题目:
Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essential to one's life.Eating breakfast at the start of the day,we have been told,and told again,is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people,the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure.So in spite of all the efforts,they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983,the latest year for which figures could be obtained,the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33%—from 8.8 million to 11.7 million—according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America. For those who dislike eating breakfast,however,there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years have shown that,for grown-ups especially,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect work,”said Arnold E.Bender,former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London,“nor does giving people breakfast improve work.” Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate,and most of the recent work involves children,not grown-ups.“The literature,”says one researcher,Dr Earnest Polite at the University of Texas,“is poor.” 小题1:The main idea of the passage is that _______. A.breakfast has nothing to do with people's health B.a good breakfast used to be important to us C.breakfast is not as important to us as gasoline to a car D.breakfast is not as important as we thought before 小题2:For those who do not take breakfast,the good news is that _______. A.several studies have been done in the past few years B.the omission of breakfast has little effect on one’s work C.grown-ups have especially made studies in this field D.eating little in the morning is good for health 小题3:The underlined part“nor does giving people breakfast improve work”means _______. A.people without breakfast can improve their work B.not giving people breakfast improves work C.having breakfast does not improve work,either D.people having breakfast do improve their work,too 小题4:The word"literature"in the last sentence refers to _______. A.stories,poems,play,etc B.written works on a particular subject C.newspaper articles D.the modern literature of America 小题5:What is implied but not stated by the author is that _______. A.breakfast does not affect work B.Dr Polite works at an institution of higher learning C.not eating breakfast might affect the health of children D.Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London

答案

小题1:D 小题2:B 小题3:C 小题4:B 小题5:C

解析

小题1:D主旨大意题。根据文章第三段For those who dislike eating breakfast,however,there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years have shown that,for grown-ups especially,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.说明现在一些新的研究发现不吃早饭对人的影响不大,故D正确。 小题2:B推理题。根据第三段2,3行for grown-ups especially,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect work说明不吃早饭对人们的影响不大。故B项内容正确。 小题3:C推理题。根据“Going without breakfast does not affect work,”said Arnold E.Bender,former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London,“nor does giving people breakfast improve work.”说明说明他们认为不吃早饭不会影响工作,吃了早饭也改善不了工作,故C项正确。 小题4:B推理题。根据文章最后一段可知这里的“The literature”在指以前的所写认为不吃早饭有很害的作品。 小题5:C推理题。根据最后一段and most of the recent work involves children,not grown-ups.说明该研究涉及的是成年人,而不是儿童,故不吃早饭可能对儿童有较大的影响,故C项正确。
