on explicitly—or most of them don39。t explicitly mention—environmental impacts, that you are going to have lower environmental impacts due to that.” 我們發(fā)現(xiàn)(營養(yǎng)膳食指南的)影響因國家而異,但總的來說,在影響力較大的國家,如果你遵循國家推薦的膳食指南,即使這些膳食并未明晰對環(huán)境的影響,或者大多數(shù)膳食沒有明確說明這一點,但是你對環(huán)境的影響會因為遵循指南而減輕。由此推斷出 并非所有國家都以明確的方式推薦飲食 ,這個觀點Paul Behrens會贊成,故選C。 (2)考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“A third of the ice173。free land on Earth is used for agriculture, and according to some estimates, producing food accounts for roughly a fifth of all human173。caused greenhouse gas emissions. Fertilizer runoff also leads to other problems, like the algae blooms in Lake Eerie and the Dead Zone in the Gulf of Mexico.”地球上三分之一的無冰區(qū)被用于農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn),根據(jù)一些估算,食物生產(chǎn)大約占到了人類造成的溫室氣體排放量的五分之一。肥料徑流也導(dǎo)致了其他問題,例如伊利湖的藻類爆發(fā)以及墨西哥灣的死亡區(qū)域。由此推斷出劃線詞所在的句子意思是我們所吃的食物給環(huán)境帶來了巨大代價。takes a big toll on固定短語,“付出了巨大的代價”,故選B。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“A third of the ice173。free land on Earth is used for agriculture, and according to some estimates, producing food accounts for roughly a fifth of all human173。caused greenhouse gas emissions.”地球上三分之一的無冰區(qū)被用于農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn),根據(jù)一些估算,食物生產(chǎn)大約占到了人類造成的溫室氣體排放量的五分之一。由此可知。A選項的描述 糧食生產(chǎn)可導(dǎo)致約20%的人為造成的溫室氣體,而只使用了三分之一的無冰土地 正確,故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息,同時根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。4.閱讀理解 A new study suggests a link between exposure to greenery and reduced desires for alcohol cigarette and junk food. The study is the first to investigate the possible relationships between exposure to nature and desires and negative emotions. Researchers at the University of Plymouth39。s School of Psychology surveyed 149 respondents (應(yīng)答者) aged 21 o 65 about the proportion( 比例 )of green space in their neighborhood, the presence of green views from their home, their access to a garden and how often they use public green space. The study also asked questions about experiences with depression and anxiety, as well as desires for things like caffeine, alcohol and nicotine. Participants rated the intensity( 強(qiáng)度), imagery, and intrusiveness(侵?jǐn)_性) of their desires on an 11point scale. Researchers found the presence of visible green space contributed to decreased desires for junk food. The effect was particularly noticeable when more than 25 percent of a respondent39。s view was greenery. Previous scholarship(學(xué)術(shù)研究) has dealt mostly with exercise in nature: A 2015 study out of the University of Michigan found 90 minute group nature walks were effective at batting depression and relieving other mood disorders. But for people who struggle with accessibility or don39。t have time for a 90minute walk, this new study suggests just looking out a window at a tree can help fight off a bad habit. It has been known for some time that being outdoors in nature is linked to a person39。s wellbeing, lead author Leanne Martin said in a statement. But for there to be a similar association with desires from simply being able to see green space adds a new dimension to the previous research. A 2018 study from Denmark39。s Aarhus University for example, found that. Having access to green space throughout childhood decreased a person39。s risk of developing mental health problems as an adult.(1)What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? results of the new study. purpose of the new study. significance of the new study. content of the new study.(2)What does the underlined word batting in paragraph 4 probably mean? ...(3)According to the passage, the new study _____. referred to exercise in nature enriched the previous research to some degree carried out by the University of Michigan exposure to greenery helped cure mental problems(4)n which section of a newspaper may this passage appear?

I remember as if it were yesterday, hearing her voice at my side on a cold wintry night. My mother39。s voice changed my world. Long before I could read on my own, she shared with me the strength and beauty of McCloskey39。s language a story of a little girl and her mother out in nature, coexisting with a mother bear and her own baby. The power of the story, of language and of my mother all came together. And it happened many times after that, over and over. The read aloud made me a reader. Years later, I was reading aloud a picture book to a small child in a classroom. His life, so far, had not been easy. His childhood was troubled by poverty and loneliness. In that moment, in the joy of the read aloud, he had an idea that started something big. What he said was this: Mrs. Allyn, let39。s make sure everyone knows how good this feels. Let39。s have a holiday for the read aloud Therefore, my organization, LitWorld, created a grassroots movement World Read Aloud Day in 2010 to honor this young boy39。s wish for everyone to be able to have a read aloud every day. Since the day he shared that good idea with us, World Read Aloud Day has bee a worldwide event reaching over one million people in more than 65 countries around the world. This year we are over 600 cities strong, a number that is growing every day. Children who grow up as readers bee engaged citizens of the global world, and every child deserves the right to read. When I say that reading aloud will change the world, I know it sounds simple. But one of the many great things about giving kids access to the power of stories and sharing them together is that it is simple. It is also cheap and easily done. And the impact is huge.
