Everyone knows that fish is good for health. 1 But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. 2 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.
3 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 4 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.
There?are?many?common?methods?used?to?cook?fish.? 5 First, clean?it?and?season?it?with?your?choice?
of?spices(调料). Put?the?whole?fish?on?a?plate?and?steam?it?in?a?steam?pot?for?8?to?10?minutes?if?it?weighs?about?one?
pound. (A?larger?one?will?take?more?time.) Then, it’s?ready?to?serve.
A. Do?not?buy?it.
B. The?easiest?is?to?steam?it.
C. This?is?how?you?can?do?it.
D. It?just?requires?a?little?knowledge.
E. The?fish?will?go?bad?within?hours.

G. The?fats?in?fish?are?thought?to?help?prevent?heart?disease.
【文章大意】文章主要介绍了一些买鱼和烧鱼的常识。带有强烈气味的鱼不新鲜，最简单的方法是蒸鱼。
1.G 【解析】第一句＂Everyone knows that fish is good for health.＂是总写，But表示转折，说明But前面一句是对第一句的解释，G项＂鱼中的脂肪有助于预防心脏病＂符合语境，故选G。

高考七选五解题方法：
1. 通读全文，了解文章大意。这是一个泛读的过程，目的是了解文章大意，为对全文的理解做铺垫。
2. 分析句型，了解语法构成。
3. 要明确每一个空是填一个整句子还是半个句子。这一点十分重要，它能够帮助我们迅速确定某些空的选项范围，比如，有一个空的结尾处没有标点符号，后面紧跟着一个句子的后半部分，很显然这时我们需要填的是半个句子，这时便可以在七个选项中找是半个句子的选项，从而缩小选择范围。
4. 明确关联关系。任何句子都是要么和上文有联系，要么和下文有联系，要么和上下文都有联系。例如第1空，第4空和第5空都与它们的前一句有联系。
5. 带入通读，复查。做完题目切忌直接离开，这时我们很有必要将自己修正好的文章通读一遍，将其看作一篇行文通顺、语意连贯的文章来读，这时如果感到有文义不连贯的地方，就要复查了。注意：七选五的特点在于，一道题做错了，往往另外的一道或几道题也会做错，我们叫做"连错"，所以当你发现自己有一处错误时，一定要检查其它空。

Passage1
Everything is online these days, and its so easy to search online for whatever you want. The Internet is a valuable tool, but it’s easy to find yourself disturbed by it. For example, you’re working on an essay, and you need to do some search online.? 1 Before you know it, you’ve spent an hour reading more information than you’ll be able to use. Maybe you notice an attractive title or something else that draws you away from your work.? 2
Addiction to social media is closely related to our general addiction to the Internet. Everyone is always on their phones.? 3 As a result, when I get to work, I don*t have enough attention and energy to put toward the task. If this sounds like you, then your productivity has suffered because of the way you use the Internet.
4 So we should learn to live with it. The only way to stop the Internet from occupying all your time and concentration is to disconnect. When you disconnect, you’ll get your attention back and work productively. Thus, when working on a challenging task, keep your phone out of reach. Meanwhile, go into your work with the intention of having greater focus and energy so that you’ll be discouraged from using the Internet.? 5 This pressure will help you get the job done on time.
A. Your search terms bring back 20 pages of results.
B. On the whole, the Internet can be a help or a block.
C. It will draw your attention to more important matters.
D. The Internet has changed the way our world functions.
E. As a result, time disappears but you still don’t finish your work.

G. Besides, you can force yourself to complete your task in the fixed time.
Passage2
Eating together as a family is a rare thing these days.? 1 .Once I start my own family, I’ll definitely do anything possible to establish a tradition of eating together as a family. Here’s why.
2
When you eat together as a family each day, your children will learn to respect both parents. They know you two are busy, but still find time to share meals with them.
Learn good table manners
When you have small kids, eating together as a family is an easy way to show and teach them good table manners, of course, if yours are good.? 3 ,how to be on time so that other family members don’t starve, and how to behave at the table. You want to be proud of your grown-up kids, don’t you?
Create wonderful memories
4 .They will know how important it is to eat together as a family, and will definitely teach their kids to do the same. Your family tradition of sharing meals together as a family will pass down from generation to generation.
There are many benefits of eating together as a family that many of us didn’t even think about. Teach your children to appreciate family time and food, and show them how to behave well at the table.? 5 .
A. Respect both Mom and Dad
B. Your children will learn when it’s best to eat
C. They will thank you down the road
D. Parents are always busy and kids have their own plans
E. When you eat together, you do eat those healthy meals too

答案
Passage 1
【文章大意】本文以在线搜索为例说明网络有利也有弊，我们必须合理使用它。
Passage2
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了家人一起吃饭的好处。家人一起吃饭不仅可以增进家人间的感情，同时还会给彼此留下美好的回忆。
1.D 【解析】空前面一句"Eating together as a family is a rare thing these days"说当今，一家人在一起吃饭是很罕见的事，与D项"Parents are always busy and kids have their own plans"(父母忙，孩子有他们自己的规划)意义衔接紧密，并且空前面一句中的family与选项中的Parents， kids相呼应。
【名师点睛】
说明文是阅读理解七选五常考的体裁，随着高考阅读理解七选五题型的不断成熟，选材方面逐渐要求体现社会主义核心价值观和培养学生的核心素养。此篇文章的主题是家人一起吃饭的好处，体现了家庭生活的和谐，这是社会主义核心价值观的一个方面，也是培养学生的核心素养的一个方面。考生不仅要掌握作者的写作意图和观点，而且要能够把握文章的结构和脉络层次，只有了解了这一切，才能比较准确地确定选项。
进步，在于总结。我在这，总结在哪儿？

