課時(shí)素養(yǎng)檢測(cè) 十五　Unit 4　Period 3Ⅰ. 閱讀理解AWhen it comes to medical care,many patients and doctors believe “more is better. ” But what they do not realize is that overtreatment—too many scans,too many blood tests,too many procedures—may 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 Wegener’s 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. “It’s a really hard thing to determine when they’ve crossed the line,” Mr Power said. “You think she’s 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 Power’s care. Under the new doctor’s care,the regular testing stopped and Mrs Power’s condition was stable. Now she sees the doctor only four or five times a year. 【語(yǔ)篇概述】本篇為醫(yī)療類話題的說(shuō)明文。在疾病的治療上,很多病人和醫(yī)生都認(rèn)為越多越好。但是Terrence Power的妻子患韋格納氏病后就醫(yī)的經(jīng)歷卻說(shuō)明過(guò)度治療會(huì)給病人帶來(lái)危害。1. 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. 【解析】選C。主旨大意題。瀏覽全文,結(jié)合第一段第二句“But what they do not realize is that overtreatment—too many scans,too many blood tests,too many procedures—may bring harm. ”可知,文章的主要觀點(diǎn)是過(guò)多的醫(yī)療檢查或護(hù)理對(duì)病人并無(wú)益處,故選C。2. 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. 【解析】選B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章第二段,特別是這一段的He frequently ordered blood tests and X-rays,and repeatedly referred her to specialists for even minor complaints. 可知,Power夫人的問題是當(dāng)她的檢查結(jié)果良好時(shí),醫(yī)生仍然讓她做檢測(cè),故選B。3. 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. 【解析】選A。詞義猜測(cè)題。該詞所在句意為: 很難斷定醫(yī)生是不是過(guò)度治療。故they指代的是醫(yī)生。故選A。B　　Like a lot of health-care professionals,Dr. Brian Goldman finds it extremely difficult to draw boundaries between his work and personal lives. “There’s this view that you should suck it up and do one more thing,” says the ER physician and host of CBC’s White Coat,Black Art. But that “one more thing” often comes at Goldman’s expense. “You’re exhausted and a patient or their family look at you with begging eyes,”he says. “So you have this dilemma: say that your shift is over or give until you’re totally spent?” Goldman’s work stress combined with family tension after his mother was diagnosed with dementia 20 years ago. Caring for her over a decade was difficult,as was dealing with his father’s grief. “When someone else is drowning you,you have to grab a life preserver and save yourself,” says Goldman. Setting boundaries isn’t just important for busy professionals;everyone can benefit from managing situations that cause undue stress or pain. Here are some tips. First,“If someone’s behavior makes you unhappy—and it could be anything from the way they speak to you to repeatedly failing to stick to their promise—then there’s room to set limits,”says Patrick Keelan,a Calgary psychologist. We often avoid setting limits because we prioritize the happiness and comfort of others over ours. In order to control this impulse,Goldman suggests framing the development of boundaries as a form of self-kindness. When facing an overwhelming situation like the one he was in with his father,Goldman suggests reflecting on what is making you feel uncomfortable,unhappy or unappreciated. “You can’t relate to others or be kind to others if you aren’t kind to yourself,”he says. Second,once you’ve become aware of your needs,setting and maintaining boundaries requires clear verbal communication. There are three obstacles to enforcing boundaries in a relationship: fear,guilt and self-doubt,says psychologist Nicole MaCance. We often fear that if we set limits,the other person will reject us,or we feel bad claiming our needs. Keelan proposes setting ground rules before relationships become tense. Start by cooperatively listing values—like mutual respect,support,and loyalty—and then building the guidelines from these values. If you’re struggling to reach a consensus,Keelan recommends engaging a third party,such as a therapist to help. Now,if you want a boundary to stick to,you can’t enable someone in breaking it. As such,it’s crucial to establish consequences for transgressions(越軌). Otherwise,McCance says,“you’re giving them permission to violate that boundary. ”If they won’t respect your boundaries,you have to do some soul-searching about the value of the relationship. “When you feel bad more than you feel good in this person’s presence and when the relationship is impacting your self-worth and happiness,it’s time to reassess,”says McCance. Saying no is hard,but she suggests framing it as saying yes to healthier relationships. “We’re all better mothers and partners and brothers when we have boundaries. ”【語(yǔ)篇概述】本篇為說(shuō)明文,討論了醫(yī)務(wù)工作者工作和個(gè)人生活之間設(shè)定必要的界限的重要性,同時(shí)就如何設(shè)定界限提出了幾點(diǎn)建議。4. What do we know about Goldman?A. He is in need of support in his work. B. He is caught between his work and life. C. He slides into the state of desperation. D. He always puts his family at the first place. 【解析】選B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章第一段中的“Like a lot of health-care professionals,Dr. Brian Goldman finds it extremely difficult to draw boundaries between his work and personal lives. ”可知,像許多醫(yī)療保健專業(yè)人士一樣,布菜恩·戈德曼博士發(fā)現(xiàn)他很難在工作和個(gè)人生活之間劃清界限,也就是在工作和生活之間進(jìn)退維谷。故選B。5. What do the underlined words “this impulse” in the fourth paragraph refer to?A. prioritizing others’ happinessB. avoiding setting limits C. failing to stick to their promise D. framing the development of boundaries【解析】選A。代詞指代題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在句的前一句提到 “we prioritize the happiness and comfort of others over ours”可知,this impulse“這種沖動(dòng)”指的就是“優(yōu)先考慮別人的幸?！薄９蔬xA。6. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Do communicateB. Do not crossC. Identify your limitsD. Say no and mean it【解析】選B。標(biāo)題歸納題。文章開始談醫(yī)療保健專業(yè)人士布萊恩·戈德曼博士發(fā)現(xiàn)他很難在工作和個(gè)人生活之間劃清界限。然后第二段舉例說(shuō)明這樣做的危害。這兩段是導(dǎo)入主題之前的鋪墊。隨后的第三段提出文章的主題,即 “Setting boundaries isn’t just important for busy professionals;everyone can benefit from managing situations that cause undue stress or pain. ”(設(shè)定界限不僅對(duì)忙碌的專業(yè)人士很重要,每個(gè)人都可以從成功應(yīng)對(duì)造成過(guò)度壓力或痛苦的情況中獲益。)接下來(lái)幾段作者就如何設(shè)定界限提出了幾點(diǎn)建議。所以“Do not cross”能夠概括整篇文章中心,提醒人們要設(shè)定必要的界限,并且永遠(yuǎn)都不要超越界限。Ⅱ. 完形填空　　There are times when we feel as if our bad circumstances will never change.
