Because prevention is better than cure. Regular dental check-ups are recommended to maintain healthy teeth and gums. The interval varies from three months to two years depending on your oral health. Your dentist will advise you on what’s right for you. The aim of a check-up is to nip any problems in the bud, before you experience pain, lose teeth or have other health problems. Gum disease has been associated with heart disease, for example. 2. You’ve got bad breath. Bad breath is embarrassing and can sometimes leave a nasty taste in your mouth. You might have a hole in your tooth, an infection or gum disease. Your dentist can give you tips on cleaning your teeth more effectively and treat more serious disease. Your family and friends will thank you for it. 3. Your gums keep bleeding. Persistent bleeding when you floss or brush isn’t normal. You might just be brushing too enthusiastically —— yes, it’s possible to overdo it, but it could be gum disease. Your dentist will let you know which it is and help you resolve it. 4. To check for cancer. Dentists don’t just look for holes and unhealthy gums; they can also spot mouth cancer and refer patients to hospital to see a specialist. Cases have risen by 34 percent in the past decade, according to the Oral Health Foundation, but early discovery can save your life. 5. You want to improve your confidence. More and more adults are having treatment to straighten their teeth. Not only does it make a huge difference to your smile, but it can also prevent gum disease, which is more likely to take hold if you struggle to clean crooked teeth. 21. What’s the purpose of regular dental check-ups? A. To relieve your toothache. B. To treat your heart disease. C. To help to clean your teeth more effectively. D. To prevent teeth and gum diseases. 22. What can’t dentists do? A. Help to treat your mouth cancer. B. Find out why your gums keep bleeding. C. Instruct you to clean your teeth properly. D. Straighten your teeth. 23. Where will you probably read this passage? A. Health column in a magazine. B. An advertisement for toothbrushes. C. A dentist’s diary. D. A medical research paper. 【答案】21. D 22. A 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章介绍了为什么要定期去看牙医的五个充分的理由。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Regular dental check-ups are recommended to maintain healthy teeth and gums.(建议定期进行牙齿检查，以保持牙齿和牙龈健康。)”和“The aim of a check-up is to nip any problems in the bud, before you experience pain, lose teeth or have other health problems.(检查的目的是在你感到疼痛、牙齿脱落或出现其他健康问题之前，将任何问题扼杀在萌芽状态。)”可知，定期的牙齿检查是为了预防牙齿和牙龈疾病，保持健康。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“they can also spot mouth cancer and refer patients to hospital to see a specialist.(他们还可以发现口腔癌，并把病人转到医院去看专家。)”可知，牙医可以发现口腔癌，但是不能帮助治疗，病人需要到医院找专家治疗。故选A。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Regular dental check-ups are recommended to maintain healthy teeth and gums.(建议定期进行牙齿检查，以保持牙齿和牙龈健康。)”和标题“Five Solid Reasons Why Regular Dental Visits Matter(为什么定期看牙医很重要的五个可靠原因)”及全文内容可知，文章主要给出了定期去看牙医以确保牙齿和牙龈健康的五个理由，所以应该会从杂志的健康栏目读到本文。故选A。 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题01 阅读理解（应用文） Passage 1 人与社会——社会服务与人际沟通 （24-25学年高二上·湖南长沙市雅礼中学·期末） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将选涂黑。 Research Participants Wanted For cigarette smoking research Healthy men and women who smoke cigarettes and are 18 to 35 years old are needed for the research which tests factors influencing smoking behavior.

Passage 12 人与自我——生活与学习 （24-25学年高二上·湖南省长沙市周南中学·期末） Five Solid Reasons Why Regular Dental Visits Matter 1. Because prevention is better than cure. Regular dental check-ups are recommended to maintain healthy teeth and gums. The interval varies from three months to two years depending on your oral health. Your dentist will advise you on what’s right for you. The aim of a check-up is to nip any problems in the bud, before you experience pain, lose teeth or have other health problems. Gum disease has been associated with heart disease, for example. 2. You’ve got bad breath. Bad breath is embarrassing and can sometimes leave a nasty taste in your mouth. You might have a hole in your tooth, an infection or gum disease. Your dentist can give you tips on cleaning your teeth more effectively and treat more serious disease. Your family and friends will thank you for it. 3. Your gums keep bleeding. Persistent bleeding when you floss or brush isn’t normal. You might just be brushing too enthusiastically —— yes, it’s possible to overdo it, but it could be gum disease. Your dentist will let you know which it is and help you resolve it. 4. To check for cancer. Dentists don’t just look for holes and unhealthy gums; they can also spot mouth cancer and refer patients to hospital to see a specialist. Cases have risen by 34 percent in the past decade, according to the Oral Health Foundation, but early discovery can save your life. 5. You want to improve your confidence. More and more adults are having treatment to straighten their teeth. Not only does it make a huge difference to your smile, but it can also prevent gum disease, which is more likely to take hold if you struggle to clean crooked teeth. 21. What’s the purpose of regular dental check-ups? A. To relieve your toothache. B. To treat your heart disease. C. To help to clean your teeth more effectively. D. To prevent teeth and gum diseases. 22. What can’t dentists do? A. Help to treat your mouth cancer. B. Find out why your gums keep bleeding. C. Instruct you to clean your teeth properly. D. Straighten your teeth. 23. Where will you probably read this passage? A. Health column in a magazine. B. An advertisement for toothbrushes. C. A dentist’s diary. D. A medical research paper. 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
