(2015年山西太原五中月考)
Deborah Cohen is a senior natural scientist at the Rand Corp and the author of the book A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind the Obesity Epidemic and How We Can End It. According to the book, there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity.
1. If you're obese, blame your genes.
Obesity rates have increased. Yet, between 1980 and 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubled—too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible.
At restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calorie than what we prepare at home, so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.
2. If you're obese, you lack self-control.
Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor dietary choices. Our world has become so rich in temptation that we can be led to consume too much in ways we can't understand. Even the most vigilant(警覺的) people may not be up to the task of controlling themselves.
3. Lack of access to fresh fruits and vegetables is responsible for obesity.
Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of Americans live in the “ food deserts”, about 65 percent of the nation's population is overweight or obese. For most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the choices we make in supermarkets.
4. The problem is not that we eat too much, but that we don't exercise.
Michelle Obama's “Let's Move” campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. But there was no significant decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s. In fact, although a drop in work-related physical activity may account for up to 100 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased. The problem is that we eat too much.
1. The author mentioned Deborah Cohen's book in Paragraph 1 to .
A. Introduce the topic
B. Draw readers' attention
C. Introduce the author of the book
D. Advertise the book
2. What is the relationship between obesity and the place where you eat?
A. The less you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have
B. The less you eat at home, the lower rates of obesity you have.
C. The more you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have.
D. The more you eat at home, the higher rates of obesity you have.
3. What's the best title of this passage?
A. Four misunderstandings of obesity
B. Four rules to help you avoid obesity
C. Obesity leads to a big fat crisis
D. Lacking self-control leads to obesity
語篇解讀
本文通過一本書告訴我們關(guān)于肥胖的四個誤區(qū)。
1. A 細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第一段According to the book, there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity.可知，根據(jù)這本書有許多關(guān)于肥胖的誤區(qū) ，下面舉了四個誤區(qū)，故選A項。
2. C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一個誤區(qū)中的because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home ,so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.可知，因為餐館的菜的熱量比家里的菜的熱量高很多，因此在餐館吃的次數(shù)越多，獲得的熱量就越高，故選C項。
3. A 主旨大意題。本文講述通過一本書，提到關(guān)于肥胖的四個誤區(qū)，故選A項。
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中，選出最佳選項。
(Examinations Exert a Pernicious Influence on Education)
? ? ?We might marvel at the progress made in every field of study, but the methods of testing a person’s knowledge and ability remain as primitive as ever they were. It really is extraordinary that after all these years, educationists have still failed to device anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. For all the pious claim that examinations text what you know, it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the knack of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability and aptitude.
? ? ?As anxiety-makers, examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends on them. They are the mark of success of failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. It doesn’t matter that you weren’t feeling very well, or that your mother died. Little things like that don’t count: the exam goes on. No one can give of his best when he is in mortal terror, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do. The moment a child begins school, he enters a world of vicious competition where success and failure are clearly defined and measured. Can we wonder at the increasing number of ‘drop-outs’: young people who are written off as utter failures before they have even embarked on a career? Can we be surprised at the suicide rate among students?
? ? ?A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system does anything but that. What has to be learnt is rigidly laid down by a syllabus, so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the standards of teaching, for they deprive the teacher of all freedoms. Teachers themselves are often judged by examination results and instead of teaching their subjects, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques which they despise. The most successful candidates are not always the best educated; they are the best trained in the technique of working under duress.
? ? ?The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous examiner. Examiners are only human. They get tired and hungry; they make mistakes. Yet they have to mark stacks of hastily scrawled scripts in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates. And their word carries weight. After a judge’s decision you have the right of appeal, but not after an examiner’s. There must surely be many simpler and more effective ways of assessing a person’s true abilities. Is it cynical to suggest that examinations are merely a profitable business for the institutions that run them? This is what it boils down to in the last analysis. The best comment on the system is this illiterate message recently scrawled on a wall: ‘I were a teenage drop-out and now I are a teenage millionaire.’

[A] to encourage students to read widely.
to train students to think on their own.
[C] to teach students how to tackle exams.
[D] to master his fate.

