(2015·呼和浩特第二次调研)A lot of us think that we should visit the dentist every six months. Whether those checkups are really necessary is, however, a matter of debate. In 2017, 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 space 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, he’s still making the same point.
Last year the Cochrane Collaboration performed a review of the 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.
There’s something else we have to bear in mind. Even when a study finds, for example, that children who go to the dentist 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.
How often should you visit the dentist,then? Bodies like Nice, which provides guidance for the National Health 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 longer 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? We’d all like an excuse to go less often, and the good news is that if you don’t have any problems you can probably wait a little longer than six months between visits.But exactly how long you can wait before your appointment with the dentist’s chair will depend on the assessment you and your dentist make of your own risk.

【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。很多牙医和护牙组织都认为,我们应该每六个月去检查一次牙齿。但是经过许多研究,并没有找到可以支持这种观点的合理性的确切证据。因此作者认为,我们多长时间去看一次牙医可以取决于个人的实际情况。
1.解析:选B。细节理解题。根据第一段第四句“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 2017,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。
