II.阅读理解
A
Let’s
face
it.No
one
drinks
diet
sodas
for
the
taste.People
drink
diet
sodas
in
the
hope
that
it
will
help
them
lose
weight
or
at
least
keep
them
from
gaining
it.Yet
it
seems
to
have
exactly
the
opposite
effect,according
to
a
new
study.
Researchers
from
the
University
of
Texas
said
those
who
drank
two
or
more
diet
sodas
a
day
had
waist
size
increases
that
were
six
times
greater
than
those
who
didn’t
drink
diet
sodas.“What
we
saw
was
that
the
more
diet
sodas
a
person
drank,the
more
weight
they
were
likely
to
gain,”
said
Sharon
Fowler.
The
study
was
based
on
data
from
474
participants
in
a
large,ongoing
research
project,where
the
participants
were
followed
for
nearly
10
years.
While
the
findings
are
surprising,they
also
offer
some
explanations.Nutrition
expert,Melanie
Rogers,who
works
with
overweight
patients
in
New
York,has
found
that
when
patients
are
switched
from
regular
to
diet
sodas,they
don’t
lose
weight
at
all.“We
weren’t
seeing
weight
loss
necessarily,and
that
was
confusing
to
us,”
said
Rogers.
So
why
would
diet
sodas
cause
weight
gain?
No
one
knows
for
sure
yet,but
it
could
be
that
people
think
they
can
eat
more
if
they
drink
diet
sodas,and
so
over?compensate
for
the
missing
calories.
A
related
study
found
some
sweeteners(甜味剂)
raised
blood
sugar
levels
in
some
mice.“Data
from
this
and
other
potential
studies
suggest
that
the
promotion
of
diet
sodas
and
artificial
sweeteners
may
be
risky,”said
Helen
P.Hazuda,professor
at
the
University
of
Texas’s
school
of
medicine.“They
may
be
free
of
calories,but
not
of
consequences.”
1.People
drink

sodas
to
.
A.enjoy
its

A.causes

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明,喝低糖汽水非但不能减轻体重,反而会让体重增加。
1.答案C
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“People
drink
diet
sodas
in
the
hope
that
it
will
help
them
lose
weight...”可知,人们喝低糖汽水是为了减轻体重,故选C。
2.答案A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句和第二段最后一句中的“the
more
diet
sodas
a
person
drank,the
more
weight
they
were
likely
to
gain”可知,新的研究表明喝低糖汽水非但不能减轻体重,反而会让体重增加。故选A。
3.答案B
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“they
can
eat
more
if
they
drink
diet
sodas”可知,喝低糖汽水的人趋向于吃更多的食物。故选B。
4.答案B
解析:代词指代题。此处是承接上一句中的内容,故“They”指的是“低糖汽水和人造甜味剂”。故选B。
B
In
the
near
future,we
may
be
using
our
eyes
to
operate
our
smart?phones
and
tablets,even
when
it
comes
to
playing
popular
games
like
Fruit
Ninja.
The
Gaze
Group
has
been
developing
eye?controlled
computer
technology
for
nearly
20
years.But
those
devices
have
been
firstly
designed
to
help
those
with
disabilities,and
are
very
expensive.
“After
a
while,we
figured
out
that
probably
the
best
way
is
to
go
for
a
mass?market
way,”
says
Gaze’s
Sune
Alstrup
Johansen,“where
everybody
would
have
this
available.”
Johansen
and
some
of
his
colleagues
have
formed
a
new
company,The
Eye
Tribe,which
is
hoping
to
develop
the
technology
on
a
mass
commercial
level.
The
technology
works
when
combined
with
the
computing
device
toward
the
user’s
face.After
making
sure
of
the
user’s
eye
movements,the
technology
is
then
able
to
easily
find
where
a
person’s
eyes
are
moving,and
then
allow
the
eyes
to
control
a
cursor(光标).
“Our
software
can
then
determine
the
location
of
the
eyes
and
know
where
you’re
looking
on
the
screen
to
make
sure
what
you’re
looking
at,”
reads
an
explanation
on
The
Eye
Tribe
site.
There
has
been
a
gradual
change
toward
hands?free
technology
in
recent
years,particularly
in
the
gaming
world.Recently
Xbox
released
the
Kinect
device,which
lets
users
control
their
Xbox
and
play
certain
games
using
only
their
hands,legs
and
voices.But
still,most
of
these
devices
have
been
more
of
a
gimmick
than
a
practical
way
to
use
one’s
hands
to
control
a
mobile
device.Johansen
said
a
replaceable
filter(滤光器)
would
be
a
cheap,convenient
way
for
most
consumers.
And
even
as
companies
like
The
Eye
Tribe
work
to
create
such
a
product
for
the
average
user,making
the
eye?controlled
technology
more
accessible
and
less
expensive
will
have
similar
benefits
for
physically
disabled
users.

