Now, U.S. researchers have identified a new way to treat people infected with tuberculosis (肺结核)before they get sick.
Tuberculosis is one of the world's most 1 health threats. The World Health Organization says tuberculosis kills nearly two million people each year. Another two billion are 2 : they are infected, but don't have symptoms of the disease. Those at highest risk can take medicine, but Vanderbilt University researcher Timothy Sterling says not everyone 3 with the treatment, which is a daily dose of isoniazid(异烟肼，抗结核药)for nine months. So although the medication is highly effective if people take all of their medication, many people do not take all their medication and therefore the effectiveness of the treatment plan is 4 . As a(n) 5 , Sterling and his colleagues 6 isoniazid with another drug, rifapentine (利福喷汀).The combination was taken weekly, not daily, for just three months. And the results of this study showed that the new treatment plan ---- the three months of isoniazid and rifapentine---- was as effective as the nine–month isoniazid treatment plan. 7 , the short-course, three-month treatment plan had higher treatment completion rates and was also well 8 .
There was some other difference. The two-drug, combination treatment was administered as directly 9 therapy. That means the patients took their medicine in the presence of a health care worker, to ensure that they followed the treatment plan. This was a large study, involving 7,500 participants in North America, Spain, and Brazil. Sterling 10 that most of the people in this study were HIV-negative. The results might be 11 for HIV-positive people. A recent study in South Africa indicated that the combination therapy works well in people infected with HIV as well as tuberculosis, but the study was too small to be 12 .
Timothy Sterling's research, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, has been 13 by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the CDC. The government health agency recommends the 12-dose weekly combination treatment as an equal alternative to the 270–dose daily treatment plan that has been the 14 therapy. But because of possible 15 issues, the CDC still recommends the daily treatment plan for HIV–positive patients who are taking antiretroviral drugs or women who are pregnant. Also because of a lack of data, the CDC says children under age 12 should stay with the nine-month daily treatment.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还钱包。作者深受感动。
（1）考查形容词。A：accessible“可以获得的，可以进入的”；B：hidden“隐藏的”；C：unknown“未知的，不知道的”；D：convenient “方便的，便利的”。根据上文“fear seized me. My wallet was gone.”可知，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，而汽车正在开往某个作者未知的地方，这使得找回钱包的希望渺茫，因此作者心生恐惧。故选C。
