【題目】Car sickness is a common problem faced by many people. 【1】 The ears tell the brain that the body is moving, but the eyes say that the body isn’t moving. This leads to many symptoms of car sickness. Though there is no solution to this problem, there are some ways to make it less unpleasant.

Get fresh air. Some people may find fresh air can make car sickness less serious. 【2】 If symptoms remain, stop the car and get out to breathe in fresh air if possible. The air may help, and stopping the drive should help, too.

【3】 Often, car sickness is caused by movements outside the car. For this reason, you may feel better when you block your view. Simply closing your eyes may help, especially if you can fall asleep. You can also try sunglasses to achieve the same result.

Use ginger (姜) products. Some people benefit from ginger products to reduce car sickness. You can try ginger chews, ginger cookies, and many other ginger products. 【4】

Try pressure. Putting pressure on a particular point of your body may help treat the symptoms of car sickness. Specifically, Nei Guan—a point on the underside of the wrist—may be pressed to help with an upset stomach. 【5】 Then I believe you will feel better.

A. Fall asleep as soon as possible.

B. Try to stop yourself from seeing outside.

C. It is caused by a disagreement between eyes and ears.

D. Simply opening a window may help reduce your symptoms.

E. Pressing your fingertips there would offer relief in about 10 seconds.

G. Some data has shown that eating something dry may help reduce the symptoms.

【5】E

【解析】這是一篇說明文。暈車是許多人面臨的共同問題。本文講述了可以減緩暈車帶來的不適的幾種方法。

【1】根據(jù)空格后的The ears tell the brain that the body is moving, but the eyes say that the body isn’t moving.可知，耳朵告訴人們身體在動，而眼睛告訴人們身體沒有動，這樣就會造成暈車，是由于耳眼不一致造成的。故選C。

【2】根據(jù)空格前的Get fresh air. Some people may find fresh air can make car sickness less serious.可知，呼吸新鮮空氣可以減少暈車帶來的不適，可以推斷出下面是建議打開車窗減少暈車癥狀。故選D。

【3】根據(jù)空格后的Often, car sickness is caused by movements outside the car.可知，暈車多數(shù)是由于看窗外移動的樹木房屋造成的，因此句首建議不要看窗外。故選B。

【4】根據(jù)段首的Use ginger (姜) products.可知，本段建議暈車的人坐車時(shí)備上姜片或姜汁餅干等產(chǎn)品。故選F。

【5】根據(jù)空格前的Nei Guan—a point on the underside of the wrist—may be pressed to help with an upset stomach.可知，這里建議我們按壓手腕上的穴位內(nèi)關(guān)，10秒鐘后暈車癥狀就有緩解。故選E。

【題目】閱讀理解
Sunscreens (防曬霜) can offer protection from two types of ultraviolet (UV) rays (紫外線): UVB, which according to the Skin Cancer Foundation, are the chief cause of sunburn and play a key role in the development of skin cancer, and UVA, which get through the skin more deeply and are largely responsible for skin aging and wrinkling, as well as skin cancer risk. The SPF (防曬指數(shù)) measurement on sunscreens refers to the UVB protection level — and the number may not mean what you think it does. SPF 15 doesn't protect you from 15% of UVB rays, just as SPF 100 doesn't protect you from 100% of the rays. In fact, as you get into the higher numbered SPF sunscreens (think: 50 and above), the difference in UVB protection is actually pretty small.
Theoretically, though the increase in UVB protection with a super-high SPF sunscreen may be not worth considering, it may help, and certainly can't hurt, to use it — that is, as long as you do so correctly. “The only downside is whether you're giving yourself a sense of false security,” Dr. Gohara says.
Indeed, as Dr. Wang also pointed out, when people choose increased SPFs, they may actually feel so protected by the product that they finally ignore proper sun protection. “When people use really high SPF products, they tend not to reuse, they tend to stay out in the sun much longer, and they don't use other protective measures such as clothing and hats,” he says. Regardless of any increase in protection that a high SPF may or may not offer, one thing is certain: It doesn't give your body a free pass from sunburns, aging, or cancers, and it doesn't protect you from those things for any greater length of time than the lower SPF options. Both Dr. Wang and Dr. Gohara emphasized that, no matter what the SPF is, it's important to reapply your sunscreen every two hours.
（1）What rays can cause skin cancer according to the text?
A.UV
B.UVA
C.UVB
D.UVA&UVB
（2）What can we know about SPF from Paragraph 1?
A.It tells us the UVB protection level.
B.It's better to use higher numbered SPF.
C.SPA100 means preventing 100% rays.
D.There's a big difference between SPF 50 and above.
（3）Which of the following can replace the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 2?
A.protection
B.disadvantage
C.result
D.method
（4）Why are we advised to reapply our sunscreen every two hours?
A.We choose too low SPF products.
B.The higher SPF can make us stay outside longer.
C.Clothing and hats are not enough for sun protection.
D.It can't completely protect us from aging, sunburns or cancers.
