【2019-2020】高考英语一轮阅读理解巩固练(6)(含解析)

专题06 阅读理解（2019-2020）（1）Safety is very important. In schools,however, accidents often happen，so there must be people at school who know how to do first aid.First aid is help that you give to someone who has suddenly fallen ill or who has had an accident. You don’t have to be a doctor or a nurse. Anyone can be a first aider(that’s someone who knows first aid), but in most schools,the only first aiders are teachers. There are a lot more children than teachers in any school, so why not teach the children first aid?That’s exactly what we’ve done in my own school. The school’s team of first aiders now has 32 members, some as young as 11, who know what to do when someone is in danger. Every year, nurses from a local hospital teach our children the necessary skills to save lives. Children are taught what to do, for example, if a friend of theirs has a headache. They also know what to do if someone is in real danger.Recently, two students from my school were able to use their new skills. 13-year-old Mike and his friend Joe were playing together when Joe got a piece of apple in his throat that wouldn’t move. Although his friend was in great danger. Mike was not frightened. With one move, he took the apple out and saved Joe’s life.11-year-old Kim’s story is even more amazing. Her mum suffers from a heart problem. One evening, her mum suddenly fell to the ground. Kim knew exactly what to do. She called an ambulance(救护车）and took care of her mum until help arrived.With the necessary first-aid knowledge, the students did a really good job.1.What may the writer probably be?A.A driver.B. A policemanC. A teacherD. A sportsman2.What should a first aider do when someone has had an accident?A.Take him to do sport.B.Expect the doctors to come.C.Ask the teachers to deal with it.D.Give him necessary help at once.3.Why do nurses from a local hospital go to the writer’s school every year?A.To teach the children skills to save lives.B.To clean and cover cuts for patients.C.To take care of the sick children.D.To build a team of first aiders.4.Who saved Joe when he was in great danger?A.KimB.

2019高考英语一轮阅读理解巩固练（1）李仕才AIf you want to slow aging, you might want to eat less. This finding is good news---if you were a mouse. The researchers studied mice, not people.John Price and other researchers studied two groups of mice. One group was able to eat as much as it wanted. The researchers limited what the mice in the other group ate. Their diet had 35 percent fewer calories than the first group of mice.Price says the mice with the diet restrictions were “more energetic and suffered fewer disease.” They were not just living longer but seemed to stay younger for a longer period of time.The researchers found that fewer calories slow down a natural mechanism in cells called ribosomes. Price explains that ribosomes are responsible for making important proteins in the cells. But with fewer calories, they slow down. This gives the cells more time to repair themselves.The researchers say ribosomes use from 10 to 20 percent of the cell’s energy to make those proteins. Price wrote that “because of this, it i s impractical to destroy an entire ribosome” when it starts to break down. However, “repairing individual parts of the ribosome on a regular basis enables ribosomes to continue producing high quality proteins for longer than they would otherwise. This top quality production, in turn, keeps cells and the entire body functioning well.”Price said, “ribosome is a very complex machine, like a car.” They need “maintenance to replace the parts that wear out the fastest. When tires wear out,” he explained, “you don’t throw the whole car away and buy a new one. It costs less to replace the old tires.”“Food,” he said, “isn’t just material to be burned---it’s a signal that tells our body and cells how to respond.” Price said the findings help to explain how exactly o ur bodies age. And this may “help us make more educated decisions about what we eat.”1.What can we know about the mice with limited calories from the study?A. They can keep healthy easilyB. They need more energy to be activeC. They can look younger than they areD. They will live a longer life like humans2.What will happen to ribosomes if there are fewer calories?A. They will completely break downB. They make proteins in the cells slowlyC. They will produce high quality proteins moreD. They may need more time to repair themselves3.Price explained the ribosomes’ role of repairing themselves by _________.A. telling a storyB. listing basic dataC. making comparisonsD. experimenting on mice4.What does the text mainly deal with?A. Food decides how long you liveB. Can you slow down your aging process?C. Eating less may help you live longerD. Should your diet be reduced for your health?【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。

