B．Anxiety.C．Workstress. D．Bloodclots.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的最后兩句可知，CT掃描檢查的結(jié)果顯示，Green的左肺又形成了血塊，如果不是及時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)的話，血塊會(huì)要了他的命。故選D。8．WhichstatementabouttheAppleWatchmayDaveAlbertagreewith?A．Itisnotaspowerfulaspublicized.B．Itisnotasthatspecialasexpected.C．Itisreallyahugesuccessinitsfield.D．Itisagooddeviceforahealthylifestyle.解析：選A推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中DaveAlbert所說的話可知，DaveAlbert認(rèn)為蘋果宣傳的那些故事與心臟沒有直接的聯(lián)系，用戶身體上有其他的癥狀，用戶并非最先通過蘋果公司的智能手表才發(fā)現(xiàn)其身體異常的。由此可推知，DaveAlbert認(rèn)為蘋果公司的智能手表并沒有他們宣傳的那樣有效。故選A。9．Whatmessageismainlyconveyedfromthepassage?A．Smartwatchesaresavinglives.B．Smartwatchesarebecomingmorecomplex.C．Smartwatchesarereplacingfitnesstrackers.D．Smartwatchesaredyingbecausethey'reworthless.解析：選B主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，本文主要通過列舉JamesT.Green的例子來論述智能手表能夠檢測人的心率，讓人們及時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)健康問題，甚至挽救人們的生命。主要表明了智能手表的功能越來越復(fù)雜化。故選B項(xiàng)。D(2019·鹽城質(zhì)檢)DoctorManettehadsuddenlydisappeared.Everythingwasdonetodiscoversometraceofhim,butinvain.Thelossofherhusbandcausedhiswifesuchpainthatshedecidedtobringupherlittledaughter,Lucie,inignoranceofherfather'sfate,andwhenintwoyearsshediedsheleftlittleLucieundertheguardianshipofMr.Lorry.Aftereighteenyears,strangenewsconcerningthedoctorhadjustcomefromParis.Mr.LorrytoldLucie,“Yourfatherhasbeenfound.Heisalive,greatlychanged,butalive.HehasbeentakentothehouseofaformerservantinParis,andwearegoingthere.”O(jiān)narrival,thebankerandLucieweretakentoanattic,whereahaggard(憔悴的),white-hairedmansatonalowbench,makingshoes.HewasshelteredbyamanbythenameofDefargewho,withhiswife,keptawineshopinthedistrictofSt.Antoine.CharlesDarnaywasofnoblebirth；buthisancestorshadformanyyearssocruellyoppressedtheFrenchpeasantrythatthenameofEvremondewashatedandlookeddownupon.Whollyunlikethemincharacter,thislastdescendantofhisracehadgivenuphisnameandestateandhadcometoEnglandasaprivategentleman,eagertobeginlifeanew.SydneyCartonwasayoungEnglishlawyer.TheysoonbecamefrequentvisitorsatthesmallhouseinSohoSquare,thehomeofDoctorManetteandhisdaughter.ThroughLucie'scareanddevotion,thedoctorhadalmostwhollyrecoveredfromtheeffectsofhislongimprisonment,anditwasonlyintimesofstrongexcitementthatanytraceofhispastinsanitycouldbedetected.ThesweetfaceofLucieManettesoonwontheheartsofboththeyoungmen,butitwasDarnaytowhomshegaveherlove.Theymarried.TheFrenchRevolutionhadactuallybegunandin1792Mr.LorryandCharlesDarnaylandedinParis,theformertoprotecttheFrenchbranchofTellson&Co.,andthelattertosaveanoldfamilyservant—Gabelle—whohadbeggedhishelp.NotuntiltheyhadsetfootinParisdidtheyrealizewhatacaldronoffury(暴怒)theyhadbeeninvolvedin.Mr.Lorry,onaccountofhisbusinessrelations,wasallowedhisfreedom,butDarnaywashurriedatoncetotheprisonofLaForce,theretoawaithistrial.ThereasongivenforthisoutragewasthenewlawforthearrestofallreturningFrenchemigrants,butthetruecausewasthathehadbeenrecognizedasCharlesEvremonde.DoctorManette,goingtoFrancewithLucie,gainedapromisethatDarnay'slifeshouldbespared.AtlastcametheterribleyearoftheReignofTerror.ThesympathywhichatfirsthadbeengiventoDoctorManettehadbecomeweakenedthroughtheinfluenceofthebloodthirstyMadameDefarge.Also,therehadbeenfoundintheruinsoftheBastilleapaperwhichcontainedDoctorManette'saccountofhisimprisonment,andpronouncingacurseupontheHouseofEvremondeandtheirdescendants,whowereresponsibleforhiseighteenyearsofmisery.CharlesDarnay'sfatewassealed.“Deathwithintwenty-fourhours.”ToSydneyCarton,whohadfollowedhisfriendstoParis,cameaninspiration.DidhenotpromiseLuciethathewoulddietosavealifesheloved？Hemanagedtogainadmi
