(新高考)高考英語(yǔ)二輪復(fù)習(xí)課時(shí)精煉考向29 閱讀理解之時(shí)事熱點(diǎn)(解析版)

考向29閱讀理解之時(shí)事熱點(diǎn)近年來(lái)，高考英語(yǔ)閱讀理解題常有時(shí)事新聞報(bào)道類的文章,其內(nèi)容與人們的生活息息相關(guān),如戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、環(huán)境、人口、能源等。【基礎(chǔ)要素】1.新聞六要素：時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、人物、事件的起因、經(jīng)過(guò)、結(jié)果。2.新聞的結(jié)構(gòu)：標(biāo)題、導(dǎo)語(yǔ)、主體、背景、結(jié)語(yǔ)。標(biāo)題、導(dǎo)語(yǔ)、主體是消息必不可少的，背景和結(jié)語(yǔ)有時(shí)則蘊(yùn)涵在主體里面，有時(shí)省略?！菊Z(yǔ)篇特征】1.第一段簡(jiǎn)要概述新聞或時(shí)事的內(nèi)容提要,接著再詳述具體內(nèi)容;2.新聞或消息類文章在開(kāi)頭通常用大寫(xiě)字體標(biāo)明其出處或來(lái)源,并用破折號(hào)或冒號(hào)引出內(nèi)容提要?！緶y(cè)試角度】1.測(cè)試文章的主旨大意或段落大意;2.測(cè)試考生對(duì)于某個(gè)具體信息的理解與把握,即細(xì)節(jié)理解;3.測(cè)試所讀材料的來(lái)源或出處;4.測(cè)試考生利用所給信息進(jìn)行推理的能力?！窘忸}方法】1.速讀短文,特別是開(kāi)頭的幾句,抓住五個(gè)W,即:事件發(fā)生的時(shí)間(when)、地點(diǎn)(where)、人物(who)、原因(why)、過(guò)程和結(jié)果(how),把握新聞的主要內(nèi)容;2.細(xì)讀所給的試題,初選相應(yīng)的答案;3.細(xì)讀短文,并確定相應(yīng)的答案。4.信息的增加或減少是閱讀理解題中設(shè)計(jì)干擾項(xiàng)的常見(jiàn)手法,因此,在確定答案時(shí),應(yīng)特別注意識(shí)別。【典例示例】（2021年6月，浙江卷閱讀理解C篇）Ifyouevergettheimpressionthatyourdogcan"tell"whetheryoulookcontentorannoyed,youmaybeontosomething.Dogsmayindeedbeabletodistinguishbetweenhappyandangryhumanfaces,accordingtoanewstudyResearcherstrainedagroupof11dogstodistinguishbetweenimages（圖像）ofthesamepersonmakingeitherahappyoranangryface.Duringthetrainingstage,eachdogwasshownonlytheupperhalforthelowerhalfoftheperson'sface.Theresearchersthentestedthedogs'abilitytodistinguishbetweenhumanfacialexpressionsbyshowingthemtheotherhalfoftheperson'sfaceonimagestotallydifferentfromtheonesusedintraining.Theresearchersfoundthatthedogswereabletopicktheangryorhappyfacebytouchingapictureofitwiththeirnosesmoreoftenthanonewouldexpectbyrandomchance.Thestudyshowedtheanimalshadfiguredouthowtoapplywhattheylearnedabouthumanfacesduringtrainingtonewfacesinthetestingstage."Wecanruleoutthatthedogesimplydistinguishbetweenthepicturesbasedonasimplecue,suchasthesightofteeth,"saidstudyauthorCorsinMuller."Instead,ourresultssuggestthatthesuccessfuldogsrealizedthatasmilingmouthmeansthesamethingassmilingeyes,andthesameruleappliestoanangrymouthhavingthesamemeaningasangryeyes.”"Withourstudy,wethinkwecannowconfidentlyconcludethatatleastsomedogscandistinguishhumanfacialexpressions,"MullertoldLineScience.Atthispoint,itisnotclearwhydogsseemtobeequippedwiththeabilitytorecognizedifferentfacialexpressionsinhumans."Tous,themostlikelyexplanationappearstobethatthebasisliesintheirlivingwithhumans,whichgivesthemalotofexposuretohumanfacialexpressions,"andthisexposurehasprovidedthemwithmanychancestolearntodistinguishbetweenthem,Mullersaid.28.Thenewstudyfocusedonwhetherdogscan_________.A.distinguishshapesB.makesenseofhumanfacesC.feelhappyorangryD.communicatewitheachother29.Whatcanwelearnaboutthestudyfromparagraph2?A.Researcherstestedthedogsinrandomorder.B.Diversemethodswereadoptedduringtraining.C.PicturesusedinthetwostagesweredifferentD.Thedogswerephotographedbeforethelest.30.Whatisthelastparagraphmainlyabout?A.Asuggestionforfuturestudies.B.Apossiblereasonforthestudyfindings.C.AmajorlimitationofthestudyD.Anexplanationoftheresearchmethod.語(yǔ)篇解讀主題語(yǔ)境人與自然---人與動(dòng)物語(yǔ)篇大意本文是一篇科普類文章，文章主要介紹了一項(xiàng)有關(guān)狗的研究，實(shí)驗(yàn)研究表明，狗能夠識(shí)別人類的表情是高興還是憤怒。背景知識(shí)科學(xué)家已經(jīng)證實(shí)，鳥(niǎo)類、魚(yú)和青蛙等許多動(dòng)物都存在這種大腦左右半球的情感分工：左半球負(fù)責(zé)積極的感情和行為，而右半球則相反。人類也不例外，只不過(guò)人類的情感要更豐富：愛(ài)、依賴、安全感、平靜等是積極的情感，而逃避、恐懼和抑郁等則是消極的情感。由于左右大腦控制的身體部分相反，這種不對(duì)稱性也表現(xiàn)在身體相反的一側(cè)。比如，鳥(niǎo)類用右眼尋找食物（積極行為），而左眼留心“敵人”（消極行為）；人類的右側(cè)面部肌肉用于表達(dá)高興，而左側(cè)的則反映憂愁。重點(diǎn)單詞distinguish識(shí)別，區(qū)分；cuen.暗示:提示;信號(hào)；confidently有信心地:自信地；exposure暴露高級(jí)短語(yǔ)beontosomething有所發(fā)現(xiàn)；figureout理解:弄明白；apply...to...把......運(yùn)用于......；ruleout排除;不考慮；baseon以......為根據(jù)；beequippedwith配備著......；裝備著.......長(zhǎng)難句分析原文：“Tous,themostlikelyexplanationappearstobethatthebasisliesintheirlivingwithhumans,whichgivesthemalotofexposuretohumanfacialexpressions,"andthisexposurehasprovidedthemwithmanychancestolearntodistinguishbetweenthem,Mullersaid.分析：本句為主從復(fù)合句。appearstobe后面是that引導(dǎo)的表語(yǔ)從句，該表語(yǔ)從句中含有一個(gè)which引導(dǎo)的非限定性定語(yǔ)從句。答案與解析：28.B主旨大意題。根據(jù)短文首段的第二句“Dogsmayinxdeedbeabletodistinguishbetweenhappyandangryhumanfaces,accordingtoanewstudy”可知，一項(xiàng)新的研究表明,狗可能真地可以辨別人的表情是高興還是憤怒，緊接著后文又詳細(xì)介紹了研究過(guò)程和結(jié)論，即狗能夠識(shí)別人的表情，且倒數(shù)第二段的“Withourstudy,wethinkwecannowconfidentlyconcludethatatleastsomedogscandistinguishhumanfaciallexpressions”一句明確給出了結(jié)論。故選B項(xiàng)。29.C細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Theresearchersthentestedthedogs"abilitytodistinguishbetweenhumanfacialexpressionsbyshowingthemtheotherhalfoftheperson'sfaceorimagestotallydifferentfromtheonesusedintraining”可知，研究者給狗展示了與以往訓(xùn)練完全不同的人臉(或圖片)的另一部分。故選C項(xiàng)。30.B主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“...whydogsseemtobeequippedwiththeabilitytorecognizedifferentfacialexpressionsinhurmans”可知最后一段解釋了為什么看起來(lái)狗具備識(shí)別人類表情的能力，也就是為什么會(huì)有這樣的實(shí)驗(yàn)研究結(jié)論。故選B項(xiàng)?！局R(shí)拓展】英語(yǔ)新聞報(bào)道的文體特點(diǎn)

