Unit 1 Food for thought 单元话题阅读理解练习 （24-25高一上·浙江·期中）New research suggests links between ultra-processed (超加工) foods — such as chips, many cereals and most packaged snacks at the grocery store — and changes in the way we learn, remember and feel. Many ultra-processed foods hit the brain rapidly when we eat them and have a strong effect on its reward system, which is involved in pleasure, motivation and learning. Those effects are similar to ones when people use nicotine, alcohol and other addictive drugs, said Ashley Gearhardt, a professor of psychology at the University of Michigan. “People have a very strong desire for ultra-processed foods and eat them compulsively and find they can’t stop eating them,” she said. The combination of high levels of both fat and carbs (碳水化合物) in many ultra-processed foods is likely why we are addicted to them. Foods in nature are often high in fat or carbs, but not both. Bananas are naturally high in sugar but you eat one and you’re good. Scientists were surprised to find that people who had been eating a high-fat, high-sugar snack also had changes in how their brains learned. In a study, four days of having a breakfast high in saturated (饱和的) fat and added sugar was linked to reductions in performance on some learning and memory tests, according to researchers in Australia. People who had a healthier breakfast didn’t have the performance changes. 1．What will probably happen if we eat too many ultra-processed foods? A．Our brains may be hit rapidly and we may get ill. B．We can never quit ultra-processed foods once we are addicted to it. C．We may find it difficult to keep English words and phrases in mind. D．We may become addicted to nicotine, alcohol and other addictive drugs. 2．What does the underlined word in paragraph 4 mean? A．Strongly. B．Extremely. C．Equally. D．Uncontrollably. 3．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A．Foods high in fat or carbs are really addictive. B．The intake of ultra-processed foods has a negative effect on learning. C．People who have a healthier breakfast can perform better in a memory test. D．Drinking alcohol, though has a similar effect as eating chips, does less harm to our brains. 4．How does the writer develop the last paragraph? A．Giving examples. B．Listing figures. C．Making comparisons. D．Explaining cause and effect. （24-25高一上·广东深圳·期中）Astronauts get to experience many interesting attractions. When astronauts go to space, they can become weightless. They get to see Earth as a little blue dot. Astronauts get to experience shooting up into space at 20,000 miles per hour. That is more than three times faster than an airplane. Still, food is not one of the interesting parts of being an astronaut. Space travelers have had to eat strange foods. One example is liquid salt and pepper. They have also had to eat dried shrimp cocktail. The astronauts add water to it to make it a liquid again before eating. However, the menu for astronauts is going to grow. Scientists have been growing lettuce (生菜) in outer space. The lettuce is just as safe, nutritious and tasty as lettuce grown on Earth. Gioia Massa works at the NASA Kennedy Space Center in Florida. She is the lead scientist on the lettuce growing project. She said that growing food in space could be pivotal for astronauts on long flying missions. Massa says that today’s space food may not work for these longer flying missions. This packaged food is stored for a long time. The quality and taste of the food goes down. In addition, the vitamins in the food start to breakdown. Massa says the astronauts may not get enough nutrition from these foods during long flying missions. She also added that there could be another benefit to growing food in space. Looking after plants could help astronauts emotionally. Space food has improved in recent years. Many astronauts visit the International Space Station (ISS). It is a research station in outer space. Anything sent to ISS has to score at least a 6 out of 9 on a taste test. Even so, astronauts can grow tired of eating the same old vacuum-packed (真空包装的) meals. Massa says many of the astronauts end up losing weight. The space-grown lettuce was similar to Earth-grown lettuce. In fact, some of the space-grown plants had more nutrients than Earth-grown lettuce. The space lettuce also had higher levels of bacteria. This was possibly because the lettuce grew in a warmer, more wet environment. However, none of this bacteria was dangerous. 1．Why does the author mention some strange foods space travelers have had to eat? A．