Sugar-free cookies, sugar-free candy, and diet soda—are these better for you After sugar became a no-no in the nutrition and wellness world, sugar-free food and drinks acted as a replacement for once beloved sweet drinks and snacks. Being claimed to be ZERO sugar means the food and drinks are healthier, better for diabetics, and help you slim down ... Right Wrong. Sugar-free products aren’t better for you. In fact, they are worse. For most sugar-free products, it means that artificial sweeteners (甜味剂) are used instead of real sugar. The problem is that these sweeteners do not come from natural soures and they can do you more harm than good.
Let’s get into what these artificial sweeteners actually are. Sugar-free sugar sounds wrong because there is no such thing as sugar-free sugar. Some of these sugar-free alternatives even contain sugar and the ones that have chemicals your body often does not know how to process. Most artificial sweeteners are a lot sweeter than sugar so only a small quantity of them are needed. That’s why they can market sugar-free alternatives as “low-calorie” or “no-calorie’. It also means that you get no nutritional value from consuming them, which is why so many sugar-free replacements are classified as “non-nutritive”. These artificial sweeteners tend to hide under some names. Actually, they are 200-600 times sweeter than sugar.
When you eat sweet stuff, your body continues to desire it and, even though your body cannot metabolize (代谢) these sugar-free alternatives, your brain does not know the difference. In turn sugar-free alternatives relate to weight gain and Type-2 diabetes. Besides, artificial sweeteners also damage your gut’s ability to break down sugar which impacts everything you eat. In other words, your body doesn’t know how to handle artificial sweeteners because they have nothing real to process.
Here is a good rule of thumb: stay away from artificial sweeteners and look for non-sugar, natural sweeteners like stevia (甜叶菊) or date sugar. In the war against artificial sweeteners and real sugar, both lose. Satisfy your sweet tooth with natural sugar that comes from fruits and stay away from products claimed to be sugar-free.
28. What do most sugar-free products have in common
A. They don’t taste sweet. B. They are free of calories.
C. They are rich in nutrition. D. They have artificial sweeteners.
29. What can be inferred about artificial sweeteners
A. They are as sweet as sugar. B. They pose a big risk to health.
C. They can be metabolized easily D. They have long been added to food.
30. What does the author advise us to do
A. To keep a balanced diet. B. To stay away from sugary products.
C. To choose fewer artificial ingredients. D. To take in sugar from natural sources
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Why are sugar-free products bad for your health
B. How will sugar-free products affect your body
C. What can be called sugar-free products
D. Why are sugar-free products popular
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。如今市场上充斥着各种“无糖食品”和“无糖饮料”，但实际上存在更大的健康隐患。文章说明了人造甜味剂的危害以及建议远离人工甜味剂，寻找无糖的天然甜味剂，
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“For most sugar-free products, it means that artificial sweeteners (甜味剂) are used instead of real sugar.(对于大多数无糖产品来说，这意味着使用人工甜味剂来代替真正的糖)”可知，“无糖产品”通常含有人工甜味剂。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“In turn sugai-free alternatives relate to weight gain and Type-2 diabetes. Besides, artificial sweeteners also damage your gut’s ability to break down sugar which impacts everything you eat. (反过来，无糖替代品与体重增加和2型糖尿病有关。此外，人造甜味剂还会损害肠道分解糖的能力，这会影响你吃的所有东西)”可知，这些所谓的“无糖产品”中含有的人工甜味剂会导致肥胖和糖尿病，还会损害肠道分解糖的能力，因此是更大的健康隐患。故选B。
30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Here is a good rule of thumb: stay away from artificial sweeteners and look for non-sugar, natural sweeteners like stevia (甜叶菊) or date sugar.(这里有一个很好的经验法则：远离人工甜味剂，寻找无糖的天然甜味剂，如甜菊糖或枣糖)”可知，作者建议摄取自然的糖分——比如来自水果的糖。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Sugar-free products aren’t better for you. In fact, they are worse. For most sugar-free products, it means that artificial sweeteners (甜味剂) are used instead of real sugar. The problem is that these sweeteners do not come from natural sourees and they can do you more harm than good.(无糖产品并不对你更好。事实上，他们更糟糕。对于大多数无糖产品来说，这意味着使用人工甜味剂来代替真正的糖。问题是这些甜味剂不是来自天然来源，它们对你的危害大于好处)”结合下文具体介绍无糖产品实际更甜，并且对身体对糖的代谢有影响可知，A选项“为什么无糖产品对你的健康有害？”最符合文章标题。故选A。
D
A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.“At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
32. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
33. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
34. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph
A. A kind of medicine. B. A way of making new friends.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
35. What is the author’s attitude to praise groups
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种叫做“夸夸群”的交流形式在中国社交媒体上流行起来，这些聊天群提供了一个平台，让人们能够得到赞美和鼓励。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.”（这些聊天群为人们提供了一个接受赞美和鼓励的平台，而这些在日常生活中往往是缺乏的。）和第四段中“Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives.”（夸夸群的出现，是中国人寻求和接受日常生活中可能缺乏的赞美和鼓励的一种方式。）可推知，夸夸群的目的是给人们带来希望和幸福。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.”（孟女士忍不住笑了起来，并表示希望以后也能发表这样高质量的赞扬。）可知，孟对夸夸群的服务是很满意的。故选C项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Those who support the groups, see them as an…”以及后文“to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.”（可以缓解极端糟糕的情绪，这种情绪通常与互联网上发生的事情有关。）由此可知，此处为那些支持这些群的人，认为它们是一种解药。故可猜测划线单词antidote为“解药”的意思，结合选项A项A kind of medicine“一种药”意思相近。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。主要介绍了一种叫做“夸夸群”的交流形式在中国社交媒体上流行起来，这些聊天群提供了一个平台，让人们能够得到赞美和鼓励。根据最后一段中“But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.”（但是人生的旅程是漫长的，当没有人提供帮助的时候，我们只能依靠自己来面对一些意想不到的情况。）可推知，作者对夸夸群的态度既没有反对，也没有支持，只是客观地做了评价。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究发现体重是否增加受基因因素的影响，但体重过重的人可能患有高血压和心脏病等疾病的风险，因此我们应该经常锻炼，合理饮食。
【56题详解】
考查连词。句意：你有没有注意到，有些人想吃什么就吃什么，还能保持身材，而另一些人却小心翼翼地看着他们吃的东西，却还是长胖了 根据前文“Have you ever noticed that some people can eat what they want and stay in shape”以及后文“others carefully watch what they eat and still put on weight ”可知，两句是转折关系，且强调的是两者同时发生，应该用while连接。故填while。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意：真烦人!分析句子结构可知，本句是感叹句，结构是How+形容词+主语+谓语，其中主语和谓语可省略，所以空处应填形容词，修饰主语，主语为前句提到的事，修饰物，应用-ing形式。故填annoying。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意：科学家说，当一些人吃东西时，他们的身体会自然地将食物中多余的能量储存为脂肪。空处修饰空后的动词，应该用副词修饰。故填naturally。
【59题详解】
考查连词。句意：与此同时，其他人吃得比他们需要的多，但他们的身体能够“燃烧掉”多余的食物而不会产生脂肪，所以他们很少有体重问题。根据前文“other people eat more than they need but their bodies are able to “burn off” the extra food without making fat”以及后文“they rarely have weight problems.”可知，两句是因果关系，应该用so连接。故填so。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：为了证明这是正确的，科学家们在实验室的老鼠身上做了实验。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词have experimented，所以show用非谓语形式，根据句意，此处表目的，应用不定式作目的状语，位于句首，首字母应大写。故填To show。
【61题详解】
考查名词。句意：为了证明这是正确的，科学家们在实验室的老鼠身上做了实验。空前是介词，所以空处应填名词，和laboratory构成名词短语：laboratory mouse意为“实验小鼠”，mouse为可数名词，根据句意，应用复数形式。故填mice。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：科学家得出结论，体重增加似乎受到遗传因素的影响。分析句子结构可知，本句是that引导的宾语从句，conclude作主句谓语，描述的是已发生的事，用一般过去时。故填concluded。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：他们还相信，他们现在已经确定了可能导致这种倾向的基因。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词是genes，在从句中作主语，当先行词有the very修饰时，只能用that引导。故填that。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：有了这些知识，他们相信有可能开发出针对这些基因的药物，阻止人们体重增加。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词believe，所以arm用非谓语形式，此处是固定搭配：be armed with意为“用…武装起来”，所以去掉be动词，位于句首，首字母应大写。故填Armed。
【65题详解】
考查代词。句意：有了这些知识，他们相信有可能开发出针对这些基因的药物，阻止人们体重增加。分析句子结构可知，此处是省略that的宾语从句，从句中是it is+形容词+to do sth.句型，应用it作形式主语，不定式是真正的主语。故填it。

