几个月前,我得了严重的感冒,最终演变成持续的咳嗽。无论我尝试了多少不同的疗法,我仍然无法摆脱咳嗽。这不仅给我的教学带来了不便,也影响了我的整个生活。然后有一天课后,一个学生来找我,推荐了传统中医。从她的描述中,中医听起来仿佛拥有神奇的力量,能创造奇迹。我犹豫不决,因为我对此了解甚少,而且从未尝试过。最终,我的咳嗽严重到晚上无法入睡,所以我决定试一试。中医医生给我把脉,并要求看我的舌头,这两者对我来说都是新奇的经历,因为在西医中不存在这些方法。然后医生给我进行了刮痧治疗,这是一种称为‘刮痧’的疗法。起初我有点害怕,因为他使用一种光滑边缘的工具刮我脖子和肩膀的皮肤。几分钟后,颤抖的手法开始产生缓解效果,我的身心开始更深地放松。最初几天,我没有感觉到任何好转,但在定期看医生几次后,我的咳嗽开始减轻。然后,几周之内,它完全消失了!

逐空答案与解析
26.
答案 I
解析此处需要一个名词,表示作者尝试的不同方法。根据上下文,作者尝试了不同的方法来治疗咳嗽,因此选择'remedies'(补救措施)符合语境。
27.
答案 D
解析此处需要一个名词,表示咳嗽给作者带来的不便。根据上下文,咳嗽不仅影响了作者的教学,也影响了他的生活,因此选择'inconvenience'(不便)符合语境。
28.
答案 H
解析此处需要一个动词,表示学生向作者推荐中医。根据上下文,学生向作者介绍了中医,并建议他尝试,因此选择'recommended'(推荐)符合语境。
29.
答案 C
解析此处需要一个形容词,表示作者对中医的态度。根据上下文,作者对中医知之甚少,从未尝试过,因此感到犹豫,选择'hesitant'(犹豫的)符合语境。
30.
答案 O
解析此处需要一个形容词或副词,表示作者咳嗽的严重程度。根据上下文,作者的咳嗽非常严重,以至于无法入睡,因此选择'worse'(更糟的)符合语境。
31.
答案 Bexperiences
解析空格位于系动词 were 之后、形容词 new 之后,作表语中心词,需可数名词复数。原句 'both of which were new ___ to me because they are both non-existent in Western medicine',指把脉与看舌头这两件事对作者而言是全新的'经历',故选 B experiences。F licenses(执照)与'被诊断的体验'语义不符,且与后文'西医里不存在'的逻辑对应的是体验而非执照。
32.
答案 J
解析此处需要一个形容词,表示作者最初对刮痧治疗的感受。根据上下文,作者对使用工具刮皮肤的治疗感到害怕,因此选择'scared'(害怕的)符合语境。
33.
答案 Ksensitive
解析空格在定冠词 the 与名词 strokes 之间,作前置定语,需形容词。原句 'the ___ strokes started to produce a relieving effect',描述刮痧手法逐渐变得'敏感、细腻'从而产生缓解效果,故选 K sensitive。N tremble 是动词(颤抖),不能直接作定语修饰 strokes,语法不通;词库内其余形容词(temporary/pressured 等)已被占用或语义不符。
34.
答案 Lsink
解析空格在 began to 之后,需动词原形作不定式中心词。原句 'my body and mind began to ___ deeper into relaxation',搭配 'sink deeper into relaxation'(更深地沉入放松状态)为固定地道表达,故选 L sink。A deepen 为及物/不及物动词'加深',但 'deepen deeper into' 语义重复且不搭配 into,不合习惯用法。
35.
答案 E
解析此处需要一个动词,表示作者咳嗽的变化趋势。根据上下文,作者的咳嗽开始减轻,因此选择'lessen'(减少)符合语境。
