2、ely, many people in the US take too many bites. Instead of staying clean the plate, perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow.According to news reports, US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies. A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the
3、 amount recommended by the government, according to a USA Today story. Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to give them that. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.Barbara Rolls, a nutrition professor at Pennsylva
4、nia State University, told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline began to expand.Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions.

5、t industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believe restaurants serve portions that are too large; 23 percent had no opinion; 20 percent disagreed.

6、 prefer large portions.

9、盤飯菜，其量是政府推薦的2至4倍。5. Its just that, after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their plate hardly seems like agood deal. 事情是這樣的，美國工人覺得做許多個小時低收入的工作下來，盤子里的飯菜量小有點不合算。練習(xí)：1. Parents in the United States tend to ask their childrenAto save food.Bto wash the dishes.C not to waste food.Dnot to eat t
10、oo much2.

13、ant to save money for their children答案與題解:1. C 本題問的是:美國父母總是叫他們的孩子干什么?文章開頭說到，每個美國孩子都能從父母或爺爺奶奶那里聽到這樣的話，吃光你盤子里的東西，做清盤俱樂部的成員。這些話表達(dá)的意思就是不要浪費糧食。因此 C 是正確的答案。2. A 本題問的是:美國飯館為什么飯菜給得多？第二段相關(guān)的話是這么說的：美國人在傳統(tǒng)上把東西值不值是跟數(shù)量聯(lián)系在一起，因此大多數(shù)的飯館給的量大。這些飯館樂于讓顧客們抱怨飯菜給得太多而不樂于讓他們抱怨飯菜給得太少。所以 A 是正確的答案。3. D 本題問的是：20 世紀(jì) 70 年代發(fā)生了什么？文章第
14、三段是這樣說的：一位賓州大學(xué)營養(yǎng)教授，Barbara Rolls ，告訴今日美國20 世紀(jì) 70 年代飯館給的飯菜的量開始增加，與此同時，美國人的腰圍也開始增大。所以 D 是對的。4. A 本題問的是：調(diào)查報告說明了什么？選項 B、C和 D 所說的數(shù)字不對。因此唯有 A 是正確的。A說的是：許多美國窮人希望量大。這個信息可以在第四段中找到。相關(guān)的句子是這么說的：許多吃不起精美正餐的美國人仍然要量大。5. C 本題問的是:下面的哪種說法不帶合美國工人的實際情況？ C 說的是：他們不想做吃得健康的人。這個說法是不對的。最后一段的第一句話是這么說的：美國工人不是不想做吃得健康的人。因此 C 正確。第
15、十九篇 Prolonging Human LifeProlonging human life has increased the size of the human population. Many people alive today would have died of childhood diseases if they had been born 100 years ago. Because more people live longer, there are more people around at any given time. In fact, it is a decrease
16、 in death rates, not an increase in birthrates, that has led to the population explosion.Prolonging human life has also increased the dependency load. In all societies, people who are disabled or too young or too old to work are dependent on the rest of society to provide for them. In hunting and ga
17、thering cultures, old people who could not keep up might be left behind to die. In times of famine, infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved, whereas if the parents survived they could have another child. In most contemporary societies, people feel a mo
18、ral obligation to keep people alive whether they can work or not. We have a great many people today who live past the age at which they want to work or are able to work; we also have rules which require people to retire at a certain age. Unless these people were able to save money for their retireme
19、nt, somebody else must support them. In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near poverty. Older people have more illness than young or middle-aged people; unless they have wealth or private or government insurance, they must
20、 often go on welfare if they have a serious illness.When older people become senile or too weak and ill to care for themselves, they create grave problems for their families. In the past and in some traditional cultures, they would be cared for at home until they died. Today, with most members of a
21、household working or in school, there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person. To meet this need, a great many nursing homes and convalescent hospitals have been built. These are often profit-making organizations, although some are sponsored by religious and other nonprofit gr
22、oups. While a few of these institutions arc good, most of them are simply dumping grounds for the dying in which care is given by poorly paid, overworked, and under-skilled personnel.詞匯：dependency / dipend?nsi/ n.依賴性contemporary / k?ntemp?r?ri / .現(xiàn)代的obligation / ,?bliei?n / n. 義務(wù)insurance / in?u?r?n