To draw a conclusion. B．To introduce the topic. C．To attract readers’ attention. D．To give explanations. 2．What does the underlined word “pivotal” mean in the second paragraph? A．Adventurous. B．Negative. C．Important. D．Possible. 3．Which of the following may NOT be the one that Massa probably agrees? A．Astronauts can get nutrition from growing lettuce in space. B．Growing food in space gives astronauts a more varied diet. C．Astronauts get help emotionally by looking after plants in space. D．Astronauts never grow tired of eating the same old packaged food. 4．What may happen in the following days according to the text? A．More and more astronauts will end up losing weight. B．It will not be long before astronauts can cook these lettuces. C．NASA plans to grow other produce on the ISS. D．More vacuum-packed meals will be sent to ISS. （24-25高一上·宁夏银川·期中）A new study has found that including climate impact labels (标签) on a fast food menu influenced participants’ food choices in favor of more climate-friendly items. Study lead author Julia Wolfson, associate professor in the Department of International Health at the Bloomberg School, and her co-authors wanted to test how labeling climate change impacts of fast food menu items might lead people to choose less red meat. Eating too much red meat has been linked to many health problems. Eating less red meat would also help lower greenhouse gas emissions (排放). More than 5,000 participants were shown a sample menu and asked to choose a single item for dinner. One group of participants received a menu with non-red meat items such as chicken sandwiches labeled “low climate impact”. Another group received a menu with red meat items— burgers labeled “high climate impact”. A third control group received menus without climate labels. Both the high and low climate impact labels markedly reduced red meat choices compared to the control group. Menus with a high climate impact label on burgers increased non-beef choices by 23 percent compared to the control group. Menus that included low climate impact labels increased non-beef choices, such as a chicken sandwich or a salad, by about 10 percent more participants than those in the control group. “These results suggest that menu labeling, particularly labels warning that an item has high climate impact, can be an effective strategy for encouraging more sustainable (可持续的) food choices in a fast food setting,” says Wolfson. While encouraging on the whole, the results suggest that positive “low climate impact” labels are less effective in encouraging sustainable food choices compared to “high climate impact” labels. At the same time, climate labels may have the unwanted side effect of making a choice seem healthier than it actually is. “An undeserved health halo (光环) given to unhealthy menu items could encourage people to overeat them,” Wolfson says. “So we have to look for labeling strategies that create ‘win-wins’ for encouraging both more sustainable and healthy choices.” 1．What’s the aim of the new study? A．To decide the best method for labeling food products in general. B．To discover the impact of climate labels on fast food choices. C．To find out the connection between red meat and health problems. D．To encourage sustainable food choices in fast food restaurants. 2．What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The influence of the study. B．The results of the study. C．The importance of the study. D．The process of the study. 3．What potential effect could climate labels cause? A．They may cause confusion among consumers. B．They might result in people consuming more red meat. C．They could make a food item seem healthier than it is. D．They may lead to an increase in vegetarian choices. 4．What is Wolfson’s attitude towards climate impact labels on food? A．Supportive. B．Cautious. C．Objective. D．Uninterested. （24-25高一上·湖北襄阳·期中）“Gluten free (无麸质), lactose free, vegan...” These ideas on diet might sound unfamiliar to many in China. That’s why Wang Jiaqi, a 16-year-old girl from Beijing, opened a special ice cream store called EIS Engelchen in Beijing’s Sanlitun, to spread a healthier way to enjoy ice cream. “My friends and I love ice cream, but we’ve never encountered an ice cream that really ‘wows’ us,” Wang said. Then one day she heard her mom say that she had the best ice cream of her life at a café in a little town in Germany. “I immediately wanted to go there and try it for myself,” she added. Lucky for her, during her summer holiday, Wang was able to go to the town and work as a waitress in the café