新聞的首要職能是報(bào)道新聞時(shí)事。通常人們所說(shuō)的新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)(JournalisticEnglish,NewsEnglish)主要是指新聞報(bào)道文章中所使用的英語(yǔ),是具有新聞特性、適合新聞報(bào)道要求、適應(yīng)新聞信息傳播需要的語(yǔ)言。侯維瑞認(rèn)為,新聞報(bào)道的職能是傳播信息,即迅速及時(shí)地報(bào)道時(shí)事新聞,以最快的速度正確地報(bào)道國(guó)內(nèi)外發(fā)生的重大事件。真實(shí)性、客觀性和及時(shí)性是新聞報(bào)道的要?jiǎng)t。反映在文體風(fēng)格方面,新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)必須正確、簡(jiǎn)潔、明了,在有限的撰稿時(shí)間和刊登篇幅內(nèi)取得言簡(jiǎn)意賅的效果。新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)因其自身的特點(diǎn)和傳播功能,詞匯、時(shí)態(tài)、語(yǔ)態(tài)及修辭等的運(yùn)用都有其自成一家的特點(diǎn)。1.新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)的詞匯特點(diǎn)

新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)作為信息傳播媒介,需將信息濃縮于一個(gè)有限的空間(版面),其目的是便于讀者抓住主要內(nèi)容。因此,新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)詞匯的特殊性表現(xiàn)在:詞匯簡(jiǎn)單而具體,行文流暢而不會(huì)佶屈聱牙。新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)常常通過(guò)使用大寫(xiě)字體、戲劇性標(biāo)題、簡(jiǎn)短的段落、簡(jiǎn)潔的句子來(lái)增強(qiáng)新聞的趣味性。此外,新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)還是新詞的滋生地,一些新詞往往是經(jīng)過(guò)媒體的普及而逐步為公眾所接受。

頻繁使用新詞。文字是現(xiàn)實(shí)生活的反映,而現(xiàn)實(shí)生活總是在日新月異地變化。因此,在新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)中,時(shí)常會(huì)出現(xiàn)一些在原有意義上延伸出新義的詞,且已經(jīng)成為頗有特色的詞匯。隨著這些詞的廣泛運(yùn)用,它們也逐步滲透到日常生活用語(yǔ)之中。例如:

Therapid-growingdeathtollofAIDSvictimshasposedawidespreadpanicacrosstheStatesfromgaybarsinthewestcostofCaliforniatotheFunCity'sred-lightdistricts.艾滋病患者死亡人數(shù)激增造成普遍恐慌?？只挪叭珖?guó),從西海岸加州的同性戀酒吧到逍遙城紐約的紅燈區(qū)。

gay的原義為“快樂(lè)的”,但在新聞報(bào)道中已轉(zhuǎn)義為“同性戀的”。此處的“gaybars”為“同性戀酒吧”而不是“快樂(lè)酒吧”。

除延伸出新義之外,新詞還可以通過(guò)加上前后綴的方式構(gòu)成。其中較為常見(jiàn)的前綴有anti-、auto-、electro-、inter-、intra-、non-等。用派生法構(gòu)成的新詞一方面可以補(bǔ)足原有英語(yǔ)詞匯中缺少的詞義,另一方面又能使文筆簡(jiǎn)練有力。

隨著人類思維的進(jìn)步和科技的飛速發(fā)展,根據(jù)資料統(tǒng)計(jì),英語(yǔ)中每年會(huì)出現(xiàn)1500個(gè)左右新詞。而這些新詞首次亮相的舞臺(tái)往往是報(bào)紙、雜志等新聞媒體。不少語(yǔ)言學(xué)家認(rèn)為,現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)詞匯的變化在很大程度上是與新聞?wù)Z言的影響有關(guān)。不少新詞經(jīng)新聞媒體登場(chǎng)后,被人仿效,逐漸得以普及,為公眾所接受。