【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了在不久的将来,人们手中的智能手机和平板电脑或许可以用眼睛操控了,甚至在玩像水果忍者这样的流行游戏时也是如此。
5.答案C
解析:主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了在不久的将来,我们可能会用我们的眼睛操控智能手机和平板电脑,甚至在玩像水果忍者这样的流行游戏时也是如此。故选C。
6.答案C
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知,它不是一种用手控制移动设备的实用方法,由此可以猜测出这些设备大多只是一种噱头,也就是一种用以吸引人的技巧,故画线词gimmick的意思是:trick(技巧,诡计)。故选C。
7.答案B
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段“In
the
near
future,we
may
be
using
our
eyes
to
operate
our
smart?phones
and
tablets,even
when
it
comes
to
playing
popular
games
like
Fruit
Ninja.”可知,不久的将来我们可能会有这样的智能手机,所以说目前我们还没有这样一部能用眼睛控制的手机。故选B。

number
of
the
hutongs”,所以填was。

概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
It
turns
out
that
happy
cows
produce
better
milk.The
finding
is
not
new.The
California
Milk
Advisory
Board
has
been
saying
it
for
years.But
now
a
team
of
researchers,working
with
the
University
of
Wisconsin’s
Dairyland
Initiative,is
helping
farmers
have
happier
herds.
The
researchers
are
visiting
dairy
farms
and
showing
farmers
how
to
improve
their
cows’
living
conditions.Their
advice
and
information
is
available
around
the
world
on
their
website.
One
important
area
for
discussion
is
how
to
prevent
leg
pain,a
condition
also
called
lameness.Nigel
Cook
is
with
the
Dairyland
Initiative.“Lameness
impacts
everything
a
cow
gets
to
do
in
her
day.It
impacts
the
way
she
rests,the
way
she
milks,the
way
she
eats,her
ability
to
reproduce
and
ultimately
her
ability
to
stay
on
the
farm.”
Speaking
in
a
cow
barn,Cook
explains
that
a
bed
of
sand
can
provide
a
good
place
for
cows
to
lie
down
during
the
day.
The
deep,soft
bedding
of
sand
creates
an
environment
where
cows
can
rest
half
the
day,and
that
is
incredibly
important
to
cows.
The
researchers
advise
farmers
to
provide
bigger
stalls,the
areas
where
cows
are
kept
in
a
barn.They
also
say
farmers
should
use
more
fans
to
keep
the
animals
cool,and
feed
all
their
cows
at
the
same
time.
And
researchers
say
it
is
a
good
idea
to
keep
cows
with
their
usual
group
of
friends
when
it
comes
time
for
them
to
give
birth.This
helps
lessen(缓解)
the
stress
for
the
cows.
Mitch
Breunig
owns
the
Mystic
Valley
Dairy
in
the
U.S.state
of
Wisconsin.He
says
he
used
the
advice
to
improve
the
conditions
for
his
400
cows.“If
you
take
away
their
stress,they
actually
produce
more
milk.And
then
the
other
thing
that
actually
is
interesting
is
that
they
do
it
by
eating
less
feed.”
Since
he
made
the
changes,Breunig
says
the
daily’s
production
has
increased.His
cows
have
gone
from
producing
49
liters
of
milk
a
day
to
almost
57
liters.
Also,his
cows
have
fewer
injuries
and
live
about
a
year
longer
than
before.That
is
good
for
the
animals,and
for
people,too.
One
possible
version:
It
is
reported
that
happy
cows
can
produce
better
milk.(要点1)
Many
American
researchers
do
lots
of
experiments
to
get
the
result.(要点2)
They
advise
farmers
to
provide
bigger
stalls
and
use
a
bed
of
stand
which
can
be
a
good
place
for
cows
to
lie
down
during
the
day.They
ask
farmers
to
improve
the
conditions
in
order
to
take
away
cows’
stress.(要点3)
So
it
is
necessary
to
take
good
care
of
cows
to
produce
better
milk.(要点4)Unit

II.阅读理解
A
Let’s
face
it.No
one
drinks
diet
sodas
for
the
taste.People
drink
diet
sodas
in
the
hope
that
it
will
help
them
lose
weight
or
at
least
keep
them
from
gaining
it.Yet
it
seems
to
have
exactly
the
opposite
effect,according
to
a
new
study.
Researchers
from
the
University
of
Texas
said
those
who
drank
two
or
more
diet
sodas
a
day
had
waist
size
increases
that
were
six
times
greater
than
those
who
didn’t
drink
diet
sodas.“What
we
saw
was
that
the
more
diet
sodas
a
person
drank,the
more
weight
they
were
likely
to
gain,”
said
Sharon
Fowler.
The
study
was
based
on
data
from
474
participants
in
a
large,ongoing
research
project,where
the
participants
were
followed
for
nearly
10
years.
While
the
findings
are
surprising,they
also
offer
some
explanations.Nutrition
expert,Melanie
Rogers,who
works
with
overweight
patients
in
New
York,has
found
that
when
patients
are
switched
from
regular
to
diet
sodas,they
don’t
lose
weight
at
all.“We
weren’t
seeing
weight
loss
necessarily,and
that
was
confusing
to
us,”
said
Rogers.
So
why
would
diet
sodas
cause
weight
gain?
No
one
knows
for
sure
yet,but
it
could
be
that
people
think
they
can
eat
more
if
they
drink
diet
sodas,and
so
over?compensate
for
the
missing
calories.
A
related
study
found
some
sweeteners(甜味剂)
raised
blood
sugar
levels
in
some
mice.“Data
from
this
and
other
potential
studies
suggest
that
the
promotion
of
diet
sodas
and
artificial
sweeteners
may
be
risky,”said
Helen
P.Hazuda,professor
at
the
University
of
Texas’s
school
of
medicine.“They
may
be
free
of
calories,but
not
of
consequences.”

