They are spending hours at desk at night, seldom going outside to play and getting to bed late.”可知,孩子們放學(xué)回家,書包里裝滿書和資料。晚上在書桌前學(xué)習(xí)幾個小時,很少出門玩耍并且上床睡覺很晚。這是由現(xiàn)象分析原因,看得出小學(xué)生和高中生的壓力很大的原因在于青少年的學(xué)習(xí)負擔(dān)過于繁重,因此文章的主要內(nèi)容是青少年的學(xué)習(xí)負擔(dān)過于繁重。故選C。 (2)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中“They are spending hours at desk at night, seldom going outside to play and getting to bed late.”孩子們晚上在書桌前學(xué)習(xí)幾個小時,很少出門玩耍并且上床睡覺很晚,可知,孩子們必須熬夜做過多的家庭作業(yè)。故選B。 (3)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Their eyes should go beyond their children39。s preparations for tests. Children need a break too. So let them be in control of parts of the day.”父母的眼睛不要總是關(guān)注孩子為考試做的準備。孩子們也需要休息,因此要讓他們自由控制一天中的某些時間,可知,作者建議父母需要給孩子更多的空閑時間以使他們得到放松。故選D。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段中的“How can this be a good thing?”這怎么可能是一件好事?和“too much of it may dampen (減 少)a student39。s enthusiasm for learning”太多作業(yè)可能會削弱學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)熱情,可知,作者對于給孩子太多家庭作業(yè)去做這件事持否定態(tài)度。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 The Diet Zone: A Dangerous Place Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, nofat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word diet everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential(潛力)of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically. Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, highcalorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word diet in food labels. On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zerocalorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don39。t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain es without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle. The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(營養(yǎng)成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous. Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that es from using them.(1)From Paragraph 1, we learn that ________. products fail to bring out people39。s potential have difficulty in choosing diet products products are misleading people are fed up with diet products(2)In Paragraph 3, gain es without pain probably means_______. weight is effortless costs a lot to lose weight products bring no pain products are free from calories(3)Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products . overconsumed basic nutrients short of chemicals too much energy(4)Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? Notes: CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Subpoint (次要點) C: ConclusionA.B.C.D.【答案】 (1)C(2)A(3)B(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,我們的生活中充斥著各種各樣的減肥產(chǎn)品。事實上,減肥產(chǎn)品不僅在身體上而且在心理上都給人們帶來了危害。減肥需要堅強的決心和實際的努力鍛煉,因此我們應(yīng)該向減肥產(chǎn)品說不。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential(潛力)of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically. Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically.”可知我們很容易被減肥產(chǎn)品的承諾和功效吸引,而不思考減肥產(chǎn)品給我們帶來了什么。我們付錢購買傷害我們身心健康的產(chǎn)品。減肥產(chǎn)品極大地從心理上削弱我們。所以減肥產(chǎn)品沒有他們自己宣傳的那么好,還會傷害我們自己,即減肥產(chǎn)品在誤導(dǎo)我們。故選C。 (2)考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第三段中的“Every time we have a zerocalorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don39。t have to work to get results.”
