In Japan, some workers who regularly drink beer at the end of the day are giving their livers a rest by turning to beer that is free, or nearly free of alcohol.The liver is the organ that works to remove alcohol from the body. Masuda, one of beer lovers, said he is paying more attention to his health now that he is older.

Asahi is a large beverage company in Japan, which made 20 percent more money from low-alcohol beer in 2020 compared to the year before. Kirin is another company that makes things to drink. It saw sales grow by 10 percent last year and expects another increase this year.

The increase in sales of non-alcoholic beer might be the result of many Japanese people spending more time at home. In the past, they would order beers together while going out. More people are trying to stay healthy as well. Also, fewer people are drinking beer, as wine and other alcoholic drinks become more popular. But the new interest in low-alcohol beer has helped the beverage industry in Japan.

In recent years, many companies started making non-alcoholic beers. They caught on in places like Australia and Germany but not in Japan – until this year.

The chief of Suntory, another large beverage company in Japan, said people only responded to

non-alcoholic beer advertising when the product started to taste better. Many people agree that today's non-alcoholic beers taste better than they used to. Asahi's "Beery" has very little alcohol. But it is supposed to have more taste than earlier versions of low-alcohol beer because of a new way of removing the alcohol. The company plans to offer more low-alcohol beers in coming years.

Kazuo Matsuyama is marketing chief for Asahi, who said most beer companies used to advertise to people who had a drink every day. That was about 20 million people. But there are about 80 million people in Japan between the ages of 20 and 60." But now we need to look at others." Matsuyama said.

4.Why do some Japanese workers turn to beers free of alcohol nowadays?

A.To appreciate a tasty flavor. B.To ensure a healthier lifestyle.

C.To get rid of liver cancer. D.To relieve stress in their life.

5.What’s the author’s statement on beverage companies’ excellent sales in 2020 based on? A.Beverage company traditions.

B.Financial reports.

C.Published statistics.

D.Public opinions.

6.What’s Australian’s attitude to non-alcoholic beers?

A.Enthusiastic. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Objective.

7.What’s the text mainly about?

A.New lifestyles in Japan.

B.The development of Asahi.

C.Introductions of different beers.

D.Popularity of alcohol free beers.

While many countries love their tea, UK citizens are particularly proud of being "tea people". The average UK citizen consumes nearly 2 kilograms of tea each year.Tea only made its way to England in large quantities in the first years of the 17th century. Tea from China and a few other Asian countries was being sold more widely in England at that time. Then tea became more and more popular among different social classes.

There are many varieties of tea. Black tea mixtures are still the most common type drunk in the UK. Black tea is dark in colour,because the leaves have been allowed to oxidize(氧化)before drying. This is why we usually serve it with milk,although it is not uncommon to drink it black or with lemon.

You may still find tea made with loose tea leaves, served up in a pot, and poured into the best china cups with saucers(茶托)for visitors.

Tea is still a large part of daily life in the UK today, but it seems to be on the decrease . The amount of tea sold in the UK fell by more than 10% in the five years leading up to 2002, and has been dropping ever since. Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone, and most restaurants report selling more than twice as many cups of coffee as they do tea. More than 1 billion was spent on coffee in high street stores in 2013, more than twice what was spent on tea bags.

Still, what goes around comes around ; it's sure to become fashionable again.

8.Which of the following is true according to the first three paragraphs?

A.Tea made its way to England in the early years of the 16th century.

B.The UK usually serves black tea with lemon.

C.Tea from China is being sold more widely in England now.

D.UK citizens take pride in being "tea people".

9.What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?

A.Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone.

B.The sales of tea have been on the decrease for about 20 years.

C.In 2013, the money spent on tea was f 3 billion.

D.Most restaurants like selling tea than coffee.

10.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?

A.It can never succeed again. B.Tea can become popular again.

C.Coffee is more popular than tea. D.Tea is becoming less popular.

Taking an afternoon nap could keep your brain sharp, a new study has said. Adults ages 60 and older who took afterno on naps showed signs of better mental ability compared to those who didn’t nap, according to a study published in General Psychiatry earlier this week.

Researchers analyzed napping habits in 2, 214 older Chinese people and measured their cognitive abilities using several cognitive tests. Participants took the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Beijing version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, both of which test for memory, language and other cognitive abilities. In every category listed in the study, nappers tested statistically higher on average compared to their non-napping counterparts.

Researchers did not gather data from people under 60, so a correlation cannot be drawn between napping and younger generations. The study also noted that there are conflicting studies about the benefits and risks of napping.

