Do
you

that
junk
food
isn't
healthy
Of
course
you
do!
Do
you
eat
it
anyway
Of
course
you
do!
But
a
new
study
shows
teaching
adolescents
about
the
ways
food
companies
fool
then
into
thinking
junk
food
is
cool
can
encourage
kids
to
fight
back-by
eating
healthier.
The
pull
of
junk
food
can
be
super-strong.
It's
designed
to
be
tasty,
which
makes
eating
well
one
of
the
great
health
challenges
of
our
time.
Everyone
from
doctors
to
the
government
has
been
trying
to
handle
it.
Yet
we
keep
eating
junk
food.
Professor
Christopher
Bryan
says,
"Food
companies
want
you
to
want
junk
food.
"
They
spend
millions
of
dollars
coming
up
with
new
ways
to
promote
junk
food
consumption.
They
hire
scientists
to
make
new
junk
food
almost
irresistible.
They
might
do
this,
for
example,
by
adding
more
sugar.
Rats
fed
junk
food
for
six
weeks
will
even
walk
across
a
floor
that
gives
them
electric
shocks
just
to
get
more
of
such
food.
Foods
ads
often
make
unhealthy
junk
food
seem
healthy
by
featuring
professional
athletes,
fit-looking
pop
stars
and
smiling,
active
teens.
"We
thought
when
the
students
learned
this,
it
would
matter
to
them.
"
Bryan
says.
He
worked
with
8th
graders
at
a
Texas
school.
Half
of
them
got
a
lesson
Bryan
created.
It
focused
on
the
ways
junk
food
is
advertised,
or
marketed.
A
second
group
received
lessons
that
focused
on
health.
These
lessons
informed
students
junk
food
is
bad,
and
that
foods
like
apples
or
carrots
are
a
better
choice.
The
students
learned
a
bad
diet
can
lead
to
major
weight
gain,
and
that
being
overweight
puts
people
at
risk
for
serious
diseases.
They
also
learned
how
eating
well
now
can
keep
you
healthy
when
you're
older.
After
the
lessons,
the
kids
in
both
groups
were
asked
how
they
felt
about
junk
food.
Most
didn't
have
positive
feelings
about
these
unhealthy
foods.
26．Why