67. 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。
Sometimes an act of kindness can mean a lot in life.
Three years ago I worked for a few weeks as a doctor in a new dental clinic (牙科诊所) at Victor Harbor, to the south of Adelaide and an hour further away than my usual workplace. My first day there was a rush driving to the new clinic and getting used to the clinical environment.
As it was all new to me, I took off my gold rings: my wedding ring, and one that was an anniversary (周年纪念日) gift from my husband. I put them in a tissue (纸巾) and placed them beside my computer. During my lunch break, I noticed the tissue and thought that it did not look very clean and threw it into the rubbish bin. I went about my work and my day went well; I met new patients and felt that I had been productive. At the very first day at the clinic, I did a good job, busy but fruitful. So I felt more than proud. When it was time to get off work, I changed my clothes and went out of the clinic, thinking nothing of the ring.
Driving home at the end of the day, just moments before I reached my house, I noticed that my rings were missing. I felt the heat in my body rise, my face burning red. I felt sick to my stomach. I spent an hour or so making calls, trying to find my rings. The first people I called were my manager and clinical leader and they gave me a few phone numbers for cleaners. I got in touch with a lady who managed the cleaning services for the clinic, and she told me that the bins had already been collected. I knew nothing could be done now. I had lost my rings. It mattered much to me and now as if I lost a precious thing and my feelings were beyond words.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

