Many more of us assign housework, or say we believe in them, but the housework just doesn39。t get done.”一些父母會說他們的孩子太忙了,沒有時間做家務。我們中更多的人會分配家務,或說我們相信他們,但家務就是做不完。可知少數(shù)家長覺得孩子學業(yè)太忙無暇做家務,但多數(shù)家長即便認為孩子該做家務,實際生活中也沒有很好地付諸實踐??芍獙Υ蠖鄶?shù)父母來說讓孩子做家務存在的問題是他們沒有把它付諸實踐。故選B。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Those early shared responsibilities extended to a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.”那些早期共同承擔的責任擴展到了他們生活的其他領域??芍恼略诘诙谓榻B了孩子做家務的好處,第三段用一項研究具體闡釋了第二段的內(nèi)容。該研究表明,孩子幼時做家務預示著成年后較早成功,因為做家務過程中培養(yǎng)出的責任感會遷移到生活的其他方面??芍髡咛岬窖芯渴菫榱俗C明讓孩子做家務是有益的。故選C。 (3)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“Yet while 82 percent reported having had regular housework growing up, only 56 percent of those with children said they required them to do housework.”然而,82%的人稱自己在成長過程中經(jīng)常做家務,而只有56%的有孩子的人稱自己需要孩子做家務??芍?,參與調(diào)查的1000個人中,82%的人說自己成長過程中經(jīng)常做家務,即有820人小時候做過家務。故選A。 (4)考查推理判斷。最后一段中的“What should you do when getting children to do housework?”要讓孩子做家務時你應該做什么?,是本段的主題句,作者在本段就“如何讓孩子參與到家務事中”向家長提供了建議??芍髡邔懙淖詈笠欢问墙o父母一些關于分配孩子做家務的建議。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 Food experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it39。s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing (沖洗)off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are mon in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria. The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn39。t caught on because it goes against the mon belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important. But food preparation is a plicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it39。s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging. The USDAfunded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli (大腸桿菌)and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking. To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren39。t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.(1)People don39。t accept USDA39。s advice because____. advice is relatively new seems more trustworthy clean the turkey before cooking it can kill most germs and no one eats raw food(2)What can be concluded from Paragraph 4? packages carry germs. and surfaces are easy to get E. coli. from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not. methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.(3)Which way may help to cook a turkey safely? off the turkey before it is heated. the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator. hands and packages before taking out the turkey. a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.(4)From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken? ....【答案】 (1)B(2)C(3)D(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,食品專家說清洗可能會在廚房水槽或附近的食物中傳播火雞身上的細菌,但美國農(nóng)業(yè)部的研究強調(diào)無論是否被清洗,火雞身上的細菌都會傳播,同時指出用溫度計檢查火雞的溫度有助于安全地烹飪火雞。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn39。t caught on because it goes against the mon belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman.”查普曼說,美國農(nóng)業(yè)部提出的“不清洗生禽”的建議相對較新,但可能還沒有流行起來,因為這違背了人們普遍認為的“清洗可以使東西干凈”的觀念,可知,人們不接受美國農(nóng)業(yè)部的建議是因為清洗似乎更值得信賴,故選B。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a qua