selling ice cream. “I not only got to taste it myself, but also learned about the healthy idea. In China, where many people are lactose intolerant (乳糖不耐受) or vegan, finding suitable ice cream is challenging due to the common use of milk and eggs.” So, Wang decided to bring this ice cream back to China to be enjoyed by even more people. At the time, the brand was only sold to cafés and hotels in Germany. But after discussions with the brand’s management, Wang not only gained the right to sell the ice cream but also opened the first physical EIS Engelchen store–all the way away in China. Wang believes that starting a business begins with something small and is a step-by-step process. “When I was in primary school, I sold products like cookies made by myself among students,” Wang said. “I think business is about noticing problems around you and working out ways to solve them.” 1．Where did Wang Jiaqi hear of the German ice cream for the first time? A．From her mother. B．In the café. C．From her friend. D．From the internet. 2．Why did Wang Jiaqi open the ice cream store in Beijing? A．She wanted to provide a place for friends to hang out. B．She was trying to promote traditional Chinese ice cream flavors. C．She wanted to solve the problem of lactose intolerance in China. D．She wanted to promote a healthier way to enjoy ice cream in China. 3．Which of the following word can best describe Wang Jiaqi? A．Business-minded. B．Kind-hearted. C．Hard-working. D．Strong-willed. 4．What’s the main idea of the text? A．A teenager called on people to eat healthy food. B．A Chinese girl started her own ice cream business. C．Bringing German food to China faced great challenges. D．Traditional ice cream was increasingly popular among students. （24-25高一上·安徽宿州·阶段练习）A 2010 national law that improved nutrition(营养)standards for school meals may have begun to help slow the rise in obesity(肥胖)among America’s children according to a study. The study found a small but significant fall in the average BMI(体重指数)of more than 14,000 school kids aged 5 to 18 after carrying out the program of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which was the first national law to improve the nutritional balance of school meal offerings in more than 20 years. It increased the quantity of fruits, vegetables and whole grains required in school meals. The study shows that improving the quality of school meals by law might be one way to help stop the possibilities of childhood obesity, which has been rising for decades and now affects about 1 in 5 US kids. The new study reviewed nationwide data(数据)from 50 groups of schoolchildren from January 2005 to August 2016, before the law took effect, and data from September 2016 to March 2020, after it was fully carried out. It found that a BMI for children fell by 0.041 units per year, compared with that of before the law took effect. That amounts to about a quarter of one BMI unit per year, Aruna Chandran, a professor from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said. At the same time, significant decreases in BMI measures were seen not only in kids aged 5 to 11, but also in those aged 12 to 18. “That’s a great change, ” Chandran said. “There are kid who potentially have their own right to buy their own snacks.” The new results come within days of the introduction of updated standards for school meals, including the first limits on added sugars, decreased sodium and increased flexibility for whole grains. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said the study shows that healthy school meals are “important for dealing with diet-related conditions like obesity.” 1．What’s the purpose of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010? A．To improve school meals. B．To record the change of BMI. C．To check medical conditions. D．To help end hunger. 2．How did the study learn about the effect of the program? A．By collecting stories. B．By presenting examples. C．By making a comparison. D．By giving reasons. 3．How did Chandran feel about the program? A．Uninterested. B．Satisfied C．Worried. D．Confused. 4．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the text? A．Health. B．Sport. C．History. D．