ATurning the lights out or wearing a blindfold while eating could be a quick way to lose weight，according to scientists.The simple trick works because it stops diners eating for pleasure rather than for calories.It also triggers(引发) a part of the brain that is worried that unseen food may go bad.An experiment by the University of Konstanz，in Germany，found that people who were blindfolded consumed nine percent fewer calories before they felt full，compared to those who could see.They also vastly overestimated how much they had eaten because they could not see how much was left on the plate.Blindfolded volunteers estimated they had eaten 88 percent more than they actually had.Scientists believe that not seeing food on the table also allows the body to know when it is full in real time rather than remembering past experiences where it might have taken a full plate to feel full.In the experiment,50 people were blindfolded and 40 were allowed to see their food.All were told not to eat within two hours of the experiment.They were then given three 95g bowls of chocolate ice cream and invited to eat for 15 minutes.Their bowls were taken away and the remaining ice-cream weighed，while the participants were quizzed on how much they thought they had eaten.On average the group who could see ate 116g while the blindfolded groups ate 105g.However，the blindfolded group believed they had eaten 197g while compared with 159g for the non-blind volunteers.They were also asked how pleasant the ice-cream tasted and the blindfolded group rated lower than those who could see.“The experienced pleasure of eating was significantly lower in the blindfolded group.Not seeing the food might have decreased the appetite.Sight plays an important role in the eating experience and in the overall dining experience.”Previous studies have shown that the visual influence of food plays a large part in the taste.While restaurants that allow diners to eat in the dark state that it triggers other senses，in fact eating in the darkness is likely to taste far milder than usual.1．With the lights out，diners eat less partly because .A．they want to finish their meals quicklyB．they trust their feelings more than everC．they focus more on fun than the caloriesD．they worry about the quality of the food答案D解析细节理解题。

高考英语二轮复习考前三个月专题一阅读理解细做模拟试题,题型分类突破七主旨大意之段落大意题
主旨大意之段落大意题ADo you know electricity can change the way we taste food？Proving this fact is a revolutionary electric fork designed by Japanese researchers that can make any dish taste salty.According to Hiromi Nakamura，a Post Doc Research Fellow at Tokyo’s Meiji University，the technology can be very useful for people on special diets.Patients with high blood pressure，for instance，can easily go on a lowsalt diet and still enjoy delicious food.And with the fork，there’s absolutely no risk of oversalti ng their food.Luckily，the voltage(电压) is so small that there is no risk of electrocution(触电) either.The idea of adding electricity to food was first exposed as an experiment at the Computer Human Interaction Conference in Austin，Texas，in 2021.Nakamura and her team connected a wire to a 9volt battery and passed it through a straw placed in a cup of sweet lemonade.Volunteers reported that the charged lemonade tasted “blander〞，because the electricity created the taste of salt.Nakamura has improved the technology to be able to transfer an electric charge to food through forks and chopsticks.“The metallic part of the fork is one electrode(电极)，and the handle is the other，〞Nakamura explained.“When you take a piece of food with the fork and put it in your mouth，you connect the circuit.When you remove the fork from your mouth，you disconnect the circuit.So it actually works as a switch.〞Simon Klose，host of food program Munchies，who recently visited Nakamura to try out the fork himself，called this form of “food hac king〞one of the greatest eating experiences he’d ever had.“When I first heard of electric food，it sounded scary，〞he said.He later continued to use a charged fork to eat pieces of fried chicken，and found that the saltiness considerably increased as the electricity was connected.Nakamura has been eating “electric〞food for the past three to four years in an attempt to understand it better.“For me，‘food hacking’ is about strengthening or weakening real food，〞she said.“It may seem like we’re cooking but we’re actually working on the human senses.〞错误!1．The electric fork may benefit people who . A．need to go on a dietB．have high blood pressureC．prefer food free of saltD．show interest in tasty food答案B解析细节理解题。

2019年全国高考英语冲刺训练试卷及答案(三)
2019年全国高考英语冲刺训练试卷及答案(名师押题预测+解析答案，建议下载练习)（满分120分，考试时间100分钟,不含听力）卷Ⅰ第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）第一节（共10小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A,B,C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项AWealth starts with a goal saving a dollar at a time. Call it the piggy bank strategy(策略). There are lessons in that time-honored coin-saving container.Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps. I f you wished to climb a 12,000-foot mountain, and could do it a day at a time, you would only have to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year. If you want to take a really nice trip in 10 years for a special occasion, to collect the $15,000 cost, you have to save $3.93 a day. If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a savings account at 1% interest rate after-tax, you will have your trip money.When I was a child, my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that, if I wanted something, I should save money to buy it. We associate piggy banks with children, but in many countries, the little containers are also popular with adults. Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth. Around the world, many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year’s Day brings good luck and financial success. Ah, but you have to put something in it.Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving? Why not an elephant bank, which is bigger and holds more coins? In the Middle Ages, before modern banking and credit instruments, people saved money at home, a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or dish. Potters(制陶工) made these inexpensive containers from an orange-coloredclay(黏土) called “pygg,” and folks saved coins in pygg jars. The Middle English word for pig was “pigge”. While the Saxons pronounced pygg, refer ring to the clay, as “pug”, eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation, sounding the “i” as in pig or piggy. As the word became less associated with the orange clay and more with the animal, a clever potter fashioned a pygg jar in the shape of a pig, delighting children and adults. The piggy bank was born.Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money, bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings. While piggy banks teach children the wisdom of saving, adults often need to relearn childhood lessons. Think about the things in life that require large amounts of money--- college education, weddings, cars, medical care, starting a business, buying a home, and fun stuff like great trips. So when you have money, take off the top 10%, put it aside, save and invest wisely.1. What is the piggy bank strategy?A. Paying 1% income tax at a time.B. Setting a goal before making a travel plan.C. Aiming high even when doing small things.D. Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.2. Why did the writer’s parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?A. To delight him with the latest fashion.B. To encourage him to climb mountains.C. To help him form the habit of saving.D. To teach him English pronunciation.3. What does then underlined word “something”(Paragraph 3) most probably refer to?A. MoneyB. GiftsC. Financial successD. Good luck4. The last paragraph talks about ________.A. the seriousness of educating childrenB. the enjoyment of taking a great tripC. the importance of managing moneyD. the difficulty of starting a businessBTwo friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy f or conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn't mean trying tofigure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid off As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves". Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends,. teachers. parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.5. This article is mainly about .A. the lives of school childrenB. the cause of arguments in schoolsC. how to analyze youth violenceD. how to deal with school conflicts6. From Paragraph 2 we can learn that________ .A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtimeB. a small conflict can lead to violenceC. students tend to lose their temper easilyD. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight7. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that______.A. there was a decrease in classroom violenceB. there was less student cooperation in the classroomC. more teachers fell better about themselves in schoolsD. the teacher-student relationship greatly improvedCIt was Saturday. As always, it was a busy one, for “Six days shall you labor and all your work” was taken seriously back then. Outside, Father and Mr. Patrick next door were busy chopping firewood. Inside their own houses, Mother and Mrs. Patrick were engaged in spring cleaning.Somehow the boys had slipped away to the back lot with their kites. Now, even at the risk of having Brother caught to beat carpets, they had sent him to the kitchen for more string(线). It seemed there was no limit to the heights to which kites would fly today.My mother looked at the sitting room, its furniture disordered for a thorough sweeping. Again she cast a look toward the window. “Come on, girls! Let’s take string to the boys and watch them fly the kites a minute.”On the way we met Mrs. Patric, laughing guiltily as if she were doing something wrong, together with her girls.There never was such a day for flying kites! We played all our fresh string into the boys’ kites and they went up higher and higher. We could hardly distinguish the orange-colored spots of the kites. Now and then we slowly pulled one kite back, watching it dancing up and down in the wind, and finally bringing it down to earth, just for the joy of sending it up again.Even our fathers dropped their tools and joined us. Our mothers took their turn, laughing like schoolgirls. I think we were all beside ourselves. Parents forgot their duty and their dignity; children forgot their everyday fights and little jealousies. “Perhaps it’s like this in the kingdom of heaven,” I thought confusedly.It was growing dark before we all walked sleepily back to the housed. I suppose we had some sort of supper. I suppose there must have been surface tidying-up, for the house on Sunday looked clean and orderly enough. The strange thing was, we didn’t mention that day afterward. I felt a little embarrassed. Surely none of theothers had been as excited as I. I locked the memory up in that deepest part of me where we keep “the things that cannot be and yet they are.”The years went on, then one day I was hurrying about my kitchen in a city apartment, trying to get some work out of the way while my three-year-old insistently cried her desire to “go park, see duck.”