廣泛使用短詞及縮略語(yǔ)。由于新聞欄目篇幅狹窄,出于排版的需要和對(duì)聽(tīng)眾和觀眾的理解速度和能力的考慮,記者和編輯喜歡使用字型短小的單音節(jié)詞和縮略詞以節(jié)省刊頭空間。美國(guó)新聞學(xué)家麥克道格爾在其《解釋性報(bào)道》一書(shū)中提出要多用簡(jiǎn)單詞。他認(rèn)為,在表示同一個(gè)意思時(shí)about比withreferenceto好、although比despitethefactthat好。在新聞寫(xiě)作中,很少有人會(huì)把do說(shuō)成effectuate、把end寫(xiě)作terminate;他們寧愿用ban而不用prohibition、用today來(lái)代替inthisdayandage。

再者,新聞報(bào)道受到時(shí)間和傳遞量的限制,不得不在寫(xiě)作上力求簡(jiǎn)明扼要,用字精練通俗,句法一目了然。使用詞義寬泛、形體短小的詞不僅可以美化版面,而且可使文字簡(jiǎn)練。路國(guó)強(qiáng)先生將英語(yǔ)縮略詞分為兩種。

一種為縮略詞(acronyms),由一詞組中的各主要詞的第一字母縮合而成。例如:BL'Sfamilycars,theItalandAllegro,areconsideredbymanymotoriststobeunreliableandold-fashionedinstyling,accordingtoasurveypublishedyesterday.據(jù)昨天公布的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查,許多駕駛汽車的人認(rèn)為:英國(guó)利蘭汽車公司的家庭汽車——一伊大爾牌和阿勒格羅牌性能不可靠而且款式陳舊。(句中BL'S是BritishLeyland's的縮寫(xiě)詞)。

另一種為縮短詞(shortenedwords),即通過(guò)截短法(clipping)或縮短法(shortening)構(gòu)成的詞。如:brunch(breakfast+lunch)早午餐;telecast(television+broadcast)廣播電視。一則交通事故報(bào)道說(shuō):Moreandmoretrafficexpertssuspectthat“autocide”isanimportantcauseoftrafficdeaths.(Time,Jan.21,1997)這里的autocide是automobilesuicide的節(jié)縮詞。

由此可見(jiàn),新聞?wù)Z言應(yīng)使用簡(jiǎn)潔通俗的大眾化語(yǔ)言。

借用各類詞匯。新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)的一大特點(diǎn)是常借用地名、人名、物名等專有名詞來(lái)表示某一個(gè)意思。如WhiteHouse指美國(guó)政府,JamesBond(影片《007》中的超級(jí)間諜)被用來(lái)指無(wú)往不勝的諜報(bào)人員或其他類型的智慧人物。《HighNoon》是20世紀(jì)60年代流行于美國(guó)的西部影片,現(xiàn)在象征毀滅性遭遇,也可用來(lái)比喻人們對(duì)罪惡現(xiàn)象的責(zé)任感。brainbust原為由高級(jí)專家和大學(xué)教授組成的幫助富蘭克林·羅斯?？偨y(tǒng)制定新政的智囊團(tuán),現(xiàn)指各種部門特聘的參與決策的智囊人物,有時(shí)也指才華出眾的學(xué)生。

除此之外,在新聞標(biāo)題和緊接著的新聞內(nèi)容里,常常使用或借用形象的詞匯、日常用語(yǔ)以及口語(yǔ)、俚語(yǔ)等,以增加新聞報(bào)道的形象性、親切感和吸引力。例如:

TheSecondWorldWarwasanotherhugeVolkermanderung,itwasaccompaniedbyavastdislocationofpeople.第二次世界大戰(zhàn)又是一次大規(guī)模的“民族遷移”,隨之而來(lái)的是千千萬(wàn)萬(wàn)人的流離失所。Volkermanderung是德語(yǔ),意為“民族遷移”。2.新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)的語(yǔ)法特點(diǎn)

用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)表達(dá)過(guò)去發(fā)生的事情。通常情況下,新聞報(bào)道所報(bào)道的消息多為已發(fā)生的事實(shí),按照英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法,動(dòng)詞應(yīng)使用過(guò)去時(shí)。但新聞是新近發(fā)生的事實(shí),為增強(qiáng)新聞報(bào)道的新鮮感(freshness)、現(xiàn)實(shí)感(reality)和直接感(immediacy),在新聞報(bào)道中一般不用過(guò)去時(shí)、過(guò)去完成時(shí)等,而采用現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài),從形式上可以使讀者在閱讀時(shí)如置身于新聞事件之中。例如:CarterPicksNewEnvoytoMexico卡特選出派往墨西哥的新特使。

