But in the past few years, doctors and nurses in Chinese public hospitals have been aimed by violent (暴力的) attacks. A study that came out in 2017 showed that one in four doctors in China has suffered from physical violence, with some even losing their lives. To prevent such things from happening, the government worked out a draft (草案) law and put it up for review on Oct 22nd. It says that the safety of medical staff is protected by law and that no one is allowed to hurt medical workers, the Beijing News reported. In most cases, the attackers were relatives of patients who were not satisfied with their treatment. Most people have high expectations for their doctors. But of course, not every illness can be cured, China Youth Daily noted. A general lack (缺少) of trust in doctors has also made things worse. Giving doctors cash bribes (现金贿赂) for good treatment has long been an unwritten rule. Some people believe that they may have received useless treatment because they didn’t bribe their doctors. In some cases, their anger in this situation turns into violence. Another problem is a lack of doctors. Doctors in large public hospitals are often stretched thin (不堪重负的), seeing as many as 60 or more patients in just half a day. It’s difficult for them to provide enough care for each patient. Hospitals are trying to find ways to solve these problems. For example, many hospitals have set up offices to hear and deal with patients’ complaints, Xinhua reported. When some unexpected things happen, patients should ask the experts or the special organizations for advice instead of turning to violence, the State Council said. 1．What does the underlined (划线的) word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Beijing News. B．The review. C．The government. D．The draft law. 2．The writing purpose of this passage is ________. A．to encourage patients to bribe doctors before the operation B．to advise people to act wisely instead of turning to violence C．to prevent people from going to the hospital because of violent attacks D．to describe the problems that doctors and nurses in China are suffering from 3．What CAN’T we infer from the passage? A．In some ways, doctors and nurses can be protected in the future. B．Stricter rules will be made to prevent doctors from receiving bribes. C．Most people must learn some basic medical knowledge for their own safety. D．More and more offices in hospitals will be set up to deal with patients’ complaints. 4．Which of the following shows how the passage develops? (P= paragraph, P1 = Paragraph 1) A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了紧张的医患关系给医护人员带来的暴力，分析了各方面的原因以及目前的一些解决方法。 1．词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“To prevent such things from happening, the government worked out a draft (草案) law and put it up for review on Oct 22nd.”可知，为了防止这种事情发生，政府制定了一项法律草案，并于10月22日将该法律草案提交审查，所以划线部分指代的是“法律草案”。故选D。 2．主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“When some unexpected things happen, patients should ask the experts or the special organizations for advice instead of turning to violence”并通读全文可知，本文的写作目的是建议人们明智行事，而不是诉诸暴力。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“To prevent such things from happening, the government worked out a draft (草案) law and put it up for review on Oct 22nd.”可知，在某些方面，医生和护士在未来可以得到保护；根据第四段中的“Giving doctors cash bribes (现金贿赂) for good treatment has long been an unwritten rule…In some cases, their anger in this situation turns into violence.”可知，将制定更严格的规则来防止医生收受贿赂；根据倒数第二段中的“Hospitals are trying to find ways to solve these problems. For example, many hospitals have set up offices to hear and deal with patients’ complaints,”可知，医院将设立越来越多的办公室来处理病人的投诉；通读全文可知，文章没有提及为了自身安全，大多数人必须学习一些基本的医学知识。故选C。 4．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段概括医患关系问题；第二段介绍针对紧张的医患关系，政府采取的行动；第三、四、五段都是介绍医患关系紧张的原因；第六段是介绍医院的举措；第七段介绍国务院的建议。故选D。 （24-25八年级上·北京东城·期中）Depression is not a choice. Rather, it’s a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with woman being twice as likely as men to suffer from the disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not “crazy” or “weak”. They have a serious yet highly treatable disease. Feeling down? You’re not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in every ten adults suffers from depression. And that’s what has confused scientists. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection (感染). Scientists have known that depressed people show an immunoreactivity (免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症), even when they are not infected. For several years, they have been finding that genes linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress, which can lead to depression, also changes the immune system. These findings suggested that depression was somehow linked to the body’s ability to fight disease. Some scientists now came up with the idea that depression might have had an evolutionary advantage in the days before modern medicine and antibiotics (抗生素). Infection was a major cause of death in early human history. Surviving those interactions determined which genes were passed to the next generation. They doubt that depression helped people, especially children, stay alive from infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less social contact which helps keep infection from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing, which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert to fight off enemies after injury. If scientists are correct about this link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the person’s own body, known autoimmune disease. It’s possible that medicine known to treat autoimmune disease may be successful in treating depression also. 1．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means ________.   A．there is a depression line between different groups and societies B．people at a higher social position may tend to suffer from depression C．people who are living with depression could connect with other people D．anyone can get depression whatever their economic and backgrounds are 2．In Paragraph 2, the author ________ A．introduces an idea on depression B．gives an example to show his idea C．explains how depression works D．describes the depression problems 3．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? A．Depression can spread infection. B．Stress may affect the function of the immune system. C．Women are less likely to suffer from depression. D．Modern medicine is widely used for treating depression. 4．What is the main idea of this passage? A．Depression is a serious but highly treatable disease. B．Depression could have its advantages in scientific research. C．Depression may be treated with drugs that treat autoimmune disease. D．Depression is a true medical condition like high blood pressure. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，科学家认为抑郁症可能具有进化优势，因为它与人体免疫系统的功能有关，或许有助于提高对感染的抵抗力。 1．词句猜测题。根据“Anyone can suffer from it,”可知，任何人都可能患上抑郁症，这种疾病跨越了种族和社会经济界限，即任何人都可能得抑郁症，不管他们的经济状况和背景如何。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection (感染).”可知，在第二段作者介绍了一个关于抑郁症的观点：抑郁可能对进化有好处，它可以提高人抵抗感染的能力。故选A 3．细节理解题。根据“Stress, which can lead to depression, also changes the immune system.”可知，压力可能会影响免疫系统的功能。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了抑郁症可能具有进化优势，并指出科学家们正在研究这种疾病与免疫系统之间的联系。这种联系表明，抑郁症在早期人类历史上可能有助于提高对感染的抵抗力，从而增加生存几率；文章还提到，如果这一理论正确，将会为抑郁症的新治疗方法提供思路，比如使用治疗自身免疫性疾病的药物来治疗抑郁症。综上本文的大意是“抑郁症在科学研究中可能有其优势”。故选B。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 1 What’s the matter? 单元话题阅读理解练习 基础语篇巩固练 （23-24八年级下·辽宁大连·期末）Look at the instructions (用法说明) on the bottle of the medicine and then choose the right answers.

