B．DoubtfulC．Worried. D．Critical.BStarting the day on an egg could keep your blood pressure (血压) under control，research suggests.Scientists have shown that eggs produce proteins with a function similar to that of powerful blood pressure-lowering drugs.The researchers，from the University of Alberta in Canada，showed that when eggs come in contact with stomach enzymes (酶) they produce a protein that acts in the same way as ACE inhibitors，drugs taken by millions around the world to lower blood pressure.Fried eggs proved particularly effective，but more work is needed to show the effects outside a lab and in the human body.Earlier this month，British researchers declared that，contrary to popular beliefs，it is healthy to go to work on an egg.They concluded that the type of cholesterol (胆固醇) found in eggs has little effect on increasing heart disease risks.Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin，from the University of Surrey，said，“The wrong belief s linking egg eating to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected.The amount of fat in our diet has an effect on blood cholesterol that is several times greater than the relatively small amount of cholesterol found in eggs.The UK public do not need to limit the number of eggs they eat.They can be encouraged to include them in a healthy diet as they are one of nature’s most nutritious foods.”The British Heart Foundation dropped its three-egg-a-week limit in 2005.However，almost half of Britons believe the limit still applies.5．From the text we know that ACE inhibitors are________.A．a kind of medicine B．a kind of proteinC．a kind of illness D．a kind of food6．According to what Professor Bruce said，eggs________.A．are the most nutritious foodB．have no effect on blood cholesterolC．can be included in a healthy dietD．are forbidden to be eaten in the UK7．We can infer from the text that________.A．drugs to lower blood pressure will be replaced by eating eggsB．stomach enzymes mixed with eggs can cure heart diseasesC．most Britons agree the three-egg-a-week limit should be droppedD．about 50% of Britons think eating an egg a day is bad for their health8．The text is meant________.A．to introduce scientific findings about eggsB．to introduce a medicine made from eggsC．to tell people how to lower their blood pressureD．to advise people to eat as many eggs as possible答案：Ⅰ.单项填空1．A句意为：他几乎没能在如此短时间内完成这些工作。