第一部分选修六Module 1Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·宁夏银川高三三模) Many years ago，my dad was facing a serious heart condition.He was unable to do a steady job.He fell suddenly ill and had to be admitted to the hospital.He wanted to do something to keep himself busy, so he decided to volunteer at the local children's hospital.My dad loved kids.It was the perfect job for him.He ended up working with the seriously ill children.He would talk，play, and do arts with them.One of his kids was a girl with a rare disease that paralyzed(瘫痪)her from the neck down.She couldn't do anything，and she was very depressed.My dad decided to try to help her.He started visiting her in her room，bringing paints，brushes and paper.He stood the paper up，put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint.He didn't use his hands at all.All the while he would tell her, “See，you can do anything you set your mind to.''At the end of the day, she began to paint using her mouth，and she and my dad became friends.Soon after, the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her.My dad also left the children's hospital for a little while because he became ill.Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work，in came the little girl who had been paralyzed and only this time she was walking.She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight.She gave him a picture she had done using her hands.At the bottom it read：”Thank you for helping me walk.''My dad would cry every time he told US this story and so would we.He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctor, and my dad—who died just a few months after the little girl gave the picture—loved every single child in that hospital.语篇解读：这是一篇记叙文。

1America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. but truly can't manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous__with__our__time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes,For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for pure business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!1．The writer of this passage must be ________．A．an American B．a ChineseC．a professor D．a student2．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B．Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C．Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D．Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.3．The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “________”.A．strict with timeB．serious with timeC．careful with timeD．willing to spend time4．A suitable title for this passage would probably be “________”．A．Friendships between ChineseB．Friendships between AmericansC．Americans' hospitalityD．Americans' and Chinese views of friendships2Now，we know that if we do not get enough vitamins，we are at the risk of developing a number of diseases. As a result，vitamin supplements(补品)，though expensive，are popular with people who worry that they are not getting enough vitamins from the foods they eat. But contrary to what many people think，medical experts have found little evidence that most supplements do anything to improve health or protect against diseases.In fact，medical experts warn that taking too many of some vitamins can be harmful. For example，too much vitamin E can cause bleeding. People should discuss what vitamins they take with their doctors，as some vitamins can produce harmful side effects when mixed with medicines.Experts，however，do say that sometimes vitamins can help prevent diseases. People who know they lack a particular vitamin should take vitamin supplements. Some older adults, for example，may not have enough vitamin B12.This is because，as people get older，their body loses its ability to take it from foods. Also，people who spend much time inside may need some extra vitamin D as the skin makes this vitamin from sunlight.Different vitamins are found in different foods. Vitamin A is found in fish liver oil.It's also in the yellow part of eggs. Sweet potatoes，carrots and other darkly coloured fruit and vegetables contain substances that the body can change into vitamin A．Vitamin B12 is found in green leafy vegetables and other foods，like fruit. Vitamin K can be found in pork products.In fact，for most people，a balanced diet can ensure enough vitamins our bodies need. So，it isimportant for us to eat a mixture of foods every day to ensure that we get enough vitamins.5．What is probably talked about before this passage?A．How many vitamins a person's body needs.B．How many vitamins some foods contain.C．The benefits that vitamins bring to our health.D．What people should do to stay healthy.6．From the passage，we can learn that medical experts advise people ________．A．never to take any vitamin supplementsB．to depend only on foods for their vitaminsC．not to take any vitamins together with medicinesD．to consult their doctors before taking vitamin supplements7．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Getting enough vitamins through a balanced dietB．Vitamin supplements do harm to our healthC．Vitamins are important to our healthD．Lacking vitamins can cause many diseases3It is a question that has confused parents for decades: Why do children refuse to eat greens?Now, two American experts believe they have the answer.After studying dozens of babies as they played with various objects, the researchers noted that they were far more unwilling to grasp plants than other things. They believe this is because evolution (进化) has biologically made children be wary of plants.Due to susceptibility (敏感性) to illness or injury in the early years of life, the body has designed an inner defence mechanism (机制) that limits a child's contact with plants, they think. The researchers believe this is why babies in the study were afraid of grabbing plants and why children turn their noses up when faced with a plate of broad beans.The findings are published in a paper by Dr Annie E. Wertz and Dr Karen Wynn, both psychologists at Yale University.They wrote，“Throughout human evolution…plants have been essential to human existence. Yet, for all of these benefits, plants have always caused very real dangers.”