Ⅲ.阅读理解
Weighing too much can damage your health，and obesity is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world.
Sleep might be one answer to the problem.A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds.In the United States today，some 9 million children over the age of 6 are obese (too fat)．
Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more，but scientists have had a tough time determining“which_came_first，the_chicken_or_the_egg”，says Julie C．Lumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.In other words，it hasn’t been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping，or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain.Both scenarios (情况) seemed equally possible.
To get a better idea of which causes which，Lumeng and his colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States.The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year.Three years later，the parents answered the same questions.By sixth grade,18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese.The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students’race or gender.It also didn’t matter how strict their parents were.Obesity struck all of these groups equally.
Instead，sleep seemed to be the key factor.Over the 3 years of the study，the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night.Some kids，however，slept a lot more—or less—than others.For the sixth graders，every hour of sleep above the 9.5hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese.Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders.Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity by third grade.
“I expected we’d find that this (sleep link with obesity) was just a_bunch_of_bunk，” says Lumeng，a pediatrician.But their findings were convincing.No matter how her team looked at the link，“we couldn’t make it go away.”
1．According to the research，________.
A．9 million people in America have a weight problem
B．not enough sleep contributes to a gain in weight
C．sixth graders need more sleep than third graders
D．lack of sleep has become the most deadly killer
2．The statement “which came first，the chicken or the egg” suggests that________.
A. scientists are sure about the causes of children’s obesity
B．it’s easy to decide the cause and effect of this problem
C．scientists are still confused about the cause and effect of the problem
D．you’ll develop obesity if you eat chicken and eggs
3．Recent studies show that a child’s weight is influenced by the________.
A．amount of sleep B．parents’attitude to him
C．race or gender D．performance in school
4．The underlined part in the last paragraph most probably means something________.
A．acceptable B．understandable
C．reliable D．unreasonable
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．C 句意为：他面临着养活妻子及三个孩子这样一个大家庭的沉重负担。be faced with面临，面对。
2．D 句意为：自从退休搬到乡下后，史密斯先生一直过着丰富多彩的生活。every since自从，表示从过去开始到现在的一种状况，常和完成时连用。as if好像；now that由于，既然；in case以防。
3．C 句意为：英国和许多其他工业国家一样，在过去的百年中经历了重大的变化。句子的主语是Britain，故谓语动词用单数，可排除A、B。in common with和……一样；instead of而不是。根据句意可选C。
4．B 句意为：关于这项工程我的观点和你的相反，也就是说，我一点也不赞成你。
5．A situated意为“坐落于”，过去分词形容词化作定语修饰Qingdao。
6．C not a bit和not at all都是“一点也不”的意思。根据语境，应该用not a little，意思是“很，非常”。
7．C across表示“在……对面”，如：从湖的对面，可以说from across the lake；而through则表示从内部穿过。
8．D off表示“in the sea but not far from the coast”，而on表示“在……之滨/河畔”。
9．D on the other hand另一方面；as a result结果；for a start首先；in other words换句话说。句意为：——你怎么看莎士比亚的戏剧？——很有趣，但另一方面，很难懂。
10．C 本题考查倍数的表达法：“倍数＋as＋adj./adv.＋as”，表示“……是……的几倍”。
11．C be known as作为……出名；be known for因为……而出名；be known to sb.为某人所熟知。句意为：作为一名著名作家，金庸原名查良镛，以他的精彩作品而为中国人所熟知。
12．A 表示地点的介词或副词短语放在句首，句子用全部倒装语序，故two towns为句子的主语，根据主谓一致原则可排除B项和C项。that不引导非限制性定语从句，故选A。
13．B 句意为：你可能遇上一种情况，使你不得不立刻做出决定。condition条件，state状况，form形式，situation情况，状况，局面，符合题意。
14．A symbol象征；sign迹象；signal信号；example例子。根据句意“老虎被认为是森林之王，因为它是勇气和力量的象征”，可知答案为A。
15．A off指在离陆地不远的海上；而on与along均指沿着海岸的地方。
Ⅱ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 本文以作者的亲身经历告诉我们这样一个道理：语言的力量是强大的，它可以伤害别人也可以治愈受伤的心；所以无论什么时候，我们都要慎言，特别是对我们最亲近的人。
1．D 根据后面的other things可知，这里表示转折关系。
2．A draw my attention的意思是“吸引我的注意力”，即当我长成少年，其他一些事情吸引了我的注意力。
3．B 根据第二段第二句话中的friends可知答案。
4．C devote...to是固定搭配，意思是“投入……做某事”，即我为什么要花费整个星期日和他骑车啊。waste sth.on浪费……在某事上。
5．A 当我表现出冷漠时，父亲也不吱声。keep silent保持沉默。
6．B in case意思是“以防(万一)”。当他计划自行车旅行的时候总会让我知道，万一我也想去。
7．A (be) in low spirits是固定短语，意思是“情绪低落”。由空后“我的两个朋友去看电影却没叫我”可知答案。
8．C 父亲进了我的房间。
9．A 根据前面内容可知，此处指父亲问我是否去骑车。
10．D 因为我情绪低落，因此父亲跟我说话时，我不耐烦地喊道(shouted)：“让我一个人待着。”
11．B 根据本段第一句话可知，这时候是早晨。
12．C 警察打电话通知(inform)我们，说父亲出了交通事帮。其他几项不合题意。convince表示“说服”；remind提醒；phone打电话，与前面的called重复。
13．A eventually最后；generally一般地；strictly严格地；broadly概括地。根据语意“几天后父亲才最终开口说话”可知，A项正确。
14．B 我轻轻地抓住父亲的手，害怕弄疼他。
15．D mean表示“指的是，意思是”，即作者向父亲解释自己对父亲说“对不起”的原因。这句话的意思是：我指的是我那天(早上)对你说的话。
16．C 父亲的意思是“我记不得那天(早上)的事情了”。
17．D manage a smile的意思是“强作微笑”，符合语意。
18．B 我从来没有想到过让父亲将我单独留下。
19．D 语言有不可估量的力量。由下文．..to choose our words可知答案。
20．C power在这里的意思是“权利”，即每个人都有权选择自己要说的话(作者打算以后更加注意自己说的话)。
Ⅲ.阅读表达
1．B 考查细节理解。本文阐述了睡眠与青少年肥胖之间的关系。第二段说，一项新研究发现，睡眠太少的小学生更容易发胖，美国有900万6岁以上的孩子患肥胖症。从文章的叙述判断选B。
2．C 考查推理判断。第三段画线句子后面又说，“换句话说，究竟是发胖的孩子有睡眠问题，还是睡眠减少导致了体重的增加，这还不清楚。”也就是说，发胖与睡眠减少这二者哪个是原因，哪个是结果，科学家们也还不知道。
3．A 考查推理判断。第三段说，以往的研究表明睡眠不足与发胖有联系，但科学家不知道哪个是原因，哪个是结果；第五段开头提到研究的结论：睡眠似乎是主要因素，也就是说该研究表明，孩子的体重受睡眠时间长短的影响。
4．D 考查词义猜测。后文说，“但他们的研究结论却很有说服力。”由此可推知，画线部分的含义应该是D：他们本来希望这种说法是错误的，可是研究结论却让人不得不相信。因此该部分的含义是D。
