【題目】Every hour spent watching TV, DVDs and videos as an adult reduces life by almost 22 minutes, a study suggests. And watching TV for an average of six hours a day can cut short your life by five years.

The researchers say they only want to tell people how dangerous watching TV for long time is. And they want to find out the relationship between watching TV and life.

Writing in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, they concluded(得出結(jié)論): TV watching time may have something to do with a loss of life.

The researchers, from the University of Queensland, used information from the Australian illnesses and lifestyle study, together with population and death rate data. But they said, “While we used Australian data, the effects in other countries are likely to be comparable(可比較的). In the UK, the average amount of time spent watching TV is four hours a day compared with five hours in the United States.

Some American researchers said that watching TV for long time can lead premature(過早的)death. Other study suggests that sitting for long can cause overweight and it can also make people take more junk foods.

England’s Chief Medical Officer, Sally Davies, says, “Physical activity offers huge benefits. We hope these studies will help more people realize that there are many ways to get exercise.” Her study shows that exercising for just 15 minutes a day can increase your life by up to three years.

Stop watching TV, sit up and take more exercise!

【解析】

文章介紹了一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn):看電視等于慢性自殺,每天平均看六小時(shí)電視可以縮短壽命五年,希望人們別看電視,坐起來,多鍛煉!

1數(shù)字計(jì)算題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“And watching TV for an average of six hours a day can cut short your life by five years.”每天平均看六小時(shí)電視可以縮短你的壽命五年。那么一周就是42個(gè)小時(shí),故答案為B。

2推理判斷題。由第二段第一句“The researchers say they only want to tell people how dangerous watching TV for long time is.”研究人員說,他們只想告訴人們長(zhǎng)時(shí)間看電視有多危險(xiǎn)。通過這句話我們可以知道研究人員希望公眾知道看電視的危險(xiǎn)性。故答案選D。

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中句子“While we used Australian data, the effects in other countries are likely to be comparable(可比較的)”可知,這些研究數(shù)據(jù)來自澳大利亞,故答案選C。

4詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)文中句子“Other study suggests that sitting for long can cause overweight and it can also make people take more junk foods. 其他研究表明長(zhǎng)期坐著也會(huì)讓人們吃更多的垃圾食品。因此會(huì)導(dǎo)致人超重,故答案為C。

5細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的句子England’s Chief Medical Officer, Sally Davies, says, “Physical activity offers huge benefits. Her study shows that exercising for just 15 minutes a day can increase your life by up to three years. Sally Davies的研究表明每天僅僅鍛煉15分鐘就能使你的生命延長(zhǎng)最多三年。由此可知,Sally Davies建議我們盡可能多地鍛煉身體。答案為A。

本文說明了長(zhǎng)時(shí)間久坐看電視對(duì)身體不好。要注意文章中的細(xì)節(jié)的理解。推斷題測(cè)試考生在閱讀基礎(chǔ)上的邏輯推理能力,要求考生根據(jù)文章所述事件的邏輯關(guān)系,對(duì)未說明的趨勢(shì)或結(jié)局做出合理的推斷;或根據(jù)作者所闡述的觀點(diǎn)理論,對(duì)文章未涉及的現(xiàn)象、事例給以解釋?忌紫纫屑(xì)閱讀短文,完整了解信息,準(zhǔn)確把握作者觀點(diǎn)。

【題目】Today there are 6.4 billion people on the earth. By the year 2050, there may be 12.5 billion. There are a lot of people to feed. We need more and more food.

One way to produce more food is growing stronger plants. For thousands of years, farmers have made plants better. Every season, they pick the best plants for the next season. But it works very slowly. Since 1983, scientists have been able to change plants more quickly by changing their genetic(遺傳的) material. Foods from plants grown in this way are called genetically modified(改變的) foods, or GM foods.

By changing the genetic material of a plant, it is possible to make new plants. They make plants which are strong against plant diseases. They can also help prevent human diseases; a kind of rice is being prepared, for example, which stops people becoming blind.

Rich countries produce GM foods because they are easy to grow and bring in more money. Poor countries are interested in them because they help produce more food.

GM plants are not natural. No one knows how good or bad they are. There are strong feelings against them, because they are unnatural. They may feed people, then hurt them or their children later. But both rich and poor countries are interested in their use, and they are not going to go away. In 2050, we may think differently about them.

1GM foods are made by________.

A. farmers B. workers

C. scientists D. plants

2What are the good things about GM foods?

A. They make plants strong against diseases.

B. They are unnatural.

C. They can help prevent human diseases.

D. Both A and C.

3GM foods________.

A. are a quick way to produce food

B. are grown in the wild

C. .a(chǎn)re safe

D. are grown only in rich countries

4Why do some people not like GM foods?

A. They are not useful. B. They are not helpful.

C. They are not natural. D. They are not cheap.

5From the passage we know that ________.

A. GM foods will disappear one day in the future

B. GM foods will not disappear in the future

C. people will not be interested in GM foods

D. people will have to stop using GM foods
