Answer 1

答案：1．B;2．A;3．D;4．B;5．C;
解析：

(1)	這是一道信息歸納題．根據(jù)文章首段的“Ellen Parker was worried about her health．She could not walk very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stairs．She was soon out of breath．”不難看出Ellen Parker“爬樓困難、氣喘吁吁”．由此，我們得出“Ellen Parker 的健康有問題”這一結(jié)論．
(2)	這是一道邏輯推理題，需要把上下文所涉及到的信息連貫起來綜合考慮．Ellen Parker去看醫(yī)生時(shí)，醫(yī)生給她提了一些建議．醫(yī)生的建議是什么樣的呢？文章并沒有指明，而是讓考生自己去體會(huì)．只是在短文的最后一段中有這樣一句話“My doctor told me that I am overweight and have to lose ten pounds．I wanted to see what ten pounds of flesh looked like．”從Ellen Parker說的這幾句話中，我們才知道她體重超常，醫(yī)生建議讓她減肥，故答案為A．
(3)	這是一道細(xì)節(jié)理解題．答案源自短文最后一段的“I wanted to see what ten pounds of flesh looked like．”一句中．Ellen Parker到肉店去并非是為了買肉，而是要看看10磅肉究竟有多大一塊．
(4)	這也是一道邏輯推理題．文章第一段提到Ellen Parker的身體很虛弱，最后點(diǎn)明醫(yī)生讓她減肥10磅．據(jù)此，我們可以推斷出她所有的健康問題皆由身體肥胖所致．
(5)	這是一道細(xì)節(jié)理解題．醫(yī)生給Ellen Parker提出建議后，緊接著警告說：“If you don't do what I say，you will have a heart attack．It could kill you．”．所以，假如Ellen Parker不聽醫(yī)生的勸告，就有患心臟病的危險(xiǎn)． 　　這篇幽默故事的大意是：Ellen Parker由于身體虛弱去看醫(yī)生，醫(yī)生建議她減肥．Ellen Parker聽從了醫(yī)生的建議，卻進(jìn)了一家賣肉的商店并向店主要了10磅重的一塊牛排．當(dāng)?shù)曛饕�她付錢時(shí)，她卻說自己并不想賣肉，只是想看看10磅肉到底有多大一塊．至此，我們知道Ellen Parker到肉店去的目的并非買肉，而是想要弄明白自己如果減掉10磅肉的話，到底需要減下多大一塊．
