British researchers recently found that kids who eat less salt also drink fewer sugary soft drinks. ”減少鹽可能有助于阻止兒童長胖。英國的研究人員最近發(fā)現(xiàn)吃鹽少的孩子喝的含糖飲料也更少，可知，作者認為吃多鹽食品和喝過多含糖的軟飲料也會使孩子長胖。故選C。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“A recent study found that a growing number of kids in the US are suffering from kidney stones.

Start by adding half as much salt to your dinner as you normally do. Switch to fresh foods instead of canned and bottled versions. And go easy on the condiments(調(diào)味品). You might also want to start reading nutrition labels. ”減少鈉攝入量的最好方法是逐漸改變。先在晚餐中加入平時一半的食鹽。食用新鮮食品而非罐裝或者瓶裝食品。少放些調(diào)味品。你可能也要閱讀營養(yǎng)標簽。可知，本段提供了一些可以減少食鹽攝入量的方法。故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和主旨大意兩個題型的考查，是一篇健康類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 A recent documentary produced by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has caused a stir in China and in the UK. The documentary, titled Are Our Kids Tough Enough? focuses on five Chinese teachers who are sent to teach 50 UK teens at a school in Hampshire. The teachers instruct the students for a month. The pupils are then tested, and the results are pared to the ones of those who have continued in the regular UK education system. The idea is to see if the Chinese method improves academic performance. The Chinese teachers use their own teaching methods but receive strong resistance from the students. A clip from the documentary online shows some problems, with Chinese teachers calling their students lazy and lacking in discipline, while the students say the high pressure and harsh teachers are driving them crazy. This has aroused a new debate in both China and the UK, with some arguing the teenagers need more regulation and discipline. Others say Chinese methods encourage rote learning (死記硬背) instead of independent thinking. For instance, Chinese language teachers should do more than pass on knowledge about words and characters. They should inspire students, helping them feel the sentiment from Chinese literature. This is a higher level of teaching. Yang Dongping, dean of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, says, The Chinese teaching methods are designed to strictly train the majority. Foreign teaching methods, however, are more natural and relaxing, and designed to inspire students39。 interest in learning. Education methods are based on culture. That is why a successful education method in one place may not work that well when simply 39。transplanted39。 into another place. Yang Dongping says, The documentary does reflect some problems rooted in traditional Chinese teaching methods. Nobel prize winner, Yang Zhenning, gave a very fair ment on this issue. He said the Chinesestyle education method works for most ordinary qualified students effectively, helping them reach high standards. However, it may weaken the training for highpotential outstanding students.（1）Why are five Chinese teachers sent to teach 50 UK teens? test the intelligence of the UK teens. help the school improve their teaching efficiency. do some practical research into the UK education system. test the effectiveness of Chinese teaching methods.（2）What39。s the meaning of the underlined word harsh in the fourth paragraph? strict friendly cold attractive（3）According to Yang Dongping Chinese teaching methods ______. all countries be improved the best in the world not as good as British methods【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，一部關于教學方法的紀錄片在中英兩國引起了不小的關注——五名中國老師被派去教英國學生，結(jié)果學生很不適應，這說明教學方法是以文化為基礎的，在一個國家取得成功的教學方法在另一個國家不一定奏效。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“The idea is to see if the Chinese method improves academic performance.”這個想法是為了看看中國的方法是否能提高學習成績，可知，五名中國老師被派去教英國學生是為了檢驗中國教學方法的成效。故選D。 （2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第四段中的“with Chinese teachers calling their students lazy and lacking in discipline, while the students say the high pressure and harsh teachers are driving them crazy.”中國老師稱他們的學生懶惰和缺乏紀律，而學生則說壓力太大和嚴厲的老師讓他們發(fā)狂。由此可知，劃線詞意為“嚴厲的”。故選A。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“The Chinese teaching methods are designed to strictly train the majority. Foreign teaching methods, however, are more natural and relaxing, and designed to inspire students39。 interest in learning. Education methods are based on culture.”可知，楊東平認為，中國的教學方法側(cè)重于嚴格要求，而英國的教學方法更為自然和輕松，旨在激發(fā)學生的學習興趣，教學方法是以文化為基礎的。由此可知，楊東平認為中國的教學方法有待改進。故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，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)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。9．閱讀理解 Many kids help out around the house with chores(家庭雜務) such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances(補貼) or other rewards such as extra puter time. But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn39。t worth doing unless you get something in return. Running any kind of household is a team effort, Susie said, a home is a living space for everyone in the family. It39。s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they wan