A．To

【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究表明：让青少年了解食品公司的推销方式比单纯告诉他们垃圾食品的危害更能让他们选择健康的饮食。
26．【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。通读全文内容可以得知本文介绍了一项研究：让青少年了解食品公司的推销方式比单纯告诉他们垃圾食品的危害更能让他们选择健康的饮食。可以推断出，文章第一段中提及那两个问题“Do
you
know
that
junk
food
isn’t
healthy
(你知道垃圾食品不健康吗？)”和“Do
you
eat
it
anyway
(你仍然还吃垃圾食品？)”
是为了引出本文要讨论的话题。故选D项。
27．【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中“It’s
designed
to
be
tasty,
which
makes
eating
well
one
of
the
great
health
challenges
of
our
time.
Everyone
from
doctors
to
the
government
has
been
trying
to
handle
it.(垃圾食品很美味，这使吃得好成为一个巨大的健康挑战，从医生到政府每一个人都一直在努力应对这一挑战。)”可知，对医生而言，让人们吃得健康依然是一个巨大的健康挑战。故选B项。
28．【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中先提到“食品公司想要消费者想吃垃圾食品”，紧接着说到“它们（食品公司)花巨资想办法推广垃圾食品，它们聘请科学家制作新的垃圾食品，使人们几乎无法抗拒”，接着还举例说“它们可能会往垃圾食品中添加更多的糖”。由此可以推断，作者在本段主要是想告诉读者食品公司是如何想方设法让人们去吃垃圾食品的。故选C项。
29．【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段主要介绍Bryan给德克萨斯州的一所学校的八年级学生们上的课，再根据文章最后一段“After
the
lessons,
the
kids
in
both
groups
were
asked
how
they
felt
about
junk
food.
Most
didn’t
have
positive
feelings
about
these
unhealthy
foods.”可知，课后当这些孩子被问及他们对垃圾食品的看法时，大多数人对这些不健康的食品都不持正面的看法。由此可以推断，Bryan的课是有效的。故选C项。
Before
the
1830s,most
newspapers
were
sold
through
annual
subscriptions
in
America,
usually
$8
to
$10
a
year.
Today
$8
or
$10
seems
a
small
amount
of
money,
but
at
that
time
these
amounts
were
forbidding
to
most
citizens.
Accordingly,
newspapers
were
read
almost
only
by
rich
people
in
politics
or
the
trades.
In
addition,
most
newspapers
had
little
in
them
that
would
appeal
to
a
mass
audience.
They
were
dull
and
visually
forbidding.
But
the
revolution
that
was
taking
place
in
the
1830s
would
change
all
that.
The
trend,
then,
was
toward
the
"penny
paper"—
a
term
referring
to
papers
made
widely
available
to
the
public.
It
meant
any
inexpensive
newspaper;
perhaps
more
importantly
it
meant
newspapers
that
could
be
bought
in
single
copies
on
the
street.
This
development
did
not
take
place
overnight.
It
had
been
possible(but
not
easy)to
buy
single
copies
of
newspapers
before
1830,but
this
usually
meant
the
reader
had
to
go
down
to
the
printer's
office
to
purchase
a
copy.
Street
sales
were
almost
unknown.
However,
within
a
few
years,
street
sales
of
newspapers
would
be
commonplace
in
eastern
cities.
At
first
the
price
of
single
copies
was
seldom
a
penny—usually
two
or
three
cents
was
charged
—and
some
of
the
older
well-known
papers
charged
five
or
six
cents.
But
the
phrase
"penny
paper
"
caught
the
public's
fancy,
and
soon
there
would
be
papers
that
did
indeed
sell
for
only
a
penny.
30．What
did
street
sales
mean
to
newspapers
A．They
would
be
priced
higher.
B．They
would
disappear
from
cities.
C．They
could
have
more
readers.
D．They
could
regain
public
trust.
31．Who
were
the
newspapers
of
the
new
trend
targeted
at
A．Local
politicians.
B．Common
people.
C．Young
publishers.
D．Rich
businessmen.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了报纸的演变历程。
1.
【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题
根据第二段“The
trend,
then,
was
toward
the
"penny
paper"—
a
term
referring
to
papers
made
widely
available
to
the
public.（然后penny
paper趋势的出现，使得普通大众也可以买得起报纸）”和第三段“
However,within
a
few
years,
street
sales
of
newspapers
would
be
commonplace
in
eastern
cities.（然而，在几年内，街头卖报纸将在东部城市司空见惯）”可知，street
sales的出现使得报纸有了更多的受众。故选择C项。

短文改错
Last
summer,
my
friend
and
me
visited
Beijing’s
Hutongs,
which
made
us
have
the
deep
understanding
of
Beijing.
The
Hutongs
mainly
built
during
the
Ming
and
Qing
dynasties.
Nobody
know
exactly
how
many
Hutongs
there
are
in
Beijing.
If
we
connected
all
Hutongs
together,
and
the
total
length
would
even
be
long
than
the
Great
Wall.
As
is
known,
the
Great

