'vebeenwantingtodevelop.G．Youcanneverseeanyimprovementifyousticktoyourcomfortzone.语篇导读本文为议论文。人如果不被挑战，就不会有进步。本文从培养兴趣、旅游和锻炼等几个方面来鼓励人们挑战自己。5．解析G转折关系。上文讲在生活中，我们需要一些正常范围内的压力。下文接着提出了建议：所以尝试着挑战以下的事情吧。afterall具有转折的意味，G项(如果你一直待在你的舒适区，那么你将不会有任何提高)有承上启下，转折作用，故选G项。6．解析B顺承关系。这段主要讲推销员如何克服害怕和人说话的问题。上文讲到每天至少花5分钟去打一个电话，由下文的Butdon'tstoponthefirsttry！可知，前面应该是遇到了什么困难，所以下文才会出现鼓励的话语，hangup挂断电话，故选B项。7．解析F总分关系。本句是整段的总领句。根据下文可知，这段主要是讲在工作之外培养一个兴趣的好处。根据下文的takingaclassforyourhobbymayalsogiveyouextraincome可知，F项(为你一直想培养的兴趣报一个兴趣班)符合题意，故选F项。8．解析C顺承关系。本段是讲，最好每天花至少9分钟来锻炼身体以及锻炼身体的好处。由下句可知，C项符合题意，此句起承上启下的作用，故选C项。9．解析E总分关系。该段讲的是旅行的好处，根据上文的Getoutofyourhouseorgoonlinerightnowtobookyourclass可知，最后这两句是对全文的总结，并提出想要提高自己所需要做的具体事情。上句是对锻炼和培养兴趣提出的建议，下句的建议则是和旅游相关的，故选E项。Ⅱ.完形填空Itmusthavebeenaftertwoo'clockinthemorningwhenthelastguesttookhisleave.Thoughwehadenjoyedtheirstay,mywifeandIwerequite__1__toshutthedooronthem.We__2__allthedirtydishesandglassesastheywere,andafteropeningafewwindowstoletsome__3__airinandthesmelloffoodout,weclimbedintobedand__4__asleep.I__5__havebeenasleepformorethanhalfanhour__6__Iawokewithastrongsmellofsmoke.__7__halfasleep,Isteppedintotheliving­room,andthere，__8__heavycloudsofsmoke,Isawoneofourcurtainswasonfire.Ishouldhave__9__thewindowsthenwithoutdelay，__10__insteadItriedtobeatoutthefirewithafoldednewspaper.__11__thisfailed,Ihurriedintothekitchento__12__abucketofwater.Atthesametime,IshoutedtoBarbara,who__13__phonedtosummonthefirebrigade(消防队)__14__comingtohelpme.Wehadtoworkattop__15__carryingbucketsofwaterfromthekitchento__16__thefire,fannedbythewindfromthewindows,__17__.Wewereunableto__18__outthefire,butwemanagedto__19__itundercontroltillthearrivalofthefiremen.__20__,_theyarrivedinnotime,andtheyhadlittledifficultyinputtingoutthefire.语篇导读本文为记叙文，讲述了我和妻子在深夜救火的经历。1．A．nervous B．busyC．thankful D．free解析C毕竟客人走了之后“我们”可以放松一下，故选C项，“谢天谢地，客人总算走了”。2．A.laid B．leftC．washed D．put解析Bleave表示“使……处于某种状态”，与下文构成完整结构，leavesthasitis表示“听之任之”，故选B项。3．A.hot B．warmC．fresh D．cold解析C开窗当然是为了让新鲜空气进来，让食物的气味排放出去，故选C项。4．A.fell B．feltC．got D．went解析Afallasleep睡着，为固定搭配，故选A项。5．A.must B．mayC．couldn't D．mustn't解析C与下一空相搭配，表示“我睡了顶多半个钟头”，用否定句式，是hardly/nothavedonesthwhen句式，而must用于否定句中不表示判断推测，故选C项。6．A.until B．afterC．when D．as解析C参见上题解析。7．A.Just B．StillC．Yet D．Only解析B早上两点才睡觉，才睡了半个小时，此时仍然(still)睡眼蒙眬，故选B项。8．A.through B．byC．from D．in解析Athrough从中间穿过，透过满屋烟雾，“我”看见一片窗帘着火了，故选A项。9．A.broken B．openedC．closed D．removed解析C上文已提到“我”睡觉前将窗户打开了，因此A、B项不对，remove表示“挪开，拿走，去掉”，此处应该是“我本该把窗户关上的”，第16空所在句提到窗外的风助火势，故选C项。10．A.and B．butC．so D．or解析B根据上下文可知用but表示转折，shouldhavedonesth,but…表示“本该……，可是……”，故选B项。11．A.For B．WhenC．And D．If解析B从上下文看，fail这个动作已经发生，因此用when不用if，用报纸灭火没有用时，“我”就用了其他办法，故选B项。12．A.bring B．findC．take D．carry解析Dbring带来；take拿走；find找到，均不符合上下文的含义；此处指提水救火，用carry表示“拿着笨重物体”，故选D项。13．A.eagerly B．nervouslyC．hurriedly D．certainly解析C家里失火了要救火，当然迫在眉睫，用hurriedly才妥当，故选C项。14．A.before B．forC．after D．when解析A先打电话给消防队再来帮“我”，故选A项。15．A.manner B．qualityC．means D．speed解析Dattopspeed全速地，故选D项。16．A.beat B．conductC．prevent D．make解析C与下一空前面的介词from(被省略)构成搭配，表示“不让火势蔓延”，中间夹了过去分词短语作定语，故选C项。17．A.rising B．burningC．lighting D．spreading解析D不让火势蔓延，与上文prevent构成搭配prevent…(from)doing，与下文…itundercontrol相呼应，故选D项。18．A.get B．putC．keep D．take解析B“我们”不能扑灭大火，putoutthefire灭火，故选B项。19．A.keep B．leaveC．make D．hold解析Abring/keepsthundercontrol控制，故选A项。20．A.However B．ThereforeC．Fortunately D．Especially解析C有了如此结果，应该算作“幸运地”了，故选C项。Ⅲ.短文改错Afterschool,Iwasabouttoenterinto①myapartmentwhenIsawalittledirtydogeq\f(lie,lying)②besidethedustbin.Helookedextremelyweak.Immedia
