The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar. ①As one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we still try to go home for the celebration. ②The moon that night looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon together. With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our stories. In addition to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and visiting our relatives or friends.

(2014·襄阳四中调研)Let's face it. No one drinks diet soda for the taste.People drink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it. Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.

Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didn't drink diet soda. “What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they were likely to gain，” said Sharon Fowler.

The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years.

While the findings are surprising, they also offer some explanations.

Nutrition expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched from regular to diet soda, they don't lose weight at all.“We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us，” said Rogers.

So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over-compensate for the missing calories.

A related study found some sweeteners (甜味剂) raised blood sugar levels in some mice.“Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky，” said Helen P．Hazuda, professor at the University of Texas' school of medicine. “They may be free of calories, but not of consequences.”

1．People drink diet soda to ________.

A．enjoy its taste

B．stay in fashion

C．achieve weight loss

D．gain more energy

解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章第一段第三句中的“will help them lose weight”可知，人们饮用苏打水的目的是减肥。故选C。

2．The new study suggests that drinking diet soda ________.

A．causes people to become heavier

B．helps people to be healthier

C．makes people much thinner

D．offers people more calories

解析：选A细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.”可知，饮用苏打水不但不能减肥，反而会导致体重增加。故选A。

3．We can learn from the passage that ________.

A．regular soda makes people lose more weight

B．diet soda drinkers tend to eat more food

C．diet soda does help reduce calories

D．most blood diseases come from diet soda

解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda”可知，人们认为饮用苏打水后可以吃得更多。故选B。

4．The underlined word “They” in the last paragraph probably refers to “ ________”．

A．sweeteners

B．diet sodas and artificial sweeteners

C．sodas

D．diet soda drinkers and sweetener takers

解析：选B代词指代题。根据文章最后一段所讲述的内容，特别是“the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky”可知，They指代的是“diet sodas and artificial sweeteners”。故选B。

My good mood ended, however, when the radio station took a news break between songs. Then suddenly I found myself listening to yet another story of a rich famous man who had broken the law. I shook my head as I came to a red traffic light.

As I pulled to a stop I noticed four leather-jacketed bikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light. They looked rough and dangerous, but as I got closer I noticed each one was holding their helmet in their hands. I rolled down my window as one approached my car. “We are the Brother of the Wheel，” he said. “We are collecting money for Christmas Toy Drive for needy children.” As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet I looked past his beard and into his eyes. They shined with goodness and kindness that came right from his soul. I dropped the money in his helmet and waved to the other bikers as I drove off. My good mood had returned. My faith in mankind had been bolstered. And I remembered once again never to judge people by their appearance.

Our society often judges books by their covers but God reads what is written in our hearts and souls. Perhaps one day we will all learn to see the world through the same eyes. Perhaps one day we will realize that looks matter little and actions matter much.

5．The writer's good mood ended when ________.

A．he heard news between songs

B．he had to stop at a red traffic light

C．he heard a rich man broke the law

D．he saw four leather-jacketed bikers

解析：选A细节理解题。根据第一段第四句“My good mood ended, however, when the radio station took a news break between songs.”可知，歌曲间歇插播的新闻使作者没了好心情。故答案选A。

6．What were the four bikers doing at the traffic lights?

A．Having a bicycle race in the street.

B．Selling helmets to the passers-by.

C．Raising money to help kids in need.

D．Preparing for Christmas holidays.

解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段中的“We are collecting money for Christmas Toy Drive for needy children.”可知，他们是在为贫困儿童募捐。故答案选C。

7．What does “bolstered” in the second paragraph probably mean?

A．Destroyed. B．Improved.

C．Decreased. D．Exploded.

解析：选B词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词的上下文内容可知，作者起初对这四个人印象不好，因为他们看起来很粗鲁，并且很危险。但在得知他们真正的目的后，作者的看法改变了。作者对人性的认识得到了提升，明白了“不能以貌取人”的道理。因此bolster应与improve意思相近。故答案选B。

8．The writer wants to tell us that we should ________.

A．have faith in young people

B．judge others by their actions

C．change our attitude to society

D．manage to help others in need

解析：选B推理判断题。根据文章最后一段最后一句“Perhaps one day we will realize that looks matter little and actions matter much.”可知，作者想要告诉人们不要以貌取人，行动更重要。故答案选B。

方法一、“跳读”法——破解直接细节理解题

[典例](2013·山东高考阅读理解A节选)Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.

One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8：30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It's the least I could d o. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.

【点拨领悟】

(1)跳读原文，可以找到56题题干中的关键词“apply for a new job”出现在第一段最后一句；由此定位点向前可直接找到问题答案“but he lost his job a few months ago”，因此选A项。

(2)跳读原文，可以找到57题题干中的关键词“see”，“interview”出现在第二段第三句；由此定位点向后一句可直接找到问题答案“Obviously there was something wrong with the car.”，因此选D项。

方法二、“按图索骥”法——破解概括式细节理解题

[典例](2013·山东高考阅读理解B节选)George Gershwin, born in 1898, was one of America's greatest composers. He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.

Many of Gershwin's songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way — from jazz to country.

In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious

music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had

just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.

61．Many of Gershwin's musical works were ________.

A．written about New Yorkers

B．composed for Paul Whiteman

C．played mainly in the countryside

D．performed in various ways

【点拨领悟】

(1)“按图”由题干“Many of Gershwin's musical works were ...”可知61题是介绍Gershwin音乐作品的相关内容。

(2)“索骥”根据第二段中的第一句“Many of Gershwin's songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City.”可知，乔治的多数歌曲是写给音乐剧的，不是写给纽约人的，可排除选项A；同时这些歌曲是在纽约市演奏的，不是在农村演奏的，可排除选项C；根据第三段可知Gershwin 是应Paul Whiteman之邀为那场特别音乐会仅谱一曲，即Rhapsody in Blue，与题干相矛盾，排除选项B；再根据第二段最后一句“Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way — from jazz to country.”可知，他的作品被以各种形式演奏，故选择D项。

方法三、“加减乘除”——破解数据性细节理解题

[典例](2013·福建高考阅读理解A节选)When I was 12, all I wanted was a signet (图章) ring.They were the “in” thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials (姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.

What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being “replaced”．We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything — so most of the “new”stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.
