Whether those checkups are really necessary is, however, a m
15、atter of debate. In 2014, threequarters of dentists surveyed in New York were recommending sixmonthly checkups, despite the absence of evidence. Today，many organizations still recommend sixmonthly checkups. But for several decades some have been arguing that the choice of six months as the ideal spa
16、ce between visits is rather questionable.For example, Aubrey Sheiham, a professor of dental public health, published a paper complaining about the lack of evidence for sixmonthly checkups. Almost 40 years, hes still making the same point.Last year the Cochrane Collaboration performed a review of the
17、 research that had been done and they were disappointed with what they found. The quality and quantity of the research was simply too poor to back up the idea of sixmonthly checkups.Theres something else we have to bear in mind. Even when a study finds, for example, that children who go to the denti
18、st frequently have fewer fillings, there may be other factors(因素) at work. Those same children may have other advantages: they may eat more healthily and have better quality dental equipment.5How often should you visit the dentist，then? Bodies like Nice, which provides guidance for the National Heal
19、th Service in England and Wales, say that the frequency of dental visits all depends on the individual. They recommend that children go at least once a year because their teeth can decay(蛀蚀) faster, while adults without problems can wait as long as two years. They even go as far as to say that longe
20、r than two years is OK for people who have shown commitment to caring for their teeth.Where does this leave the rest of us the next time we receive a card in the mail reminding us our next dental visit is due? Wed all like an excuse to go less often, and the good news is that if you dont have any pr
21、oblems you can probably wait a little longer than six months between visits.But exactly how long you can wait before your appointment with the dentists chair will depend on the assessment you and your dentist make of your own risk.1Who supports sixmonthly dental checkups?AAll the dentists.

25、句“Today，many organizations still recommend sixmonthly checkups.”可知，现在有很多组织都建议人们每六个月就去做一次牙齿检查。故答案选 B。根据第一段第三句“In 2014，threequarters of dentists surveyed.sixmonthly checkups”可知，有四分之三的牙医推荐人们每六个月做一次牙齿检查，故 A项错误；根据第一段倒数第二句可知，Aubrey Sheiham 认为每六个月去检查一次缺乏证据，故 C项错误；根据第四段第二句可知，国民医疗保健服务认为看牙医的频率应取决于个人情况，故 D项错误。
26、2解析：选 A。细节理解题。根据第三段第二句中“there may be other factors(因素)at work”可知，这项研究可能无法证实人们应该每六个月去做一次牙齿检查的这种观点7是因为：可能有其他一些因素在起作用。故答案选 A。3解析：选 A。推理判断题。通读最后两段并根据第四段第二句中“the frequency of dental visits all depends on the individual”可知，多长时间去看一次牙医取决于个人情况，即看牙医的频率因人而异。故答案选 A。4解析：选 C。标题归纳题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要讨论的是人们应该多久去做一次牙齿检查。
27、C 项意为“我们需要多久去看一次牙医？” ，体现了本文的中心，适合做标题。故答案选 C。CA Manhattan CrossingNew Yorkers like to say they can walk faster than the crosstown bus. On 34th Street, buses average about four miles an hour.
