Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat,is the most important thing you own,so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment. The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Most people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn't need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?
In the modern Western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
When I was at school, our teacher told the class, “You are what you eat.” My friends and I would laugh and call each other “hamburgers” and “biscuits”. Our teacher was trying to show us the importance of eating the right food to stay healthy.
This was a few decades ago when there were big campaigns to make British people healthier. We decided to throw out our chip (炸土豆条) pan which we had used until then to make chips every day for dinner. We replaced our chips with boiled potatoes. We also started using semiskimmed (半脱脂) milk instead of whole milk in our cups of tea and bowls of cornflakes (麦片). At first I felt like I was eating my cornflakes in water and my potatoes had no taste at all. But after a while I started to prefer healthier food because I felt stronger and I didn't get sick so often.
Japanese people are reputed to be the healthiest in the world because of the food they eat. The healthiest Japanese people eat rice and fish and vegetables every day. They drink green tea or water when they're thirsty, and snack on dried fish, fruit or gingko nuts. The traditional Japanese diet is famous for helping you to live a longer and healthier life.
So we have proof that you become what you eat. Can you tell what your friends eat just by looking at them? When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.
21.The teacher says “You are what you eat” because ________.
A. it is important to make your own food
B. we can be eaten
- 13 -
C. our food affects us
D. he makes a laugh at us
答案与解析:C 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Our teacher was trying to show us the importance of eating the right food to stay healthy”推断可知。
22.Why did the author stop drinking whole milk?
A. Because it tasted bad.
B. Because she only wanted half a glass.
C. Because she wanted to drink milk with less fat.
D. Because she felt that whole milk had no taste at all.
答案与解析:C 词义理解题。解答此题的关键是要正确理解semiskimmed milk和whole milk的含义,semiskimmed milk意为“半脱脂牛奶”;whole milk意为“全脂牛奶”。
23.Why are Japanese people said to be the healthiest in the world?
A. Because they don't drink milk.
B. Because of their traditional diet.
C. Because their parents are healthy.
D. Because they eat vegetables but never meat.
答案与解析:B 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“... because of the food they eat”可知。
B
For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.
As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.
However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub's landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drinks available at an affordable price.
That's how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩)is causing 39 British pubs in a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.
This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 p. m.. Previously, with 11 p. m. as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes longterm health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.
In order to save their businesses,pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.
24.The passage mainly tells us something about ________.
A. the past and present of British pubs
B. the decline of British pubs
C. the long history of British pubs
- 13 -
D. the importance of British pubs
答案与解析:A 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了英国酒吧的历史与现状,所以A项符合题意。
25.Why do British people have the habit of gathering in the pubs?
A. To get drunk.
B. To enjoy the historic sites.
C. To make more friends.
D. To socialize and exchange news.
答案与解析:D 细节理解题。从文章第一段最后一句可知,人们去酒吧的主要目的在于社交、交流信息,选D项。
26.Which may NOT be the cause of the decline of British pubs?
A. The credit crunch.
B. The present closing time.
C. The ban of smoking.
D. Having no spare money.
答案与解析:B 推理判断题。从第四段可知,A项“信贷紧缩”、C项“禁烟”和D项“没有余钱”都在该段中提到,而B项内容与英国酒吧的衰落无关,故选B项。
27.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. British people used to like drink slowly
B. closing the pubs early will reduce social problems
C. binge drinking means drinking less beer
D. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。从第五段内容可知,因为以前酒吧晚上11点关门,使英国人形成了豪饮(binge drinking)的习惯,所以英国政府允许酒吧11点之后继续营业,主要目的在于减少人们酗酒豪饮,防止由此造成的健康问题和暴力犯罪,所以选D项。
C
“Old wives' tales” are beliefs passed down from one generation to another. For example, most of us remember our parents' telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking, but others have not passed the test of time.
Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration. Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic (蒜) is good for you, too. It can kill the type of virus that causes colds.
Unfortunately, not all of Mom's advice passed the test of medical studies. For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems? Well, yes and no. Sticky sweets made with grains tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.
Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don't hold_water,_there is still a lot of truth in the old wives' tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated (积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care. We should respect this knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false.
28.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Eating garlic is good for our eyes.
B. Sticky sweets are damaging to our teeth.
C. Swimming after a meal is dangerous.
D. Carrots prevent people from catching colds.
答案与解析:B 推理判断题。由第三段的最后一句可知本题选B。
- 13 -
29.The author develops the third paragraph mainly ________.
A. by cause and effects
B. by order in space
C. by order in time
D. by examples
答案与解析:D 推理判断题。通读第三段可知本段是通过举例进行说明的,故本题选D。
30.The underlined phrase “hold water” in the last paragraph most probably means “________”.
A. to be believable B. to be valuable
C. to be admirable D. to be stable
答案与解析:A 词义猜测题。文章中本句意思是:即使科学能告诉我们那些“老人言”是不值得相信的,但“老人言”中还有很多正确的东西。hold water在此处意思是:能装水的;值得相信的,选A。
31.What is the author's attitude toward “old wives' tales” in the text?
A. Subjective. B. Objective.
C. Dissatisfied. D. Curious.
答案与解析:B 推理判断题。根据文章第三、四段可知作者对于“老人言”持客观态度,故本题选B。
D
A great white shark in a California aquarium (水族馆) attacked two soupfin sharks, causing their deaths. The first attack came on February 23, and the second March 15. The attack was not a natural action for food, but out of response when the two sharks swam too close to the great white. The great white has not attacked other fellows, and officials have moved other soupfin sharks to another tank (贮水池) for their safety.
These attacks have given rise to calls for the freedom of the 88pound, 5foot3inch shark. The aquarium houses the shark in a milliongallon tank. However, according to experts, the tank is not big enough for the shark. Its nose is bloody from striking the glass of the aquarium. Great white sharks in the wild have a huge amount of migration, sometimes traveling 50 miles a day. Because the shark is still young, there is possibility of his growing. As it grows, it can become more troubled with the limited space.
Aquarium officials say that keeping the shark in the aquarium allows them to study behavior that they cannot study with free great white sharks. With the studied behavioral patterns, scientists believe they can then help great white sharks in the wild.
Since the shark has been on display, aquarium attendance has increased. The oneyearold shark is the longest surviving great white living here. It has been at the Monterey Bay Aquarium for six months. Other great whites have not survived for longer than 16 days.
32.The great white shark attacked two soupfin sharks because ________.
A. it was too hungry
B. the aquarium is not big enough
C. they fought against each other for food
D. the soupfin sharks were too close to it
答案与解析:D 事实细节题。从第一段第三句“The attack was not a natural action for food, but out of response when the two sharks swam too close to the great white.”可得出答案为D。
33.If the great white shark still stays in the aquarium, it would probably ________.
A. eat more soupfin sharks
B. stop growing in the future
- 13 -
C. be killed by other sharks
D. feel less and less comfortable
答案与解析:D 事实细节题。从第二段最后一句“As it grows, it can become more troubled with the limited space.”可知,狭小的生存环境将给这个大白鲨带来越来越多的困难。故选D。
34.According to aquarium officials, what can be learned?
A. The great white shark will be set free very soon.
B. The great white shark can live longer in the aquarium.
C. The great white shark should be kept in the aquarium.
D. The great white shark has been used to living in the aquarium.
答案与解析:C 推理判断题。从第三段可以判断出水族馆官员的态度是:他们希望把这头大白鲨留在水族馆里做科研活动。
35.Which would be the best title for this text?
A. California Aquarium Houses Sharks
B. A Shark Killed Two Other Sharks
C. Ways for Sharks to Live Longer
D. Behavior Studies on Great White Sharks
答案与解析:B 主旨大意题。B项准确反映了本文的主要内容:大白鲨的生存环境需要改善。

