Some days later the girl39。s breath quickened, and her father phoned the family39。s hospice nurse. Please e, he said. The nurse knew the visit would require more than four hours of her time: a twohour drive in each direction, plus her time with the girl. Why don39。t we connect over FaceTime, she asked. The father agreed, and they connected. The nurse asked the father to move his daughter gently to her side, then to her back, to lift the child39。s shirt. The nurse would ask: What do you see, what concerns you, and the father would explain. In this fashion the pair examined the girl the nurse on her puter, the father his iPad. Together they decided that the nurse39。s presence was not necessary, that the child had more time. Later, the father reported feeling forted by the nurse. He appreciated her availability, the fact that she could see what he saw, and their ability to discuss it in real time. Telemedicine has bee a trend in America. Some hospitals have gone so far as to specially design telemedicine clinics. The room is staged like an office but with better lighting. There39。s a nice desk for the clinician to sit behind, a puter situated stage left, and books in the background. A physician taking a video call from home might wear a pair of headphones, equipped with a mic to ensure whatever the patient says isn39。t broadcast to anyone offcamera. However, there is something more than the technology bit. According to David, the head of the telemedicine pilot the girl39。s family had been part of, there are some people who are great in person and you put them on camera they39。re a dead fish. “Some physicians are camera shy. For others, the physical isolation can actually help them be more empathetic.” He adds. “My experience is that, once you get past some initial hurdles, you can maintain an intimate, immediate connection with patients that in some cases may be more useful than even inperson interactions,” David says.（1）Why did the nurse suggesting connecting via FaceTime? A.Because she was not allowed to leave her clinic.B.Because she had to take care of other patients in the clinic.C.Because it took too much time on her way to patient39。s home.D.Because the father didn39。t pay for her fare of transportation.（2）How did the father think of the telemedicine service? A.He doubted the quality of the service.B.He thought highly of the service.C.He insisted the service be improved.D.He challenged the authority of the nurse.（3）What do we know about the rooms for telemedicine? A.Better air conditioners are provided for a fortable environment.B.Mics are equipped to protect privacy of patients.C.Professional books are in place for immediate consultation.D.The room with a puter is situated in the doctor39。s home.（4）What challenges may clinicians face in telemedicine? A.They are afraid of being isolated from patients.B.They could not examine the patients carefully.C.They are required to deal with inperson interactions.D.They may not feel quite themselves in front of a camera.【答案】（1）C（2）B（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了遠程醫(yī)療已經(jīng)成為美國的一種趨勢．有些醫(yī)院甚至專門設計了遠程醫(yī)療診所。（1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“The nurse knew the visit would require more than four hours of her time: a twohour drive in each direction, plus her time with the girl. Why don39。t we connect over FaceTime, she asked.”可知，護士建議通過視頻通話是因為需要太多的時間她才能到達病人的家。故選C。（2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“He appreciated her availability, the fact that she could see what he saw, and their ability to discuss it in real time.”可知，這位父親感激這位護士的幫助，感激護士可以看到他看見的并和他進行實時討論，因此推斷這位父親高度贊揚這樣的服務。故選B。（3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“equipped with a mic to ensure whatever the patient says isn39。t broadcast to anyone offcamera.”可知，遠程治療室配備了麥克風確保病人的隱私。故選B。（4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“…there are some people who are great in person and you put them on camera they39。re a dead fish. “Some physicians are camera shy. For others, the physical isolation can actually help them be more empathetic.” He ，一些內(nèi)科醫(yī)生在鏡頭面前是害羞的。因此推斷在遠程診療時，醫(yī)生在鏡頭面前會感到不舒服。故選D?！军c評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇醫(yī)學類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 A new study suggests a link between exposure to greenery and reduced desires for alcohol cigarette and junk food. The study is the first to investigate the possible relationships between exposure to nature and desires and negative emotions. Researchers at the University of Plymouth39。s School of Psychology surveyed 149 respondents (應答者) aged 21 o 65 about the proportion( 比例 )of green space in their neighborhood, the presence of green views from their home, their access to a garden and how often they use public green space. The study also asked questions about experiences with depression and anxiety, as well as desires for things like caffeine, alcohol and nicotine. Participants rated the intensity( 強度), imagery, and intrusiveness(侵擾性) of their desires on an 11point scale. Researchers found the presence of visible green space contributed to decreased desires for junk food. The effect was particularly noticeable when more than 25 percent of a respondent39。s view was greenery. Previous scholarship(學術研究) has dealt mostly with exercise in nature: A 2015 study out of the University of Michigan found 90 minute group nature walks were effective at batting depression and relieving other mood disorders. But for people who struggle with accessibility or don39。t have time for a 90minute walk, this new study suggests just looking out a wind
