12.Michelle Obama has just started a campaign against childhood obesity(肥胖)with the admission that she put her girls Malia and Sasha on a diet because they were getting fat.Clearly,childhood obesity must be solved and urgently.But is it a good idea for mothers to put their daughters on diets?
Studies show that the more children diet,the more likely they are to become obese as adults.Research also shows that girls are highly influenced by their mothers when it comes to eating habits and body image.
This was the case for Carly,40,who blames her mother for her lifelong struggle with weight."My mother was on a diet the whole time 1 was growing up,"she says."And she put me on my first diet when 1 was 10.I lost puppy fat,gained her approval and never ate normally  again,America's First Lady clearly has a vital healthy eating message to.convey.But could this be damaging for Malia and Sasha?Could they develop eating disorders because of it?
"It's wrong just to blame mothers for their daughters'eating disorders,"says Susan Ringwood,chief executive of the eating disorders charity,Beat."There is a genetic(基因的)component to eating disorders."However,"We do know that parents have a very strong influ.ence over a child's eating.It's important to realize that you are your daughter's role model.Girls idolize the ir mothers."says Ringwood.
"Nofoodshould ever be‘good'or‘bad',"Ringwood says.Instead,"You have to make it clear that food is a sociable,healthy and fun part of life,not something to be feared."
"Talk to her about body image,"Ringwood says."Talk about how curves are an important and exciting part of being a woman.Show her that anorexic(厭食的)fashion models are not sexy,but i11.The pressure on girls today is immense,"she says."But don't forget that you are the authoritative voice,too."

分析 本文討論的是有關(guān)肥胖的問(wèn)題,研究表明孩子們?cè)焦?jié)食,成年后越可能肥胖,研究還表明女孩們?cè)陲嬍沉?xí)慣及體型方面受母親影響很大.

解答 AADAD
66.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.由文章第一句Michelle Obama has just started a campaign against childhood obesity(肥胖)可知,奧巴馬組織這一活動(dòng)是為了解決全國(guó)兒童的肥胖問(wèn)題.
67.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.這個(gè)例子是為了論證第二段的觀點(diǎn),即girls are highly influenced by their mothers.由此可知,母親對(duì)女兒的飲食習(xí)慣有很大的影響.
68.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.由倒數(shù)第三段的There is a genetic(基因的)component to eating disorders可知,飲食紊亂和基因組成有關(guān)系.
    69.A 主旨大意題  根據(jù)Studies show that the more children diet,the more likely they are to become obese as adults.Research also shows that girls are highly influenced by their mothers when it comes to eating habits and body image.可知,研究表明孩子們?cè)焦?jié)食,成年后越可能肥胖,研究還表明女孩們?cè)陲嬍沉?xí)慣及體型方面受母親影響很大,故答案為A

70.D 推理判斷題.文章第二段的…the more children diet,the more likely they are to become obese as adults表明作者也反對(duì)兒童的飲食習(xí)慣.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 1、要想做好科普英語(yǔ)閱讀理解題,同學(xué)們就要注意平時(shí)多讀科普知識(shí)類文章,學(xué)習(xí)科普知識(shí),積累常見的科普詞匯,從根本上提高科普英語(yǔ)的閱讀能力.
2、要熟悉科普類文章的結(jié)構(gòu)特點(diǎn).科普類文章一般由標(biāo)題(Head line),導(dǎo)語(yǔ)(Introduction),背景(Back ground),主體(Main body)和結(jié)尾(End)五部分構(gòu)成.標(biāo)題是文章中心思想高度而又精辟的概括,但根據(jù)歷年的高考情況來(lái)看,這類閱讀理解材料一般不給標(biāo)題,而要同學(xué)們選擇標(biāo)題.導(dǎo)語(yǔ)一般位于整篇文章的首段.背景交待一個(gè)事實(shí)的起因.主體則對(duì)導(dǎo)語(yǔ)概括的事實(shí)進(jìn)行詳細(xì)敘述,這一部分命題往往最多,因此,閱讀時(shí),同學(xué)們要把這部分作為重點(diǎn).結(jié)尾往往也是中心思想的概括,并與導(dǎo)語(yǔ)相呼應(yīng),命題者常在此要設(shè)計(jì)一道推理判斷題.  
3、在進(jìn)行推理判斷時(shí),同學(xué)們一定要以閱讀材料所提供的科學(xué)事實(shí)為依據(jù),同時(shí)所得出的結(jié)論還應(yīng)符合基本的科普常識(shí).

