第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree,new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.
One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders.Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.
A second study,looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand,found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood.But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don’t rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters(年轻人) may watch lots of TV.
Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15.Those with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood,compared with an average of more than 2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.
In the California study,children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest,while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.
While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores,it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn’t have TVs in their bedrooms.
1.According to the California study,the low-scoring group might 　　　. 
A.have watched a lot of TV
B.not be interested in math
C.be unable to go to college
D.have had computers in their bedrooms
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。第二段中描述的对加利福尼亚北部接近400名三年级学生的研究发现,卧室里有电视的学生要比卧室里没有电视的学生考试分数低8分左右。据此推断考试分数低的原因可能是看电视太多。故选A项。
2.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A.More time should be spent on computers.
B.Children should be forbidden from watching TV.
C.TV sets shouldn’t be allowed in children’s bedrooms.
D.Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。倒数第二段提到卧室里有电视机但家里没有电脑的孩子考试得分最低,而卧室里没有电视机但家里有电脑的孩子得分最高;最后一段的研究结论是:这项研究虽然不能证明是卧室内的电视导致了孩子考试分数低,但为孩子卧室内不应该放电视机增加了证据。据此判断不能在孩子卧室里放电视机。故选C项。
3.What would be the best title for this text?
A.Computers or Television
B.Effects of Television on Children
C.Studies on TV and College Education
D.Television and Children’s Learning Habits
答案:B
解析:主旨大意题。第一段指出,几项有关电视对孩子的影响的研究结果表明:看电视过多会对孩子的学习能力造成危害,甚至会减少孩子升入大学的机会。随后几段分别对几项具体调查研究进行陈述,并针对观看电视与考试成绩、教育水平之间的因果关系分别得出几个不同的结论。概括全文可知本文主要讲述的是电视对孩子的影响。故选B项。

B
A food additive (添加剂) is any substance that is added to food.Many people are put off by the idea of “chemicals in food”.The truth is that all food is made up of chemicals.Natural substances like milk,as well as man-made ones like drinks on sale in the market,can be described by chemical formulas.Some chemical substances are indeed harmful,but a person who refused to consume any chemicals would find nothing to eat.
The things we eat can be divided into natural and man-made substances.Some people feel that only natural foods are healthy and that all man-made ingredients are to be avoided.But many natural chemicals,found in plants and animals,are harmful when eaten,and some laboratory-made substances increase the nutritional value of food.Other chemicals have natural and man-made forms that are exactly alike:vitamin C is vitamin C,whether it comes from a test tube or from an orange.Like “chemical”,“man-made” doesn’t necessarily mean “not fit to eat”.
Food additives are used for many reasons.We add sugar and salt and other things to foods we prepare at home to make them taste better.Food producers have developed a range of additives that stabilise,thicken,harden,keep wet,keep firm,or improve the appearance of their products.Additives can make food more convenient or nutritious, give it a longer shelf life(保质期),and make it more attractive to the consumers,thus increasing the sales and profits of the producers.
Food additives are presently the centre of a storm of serious argument.Food producers have been known to use additives that have not been proved safe;some substances in common use have been proved unsafe and have been taken off the market.Many people feel there’s a risk of eating food to which anything has been added.But food additives are now regulated by the FDA of the federal government,and new additives will go through strict testing before they can be placed on the market.For most people,the chances of developing serious side effects(副作用) from the long-term use of presently approved(批准) food additives are very small.
4.From the passage we can learn that 　　　. 
A.natural foods are much safer than man-made ones
B.it is right to refuse chemicals in food
C.food additives are harmful to our health
D.all foods have chemical substances
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“Thetruthisthatallfoodismadeupofchemicals.”和最后一句“Somechemicalsubstancesareindeedharmful,butapersonwhorefusedtoconsumeanychemicalswouldfindnothingtoeat.”可知现在所有食物都含有添加剂,如果一个人拒绝食用任何形式的添加剂,他会发现自己没有东西吃。也就是说所有食物都含有化学添加剂。故选D项。
5.WhichofthefollowingisTRUEaccordingtothepassage?
A.Foodadditivescanimprovethequalityoffoodsinmanyways.
B.Toensurefoodsafety,theFDAwillstopfoodadditives.
C.Foodsfreeofadditivescankeepamuchlongershelflife.
D.Foodswithmoreadditiveshavehighernutritionalvalue.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段可知添加剂让食物的味道更好,可以改善产品的外形,更吸引消费者,更方便、更有营养。说明添加剂可以在很多方面提高食物的品质。故选A项。
6.WecaninferfromtheregulationtothefoodadditivesbytheFDAthat　　　. 
A.newadditiveswillbeapprovedmoreeasilythanbefore
B.foodwithcommon-usedadditiveswillbetakenoffthemarket
C.foodadditiveswillbeusedinasaferandmorescientificway
D.foodproducerswon’tbeallowedtousenewfoodadditives
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据文章最后两句可知食品添加剂受到联邦政府的严格控制并经过严格的测试才可上市,所以目前被批准上市的添加剂对人的副作用会很小。故选C项。
7.Accordingtothewriter,thefoodadditiveis　　　. 
A.worrying　　　　　　　B.acceptable
C.poisonous D.avoidable
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据文章最后一段前两句可知人们对食品添加剂有很多担心,但是根据最后两句可知食品添加剂受到联邦政府的严格控制并经过严格的测试,对人的副作用会很小。也就是说作者认为食品添加剂还是可以接受的。故选B项。