probably
refers
to
“

B
In
the
near
future,we
may
be
using
our
eyes
to
operate
our
smart?phones
and
tablets,even
when
it
comes
to
playing
popular
games
like
Fruit
Ninja.
The
Gaze
Group
has
been
developing
eye?controlled
computer
technology
for
nearly
20
years.But
those
devices
have
been
firstly
designed
to
help
those
with
disabilities,and
are
very
expensive.
“After
a
while,we
figured
out
that
probably
the
best
way
is
to
go
for
a
mass?market
way,”
says
Gaze’s
Sune
Alstrup
Johansen,“where
everybody
would
have
this
available.”
Johansen
and
some
of
his
colleagues
have
formed
a
new
company,The
Eye
Tribe,which
is
hoping
to
develop
the
technology
on
a
mass
commercial
level.
The
technology
works
when
combined
with
the
computing
device
toward
the
user’s
face.After
making
sure
of
the
user’s
eye
movements,the
technology
is
then
able
to
easily
find
where
a
person’s
eyes
are
moving,and
then
allow
the
eyes
to
control
a
cursor(光标).
“Our
software
can
then
determine
the
location
of
the
eyes
and
know
where
you’re
looking
on
the
screen
to
make
sure
what
you’re
looking
at,”
reads
an
explanation
on
The
Eye
Tribe
site.
There
has
been
a
gradual
change
toward
hands?free
technology
in
recent
years,particularly
in
the
gaming
world.Recently
Xbox
released
the
Kinect
device,which
lets
users
control
their
Xbox
and
play
certain
games
using
only
their
hands,legs
and
voices.But
still,most
of
these
devices
have
been
more
of
a
gimmick
than
a
practical
way
to
use
one’s
hands
to
control
a
mobile
device.Johansen
said
a
replaceable
filter(滤光器)
would
be
a
cheap,convenient
way
for
most
consumers.
And
even
as
companies
like
The
Eye
Tribe
work
to
create
such
a
product
for
the
average
user,making
the
eye?controlled
technology
more
accessible
and
less
expensive
will
have
similar
benefits
for
physically
disabled
users.

概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
It
turns
out
that
happy
cows
produce
better
milk.The
finding
is
not
new.The
California
Milk
Advisory
Board
has
been
saying
it
for
years.But
now
a
team
of
researchers,working
with
the
University
of
Wisconsin’s
Dairyland
Initiative,is
helping
farmers
have
happier
herds.
The
researchers
are
visiting
dairy
farms
and
showing
farmers
how
to
improve
their
cows’
living
conditions.Their
advice
and
information
is
available
around
the
world
on
their
website.
One
important
area
for
discussion
is
how
to
prevent
leg
pain,a
condition
also
called
lameness.Nigel
Cook
is
with
the
Dairyland
Initiative.“Lameness
impacts
everything
a
cow
gets
to
do
in
her
day.It
impacts
the
way
she
rests,the
way
she
milks,the
way
she
eats,her
ability
to
reproduce
and
ultimately
her
ability
to
stay
on
the
farm.”
Speaking
in
a
cow
barn,Cook
explains
that
a
bed
of
sand
can
provide
a
good
place
for
cows
to
lie
down
during
the
day.
The
deep,soft
bedding
of
sand
creates
an
environment
where
cows
can
rest
half
the
day,and
that
is
incredibly
important
to
cows.
The
researchers
advise
farmers
to
provide
bigger
stalls,the
areas
where
cows
are
kept
in
a
barn.They
also
say
farmers
should
use
more
fans
to
keep
the
animals
cool,and
feed
all
their
cows
at
the
same
time.
And
researchers
say
it
is
a
good
idea
to
keep
cows
with
their
usual
group
of
friends
when
it
comes
time
for
them
to
give
birth.This
helps
lessen(缓解)
the
stress
for
the
cows.
Mitch
Breunig
owns
the
Mystic
Valley
Dairy
in
the
U.S.state
of
Wisconsin.He
says
he
used
the
advice
to
improve
the
conditions
for
his
400
cows.“If
you
take
away
their
stress,they
actually
produce
more
milk.And
then
the
other
thing
that
actually
is
interesting
is
that
they
do
it
by
eating
less
feed.”
Since
he
made
the
changes,Breunig
says
the
daily’s
production
has
increased.His
cows
have
gone
from
producing
49
liters
of
milk
a
day
to
almost
57
liters.
Also,his
cows
have
fewer
injuries
and
live
about
a
year
longer
than
before.That
is
good
for
the
animals,and
for
people,too.