Science. （24-25高一上·江西上饶·期中）Fast food like potato chips and onion rings is going high-tech, thanks to a company named Miso Robotics in California, the Us. Not long ago, Miso Robotics’ Flippy 2 robot came out. It can do all the tasks of cooking fried (油炸的) food for fast food restaurants. Flippy 2’s robotic arm is similar to a machine in car factories. When an order comes, the robot takes food out of a fridge, pour them into hot oil and put them into a serving plate. It can help businesses reduce workers and save money. Mike Bell, the leader of the company explained how the system (系统) works. A food order is added to the restaurant system and then automatically (自动地) sent to Flippy 2. Bell says that Flippy works faster, more accurately, more dependably and more happily than most humans. Flippy 2 was in development for five years and has just become commercially (商业地) available. The robot’s name comes from an earlier robot named Flippy. Flippy was designed to flip (翻转) fast-food burgers. But after Miso’s team finished that machine, they saw there was a greater need at the fry station, especially late at night. Several restaurant chains (连锁店) have started using the robotic fry cook. Later, the company is developing Sippy, a drink-making robot that will take orders from buyers and prepare drinks. Bell says that there are lots of famous fast-food chains and a small number of restaurants in the US using Flippy 2, but they don’t want to advertise it. Some people think it’s not fail that robots might be taking jobs away from humans. 1．What can Flippy 2 do? A．Place an order. B．Serve the table. C．Cook fried food. 2．What does the underlined word “accurately” mean in Paragraph 3? A．精准地 B．自由地 C．远程地 3．What do Flippy 2 and Sippy have in common? A．They are only used in fast food chains. B．They are developed by the same company. C．They take orders from buyers and prepare drink. 4．In which part of a magazine can we read the passage? A．Sports world. B．Star stories. C．Science study. （24-25高一上·四川南充·阶段练习）Food is key to our daily functions by fueling our activity and supporting our bodies and minds. In space, where astronauts face extreme environmental and physical changes, the need for safe, nutritious and energy- laden food is particularly vital to overall health. Space food must provide enough energy to fuel astronauts on their demanding missions, according to NASA．In microgravity (low gravity state that makes astronauts appear to be weightless) environments, proper nutrition can fight against the resulting degradation of bones and muscles. For example, vitamins D, K and C aid in synthesizing (合成) calcium into bone. Meanwhile, dietary supplements like iron, omega-3 fatty acids and B12 can make up for dietary insufficiency. After decades of nutritional studies and food technology advancements, NASA has moved focus away from supplements and dietary formulas  (配方) toward providing as many nutrients from fruits and vegetables as possible. However, it can be difficult to rely heavily on fruits and vegetables as a space food source because they don’t contain many calories. This poses an issue for spaceflight, where cargo (货物) room is precious. NASA can’t merely consider health when designing space food, though. The nutritional value of a meal only goes so far if it doesn’t appeal to astronauts. Rather, Grace Douglas, the lead scientist for NASA’s Advanced Food Technology research group, and her colleagues aim to offer astronauts several meal. options to avoid menu fatigue (疲劳). Such variety also provides psychological health benefits.“ Food becomes more important with mission duration because it’s one of the only familiar things that they have, ” Douglas says. As space organizations look ahead to. long- duration missions, it will be key to craft a sustainable food source that doesn’t require resupply missions. To achieve this, NASA scientists are studying the best ways to grow crops in microgravity. On the International Space Station, astronauts have successfully grow n a variety of leafy greens and flowers in the Vegetable Production System, known as Veggie. Eating a fresh leafy green could help astronauts feel connected with the distant green planet they call home. 1．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．The importance of space food design. B．The challenges for astronauts in space. C．The general requirements for space food. D．The impact of microgravity on astronauts. 2．How do Douglas’s team enhance astronauts’ dining experience? A．They make food look appealing. B．They rearrange the menu schedule. C．They provide multiple food choices. D．They conduct taste tests on astronauts. 3．What can astronauts expect from Veggie? A．A supplement to the oxygen supply. B．Supply of psychological comfort C．Enhancement of the nutritional quality. D．An improvement in communication with Earth. 4．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．How do astronauts eat in space? B．