阅读理解新增文章*第十八篇 Exercise Can Replace Insulin for Elderly Diabetics Most older people with so-called type II diabetes could stop taking insulin if they would do brisk exercise for 30 minutes just three times a week, according to new medical research results reported in the Copenhagen newspaper Berlingske Tidende on Monday Results from tests conducted on diabetics at the Copenhagen Central Hospital Rigshospitalets Center for Muscle Research showed that physical exercise can boost the bodys ability to utilize insulin by 30 per cent, the newspaper reportedThis is equal to1 the effect most elderly diabetics get from their insulin medication today, it said Researchers had a group of non-diabetic men and a group of men with type,all more than 60 years of age, exercise on bicycles six times a week for three monthsAfter the three months the doctors measured how much sugar the test subjects muscles could utilise as a measure for how well their insulin worked.2 Associate Professor3 DrFlemming Dela of the Muscle Research Center said the tests demonstrated that the exercising diabetics had just as high insulin utilisation as the healthy non-exercising persons This means that the insulin works just as well for both groupsPhysical exercise cannot cure people of diabetes,4 but it can eliminate almost all their symptomsAt the same time it can put off 5 the point at which they have to begin taking insulin or perhaps completely avoid insulin treatmentDela was quoted as saying6 Insulin isa hormone produced by the pancreas, controlling sugar in the body and used against diabetes Dela said that to achieve the desired effect diabetics need only exercise to the point where they begin to work up7 a sweat, but that the activity has to be maintained since it wears off8 after five days without sufficient exercise Most diabetics realise that they have to watch their diet while remaining unaware of the importance of exercise, Dela added第十八篇 老年糖尿病患者进行体育锻炼可以取代胰岛素治疗 哥本哈根的贝林时报周一刊登了一则最新医疗研究结果称,大多数型老年糖尿病患者只要每周坚持三次轻:陕的体育锻炼,每次30分钟,都可以不用注射胰岛素。 报道称,哥本哈根市中心医院Rigshospitalet肌肉研究中心对糖尿病人进行测试,结果显示体育锻炼能将身体利用胰岛素的能力提高30。 据说,这一结果和大多数老年糖尿病患者每天接受胰岛素治疗的疗效相同。 研究人员挑选了一组非糖尿病患者,一组型糖尿病患者,都是60岁以上的男性。这些被试者每周骑自行车锻炼六次,并持续了三个月。三个月后,医生测量出被试者肌肉能够利用的血糖总量,以此作为测量他们的胰岛素工作状况如何的标志。 肌肉研究中心副教授弗莱明德拉医生称,实验结果显示,进行体育锻炼的糖尿病患者胰岛素利用率和那些没有锻炼的健康人胰岛素利用率一样高。 “这就意味着,两组被试者的胰岛素都是正常工作的。体育锻炼不能治好患者的糖尿病,但是能最大限度地消除患者症状。另外,即使患者不得不接受胰岛素治疗,体育锻炼也能尽量推迟这一临界点,甚至有可能完全避免实施胰岛素治疗。”德拉医生的话像格言一样被人们所引用。 胰岛素是胰腺分泌的一种激素,可以控制体内血糖,预防糖尿病。 德拉解释说,糖尿病患者只需锻炼到出汗的程度即可达到理想的效果。同时他还强调,这种锻炼必须坚持,如果五天没有进行有效锻炼,效果就会消失。 德拉还补充说,大多数糖尿病患者意识到他们必须控制饮食,却忽略了体育锻炼的重要性。词汇:insulin胰岛素diabetic (患)糖尿病的;n糖尿病患者diabetes糖尿病;多尿症briskbrisk彩轻快的;活泼的,活跃的Copenhagen哥本哈根(丹麦首都)muscle肌肉 utilise(=utilize)利用,使用medication儿药物,药物治疗subject玩实验对象utilisation(=utilization) 利用,使用saying格言hormone激素pancreas胰(腺)注释:1be equal to:等于 2as a measure for how well their insulin worked:作为测量他们的胰岛素工作状况如何的标志。从语法上分析,how引起的从句是for这个介词的宾语从句。3associate professor:副教授4.cannot cure people of diabetes:不能治好人们的糖尿病。cure sbof sth:给某人医治某病。例如:This medicine should cure you of your cold这药准能治好你的感冒。put off:推迟,延期Dela was quoted as saying:Dela的话像格言一样被人们所引用。注意谓语是被动语态。work up:逐步引起,激起wear off:逐渐消失(be)unaware of sth不知道,没觉察练习:1How could most elderly type II diabetics stop taking insulin?