But about two hours later, I received an amazing phone call.

Three days later, I finally got a chance to thank the cleaner face to face.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文：
But about two hours later, I received an amazing phone call. The cleaner had gone through the bins and found my rings! I was so thankful to her, someone who had taken the trouble to go through the bins—which is not a pleasant task—to find my priceless ring. I worked at that clinic the following day, so I bought chocolates to thank this wonderful person. On arriving the clinic, my manager gave the ring to me. Unfortunately, I did not get to meet the cleaner as she was at work elsewhere that day.
Three days later, I finally got a chance to thank the cleaner face to face. After a tiring day, I was about to leave as usual when I met a cleaner by accident, who came to collect the bins at the clinic. With much curiosity, I quickly came up to her, and asked whether she was the cleaner who had found my rings. The cleaner, wearing dirty overalls, stood in front of me and said yes. Excited and relieved, I expressed my deep gratitude to her again and again. She just told me it was not a big deal. Finally, she left, wearing a bright smile on her face. And that smile would stay in my memory forever.

It was the summer of 2005, in the small town of Plano, Texas. Our family was new to town, and we knew no one. This was our third move since leaving eastern Ohio three years before.

But things changed in my third period on the second day, I didn’t know Mom had signed me up for a choir (合唱团), but it was OK because I liked music. Our teacher, Richard J. Winters, was also new to town and to teaching He was in his 40s, just starting his choir directing career.
He was a former soldier, and l immediately recognized he loved both kids and music. On our first day, he told us what he wanted for us and from us. We each took tums in making music beside the piano, I was nervous to sing in front of the class, but I did it well. When all the students finished singing, he declared, “You are going to be a great choir!” Through many competitions, our choir proved not just good, but among the best in Texas.

