试题【阅读理解                                        The Best Western New Englander      】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
阅读理解。     根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
     Watching a sporting event with family and friends under the sun is a great experience in summer.
   1   In the United States, heat exposure led to 8,000 deaths between 1979 and 2003. Luckily, a
little prevention can go a long way towards making sure of an enjoyable day.
     Know the danger
     Heat-related illnesses do not require record-breaking temperatures to occur.   2   The body"s
temperature can reach 106 or 107 degrees Fahrenheit on a 90-degree day, creating a potentially
deadly situation. Factors such as age, weight or a medical condition can influence people.
     Drink plenty of water
       3   Sweating is your body"s key way to keep cool, so drink water to stay well hydrated(含水的)
before you feel thirsty. A cool beer may sound perfect on a hot day, but drink responsibly. Alcohol
stops the body"s cooling system and causes you to go to the bathroom frequently.
         4    
     Wear light-colored and loosely fitting clothing, so air can go around your body and help keep you
cool. A hat is a must to help you keep cool, since your head contains many blood vessels(血管), and
sun block(防晒乳) is always a good idea.
     Take action
     What should you do if you are suffering from the heat while watching your favorite event?
     Get up and go. It is a simple piece of advice, but could make the difference between a quick recovery
and something more severe that requires medical attention. The ideal thing is to move yourself from the
position you"re in to an area that is a little cooler.  5  
A. Dress for the occasion
B. Weather-related causes
C. In hot weather, it is essential to stay hydrated.
D. You may miss a little of the action, but it beats missing a lot.
E. But when you add sun exposure to the crowds, the results can be deadly.
F. It is also important to take advantage of services the equipment provides.
G. Temperatures between 80 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit can be dangerous.

purchase an eco-friendly dish soap with the natural fragrance of aloe. If the producer cares about nature
conservation, she will put more trust in this brand.
     2. Anne is a full-time housewife who always manages to live within her means. For example, she
prefers to choose the dish soap that holds out for very long. Besides, the soap with the fragrance of
flowers or fruit is much more to her taste.
    3. Marilyn works as a regional representative of a major company. Occupied with her business as she
is, she often spares some time after work to prepare some desserts. She is keen on trying something new; she is allergic to certain flower and fruit fragrant scents. She needs a dish soap with no harm to her skin.
    4. Margaret has just moved in a fully furnished apartment. But the cupboard in the kitchen is relatively
smaller. Thus, she will have no other alternative but to purchase smaller dining items, such as dish soap in
a smaller bottle. Furthermore, she is an environmental activist.
     5. Kitty serves as a kitchen steward of a fancy restaurant, in charge of cleaning large quantities of oily
dishes every day. She suggests the owner select a dish soap worth the money. It is, by all means, an ideal
choice for her if it features super cleaning power and meanwhile can keep the hands soft, but not dry.
     A. Life Tree Dish Soap
     A few drops of Life Tree Dish Soap will do a nice job on dishes. It comes in a smaller bottle than
other dish soaps, which makes it more convenient for users. Life Tree does not use animal ingredients and
is without a smell. So if you"re looking for a really environmentally friendly dish soap, look at Life Tree.
     B. Method Dish Soap
     Method Dish Soap works safely when used to wash dishes. It is concentrated, so a little goes a long
way. You just need to lift and squeeze it to get a small amount of the soap from the bottle. The soap
comes in various fruit fragrances (香味), such as orange and green apple.
     C. Bio Pac Dish Soap
     Bio Pac Dish Soap , with aloe (芦荟) and tea tree oil, has a fresh smell. It contributes a lot to green
cleaning, for it is made of natural ingredients. What"s more, the company gives 10 percent of its profits to
wilderness protection.
    D. Seventh Generation Dish Soap
     Seventh Generation Dish Soap cleans as well as any other soap. Also, it"s very environmentally friendly. The product is gentle on your hands. For those who are sensitive to certain fragrances, like flowers and
fruit, Seventh Generation is a great choice.
     E. Citrus Fresh Dish Soap
     Pleasantly fresh and cheap, the wonderful formula (配方) of the soap delivers extraordinary cleaning
power to handle even the most difficult jobs. But with extras of aloe, calendula and other natural skin
softeners, it actually helps prevent skin dryness and trouble while you do the dishes.
F. Dish Soap-Mint Sage, 16 oz
    An all-natural dishwashing soap that has long-lasting suds (泡沫) cleans without the harsh ingredients

阅读理解     Among the most popular forms of dieting is the South Beach diet, developed by Arthur Agatston
of Miami, Florida. Dr. Agatston developed the South Beach diet for his patients with heart problems
to lose weight. Since weight matters a lot in keeping heart healthy and traditional low-fat diets were too
difficult for them to stick to, Dr. Agatston decided to create a plan that could help his patients. At first,
the diet was just for his patients. Soon, thanks to his patients" success, the diet became the buzz in
Miami, and eventually, word spread across the nation.
     This diet focuses on a healthy balance between carbohydrates (碳水化合物) and fats. It is based
on eating a combination of "good" carbohydrates and fats, while limiting those "bad" ones. It is divided
into three different phases.
     The first phase lasts for two weeks and is the strictest of the three. During this phase, you are asked
to restrict (限制) all carbohydrates (good and bad). You are allowed to eat all types of fish, cheeses,
eggs, and nuts, and a large number of vegetables. Most dieters can expect to lose between 8 and 12
pounds during this phase.
     During Phase 2, you are allowed to reintroduce some of those carbohydrates that are not allowed
before. You are encouraged to start eating carbohydrates that have a low glycemic index (升糖指数).
But you should keep in mind that the key is moderation (适度). Most people continue to lose 1-2
pounds per week. You continue with this phase until you reach your target weight.
     Phase 3 is designed to help you keep your weight. During Phase 3, you can reintroduce some of
the carbohydrates that have a higher glycemic index, although again, this should be in moderation. Phase
3 is meant to be a way of life.

1. The text is mainly about       .
A. a plan to keep heart healthy        
B. a popular form of dieting
C. how to keep healthy through 3 phases    
D. how to lose weight more quickly

2. What does the underlined part "the buzz" in the first paragraph probably mean?
A. Widely spread news.                
B. A daily hobby.    
C. A useful activity.    
D. A loud noise.  
  
3. During Phase 1, you are advised to       .
A. have some carbohydrates
B. eat a smaller amount of food
C. eat a variety of food except carbohydrates
D. have carbohydrates that have a low glycemic index
