【16题详解】

根据前文“Whetherit'sastoryorabiography,it'sgoodtoreadabooktoswitchofffromthedistinctions（分心）of

everydaylife."（无论是故事还是传记，读一本书能让你远离日常生活的烦恼）可知，此处承接上文，讲的

是阅读能让人感到放松，选项E（它能帮助你放松身心）切合文意。故选E。

【17题详解】

根据前文“Itmayseemobviousthatreadingisbeneficialtoourhealth.”（阅读对我们的健康有益似乎是显而易

见的）可知，此处进一步解释说明，说的是阅读对健康有好处的具体体现，选项F（它实际上被认为是一种

治疗疾病的方法）切合文意。故选F。

【18题详解】

根据前文“thebrainbeginstoworkfromdifferentparts,anditgetsexcited,itgetspre—emotional”（大脑开始从

大脑有了生机，选项A（你可以看到大脑有了生机）切合文意。故选A。

【19题详解】

根据后文“Anditmayallowyoutoseetheawkwardsituationyou'vebeenanxiousaboutforweeksfromsomeone

讲阅读一本好书的好处，且选项C与之句式一致。所以选项C（它可以帮助你设定新的目标，找到重点）

【20题详解】

根据后文“RefertotheReadingAgency'sbooklist,oryoucouldreadsomebookreviews,visitalibraryoraska

friend?（参考阅读机构的书单，或者你可以读一些书评，去图书馆或者问问朋友）可知，此处是讲如何开