C
How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day?Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the norm for many people.
You probably don’t need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health — from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity in the long term,to reduced cholesterol (胆固醇) maintenance in the short term,not to mention the strain on your neck and spine.
To make matters worse,many researches show a good diet and regular exercise can’t reduce the negative effects of sitting too much.
A 2010 study of nearly 9,000 Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day,the risk of dying rose by 11 percent.Another study tracked the health of 123,000 Americans between 1992 and 2006.The death rate for men who spent six hours or more per day sitting was about 20 percent higher than for men who sat for three hours or less.
So what can we do about it?Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.
The BBC conducted a simple experiment with a group of 10 volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting.They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day.The researchers took measurements on the days when the volunteers stood and when they sat around.When they looked at the data,there were some striking differences,the BBC reported.
Blood sugar leveled off much more quickly on the days when the study subjects stood compared with the days they spent in a chair.Standing also burned more calories—about 50 calories an hour.A member said although doing exercise offers many proven benefits,our bodies also need the increase in muscle activity that standing provides.
The researchers believe that even small adjustments,like standing while talking on the phone,will help.
8.The underlined word “norm” in paragraph 1 most probably means 　　　. 
A.standard answer
B.cause
C.excuse
D.reasonable explanation
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。前面的“Howmanyhoursdoyouspendsittinginachaireveryday?”是提出的问题,后面这句是做出的回答,本句话的意思为“对很多人来说,标准答案就是上班八小时再加上下班后在电视机前度过的三小时”。
9.What bad effect does sitting too much have?
A.A low risk of heart disease.
B.Becoming too fat.
C.Balanced cholesterol maintenance.
D.Benefiting your neck and spine.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。由第二段内容可知,长期来看,久坐会增加心脏病发病率并导致肥胖;短期来说,则不利于对胆固醇水平的维护;更不用说它会压迫颈椎和脊椎这点了。
10.What’s the main idea of paragraph 4?
A.Sitting is killing us.
B.We should have a good diet.
C.Watching TV does us no good.
D.Women have higher death rate than men.
答案:A
解析:段落大意题。通过阅读第四段可知,每天多看一小时电视,死亡风险就会增加11%;每天有6小时或更长时间坐着的男性,其死亡率比每天只有3小时或更少时间坐着的男性高出20%。换句话说,我们正在“坐以待毙”。
11.What is the purpose of the experiment in the text?
A.To help the 10 volunteers to lose weight.
B.To find out the difference between standing and sitting.
C.To prove the benefit of standing.
D.To teach us how to control blood sugar.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。由倒数第二段内容可知,站立对人们很有好处。

D
Developing healthy eating habits starts from childhood,therefore it is important for parents to teach and provide children with a healthy diet.DPHSS administrator of the Bureau of Nutrition Services,Charlie Morris told KUAMNews,“A healthy diet for a child consists of a lot of fruit and vegetables in the diet limiting the amount of simple sugars in the diet and high fat food and highly processed(加工的) food.”
This means staying away as much as possible from food such as chips,cookies,candies and sugary drinks,as all children need to have meals which involve a well-balanced diet.Community nutritionist(营养学家) Thelma Romoso said,“The fruit,the vegetable,the grain,the protein,and also the milk,the diary product,so for the fruits it’s easy for a mother to go into the two plus three concept of fruit and vegetables or five a day.”
This concept means that there are at least two servings of fruit a day,three servings of vegetables a day which can be served for lunch and dinner.As for protein parents can make a variety of dishes from chicken,beef,fish or even dried beans to make sure the child gets three servings a day.
Morris said that the child’s hunger level controls how much is eaten and the parent controls what and when the meal is offered,saying,“Mum needs to ensure that the food offered is good for the child to eat and throughout the day depending on how active they are,snacks are not a bad thing,so the mum should offer good kinds of snacks.”
When it comes to preparing your child’s lunch and snacks for school,make sure to keep in mind that the food you provide should not only be a source of energy but also be nutritionally beneficial such as fresh fruits,and whole grain bread.But parents must be sure to remember that a good nutritional diet must be balanced with physical activity,namely it is important that children get outside and run around and play and get activity in addition to eating a good diet.
12.What does the author intend to tell us in the text?
A.Choose healthy food and snacks for your child.
B.Fruit and vegetables are good for your child.
C.Take steps to provide a good lunch for your child.
D.Make various and delicious dishes for your child.
答案:A
解析:主旨大意题。通读全文,结合文章第一段中的“Developinghealthyeatinghabitsstartsfromchildhood,thereforeitisimportantforparentstoteachandprovidechildrenwithahealthydiet.”可知,作者想要告诉我们要为孩子提供健康的饮食。 故选A项。