寫作方法與文章大意
? ? ?這是一篇類似分類寫作的文章。羅列了考試種種惡果。作者首先指出考試難以測定人的真正能力和水平，反而是適得其反。二是考試是憂慮的制造者，因為它決定了人的成敗命運。三是考試促使學(xué)校進行應(yīng)試技巧教育，否定了教會人獨立思考、擴大視野。四是教師或者說測試人又累又餓，犯錯誤，還得在限定時間披閱成堆的試卷，他們的壓力和考試者一樣很大，而他們的話――分?jǐn)?shù)有份量，審判官的裁決，你有權(quán)上訴，而他們的裁決――一筆定終身。
? ? ?最后引用“輟學(xué)者成為百萬富翁”來點明測試這種形式對教育的壞影響。
答案詳解
1. ? ? ?A 考試對教育具有有害的影響。文章第一段就點明：考試是測試記憶的好方法，是測試在巨大壓力下快速工作的技巧的好方法，卻測不出一個人的真正能力和水平。第三段集中指出：考試不是促進學(xué)生廣泛閱讀，反而限制其閱讀；考試不能使學(xué)生追求更多的知識，而是誘導(dǎo)學(xué)生進行應(yīng)付考試的突擊式學(xué)習(xí)。他們降低了教學(xué)水平，因為他們剝奪了老師的一切自由。常常以考試結(jié)果而不是所教課程來評定老師，是他們不得不以他們所輕視的考試技巧來培訓(xùn)學(xué)生。第二段和第四段也涉及其后果。
B.考試無效。這是考試后果的一個方面。C.考試對教育機構(gòu)有利。這也是一個方面。D.考試對學(xué)生是一種負(fù)擔(dān)。
2. ? ? ?C 批評的。第一段中作者明確指出，考試方法依舊，不能測出人的能力和水平。第二段點名，這種無用的考試決定人生的成敗。第三段說考試最成功的考試者經(jīng)常不是最佳的受教育者，他們是在脅迫下最佳獲得考試技巧者，而好的教育應(yīng)能培養(yǎng)人的獨立思考。第四段涉及閱卷者又累又餓，常犯錯誤，不得不在限定時間披閱一大堆匆忙中七扭八歪寫出的卷子。最后一句“我過去是一個是來歲的輟學(xué)者，現(xiàn)在我是一個年輕的百萬富翁”畫龍點睛地指出，考試指揮下的教育的失敗。這一切都說明作者對考試的批評態(tài)度。
A.嫌惡，厭惡。此答案從意義上說是對的。但語法不通，因為這是個東西，而is后要求是名詞或形容詞。B.贊成。D.漠不關(guān)心的。
3. ? ? ?C 考試。答案在第二段，考試是最終憂慮制造者，那是因為許多事情取決于考試：它們是我們社會中成功或失敗的標(biāo)志。你的未來可能全取決于這決定性的一天。
A.教育。B.教育機構(gòu)。D.學(xué)生自己。
4. ? ? ?B 培養(yǎng)學(xué)生進行獨立思考。第三段第一句話點明：好的教育應(yīng)該是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生自己獨立思考。
A.鼓勵學(xué)生廣泛閱讀。教學(xué)生如何應(yīng)考。C.教學(xué)生如何應(yīng)考。D.掌握自己命運。
5. ? ? ?B 作對比，答案在最后一段倒數(shù)第二句“審判官裁決后，你有權(quán)力上訴，而披閱考卷人給分后，學(xué)生可沒有上訴權(quán)”后面又談及“一想到考試只對進行考試的機構(gòu)有禮，未免太自私了。這酒是最終分析歸納的東西?！彼宰髡吆粲酰啥ㄟ€有許多更簡便，更有效的評估人真正能力的方法。
A.給出一個例子。C.表示老師是由考試結(jié)果評定好壞。這是第三段講的不分內(nèi)容，教師他們自己常由考試結(jié)果而不是所教課程優(yōu)劣來評定。所以他們不得不對學(xué)生進行應(yīng)試技巧教育，降低教學(xué)水平。D.表明審判官裁決更有效。
閱讀理解。閱讀下列短文, 從給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。
FRIDAY, Dec．5, 2008—College students who think all-night study sessions will help them remember facts might want to get some sleep instead．That's the message from a new study that finds that as you sleep, the mind consolidates the things you learn during the day．
Study participants who learned how to play a video game in the morning or evening did a better job the next day after a night's rest, apparently because their brains were actively absorbing what they'd learned as they slept．
The finding shows "that sleep is not just a passive state when no information is coming in," said Howard Nusbaum, a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago．
For the study, the researchers recruited 200 college students．Most of them weren't very familiar with playing video games．Some of the participants learned how to play the games in the morning, while others learned in the evening．The researchers then tested the subjects on the video games 12 hours later and 24 hours later．
Those who took part in the morning training sessions showed an average eight-percentage-point improvement in their performance immediately after training．They performed more poorly—scoring four percentage points better—12 hours later．But they scored 10 percentage points better the next morning．
"If we train you in the morning and come back at the end of the day, you forget some of what you learned," Nusbaum said．"But if you sleep after that, it restores some of what you learned．"
The students who took part in the evening training sessions performed better the next morning after sleeping, than they did after being trained．
The role that dreams play in the learning process—if any—isn't clear．But some dreams could serve as a kind of practice for the brain, Nusbaum said．"If you play a video game a lot, and you're playing in your dreams, maybe that could help you learn．"
Jerry Siegel, professor at the Center for Sleep Research at the University of Calfornia, Los Angeles, said going without sleep hurts performance, but he's not convinced that sleep itself actively contributes to learning．
"If you take a break for a few hours, it can easily be shown that learning did occur, because performance is better at the start of a new learning session than it was at the end of the initial session," he said．"No sleep needs to occur for this to happen．"
Still, Siegel suggested that sleep before learning a skill is crucial．"For long-term retention, it is more important to be well rested and therefore attentive when you are doing the learning than afterwards," he said．"It is even better if you don't have to choose and get your natural amounts of sleep every day．"
9 What does the underlined word ‘want’ （in Paragraph 1） mean?
A．lack B．wish C．desire D．need
10 What is mainly talked about in this text?
A．The effect of video games on learning
B．The relation between sleep and learning．
C．The role of dreams in the learning process
D．The difference between morning and evening trainings．
11 What would be the best title for the text?
A．Sleep strengthens learning． B．Dreams clearly help learning．
C．A break before learning is better． D．Video games improve performance．
12 Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Training in the morning showed better results at once．
B．Learning won’t occur during sleeping without dreams．．
C．Sleeping well helps to absorb what one learned
D．Studying all night helps to remember more facts．
