【题目】七选五
Recently some American scientists have a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations. They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10, 000 years ago.
The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly. Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.So they are called “diseases of civilization”.
Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.
Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones. They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits. They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains.We eat six times more salt than our ancestors. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.
But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.

A. People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.
B. Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.
C. Stone Age people lived a simple life.
D. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.
E. Modern people used to suffer from “diseases of civilization.”
F. But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.
G. In that case, they would live much healthier.

【答案】G;D;B;F;A
【解析】本文介绍一些美国科学家对工业化国家的人们提出了有益的建议,如果我们像古人那样吃东西的话,我们会更加健康,减少脂肪,咸和甜的食物。
(1)G根据前文提到人们应该吃1万年前人们吃的东西,因此“在那种情况下,人们将活得更为健康。”故选G.
(2)D根据上句提到这些新疾病在古代并不为人所知。所以他们被称为“文明的疾病”。所以最后一句应该是举例说明以前没有的一些新疾病。D项表示许多癌症和血液系统疾病都是此类疾病的例子。符合语境。故选D.
(3)B根据前文“enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none.”可知,古代人不抽烟喝酒,接下来应该说古代人还经常锻炼。B项符合语境。故选B.
(4)F根据前面三句话可知古代人有很多好的习惯,而现代人恰恰相反。F项符合语境。故选F.
(5)A根据后半句“But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.”可知,现代人不想像古代人那样生活。A项符合语境。故选A.

【题目】A few weeks ago, I called an Uber to take me to the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays. As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations(语调) of the driver’s accent washed over me in a familiar way.

I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents. That’s how he found out I go to Harvard. An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up — the product of his sacrifice.

And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?”

Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations, which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative(故事) of upward mobility so your children can do the same.

I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school!” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.

1What disappointed the driver?

A. The author’s attitude towards him.

B. The school that the author is attending.

C. The author’s majors in history and literature.

D. The author’s interests in African American studies.

2Which of the following can replace the underlined word “squandering” in Paragraph 4?

A. wasting

B. creating

C. valuing

D. seizing

3Why are immigrant kids expected to be doctors or lawyers?

A. Their parents want them to move upward in society.

B. Their parents are high achieving as well.

C. They have more opportunities.

D. They are very smart in general.

4How did the author react to the driver’s questioning?

A. Getting upset.

B. Feeling satisfied.

C. Defending herself.

D. Appreciating his concern.

Last month, my good friend Mark got an expensive watch as his birthday present. He showed to everyone in my class proud. I really envied him and every day I ask my mum to buy me an expensive present. However, to my disappointment, I only got a second-hand bike at that special day. So one day while I was riding my “dear” bike back home from school, I passed the shop that my mum worked.

Tear in my eyes, I got off the bike and worked together with her.
