Question

【題目】 You may be relying more and more on your refrigerator. But you should know there are some things you’d better not put into your refrigerator.

【1】 Nothing dries out bread faster than your refrigerator. If you make sandwiches with the bread, and then place them in the refrigerator, the cold temperature will make the bread hard like nuts. Besides, the coldness makes the bread become hard at a faster speed.

Coffee. Since ground coffee like coffee beans require cool, dry and dark spots to keep their taste and freshness, the refrigerator is not a good place for them. Coffee also needs an airtight（密封的）container. But if you have much coffee that you won’t use right away, then you can freeze it. 【2】 This way, you can store it for up to a month.

Tomatoes. 【3】 But putting them in the refrigerator will cause them to lose all of their good taste. Plus, the cold air in the cooler refrigerator stops the ripening（成熟的）process as well. And as we all know, ripening is what gives every tomato more taste. For best results, keep tomatoes out, and inside a basket or a bowl on your counter.

Honey. Make sure that you keep honey in an airtight container. 【4】 Therefore. storing it in your cooler refrigerator doesn’t make sense. Honey is a naturally preserved food so it needs no help from us. Amazingly enough, placing honey in your refrigerator will in fact speed up the sugar crystallization （結晶）process. 【5】

A. Nuts.

B. Bread.

C. We all love tomatoes for their taste.

D. Just make sure to put the coffee in airtight bags.

E. Honey will stay good almost forever in that way.

F. Some of you dislike the tomatoes’ taste because it is a little strange.

G. As a result, the honey will become harder or nearly impossible to eat.

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【4】E

【5】G

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章建議了四種食品不適合放進冰箱。

【1】設空句為小標題句，根據下面三個標題的內容和句子結構，選項A和B符合條件，這部分內容中的bread，詞匯復現，選項B切題，故選B。

【2】設空句所在段落的小標題為Coffee，只有選項D中出現了coffee，詞匯復現，切題，故選D。

【3】設空句所在段落的小標題為Tomatoes，七個選項中有C和F中出現的tomatoes，由設空句的下一句But putting them in the refrigerator will cause them to lose all of their good taste. 但是把它們放在冰箱里會使他們失去所有的好味道。可知，設空句是談tomatoes的好味道的，選項C切題，故選C。

【4】設空句所在段落的小標題為Honey，選項中E和G中出現了honey，從設空句后的Therefore知道它是結論句，所以設空句不能再是結論，選項G中的As a result因此，是總結和結論，不是正確選項，只有選項E切題，故選E。

【5】設空句所在段落的小標題為Honey，選項中E和G中出現了honey，這個設空句在段尾，是對上文的總結，選項G中的As a result因此，是有總結意思的詞匯，切題，故選G。

七選五中的詞匯復現是解題的技巧之一。本題中的五個小題，全部可以利用詞匯復現直接選定答案或是初步篩選符合的選項，來縮小選擇選項的范圍。第2小題選項的確定就是直接應用詞匯復現來鎖定答案，因為七個選項中只有選項D中出現了coffee，與小標題吻合。第1、3、4、5小題都是先利用詞匯復現縮小了選擇范圍，只需要在兩個選項中進行選擇判斷，也使選擇難度降低了。
