【正文】 makes eating well one of the great health challenges of our time. Everyone from doctors to the government has been trying to handle it. Yet we keep eating junk food. Professor Christopher Bryan says, Food panies want you to want junk food. They spend millions of dollars ing up with new ways to^ promote junk food consumption. They hire scientists to make new junk food almost irresistible. They might do this, for example, by adding more sugar. Rats fed junk food for six weeks will even walk across a floor that gives them electric shocks just to get more of such food. Food ads often make unhealthy junk food seem healthy by featuring professional athletes, fitlooking pop stars and smiling, active teens. We thought when the students learned this, it would matter to them, Bryan says. He worked with 8th graders at a Texas school. Half of them got a lesson Bryan created. It focused on the ways junk food is advertised, or marketed. A second group received lessons that focused on health. These lessons informed students junk food is had, and that foods like apples or carrots are a better choice. The students learned a bad diet can lead to major weight gain, and that being overweight puts people at risk for serious diseases. They also learned how eating well now can keep you healthy when you39。re older. After the lessons, the kids in both groups were asked how they felt about junk food. Most didn39。t have positive feelings about these unhealthy foods.（1）Why does the author mention the questions in paragraph 1?

Everyone from doctors to the government has been trying to handle it.”可知，垃圾食品很美味，這使吃得好成為一個巨大的健康挑戰(zhàn)，從醫(yī)生到政府每一個人都一直在努力應(yīng)對這一挑戰(zhàn)。由此可知，對醫(yī)生而言，讓人們吃得健康依然是一個巨大的健康挑戰(zhàn)。故選B。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中先提到“食品公司想要消費(fèi)者想吃垃圾食品”，緊接著說到“它們（食品公司)花巨資想辦法推廣垃圾食品，它們聘請科學(xué)家制作新的垃圾食品，使人們幾乎無法抗拒”，接著還舉例說“它們可能會往垃圾食品中添加更多的糖”。由此可以推斷，作者在本段主要是想告訴讀者食品公司是如何想方設(shè)法讓人們?nèi)コ岳称返?。故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段主要介紹Bryan給德克薩斯州的一所學(xué)校的八年級學(xué)生們上的課，再根據(jù)文章最后一段After the lessons, the kids in both groups were asked how they felt about junk food. Most didn39。t have positive feelings about these unhealthy ，課后當(dāng)這些孩子被問及他們對垃圾食品的看法時，大多數(shù)人對這些不健康的食品都不持正面的看法。由此可以推斷，Bryan的課是有效的。故選C。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)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(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。9．閱讀理解 Teen Ink Contests Educator of the Year Contest Do you know an outstanding school teacher, coach, librarian, or principal?
