Which of the following is NOT true? A. The train was out of order. B. The telephone was put out of order by the robbers C. Whitby had an assistant driver. D. The robbers carried the money away by truck. B All of us eat every day, but most of us don’t understand nutrition. We often make mistakes in talking about good diet. For example, many people think that foods such as rice, bread and potatoes will make one grow fat. In fact, these foods are very good to one’s health. They are good sources of many vitamins. And in comparison with steak and beef, they contain less amount of calories. Some people don’t like canned or frozen vegetables, because they think fresh vegetables cooked at home are always better. This is again wrong. In fact, whether the vegetables are good or not depends more on how they are prepared. Overcooking, for example, destroys good qualities of vegetables. Vegetables cooked in too much water can use a large amount of vitamins. It is widely believed extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the body needs doesn’t make it function better. It is also wrong to say that vegetables grown in poor, worn-out soil are lower in vitamins than vegetables grown in rich soil. The vitamins in our foods are in the plants themselves. They don’t come from the soil. However, the minerals in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil. In short, there are many false ideas about nutrition. We need to correct them. 查看更多

 

题目列表(包括答案和解析)

It takes more than just practice to become an Olympian. Gold medal performances require some serious nutrition. Have you ever wondered what these successful athletes eat to stay in peak shape?
Keri Glassman, a registered dietitian and founder of Nutritious Life Meals, appeared on "Good Morning America" today to give you a glimpse into the diets of some top athletes. Some of their meals could surprise you.
Crazy Calorie Count
Glassman said Olympians eat a lot of food---quantities that for ordinary people would constitute pigging out. One secret of swimmer Michael Phelps' astonishing performance in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing was consuming as many as 12,000 calories in one day.
Athletes can eat like this and not gain any weight because their workouts are intense. According to Glassman, Phelps' workouts can burn 4,000 to 6,000 calories in a day, and those calories must be replenished (补充) in order to train the following day.
Snacking Secrets
Some athletes eat wacky (strange, unusual) foods that they swear improve their performance. Yohan Blake, the Jamaica sprinter and 100-meter world champion, has been making waves for stealing champion sprinter Usain Bolt's thunder on the track during the Olympic trials. Asked about how he gets his stamina, Blake answered that he eats 16 bananas per day, Glassman said.
Jonathan Horton, the lead gymnast on the US team, has a blood sugar problem. His solution is honey. When he starts to feel shaky at the gym, he takes swigs of honey to boost his energy, Glassman said.
Foods for Recovery
What are the best foods to help the body recover after rigorous (strict) competition?
For Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, the recovery meal is grilled chicken breasts with Alfredo sauce, whole-grain spaghetti and a salad with lemon juice and olive oil. Lochte, who recently cut out junk food, candy and soda, has undertaken a rigorous strength-training regimen(养生法) that involves flipping tractor tires, dragging shipyard chains and tossing beer kegs, Glassman said.
【小题1】What’s the best title of this passage?

A.Good Diet Makes a True Olympian.
B.Olympians Have Olympic-size Appetites.

D.The Diets of some Top Olympic Athletes.

There was a time when,if a lady got into a crowded bus or train,a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer his seat.But now,things are different.Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or if he feels a bit shy,hide behind his newspaper.Either way,the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.

You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners,though.Gone are the days when women could be referred to as weakers without causing trouble.A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men,not just equality in jobs or education,but in social life.Hold a door open for some women and you are likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as weakers unable to open doors for themselves.Take a girl out for meal and she’ll probably insist on paying her share of the bill.On second thoughts,that is perhaps not a bad idea.

It’s no wonder,then that men have given up some ways of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women.On the other hand,the man’s active politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women,so that men can see women as equal human beings,rather than as weakers or something that can be used to please men.

Maybe it is worth women’s while to stand in the bus or train.

46.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.Gentlemen are considered impolite nowadays if they do not offer their seats to a standing woman.

B.A gentleman who doesn’t give his seat to a standing woman should be blamed.

C.Today women do not enjoy the politeness shown actively to her by man but they considered it pleasant in the past.

D.In order to be equal with men,women have to stand in a bus or train.

47.A woman may get angry if a man holds a door open for her because________.

A.she doesn’t like him to wait on her hand and foot

B.women enjoy opening the door themselves

C.she feels herself treated as a weaker

D.she thinks it impolite for a man to do so

48.If a man takes a girl out for a meal,she insists on paying her share of the bill.That means________.

A.she wants to be equal with him

B.she likes him,so she doesn’t want to use his money

C.it’s impolite to have a free meal

D.she has agreed to marry him

49.What do women really need today?

A.Men’s active politeness and consideration.

B.Men’s true consideration for the needs and feelings of women.

C.Trying to win men’s favour.

D.Men’s good manners such as offering their seats and opening the door,etc.

50.The writer most probably is________.

A.a man who thinks the changes are reasonable

B.a woman who wants equality

C.a man who doesn’t agree with the changes today

D.a woman who doesn’t agree with the changes today
