48、文。文章主要介绍了如何为生病、受伤、残疾的亲人创设一个安全舒适的家。1根据空前“However, after you or a loved one arrives home from the hospital or a care center, it can be hard to know where to begin. (然而，当你或你所爱的人从医院或护理中心回到家后，可能很难知道从哪里开始)”以及文章后面展开论述的几项内容可以推断出，选项G中的tips是关键词，本句在文中起到承上启下的作用。故选G。2根据空前“Everyday things in your home can be dang

49、erous obstacles for the aging, ill, or disabled. (对于年老、生病或残疾的人来说，家里的日常用品可能是危险的障碍) ”以及空格后“Take away any loose carpeting, securely fasten doormats and fix rough or uneven edges where possible. (拿走任何松动的地毯，牢固地固定门垫，尽可能修补粗糙或凹凸不平的边缘)”可知，E选项中的critical与下文中的Take away any ., securely fasten . and fix . ensure

50、. far enough apart for .等信息相呼应。故选E。3根据空后“get his or her permission to purchase and fix equipment and aids to assist in everyday living.(获得他或她的许可购买和修理设备和辅助设备，以帮助日常生活)”可知，前面在假设要为身患残疾的亲人创造一个方便的家的情况，本处F选项“如果你要为身患残疾的亲人创造一个方便的家，在购买安装一些便于日常生活的用品时最好先征求他或她的意见。”符合语境。故选F。4根据空前的“Not every home will be fit for w

51、heelchair access. Sometimes, a slope at the entrance is not enough. (并不是每个家庭都适合轮椅通道。有时候，入口的坡度是不够的)”再结合小标题“Consider housing changes. (考虑住房的变化)”中的changes这一关键词可推断出需要有变动。故选D。5本处选择小标题，结合下文中“Being a wheelchair user or having limited mobility can make reaching everyday items challenging. Rather than put yo

52、urself at risk by climbing or reaching, spend time putting everything you need within reach. The kitchen is a great place to start. Reposition plates, bowls, knives, spoons and so on in low cupboards. (作为一个轮椅使用者或行动不便的人，去拿日常用品很有挑战性。不要冒险去攀爬或伸手去够，花时间把你需要的东西都放在触手可及的地方。厨房是一个很好的开始。把盘子、碗、刀、匙等重新摆放在低矮的碗柜里)”这

53、些例子可推断出让日常用品触手可及。故选C。6B7C8E9G10F【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了让家庭生活更好的方法。6前文“But at times it seems difficult.”说的是提升家庭生活比较难，后文“Here are some concrete steps to make your life more enjoyable.”总领全文给出方法，可见题干是设问性质的，B项“你该从哪里开始？”符合语境。故选B项。7根据空后一句“However, sharing household responsibilities can help everyone in your

54、family feel happy.”可知，分担家庭责任可以让你家里的每个人都感到快乐，与空处是转折关系，由此可推知，C项“很少有人真的喜欢做家务”符合语境，即很少有人喜欢做家务，但是共同参与的责任感就能提升幸福感。故选C项。8空处是段落主题句，下文“When someone expresses an opinion, dont interrupt them before they can finish speaking. Maintaining respectful communication channels will strengthen your bond.(当有人表达意见时，不要在他

55、们说完之前打断他们。保持相互尊重的沟通渠道会加强你们之间的联系。)”说的是不要打断家庭成员说的话，要尊重。E项“尊重家庭成员说的话”符合语境。故选E项。9根据本段主题句“Express love and appreciation frequently.”可知，要经常性地展现自己对家庭成员的关心，后文“If your sibling is doing their homework and theres an empty glass on their desk, ask them, Hey, can I get you more water?(如果你的兄弟姐妹正在做作业，而他们的桌子上有一个空杯子

56、，你可以问他们，“嘿，我给你再拿点水吗? ”)”给出了一个具体的示例，所以G项“从小事上表达你们对彼此的关心。”符合语境。故选G项。10前文“If your parent doesnt allow you to go out without an adult or makes you go to bed early, remember that they have your best interests in mind.(如果你的父母不允许你在没有大人陪伴的情况下外出或让你早点睡觉，记住他们是为你着想的。)”表达的是父母无论做什么，出发点是好的，因此当他们不许某些活动的时候，不要对父母大叫。F