（2）考查形容词。A：face-saving“ 保全体面的；顾全面子的”；B：brain-washing“的”；C：eye-catching“引人注目的，耀眼的”；D：heart-stopping “令人心跳停止的，惊心动魄的”。根据上文“fear seized me”可以推知，作者在发现丢了钱包之后的第一感觉是“害怕”。之后，作者开始在内心计算找回钱包里的那些东西所需要的时间和钱数。故该空应和fear表达的意思相近，故选D。
（3）考查名词。A：parts“部分，角色，作用，零件”；B：contents“内容，内含物”；C：details“细节”；D：ingredients“ 原料，要素，组成部分” 。根据下文“the credit cards， the driver's license, the cash”，这些都是钱包里装的东西。故选B。
（4）考查动词。A：ignored“忽视”；B：answered“回答，答复，回应”；C：examined“检查”；D：interrupted “打断”。两小时后有人敲门，丈夫去应门。故选B。
（5）考查动词。A：missing“丢失，迷失”；B：returned“归还”；C：remaining“保留”；D：abandoned“遗弃”。 根据下文可知，那位女士捡到了作者的钱包，她拾金不昧，将钱包完璧归赵。由此可以推知，该处指“钱包里的钱一分也没有丢失”。故选A。
（6）考查副词。A：still“一直，仍然”；B：ever“曾经”；C：yet“但是”；D：even“甚至”。 作者甚至还没有来得及到门口感谢那位女士，她就离开了。故选D。
（7）考查动词。A：selected“精选，挑选”；B：appointed“委派，任命”；C：identified“确认，认出，识别”；D：defined“下定义”。 在网上分享了这个故事之后，作者收到了某个人的来信，这个人确认了那位女士是Erin Smith。故选C。
（8）考查名词。A：delay“延误，耽搁”；B；alarm“警报”；C：regret“后悔，遗憾”；D：invitation“邀请”。 找到了那位拾金不昧的女士，作者当然要毫不耽搁地打电话去感谢对方。故选A。
（9）考查动词。A：moved“移动”；B：placed“放置”；C：opened“打开”；D：spotted “发现，认出”。作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin是在一个座位上发现了它。故选D。
（10）考查动词。A：disagreed“不同意”；B：complained“抱怨”；C：calculated“估算，估计，预料”；D：recommended“推荐”。 根据下文的“a bitterly cold night”可知，这件事发生在一个寒冷的晚上。同时，Erin又不认识作者。由此推知，该句应指：Erin估计去一个陌生人的家是一个冒险的举动。故选C。
（11）考查形容词。A：selfless“无私的”；B：risky“冒险的”；C：slow“缓慢的”；D：personal“个人的”。 根据下文中的转折词but可知，该句和“she decided to take the chance”她决定冒险，是转折关系。那么该句应指去一个陌生人家是一个冒险的举动。故选B。
（12）考查名词。A：site“地点，位置”；B：direction“方向，指导”；C：situation“形势，情况”；D：atmosphere “气氛，氛围”。该句叙述的是Erin当时的想法：“如果我处在那种情况下（指丢了钱包这种情形），我希望有个人努力地找到我”。故选C。
（13）考查名词。A：crisis“危机”；B：danger“危险”；C：threat“威胁”；D：failure “失败”。作者丢了钱包，对于作者来说，这是一个危难时刻。故选A。
（14）考查动词短语。A：got rid of“除掉”；B：made use of“利用”；C：had control of“控制”；D：took possession of “拥有，占有”。Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在归还作者之前，钱包在Erin的手里，故选D。
（15）考查宾语从句。Erin把作者的驾照图片发到一个论坛里，想看看是否有人认识作者。该空表示“是否”，故选A。
（16）考查动词。A：recalled“回忆”；B：exchanged“交流”；C：repeated“重复”；D：whispered “低语”。根据后面的转折词but可知，该句和下文“but they wanted to help.”是转折关系，由此推知，该句指：除了闲聊，作者和那两位妈妈从来没有说过话，即：从未和她们交换过词语。故选B。
（17）考查动词。A：encounter“偶遇，遇到，邂逅”；B：follow“跟随，遵循”；C：consult“咨询”；D：accompany “陪伴”。作者曾经读到这样的说法：人们比以往更加四分五裂，即：人们不像以前那样团结，不像以前那样互相帮助了。但是，作者遇到的这些人的行为方式不是那样的。上文中提到的Erin，two moms都是作者遇到的人。故选A。
（18）考查动词短语。A：Going away“走开”；B：Turning around“转身”；C：Looking back“回顾，追忆”；D：Coming along“一起前往”。 回顾发生的这件事，作者感到很幸运：有人想帮助一个陌生人。故选C。
（19）考查介词。根据倒数第二段中的“people are more divided”可以推知，一般人在捡到别人的钱包后，都不会像Erin那样亲自归还失主。因此该句指：Erin的所作所为远远超越了其他人的行为。该空表示“超过，超越”，故选D。
（20）考查形容词。A：longing“渴望的”；B：enthusiastic“热情的”；C：concerned“关心的”；D：grateful “感激的”。Erin在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还作者的钱包，作者对此非常感激。故选D。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者在一个加油站加油时,被服务员说脸色发黄,由此一天都担心自己的健康,而第二次去时发现是由于墙壁反光造成的。最终作者联想到了生活也是如此,采用积极的态度面对人生,就会有好的事情发生。
（1）考查形容词。great”美妙的,好极了的“;excited”兴奋的,激动的“;sick”生病的“;uncomfortable”不舒服的“。根据"It was a beautiful day."可知,作者认为这一天非常美好,感觉很好。故选A。
（2）考查形容词。considerate”体贴的,考虑周全的“;thoughtful”体贴的“;strange”奇怪的“;funny”有趣的“。作者去加油,结果服务员问他：你感觉怎么样？这个问题显然不符合当时的情境,因此这个问题似乎很奇怪。故选C。
（3）考查形容词。happy”高兴的“;comfortable”舒服的“;satisfied”满意的“; well”好的“。作者告诉服务员自己感觉很好。而他的回答是"you don't look"。由此可知,他应该是不同意作者的看法,他认为作者看上去不好。故选D 。
（4）考查形容词。grey”灰色的“;yellow”黄色的“;black”黑色的“;red”红色的“。根据下文"The place had recently been painted a bright yellow, and the light reflecting off the walls made everyone inside 11 as though they were sick"可知,加油站粉刷成了黄色,墙上反射出来的光线使里面的每个人看起来好像都病了一样。由此可知,服务员认为作者的脸色是黄色的,看上去好像生病了。故选B。
（5）考查形容词。angry”生气的“;uneasy”心神不安的“;painful”痛苦的“; unbelievable”令人难以置信的“。服务员说作者的脸色发黄,好像生病了一样。因此作者离开时应该是感到心神不安。故选B。
（6）考查动词短语。pull over”靠边停车“;pull in”（火车）进站”;pull out “（火车）出站”;pull through“渡过难关”。作者靠边停车在镜子中看自己的脸色。故选A。
（7）考查介词。on“在……上面”;at“在……（地点）”;over“在……上方”;in“在……里面”。作者应该是在镜子中看自己的脸色，故选D。
（8）考查形容词。certain“某一”;some“某个,某种”;several“几个;”anxiety“焦虑”。作者怀疑自己感染了某种罕见的疾病。故选B。
（9）考查名词。comfort“舒适”;relief“缓解”;pain“疼痛”;anxiety“焦虑”。因为怀疑自己患了某种罕见 的 疾病,所以作者感到不舒服,回到家感觉身体某些部分有些疼痛。故选C。
（10）考查动词短语。pick out“挑选”;put out“出版,扑灭”;turn out“结果是”;figure out“弄清楚”。作者在下一次去加油站时弄清楚了缘由。故选D。
（11）考查动词。feel“感到”;behave“表现”;look“看起来”;see“看见”。加油站粉刷成了黄色,墙上反射出来的光线使里面的每个人看起来好像病了一样。故选C。
（12）考查连词。however“但是”;therefore“因此”;besides“此外”;otherwise“否则,不然”。葛奴上文可知，就是墙上反射出来的光线使里面的每个人看起来好像病了一样；在根据下文可知，我让那段短对话改变了我整整一天的态度。前后内容之间是转折关系,故选A。
（13）考查形容词。kind“友善的”;helpful“有帮助的”;rude“粗鲁的”;negative“消极的,悲观的”。服务员认为作者生病了,他的态度是消极的,悲观的。故选D。
（14）考查动词。matter“重要,要紧”;affect“影响”;decide “决定”;speak“讲话”。这次经历使得作者想了很多。生活也是如此,我们的态度很重要。故选A。
（15）考查动词。work“工作”;perform“表现”;learn“学习”;believe“相信”。根据上文"His 13 observation affected the way I felt and acted."可知,该空应该和act是近义词,故B选项正确：我们看待生活的方式决定了我们的感受和表现。故选B。
（16）考查副词。smoothly“光滑地”;badly“坏地”;well“好地”;positively“积极地”。but后面的内容和前一句构成转折关系。but后面提到的是如果我们认为好的事情会发生……;那么该处应该提到的是：如果我们认为情况不好,那么坏的事情就会发生。故选B。
（17）考查名词。principle“原则,原理”;saying“谚语”;meaning“意义”; sentence“句子”。根据上文可知，如果我们认为一些不好的事情会发生,那么它有可能真的会发生；再根据下文，如果我们认为好的事情会发生,那么它很大可能会发生。由此可知,该处指前一句的原理反过来也适用。故选A。
（18）考查副词。usually“通常”;certainly“当然,肯定”;definitely“绝对地”; seldom“很少”。根据上文该原理反过来同样适用可知,如果我们认为好的事情会发生,那么好的事情通常就会发生。故选A。
（19）考查名词。imagination“想象力”;tool“工具”;necessity“必要性,必需品”;importance“重要性”。上文作者论述了态度很重要。由此可知,该处表示：我认为积极的态度并不是奢侈品,而是一项必需品。故选C。
（20）考查形容词。important“重要的”;useful“有用的”;positive“积极的”;special“特别的”。上文作者强调了积极态度的重要性。因此该处应指：在我的余生,我将重视积极的一面。故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及动词，名词，形容词，副词，介词，连词，固定短语等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析推理，从而选出正确答案。
