he first time since 1993. The health of modem people is declining, despite highly advanced medical technologies and the booming health and fitness industry. s body in a practical and effective manner is no longer an embarrassing condition. The fitness industry no matter how good each new program claims to be, has failed to get the majority of people to value, practice, and enjoy physical exercise. 問題產(chǎn)生很大一部分原因是人們?nèi)狈?nèi)在動機(jī)。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every munity has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works.”顯然,這些最新的發(fā)展帶來了很多好處:人們普遍意識到定期鍛煉的重要性,幾乎每個社區(qū)都有一個健身房或健身俱樂部,人們可以去那里或花錢去那里鍛煉,我們對人體如何工作了解得更多,可知健身產(chǎn)業(yè)帶來了積極的影響。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Or will the solution e from a different mindset, a simpler approach and practice, and overall a new culture?”或者,解決方案將來自一個不同的心態(tài),一個更簡單的方法和實踐,以及一個全新的文化?可推知作者似乎同意改變對健康的態(tài)度。 (4)考查主旨大意。故選A。6.閱讀理解 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. 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. s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging. 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 accept USDA39。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。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(rèn)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。根據(jù)第四段中的“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.”在那些清洗生雞肉的人中,約四分之一的人最終將細(xì)菌傳播到生菜上,但即使是一些沒有清洗雞肉的人,生菜上也有細(xì)菌,火雞身上的細(xì)菌還有其他生存的機(jī)會:融化和烹飪,可知,不管火雞是否被清洗,它身上的細(xì)菌都會傳播,故選C。根據(jù)最后一段中的“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.”為了確保一只家禽被徹底煮熟,他們說要用溫度計檢查它最深和最厚的部分是否達(dá)到165度,可知,用溫度計檢查火雞的溫度有助于安全地烹飪火雞,故選D。通讀全文可知,本文主要介紹了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(xì)菌,但美國農(nóng)業(yè)部的研究強(qiáng)調(diào)無論是否被清洗,火雞身上的細(xì)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,這屬于科學(xué)范疇,因此這篇文章最有可能出自于雜志的科學(xué)版塊,故選B。7.閱讀理解 re in primary school, children read books that really challenge them.

Adults could help by setting up noticeboards or organizing social media networks for young people to share their remendations. And teachers can lend a hand by setting aside time for reading in school. Young people will realize the problems that e when they don39。成年人可以通過設(shè)立公告欄或組織社交媒體網(wǎng)絡(luò)來幫助年輕人分享他們的推薦。年輕人會意識到,如果他們不挑戰(zhàn)自己去讀難懂的書,問題就會出現(xiàn),可知,作者在建議提高學(xué)生閱讀能力方面,將責(zé)任分別劃分到了學(xué)生、老師、家長身上。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)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(zhǔn)確掌握細(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。 Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time municates in many ways. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the United States, guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. it would be too impolite. A person who is five minutes late is expected to make a short apology.s wait in an outer office. Yet in the country where this story took