What makes space food so special? C．What space food will we have in the future? D．How do scientists build the best diet for astronauts? （23-24高一上·福建莆田·期中）Would you like your kids to have fun in the kitchen while learning to make healthy foods for themselves? Maybe they can become little kitchen helpers as long as they can hold a spoon. When they can hold a carrot stick or pick up something small with their tiny fingers, it is the time for kids to learn to like vegetables. As they get older, kids can help to prepare one or more favorite meals each week. And finally, they may take a turn as the main chef (厨师). For some kids, it’s surprising to learn that soup doesn’t just come from a can and that pizza doesn’t always come in a box. In fact, pizzas don’t need to be fatty or oily — they can be a healthy way pack lots of vegetables into family menus. If kids don’t like homemade soups or cooked vegetables, they may become more “vegetable friendly” when they help with preparation. To start, they can wash carrots. When they are older and can use knives safely, they may help with cutting. You’ll find that they’ve eaten half the carrot long before you start cooking the soup. Besides, getting kids to help with cooking can make Mom or Dad free from feeling like a short-order(快餐) cook. For parents, your job is to make sure there are safe cooking plans to protect the kids from getting hurt. Find ways to help kids take part in cooking more actively. You can describe what they are doing, tell them where food comes from, raise questions to encourage them to talk more, etc. 1．What does the author say in the first paragraph? A．Kids like to cook for themselves. B．It’s natural for kids to enjoy cooking. C．Older kids are able to cook by themselves. D．It’s never too early to get kids to help with cooking. 2．What can kids learn while helping with cooking according to the text? A．How to use knives safely. B．How to make a short order. C．How to eat in a healthy way. D．How to choose food for the family. 3．What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A．To share experience. B．To give parents advice. C．To offer cooking methods. D．To give parents encouragement. 4．What is the best title for the text? A．Kids Can Cook B．Cooking at Home C．Learning to Cook a Meal D．Parents Are Short-Order Cooks 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 1 Food for thought 单元话题阅读理解练习 （24-25高一上·浙江·期中）New research suggests links between ultra-processed (超加工) foods — such as chips, many cereals and most packaged snacks at the grocery store — and changes in the way we learn, remember and feel.

Space travelers have had to eat strange foods. One example is liquid salt and pepper. They have also had to eat dried shrimp cocktail. The astronauts add water to it to make it a liquid again before eating.(不过，食物并不是宇航员有趣的部分之一。太空旅行者不得不吃奇怪的食物。其中一个例子就是液态盐和胡椒粉。他们还不得不喝干虾鸡尾酒。宇航员在吃之前往里面加水使它再次变成液体)”及第二段“However, the menu for astronauts is going to grow. Scientists have been growing lettuce (生菜) in outer space.(然而，宇航员的菜单将会越来越多。科学家们一直在外太空种植莴苣)”可知，文章第一段提起宇航员不得不吃的奇怪食物是为了引出第二段的太空种植莴苣这个主题。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第二段划线词后文“Massa says that today’s space food may not work for these longer flying missions. This packaged food is stored for a long time. The quality and taste of the food goes down. In addition, the vitamins in the food start to breakdown. Massa says the astronauts may not get enough nutrition from these foods during long flying missions.(马萨说，今天的太空食品可能不适用于这些长期的飞行任务。这种包装食品可以储存很长时间。食物的质量和味道都下降了。此外，食物中的维生素开始分解。马萨说，在长期的飞行任务中，宇航员可能无法从这些食物中获得足够的营养)”可知，马萨认为太空包装食品不太利于宇航员获得营养，因此，在太空中种植食物可能对执行长期飞行任务的宇航员至关重要。由此可知，划线词与important意思相近。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Even so, astronauts can grow tired of eating the same old vacuum-packed (真空包装的) meals. Massa says many of the astronauts end up losing weight.(即便如此，宇航员也会厌倦吃同样的老式真空包装食物。马萨说，很多宇航员最终都瘦了)”可知，宇航员会厌倦吃包装食品，并不是永远不会厌烦。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“She also added that there could be another benefit to growing food in space. Looking after plants could help astronauts emotionally. Space food has improved in recent years.(她还补充说，在太空种植食物还有另一个好处。照顾植物可以在情感上帮助宇航员。近年来，太空食品有所改进)”及“In fact, some of the space-grown plants had more nutrients than Earth-grown lettuce.(事实上，一些在太空生长的植物比在地球上生长的莴苣含有更多的营养)”可推知，太空种植植物有很多好处，在之后的日子，美国宇航局将计划在国际空间站上种植其他农产品。故选C。 （24-25高一上·宁夏银川·期中）A new study has found that including climate impact labels (标签) on a fast food menu influenced participants’ food choices in favor of more climate-friendly items.