2.One summer on my way to New Orleans,I passed a young man standing by the roadside,with his thumb out for a lift.I drove right by him.Now you're a fool for helping."I don't want to get involved"seems to have become a national motto.
Several days later I was thinking about the hitchhiker,about how I didn't even move my foot off the accelerator(加速踏板)for him.
"Does anyone stop any more?"I wondered.Blanche Dubois once said:"I have always depended on the kindness of strangers."Was that possible these days?One way to test this would be for a person to journey across the US without any money,just relying on the others'good will.What would happen?
The idea interested me.So I decided to really do it.Without a penny,for six weeks I hitched 82rides and covered 4,223miles across 14states.I would only accept offers of rides,food and places to sleep.
I found people were generally  compassionate.Hearing I had no money and would accept none,people bought me food and gave me necessities.Those who had the least to give often gave the most.In Nebraska,a house painter named Mike noted the freezing weather and gave me a big army-style jacket.A lumber-mill worker in Michigan named Tim invited me to a simple dinner with his family in their shabby house.Then he offered me a tent.
I was treated kindly everywhere I went,amazed by people's readiness to help a stranger and feeling grateful to all the warm-hearted people.My faith in ordinary folks was renewed.It turns out you can still depend on the kindness of strangers.

56.How did the author felt days after he refused to give the young man a ride?A
A.Guilty.  B.Worried.   C.Confused.  D.Satisfied.
57.Why did the author decide to go on a hitchhiking journey without any money?A
A.To test his doubts about people's kindness.
B.To experience the fun of hitchhiking.
C.To call for trust and love among people.
D.To have a cool and romantic journey.
58.The underlined word"compassionate"in Paragraph 5most probably meansB.
A.reliable   B.warm-hearted  C.loyal   D.responsible
59.During the author's journey,B.
A.his puzzle about people strengthened
B.he found poor people more eager to help
C.he learned many survival skills

3.As a boy growing up in India,I had longed to travel abroad.I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s,with great interest.
My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe,where my father was to attend a meeting.We planned to travel to Belgium,Netherlands and West Germany.
I have clear memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad.I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand,during the flight to Frankfurt.We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew (工作人員).The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable,even for someone like me,who is especially afraid of flying.
After spending almost two weeks in Europe,we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport,for our return flight.What a journey that was!All along the Rhine (萊茵河),it was simply an unforgettable experience.I had a  sombre feeling on the flight back to Mumbai as it marked the end of a wonderful vacation,but the Lufthansa crew members were able to change it into a most enjoyable experience yet again,with the quality of their service.
Being the first airline to take me abroad,Lufthansa will always hold a special place in my heart.Even today,I continue to enjoy flights on Lufthansa and simply cannot dream of choosing any other airline.Flying,in general,for me,has always been a terrible and painful experience.Flying on Lufthansa,however,is something I always have and always will look forward to.

36.Which country does the author live in now?A
A.India.  B.Canada.  C.Belgium.  D.Germany.
37.What made the author so interested in traveling abroad?D

I was tall and she was small.My thick black hair had been recently cut short into an untidy style.Her natural blonde hair flowed to her waist and looked great.I was 12 and one of the oldest in the class while she was 11 and the youngest.I was awkward and shy.She wasn't.I couldn't stand her,considering her my enemy.But she liked me and wanted to be friends.

When we got into the room she shared with her sister,she took out a big case of Barbies,which was my next surprise.I had never played with them.We sat on the floor,laughing as we made up crazy stories about the Barbies.We found out that we both wanted to be writers when we were older and both had wild imaginations.We had a great day that afternoon.

7.Keesh lived at the North Pole a long time ago.He lived near the edge of the polar sea.He was a bright thirteen-year-old boy with a strong,healthy body.His father was a brave man who had died during a food shortage in the village.His father tried to save the lives of his people by fighting a giant polar bear.Keesh's father was crushed to death during the struggle.But he killed the bear,and the meat from the bear kept the people from starving.
     Keesh was his only son,and he lived alone with his mother.But people are forgetful,and they soon forgot how Keesh's father had saved their lives.And since Keesh was only a boy and his mother was a woman and not a warrior(勇士),they were forced to live in the smallest and poorest igloo in the village.
     One night there was a council meeting in the large igloo of Klosh-Kwan,who was the chief.At that meeting Keesh showed how much courage he possessed.He rose to his feet and waited for silence.Then,with the dignity(尊嚴(yán))of an older man,he said,"It is true that my mother and I are given meat to eat.But the meat is always old and tough,filled with bones,and difficult to eat."
     The hunters-both the young and the old-were shocked to hear a child speak to them that way.But Keesh went on steadily,"Because my father,Bok,was a great hunter,I can speak these words.You know that Bok brought home more meat than any hunter in the village.The oldest woman,the weakest old man,received a fair share."
     Keesh waited calmly until the shouting died down."My mother has no one except me,and therefore I must speak.My father put his life in danger and died,to provide food for this village.It is only right that I,his son and his wife should have enough good meat as long as there is plenty of good meat in this village.I,Keesh,the son of Bok,have spoken."
     He sat down.He could hear angry murmuring all around him.Some men began to shout at Keesh.They ordered him to leave.They threatened to punish him by not giving him any food at all.Keesh's eyes flashed and the blood pounded under his skin.In the midst of the noise and the uproar,he jumped to his feet.
"Listen to me,you men!"he shouted."I shall never speak in this council again-not until you come to invite me to speak.My father was a great hunter,and so will I be."
     They laughed at Keesh and followed him out of the igloo,shouting at him.But Keesh said nothing more.He walked away with his head raised,looking neither to the left nor the right….
---Based on a story by Jack London
