Ⅳ.阅读理解
A few cups of green tea each day may help prevent heart disease，Greek researchers said on Wednesday.A study published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular (心血管的) Prevention showed further evidence of the potential health benefits from tea already linked to a reduced risk of a range of cancers and other conditions.
The study showed that green tea improves blood flow and the ability of arteries (动脉) to relax，said Charalambos Vlachopoulos，an expert at the Athens Medical School in Greece who worked on the study.
Other studies have shown that black tea also has benefits for cardiovascular health.
The Greek team said they believed green tea might be even better because it had higher quantities of beneficial substances called flavonoids (类黄酮)—some of which are lost in the oxidation (氧化) process that black tea undergoes.
Flavonoids are also found in cocoa，tomatoes and grapes.“A couple of cups a day would probably be good for people，” Vlachopoulos said.“This is the first study to show these effects for green tea.”
The researchers gave 14 healthy volunteers either green tea，coffee or hot water and then measured the function of endothelial cells (内皮细胞)．These cells help relax arteries and ease blood flow.“What is important is these effects are evident within 30 minutes，” Vlachopoulos said.
The measurements taken 30,90 and 120 minutes following consumption showed an almost immediate benefit among people who had drunk green tea，he said.While the researchers looked only at a short-term effect，Vlachopoulos said the team’s studies suggest the protection is long-lasting.
“Green tea is consumed less in the Western world than black tea，but it could be more beneficial，”he said.
41．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Benefits from black tea
B．Different kinds of tea
C．Green tea protects against heart disease
D．Green tea reduces the risk of cancer
42．According to the study，green tea can do the following EXCEPT________.
A．improve blood flow
B．benefit cardiovascular health
C．help relax arteries
D．increase the oxidation rate of flavonoids
43．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Green tea is better than black tea because it has been processed.
B．Green tea contains more flavonoids than black tea.
C．Vlachopoulos’s study is based on many years’ research.
D．Vlachopoulos’s study is the first to show green tea’s benefits.
44．We can learn from the passage that________.
A．14 volunteers with heart disease joined in the experiment
B．it takes an hour for green tea to take effect
C．green tea has a long－lasting effect according to Vlachopoulos
D．Westerners prefer green tea to black tea
45．Which one of the following factors is NOT related with the research procedure?
A．The volunteers. B．The drinks.