【考点猜想】
七选五的题型是给考生呈现一篇缺了五句话的文章，并要求考生根据文章的结构、逻辑、上下文的内容选出相应的五个句子填入空白处。选填的句子既有主旨性的句子，又有细节性的句子。这类题目通常考查考生对文章框架结构和语篇逻辑的把握能力，包括识别主题段、主题句，句子间的语意连贯与逻辑关系，上下句的例证、对比、并列等线索关系。
2017年全国I卷七选五是记叙文。作者描述了自己三年前对露营一无所知，也不认为自己会喜欢露营。然而后来有过几次露营的经历，作者和他的家人开始爱上了露营。作者认为露营是回归大自然的一种方式，也建议读者找到适合自己的回归自然的方式。
2017年全国Ⅱ卷七选五是说明文。介绍了避免工作时被打断的几种方法。短文结构紧凑、脉络清晰。
预测2018年高考七选五的文章选材上会有一定的延续性，很可能是说明文，也可能是记叙文，但不排除议论文的可能。缺少的句子还会有全文主旨句或段落主旨句，考点涉及篇章结构与逻辑关系，会通过词汇复现与逻辑词提示来暗示考生。
Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while you’re trying to get work done. 36 ,there are several ways to handle things. Let’s take a look at them now.
37 .Tell the person you’re sorry and explain that you have a million things to do and then ask if the two of you can talk at a different time.
When people try to interrupt you, have set hours planned and let them know to come back during that time or that you’ll find them then. 38 .It can help to eliminate(消除) future interruptions.
When you need to someone, don’t do it in your own office. 39 , it’s much easier to excuse yourself to get back to your work than if you try to get someone out of your space even after explaining how busy you are
If you have a door to your office, make good use of it. 40 . If someone knocks and it’s not an important matter. Excuse yourself and let the person know you’re busy so they can get the hint(暗示) than when the door is closed, you’re not to be disturbed.

【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。为避免工作被打断是一件令人感觉很糟糕的事，文章提出了几点建议，防止此类事件的发生。
【应试必备】
阅读理解七选五要求从短文后的七个选项中（均为完整的句子）选出五个能填入文章空处的最佳选项，主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。其命题形式深受英语四六级和考研阅读多项选择题的影响，体现了《新课标》＂用英语获取、处理和运用信息的能力；逐步获取用英语思维的能力。＂的阅读学习和教学理念。该题型命题形式仍然具有客观题的特点，又与完形填空具有异曲同工之妙，只是选项少，以句子形式出现，考查目的和侧重点不完全相同而已。?
从《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述＂主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。＂可以得出以下判断：该题备选项可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。其多余的两个干扰项也往往从这三方面进行设置，例如主旨概括句或过于宽泛或以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。
文章体裁以说明文为主，语篇模式较为固定：提出问题——提供解决方案。文章题材较为固定：与学生的日常生活学习紧密相关。
Passage1
I have been living in Toulouse for over four months now and I can safely say that my ability to talk to French people has improved in an unbelievable way. I was told before I came out to France by a man I respected that living abroad would be the making of me.____1__ Here is my four-step guide to living in a foreign country:
1.Integrate(融合) with the culture and the people. It is very easy to go to work and just come straight home but this will lead to periods of huge boredom and loneliness. ____2___ Until recently, I did not believe that a friend made on a year abroad is a friend for life but now I do.
2. ____3___ I joined a church in Toulouse and as a result I now have a place to go to practice my faith. If you are a religious person this point could really help you. If you enjoy your exercise, joining a gym is also a good idea.
3.Speak the language. Even if you can’t speak the local language well, at least make efforts to try and improve____ 4___
4.Travel. ____5___ More importantly, it gives you memories that allow you to tell others of your experiences.

Life getting you down? Learn to bounce back

Find something you can control.
2 But taking small, positive steps in any area of our life can have a ripple effect, enabling us to move forward in the problem area.
3
As a species, we tend to focus on what’s wrong rather than what’s right. But we can benefit a lot from paying attention to what’s going right. Psychologists have shown consciously focusing on these good things helps to increase our experience of positive emotions.
Check your thinking.
4 Leading psychologist Martin Seligman found that the way we interpret the causes of everyday setbacks can have a significant impact on our ability to cope and our physical health. He also showed we can learn more resilient(有弹性的) thinking styles.
Distract yourself.
When we are immersed in a problem, it is hard to think creatively about ways to deal with it. It often helps to take time out from the things you are worrying about. 5 Not only does this give us a break from what we’re doing and our worries, it’s also great for our minds.
A. Always do something that is right.
B. It’s true that there are lots of things we can’t control.
C. An effective way of taking time out is exercise.
