科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學(xué)年湖南衡陽八中高二第一次聯(lián)考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

閱讀下面的文章，從每題后面所給的四個選項中選出正確的一項。

Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the Internet, or when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities.

Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. Some health care systems in the United States now offer Virtual Urgent Care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home.

Diana Rae is a nurse educator in the western state of Washington. She recently showed how Virtual Urgent Care works. She used an iPad tablet and skype — the video chat service.

Doctor Green has the patient describe her symptoms, then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is a silence infection. For medicine, he prescribes an antibiotic. He says about 3 out of 4 patients have health problems that can be treated like this —through Virtual Urgent Care, that means a video chat could replace a visit to the doctor's office.

The Franciscan Health System is based in Tacoma, Washington. Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call, that is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctor's office or an urgent care clinic.

After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says, “I would've paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else's germs.”

Franciscan has a deal with a company called Carena to add virtual urgent care by Skype or phone. Carena is one of several companies doing this kind of work around the country. But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with developments in telemedicine. The workers who provide virtual urgent care must be separately licensed in each state where the company does business. For now, that means Carena doctors can treat patients in Washington state and California for example, but not in neighboring Oregon or Idaho.

1.The second paragraph is mainly used to show ________.

A. why telemedicine becomes popular

B. the advantages of telemedicine

C. many factors contribute to telemedicine

D. what telemedicine is

2.Doctor Green decides that the problem is a silence infection ________.

A. through his observation of the patient

B. through a careful examination

C. by knowing what he wants her to do

D. by prescribing an antibiotic

3.The major health problems, in Doctor Green’s opinion, ________.

A. are tough to deal with

B. can be treated through a video chat

C. should result from work pressure

D. nearly cost little to recover

4.By mentioning what Diana Rae says, the author wants to show ________.

A. he finds it convenient to see a doctor by using a video chat

B. he sings high praise for this kind of treatment form

C. he must be tired of waiting too long in the hospital

D. it should be very unhealthy while staying in hospital

閱讀理解。

The traditional distinction between products that satisfy needs and those satisfy wants is no longer adequate to describe classes of products. In today’s prosperous societies, the distinction has become unclear because so many wants have been turned into needs．A writer, for instance, can work with paper and pencils. These are legal needs for the task．But the work can be done more quickly and efficiently with a word processor. Thus a computer is soon viewed as a need rather than a want.

In the field of marketing, consumer goods are classed according to the way in which they are purchased．The two main classes are convenience goods and shopping goods．Two lesser types are specialty goods and unsought (未被要求的) goods. It must be emphasized that all of these types are based on the way shoppers think about products, not on the nature of the products themselves. What is regarded as a convenience item in France(wine，for example)should be a specialty goods in the United States.

People do not spend a great deal of time shopping for such convenience items as groceries, newspapers, toothpaste, aspirin, and candy. The buying of convenience goods may be done routinely, as some families buy groceries once a week. Such regularly purchased items are called staples. Sometimes convenience products are bought without enough thinking; someone has a sudden desire for an ice cream sundae on a hot day. Or they may be purchased as emergency items.

Shopping goods are items for which customers search. They compare prices. quality, and styles, and may visit a number of stores before making a decision．Buying an automobile is often done this way.

Shopping goods fail into two classes：those that are recognized as basically the same and those that are regarded as different. Items that are looked upon as basically the same include such things as home appliances, television sets, and automobiles．Having decided on the model desired, the customer is primarily interested in getting the item at the most favorable price. Items regarded as essentially different include clothing, furniture, and dishes. Quality, style and fashion will either take precedence(優(yōu)先) over price, or they win not matter at all.

1.It can be learned from the first paragraph that ________.

A．a(chǎn) writer needs a word processor

B．needs and wants can’t be separated clearly

C．the way to distinguish the products is unimportant

D．a(chǎn) computer is a need rather than a want

2.The example of wine is used to illustrate that ________.

A．goods are classified differently in different counties

B．the type of a product is determined by its consumers

C．Frenchmen often drink but Americans sometimes do

D．one product may belong to many types

3.Staples are items that ________.

A．a(chǎn)re convenient to purchase

B．a(chǎn)re purchased without enough thinking

C．people “want but don’t need”

D．people are in constant need of

4.Shopping goods that are considered as basically the same are those that ________.

A．consumers don’t care where to buy them

B．consumers spend much time searching for

C．meet similar needs of the consumers

D．can be found in nearly every shop