One group of participants received a menu with non- red meat items such as chicken sandwiches labeled “low climate impact”. Another group received a menu with red meat items — burgers labeled “high climate impact”. A third control group received menus without climate labels.(研究人员向5000多名参与者展示了一份菜单样本，并要求他们在晚餐中选择一种食物。一组参与者收到了一份菜单，上面有非红肉项目，如鸡肉三明治，标有“低气候影响”。另一组人收到的菜单上有红肉——标签为“高气候影响”的汉堡。第三个对照组收到的菜单没有气候标签)”可知，第三段的主要内容是研究的过程。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“At the same time, climate labels may have the unwanted side effect of making a choice seem healthier than it actually is.(同时，气候标签可能会产生不必要的副作用，使选择看起来比实际更健康)”可知，气候标签可以使食物看起来比实际更健康。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段““An undeserved health halo (光环) given to unhealthy menu items could encourage people to overeat them,” Wolfson says. “So we have to look for labeling strategies that create ‘win- wins’ for encouraging both more sustainable and healthy choices.”(沃尔夫森说：“给不健康菜单上的食物戴上不应有的健康光环，可能会鼓励人们过量食用。因此，我们必须寻找能够创造‘双赢’的标签策略，以鼓励更可持续和更健康的选择。”)”可知，Wolfson对食品上的气候影响标签持谨慎态度。故选B。 （24-25高一上·湖北襄阳·期中）“Gluten free (无麸质), lactose free, vegan...” These ideas on diet might sound unfamiliar to many in China. That’s why Wang Jiaqi, a 16-year-old girl from Beijing, opened a special ice cream store called EIS Engelchen in Beijing’s Sanlitun, to spread a healthier way to enjoy ice cream. “My friends and I love ice cream, but we’ve never encountered an ice cream that really ‘wows’ us,” Wang said. Then one day she heard her mom say that she had the best ice cream of her life at a café in a little town in Germany. “I immediately wanted to go there and try it for myself,” she added. Lucky for her, during her summer holiday, Wang was able to go to the town and work as a waitress in the café selling ice cream. “I not only got to taste it myself, but also learned about the healthy idea. In China, where many people are lactose intolerant (乳糖不耐受) or vegan, finding suitable ice cream is challenging due to the common use of milk and eggs.” So, Wang decided to bring this ice cream back to China to be enjoyed by even more people. At the time, the brand was only sold to cafés and hotels in Germany. But after discussions with the brand’s management, Wang not only gained the right to sell the ice cream but also opened the first physical EIS Engelchen store–all the way away in China. Wang believes that starting a business begins with something small and is a step-by-step process. “When I was in primary school, I sold products like cookies made by myself among students,” Wang said. “I think business is about noticing problems around you and working out ways to solve them.” 1．Where did Wang Jiaqi hear of the German ice cream for the first time? A．From her mother. B．In the café. C．From her friend. D．From the internet. 2．Why did Wang Jiaqi open the ice cream store in Beijing? A．She wanted to provide a place for friends to hang out. B．She was trying to promote traditional Chinese ice cream flavors. C．She wanted to solve the problem of lactose intolerance in China. D．She wanted to promote a healthier way to enjoy ice cream in China. 3．Which of the following word can best describe Wang Jiaqi? A．Business-minded. B．Kind-hearted. C．Hard-working. D．Strong-willed. 4．What’s the main idea of the text? A．A teenager called on people to eat healthy food. B．A Chinese girl started her own ice cream business. C．Bringing German food to China faced great challenges. D．Traditional ice cream was increasingly popular among students. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了16岁的北京女孩王佳琪因对健康饮食的兴趣，将德国的一款特别冰淇淋引进中国，开设了EIS Engelchen冰淇淋店，旨在提供更健康的冰淇淋选择。 1．细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Then one day she heard her mom say that she had the best ice cream of her life at a café in a little town in Germany. (后来有一天，她听到妈妈说，她在德国一个小镇的咖啡馆里吃到了她一生中最好吃的冰淇淋。)”