is
about
4,000
mile
long.
Some
Hutongs
are
such
narrow
that
a

in
order
to

through,
has
to

sideways.
And

With

some
are

【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者结合自己参观北京胡同的经历介绍了北京的胡同，介绍了其起源、长度和特色等。
1.
【答案】me→I
【解析】考查代词。句意：去年夏天，我和我的朋友参观了北京的胡同，这让我们对北京有了深刻的了解。此处作主语，表示“我”应用人称代词主格I。故将me改为I。
2.
【答案】the→a
【解析】考查冠词。句意：去年夏天，我和我的朋友参观了北京的胡同，这让我们对北京有了深刻的了解。结合句意表示“对……有深刻了解”短语为have
a
deep
understanding
of，因deep是辅音音素开头的单词，应用冠词a。故将the改为a。
3.
【答案】在mainly前加were
【解析】考查语态。句意：胡同主要建于明清两代。根据后文“during
the
Ming
and
Qing
dynasties”可知应用一般过去时，且主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为The
Hutongs，谓语用复数。故在mainly前加were。
4.
【答案】know→knows
【解析】考查主谓一致。句意：没有人知道北京到底有多少胡同。此处为一般现在时，主语为不定代词nobody，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故将know改为knows。
5.
【答案】去掉and
【解析】考查句子结构。句意：如果我们把所有胡同连在一起，总长度甚至会比长城还长。此处为if引导的条件状语从句，“the
total
length
would
even
be
long
than
the
Great
Wall”为主句，前面不需要连词。故去掉and。
6.
【答案】long→longer
【解析】考查比较级。句意：如果我们把所有胡同连在一起，总长度甚至会比长城还长。根据后文“than
the
Great
Wall”可知long应用比较级形式。故将long改为longer。
7.
【答案】mile→miles
【解析】考查名词的数。句意：众所周知，长城大约有4000英里长。mile为可数名词，由4000修饰应用复数形式。故将mile改为miles。
8.
【答案】such→so
【解析】考查副词。句意：有些胡同太窄了，像我这样的人要想通过，就得侧着身子走。修饰后文形容词narrow应用副词so，构成so…that…表示“如此……以至于……”。故将such改为so。
9.
【答案】With→To
【解析】考查介词。句意：让我们高兴的是，其中一些保存完好，在那里我们可以体验到典型的老北京人的生活。结合句意表示“让某人高兴的是”可知短语为to
one’s
delight。故将With改为To。
10.
【答案】typically→typical
【解析】考查形容词。句意：让我们高兴的是，其中一些保存完好，在那里我们可以体验到典型的老北京人的生活。修饰后文名词life应用形容词typical，作定语。故将typically改为typical。

Many
years
ago
there
lived
in
Holland
a
boy
named
Peter.
Peter's
father
was
one
of
the
men
who
tended
the
gates
in
the
dikes(堤坝)，called
sluices.
He
opened
and
closed
the
sluices
so
that
ships
could
pass
out
of
Holland's
canals
into
the
great
sea.
One
afternoon
in
the
early
fall,
when
Peter
was
eight
years
old,
his
mother
called
him
from
his
play.
“Come,
Peter,”
she
said.
“I
want
you
to
go
across
the
dike
and
take
these
cakes
to
your
friend,
the
blind
man.
Remember
that
you
shall
be
home
before
dark.”The
little
boy
was
glad
to
go
on
such
an
errand
(跑腿)，
and
started
off
with
a
light
heart.
He
stayed
with
the
poor
blind
man
a
little
while
to
tell
him
something
about
his
walk
along
the
dike-the
sun,
the
flowers
and
the
ships
far
out
at
sea.
Then
he
remembered
his
mother's
wish
that
he
should
return
before
dark.
Bidding
his
friend
goodbye,
he
set
out
for
home.
As
he
walked
beside
the
canal,
he
noticed
how
the
rains
had
swollen
the
water,
and
how
they
beat
against
the
side
of
the
dike,
and
he
thought
of
his
father's
gates.
“I
am
glad
they
are
so
strong,”
he
said
to
himself.“If
the
dike
gave
way
what
should
we
do
These
pretty
fields
would
be
covered
with
water.”
As
he
walked
along
the
dike
he
sometimes
stopped
to
pick
the
pretty
blue
flowers
that
grew
beside
the
road,
or
to
listen
to
the
rabbits'
soft
tread
as
they
rustled
through
the
grass.
Suddenly
he
heard
a
noise.
It
was
the
sound
of
trickling
water!
He
stopped
and
looked
down.
There
was
a
small
hole
in
the
dike,
through
which
a
tiny
stream
was
flowing.
Any
child
in
Holland
is
frightened
at
the
thought
of
a
leak
in
the
dike.
Peter
understood
the
danger
at
once.
If
the
water
ran
through
a
little
hole
it
would
soon
make
a
larger
one,
and
the
whole
country
would
be
flooded.
In
a
moment
he
saw
what
he
must
do.
Throwing
away
his
flowers,
he
climbed
down
the
side
of
the
dike
and
thrust
his
finger
into
the
tiny
hole.
The
flowing
of
the
water
was
stopped!
“Oh!”
he
said
to
himself.
“I
can
keep
the
water
back
with
my
finger.
Holland
shall
not
be
drowned
while
I
am
here.
”
This
was
all
very
well
at
first,
but
soon
it
grew
dark
and
cold.
The
little
fellow
shouted
and
screamed.
“Come
here;
come
here,”
he
called.
But
no
one
heard
him;
no
one
came
to
help
him.

