考点规范练1（Theme A）Ⅰ.阅读理解(2016重庆一诊)We live in a world where the great majority of our attention is focused on what we can see.Whether we’re watching TV or working on a computer,sight has become the leading sense in modern life.But have we lost touch with our other senses?Dr.Charles Spence of Oxford University thinks so.In his latest report,he argues that the use of all senses is central to health.However,sensory deprivation is common in modern life,and it is harmful to our health.Indeed,we take it for granted that most information we use to understand our world comes through our eyes.But our other senses may be suffering.Consider the sense of touch.According to Dr.Spence,children may grow up “touch-hungry” because they are not getting enough tactile(触觉的) sensations.He suggests that we put more tactile objects into our schools to help develop this sense.Dr.Spence may be exploring something deeper than our five senses.Life in the industrialized world is often far removed from nature,and it is no accident.For example,whether it is day or night no longer matters as much.Video arcades(电动游乐场) are open around the clock.In modern-day casinos(赌场),there are no clocks,no windows.Just the ringing of slot machines and cold hard coins.The owners there want you to lose track of time,and to be cut off from reality.Ironically,most popular video games are those modeled on real-life experiences.You can surf,snowboard or even fish!But again,you don’t feel the rise of the waves,the softness of snow,or the slipperiness of a freshly caught fish.It is upsetting that on weekends we rush to crowded video arcades for unreal experiences.There’s nothing wrong with a little stimulation,but there’s more to life.We mustn’t forget to feed our other senses.Right now,they’re starving,and that may not be good for our health.【语篇导读】本文主要介绍了牛津大学的Charles Spence博士关于感官的发现和观点。

考点规范练3( Unit 3)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2015·河北唐山一模)The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment.These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.David Tilman,a professor of ecology at the University ofMinnesota,America,examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how a diet affected health.He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s.He foundthat as nations industrialized(工业化),population increased and earnings rose,more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.The Western diet is high in sugar,fat,oil and meat.By eating these foods,people began to get fatter and sicker.David Tilman says overweight people are at greaterrisk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes(糖尿病)and heart disease.Unfortunately when people become industrialized,if they adopt this Westerndiet,they are going to have these health problems,especially in developing countriesin Asia.China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20-year period.And that is happening all across the world,in Mexico,in Nigeria and so on.And,a diet bad for human beings,is also bad for the environment.As the world’s population grows,more forests and tropical(热带的)areas will become farmlands forcrops or grasslands for cattle.We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in thefuture from agriculture than that coming out of all forms of transportation right now.Mr.Tilman calls the link between the diet,the environment and human health,“a trilemma”—a problem offering a difficult choice.He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.【语篇导读】《自然》杂志上一篇新的报告指出,西方饮食对人的健康和环境有不良影响,人们应警惕西方饮食带来的危害。