可知，她是从她妈妈那里第一次听说德国冰淇淋的。故选A。 2．细节理解题。由文章第三段中““I not only got to taste it myself, but also learned about the healthy idea. In China, where many people are lactose intolerant (乳糖不耐受) or vegan, finding suitable ice cream is challenging due to the common use of milk and eggs.” So, Wang decided to bring this ice cream back to China to be enjoyed by even more people. (“我不仅自己品尝了它，还学到了健康的理念。在中国，很多人都是乳糖不耐症或素食主义者，由于牛奶和鸡蛋的普遍使用，找到合适的冰淇淋是一项挑战。”因此，王决定把这种冰淇淋带回中国，让更多的人享用。)”可知，她想在中国推广一种更健康的享用冰淇淋的方式，因此在北京开冰淇淋店。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Wang believes that starting a business begins with something small and is a step-by-step process. “When I was in primary school, I sold products like cookies made by myself among students,” Wang said. “I think business is about noticing problems around you and working out ways to solve them.” (王认为，创业从小事做起，是一个循序渐进的过程。王说：“当我在小学的时候，我向学生们出售自己做的饼干等产品。”“我认为，做生意就是要注意你周围的问题，并找出解决问题的方法。”)”可知，她从小就有商业头脑。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段““Gluten free (无麸质), lactose free, vegan...” These ideas on diet might sound unfamiliar to many in China. That’s why Wang Jiaqi, a 16-year-old girl from Beijing, opened a special ice cream store called EIS Engelchen in Beijing’s Sanlitun, to spread a healthier way to enjoy ice cream. (“无麸质，无乳糖，素食……”对于许多中国人来说，这些关于饮食的想法可能听起来很陌生。这就是为什么来自北京的16岁女孩王佳琪在北京三里屯开了一家名为EIS Engelchen的特殊冰淇淋店，传播一种更健康的吃冰淇淋方式。)”可知，本文主要讲述了一个中国女孩开始了自己的冰淇淋生意。故选B。 （24-25高一上·安徽宿州·阶段练习）A 2010 national law that improved nutrition(营养)standards for school meals may have begun to help slow the rise in obesity(肥胖)among America’s children according to a study. The study found a small but significant fall in the average BMI(体重指数)of more than 14,000 school kids aged 5 to 18 after carrying out the program of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which was the first national law to improve the nutritional balance of school meal offerings in more than 20 years. It increased the quantity of fruits, vegetables and whole grains required in school meals. The study shows that improving the quality of school meals by law might be one way to help stop the possibilities of childhood obesity, which has been rising for decades and now affects about 1 in 5 US kids. The new study reviewed nationwide data(数据)from 50 groups of schoolchildren from January 2005 to August 2016, before the law took effect, and data from September 2016 to March 2020, after it was fully carried out. It found that a BMI for children fell by 0.041 units per year, compared with that of before the law took effect. That amounts to about a quarter of one BMI unit per year, Aruna Chandran, a professor from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said. At the same time, significant decreases in BMI measures were seen not only in kids aged 5 to 11, but also in those aged 12 to 18. “That’s a great change, ” Chandran said. “There are kid who potentially have their own right to buy their own snacks.” The new results come within days of the introduction of updated standards for school meals, including the first limits on added sugars, decreased sodium and increased flexibility for whole grains. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said the study shows that healthy school meals are “important for dealing with diet-related conditions like obesity.” 1．What’s the purpose of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010? A．To improve school meals. B．To record the change of BMI. C．To check medical conditions. D．To help end hunger. 2．How did the study learn about the effect of the program? A．By collecting stories. B．By presenting examples. C．By making a comparison. D．By giving reasons. 3．How did Chandran feel about the program? A．Uninterested. B．Satisfied C．Worried.