Prolonging human life has increased the size of the human population:延長人類生命的結(jié)果使得人口的數(shù)量有了增加。句中的 prolonging human life是動名詞短語。由
24、動名詞短語作句子的主語時，句中動詞必須用單數(shù)形式。如 : Collecting stamps is his hobby.2. Many people alive today would have died of childhood diseases if they had been born 100 years ago:如果今天活著的很多人生于一百年以前，他們會死于各種兒童疾病。3. Because more people live longer, there are more people around at any given time:因為有更多的人壽命更長，所以在任何一個特定的時間里的
25、人也就更多。4. the dependency load: 撫養(yǎng)人口數(shù)量。5. In times of famine: 在饑荒年代6. go on welfare : 靠福利救濟(jì)go on 有許多意思，其中的一個意思是依靠過活。例:Many people go on welfare when jobs become scarce.(工作難找時，許多人靠政府救濟(jì)金過日子。)7. grave problems: 嚴(yán)重的問題8. convalescent hospitals: 康復(fù)醫(yī)院;療養(yǎng)院9. profit-making organizations: 贏利機(jī)構(gòu)10. dumping ground
26、s: 垃圾場練習(xí):1. The writer believes that the population explosion results fromA an increase in birthrates.B the industrial development.C a decrease in death rates.D cultural advances.2. It can be inferred from the passage that in hunting and gathering cultures A it was a moral responsibility to keep old
27、-aged people alive.B infants could be left dead in times of starvation. C parents had to impart the cultural wisdom of the tribe to their children. D death was considered to be freedom from hardships.3. According to the passage, which of the following statements about retired people in the United St
28、ates is true?A Many of them have a very hard life.B They cannot live a decent life without enough bank savings.C They rely mainly on their children for financial support.D Most of them live with their children and therefore are well looked after.4. In Paragraph 3, the phrase this need refers toA the
29、 need to prolong the lives of old people.B the need to enrich the life of the retired people.C the need to build profit-making nursing homes.D the need to take care of a sick and weak person.5. Which of the following best describes the writers attitude toward most of the nursing homes, and convalesc
30、ent hospitals?A Sympathetic.B Unfriendly.C Optimistic.D Critical.答案與題解 :1. C 第一段最后一句說： In fact, it is a decrease in death rates, not an increase in birthrates, that has led to the population explosion. 事實上，是由于死亡率的下降，而不是出生率的上升，導(dǎo)數(shù)了人口爆炸。因此，選項 C是正確答案。2. B 第二段第四句說： In times of famine, infants might be al
31、lowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved, whereas if the parents survived they could have another child. 在災(zāi)年，可能會容忍嬰兒死亡，因為，如果他們的父母餓死了，他們也無法生存，而如果父母生存下來可重新生兒育女。因此，選項 B是正確的答案。3. A 第二段倒數(shù)第二句是這么說的：In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are
32、 so little that they must live in near poverty. （在美國，許多退休人員依靠社會保障金生活，其數(shù)額之小差不多使人窮困潦倒。）可以看出，在美國許多退休人員的生活是很艱難的。這正是選項A表達(dá)的意思，因而選項A是正確的答案。4. D 第三段第三句：Today, with most members of a household working or in school, there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person. （當(dāng)今，由于家庭中大多數(shù)人都出去工作或上學(xué)，家里
33、常常沒有人來照顧有病或虛弱的人。）this need 出現(xiàn)在下面這個短語中：To meet this need（為了滿足這種需要），它指句子前面的care for a sick or weak person。這正是選項D表達(dá)的意思。5. D文章昀后一句說 : most of them are simply dumping grounds for the dying in which care is given by poorly paid, overworked, and under-skilled personnel.大多數(shù)機(jī)構(gòu)只不過是傾倒垂死的人的垃飯場，所謂的照顧都是由收入低、超量工作、技術(shù)水平低下的人員提供的。作者如此措辭顯然是對大多數(shù)機(jī)構(gòu)的強(qiáng)烈批評。因此，選項 D是正確答案。
