It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non173。organic food. Some parents and pet owners pay up to 200 percent more for organic food while some people think organic food is a waste of money. There is one main difference between organic and nonorganic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (殺蟲劑). This makes sure that the products are natural. Some people think organic means locally grown. At the beginning, this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small panies had to sell out to large panies. There weren39。t enough organic materials. This made it difficult for many organic panies to stay in business. Today, many large panies have an organic line of products. Is organic food more nutritious (有營養(yǎng)的)? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers (消費者) believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems, such as cancer. Many health experts disagree. Few studies prove that organic food prevents health problems. Health experts worry more about bacteria (細(xì)菌). These can e into contact with organic and non173。organic food. Doctors remend washing produce very carefully. Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.(1)What is probably the major concern(關(guān)注) of organic food consumers? ....(2)What is the doctors39。 suggestion? your own food. the use of pesticides. sure the food is clean. large panies39。 products.(3)Which of the following do most people agree on organic food? tastes better. is easier to grow. contains more fat. is more nutritious.(4)Where does this text probably e from? health magazine. medical report. chemistry paper. menu of a restaurant.【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)A(4)A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇議論文,講述了人們在有機食物的價格,有機食物是否更有營養(yǎng)等方面持有不同的觀點。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.”可知,有機食品消費者們認(rèn)為安全總比后悔好,所以愿意為了安全花更多的錢。故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“Doctors remend washing produce very carefully.”可知,醫(yī)生建議要非常細(xì)心的清洗農(nóng)產(chǎn)品。故選C。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better.”可知,大多數(shù)人同意自然生長的食物(即有機食品)味道更好。故選A。 (4)考查推理判斷??v觀全文可知,本文介紹了有機食物的有關(guān)信息,并提到了人們對于其營養(yǎng),價格等方面的不同意見,屬于飲食、健康方面的文章。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇健康類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。9.閱讀理解 We may be living in the digital age but reading books is still a big part of growing up. When they39。re in primary school, children read books that really challenge them. But once they reach secondary school, the level of difficulty doesn39。t change much. Secondary school students tend to read books which are also read by upper primary students. They are not challenging themselves enough. To discover these trends, I analyzed data collected by Accelerated Reader (AR) software, which asks pupils to check their understanding of the books they39。ve chosen to read. The difficulty — which I call readability. I also created two lists of books: one for the books that most secondary pupils had chosen to read, and another for the books they had voted as their favorites. According to the readability, these students39。 favorite books tend to be much more advanced than the other books they chose, but they could still understand them. The rest of the books most often chosen by them are quite simple. You might think that students who read harder books might make more mistakes and understand them less well. But students39。 quality of prehension does not depend on the difficulty of the book, no matter what year of secondary school they39。re in. Having an interest is the most obvious factor here — if you like the book, you try hard to really understand it. As children bee teenagers, they listen less to advice from adults and more to advice from kids of their age. So, rather than trying to lecture young people on the benefits of Jane Austen, we should make the nature of the problem clear to them. Students should challenge each other to read more difficult books. Adults could help by setting up noticeboards or organizing social media networks for young people to share their remendations. And teachers can lend a hand by setting aside time for reading in school. Young people will realize the problems that e when they don39。t challenge themselves to read difficult books.(1)What can we learn from the first paragraph? spend little time on afterclass reading school students seldom read tough books39。s reading interest tends to decrease as they grow up students have difficulty choosing good reading materials(2)The author made use of AR software to ________. children39。s different reading styles the average time children spend on reading out the causes of children39。s reading difficulties clear the difficulty levels of books read by children(3)What can we infer about secondary school students from the readability scores? find some advanced books interesting often make mistakes during advanced reading prefer to r
