6.The World Health Organization (WHO) planned to study the relationship between the eating habits of the people and the disease.Two doctors were chosen to make the study.They flew to Africa south of the Sahara and during the next two months visited ten countries.They found that serious diseases of poor eating,often mistaken for other diseases,existed in all parts of Africa.The diseases were similar and could therefore all be named kwashiorkor.The diseased children are usually from one to four years old.As the illness progresses,the child's stomach becomes swollen by liquid collecting in the body.The skin changes color and may break out in open sores(疼痛).The hair changes color and starts to fall out.The patient loses all interest in his surroundings and even in food,and becomes so weak that he wants to lie down all the time.Stomach liquids are no longer produced.
The doctors reasoned that kwashiorkor was found in the young children of this age in many parts of Africa because of lack of milk or meat.Their mothers,after stopping their breastfeeding,gave them foods full of starches(淀粉)instead of greatly needed proteins.They found that the addition of milk to the food of the children suffering from kwashiorkor saved many lives.
The unbelievable thing about kwashiorkor is that the very existence of the disease-which has been killing thousands of children for centuries-was not even recognized in Latin America as recently as ten years ago.The deaths of those children were mistakenly listed as due to other diseases.It was the WHO's work in Africa that led to the discovery of the problem in Central America.
63.From the passage we learn that kwashiorkor is a disease caused byB.
A.poor living conditions              
B.lack of proteins in food
C.breastfeeding                     
D.lack of food
64.It is difficult to discover kwashiorkor becauseD.
A.it has no symptoms at all
B.it is hard to identify signs of it
C.it doesn't last long enough for careful observation
D.it is hardly different from other diseases
65.What is mentioned as a simple but reasonable way of curing this disease?C
A.Taking a special medicine.
B.Avoiding any food containing starch.
C.Having more meat or milk.
D.Taking medicine full of proteins.
66.What's the best title for the article?B
A.Milk and Meat Are Daily Necessities
B.Kwashiorkor and Improper Eating Habits
C.A New Form of Illness in Africa and Latin America
D.A Case of Eating Habits.

分析 本文是一篇新聞報道類閱讀,文章主要講述了世界衛(wèi)生組織的調(diào)查表明,蛋白質(zhì)營養(yǎng)不良造成了非洲大量的兒童死亡.針對這個狀況,WHO 采取了相應(yīng)的措施來挽救兒童的生命.

解答 62-65  BDCB
62.B細節(jié)理解題.從第二段的句子:The doctors reasoned that kwashiorkor was found in the young children of this age in many parts of Africa because of lack of milk or meat.Their mothers,after stopping their breastfeeding,gave them foods full of starches(淀粉)instead of greatly needed proteins.可知醫(yī)生推斷,在非洲許多地區(qū)的兒童都患有夸休可爾癥,其原因是缺乏乳品或肉品.他們的母親停止母乳喂養(yǎng)后,用淀粉類的食物來代替蛋白質(zhì).由此可知,kwashiorkor這種病是由于食品中缺乏蛋白質(zhì)造成的.故選B.
63.D細節(jié)判斷題.從第一段的句子:They found that serious diseases of poor eating,often mistaken for other diseases,existed in all parts of Africa.The diseases were similar and could therefore all be named kwashiorkor.可知他們發(fā)現(xiàn)這種由不好的飲食導(dǎo)致的嚴(yán)重疾病,經(jīng)常被誤認為是其他疾病,而在非洲各地都存在這種疾病,它們之間很相似.由此可知,kwashiorkor很難被發(fā)現(xiàn)因為他的癥狀和其他的病沒什么不同.故選D.
64.C細節(jié)理解題.從第二段的句子:They found that the addition of milk to the food of the children suffering from kwashiorkor saved many lives.可知治療這個病的簡單的方法是在食物中增加更多的肉和牛奶.故選C.
65.B標(biāo)題確定題.這篇文章講的是因為飲食不適當(dāng)引起kwashiorkor這種疾病,所以Kwashiorkor and Improper Eating Habits是最恰當(dāng)?shù)臉?biāo)題.故選B.

點評 閱讀這類文章時,也應(yīng)該在整體把握文章結(jié)構(gòu)的前提下,主要注意細節(jié)信息.細節(jié)題題干都是相應(yīng)原文的變形(如同義改寫、詞性轉(zhuǎn)換等),因此要找到答案一定要找到題干在原文中的出處,再把原文和選項相比較.做題時,根據(jù)所提問題用尋讀、跳讀的方法可達到事半功倍的效果.

17.A campaign(活動) is being launched to encourage children to surrender 30minutes of screen time a day to head for the great outdoors.
The newly formed Wild Network-a collaboration of nearly 400organizations-is attempting to attract youngsters away from television and computer screen and to fields,woods and parks.Members of the network include the National Trust,RSPB,Play England and the NHS.Organizers say it is the UK's biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and outdoor play,and claim it could help improve fitness,mental alertness(機敏) and general wellbeing.
A documentary film,Project Wild Thing,will forecast the launch at more than 50cinemas across the UK from Friday.It looks at the increasing link between children and nature.

Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include collecting conkers(七葉樹果),camping or snail racing,and observing autumn colour on trees.
From January,the network will aim to make suggestions to politicians on how government can do more to get children muddy and bright-eyed.
This is not the first time the message of less screen,more play has been brought up.Children in the 1980s were requested to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don't You,which somewhat confusingly called on its viewers to"switch off your TV set and go to do something less boring instead".

14.In most developed countries the government provides free education for children because it realizes that educated citizens are useful to the country in their later life.Most countries also have private (私立的)education.This means that parents can pay to send their children to certain schools.People who agree with this system say that it gives parents a larger choice of schools.Other people think that private schools give the children who go to them an unfair advantage over other children.
At the age of three,many children go to nursery school.Two or three years later,they enter a primary school.At the age of 11they go to a secondary school.Then they may have a chance.of continuing their studies at a university or college.
Universities and colleges are places where some young people go to continue their education after leaving school.Most university students study one main subject,though they may also study a number of others.Teaching is usually by lectures,or by discussions between a lecturer and students.
Most students stay at university for three or four years.At the end of that,they take an examination.If they pass,they receive their Bachelor's degree,usually a BA,which is short for Bachelor of Arts,or a BS for Bachelor of Science.Some students study for several more years in order to get higher degree,such as a MA or a PhD
Most university courses don't train students to do a certain job.Colleges,on the other hand,usually teach skills which enable students to follow a career(職業(yè)),such as clothing design,or business studies.

56.The passage mainly tells usC.
A Something about the private schools in developed countries
B.How developed countries pay attention to education
C.Some general information about education in developed countries
D.Why education is important
57.Why do most developed countries provide free education to children?B
A.Because the children don't have money to go to school.
B.Because the government want their citizens to be useful to the country.
C.Because education doesn't cost the country too much money.
D.Because there are not enough private schools.
58.Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?D
A.All the university students study one subject.
B.After studying at the university for three or four years,all the students can
get a Bachelor's degree.

1.When parents talk about school safety these days,they're usually referring to the increase in violence(暴力)at schools.But research shows that school-age children are actually nine times more likely to suffer an injury while doing sports than to be the victim of violence while at school.Accidents can be prevented if parents are on the lookout for potential(潛在的)dangers.To help you keep your kids free from harm,here are some safety tips:
