2019年湖北成人學(xué)位英語考試：閱讀理解練習(xí)(2)

In the United States,30 percent of the adult population has a "weight problem". To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s,we find that people were thinner than today,yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn′t watch television. Several modern studies, moreo-ver,have shown that fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.

Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts:

The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost.

The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.

Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.

1.The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that__________.

A.they are too slim

B.they work too hard

C.they are too fat

D.they lose too much body fat

2.According to the article,given 500 adult Americans, __________ people will have a "weight problem".

A.30

B.50

C.100

D.150

答案：D

解析：邏輯推理題。答案也在第一段第一句話：30 percent of the adult popula. tion has a“weight problem”(30%的成年人都有體重問題)。因此，如果有500人的話，那么150人就會有體重問題。D為正確答案。

3.Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a " weight problem" ?

A.Yes,there is plenty of evidence.

B.Of course,there is some evidence to show this is true.

C.There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.

D.We don't know because the information is not given.

答案：C

解析：細節(jié)判斷題。答案在第一段第三句話：But scientific evidence does little to support this ides(但幾乎沒有任何科學(xué)依據(jù)證明這一點)。C為正確答案。

4.In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s__________.

A.ate more food and had more physical activities

B.ate less food but had more activities

答案：A

解析：細節(jié)判斷題。答案在第一段：Going back to the America of the 1910s。we find that people were thinner than today，yet they ate more food.In those days people worked harder physically，walked more，used machines much less and didn't watch television(回顧十八世紀(jì)初，那時的人比現(xiàn)在的人瘦，然而卻吃得多。那時候，他們工作比現(xiàn)在辛苦，走路比現(xiàn)在多，使用機器比現(xiàn)在少，也不看電視)。因此A為正確答案。
