Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight.Researchers conclude that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full.However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr.Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style.They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities.Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full.So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped.In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week.The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as highquality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Dont Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food.Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits.Today the rate of obesityor extreme overweightamong adults is only 6%.However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17%and is growing.()1.In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr.Joseph Mercola?AThey go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.BThey squeeze eating between the other daily activities.CThey regard eating as a key part of their life style.DThey usually eat too much canned and frozen food.()2.This text is mainly about the relationship between _.AAmericans and the FrenchBlife style and obesityCchildren and adultsDfast food and overweight()3.This text is mainly developed _.Aby contrastBby spaceCby processDby classification()4.Where does this text probably come from?AA TV interview.BA food advertisement.CA health report.DA book review.【主旨大意】康奈爾大學的一項研究對比了法國人與美國人生活方式和飲食方式的不同。結果表明，生活方式與飲食方式會影響人的體重情況。1【答案】C【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據文章第二段第一句“According to Dr.Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style.”可知，法國人與美國人的區(qū)別在于前者將飲食當作他們生活方式的一部分。故選C項。A、B、D三項都是美國人的生活方式。2【答案】B【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據文章第一段第二句“Now a research by

classification意為“通過分類”。故選A項。4【答案】C【解析】推理判斷題。文章首段就提出人的肥胖與自身的生活、飲食方式有關。末段又提到現(xiàn)在的法國年輕人在擯棄傳統(tǒng)飲食習慣后開始面臨肥胖問題。綜合全文內容可推斷出這篇文章很可能來自一篇健康報道。故選C項。B(2016陜西西安第七十中學11月檢測，C)Night after night, she came to pull the covers up around me and make me feel comfortable in bed, even long after my childhood years.Following her longstanding custom, she would lean down and push my long hair out of the way, then

brow.In my memory, for the thousandth time, I recalled the night my young voice complained, “Dont do that anymore your hands are too rough！” Catching Moms hand in hand, I blurted_out how sorry I was
