第1题:
Question 13: What is the function of GLP-1?
【试题解析】题干为:GLP-1的功能是什么?由It is a hormone that our bodies make. People without diabetes have GLP-1 as well, and it prevents the breakdown of insulin.(它是我们身体产生的一种激素。没有糖尿病的人也有GLP-1,它可以防止胰岛素的分解。)可知,GLP-1可以防止胰岛素的分解,从而减少糖尿病患者对胰岛素的需求量。因此A选项“It can reduce the need for insulin for diabetic patients.(它可以减少糖尿病患者对胰岛素的需求。)”正确。
第2题:
Question 14: Who are recommended to take the weekly injection of GLP-1?
【试题解析】题干为:推荐谁每周注射GLP-1?由If someone is new to shots, it’s less scary giving the weekly injections.(如果有人是第一次注射,那么每周注射一次就不那么可怕了。)可知,刚刚开始注射的糖尿病人可以选择每周注射一次,从而不会过于害怕。因此D选项“People who newly take insulin injections.(新注射胰岛素的人。)”正确。
第3题:
Question 15: What are the two speakers mainly talking about?
【试题解析】题干为:两位说话者主要在谈论什么?由Do you know some medications on the market now that are non-insulin injectable?(你知道现在市场上有一些非胰岛素注射的药物吗?)和Yeah, most of them fall into a group of medications called GLP-1.(是的,大多数都属于一组叫作GLP-1的药物。)可知,男士一开始问现在市场上有哪些非胰岛素注射药物,女士回答这些药物大多数属于一种名为GLP-1的药物,接下来的内容都是在围绕这个话题展开,谈到了什么是GLP-1类药物、它的作用、它的注射频率,所以本对话讨论的是GLP-1药物的作用及使用机制。因此C选项“The mechanism of action of GLP-1.(GLP-1的作用机制。)”正确。
【听力原文】
M: Do you know some medications on the market now that are non-insulin injectable?
W: Yeah, most of them fall into a group of medications called GLP-1. It is a hormone that our bodies make. People without diabetes have GLP-1 as well, and it prevents the breakdown of insulin.
M: So GLP-1 is already natural in our body. The medication just gives us more. How often could we give the injection?
W: Those are available once a day, once a week. We have a few options out there now. Usually, if someone is already taking insulin injections, they don’t mind as much taking the once daily injection. If someone is new to shots, it’s less scary giving the weekly injections.
