公式集、全トピックの解法の要点、6 問の演習問題。完全な解答は巻末にあります。
“Marco checked the weather report three times, packed an extra jacket and put an umbrella by the door the night before the school trip.” What can you infer about Marco?
“The nurse noticed that Mr. Diaz, usually chatty, had barely spoken all morning and had left most of his breakfast. She sat down beside him and asked how he was feeling.” Why did the nurse most likely sit down with Mr. Diaz?
Choose the correct word: “A large ___ of patients visited the clinic.”
Which sentence uses dashes correctly to set off an interruption?
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The nurse recorded the time of onset of the chest pain.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The patient’s decline was precipitous.”
答え: A · He expects bad weather and likes to be prepared.
Checking the forecast and packing rain gear show that he expects poor weather and plans ahead. Nothing suggests he dislikes the trip.
答え: B · She noticed a change in his usual behaviour.
A normally chatty patient who is quiet and not eating has changed in behaviour. The nurse sits down to find out why, which can reveal pain, worry or illness.
答え: A · number
Use “number” with things you can count (patients, pills) and “amount” with things you cannot count (water, time).
答え: D · The results — all three of them — were normal.
A pair of dashes sets off an interrupting phrase, just like a pair of commas but with more emphasis. The sentence still works if the phrase is removed.
答え: A · Beginning
Onset is the beginning of a symptom or disease.
答え: C · Very sudden and steep
Precipitous means happening very suddenly or steeply, like a fall from a cliff.
