But do you know it can also make you look good？People who increased their intake over just six weeks developed a healthy glow and appeared more attractive, researchers found. Scientists at St Andrews University found eating them slightly increased yellow and red pigments in the volunteers' skin. They monitored the food intake of 35 people and took pictures of their faces, arms and hands using a sensitive camera at the start，and after three and six weeks. Increasing their intake of greens by 2。
9 portions a day was found to make the person look more healthy and an extra 3。
3 portions could enhance their attractiveness，when their photographs were rated by others。
Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids(类胡萝卜素)，which are known to protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays, and can also prevent age-related diseases including heart disease and cancer. But while it was known eating extreme amounts of certain vegetables such as carrots could turn skin orange，it was not known a small increase was perceptible（被觉察）to others—and was seen as appealing。
2014届高考高三英语二轮专题复习：阅读理解AThe original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax. Although, World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Disney had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn't be enough.Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles. He needed space to build rivers, waterfalls, and mountains; he would have flying elephants and giant teacups; a fairy-tale castle, moon rockets, and a scenic railway; all inside a magic kingdom he called "Disneyland."The search for the best venue for the park ended in the rural Anaheim, California with a purchase of a 160-acre orange grove near the junction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Boulevard.Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954, 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Some 160-acres of citrus trees had been cleared and 15 houses moved to make room for the park. However, when the real designing came around, Disney met with inevitable questions. How do you make believable wild animals, that aren't real? How do you make a Mississippi paddle ship? How do you go about building a huge castle in the middle of Anaheim, California? Disney asked his movie studio staff for answers. The design of Disneyland was something never done before. There would be four uniquely different theme parts: Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland Tomorrow land. Bit by bit, Disneyland got ready for Opening Day. The staff worked around the clock to get ready.But opening day was a terrible disaster. Besides the terrible opening day conditions, the park did eventually pick up. By 1965, ten years after opening day, 50 Million visitors had come through the gates.36. The passage is mainly about___________.A. How Disneyland came into beingB.

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find out the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully. After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short , he has solved the problem.43. By referring to Sam’s broken bicycl e, the author intends to _________.A. illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB. discuss the problems of his bicycleC. tell us how to solve a problemD. show us how to analyze a problem44. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People do not analyze the problem they meet.B. People often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.C. People may learn from their past experience.D. People can not solve some problems they meet.45. As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short” means _________.A. in the short termB. in detailC. in a wordD. in the end46. . In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except .A. recognize and define the problemB. look for information to make the problem clearerC. have suggestions for a possible solutionD. find a solution by trial or mistakeDThe campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the work for US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of his stand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. But what will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations?Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, an African-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times, “Kobe doesn’t have to be e verybody’s role model anymore.”Recent polls（民意测验）also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites “will finally be worked out”. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse(瓦解)of the family unit in black communities.It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse (扭转) such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, says that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities. “That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.”In the opinion of black British politician Trevor Phi llips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.“When the G8 meets, the four most important people in the room will be the president of China, the prime minister of India, the prime minister of Japan and Ba rak Obama,” he told London’s The Times newspaper. “It will be the first time we’ve seen that on our television screens. That will be a huge psychological shift (心理转变) for both the white people and the colored ones in the world.”47. For years, before Obama was elected president of the US, __________.A. Kobe was the only role model for all the blacksB. blacks could only find role models on the basketball courtC. minorities in America couldn’t find role models in their real lifeD. American blacks had no role model who was successful in political area48. According to Bill Bank, ____________.A. it’s better for young blacks to find role models in those who are close to themB. young blacks should not be so much influenced by ObamaC. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their realityD. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans49. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The First African-American PresidentB. America’s New R ole ModelC. Obama-- A Successful Black .D. Choosing a Right Role Model50. What will be the huge psychological shift Trevor mentioned at the end of the passage?A. The other three leaders all support Obama.B. Obama is an African-American president.C. None of the four leaders is white.D. The other three leaders except Obama are from Asian countries.A. ACDBB. ABDC. CACDD.

Rae Armantrout，who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego（UCSD)for two decades，has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, “Versed”。
"I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings，as compared to even the National Book Critics Award，which I was also s urprised and delighted to win,” said Armantrout。
”For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar，and to have this kind of attention，suddenly，with my 10th book，is really surprising。

