ladys”可知，此处指“上了年纪的”。故选A项。3C从语境可知，此处指作者作为医院的义工，通常帮助那些准备离开的“病人”。故选C项。4B上文提到作者通常帮助那些准备离开的病人。结合Instead“反而”可知，此处老人并不是准备离开，而是想去礼品店。故选B项。5C从下文7空前的“As I pushed her around”可知，此处指“轮椅”。故选C项。6D前一句提到“当我们到达礼品店时，商店还没有开门”，可以推断此处指30分钟的“等待”。故选D项。7C从空后的“happy to be out of her room”可知，此处指“高兴”。故选C项。8A上文提到“she looked at everything”，接下来应是“选择”。故选A项。9C结合语境可知，此处指老人要求作者推着她朝巧克力的方向走去。故选C项。10D根据空后的“all the different chocolate arrangements”可以推出，此处指作者帮老人“浏览”了所有不同的巧克力的布置。故选D项。11B在作者帮老人浏览完后，“最终”老人做出了决定。故选B项。12A上文提到老人购买了三种不同盒子的巧克力并让作者在上面写上数字。接下来是老人向作者解释为何这样做。故选A项。13D老人解释说护士们如此精心地照顾她，所以她为轮班的护士“买”了巧克力。故选D项。14C当作者他们给当前值班护士巧克力时，值班护士转而给了作者一些。故选C项。15B从下文17空前的“who

a limit to how long you can concentrate.FIts easier to get motivated but harder to remain concentrated.GStrict deadlines and time management techniques are necessary.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了应对考试季压力的方法。【难句分析】However，the one mistake we all make is where we sit down，plant our heads into our books and remain in the same position until the sun goes down.分析：本句是一个复合句。we all make是定语从句，关系词在从句中作宾语而省略，修饰先行词mistake; where引导表语从句，在从句中作地点状语；until引导时间状语从句。译文：然而，我们都犯的一个错误是，我们坐下来，埋头读书，并且保持同一个姿势直到太阳落山。1A该空承接上文中的“The exam period is always a stressful time and it does not do justice to our mindset(思维模式)and our physical body”并根据语境可推知，因为考试季的压力，我们在各个方面都深受其苦，所以选A项。2D根据上文中的“This will make it a lot less difficult to achieve glorious high marks”可推知，此处表示复习时间表的好处，并要起到承上启下的作用，D项“它也能够引导你朝正确的方向做出努力”符合语境，所以选D项。3G根据上文中的“Besides, you also enjoy the satisfaction you get as a result of pleting the most impossible timetable”可推知，要想完成最不可能完成的时间表上的任务，严格的期限和时间管理技巧是非常有必要的，所以选G项。4F根据下文中的“So it is fundamental that you choose to study in a quiet place，making sure that any disturbance is out of sight”可推知，获得动力很容易，但保持注意力集中却很难，因此避免干扰，选择一个安静的环境是很关键的，所以选F项。5E根据下文中的“These breaks help to absorb what you have learnt and help avoid information overload”可推知，注意力集中的时间是有一定限度的，因此可以中间稍事休息一下，所以选E项。
