Unit 1Living well.閱讀理解(2018河北石家莊二中一模)Its 3 oclock and youve been hard at work.As you sit at your desk,a strong desire for chocolate overcomes you.You try to busy yourself to make it go away.But it doesnt work.Here is another situation.Perhaps you are not feeling well.The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup,like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child.Food cravings (渴望) are a strong desire for a specific type of food.And they are normal.Scientists at the website How Stuff Works compare hunger and cravings this way:Hunger is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain.They even call it simply “stomach hunger”.When our stomachs burn up all of the food we have eaten,a hormone sends a message to one part of the brain for more food,which regulates our most basic body functions such as thirst,hunger and sleep.The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat.Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex.It activates(激活) brain areas related to emotion,memory and reward.These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies.Some scientists call food cravings “mind hunger”.People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar,which produce chemicals in the brain.These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.In a 2007 study,researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving”.Thus,the more you deny yourself a food that you want,the more you may crave it.However,fasting is a bit different.They found that eating no food at all for a short period of time lessened food cravings.Therefore,the next time you crave something very specific,know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach.1.What is the function of the first paragraph?A.To remind readers of their own special food.B.To deepen the understanding of hunger.C.To report the discovery of craving study.D.To lead to the topic of the whole passage.2.What do we learn about food craving?A.It shows food is linked to feelings.B.It ensures a person survives hunger.C.It means the stomach functions well.D.It proves the brain decides your appetite.3.Whats the likely result of dieting?A.The decrease of chemicals.B.The increase of the desire for food.C.The refusal of fat and sugar.D.The disappearance of appetite.4.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.The functions of brain areas. B.What hunger is all about.C.The findings of food cravings.D.What dieting may bring us.語篇解讀:饑餓與食物渴望存在區(qū)別。節(jié)食或限制飲食通常會增加食物渴望的可能性,食物渴望也與我們的大腦有關(guān)。答案及剖析:1.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段最后兩句Food cravings(渴望) are a strong desire for a specific type of food.And they are normal.可知,第一段是為了引出整篇文章的話題。2.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar,which produce chemicals in the brain.These chemicals give us feelings of pleasure.可知,食物渴望與情感有關(guān)系。其他選項主要是關(guān)于饑餓而不是關(guān)于食物渴望的。3.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第一句In a 2007 study,researchers at Cambridge University found that “dieting or restricted eating generally increases the possibility of food craving”.可知,節(jié)食會導(dǎo)致對食物欲望的增加。4.C主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段中的Therefore,the next time you crave something very specific,know that your brain may be more to blame than your stomach.可知,本文主要談?wù)摿岁P(guān)于食物渴望的調(diào)查結(jié)果。.七選五(2018福建廈門質(zhì)檢)Each one of us has different natural and acquired abilities.Some learn new languages quickly,and some are more social than others.1. Obviously,people interpret what youre saying in different ways,based on the way they think. 2. While expecting to convince others,we rely on our own thinking tools and strengths.It doesnt matter if youre trying to persuade your boss to adopt a new idea.But when you need to persuade your colleague,switch chairs with your listener and ask yourself what his or her strength is.Sure,you take into account whats important to them. 3. Try to fit someone you work with into the different thinking categoriesindividual thinking or group thinking.To quickly identify if someone thinks better individually or in a group,I ask one simple question: Did you prefer studying by yourself or in a group in high school? Youll find out most people will answer in the blink of an eye. Then how to communicate better after identifying individual or group thinking? 4. Individual thinkers need some time by themselves to digest a new idea.Therefore,try sending them suggestions by e-mail or introduce a new idea and then giving them some time to think about it.Group thinkers will react much better when talking about a new idea.5. When group thinkers ask to talk about something,theyre actually asking you to brainstorm with them to help find a solution using conversation. A.Choose your presentation strategy.B.You can find out which category you belong to.C.It is a challenge to convince people around you.D.So give them opportunities to voice their thoughts.E.But how about understanding how they actually think?F.Most people are more productive when working alone.G.These strengths determine how we think and make decisions.答案:15GCEAD.完形填空(2018山西太原一模)Leslie Morrissettes son,Graham,was 6 years old when he was diagnosed with leukemia(白血病).Throughout Grahams 1 in the hospital,Graham connected with everyone he met,from 2 patients to younger children.“He would 3 other sick children his toys or act silly to make them laugh,” Leslie said.“Grahams special spirit is what keeps me going.He gave me the energy and the 4 to fight with him.” In 1997,when Graham was 8 years old,he passed away. 5 by how Graham lived his life caring about others,Leslie 6 the non-profit Grahamtastic Connection in his honor.The organization provides free technologyincluding computers,iPads,and robotsto children 7 against cancer and other serious illnesses.
