解答 13.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容But at 5feet,175pounds,he found his weight a trouble.由此可知,Jones的最大的問題就是體重過重,結(jié)合選項(xiàng),故選B.
14.D 推理判斷題.劃線句意為"這項(xiàng)研究可不僅僅是一家保險(xiǎn)公司的商貿(mào)事務(wù)",由后一句"It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals"可知,諸多體育、健康從業(yè)者也參與到了這項(xiàng)研究中,由此可推斷這項(xiàng)研究并不僅僅涉及保險(xiǎn)公司,故正確答案為D.
15:B 推理判斷題.由末段第一句"The US Education Department is putting the game in 20 schools to control childhood obesity"可推斷,美國政府高度認(rèn)可這款游戲,因此才會(huì)將其投放至20所學(xué)校.故正確答案為B.
