【正文】 f moderate drinking increases weight. Boston University39。s Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms(生物學(xué)機制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers. The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight. For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one39。s risk of being obese. What39。s more, a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol(白藜蘆醇), a pound present in grapes and red wine destroys fat cells.（1）The passage is mainly for those___________. produce wine have a drinking habit go on a diet are eager to lose weight（2）The underlined phrase in moderation in the first paragraph means ___________. （3）What can we learn from the passage? data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight. is proved to increase the risk of being fat. research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect. specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear.（4）What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows? to do some easy experiments. to reduce the calories contained in wine. to prove the finding mentioned above. to make wine in a healthy way.【答案】 （1）B（2）D（3）C（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)酒也可能成為人們飲食的一部分，適當(dāng)?shù)娘嬀撇⒉粫?dǎo)致人們發(fā)胖，并且適量飲酒會防止人們得糖尿病。 （1）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“It has always been thought that alcohol causes people to put on weight because it contains a lot of sugar, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet.”可知，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)酒也可能成為人們飲食的一部分，適當(dāng)?shù)娘嬀撇⒉粫?dǎo)致人們發(fā)胖。全文都在敘述與之有關(guān)的研究，所以本文應(yīng)該是寫給那些喝酒的人的。故選B。 （2）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)第一段中的“Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight。 those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.”盡管酗酒的確可以增加體重，但是那些適當(dāng)飲酒的人實際上會減肥。根據(jù)連詞while可知，上下文存在對比關(guān)系，in moderation指適當(dāng)?shù)?，有?jié)制的，故選D。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity.”可知，適量飲酒對于糖尿病有防護(hù)作用，也就是說適量飲酒的人不會患上糖尿病。故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“What39。s more, a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol, a pound present in grapes and red wine destroys fat cells.”可知，一項研究說明葡萄和紅酒中存在的resveratrol實際上可以破壞肥胖細(xì)胞，那么接下來就應(yīng)該證明這一理論的正確性，故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇健康類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。8．閱讀理解 A study of 3,884 students from primary schools to colleges found that examinations made percent of primary students anxious, and more than 40 percent of high school children were out of sorts (身體不適)because of stress and anxiety. Moreover, 75 percent of the high school respondents admitted that they had problems talking to their parents and more than 55 percent of them found it hard to associate with other people, according to the study. It is not difficult to conclude that our children are not happy. Today39。s kids are ing home from school weighed down with backpacks full of books and worksheets. They are spending hours at desk at night, seldom going outside to play and getting to bed late. How can this be a good thing? Homework is eating away children39。s time to play freely with neighborhood kids and more importantly, their time to sleep. Homework can enrich the education process. But like all things, too much of it may dampen (減少）a student39。s enthusiasm for learning. To raise cheerful, contented and wellmannered children, parents need to put in a lot of time and effort. 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.（1）What does the passage mainly talk about? school students suffer more than primary school students. of the students have no problem talking to their parents. teenagers suffer from heavy workload. students are not happy at home.（2）According to the text, what do the children have to do with too much homework? have to take their backpacks. have to stay up late. have to eat more. have more time to play outdoors.（3）What does the author suggest the parents do? should spend more time with their children. need to ask their children to work hard. should not care about their children39。s test results. need to give children more free time.（4）What is the author39。s attitude toward giving children too much homework? ...【答案】 （1）C（2）B（3）D（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了小學(xué)生和高中生的壓力很大，產(chǎn)生的原因在于青少年的學(xué)習(xí)負(fù)擔(dān)過于繁重，由此作者向家長們提出呼吁，請給學(xué)生們一些自由的時間去放松一下。 （1）考查主旨大意。%、40%、75%、55%可知，小學(xué)生和高中生的壓力很大；以及第四段中的“Today39。s kids are ing home from school weighed down with backpacks full of books and worksheets. 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(fù)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(fù)擔(dān)過于繁重。故選C。 （2）考查細(xì)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(xì)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(zhǔn)備。孩子們也需要休息，因此要讓他們