Children are children after all, and most of them speak their mind. When they are just toddlers（幼儿）, no matter how naughty or rude they are, we think it is amusing to watch them speak like a grown-up. But as they grow, these same kids seem annoying and ill-mannered if they try to sound grown-up.Conflicts often appear between parents and children. Reasoning does not seem to work with them．It's hard to tell who are right and who are wrong. A child of 7-8 always finds some reasons to have a conflict with his parents. Whether it is about some toys, studies, basic affairs, parties or friends, there is always a difference in opinions between them. And it becomes worse when they answer you back. Psychologists say that children should be handled with care. Yes, sure they should be but not at the cost of disrespecting their elders.We are partly responsible for this situation. At an early age we encourage grown-up-like behaviour, just because we find it amusing. The kids on the other hand consider this same behavior as normal and get used to it. And when it is not funny for us any more, we expect them to stop it, but by then it is already too late. Only when they reach a certain maturity will the children realize that answering back and being rude are not acceptable. Until then, most of the time their behavior is difficult to change, unless by force. And the use of force is again not a very good idea, as it weakens the child's confidence.Thus this brings us to the conclusion that it is one thing to bring a child into this world but quite another to make them into well mannered citizens. The best way is to be a good example ourselves, as our children are a reflection of us adults.1.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. It is annoying to watch children speak like a grown-up.B. We should deal with children carefully according to psychologists.C. We are totally responsible for our kids’ impolite behaviour.D. Most of the time children’s behaviour is easy to change.2.What's the main idea of the second paragraph?A. There are usually conflicts of opinions between parents andchildren.B. Children would like toys better than their parents.C. Children always look down upon their parents.D. It’s strange for children and parents to disagree with each other.3.Which of the following is part of the reason for the present situation of the children?A. Children always think their parents’ opinions are wrong.B. Parents often try to change their children by force.C. Parents give too much loose to children.D. Children are often asked to follow their parents.4. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?A. It is important that we teach children how to behave well and bringthem into the world.B. It is important to bring a child into the world safe and sound.C. We should try to make a child follow the elders.D. We should train children to be good citizens with good manners.参考答案1—4、BACD阅读理解。
训练17 阅读理解＋完形填空＋语法填空＋短文改错(建议用时45分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解Even if trees cannot walk，they are still on the move.In parts of the Arctic，entire forests are moving northward.Across the Arctic，temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world.As that happens，the tree line that marks where forests stop and the treeless tundra (冻原) starts has been shifting northward.Trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind.To do this，plants tend to grow horizontal (水平的)branches low to the ground.The energy it takes for trees to grow this way means they don’t have enough energy to make seeds.But as Earth’s climate has been warming，trees no longer have to just grow horizontally.Many can instead grow up toward the sky.This takes less energy.And with all that leftover energy，these trees have started producing more seeds.This happens especially in places where white spruce (白云杉) grows.White spruce，which is a North American tree，is quite able to produce a lot of seeds，which can move long d istances in the wind.When windblown seeds end up on the tundra beyond the tree line，they eventually can sprout (发芽) new trees.This explains how a forest can move.Of course，the process would work only if the tundra were warm enough.But in recent years，the whole planet has been warming.New trees will provide shelters for some snow.Keeping the sun’s rays from making the white surface disappear.Instead，the trees absorb the sun’s heat.This warms the surrounding air.The extra warmth encourages even more trees to produce seeds.That further boosts a forest’s ability to expand.In addition，more trees will trap more snow，preventing much of it from being blown away.Snow can trap heat in the soil below，which encourages trees to grow.The recent rise of temperatures has helped more trees grow past the tree line.People worry about impacts on the animals that depend on frozen conditions for food and shelter.1．What is the main cause of the trees in the Arctic moving northward?A．The shrinking of northern tundra.B．The rising temperature.C．The fierce and cold wind.D．The abundant resources in the north.2．What does the underlined word “ this” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．To produce more seeds.B．To move northward.C．To respond to the climate change.D．To protect themselves from the cold wind.3．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．New trees can trap the snow，which may make the soil colder.B．The trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds.C．New trees can make the surrounding air warmer.D．New trees can bring more food and shelter to local animals.4．The passage is most probably taken from ________.A．a science reportB．a health reportC．a fashion magazineD．a children’s magazine【语篇解读】本文是一篇科研报告，主要研究了气温升高对北极圈植物的影响。

This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13-19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred nineteen spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.Fred, a lovely young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely differently different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”1. This year________ teenagers will take part in the exchange program between America and other countries.A. twenty three hundredB. thirteen hundredC. over three thousandD. less than two thousand2. The whole exchange program is mainly to_________.A. help teenagers in other countries know the real AmericaB. send students in America to travel in GermanyC. let students learn something about other countriesD. have teenagers learn new languages3. What is particular in America schools is that________.A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings.B. there are a lot of outside activitiesC. students usually take fourteen subjects in allD. students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car.参考答案1—3、 CCB阅读理解。

Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obes ity than under-exercising or overeating.Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big infl uence upon a child’s weight, with one study finding that childr en with overweight parents were four times more likely to be o verweight themselves.The findings add heat to an already fierce political debate ov er childhood obesity. The Prime Minister, John Howard, last w eek decided that $116 million be used for programs to deal wi th obesity, while the Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, recentl y announced that his party would move to protect children fro m unhealthy food advertisements..Clare Colins , a senior lecturer at the of , believes such progr ams will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of w hole families. "If we can’ t get parents to take action against their own weight problems, then we can’ t expect to influence th eir kids," she said.However, Professor, Louise Baur from the Children’ s Hospita l at Westmead, doubts whether adult education programs offe r any solution to weight problems. "Many parents know they n eed to lose weight and they knew it influences their kids, but t hey lack the willpower to do anything about it.The l0-year study of 150 American children found two-thirds of children with overweight parents became overweight. Only one in six children whose parents were of average weig ht became overweight.The president of the Australasian Society for the Study of Obe sity, Associate Professor Gary Wittert, said parents needed h elp in doing their job and the Opposition Party’s policy（政策） might be on the right track."We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe, so we ma ke law against it,” he said."Obesity is a major public health concern, so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads?"1. What does the underlined phrase “juvenile obesity” mean?A. Adult education.B. Childhood overw eightC. Parents’ influenceD. Growing pains2.Both Collins and Baur believe that overweight parents_____ __,A. will come up with better solutionsB. will help with their children’ s educationC. should be more active in reducing weightD. should carry out at least 10 years’ study3. According to some experts, the Opposition Party’s policy__ ______.A. can help fight against unemploymentB. may protect kids from unhealthy food adsC. should be brought back to the right trackD. will work well to prevent traffic accidents参考答案1—3、BCB【阅读理解】科普知识类阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

