10.Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach to make him strong.People watched him,and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach.Popeye helped sell 33percent more spinach than before!Spinach became a necessary part of many people's diets.Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong,but this is not true.Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.
People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake.In the 1890s,a group of people studied what was inside vegetables.This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did.The group wrote the number wrong,and everyone accepted it.
Today,we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is.However,spinach does have something else which the body needs-folic acid.It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong.Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.

25.Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A
A.They thought spinach made them strong.
B.They thought Popeye was funny.
C.Spinach had a lot of iron.
D.People liked folic acid.

A.made Popeye strong
B.was a green vegetable
C.had less iron than other green vegetables
D.had more iron than other green vegetables
27.The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength fromB.
A.iron
B.folic acid
C.spinach
D.exercise
28.Folic acid isA.
A.something in food
B.a(chǎn) vegetable

D.a(chǎn) certain kind of spinach.

分析 本文屬于說(shuō)明文閱讀,作者通過(guò)這篇文章主要向我們描述了介紹了菠菜使人強(qiáng)壯的秘訣,上世紀(jì)看過(guò)"大力水手"卡通影片讓人們愛(ài)上菠菜,認(rèn)為吃了菠菜就能像"大力水手"一樣強(qiáng)壯,菠菜的銷(xiāo)量劇增,連討厭吃菠菜的小孩也愛(ài)上吃菠菜.人們認(rèn)為由于菠菜中含有的大量的鐵使他們強(qiáng)壯,然而在今天這些經(jīng)證實(shí)是錯(cuò)誤的,人們發(fā)現(xiàn)真正的原因是菠菜中的葉酸使人變得強(qiáng)壯.

解答 25.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第一段"The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach to make him strong.People watched him,and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach"吃了不少的菠菜使大力水手變得強(qiáng)壯.人們看著他,他們開(kāi)始購(gòu)買(mǎi)和多吃菠菜;可知人們吃菠菜是因?yàn)檎J(rèn)為菠菜使人強(qiáng)壯;故選A.
26.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段"This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did"可知研究小組告訴人們菠菜含有比其他蔬菜多十倍的鐵;故選D.
27.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章末段It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong.Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.可知葉酸會(huì)給人提供能量,或許大力水手的力量就是由此而來(lái)的,故答案選B.
28.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第四段spinach does have something else which the body needs-folic acid.可知folic acid(葉酸)是存在于菠菜中的,由此推斷答案選A.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
