Ⅲ.閱讀理解
A
For thousands of years humans have used herbs, roots, and other things from nature to cure disease. Scientists looking for new cures often visit traditional healers. They find out what plants are used in healing. Then they look at what the plant contains. They find the active ingredient, which is the chemical in the plant that works to heal. Many of the drugs we use, including aspirin, have come from these natural medicines.
In recent years, many people in the US have taken what are legally known as dietary supplements(補藥). They may be vitamins or minerals. They may be herbs that help with health problems, such as depression. Some of them are teas. Others are capsules or tablets. They are sold in natural food stores, drug stores, and groceries. Most people think that because these products are natural they are also safe. This is not always true. There are many plants that are poisonous. There are others that have bad side effects.
The New England Journal of Medicine publishes medical research. A recent edition called for the government to regulate dietary supplements. Several doctors wrote to the Journal and told of bad experiences people have had with dietary supplements.
Dietary supplements aren't tested in the same way as drugs. There is not always proof that the supplement really does what it is supposed to do. There is also a problem with purity of the supplements. Supplements have been found to contain things that are bad for the body. For example, the California Department of Health found that of 260 herbs grown in China, one third contained heavy metals. These are minerals such as lead and mercury(水銀). They are very poisonous, even in tiny amounts.
1.The scientists study the cures from the healers in order to________.
A.find out if the plant is poisonous
B.find out what in the plant works to cure disease
C.look for aspirin in the plant
D.make sure that the plant can cure disease
解析:細節理解題。根據文章第一段內容得知,科學家們先發現用來治病的藥
物,然后再弄清楚植物到底含有什么成分在治療中起作用。
答案:B
2.We can infer from the second paragraph that________.
A.it is legal to take dietary supplement in the USA
B.supplements are safe because they are natural medicines
C.all the supplements are poisonous
D.none of the supplements has bad side effects
解析:推理判斷題。根據第二段可知,在美國吃補藥是合法的,其余選項均不符合文意。
答案:A
3.The underlined word “regulate” in the third paragraph means________.
A.punish
B.remove
C.control
D.manage
解析:詞義猜測題。由上下文和本句句意得知,政府需要“規范”補品市場。
答案:C
4.The problem with dietary supplement may be in that________.
A.the supplements can't be tested like drugs
B.the supplements may contain something useless
C.the supplements may be polluted seriously
D.there is no clear evidence that the supplement does work well
解析:推理判斷題。從文章最后一段可以看出,美國的補藥存在測試、藥效、純度等很多問題。
答案:D
5.Which one of the following is NOT right according to this passage?
A.Scientists think herbs, roots can be used to cure disease.
B.People believe dietary supplements contains vitamins and minerals.
C.It is right that the dietary supplements are always safe.
D.Dietary supplements are harmful to your health.
解析:正誤判斷題。人們普遍認為,以草本為主的中藥或補品對人體沒有什么害處,但是從作者的觀點來看,這種看法是錯誤的。
答案:C
B
I was very naive(天真的) when I started high school.On the first day I didn't realize there was a right way to wear a school hat.In fact,on that first day I did a lot of things wrong—like being the only person in the school who had a tongue ring.That ring made me considered a troublemaker,and by the first break I was given life membership to the “out” crowd.So I put my hair into my hat and took out the tongue ring.
It seemed more important to be like others than finding out what it meant to be me.I spent all my energy trying to conform.I couldn't work out why I was so unhappy when I'd achieved what I thought I wanted.
After many tears and sleepless nights,my teacher took me aside and asked why I was upset.I told him though I tried to fit in at school,I still felt unhappy.He asked me why I cut my hair off,and I told him that I wanted the same kind of hairstyle that the other girls had.
He said,“You've started doing things to please other people.If you don't do it for yourself,you will always feel upset.If the people at school don't like you for who you are,then it's their problem.”What he said was true.I started trying to do things for myself.After that I felt a lot better.
語篇解讀:從小學升入中學,面對不同的環境,看看作者是怎樣適應這個過程的。
6.From the second paragraph,we can learn that ________.
A.the other students didn't like the author
B.the author didn't wear a hat on the first day