With the tears streaming down her face，she put her two hands to her lips，and kissed them to Him; then clasped(紧握着)them on her breast，as if she laid his ruined head there．“You are not the gaoler’s(监狱长)daughter ?”She sighed“No. ”“Who are you ?”Not yet trusting the tones of her voice，she sat down on the bench beside him．He drew backbut she laid her hand upon his arm．A strange thrill struck him when she did so, and visibly passedover his frame; he laid the knife down softly，as he sat staring at her．Her golden hair，which she wore in long curls，had been hurriedly pushed aside，and fell downover her neck．Advancing his hand by little and little，he took it up and looked at it．In the middleof the action he went astray，and，with another deep sigh，fell to work at his shoemaking．But lot for long．Releasing his arm，she laid her hand upon his shoulder．After looking doubtfully at it，two or three times，as if to be sure that it was really there，he laid down his work，put his hand to his neck，and took off a blackened string with a scrap of folded rag attached to it．He opened this，carefully，on his knee，and it contained a very little quantity of hair：not more thanone or two long golden hairs，which he had，in some old day，wound on upon his finger．He took her hair into his hand again，and looked closely at it．“It is the same．How can it be!When was it! How was it!”As the concentrating expression returned to his forehead，he seemed to become conscious thatit was in hers too．He turned her full to the light，and looked at her．“She had laid her head upon my shoulder，that night when I was summoned(传唤)out —shehad a fear of my going，though I had none—and when I was brought to the North Tower theyfound these upon my sleeve．‘You will leave me them? They can never help me to escape in thebody，though they may in the spirit．’Those were the words I said．I remember them very well. ”He formed this speech with his lips many times before he could utter it．But when he did findspoken words for it，they came to him coherently(连贯地)，though slowly．“How was this?一Was it you? ”1．The underlined word“it” in the passage refers to“”.A．her hair B．her hand C．his arm D．his shoulder2．The passage is most probably taken from .A．a chant B．a drama C．a novel D．an essay3．From the passage，we can infer that .A．the lady was the gaoler’s friend B．the man lived a peaceful life C．they hadn’t seen each other for years D．they made a happy conversation 4．The old man took the lady’s hair into his hand again because .A．the hair reminded him of his daughterB．he found the hair of high qualityC．the lady had almost the same hair as he didD．the lady’s hair worried him so much5．The writer attracts the readers by .A．describing the changes of the relationshipB．giving a vivid description of detailsC．using funny and humorous languageD．presenting unpredictable consequence【参考答案】1—5、BCCAB【由山东省2014高考仿真模拟冲刺卷（5）改编】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。
A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly，courteous and helpful most Americans were to them．To be fair，this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians，and should best be considered North American．There are，of course，exceptions．Small-minded officials，rude waiters，and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US．Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment．For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence．Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another．Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of diversion，and brought news of the outside world．The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality．Someone traveling alone，if hungry，injured，or ill，often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement．It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers．It reflected the harshness of daily life：if you didn‘t take in the stranger and take care of him，there was no one else who would．And someday，remember，you might be in the same situation．Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the weary traveler．Yet，the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US，especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails．“I was just traveling through，got talking with this American，and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner—amazing．” Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon，but are not always understood properly．1．In the eyes of visitors from the outside world，___________．A．rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the USB．small-minded officials deserve a serious commentC．Canadians are not so friendly as their neighborsD．most Americans are ready to offer help2．It could be inferred from the last paragraph that ___________．A．culture exercises an influence over social interrelationship B．courteous convention and individual interest are interrelatedC．various virtues manifest themselves exclusively among friendsD．social interrelationships equal the complex set of cultural conventions 3．Families in frontier settlements used to entertain strangers ___________．A．to improve their hard lifeB．in view of their long-distance travelC．to add some flavor to their own daily lifeD．out of a charitable impulse4．The tradition of hospitality to strangers ___________．A．tends to be superficial and artificialB．is generally well kept up in the united StatesC．is always understood properlyD．has something to do with the busy tourist trails5．Wha t’s the author’s attitudes toward the American‘s friendliness？A．Favorable． B．Unfavorable． C．Indifferent． D．Neutral．【参考答案】1---5、DACBA【由山东省2014高考仿真冲刺卷（6）改编】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