In space, where astronauts face extreme environmental and physical changes, the need for safe, nutritious and energy- laden food is particularly vital to overall health. Space food must provide enough energy to fuel astronauts on their demanding missions, according to NASA．In microgravity (low gravity state that makes astronauts appear to be weightless) environments, proper nutrition can fight against the resulting degradation of bones and muscles. For example, vitamins D, K and C aid in synthesizing (合成) calcium into bone. Meanwhile, dietary supplements like iron, omega-3 fatty acids and B12 can make up for dietary insufficiency. After decades of nutritional studies and food technology advancements, NASA has moved focus away from supplements and dietary formulas  (配方) toward providing as many nutrients from fruits and vegetables as possible. However, it can be difficult to rely heavily on fruits and vegetables as a space food source because they don’t contain many calories. This poses an issue for spaceflight, where cargo (货物) room is precious. NASA can’t merely consider health when designing space food, though. The nutritional value of a meal only goes so far if it doesn’t appeal to astronauts. Rather, Grace Douglas, the lead scientist for NASA’s Advanced Food Technology research group, and her colleagues aim to offer astronauts several meal. options to avoid menu fatigue (疲劳). Such variety also provides psychological health benefits.“ Food becomes more important with mission duration because it’s one of the only familiar things that they have, ” Douglas says. As space organizations look ahead to. long- duration missions, it will be key to craft a sustainable food source that doesn’t require resupply missions. To achieve this, NASA scientists are studying the best ways to grow crops in microgravity. On the International Space Station, astronauts have successfully grow n a variety of leafy greens and flowers in the Vegetable Production System, known as Veggie. Eating a fresh leafy green could help astronauts feel connected with the distant green planet they call home. 1．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．The importance of space food design. B．The challenges for astronauts in space. C．The general requirements for space food. D．The impact of microgravity on astronauts. 2．How do Douglas’s team enhance astronauts’ dining experience? A．They make food look appealing. B．They rearrange the menu schedule. C．They provide multiple food choices. D．They conduct taste tests on astronauts. 3．What can astronauts expect from Veggie? A．A supplement to the oxygen supply. B．Supply of psychological comfort C．Enhancement of the nutritional quality. D．An improvement in communication with Earth. 4．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．How do astronauts eat in space? B．What makes space food so special?

Maybe they can become little kitchen helpers as long as they can hold a spoon. When they can hold a carrot stick or pick up something small with their tiny fingers, it is the time for kids to learn to like vegetables. As they get older, kids can help to prepare one or more favorite meals each week. And finally, they may take a turn as the main chef (厨师). For some kids, it’s surprising to learn that soup doesn’t just come from a can and that pizza doesn’t always come in a box. In fact, pizzas don’t need to be fatty or oily — they can be a healthy way pack lots of vegetables into family menus. If kids don’t like homemade soups or cooked vegetables, they may become more “vegetable friendly” when they help with preparation. To start, they can wash carrots. When they are older and can use knives safely, they may help with cutting. You’ll find that they’ve eaten half the carrot long before you start cooking the soup. Besides, getting kids to help with cooking can make Mom or Dad free from feeling like a short-order(快餐) cook. For parents, your job is to make sure there are safe cooking plans to protect the kids from getting hurt. Find ways to help kids take part in cooking more actively. You can describe what they are doing, tell them where food comes from, raise questions to encourage them to talk more, etc. 1．What does the author say in the first paragraph?