用不定式表達(dá)將來(lái)發(fā)生的事情。英文新聞標(biāo)題中表示將來(lái)時(shí)的形式除一般將來(lái)時(shí)“will+動(dòng)詞原形”外,更多的還是采用“聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞be+動(dòng)詞不定式”結(jié)構(gòu),其中聯(lián)系動(dòng)詞be通常省略,以節(jié)省標(biāo)題字?jǐn)?shù)。例如:PopetoVisitJapaninFebruary=PopeistovisitJapaninFebruary教皇擬于二月訪日。

用現(xiàn)在分詞表達(dá)正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作或正在發(fā)生的事態(tài)。對(duì)于正在發(fā)生的事態(tài)或動(dòng)作,英文新聞標(biāo)題按正常英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法規(guī)則處理,采用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)“be+現(xiàn)在分詞”的形式,但“be”通常省略。因此,現(xiàn)在分詞便在新聞標(biāo)題中直接表示正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作或正在發(fā)展的事態(tài)。例如:BillGatesWorkingonaNewBook=BillGatesisworkingonanewbook比爾·蓋茨撰寫(xiě)新書(shū)科技先鋒展望未來(lái)。3.新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)的句法特點(diǎn)

時(shí)態(tài)呼應(yīng)靈活。新聞報(bào)道中動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)簡(jiǎn)化,有時(shí)不受時(shí)態(tài)應(yīng)保持一致或呼應(yīng)的語(yǔ)法規(guī)定,有較大的靈活性。例如:

ButCartertoldreporters,theUnitedStateswillcontinuetherestraintsitimposedonIranwhenthehostagesweretaken150daysago……Hemadeitclear,however,thatthefreezingofIranianassetsandmonitoringofIranianstudentsinthiscountrywouldcontinue.Wewillcontinuetomonitorthesituationveryclosely,“Cartersaid”.

句中既有按傳統(tǒng)語(yǔ)法規(guī)則呼應(yīng)的“made……wouldcontinue”,也有從實(shí)際出發(fā)靈活運(yùn)用的“told……willcontinue”。

句式多樣彈性化。新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)中的句式富于變化。在新聞報(bào)道中有倒裝句、省略句,有借助副詞、動(dòng)詞變化的句式。例如:

SaysDaryReadingofGowrie:“Itmakesyoumad,Wearegoodatwhatwedo,butwestillcan'tmakealiving.”

高瑞的達(dá)里·雷丁說(shuō):“這使你發(fā)瘋。我們有本領(lǐng)干好我們的工作,但仍不能謀生。”

句中的謂語(yǔ)says位于句首,這種句式是新聞報(bào)道文章所特有的。

被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的使用。當(dāng)讀者在廣泛接觸英語(yǔ)新聞之后,就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)新聞標(biāo)題使用主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的頻率遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。這是因?yàn)閺男揶o學(xué)角度而言,主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)比被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)更加生動(dòng)且富有感染力,所表達(dá)的意義更為直接,或更具有說(shuō)服力,使讀者感到真實(shí)可信,讀來(lái)朗朗上口。但新聞報(bào)道中有時(shí)動(dòng)作的接受者往往是讀者關(guān)心的中心,比如有關(guān)災(zāi)難、戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、事故、騷亂等報(bào)道中,讀者更關(guān)心的是傷亡人員與人數(shù)。因此,新聞?dòng)⒄Z(yǔ)有時(shí)為突出動(dòng)作的承受者通常采用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),目的在于抓住讀者的注意力。我們來(lái)看下面的例子:

A:“500ReportedKilledinS.KoreanBuildingCollapse”

B:“Buildingcollapseclaims500livesinS.Korea”

