（2021九下·高州期中）阅读短文，从每小题所给的四个选项中，选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。
British scientists monitoring the symptoms(症状) of COVID-19 say a loss of the sense of
smell and an inability to taste food should be added to the list of well-known
indicators(指标) of COVID-19, which include a high
temperature, sore throat, and persistent(持续的) dry
cough.
The scientists made the discovery after analyzing data(数据) collected through an app. The data was collected
between 1.8 million users and the app between March 24 and March 31. The team
looked at the information from the app and developed a mathematical model that
was able to conclude which symptoms were the best at predicting who would later
test positive(阳性) for the disease. The total basket of
symptoms included fever, persistent cough, fatigue, diarrhea, abdominal pain,
loss of appetite, and loss of smell and taste.
"When combined with other symptoms, people with loss of
smell and taste appear to be three times more likely to have contracted
COVID-19 according to our data, and should self-isolate for at
least 14 days to reduce the spread of the disease," Tim Spector, the
King's College professor who led the study, told the Reuters news
agency.
However, the team said that a loss of smell and taste can
also be an indicator of other infections(感染), such as a common cold, so not everyone with those symptoms will
have COVID-19.
They said a high fever and persistent cough remain the most
important indicators of COVID-19 and the loss of smell and taste should only be
paid attention to if they are in combination with other symptoms. So far,
Public Health England and the World Health Organization said more research is
needed.
56．The list of well-known indicators of COVID-19 includes the following EXCEPT _______.
A．high temperature B．persistent dry cough
C．a loss of the sense of hearing D．sore throat
57．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "self-isolate"
A．自我陶醉 B．自我隔离 C．自我欣赏 D．居家令
58．The British scientists discovered the new symptoms of COVID-19 from_______.
A．all the COVID-19 patients in Britain.
B．the Public Health England and the World Health Organization.
C．the data collected from an app and the 1.8 million app users.
D．the infections around the whole world.
59．According to the data, if a British man flew to Guangzhou on July 9, he should stay in the quarantine hotel until__________.
A．July 23 B．July 20 C．July 21 D．July 11
60．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．A common cold and COVID-19.
B．Why we lost the ability of smell and taste.
C．Everyone with a loss of smell and taste does have COVID-19.
D．New probable symptoms of COVID-19.

British scientists monitoring the symptoms(症状) of COVID-19 say a loss of the sense of
smell and an inability to taste food should be added to the list of well-known
indicators(指标) of COVID-19, which include a high
temperature, sore throat, and persistent(持续的) dry
cough.
The scientists made the discovery after analyzing data(数据) collected through an app. The data was collected
between 1.8 million users and the app between March 24 and March 31. The team
looked at the information from the app and developed a mathematical model that
was able to conclude which symptoms were the best at predicting who would later
test positive(阳性) for the disease. The total basket of
symptoms included fever, persistent cough, fatigue, diarrhea, abdominal pain,
loss of appetite, and loss of smell and taste.
"When combined with other symptoms, people with loss of
smell and taste appear to be three times more likely to have contracted
COVID-19 according to our data, and should self-isolate for at
least 14 days to reduce the spread of the disease," Tim Spector, the
King's College professor who led the study, told the Reuters news
agency.
However, the team said that a loss of smell and taste can
also be an indicator of other infections(感染), such as a common cold, so not everyone with those symptoms will
have COVID-19.
They said a high fever and persistent cough remain the most
important indicators of COVID-19 and the loss of smell and taste should only be
paid attention to if they are in combination with other symptoms. So far,
Public Health England and the World Health Organization said more research is
needed.
56．The list of well-known indicators of COVID-19 includes the following EXCEPT _______.
A．high temperature B．persistent dry cough
C．a loss of the sense of hearing D．sore throat
57．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "self-isolate"
A．自我陶醉 B．自我隔离 C．自我欣赏 D．居家令
58．The British scientists discovered the new symptoms of COVID-19 from_______.
A．all the COVID-19 patients in Britain.
B．the Public Health England and the World Health Organization.
C．the data collected from an app and the 1.8 million app users.
D．the infections around the whole world.
59．According to the data, if a British man flew to Guangzhou on July 9, he should stay in the quarantine hotel until__________.
A．July 23 B．July 20 C．July 21 D．July 11
60．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．A common cold and COVID-19.
B．Why we lost the ability of smell and taste.
C．Everyone with a loss of smell and taste does have COVID-19.
D．New probable symptoms of COVID-19.

59．细节题。根据When combined with other symptoms, people with loss of smell and taste appear to be three times more likely to have contracted COVID-19 according to our data, and should self-isolate for at least 14 days to reduce the spread of the disease根据我们的数据，当与其他症状相结合时，嗅觉和味觉丧失的人感染新冠肺炎的可能性似乎要高出三倍，并且应该自我隔离至少14天，以减少疾病的传播，可知7月9日开始隔离，隔离14天，所以待到7月23日，故选A。
