必修2 Module 1 Our Body and Healthy HabitsⅠ.话题延读Fighting “Big Soda”Sugar is not good for our health.But you may reason that a single can of Coke every day won’t do you much harm.After all,with exercise,you can burn off the calories from that can of Coke anyway.If this is your way of thinking,then congratulations!You are Big Soda’s ideal consumer.The term “Big Soda”refers to two soft drink companies:Coca-Cola and Pepsi.American soda consumption has experienced a sustained decline.In China,however,it’s a different story.According to a Xinhua News Agency report,Coca-Cola’s soda sales went up by 10 percent in the second quarter this year compared to the same time last year.Increases in soda consumption can be worrisome to health experts.In her recent book Soda Politics: Taking on Big Soda(and Winning),New York University nutrition professor Marion Nestle makes a fiery case against the soda industry.She says it’s all right if you drink sweet drinks occasionally.But drinking it every dayis “plainly unhealthy”.According to The Economist,one large study cited in Nestle’s book found that “for each(12-ounce) can added to a person’s daily diet,the risk of diabetes jumpedby 22 percent.There are also links between sugar and heart disease,obesity,strokeand cancer.” Unlike fruits or even a Big Mac,sweet drinks have no nutritional value.A12-ounce (340-gram) can of Coke,for example,has 140 calories and 39 grams of sugarbut no protein or fiber.Nestle also points out that drinking a lot of soda has a broader cost.Chronic diseases caused by unhealthy diets can create a burden for a country’s healthcare system.Increased health awareness has turned a lot of US consumers against soda.On a political level,lawmakers are also waging a war against Big Soda.Thirty-three USstates are taxing soda or sugar-sweetened drinks,while some are considering introducing warning labels for soda ads and soda products.1.From the passage,we know Big Soda contains a large quantity of .A.proteinB.fiberC.nutritionD.calories2.According to the passage,drinking soda every day is .A.relatively healthyB.absolutely unhealthyC.instantly deadlyD.hardly harmful3.One proper measure taken to fight against “Big Soda” is .A.increasing political awarenessB.making related lawsC.taxing less on sodaD.attaching encouraging labels4.Which of the statements is TRUE?A.Having a can of Coke every day will be healthy.B.A 34-ounce can of Coke has 140 calories and 39g of sugar.C.Big Soda will increase the risk of getting some chronic diseases.D.Chinese soda consumption has experienced a sustained decline.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。
必修5 Module 1 British and American EnglishⅠ.话题延读We do not usually think about how our language works. Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works. When we do study our language, though,we are often surprised that we are able to understand our conversations.Words can mean so many different things. However, it turns out that the speaking situation helps a lot in making language work.First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular. For example, the word“dog”can describe a dog that a speaker saw in a dream. It can also be used to discuss a neighbor’s dog. No language has a separate word for the idea “dog that I saw yesterday” and another word for the idea “dog that I saw in a dream”.This is because the speaking situation makes it clear what speakers mean when they use words. So, when you have a conversation with your neighbor, the knowledge that you have a dog tells your neighbor what the word “dog” probably means in that situation.The speaking situation also helps make language clearer. For example, the word “bank” has two possible meanings. It can mean “a place where people keep money”,but it can also mean “the side of a river”.So the sentence “I went to the bank” is not clear. It could mean “I went to the side of the river” or it could mean “I went to the place where my money is kept”.However, if the speaker is talking about fishing or going to the mountains, others probably know that “bank” means “the side of a river”.The things that speakers say may not always be clear. Sometimes the words are not very particular, but the speaking situation can provide the meaning. Other times words may have many meanings. Then the speaking situation limits the right meaning. This extra knowledge from the situation is very important to understand language.1.The passage is mainly about .A.the best time and place to talk to othersB.how speaking situation helps language workC.what to say in difficult situationsD.how our language works2.According to the passage, we can safely say that .A.a speaking situation does not affect the meaning of wordsB.speaking is not very natural for most peopleC.a speaking situation is not importantD.people often do not consider how talking works3.By using the example of the word “dog”, the writer wants to show that .A.a word may need to be explained in a conversationB.a word may have different meaningsC.speaking situation helps people understand the particular meaning of a wordD.the meaning of words is not particular4.According to the passage, we can know the meaning of the word “bank” by referring to .A.the time and the place where the conversation happensB.the occupation of the person who uses the wordC.earlier or later parts of the conversationD.a reliable dictionary语篇解读:本文讲述了语境对语言的理解起着很大作用。