B.highlyprocessedfoodshouldbereducedindailylife
C.sugarsandhighfatexistinfewkindsoffood
D.activechildrenprefermoreandmoresnacks
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段的最后一句可知孩子的健康饮食应包含许多水果和蔬菜,并限制简单的糖用量和高脂肪和高精度加工的食品。由此判断B项切题。
14.WhichisNOTtruewhenpreparingyourchild’sfoodforschool?
A.Thefoodmustprovideenergyaswellasnutrition.
B.Physicalexerciseisasimportantasagooddiet.
C.Runningandplayingwheneatingisbeneficial.
D.Fruitandwholegrainfoodsshouldbeincluded.
答案:C

A.freshfruitareoftenignoredbychildren
B.agoodnutritionaldietmaycosttoomuch
C.choosinghealthyfoodislinkedwithincome
D.parentsplayanimportantroleinchildren’sdiet
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第一句话可知,养成健康的饮食习惯始于儿童时期,因此,父母必须教导孩子并为他们提供健康的饮食。并根据最后一段最后一句,“但是父母必须记住,良好的营养饮食必须与体育活动相均衡,也就是说,孩子们出去跑步是很重要的”。由此可知父母在孩子的饮食方面起着重要的作用。故选D项。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you think your kids aren’t eating enough fruit,you may be right.How can you get your kids to eat more fruits?Telling a child its benefits won’t succeed probably.And,the more you ask your children to eat something,the more they’ll refuse it.　16　 
Eattogether.Eat fruit in front of your kids and they’re more likely to want to eat.Krisena Borenstein,a mother of two children aged three and four,has seen this type of role-modeling work.
Keeptrying.Many children reject new foods because they’re afraid of them,not because they don’t like the taste.　17　 You may need to present a new fruit 10 times or more before they’ll accept it. 
Slicefruit.　18　 When Borenstein asks her children if they want an apple,they’ll often say “No”.But when she cuts it up,they’ll eat it. 
　19　 While it’s not as exciting as picking fruit off a tree,your children can still take part in the picking process at the market.Take the kids to the farmers’ market,where they can taste fruit and choose what they want to bring home.Having them take part makes them more excited about eating it. 
Mixitup.　20　 Experiment with frozen,freeze-dried,canned,fresh and dried fruit,as well as 100 percent juice. 
A.Don’t give up!
B.Focus on the taste.
C.Let them pick their own fruit.
D.Offer fruit in a variety of forms and shapes.
E.They might start to show off the fruit after trying it.
F.Your kids may be more likely to want sliced fruit than whole fruit.
G.Here’re some skills you can use to guide them without saying a word.

Dear Jack, 
According to the chart,alcohol use has a bad influence on teenagers’ schoolwork.
49.2% of heavy drinkers are poor at their schoolwork while more than half of the heavy drinkers often cut classes or skip school.As for binge drinkers who only drink alcohol once in a while,the percentage is a little lower but still much higher than that of non-drinkers,of whom only 27.5% are poor at their schoolwork and 9.9% are cutting classes or skipping school.
Alcohol use not only slows down the development of teenagers’ brains but also affects their ability to control themselves.They are more likely to do wrong things after drinking,so alcohol use for teenagers should be banned.
Yours,
Li Hua 
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写词数应为150左右。
Mrs Brown,a 56-year-old woman,lived by herself in a trailer park near Clovis.She spent every single minute with Clyde,her 7-year-old cat.He brought much fun to her.In fact,she didn’t know how she could go on without him.One day she went shopping with him.Unfortunately,she had her lost because of her carelessness.The rest of the day,she wandered in the mall looking for him but in vain.
At last she had to call the police.“My baby has been missing,and I want him back so badly,” said Mrs Brown.
When the policeman asked her to describe Clyde,she told him that Clyde had beautiful green eyes,had all his teeth but was missing half of his left ear,and was seven years old and completely white.She then told the officer that Clyde was about a foot high.
A bell went off.“Is Clyde your child or your pet?”the officer doubtfully asked.“Well,he’s my cat,of course,”Mrs Brown replied.“Lady,you’re supposed to report missing PERSONS,not missing CATS,”said the angry policeman.“Well,who can I report this to?” she asked.“You can’t.You have to ask around your neighbourhood or put up posters,” replied the officer.
Mrs Brown figured that a billboard(广告牌)would work a lot better than a piece of paper on a telephone pole.There happened to be an empty billboard at the end of her street just off the interstate highway.The billboard had a phone number on it.

Shecalledthatnumberinnotime.She told them about her lost cat and asked whether she could use the billboard to find her cat.She was more than pleased and offered them some details of the cat including a picture of it.The next day,a notice of a lost cat appeared on the billboard with Mrs Brown’s address on it.
Aweeklater,MrsBrownnoticedhercatwaitingoutofhergatewithanoteonhisneck.Mrs Brown picked up the cat and put it to her heart,murmuring:“Oh dear,where have you been?”She put the note close to her eyes.It read:“Sorry to keep your cat for a week,but I had no idea where to return him.I hope you should take better care of him in the future.” Tears of regrets rolled down her cheeks at the words.She held the cat tighter and closer to her heart.