“Plants produce toxins (毒素) as defences that can be harmful, or even deadly. Some plants alsoemploy physical defences, such as thorns and poisonous oils that can damage tissues (组织) and cause effects over the whole body.”They added，“We predicted that babies may have behavioural strategies that reduce their exposure to dangers posed by plants by minimizing their physica l contact with plants.”To test their theory, the researchers studied how children aged eight to 18 months old reacted when presented with a variety of objects. It took much longer for children to grab plants; objects that were faked to look like plants also caused a slow response time.For parents attempting to spoon some peas into the mouth of their child, this finding should come as welcome relief.8．What does the underlined word “wary” in the third paragraph mean?A．Curious. B．Afraid. C．Tired. D．Certain.9．What did early humans probably do to survive?A．They chose to make more artificial things.B．They forbade their children to touch plants.C．They chose to have little contact with plants.D．They tried very hard to escape from predators.10．Which is the best title for the text?A．Give children more fun things to doB．The survival instinct (本能) is to blameC．What kind of things are healthyD．Infants of eight to eighteen months old4Any diet on which you live that contains fewer calories than you need to get through the day—like an 800-calorie-per-day diet—can be dangerous. Diets that don't allow any fat also can be bad for you. Everyone needs a certain amount of fat in their diet—up to 30% of total calories—so no one should eat a completely fat-free diet.Don't have diets that restrict(限制) certain food groups, either. A diet that requires you to say no to bread or pasta or allows you to eat only fruit is unhealthy. You won't get the vitamins and minerals you need. And although you may lose weight, you'll probably gain it back as soon as you start eating normally again.Some people start dieting because they think all the problems in their life are because of weight.Others have an area of their life that they can't control, like an alcoholic parent, so they focus on something they can control—their exercise and food intake.People who diet may get lots of praise from friends and family when they start losing pounds, which makes them feel good. But eventually a person reaches a weight level and doesn't lose as much weight as before because the body is trying to keep a healthy weight, so they aren't any happier.Some people may find it hard to control their eating, so they stick with an__extreme__diet for a little while, but then eat tons of food. Feeling guilty about the binge, they use laxatives(轻泻药). Eating too little to maintain a healthy weight or eating only to throw up the calories are both eating disorders, which are harmful to a person's health.11. Which of the following is NOT the reason that some people start and keep dieting?A. They think their trouble comes from their weight.B. They have an alcoholic parent.C. Other people praise them when they lose some weight.D. There is something they can't control except food intake.12. The underlined phrase in the last paragraph refers to “________”．A. a fat-free dietB. a special dietC. eating too muchD. eating too little13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. A person needs about 800 calories each day.B. A person who doesn't eat bread is unhealthy.C. An improper diet may cause eating disorder.D. Fat takes up the most part of calories inside body.14. According to the passage, when people want to lose weight, they should________．A. avoid eating some food that can lead to being fatB. control their eating amount and timesC. have a healthy and balanced dietD. throw up some of what they eat5How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither thedesire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian (营养学家) Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.“Go for nutrient-dense (营养丰富的) foods，” she suggests. “Foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice—the rest is largely coloured sugar water. You just can't compare the value of these foods; the nutrient-dense ones are so excellent，” she emphasizes.Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life—it's the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets, which are based on one or two foods, are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength; they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren't supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.Morrissey also believes that trying to find a diet that will cure your illness, or make yourself a superwoman is a__fruitless__search,__so you will not achieve your aim. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace foods.“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat—they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are the match, the spark, for the fuel，” she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions (正确的比例). And if the fuel isn't there, the spark is useless.”15．From the first paragraph we know that working women ________．A．think cooking is especially complicatedB．do not share the same views with registered dietitiansC．are busy and not interested in cookingD．are likely to eat healthfully16．In Paragraph 4 “a fruitless search” means “________”．A．an effort with no resultsB．a search for a diet without fruitC．a research on fruitless dietsD．a diet serving as medicine17．By saying “if the fuel isn't there, the spark is useless”，the author means “________”．A．carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to support a human lifeB．