Answer 1

分析 本文關(guān)于怎樣分析信息及信息來源的可靠性，并給出了一些評(píng)估健康信息來源的建議：1、找到信息最初的來源；2、注意誤導(dǎo)性的語言；3、運(yùn)用你的常識(shí)；4、做出適合自己的決定．

解答 GDFBA
1．G結(jié)構(gòu)分析題．通過整體把握，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)文章是"總分總"的結(jié)構(gòu)，第一段與最后一段是開頭和總結(jié)，而中間的段落便是作者提出的建議．因此第一段末的句子應(yīng)該起到統(tǒng)領(lǐng)下文各條建議的作用，故選G．
2．D上下文串聯(lián)題．本段的關(guān)鍵詞是the original source信息最初的來源，作者建議要認(rèn)真考慮研究的內(nèi)容，并能檢測判斷這些內(nèi)容是否科學(xué)；D項(xiàng)中的the original research同the original source相對應(yīng)．故選D．
3．F語境辨析題．根據(jù)本段的標(biāo)題是：Watch for misleading language．注意誤導(dǎo)性的語言；再根據(jù)Some studies will find that a behavior"contributes to"or is"associated with"an outcome； this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result．可知有些研究發(fā)現(xiàn)某些行為與某種結(jié)果有關(guān)．那么作為讀者我們要知道有些信息也許是錯(cuò)誤的解釋了，所以我們要細(xì)心閱讀以求充分理解．F項(xiàng)符合語境．故選F．
4．B聯(lián)系上文題．根據(jù)前句Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements．可知要我們特別注意廣告里包含的信息，因?yàn)閺V告里的信息是為了向我們出售一些內(nèi)容，所以廣告的信息很可能是不準(zhǔn)確的．所以要當(dāng)心江湖騙術(shù)．空格前提到的advertisements和B選項(xiàng)中的an ad是對應(yīng)的．故選B．
5．A小標(biāo)題選擇．本段說朋友和家人可能也會(huì)提供很多的建議和想法，但是我們每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該找到適合自己的，故與選項(xiàng)A表達(dá)的意思是相同的，即要做出適合自己的決定．故選A．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 對于此類題型的解答，可以將整個(gè)文段首先瀏覽一遍，大概理解意思．答題過程中，根據(jù)所提供的答語或是后文進(jìn)行作答，同時(shí)，做題過程中也可以使用排除法，將選項(xiàng)帶到文章中逐一的作答，答完后注意通讀檢查是否符合邏輯，語義順暢．