These risk factors are not present in all social and cultural contexts, but provide an overview when attempting to understand the causes of child maltreatment. It is important to emphasize that children are the victims and are never to blame for5 maltreatment. A number of characteristics of an individual child may increase the likelihood of being maltreated, such as being either under four years old or an adolescent, being unwanted, or failing to fulfill the expectations of parents and having special need, crying persistently or having abnormal physical features.6第二十四篇遏制虐待儿童现象 虐待儿童是一个全球问题,它会严重影响儿童的一生。由于缺乏很多国家虐待儿童的数据,尤其是中低收入国家的数据,目前对于儿童虐待在全球蔓延的程度,我们还未能获得可靠的数据。 虐待儿童的研究很复杂,很困难。当前,各个国家大概的相关数据差别很大,而且使用的研究方法不同也会得出不同的估值。但是,国际研究显示,大约有20的女性和5一l0的男性称自己在童年遭到性虐待,而所有儿童的25一50都称自己曾受肉体上的虐待。除此之外,很多儿童受到情感虐待(有时又成为心理虐待)o 每年,有大约31,000名15岁以下儿童遭到谋杀,但是由于很大一部分由儿童虐待造成的死亡被错误地归因于坠楼、烧死或溺死,所以这一数据不能反映出这一问题真正的严重程度。 虐待儿童会给儿童和其家人带来持久的伤痛。虐待会造成压力,而压力会干扰儿童早期的大脑发育。高度压力会损伤神经和免疫系统的发育。之后,儿童长大成人,但是他们在行为、生理以及心理方面出现疾病的危险性大大增加。通过行为和心理上对健康的影响,虐待又会导致心脏病、癌症、自杀以及性传播疾病等。 儿童虐待除了会造成健康问题,还会造成经济损失,包括住院费用、心理治疗费用、儿童福利和长期的医疗费用。 人们已经明确了造成儿童被虐待的大量风险因素。并不是所有的社会文化背景都包含这些风险因素,但是至少提供了一个风险因素概况,可以帮助理解儿童被虐待的成因。有一点很重要,需要强调:儿童是受害者,而且绝不应该怪他们。不过,有几大特征会增加儿童。受虐待的可能性,这些特点包括:4岁以下或者处于青春期、不受欢迎、不能满足父母的期望、有特殊需求、不停哭闹或是身体有异常。词汇:Maltreatment 虐待impair 损害consequence结局,结果prevalence流行approximately大约,大概abuse滥用;虐待homicide杀人attribute归因于disruption扰乱via 通过transmit 传染,传播likelihood可能性adolescent 青春之男孩或女孩儿persistently 坚持地,持续地注释:1be subject to:遭受 2be referred to as:被当做3be attributed t0:把归因于 4Consequently,as adults,maltreated children are at increased risk for behavioural,physical and mental health problemsVia the behavioural and mental health consequence s,maltreatment can contribute to heart disease,cancer,suicide and sexually transmitted infections因此,那些曾被虐待的儿童,到了成人期,在行为、生理以及心理等方面出现疾病的危险性大大增加。通过行为和心理上对健康的影响,虐待又会导致其出现心脏病、癌症、自杀以及性传播疾病等。5.to blame for:因怪罪,责怪(某人)6 A number of characteristics of an individual child may increase the likelihood of being maltreated,such as being either under four years old or an adolescent,being unwanted,or failing to fulfil the expectations of parents and having special needs,crying persistently or having abnormal physical features练习:1. The difficult situation in the global estimates of the child maltreatment is due to the following factors EXCEPT _according to the passage.A child maltreatment is a global problemB there is no exact data about low-and mid-income countriesC there is a shortage of the professional data collectorsD different scientists use different research methods2.Which of the following statements is ture according to the passage? A 20% of women got sexually abused in their childhood. B 2550of all children were reported to have been physically abused C 25_50of children were psychologically abused D 6075of children were neglected by their parents3Many homicide deaths in children under 15 are wrongly categorized into the following types EXCEPT_ according to the passage A drowning in swimming B diarrhea C bums D falls4Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the bad impact caused by child maltreatment? A The child will behave badly in his memory of his childhood when he grows up B Child maltreatment hurts his nervous and immune systems C Child maltreatment damages his early brain development D The child is easily affected by many diseases in his adulthood5The maltreated children often bear all the following characteristics EXCEPT_ to the passage A they frequently and easily cry B they are in infants or in adolescent period C they are often neglected by their parents or friends D they often try their best to meet the requirements from their parents答案与题解:1C 文中第一段提到了虐待儿童是-全球问题,无法获得中低收入国家中儿童受虐数字资料,第二段开头提到了儿童受虐数字难以统计的另外一个原因,即研究方法的差异性,只有专业统计人员是否缺乏没有提及,因此答案为C。2B文中第二段对数字有明确说明。3B 文中第三段指出每年l5岁以下儿童死亡大概在31,000人,该数字大大低估了实际情况,是因为有相当多的由于受虐而导致死亡的儿童被归因为摔死、烧死、淹死。没有明确指出腹泻,因此可推断出该题答案为B。4A文中提到虐待儿童会导致其出现身体上的疾病,包括神经系统,免疫系统,大脑发育,以及成年后出现的疾病,但那没有提到是否会对其记忆力产生影响,因此,答案为A。5D参见注释。完形填空新增文章*第七篇 ExerciseWhether or not exercise adds _l_ the length of life,it is common experience that a certain_2_of regular exercise improves the health and contributes a feeling of well-beingFurthermore, exercise_3_involves play and recreation,and relieves nervous tension and mental fatigue in so doing, is not only pleasant but beneficial.