Sleeping behaviors can be affected by a multitude of factors, said Dr. David Neubauer, associate professor at Johns Hopkins University. “Daily routines, medication use and sleep disorders can all play a role in how frequently someone takes a nap.” he said.

Neubauer recommended taking a shorter “power nap” of up to 20 minutes to decrease the chances of transitioning into slow-wave sleep, which makes people feel groggy when they wake up. “Napping ca n be a healthy part of an older adult’s day”, Neubauer acknowledged, but make sure “sleepiness isn’t due to a treatable nighttime sleep disorder.” Older individuals who want to do all they can to preserve their cognitive functioning should put nighttime sleep first.

11.What is the best way to keep a better cognitive ability for the old?

A.Take a nap every day.

B.Take sleep disorder seriously.

C.Have a good sleep at night.

D.Do exercise regularly.

12.How did the researchers reach the conclusion?

A.By taking the examinations and assessment.

B.By analyzing napping habits and giving tests.

C.By measuring nappers’ ability and analyzing them.

D.By doing an experiment.

13.Which has NO effect on one’s sleeping behaviors?

A.Taking a nap.

B.Medicine treatment

C.Sleep problems

D.Everyday activities.

14.What can we know about “slow-wave sleep”?

A.It appears in short nap up to 20 minutes.

B.People should avoid it in their naps.

C.It is a healthy part of an elder’s day.

D.It was recommended by Neubauer.

Passage5

When it comes to being fit and healthy, we're often reminded to aim to walk 10,000 steps per day. This can be a frustrating target to achieve, especially when we're busy with work and other commitments.

The 10,000 steps a day target seems to have come about from a trade name pedometer sold in 1965 by

Yamasa Clock in Japan. The device was called "Manpo---kei, which translates to "10,000 steps meter". This was a marketing tool for the device and has seemed to have stuck across the world as the daily step target. It's even included in daily activity targets by popular smart-watches, such as Fitbit.

In ancient Rome, distances were actually measured by counting steps. In fact, the word "mile" originated from the Latin phrase mila passum, which means about 2,000 steps. It's suggested the average person walks about 100 steps per minute---which would mean it would take a little under 20 minutes for the average person to walk a mile. So in order for someone to reach the 10,000---step goal, they would need to walk about five miles a day, nearly two hours of activity.

Researchers have investigated the 10,000 steps a day target. The fact that some studies have shown this step target improves heart health, mental health, and even lowers diabetes risk, may, to some extent, explain why we have stuck with this arbitrary number.

But while some research has shown health benefits at 10,000 steps, recent research from Harvard Medical School has shown that, on average, approximately 4,400 steps a day is enough to significantly lower the risk of death in women. This was when compared to only walking around 2,700 steps daily. The more steps people walked, the lower their risk of dying was, before leveling off at around 7,500 steps a day. No additional benefits were seen with more steps. Although it's uncertain whether similar results would be seen in men, it's one example of how moving a little bit more daily can improve health and lower risk of death.

15.From which does taking 10,000 steps for walkers initially come?

A.Ancient Rome. B.Fitbit.

C.Mila passum. D.Manpo-kei.

16.How many steps will you take on average to cover two miles?

A.2000. B.2700.

C.4000. D.7500.

17.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A.The more you walk daily, the healthier you will be.

B.7,500 steps or so a day is the ideal number for women.

C.To be healthy you'd better walk ten thousand steps.

D.The number of effective steps is the same for men and women.

18.What does the underlined phrase "leveling off" refer to?

A.Remaining steady. B.Increasing greatly.

C.Decreasing sharply. D.Disappearing suddenly.

专题08-2021年新高考英语拓展阅读训练-健康与饮食(解析版)

专题08 健康与饮食 Text 1 (2020年全国统一高考英语试卷新课标Ⅰ) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem. Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass. Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says, According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour. However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step. As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice. 28.Why are race walkers conditioned athletes? A.They must run long distances. B.They are qualified for the marathon. C.They have to follow special rules. D.They are good at swinging their legs. 29.What advantage does race walking have over running? A.It’s more popular at the Olympics. B.It’s less challenging physically.