C．Blood samples. D．Objects for time－measuring.
课时作业答案
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．B　have the privilege of doing意为“很荣幸地做某事”。
2．A　考查动词辨析。句意为：高利率阻止了人们借钱。discourage sb.from...“阻止某人……”符合句意。protect 保护；save 节省；disturb 干扰，均与句意不符。
3．C　考查情景对话。对于第一个说话者所说的事实，第二个人表示赞同，选That’s the case 事实就是如此符合句意。
4．D　主语为the boy，所以谓语动词为单数，排除A和C。go to the sports ground和play football为并列关系，enjoying themselves为现在分词短语作状语。

12．D　句意为：除了基因外，饮食，良好的教育和幸福的家庭环境也是智力形成的因素。in addition to “除……之外”符合句意。in spite of 尽管；in terms of 就……来说；in case of 以免，万一。

Ⅲ.完形填空
【语篇解读】　文章主要讲述了作者在训练运动员时的一个故事。他所训练的一个铁饼运动员在扔铁饼时总是不能超过111英尺，作者就用撒谎的办法使这个运动员有了自信，从而使她在运动会上取得了114′10″的好成绩。
21．B　从文章的后半部分可知，这个运动员最后取得了很好的成绩，故此处指该运动员的潜力很大，故用large。
22．D　文章后面才提到区运动会的召开，故此时运动会还没有召开，故用before，意为“在区运动会开始之前”。
23．A　此处Lucy问作者周日她能不能来学校加练，表示请求应该用could。其余的不符合此处的语境。
24．B　文中提到的时间是周末，应该是休息的时间，在周末进行训练，那就是加练，即“extra training”。helpful有帮助的，有益的；extra多余的，额外的；real真的，真正的；regular有规律的，均匀的。
25．C　该空前面提到她在去年的区运动会上得了第二名，就差那么一点而没有能够参加州运动会。narrowly missed意为“以微弱差距错过”。
26．A　句意为“她赢得了每场掷铁饼比赛，除了那场区运动会”。此处except表示“除了”。including 包含；despite 不管，尽管。
27．B　下段中作者提到他对Lucy不能达到111英尺感到很疑惑，由此可知Lucy在运动会上的成绩总是在106′1″和110′10″中间变化，故用always表示“一直”，体现作者对这个问题的困惑。
28．D　通过上下两段的意思可知作者对Lucy不能突破110′10″感到很困惑，故用bother烦扰。frighten使惊吓，惊恐，please取悦，shock震惊，不符合语境。
29．A　句意为“为什么Lucy看上去不能将铁饼扔到111英尺呢？”，sb.seems to do sth.意为“某人看上去……”。pretend假装，need需要，ask要求，均不符合文意。
30．B　作者此处对Lucy为什么不能够突破111英尺这一问题进行思考，语境为“这是不是因为心理障碍而不是体力的问题呢？”rather than与其……倒不如，而不是；apart from除了；because of 因为，由于；according to根据。
31．C　作者此时在考虑Lucy不能够掷得更远的原因，上文提到作者怀疑这是由于心理问题，因此此处是说针对这个问题，他决定尝试新的东西，故用new。此处new是形容词作后置定语，修饰something。impossible不可能的；familiar熟悉的；easy容易的，均不符合语境。
32．A　文章后半部分提到“Just 24 hours after I had lied to her”可知此处是说作者决定撒谎。
33．B　作者在验证自己的推断时，要让Lucy再扔几次让他量量，看看有没有进步。measure测量；look看；match使……相配，竞争；take拿走。扔铁饼当然要通过测量得知其距离，故B项符合语境。
34．D　作者让Lucy扔五到六次的铁饼，但是通过测量的结果得知没有一次能够超过前面所扔的距离，因此作者才用撒谎的方式来告诉她她扔的距离。none全部不。其余的选项不符合语境。
35．D　句意为“当我测量最后一次投掷的距离的时候，我故意将卷尺拉长了一些”，下文也没提到Lucy继续掷铁饼，因此这次是她掷的最后一次，故final“最后的”符合文意。
36．B　因为作者此时在骗Lucy，所以说“这次比以前的要远”，farther更远的。higher更高的；bigger更大的；longer更长的。
37．A　Lucy听到自己扔得比以前远了，应当很激动，故用“excitement”。anxiety焦虑，担心；puzzlement迷惑；anger生气。
38．C　通读文章可知Lucy在这次区运动会中赢得了铁饼比赛。 win(在……中)获胜。
39．A　上句提到“Just 24 hours after I had lied to her”，说明这次她真的扔得比以前远四英尺。actually实际上。hardly几乎不；nearly几乎；差不多；only仅仅，均不符合文意。
40．D　句意为“有时候我们会在我们自己心中设定心理障碍”，set放置，设定。break打破，弄破，弄坏；remove除去，迁移，开除；take拿，取。
Ⅳ.阅读理解
41．C　归纳标题题。本文主要介绍了每天喝几杯绿茶有助于预防心脏病。第一段是主题段。
42．D　细节理解题。由第二段的green tea improves blood flow and the ability of arteries to relax以及第三段的black tea also has benefits for cardiovascular health可知，绿茶能够促进血液流动，并能增强动脉疏通能力，对心血管健康也有好处。D项与文章第四段内容不相符。
43．B　细节判断题。由第四段可知，研究人员认为绿茶的心血管保健功效可能会更强，因为绿茶中所含的一种名叫“类黄酮”的有益物质较多，而这种物质在红茶氧化过程中会部分流失。
44．C　细节判断题。 由倒数第二段可知，尽管研究人员只探究了绿茶的短期功效，但维拉科珀罗斯称，他们的研究表明，这种保护功效是长期的。
45．C　细节理解题。从第六、七段可知，实验需要A、B、D三项所表述的三者。C项并未在文中提及。