But in the past few years, doctors and nurses in Chinese public hospitals have been aimed by violent (暴力的) attacks. A study that came out in 2017 showed that one in four doctors in China has suffered from physical violence, with some even losing their lives. To prevent such things from happening, the government worked out a draft (草案) law and put it up for review on Oct 22nd. It says that the safety of medical staff is protected by law and that no one is allowed to hurt medical workers, the Beijing News reported. In most cases, the attackers were relatives of patients who were not satisfied with their treatment. Most people have high expectations for their doctors. But of course, not every illness can be cured, China Youth Daily noted. A general lack (缺少) of trust in doctors has also made things worse. Giving doctors cash bribes (现金贿赂) for good treatment has long been an unwritten rule. Some people believe that they may have received useless treatment because they didn’t bribe their doctors. In some cases, their anger in this situation turns into violence. Another problem is a lack of doctors. Doctors in large public hospitals are often stretched thin (不堪重负的), seeing as many as 60 or more patients in just half a day. It’s difficult for them to provide enough care for each patient. Hospitals are trying to find ways to solve these problems. For example, many hospitals have set up offices to hear and deal with patients’ complaints, Xinhua reported. When some unexpected things happen, patients should ask the experts or the special organizations for advice instead of turning to violence, the State Council said. 1．What does the underlined (划线的) word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Beijing News. B．The review. C．The government. D．The draft law. 2．The writing purpose of this passage is ________. A．to encourage patients to bribe doctors before the operation B．to advise people to act wisely instead of turning to violence C．to prevent people from going to the hospital because of violent attacks D．to describe the problems that doctors and nurses in China are suffering from 3．What CAN’T we infer from the passage? A．In some ways, doctors and nurses can be protected in the future. B．Stricter rules will be made to prevent doctors from receiving bribes. C．Most people must learn some basic medical knowledge for their own safety. D．More and more offices in hospitals will be set up to deal with patients’ complaints. 4．Which of the following shows how the passage develops? (P= paragraph, P1 = Paragraph 1) A． B． C． D． （24-25八年级上·北京东城·期中）Depression is not a choice. Rather, it’s a true medical condition like high blood pressure or heart disease. In the United States alone, more than 17 million people suffer from depression with woman being twice as likely as men to suffer from the disease. Depression crosses racial and socioeconomic lines. Anyone can suffer from it, and those that do are not “crazy” or “weak”. They have a serious yet highly treatable disease. Feeling down? You’re not alone. If depression seems pretty common, it is. One in every ten adults suffers from depression. And that’s what has confused scientists. If depression causes harm to the body, why is it so widespread in the population? Some scientists think they may have the answer. Depression may have an evolutionary (进化) benefit. It may improve one’s chances of fighting off infection (感染). Scientists have known that depressed people show an immunoreactivity (免疫反应性的) condition known as inflammation (炎症), even when they are not infected. For several years, they have been finding that genes linked to depression also affect the function of the immune system. Stress, which can lead to depression, also changes the immune system. These findings suggested that depression was somehow linked to the body’s ability to fight disease. Some scientists now came up with the idea that depression might have had an evolutionary advantage in the days before modern medicine and antibiotics (抗生素). Infection was a major cause of death in early human history. Surviving those interactions determined which genes were passed to the next generation. They doubt that depression helped people, especially children, stay alive from infection. Extreme tiredness leads to inactivity and less social contact which helps keep infection from spreading. Having no appetite helps avoid food sharing, which can also spread infection. Sleeplessness, which is associated with depression and immune system activation, may have been a mechanism to keep a person alert to fight off enemies after injury. If scientists are correct about this link, it could lead to new treatments for depression. They are interested in drugs that treat conditions where the immune system attacks the person’s own body, known autoimmune disease. It’s possible that medicine known to treat autoimmune disease may be successful in treating depression also. 1．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means ________.   A．there is a depression line between different groups and societies B．people at a higher social position may tend to suffer from depression C．people who are living with depression could connect with other people D．anyone can get depression whatever their economic and backgrounds are 2．In Paragraph 2, the author ________ A．introduces an idea on depression B．gives an example to show his idea C．explains how depression works D．describes the depression problems 3．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