61.an 考查不定冠词。句意为:郑希雨在北京中心商业区一间办公室工作。根据语境。此处表示泛指,故用不定冠词,又因office的首字母音素是元音,故用an。
62.it 考查固定句型。句意为:每天,她都要花费大约40分钟的时间坐公交车上班。“It takes sb. some time to do sth.”意为“做某事花费了某人多少时间”。此处it是形式主语,而真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。
63.switching 考查动名词形式作宾语。句意为:但她正在考虑转换一种交通方式——自行车。think of是一个动词短语,后接名词或动名词作宾语。
64.because 考查原因状语从句。句意为:当她买衣服的时候,她只买纯棉的,因为制作纯棉衣物时耗费更少的碳。前后两个部分为因果关系。下文中的“...because livestock (家畜) can...”也为此空的填写提供了依据。
65.to 考查介词。句意为:吃饭时,她只吃蔬菜,因为家畜能够引起目前大部分的环境问题。make contributions to意为“为……做出贡献,导致……”。
66.have developed 考查主谓一致及现在完成时。句意为:最近的一项调查显示,被问卷调查的17000人中78%的人已经在日常生活中养成环保的习惯。so far一般与现在完成时连用。根据语境,此处应用复数形式,故填have developed。
67.social 考查词性转换。句意为:在许多流行的社交网站上,人们提倡低碳的生活方式。此处应填形容词作定语修饰名词。
68.will become 考查一般将来时。句意为:他们希望这种生活方式将在某些群体中不仅仅只是成为一种趋势。根据语境,此处表示将来,故用将来时。
69.biggest 考查形容词的最高级。句意为:中国已成为第二大温室气体排放者。“序数词+最高级”表示“第几最……的”。
70.to delay 考查动词不定式作定语。句意为:专家说在努力减少碳排放方面应毫不拖延。to delay在句中作定语修饰time,表示将来的动作。

Travelling
Travelling is a very good activity. When you are fed up with your work and study and when you are free, you can go to a beautiful place to enjoy the beauty of nature and the special character of other cities. You can breathe fresh air, meet different people and make friends with them. During the travel, you will forget your tiredness and trouble and build up your health.
However sometimes, travelling is not an enjoyable thing. For example, the weather

can be changeable. You may be caught in the rain and may catch a cold while travelling. The worst thing is that you may have your money stolen and you may have an injury. All these are terrible things which can happen to a tourist.
Therefore, when you are going on a trip, you must prepare yourself carefully. Firstly, you must have clear information about the weather. Secondly, you should choose a good companion so that you can help each other. Thirdly, you must be careful everywhere and try to avoid accidents. If you do like that, you will surely enjoy your trip.