You are not to do that不许你那么做。练习:1A for B to C at D of2A heavinessB highness C amount D number3A which B where C when D why4A carry B make C bring D take5A point B place C left D reverse6A these B this C those D that7A against B below C on D of8A easy B hard C impossible D unnecessary9A very B too C constantly D considerably10A depends B bases C acts D carries11A refer B regard C serve D treat12A delayed B defended C designed D determined13A other B another C one D same14A endure B choose C rebuild D produce15A with B from C in D on答案与题解:1B 在四个选项中,add只可以与t0搭配,意为“增加,正符合上下文的意思。2C 在四个选项中,A和B显然不符合逻辑,可供考虑的只有C和D。需要考虑的是, exercise这个词,如果作为“体育锻炼讲是不可数名词,只有作为“一项运动”讲时才是可数名词,根据上下文意思,exercise也不是用来强调体育项目的(没有用复数),而amount正好与不可数名词连用,number则须与可数名词连用,故应选C。3A从语法上分析,主句主语exercise的谓语应该是is not only pleasant but beneficial,中间显然应该是一个定语从句,定语从句所缺少的是主语,故应选A。4D从语法上分析,one should+动词应该是前面那个主语的定语从句,只是定语从句的宾语whichthat被省略了,而四个选项中只有take可与exercise搭配,故应选D。5A 回答这一道题,首先要知道point这个词,既可表达时间(“时刻)或空间(“地点”)也可表达“程度”的意思,to the point of正是“达到的地步程度”的意思,符合上下文要求。 6C本空格后面的0f middle age and beyond提示了本空格要填的词应该是指“人”的词,而且 不止一个人,从上下文看,these显然不合适,因为上文并没有特指哪些人,故只有C合适。 7D本句中is后面应该是表语部分,四个选项中只有of合适,of importance=important,ofvital importance=very,very important . 8B从语法上分析,这个空必须填上一个形容词作question的定语,从上下文分析,只能是hard合适,因为这里的hard=difficult. 9B 前句已经说到,“不同年龄的人从事多少运动是一个难以回答的问题”,显然本句就应是“个人的差异太大,无法一概而论”,因此选择too是最恰当的。我们都知道,tooto的结构具有否定的意义,too great to permit of generalization正是这个意思。 10A虽然四个选项都可以与0n搭配,但act on是“按照行动的意思,carry on是“进行”的意思,不符合上下文要求,只有depend on(“取决于”)和base on(“根据”)可以考虑,但base是及物动词,应该“base sthon”,故只能选择A。 11C虽然四个选项都可以与as连用,但用法和意义各有不同,refer to sbsthas:把说成;regard sbsthas:把当成;treat sbsthas把当成;均不符合上下文的要求,只有serve as(“充当,作为)才在语法上和意义上恰当。 12D前面A、B、C三个选项的词义分别为“推迟”、“保护”、“设计”,与上下文意义风马牛不相及,只有D项“测定、确定”才是恰当选项。 13A前面说到有两个一般性的建议,并且已提到“第一个,那么“另一个”只能考虑A、B两个选项了。二者都有“另一个的意思,只是用法不同,another不用冠词,而the other则需要定冠词the,故选A。 14B 四个选项中A、C、D三个选项的意思与上下文相去甚远,只有B项合适。 0ne should choose是用来做前面主语的定语从句,在定语从句中省略了宾语thatwhich。15C 四个选项中只有in可与participate连用,意为“参加”,in的宾语是引导定语从句的关系代词that.*第八篇 Food Safety and Foodborne Illness Food safety is an increasingly important public health issueGovernments all over the world are 4ntensifying their efforts to improve food safetyThese efforts are in response _l_ an increasing number of food safety problems and_2_ consumer concerns Foodborne illnesses are_3_as diseases,usually either infectious or toxic in nature,caused by agents that enter the body through the ingestion of foodEvery person is_4_risk of foodborne illness Foodborne diseases are a widespread and growing public health problem,both in developed_5_ developing countries The global_6_of foodborne disease is difficult to estimate, but it has been reported that in 2005_7 _ 8 million people died from diarrhoeal diseases1A great_8_ of these cases can be attributed to contamination of food and drinking water_9 _ , diarrhoea is a major cause of malnutrition in infants and young children2 In industrialized countries, the percentage of me population suffering from foodborne diseases each year has been reported to be l0_10_30In the United States of America(USA),for example,around 76 million cases of foodborne diseases, _11_325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths,are estimated to occur each year While less well documented,developing countries bear the brunt of the