【答案】Paragraph
1:
It
grew
still
colder,
and
his
arm
ached.
and
began
to
grow
stiff
and
numb.
He
shouted
again.
"Will
no
one
come
Mother!
Mother!"
But
his
mother
had
looked
anxiously
along
the
dike
road
many
times
since
sunset
for
her
little
boy,
and
now
she
had
closed
and
locked
the
cottage
door,
thinking
that
Peter
was
spending
the
night
with
his
blind
friend,
and
that
she
would
scold
him
in
the
morning
for
staying
away
from
home
without
permission.
Peter
tried
to
whistle,
but
his
teeth
chattered
with
the
cold.
He
thought
of
his
brother
and
sister
in
their
warm
beds,
and
of
his
dear
father
and
mother.
"I
must
not
let
them
be
drowned,
he
thought.
"I
must
stay
here
until
someone
comes."
Paragraph
2:
The
moon
and
stars
looked
down
on
the
child
crouching
on
a
stone
on
the
side
of
the
dike.
His
head
was
bent,
and
his
eyes
were
closed,
but
he
was
not
asleep.
"I'll
stand
it
somehow,
"he
thought.
So,
he
stayed
there
all
night
keeping
the
sea
out.
Early
the
next
morning
a
man
going
to
work
heard
a
groan
as
he
walked
along
the
top
of
the
dike.
Looking
over
the
edge,
he
saw
a
child
clinging
to
the
side
of
the
great
wall.
"What's
the
matter "
he
called.
"Are
you
hurt "
"I'm
keeping
the
water
back!"
Peter
yelled.
"Tell
them
to
come
quickly!"
The
alarm
was
spread.
People
came
running
with
shovels
and
the
hole
was
soon
mended.
They
carried
Peter
home
to
his
parents,
and
before
long
the
whole
town
knew
that
he
had
saved
their
lives
that
night.Unit

Do
you
know
that
junk
food
isn't
healthy
Of
course
you
do!
Do
you
eat
it
anyway
Of
course
you
do!
But
a
new
study
shows
teaching
adolescents
about
the
ways
food
companies
fool
then
into
thinking
junk
food
is
cool
can
encourage
kids
to
fight
back-by
eating
healthier.
The
pull
of
junk
food
can
be
super-strong.
It's
designed
to
be
tasty,
which
makes
eating
well
one
of
the
great
health
challenges
of
our
time.
Everyone
from
doctors
to
the
government
has
been
trying
to
handle
it.
Yet
we
keep
eating
junk
food.
Professor
Christopher
Bryan
says,
"Food
companies
want
you
to
want
junk
food.
"
They
spend
millions
of
dollars
coming
up
with
new
ways
to
promote
junk
food
consumption.
They
hire
scientists
to
make
new
junk
food
almost
irresistible.
They
might
do
this,
for
example,
by
adding
more
sugar.
Rats
fed
junk
food
for
six
weeks
will
even
walk
across
a
floor
that
gives
them
electric
shocks
just
to
get
more
of
such
food.
Foods
ads
often
make
unhealthy
junk
food
seem
healthy
by
featuring
professional
athletes,
fit-looking
pop
stars
and
smiling,
active
teens.
"We
thought
when
the
students
learned
this,
it
would
matter
to
them.
"
Bryan
says.
He
worked
with
8th
graders
at
a
Texas
school.
Half
of
them
got
a
lesson
Bryan
created.
It
focused
on
the
ways
junk
food
is
advertised,
or
marketed.
A
second
group
received
lessons
that
focused
on
health.
These
lessons
informed
students
junk
food
is
bad,
and
that
foods
like
apples
or
carrots
are
a
better
choice.
The
students
learned
a
bad
diet
can
lead
to
major
weight
gain,
and
that
being
overweight
puts
people
at
risk
for
serious
diseases.
They
also
learned
how
eating
well
now
can
keep
you
healthy
when
you're
older.
After
the
lessons,
the
kids
in
both
groups
were
asked
how
they
felt
about
junk
food.
Most
didn't
have
positive
feelings
about
these
unhealthy
foods.
26．Why
does
the
author
mention
the
questions
in
paragraph
1
A．To
express
his
doubts
about
junk
food.
B．To
promote
the
idea
of
healthy
eating.
C．To
describe
the
situation
of
junk
food.
D．To
introduce
junk
food
for
discussion.
27．What
remains
a
great
health
challenge
to
doctors
A．Making
people
do
more
exercise.
B．Making
people
eat
healthily.
C．Making
people
lose
weight.
D．Making
people
prefer