“I can’t go!” I said. “I have this and this to do, and when I’m through I’ll be too tired to walk that far.”My mother, who was visiting us, looked up from the peas she was shelling. “It’s a wonderful day,” she offered, “really warm, yet there’s a fine breeze. Do you remember that day we flew kites?”I stopped in my dash between stove and sink. The locked door flew open and with it a rush of memories. “Come on,” I told my little girl. “You’re right, it’s too good a day to miss.”Another decade passed. We were in the aftermath(余波) of a great war. All evening we had been asking our returned soldier, the youngest Patrick Boy, about his experiences as a prisoner of war. He had talked freely, but now for a long time he had been silent. What was he thinking of --- what dark and horrible things?“Say!” A smile sipped out from his lips. “Do you remember --- no, of course you wouldn’t. It probably didn’t make the impression on you as it did on me.”I hardly dared speak. “Remember what?”“I used to th ink of that day a lot in POW camp (战俘营), when things weren’t too good. Do you remember the day we flew the kites?”8. Mrs. Patrick was laughing guiltily because she thought________.A. she was too old to fly kitesB. her husband would make fun of herC. she should have been doing her howD. supposed to the don’t game9. By “we were all beside ourselves writer means that they all ________.A. felt confusedB.went wild with joyC. looked onD.forgot their fights10. Why did the writer finally agree to take her little girl for an outing?A. She suddenly remembered her duty as a mother.B. She was reminded of the day they flew kites.C. She had finished her work in the kitchen.D. She thought it was a great day to play outside.第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）下面文章中有5处（第61-65题）需要添加小标题。

AOur “Mommy and Me”time began two years ago.My next-door neighbor and fellow mother，Christie，and I were out in our front yards，watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down.“I wish I could take one of my children out alone，”said Christie.Then we worked out a plan：When Christie takes one of her children out，I’ll watch her other three children.And when she watches two of mine，I’ll take someone out.The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “Mommy and Me”time.Christie’s daughter，McKenzie，went first.When she returned，the other children showered her with tons of questions.McKenzie was smiling broadly.Christie looked refreshed and happy.“She’s like a different child when there’s no one else around，”Christie shared with me quietly.With her mother all to herself，McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie，I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times.For example，I am always surprised when my daughter，who is seldom close to me，holds my hand frequently.My stuttering(口吃) son，Tom，doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak.And the other son，Sam，who’s always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.The “Mommy and Me”time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child—talking，sharing，and laughing，which has been the biggest gain.Every child deserves(应得到) to be an only child at least once in a while.1．What is the text mainly about?A．The experience of the only child being with mother.B．The advantage of spending time with one child at a time.C．The happy life of two families.D．The basic needs of children.答案B解析主旨大意题。

BHollywood is on the edge of a nervous breakdown.Worried about an industry wide writers’strike，struck by a series of theater-chain bankruptcies(破产)，burdened with unreasonable corporate profit，requirements and seemingly incapable of producing consistently creative movies，the American film industry is in a period of soul-searching.There’s little doubt that it will survive this crisis.But most insiders agree there is disease at both ends of the business—where films are produced，and where they’re shown—that may take years to overcome.While annual box-office income increases for nine straight years，largely due to increased ticket prices，the number of actual tickets sold declined for the second year in a row.The construction boom has added nearly 10,000 theaters(more than 200,000 more seats) in the last five years.But due to a static(静止的) audience base，eight major chains have gone into bankruptcy and several others are in terrible financial situations.In fact，insiders say，Hollywood is now in a business it does not want to be in.“There’s a general problem in that the companies that have the most consistent output of material are least interested in what they’re making，”says former 20th Century Fox CEO，Bill.And，Bill adds，“We’re in a period where movies are getting bigger and more costly and less interesting and fulfilling to an audience.”Today the studios are under the stress to increase profit margins(营业利润) for their corporate parents，and profit margins are hard to control in a business whose products are seen as impulse buys(即兴购买)．Other business can increase profits by cutting costs—buying cheaper material，or making the candy bar smaller.Not Hollywood.“What we’re cutting is risk，”says the head of one major studio，who asked not to be named，“And risk is what great film has always demanded.”While the studios are avoiding risky concepts，their competitors in the home entertainment business have been expanding the boundaries of the imagination.It was this pressure—in electronic games，the Internet，EVDs—that forced the movie theater chains into a self-destructive craze of expansion.语篇解读本文主要叙述了好莱坞电影业的现状，同时分析了这一现象出现的原因。
