Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Stop eating yourself stupid

We all know that poor nutrition can lead to bad health and even weight gain. 【1】 A recent study has found that what you eat could very likely play a role in how smart you are.

According to the study, rats fed a high-fat diet for 10 days showed signs of weakness and even had trouble finding treats that were waiting for them. 【2】 Actually high-fat diet could weaken our intelligence—but so can a calorie-restricted diet. The trick appears to lie in finding a nice balance.

Here are ways to achieve that happy balance and make you smarter through diet, exercise and improving your brain power.

【3】 Aim to get this amount of calories each day. If you need to drop a few pounds, take away the number you get by 400; consume that number of calories each day until you drop the weight.

Eat the right foods in addition to getting the right amount of calories. Aim for healthy foods that include good amounts of protein, fiber, fruits and vegetables, healthy whole grains, healthy fats and plenty of water. Well! Don’t forget to exercise your mind while doing so. Read a book. Try a new recipe. Do some puzzles. _【4】_

【5】 Aim for at least three 30-minute sessions a week. I like simple exercises such as walking, but anything that raises the heart rate is good. You may be fond of music too. Combine them! Some people like to listen to classical music such as Bach or Mozart, but rock music lovers will be happy to learn that this genre can help make you smarter as well.

A. Exercise regularly with happy mind forever.

B. Your health depends on your exercise plan.

C. Remember: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

D. Now add “lack of intelligence” to the list.

E. You may be puzzled whether it has something with us.

F. These are all good ways to help increase your smarts.

G. Figure out how many calories you need to maintain your weight.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】E

【3】G

【4】F

【5】A

【解析】

试题分析：生活中影响智力的因素有很多，文章中主要讲述的是饮食对智力的影响，呼吁我们要合理饮食并加强锻炼。

【1】D 根据横线后一句A recent study has found that what you eat could very likely play a role in how smart you are.说明，我们的食物对我们的智力有很大的影响的。横线前一句说明食物可以对我们的健康有影响，现在可以在受影响的名单上把对思维的影响添加上去。故D项正确。

【2】E 横线前句说明富含脂肪的食物对老鼠的智力有影响。横线后补一句Actually high-fat diet could weaken our intelligence说明，这样的食物对我们人类的智力也有影响。那么横线句应该是上下文的过渡句，E项“You may be puzzled whether it has something with us你（也许想知道这和我们有关系吗？）”恰好把前后两句串联起来，由对动物的影响联系到对人的影响。

【3】G 根据横线后一句Aim to get this amount of calories each day.（我们的目标是每天都获得这个数量的能量）。那么在第一句中就应该说明“this amount”，故G项“Figure out how many calories you need to maintain your weight.（搞清楚维持体重所需要的能量）”和第二句有效串联。

【4】F 横线前三句Read a book. Try a new recipe. Do some puzzles.都是帮助我们提高思维能力的有效方法，所以F项“These are all good ways to help increase your smarts.”中的these就是指本段前部分中提到的诸多方法，F项是本段的总结。

【5】A 根据本段第三句I like simple exercises such as walking, but anything that raises the heart rate is good.说明，本段主要讲述的是各种锻炼对提高智力的影响。A项“Exercise regularly with happy mind forever.”叙述的正是锻炼能够提高我们的智力，与本段中心思想一致。