Sugar-free cookies sugar-free candy, and diet soda—are these better for you After sugar became a no-no in the nutrition and wellness world, sugar-free food and drinks acted as a replacement for once beloved sweet drinks and snacks. Being claimed to be ZERO sugar means the food and drinks are healthier, better for diabetics, and help you slim down ... Right Wrong. Sugar-free products aren’t better for you. In fact, they are worse. For most sugar-free products, it means that artificial sweeteners (甜味剂) are used instead of real sugar. The problem is that these sweeteners do not come from natural soures and they can do you more harm than good.
Let’s get into what these artificial sweeteners actually are. Sugar-free sugar sounds wrong because there is no such thing as sugar-free sugar. Some of these sugar-free alternatives even contain sugar and the ones that have chemicals your body often does not know how to process. Most artificial sweeteners are a lot sweeter than sugar so only a small quantity of them are needed. That’s why they can market sugar-free alternatives as “low-calorie” or “no-calorie’. It also means that you get no nutritional value from consuming them, which is why so many sugar-free replacements are classified as “non-nutritive”. These artificial sweeteners tend to hide under some names. Actually, they are 200-600 times sweeter than sugar.
When you eat sweet stuff, your body continues to desire it and, even though your body cannot metabolize (代谢) these sugar-free alternatives, your brain does not know the difference. In turn sugar-free alternatives relate to weight gain and Type-2 diabetes. Besides, artificial sweeteners also damage your gut’s ability to break down sugar which impacts everything you eat. In other words, your body doesn’t know how to handle artificial sweeteners because they have nothing real to process.
Here is a good rule of thumb: stay away from artificial sweeteners and look for non-sugar, natural sweeteners like stevia (甜叶菊) or date sugar. In the war against artificial sweeteners and real sugar, both lose. Satisfy your sweet tooth with natural sugar that comes from fruits and stay away from products claimed to be sugar-free.
28. What do most sugar-free products have in common
A. They don’t taste sweet. B. They are free of calories.
C. They are rich in nutrition. D. They have artificial sweeteners.
29. What can be inferred about artificial sweeteners
A. They are as sweet as sugar. B. They pose a big risk to health.
C. They can be metabolized easily D. They have long been added to food.
30 What does the author advise us to do
A. To keep a balanced diet. B. To stay away from sugary products.
C. To choose fewer artificial ingredients. D. To take in sugar from natural sources
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Why are sugar-free products bad for your health
B. How will sugar-free products affect your body
C. What can be called sugar-free products
D. Why are sugar-free products popular
D
A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.“At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
32. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
33. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
34. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph
A. A kind of medicine. B. A way of making new friends.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
35. What is the author’s attitude to praise groups
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.

Sometimes an act of kindness can mean a lot in life.
Three years ago I worked for a few weeks as a doctor in a new dental clinic (牙科诊所) at Victor Harbor, to the south of Adelaide and an hour further away than my usual workplace. My first day there was a rush driving to the new clinic and getting used to the clinical environment.
As it was all new to me, I took off my gold rings: my wedding ring, and one that was an anniversary (周年纪念日) gift from my husband. I put them in a tissue (纸巾) and placed them beside my computer. During my lunch break, I noticed the tissue and thought that it did not look very clean and threw it into the rubbish bin. I went about my work and my day went well; I met new patients and felt that I had been productive. At the very first day at the clinic, I did a good job, busy but fruitful. So I felt more than proud. When it was time to get off work, I changed my clothes and went out of the clinic, thinking nothing of the ring.
Driving home at the end of the day, just moments before I reached my house, I noticed that my rings were missing. I felt the heat in my body rise, my face burning red. I felt sick to my stomach. I spent an hour or so making calls, trying to find my rings. The first people I called were my manager and clinical leader and they gave me a few phone numbers for cleaners. I got in touch with a lady who managed the cleaning services for the clinic, and she told me that the bins had already been collected. I knew nothing could be done now. I had lost my rings. It mattered much to me and now as if I lost a precious thing and my feelings were beyond words.

But about two hours later, I received an amazing phone call.
