Unit 1 School life李仕才一、阅读理解。阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。Those who claim bananas are fattening argue that bananas cause the body to make lots of insulin(胰岛素),and insulin causes fat growth.How much insulin we produce is related to how fast food becomes sugar in our bloodstream.How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic index(血糖指数),or GI rating tells us.Foods with GI scores above 75 are considered highGI foods,leading to faster sugar development.Bananas have a GI of 62,which is considered low.Weight loss can be a struggle for anyone,but it is especially hard for diabetics(糖尿病患者)A study looked at how the starch from unripe bananas affected the weight of a group of obese diabetics.After four weeks of a diet high in bananas,diabetics lost significantly more weight than on a control diet.They also saw improvements in insulin sensitivity from the banana diet.Whats more,bananas have been shown to cut risks of strokes,diabetes and cancers(Bananas are the most powerful fruit for lowering the risk of kidney cancer.)Bananas are also a rich source of fiber,which has been shown to help weight loss.Bananas that still have some green on the skin are even higher in fiber.Skins from green bananas can be taken and,after removing the stem and dark tip,cut into small pieces 23 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.These pieces can be made into a tea or added to a dish.When you eat the skins,be sure you are eating organic bananas.The flesh of regular bananas is low in pesticides,but the skins are not.1What conclusion can we draw from Paragraphs 1&2?ABananas are likely to make people fat.BInsulin determines the amount of sugar.CLowGI foods can turn into sugar more slowly.DThe faster the food becomes sugar,the less insulin.2What does the author say about bananas?AIncluding bananas in diets is good for health.BBananas can cure people suffering kidney cancer.CEating organic bananas protect people from strokes.DBananas abundant fiber improves insulin sensitivity.3What is discussed in the last paragraph?AThe use of banana skins.BThe benefits of banana skins.CThe importance of banana skins.DThe ways of choosing organic bananas.4In which section of a newspaper can we read this passage?AEducation. BHealth.CCulture. DScience.【解题导语】本文反驳了“吃香蕉会使人发胖”这一错误观点,告诉大家香蕉不会使身体分泌很多胰岛素而导致脂肪增加,相反,香蕉对身体健康有着诸多好处。1C考查推理判断。根据第二段中“How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly?

and,finally,the enjoyment of the contents.Letter writing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember.It probably began with the little notes I would write to my mother.My mother,also,always insisted I write my own thankyou letters for Christmas and birthday presents. 2 When I left home at 18 to train as a doctor in London,I would write once a week,and so would my mother.Occasionally my father would write and it was always a joy to receive his long,amusing letters. 3 Of course,we also made phone calls but it is the letters that I remember most.There were also letters from my boyfriends.In my youth I seemed to attract people who had to work or study away at some time and we were only able to stay in touch by letter. 4 I found that I could often express myself more easily in writing than by talking.I love the letters that come with birthday or Christmas cards.Notes are appreciated,but how much better to have a years supply of news!And its better still when its an airmail envelope with beautiful stamps. 5 Like my mother before me,I insist they write their own thankyou letters.My daughter writes to me little letters,just as I did to my mother.I strongly ur
