第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It takes more than just practice to become an Olympian. Gold medal performances require some serious nutrition. Have you ever wondered what these successful athletes eat to stay in peak shape?
Keri Glassman, a registered dietitian and founder of Nutritious Life Meals, appeared on “Good Morning America” today to give you a glimpse into the diets of some top athletes. Some of their meals could surprise you.
Crazy Calorie Count
Glassman said Olympians eat a lot of food- quantities that for ordinary people would constitute pigging out. One secret of swimmer Michael Phelps’ astonishing performance in the 2008Olympics in Beijing was consuming as many as 12,00 calories in one day.
Athletes can eat like this and not gain any weight because their workouts are intense. According to Glassman, Phelps’ workouts can burn 4,000 to 6,000 calories in a day, and those calories must be added in order to train the following day.
Snacking Secrets
Some athletes eat strange foods that improve their performance. Yohan Blake, the Jamaica sprinter and 100-meter world champion, has stolen champion sprinter Usain Bolt’s thunder on the track during the Olympic trials. Asked about how he gets his energy, Blake answered that he eats 16 bananas per day ,Glassman said.
Jonathan Horton, the lead gymnast on the Us team, has a blood sugar problem. His solution is honey. When he starts to feel shaky at the gym, he takes honey to boost his energy, Classman said.
Foods for Recovery
What are the best foods to help the body recover after harsh competition?
For Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, the recovery meal is grilled chicken breasts with Alfredo sauce, whole-grain spaghetti and a salad with lemon juice and olive oil. Lochte, who recently cut out junk food, candy and soda, has undertaken a strength-training regimen(养生法)that involves flipping tractor tires, and tossing beer kegs, Glassman said.
56.What’s the best title of this passage?
A. Good Diet Makes a True Olympian.
B. Olympians Have Olympic-size Appetites.
C. Olympians’ Strange Eating Habits.
D. The Diet of Some Top Olympic Athletes.
57.What does the underlined sentence probably mean?
A. Ordinary people eat few pigs compared with Olympians.
B. Olympians eat a lot more food than ordinary people.
C. Olympians tend to eat a lot of high-quality food.
D. Olympians eat a large amount of food, just like pigs.
58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Ryan Lochte quit eating junk food , candy and soda for his better recovery.
B. Yohan Blake finally beat Usain Bolt in the 100-meter track in the Olympics.
C. Michael Phelps’ astonishing performance was due to his eating lots of food.
D. Jonathan Horton has a blood sugar problem because of taking too much honey.
59.Which of the following is not the best food to help the body recover?

C. Whole-grain spaghetti. D.A salad with lemon juice.
60.The passage is most likely to be found in .
A. a technical report B. a fashion magazine

B
An Italian couple are becoming the world’s oldest divorcees, after the 99—year—old husband found that his 96—year—old wife had an affair(婚外情) in the 1940s.
The Italian man, called by lawyers in the case as Antonio C，looking through an old drawer when he made the discovery a few days before Christmas.
In spite of the time that had passed since the affair, he was so upset that he immediately asked his wife of 77 years, named as Rosa C, whether it was true, and demanded a divorce.
Stricken by the guilt, she reportedly admitted everything but was unable to persuade her husband to reconsider his decision, though her children also did much more work.
She wrote letters to her lover during a secret affair in the 1940s, according to court papers released in Rome this week , which made people know the truth.
The couple are now preparing to split, though the marriage they built has lasted over nearly eight decades- they have five children, a dozen grandchildren and one great- grand child.
The discovery of the letters was the final problem for their marriage which had already run into difficulty- 10 years ago the husband briefly left their house in Rome and moved in with one of his sons, only to return a few weeks later.
The Italian thought the fierce split resulted from the couple’s southern blood- he is originally from Olbia in Sardinia, while his wife was born in Naples. The couple met during the 1930s when Antonio served as a young officer.
The case appears to set a new record, at least for the age of the oldest figures- the previous oldest couple to divorce were Bertie and Jessie Wood, both aged 98, from the UK.
That pair ended their 36- year marriage in 2009 when they were both two years away from their 100th birthdays. They got married in Elstree, Hertfordshire, in 1972 having both ended previous marriages, before moving to Falmouth, Cornwall four years later.
61. Which is true according to the text?
A. To find his wife’ affair, Antonio C looked through an old drawer.
B. Rosa C’ lover may be Bertie.
C. Rosa C admitted what she did because she was sorry for her guilt.
D. The Italian thought the fierce split resulted from the discovery of the letters.
62. Which word can replace the underlined one in passage5?
A. advertised B. announced C. concluded D. expressed
63. Which of the following best describe Antonio C?
A. a childish man B. a rude man
C. a romantic man D. a stubborn（固执）man
64. The marriage of Antonio C and Rosa C .
A. may come to an end because the husband sticks to his decision
B. appears to set a new record
C. may have lasted over 36 years
D. began in the 1930s before both ending previous marriages
65. This passage may come from .
A. a text book B. a newspaper
C. a history book D. an advertisement