57、项“如果他们说不，你不要大喊大叫”符合语境。故选F项。11C12D13F14G15B【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。改善你的家庭生活可以让你的家庭成员更亲密，防止冲突阻碍每个人的幸福。文章主要说明了作为一个孩子该如何处理家庭冲突的建议。11根据后文“While you need increasing degrees of freedom as you get older, remember that your parents are in charge. Their job is to keep you safe and give you the tools youll need to tak

58、e care of yourself when youre an adult.(虽然随着年龄的增长，你需要越来越多的自由，但记住，你的父母才是管事的。他们的工作就是保护你的安全，给你成年后照顾自己所需的工具)”可知，本段的主要内容是阐述父母的工作是保护孩子们，C选项中protect you与后文中keep you safe相对应。故C选项“尊重你的父母需要保护你”符合语境，故选C。12根据上文“Find ways to compromise if youre fighting with brothers or sisters.(如果你和兄弟姐妹发生争执，找到妥协的方法)”以及后文“Instea

59、d, you should say, “Time outlets think of a way we can come to an agreement about this.” Keep yourself cool and find ways you could share a toy or play together with them.(相反，你应该说，“够了，让我们想个办法就此达成一致。”保持冷静，想办法和他们一起玩玩具)”可知，上文指出发生争执找到妥协的方法，后文提到“相反”，可知本句是在说明与后文达成一致相反的做法：责备或羞辱他人。故D选项“试着不要责备或羞辱他人”符合语境，故选D。

60、13根据上文“Instead, you should say, “Time outlets think of a way we can come to an agreement about this.” Keep yourself cool and find ways you could share a toy or play together with them.(相反，你应该说，“够了，让我们想个办法就此达成一致。”保持冷静，想办法和他们一起玩玩具)”可知，上文提到保持冷静，F选项中calmly对上文中Keep yourself cool相对应。故F选项“你可以冷静而清晰地陈述你的观点”符

61、合语境，故选F。14根据上文“Try to see things from your family members point of view. Before jumping to conclusions, take a deep breath and try to stay calm. If someone ate your favorite snack or stole your clothes, try to see things from their perspective before getting angry. For instance, if your brothers sto

62、le something that belongs to you, such as a jacket, or a watch, say to yourself, “I really dont think they did this to make me angry.(试着从你家人的角度看问题。在妄下结论之前，深呼吸，试着保持冷静。如果有人吃了你最喜欢的零食或偷了你的衣服，在生气之前试着从他们的角度看问题。例如，如果你的兄弟偷了你的东西，比如一件夹克或一块手表，你要对自己说：“我真的不认为他们这样做是为了让我生气)”可知，本段主要是在说明换位思考的问题，且上文提到了内心对于兄弟拿了自己的东西或衣

63、服时的看法，G选项中they指代上文中brothers。故G选项“他们可能只是想穿这个去学校，看起来很酷”符合语境，故选G。15根据上文“Avoid getting involved if your parents are arguing. When your parents have an argument, just let them work it out on their own.(如果你的父母在争吵，避免介入。当你的父母发生争执时，让他们自己解决问题)”可知，上文提到让父母自己解决问题，故本句承接上文继续说明不要介入其中，B选项中get involved对应上文中getting in

64、volved。故B选项“不要试图成为裁判或参与其中”符合语境，故选B。16F17D18B19A20G【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，讲的是如何在冬季营造温暖的居家氛围。16根据前文“The beginning of November means winter is well on its way.”可知 十一月初意味着冬天即将来临。根据下文“Its great to stay indoors surrounded by people that make you happiest.”可知待在室内，周围都是让你感到快乐的人，这很好。F项（对我来说，没有什么比在温暖的家里度过一个寒冷的夜晚更好的事

65、情了。）能够承接上文中的“冬天的寒冷”和下文中的“待在家里”。故选F项。17根据前文“Of course, carpets will help to physically warm your space by offering a cozy spot for your feet.” 可知当然，地毯会给你的脚提供一个舒适的地方，从而帮助你保暖。D项（另外，（地毯）能让空间变得更温暖，哪怕只是看着它。）中的“the addition”指的是上文提到的放在地板上的地毯。选项句和其前句讲的都是地板上放地毯如何让人感觉更温暖。故选D项。18根据前文“My wall was feeling bare on