這是一則報(bào)道韓國(guó)某百貨大樓倒塌致使500人喪生的一條新聞。作為新聞報(bào)道,A或B兩條標(biāo)題都起到了提示與濃縮內(nèi)容的作用。但在報(bào)道中死亡人數(shù)是該新聞一個(gè)非常重要的內(nèi)容。前句為被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),以數(shù)詞開(kāi)始,突出了死亡人數(shù),使它處于醒目的位置,起到了吸引讀者的作用,從而激發(fā)起讀者的閱讀興趣和欲望,以探究其事故緣由。

講究修辭效果。新聞除了注重事實(shí)真實(shí)、表達(dá)清晰外,還講究語(yǔ)言的美感和韻味。因此,常常借助于比喻、夸張、雙關(guān)語(yǔ)、成語(yǔ)、押韻等修辭手法來(lái)增加新聞的可讀性和吸引力。例如:

AllWork,LowPlayMakeNursesGoAway工作辛苦,工資低廉,許多護(hù)士離職而去。(此句源自成語(yǔ)“AllworkandnoplaymakeJohnadullboy”。)

DareDevilwhodared膽大包天的人(通過(guò)押頭韻和使用疊詞來(lái)增加語(yǔ)言的節(jié)奏感,起到強(qiáng)調(diào)作用)。

AretheDemocratDinosaurs?民主黨成了恐龍嗎?

這一標(biāo)題運(yùn)用比喻手法,把民主黨比作恐龍(一種生活在中生代時(shí)期龐大的食肉或食草爬行類動(dòng)物,現(xiàn)已絕種),寓意深刻。此文章寫(xiě)于共和黨總統(tǒng)候選人羅納德·里根在1980年獲選總統(tǒng)之后,諷刺民主黨在富蘭克林·羅斯福和約翰·肯尼迪總統(tǒng)的光榮歷史之后,氣勢(shì)變得十分微弱,令人可憐。

Wherethere'ssmoke,there'scash(TheEconomist,1996)有煙才有錢

這一標(biāo)題中運(yùn)用了模仿(parody)的修辭手法,套用了英語(yǔ)諺語(yǔ)“Wherethere'sreek,there'sheat”(無(wú)風(fēng)不起浪,有果必有因),借以諷刺美國(guó)的利益集團(tuán)政治。香煙在美國(guó)幾乎人人喊打,卻總打不倒,因?yàn)檎蛡冃枰獰煵萆虃兊恼尉杩?而后又利用手中的權(quán)力照顧煙草商們的利益?！緳z測(cè)訓(xùn)練】1TheEuropeancommissionhasunveileda"digitalgreencertificate"thatcouldallowEUcitizenswhohavebeenvaccinated,testednegativeorrecoveredfromCovid-19totravelmorefreelythissummer.TheplanwouldalsoallowsouthernstatessuchasSpain,GreeceandPortugal,whoseeconomiesaremostreliantontourism,tomakebilateralarrangementswithnon-EUmembers–includingBritain–providingthedealsareapprovedbythecommission."Weaimtohelpmemberstatesreinstatethefreedomofmovementinasafe,responsibleandtrustedmanner,”theEuropeancommissionpresident,UrsulavonderLeyen,saidastheschemewasunveiledonWednesday,whichwasactivelypromotedbysouthernEuropeanholidaydestinationswhoseeconomieshavebeendevastatedbythepandemic.Thedigitaldocument,containingaQRcodeandcarriedonamobilephone,hasdeliberatelynotbeencalleda"vaccinepassport"becausesomememberstatesfeltthatwoulddiscriminateagainstthosewhohadnotyetbeenofferedashot.Thecertificateis"notapassport...butadocumentthatwilldescribethemedicalsituationoftheindividualswhoholdit",thecommissionspokesman,EricMamer,said.Thecertificate,shouldmeantravellerswillnotneedtoquarantine(檢疫,隔離)wouldbeavailabletoallcitizenswhocanprovideevidencethattheyhaveeitherbeenvaccinatedagainstCovid-19,haverecentlytestednegative,orhaveacquiredantibodiesafterrecoveringfromthevirus.TheEUaimstovaccinatethree-quartersofitsadultpopulationbytheendofsummerandofficialsremainhopefulthatifnationaldeliveryspeedsup,manyrestrictionscouldbeliftedintimefortheholidays.1.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“reinstate”inparagraph2referto?A.Recover.