vitamins and minerals are virtually of no valueC．carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no useD．without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no use6Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that's only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you're in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup then will be served (unless in Guangdong style restaurants) to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings. If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you__should__say__so__in__good__time,__for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.Perhaps one of the things that surprise a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always “public” chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!18. What's the main difference on dinner table between China and the West?A. On Chinese dinner table, chopsticks replace knife and fork.B. You have your own plate of food in the West while in China everyone shares the dishes.C. You're treated to a formal dinner for the first time.D. The host will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.19. According to the passage, we can infer that ________．A. Chinese think it polite to put food into the plates of the guests with their own chopsticksB. Chinese think it impolite for guests to leave food in the plateC. people in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumedD. Chinese all think it impolite for guests to ask for a pair of knife and fork20. The sentence, in Paragraph 2, “you should say so in good time” means “________”．A. you should say so happilyB. you should say so earlyC. you'd better say soD. you should say so kindly7“Clean your plate！”Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent. Often, it is accompanied by an appeal: “Just think about those starving orphans in Africa！” Sure, we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately, many people in the US take too many bites. Instead of staying “clean the plate”，perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow.According to news reports, the US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies. A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the amount recommended by the government, according to a USA Today story. Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to give them that. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.Barbara Rolls, a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University, told the USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline began to expand.Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions. Now, apparently, some customers are calling for this too. The restaurant industry trade believed restaurants serve portions that are too large; 23 per cent had no opinion; 20 per cent disagreed. But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can't afford fine dining still prefer large portions. 70 per cent of those earning at least $150，000 per year prefer smaller portions; but only 45 per cent of those earning less than$25，000 want smaller.It's not that working-class Americans don't want to eat healthily. It's just that, after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal. They live from paycheck to paycheck, happy to save a little money for next year's Christmas presents.21．“Clean your plate！”in the first paragraph means “________”．A．to wash the plateB．not to eat too muchC．not to waste the foodD．to help the starving orphans22．What happened in the 1970s?A．The government recommended serving small portions.B．Americans began to realize the importance of health.C．Health experts persuaded restaurants to serve large portions.D．People in the United States began to gain weight.23．What does the survey indicate?A．Many poor Americans want large portions.B．20 per cent of Americans want smaller portions.C．70 per cent of Americans earn at least $150，000 per year.D．45 per cent of Americans earn less than $25，000 per year.8Food serves as a form of communication in two ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture's celebrations or traditions. The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural (农村的) and urban areas within one country.Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion (时刻) or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition hits its roots in the custom of sharing bread.Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (兴旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (预示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-coloured eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and mooncakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.24．According to the passage, sharing bread________．A．indicates a lack of foodB．can help to develop unityC．is a custom unique to rural areasD．has its roots in birthday celebrations25．The author explains the role of food in celebrations by________．A．using examplesB．making comparisonsC．analysing causesD．describing processes26．What is the passage mainly about?A．The custom of sharing food.B．The specific meaning of food.C．The role of food in ceremonies.D．The importance of food in culture.9Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes.To some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings．Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随机地) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical(完全相同的) twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We wouldsoon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.27．