解析
试题分析:本文叙述了美国人的饮食变化,他们越来越重视食物的营养价值和对健康的影响,他们去超市买东西要仔细看一下标签,他们愿意买不含化学物质的食品,有的人还愿意品尝外国的大餐。
小题1:因为空格前面有冠词,后有名词所以判断这里该用形容词,句意:一个是日益增长的有营养价值的食品的意识;根据an increasing interest 也可判断与increasing同一的词,所以用growing,故选E。
小题2:根据Also more and more Americans have become interested in food from other countries. 来自国外的食品所以用international,故选H。
小题3:这是固定短语be concernedabout关心;美国人越来越关心健康,故选C。
小题4:根据the package over to read the labels carefully.这里是turn over翻过来,他们要翻过来仔细地看一下标签,故选A。
小题5:这里是定语从句,先行词是food,关系词在从句中作主语,food与动词之间是被动关系,这里必须用谓语动词的过去分词,所以只有F、J和G,根据句意应该是食物被生产出来,故选G。
小题6:另外一组美国人被称为素食者,已经决定不吃肉,这里Americans与call之间是被动关系,这里是过去分词短语作定语,故选J。
小题7:他们出去到国际的餐馆迫切想尝吃一下不熟悉的菜,根据句意故选B。
小题8:在美国,日本、法国、意大利、希腊和许多其他国家的食谱都是受欢迎的,根据句意故选I。
小题9:人们过去常常说美国人吃的都是没有兴趣的不健康的食品,但是这种现象在过去的十年里已经发生了很大改变,故选F。

核心考点
举一反三
A. Weather is to blame B. Divided opinions C. Inheriting(遗传) characteristics D. Home of the redheads E. Greater sensitivity to pain F. Gene mutation(基因变异) |
小题1:
Britain may be the most red-headed country in the world. About 1 to 2 percent of the world’s population has red hair, but in the UK the numbers are much higher, with 13 percent of Scots, 10 percent of the Irish, and 6 percent of people in England having red hair, according to the BBC.
小题2:
Scientists have tried to explain why some people have red hair for some time and now they may have found an answer: the dull weather in Britain. The human body needs vitamin D from sunshine, but unfortunately people living in Britain do not have enough of it because of its maritime climate. In fact, Britain gets even more cloud than countries in the far north of Europe. In Sweden, for example, the average daily hours of sunshine is 5.4 . In Scotland it is only 3.1 hours.
小题3:
To deal with this, the DNA of people living in these areas has changed slightly; scientists call this a mutation. Originally, the coloring on our body is a mixture of two kinds of melanin – black melanin is suppressed while only red / yellow melanin is made. The result is red hair, light skin color, freckles and a greater sensitivity to sunlight.
小题4:
However, what’ s more interesting is that the redhead DNA mutation is recessive, which means it is hidden and can often skip generations without showing. At least 1.6 million Scots carry a redhead gene mutation, and most are unaware that they do. This is why a person who does not have red hair can still produce red-haired children if he or she is a carrier of this special DNA.
小题5:
The research on red hair, like many areas of science, is contradictory(不一致). In 2002 researchers showed that redheads are more sensitive to pain, and need more anesthetic during surgery than people with blonde or dark hair. However, in 2005 scientists found that a MCRIR mutation gives redheads a higher tolerance for pain. Research into these aspects of red hair genetics continues. Redheads should though be more careful about their exposure to sunlight as they are at an increased risk of contracting skin cancer. If you are a redhead, the advice is not to stay out of the sun, but to be careful about how much exposure you get, and to cover yourself with a high factor sunscreen.
The Japanese government signed a contract(合同) on Sep 11 with the Kurihara family. It was to pay the so-called “private(私人的) owner” 2.05 billion yen (166 million yuan) to “buy” part of China’s Diaoyu Islands.
Anti-Japan(反日) feelings grew strongly among Chinese people. Many people walked into the streets and shouted out “Diaoyu Islands are China’s.” Some have decided not to buy Japanese products any more. “I am boycotting(抵制) Japanese goods as a show of support. I’ll work hard to make the country much stronger,” Liu Xiushan, 33, a lawyer in Beijing said to China Daily.
However, some didn’t show their anger in the right way. They broke cars and stores of Japanese brands. Some used rude words. These actions are bad for our position and image(形象). Some actions were against law.
Li Jingjun, a 17-year-old high school student in Guangzhou, was shocked by what he learned from TV and the Internet. He joined protests(抗议) in his city on September 15. But he acted differently. He called for rational (理智的) actions.
“We have every right(权利) to say the Diaoyu Islands belongs to us, but we should watch our behaviour(行为). Bad manners can harm our dignity(尊严) and sense of justice(正义感),” said Li Jingjun.