【新高考】2021高考英语人教版一轮复习:阅读理解话题五 饮食与健康(B) (含解析)

话题五饮食与健康(B) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A [2020·安徽重点中学盟校模拟]On average, Americans spend about 10 hours a day in front of a computer or other electronic devices(设备) and less than 30 minutes a day outdoors. That is a claim made by David Strayer, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah. In his 2017 TED Talk, Strayer explained that all this time spent with technology is making our brains tired. Using an electronic device to answer emails, listen to the news and look at social media puts a lot of pressure on the front of the brain, which, Strayer explains, is important for critical(有判断力的) thinking, problem-solving and decision-making. So, it is important to give the brain a rest. And being in nature, Strayer claims, helps get a tired brain away from too much technology. More than 15,000 campers from around the world attended an international camping festival in September. That is when friends and family take time off and escape to nature for several days. They take walks, climb, explore, swim, sleep, eat and play. Camping may be just what a tired brain needs. Take Carl for example. He lives in West Virginia and enjoys camping. He says that staying outdoors makes him feel at ease. It also prepares him for the work he must do. Kate Somers is another example who also lives in West Virginia. She says she enjoys camping with her husband and two children. She calls it a “regenerative” experience. At the University of Utah, David Strayer has studied both short-term and long-term exposure to nature. He found that spending short amounts of time in nature without technology does calm the brain and helps it to remember better. However, he found, it is the long-term contact with nature that does the most good. He and his research team found that spending three days in nature without any technology is enough time for the brain to fully relax and reset itself. 1.What is David Strayer's opinion? A.Americans dislike outdoor activities. B.Electronic equipment should be quitted. C.New technologies are a double-edged sword.

It’s not just that we’re going to where the animals are;we’re also bringing them closer to us.Popular foreign pets have brought a whole new disease to this country.A strange illness killed Isaksen’s pets,and she now thinks that keeping foreign p ets is a bad idea.“I don’t think it’s fair to have them as pets when we have such a limited knowledge of them,”says Isaksen. “Laws allowing these animals to be brought in from deep forest areas without stricter control need changing,”says Peter Schantz.Monkey­pox may be the_wake­up_call.Researchers believe infected animals may infect their owners.We know very little about these new diseases.A new bug(病毒) may be kind at first.But it may develop into something harmful(有害的).Monkey­pox doesn’t look a major infectious disease.But it is not impossible to pass the disease from person to person. 64.We learn from Paragraph 1 that the pet sold at the shop may ________.

2022高考英语二轮阅读理解归类复习—健康饮食(详解)

2022高考英语二轮阅读理解归类复习—健康饮食(详 解) (2020·广东卷)I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly.As a doctor,mother and scientist in child development I believe there is nothing to recommend it,from the baby's point of view. Mothers,doctors and nurses alike have no idea of where a baby's blood sugar level lies.All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed.In this state,the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible.The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth. It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a fourhourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied.The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night.I've never heard anything so ridiculous.Baby feeding shouldn't follow a timetable set by the mum.What is important is feeding a baby in the best way,though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks. Well,at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding.The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5,7,11 and 14,than babies fed according to the clock.By the age of 8,their IQ (智商) scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable.This research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample (样本) of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s,taking account of parental education,family income,a child's sex and age,the mother's health and feeding style.These results don't surprise me.Feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels. I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices. 【语篇解读】本文关于婴儿喂养的时刻提出了不同的看法,作者认为严格按照时刻表喂婴儿是错的。 1.What does the author think about Dr King? A.He is strict.

话题语篇专攻练26 健康饮食(二) (建议用时35分钟) Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A Here’s an experiment: take a bite of whatever food you have nearby and listen to some music, something with high notes。 Now, take another bite, but listen to something with low notes。 Notice anything? Researchers at the University of Oxford have been looking for a link between sound and taste. They’ve found that higher-pitched music-think flutes—enhances the flavor of sweet or sour foods. Lower-pitched sounds, like tubas, increase the bitter flavors。 Charles Spence is leading that study into what he and his team call“multi—sensory food perception”. Spence tells how taste is the sense that unifies all of the others。 “Flavor is probably one of the most multi-sensory of our experiences。。。 because it does involve taste and more smell than we realize,"Spence says. “But all of the senses come together to give us that one unified experience of flavor。” “Texture is one of the more clear ways sound plays into taste, "Spence says。“Think of the crackling of chips or the fizzy sounds of a carbonated drink—sound plays a major role in our experience of those textures。” “But the other place where sound affects taste, ”Spence says,“is in the environment; imagine listening to the sounds of the sea while you’re eating fish at a seaside restaurant。” Spence’s team is currently working on what he calls“synesthetic sounds"。 By