A．What

junk
food
almost
impossible
to

B．What

junk
food
can

food.

the

A．Shocking.
B．Popular
C．Effective
D．Interesting
Before
the
1830s,most
newspapers
were
sold
through
annual
subscriptions
in
America,
usually
$8
to
$10
a
year.
Today
$8
or
$10
seems
a
small
amount
of
money,
but
at
that
time
these
amounts
were
forbidding
to
most
citizens.
Accordingly,
newspapers
were
read
almost
only
by
rich
people
in
politics
or
the
trades.
In
addition,
most
newspapers
had
little
in
them
that
would
appeal
to
a
mass
audience.
They
were
dull
and
visually
forbidding.
But
the
revolution
that
was
taking
place
in
the
1830s
would
change
all
that.
The
trend,
then,
was
toward
the
"penny
paper"—
a
term
referring
to
papers
made
widely
available
to
the
public.
It
meant
any
inexpensive
newspaper;
perhaps
more
importantly
it
meant
newspapers
that
could
be
bought
in
single
copies
on
the
street.
This
development
did
not
take
place
overnight.
It
had
been
possible(but
not
easy)to
buy
single
copies
of
newspapers
before
1830,but
this
usually
meant
the
reader
had
to
go
down
to
the
printer's
office
to
purchase
a
copy.
Street
sales
were
almost
unknown.
However,
within
a
few
years,
street
sales
of
newspapers
would
be
commonplace
in
eastern
cities.
At
first
the
price
of
single
copies
was
seldom
a
penny—usually
two
or
three
cents
was
charged
—and
some
of
the
older
well-known
papers
charged
five
or
six
cents.
But
the
phrase
"penny
paper
"
caught
the
public's
fancy,
and
soon
there
would
be
papers
that
did
indeed
sell
for
only
a
penny.
30．What
did
street
sales
mean
to
newspapers
A．They
would
be
priced
higher.
B．They
would
disappear
from
cities.
C．They
could
have
more
readers.
D．They
could
regain
public
trust.
31．Who
were
the
newspapers
of
the
new
trend
targeted
at
A．Local
politicians.
B．Common
people.
C．Young
publishers.
D．Rich
businessmen.

Many
years
ago
there
lived
in
Holland
a
boy
named
Peter.
Peter's
father
was
one
of
the
men
who
tended
the
gates
in
the
dikes(堤坝)，called
sluices.
He
opened
and
closed
the
sluices
so
that
ships
could
pass
out
of
Holland's
canals
into
the
great
sea.
One
afternoon
in
the
early
fall,
when
Peter
was
eight
years
old,
his
mother
called
him
from
his
play.
“Come,
Peter,”
she
said.
“I
want
you
to
go
across
the
dike
and
take
these
cakes
to
your
friend,
the
blind
man.
Remember
that
you
shall
be
home
before
dark.”The
little
boy
was
glad
to
go
on
such
an
errand
(跑腿)，
and
started
off
with
a
light
heart.
He
stayed
with
the
poor
blind
man
a
little
while
to
tell
him
something
about
his
walk
along
the
dike-the
sun,
the
flowers
and
the
ships
far
out
at
sea.
Then
he
remembered
his
mother's
wish
that
he
should
return
before
dark.
Bidding
his
friend
goodbye,
he
set
out
for
home.
As
he
walked
beside
the
canal,
he
noticed
how
the
rains
had
swollen
the
water,
and
how
they
beat
against
the
side
of
the
dike,
and
he
thought
of
his
father's
gates.
“I
am
glad
they
are
so
strong,”
he
said
to
himself.“If
the
dike
gave
way
what
should
we
do
These
pretty
fields
would
be
covered
with
water.”
As
he

the
dike
he
sometimes

pretty

flowers
that
grew

Suddenly

He
stopped
and
looked

There
was
a
small

was

Any

Holland

Peter

and

and
thrust
his
finger
into
the
tiny

The

the

“Oh!”
he
said
to
himself.
“I