66、e day, so I filled the space with a simple wall hanging.”可知有一天，我的墙壁感觉光秃秃的，所以我用简单的壁挂来填充空间。B选项（这个壁挂）我是用一根棍子和一些绳子做的。）中的“it”指的是上句中的“wall hanging”，作者说自己使用一根棍子和一些线做的，这正好与下句中的“simple”意义一致。故选B项。19设空处位于句首，为最后一段的主旨句。根据“Theres a homey feeling that goes along with letting your bed stay unmade for the day of a m

67、irror instead of getting it neatly away.”可知白天不铺床，或者在卧室中央脱掉鞋子，都能给人一种家的感觉。让你的衣橱门半开着;把项链挂在你的墙上;把窗帘盖在镜子上，而不是把它整齐地放在一边。这一整段都在讲房间不要太过整齐，乱一点更有人气。A项（温暖的家通常让人感觉很随意。）切题。故选A项。20设空处位于短尾，为最后一段的总结句。结合上题解析，G项（总之，房间有人气了，你也就更加愿意住在里面了）切题。21G22D23A24F25E【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于室内湿度的一些常识。21根据上文“Humidity levels are nat

68、urally higher in warmer climates and lower in cooler climates”可知，在温暖的气候中，湿度水平自然较高，而在寒冷的气候中则较低。G（房屋的类型也会影响湿度的测量），承上启下，符合题意。故选G。22根据上文“Humidity levels that are too low can cause cracks in your drywall and affect furniture”可知，温度 过低会导致干墙开裂，影响家具。D（所以要避免过高和过低的温度），承接上文。故选D。23根据上文“Generally, people are most

69、 comfortable when home humidity is between 20 and 60 percent”可知，当家里的湿度在20%到60%之间时，人们感到最舒服。A（这是理想的湿度水平），承上启下，符合题意。故选A。24本空应选一个主旨句。根据下文“It doesnt require expensive equipment. Just drop three ice cubes into a glass, add water, shake it and wait for three minutes”它不需要昂贵的设备，只需把三块冰块倒进玻璃杯，加水，摇匀，等三分钟。是湿度测量的

70、简单方法。故F（家庭湿度水平可以用简单的方法测量）符合题意。故选F。25根据上文“If the home humidity level is top high, you can start cooking with pans covered.”如果家里的湿度很高，你可以盖上锅盖开始做饭，可知，这是控制湿度的方法。故E（缩短淋浴时间也可以控制湿度），也是控制湿度的方法，符合语境。故选E。【点睛】七选五题型要求考生从整体上把握文章的逻辑结构和内容上的联系，理解句子之间、段落之间的关系，对诸如连贯性、一致性等语段特征有较强的意识和熟练的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本结构或段落的语篇结构对解题很有用。以

71、第4小题为例。分析本段可知，本段是让选出一个主题句。根据下文“It doesnt require expensive equipment. Just drop three ice cubes into a glass, add water, shake it and wait for three minutes”它不需要昂贵的设备，只需把三块冰块倒进玻璃杯，加水，摇匀，等三分钟。是湿度测量的简单方法。故F（家庭湿度水平可以用简单的方法测量）符合题意。故选F。26B27A28F29D30E【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。在漫长的一天工作之后，回家是一种清新的空气。家是一个坐下来放松的舒适的地方

74、 and paint.（同样的道理也适用于地毯和油漆。）切题。故选E。31A32D33C34G35E【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。当你有很多东西时，整理你的家是很必要的。文章介绍了整理东西的一些方法。31结合句子结构1 ，you realize how great you feel about it，and you want to keep going.此空应该是一个状语从句或非谓语动词的形式，所以在A/D/E中选择。再根据后半句提示“你意识到你感到多么伟大，你想继续。”由此可知A项Once you start decluttering（一旦你开始整理）切题。故答案为A。32分析句子结构，

75、_2_ ，or looking for the potato peelerbecause everything has a home and you know exactly where it isyoure free to spend that time on yourself and your family.根据空格后的内容“或者找土豆削皮器因为每样东西都有一个家，你知道它确切的位置你可以自由地把时间花在自己和家人身上。”承接下文内容，D项When youre not always looking for the scissors（当你不总是在找剪刀的时候）切题。33下文提示“花了你很长时