Which of these sentences best describes the writer's point in Para.1?A．To some degree, intelligence is given at birth.B．Intelligence is developed by the environment.C．Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D．Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.28．It is suggested in this passage that________.A．unrelated people are not likely to have similar intelligenceB．close relations usually have similar intelligenceC．the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD．people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence29．In Para.1, the word “surroundings” means “________”.A．intelligence B．lifeC．environments D．housing30．The best title for this article would be “________”.A．On intelligenceB．What intelligence meansC．We are born with intelligenceD．Environment plays a part in developing intelligence答案：1【文章大意】本文通过事例分析说明了中美两国人在看待友谊方面有差异。

2019年高考英语阅读理解一轮练（6）李仕才ALife satisfaction is the way persons evaluate their lives and how they feel about their directions and options for the future. It's a measure of well-being and may be evaluated in terms of mood, satisfaction with relations with others and with achieved goals and self-concepts to cope with daily life. It's having a favorable attitude towards one's life as a whole rather than just an evaluation of current feelings. Life satisfaction has been measured in relation to economy, education, experiences, and residence, as well as many other topics.Life satisfaction can reflect experiences that have influenced a person in, a positive way. These experiences have the ability to motivate people to pursue and reach their goals. As a matter of fact, in these experiences there are two kinds of emotions that may positively influence how people understand their life. Hope and optimism both consist of emotional processes that are usually directed towards the reaching of goals. People who have higher life satisfaction are always full of hope for a better future; additionally, optimism is linked to higher life satisfaction, while pessimism is related to symptoms in depression.The psychologist, Yuval Palgi, studied the old-old-people who were primarily in their nineties. This subject group was found to have thought highly of their past and present, but they thought lower of their future. A large factor that was talked about in life satisfaction was intelligence. The experiments talk of how life satisfaction grows as people become older because they become wiser and more knowledgeable, so they begin to see that life will be better as they grow older and understand the important things in life more. But when they step into their nineties, future becomes a luxury to them.According to Seligman, the happier people are, the less they are focused on the negative.

2019高考英语一轮阅读理解巩固练（1）AIf you want to slow aging, you might want to eat less. This finding is good news---if you were a mouse. The researchers studied mice, not people.John Price and other researchers studied two groups of mice. One group was able to eat as much as it wanted. The researchers limited what the mice in the other group ate. Their diet had 35 percent fewer calories than the first group of mice.Price says the mice with the diet restrictions were “more energetic and suffered fewer disease.” They were not just living longer but seemed to stay younger for a longer period of time.The researchers found that fewer calories slow down a natural mechanism in cells called ribosomes. Price explains that ribosomes are responsible for making important proteins in the cells. But with fewer calories, they slow down. This gives the cells more time to repair themselves.The researchers say ribosomes use from 10 to 20 percent of the cell’s energy to make those proteins. Price wrote that “because of this, it i s im practical to destroy an entire ribosome” when it starts to break down. However, “repairing individual parts of the ribosome on a regular basis enables ribosomes to continue producing high quality proteins for longer than they would otherwise. This top quality production, in turn, keeps cells and the entire body functioning well.”Price said, “ribosome is a very complex machine, like a car.” They need “maintenance to replace the parts that wear out the fastest. When tires wear out,” he explained, “you don’t throw the whole car away and buy a new one. It costs less to replace the old tires.”“Food,” he said, “isn’t just material to be burned---it’s a signal that tells our body and cells how to respond.” Price said the findings help to explain how exactly our b odies age. And this may “help us make more educated decisions about what we eat.”【】1、What can we know about the mice with limited calories from the study?A、They can keep healthy easilyB、They need more energy to be activeC、They can look younger than they areD、They will live a longer life like humans【】2、What will happen to ribosomes if there are fewer calories?A、They will completely break downB、They make proteins in the cells slowlyC、They will produce high quality proteins moreD、They may need more time to repair themselves【】3、Price explained the ribosomes’ role of repairing themselves by _________.A、telling a storyB、listing basic dataC、making comparisonsD、experimenting on mice 【】4、What does the text mainly deal with?A、Food decides how long you liveB、Can you slow down your aging process?C、Eating less may help you live longerD、Should your diet be reduced for your health?【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。
