23、r genes. 2 Yet, between 1980 and 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubled too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible. At restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home, so

24、 people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.2. If youre obese, you lack self-control.Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor choices on diet. 3 Even the most vigilant(警覺的) people may not be good c

25、ontrollers of themselves.3. 4 Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of Americans live in the food deserts, about 65 percent of the nations population is obese. For most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the cho

26、ices we make in supermarkets.4. The problem is not that we eat too much, but that we dont exercise.Michelle Obamas Lets Move campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. 5 In fact, although a drop in work-related physical activity may explain up to

29、h Cohen 的A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind Obesity and How We Can End It一書中，作者介紹了人們對肥胖問題的幾種誤解。1.E 【解析】根據(jù)下句由轉(zhuǎn)折意義的內(nèi)容But according to this book, the following are some misunderstandings of obesity or being overweight.（但該書認(rèn)為下面幾點是關(guān)于肥胖的幾點誤解）可知，人們對肥胖問題觀點不一，故E項正確。2.B 【解析】根據(jù)下句內(nèi)容Yet, between 1980 and

30、 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubled too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible.（然而，在1980年到2000年，美國肥胖的人數(shù)就翻了一番。該速度太快，可見肥胖并非遺傳因素所致）可知，此處表示肥胖比例有所增加，故B項正確。3.G 【解析】根據(jù)上句Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor choices on diet

31、.（研究表明，如果我們面臨太多信息，我們很可能會就節(jié)食作出糟糕的選擇）可知，該句應(yīng)表示我們現(xiàn)在的食物如此豐富以致于我們會被引導(dǎo)以自己難以想象的方式去消耗食物，故選G項。5.D 【解析】根據(jù)下句although a drop in work-related physical activity may explain up to 100 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased.（盡管跟工作相關(guān)的體力活動減少導(dǎo)致人們少燃燒多達(dá)100卡路里，但休閑體力活動似乎有所增加）可知，在二十世紀(jì)八十年代

32、和九十年代，人們的體力活動并未明顯減少，故選D項。四、短文改錯The day before Mothers Day，everybody around me was talking about what was most suitable gift they would buy for their mothers.

36、d her all she had done for me.第一處：most前加the。考查冠詞。母親節(jié)前一天，我周圍的所有人都在談?wù)撌裁词撬麄儗槟赣H買的最合適的禮物。根據(jù)句意可知，此處為形容詞的最高級，故在most前加the。第二處：werewas。考查主謂一致。動名詞短語Buying flowers作主語時謂語動詞需用單數(shù)形式，故將were改為was。第三處：differentlydifferent?？疾樾稳菰~。修飾不定代詞something需用形容詞。注意：different在此作后置定語。第四處：去掉so。考查連詞。as“因為”，引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，故后面的so多余。第五處：sents

37、end?？疾閯釉~。and連接的不是并列的謂語動詞，而是不定式，第二個不定式前的to承前省略了。第六處：whatwhich。考查定語從句。先行詞為suggestions，非限制性定語從句缺主語，故用關(guān)系代詞which引導(dǎo)。注意：what不可引導(dǎo)定語從句。第七處：itthem?？疾榇~。指代前面的suggestions，需用復(fù)數(shù)代詞them。第八處：feelfeeling。考查名詞。feel作名詞表示“觸覺，印象”，而feeling作名詞表示“想法，意見，感覺”，顯然此處要用feeling。第九處：inup。考查動詞短語。give in是“讓步，屈服”的意思，與語義不符。give up意為“放棄”，符合語境要求。第十處：tofor?？疾榻樵~。此處表示我感謝媽媽為我做過的一切。thank sb.for sth.“為某事感謝某人”為固定用法。 6EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F375
