一、高中英语阅读理解
1.阅读理解
They say that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, there is one lady who believes that
it's actually chocolate. At 102 years of age, she's living proof.
According to Boonville, Indiana's Eunice Modlin, a daily dose of chocolate has been the key to a
long and healthy life. Specifically, two pieces of dark chocolate. It's not just Eunice who believes
this.
Many scientists have attributed the sweet to health benefits such as lower chances of cancer,
cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.
However, researchers believe that Eunice might be overlooking the fact that she has never
smoked or drunk alcohol in her long life, and that chocolate might not be the significant cause of
her longevity.
"There are so many other factors to her long life and chocolate isn't the only one," nutritionist
Vanessa Rissetto said. "Genes, her diet in general…are probably the main reasons."
At any rate, Eunice is still alive and kicking. With four children, seven grandkids, 14 great-grandkids and 11 great-great grandkids, this lady has a big family.
It must be noted that Eunice was also very athletic, being an archer in her 20s .Amazingly, she
has lived through tough times such as the Great Depression and World War II .Also, the healthy
blood runs through the veins of other family members. Eunice's brother is also still alive, at 101
years of age.
No matter what you might think, Eunice's consumption of chocolate can't be ignored. In 2015,
a BMJ study showed that a daily treat of one small bar would give the consumer 23% less chance
of having a stroke (中风).
What is in the sweet that makes it so beneficial? Apparently, cocoa beans have flavonoids,
plant nutrients that have useful antioxidants (抗氧化剂).
"Not all chocolate is created equal," Rissetto warns. "Dark chocolate has more flavonoids than
milk chocolate, and white chocolate—which does not actually contain chocolate—is not a good
source of flavonoids."
(1)According to the article, which of the following lead to Eunice Modlin's long and healthy
life?
a. two pieces of dark chocolate
b. genes
c. lifelong exercise
d. good diet
e. love of her large family
A. a, b, d B. b, c, d C. a, b, e D. a, c, d
(2)Rissetto thinks that .
A. chocolate is the most important thing that affects Eunice's health B. no smoking or
drinking contributes the most to Eunice's longevity
C. chocolate really has nothing to do with her long and healthy life D. Eunice's good diet doesn't only mean taking chocolate every day
(3)What the author presented in the passage sounds . A. persuasive B. objective C. subjective D. critical
(4)From the whole passage we can conclude that______________.
A. there's universal proof for what contributes to a long life B. it is generally accepted that
chocolate is the key to longevity
C. many factors may contribute to people's good health D. a bit of any chocolate a day keeps
the doctor away
【答案】(1)A
(2)D
(3)B
(4)C
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,美国印第安纳女性Eunice Modlin现在已经102岁的了,她认为自己长寿的秘密是每天吃巧克力,并分析了她长寿的原因以及巧克力对健康产生影响的原因。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第五段“‘There are so many other factors to her long life and
chocolate isn't the only one,’ nutritionist Vanessa Rissetto said. ‘Genes, her diet in general…are
probably the main reasons.’”可知研究人员认为Eunice Modlin长寿的原因有很多,基因、饮食以及巧克力都起了作用。故选A。
(2)考查推理判断。根据最后一段“ ‘Not all chocolate is created equal,’ Rissetto warns. ‘Dark
chocolate has more flavonoids than milk chocolate, and white chocolate—which does not
actually contain chocolate—is not a good source of flavonoids.’”可知Rissetto认为只有黑巧克力才黄酮,而黄酮是抗氧化剂的很好的来源。Eunice的饮食不仅仅意味着吃巧克力,而要吃黑巧克力。故选D。
(3)考查态度观点。本文是一篇说明文,美国印第安纳女性Eunice Modlin现在已经102岁的了,她认为自己长寿的秘密是每天吃巧克力,并分析了她长寿的原因以及巧克力对健康的影响。文章中作者只是客观陈述事实,并没有发表个人观点,所以作者持客观的态度。故选B。
(4)考查推理判断。根据第五段“‘There are so many other factors to her long life and
chocolate isn't the only one,’ nutritionist Vanessa Rissetto said. ‘Genes, her diet in general…are
probably the main reasons.’”可知研究人员认为Eunice Modlin长寿的原因有很多,基因、饮食以及巧克力都起了作用。同样人们的健康是受到不同因素的影响的,故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,推理判断和观点态度三个题型的考查,是一篇生活类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,并根据上下文的进行逻辑推理,概括归纳,从而选出正确答案。

As a volunteer teacher, I moved into an apartment with eagerness. Sorting all the necessary
paperwork out, I got ready to start my work. Great, or so I thought. At 4 a.m. and at several
intervals after that, I was rudely awaken by the cock that lives opposite me. Fantastic! I now have
