必修1　UNIT 4　课时作业(一)　主题阅读集群训练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2025·襄阳模拟)I used to be anorexic (厌食的)．I was skeletal, each of my rib bones jutted out, like ridges on my body; my head, which looked abnormally huge, was barely supported by my backbone. It would take an hour for me to eat a spoon of food.Should I attempt to eat to please my parents or teachers, I would lock myself in the toilet and throw up the food.I looked pale and weak all the time because of the lack of food.My family members were distressed.They cried a lot. It all started when a boy in my class called me “fat”， I was shocked and upset.I adopted an extremely strict diet and exercise routine.I lost 10kg within three months and continued to lose more weight.I was absolutely obsessed about losing even more weight.One day, my heart rate dropped and I was breathless.I almost lost my life.That was when I decided to turn my life around. Looking good is extremely important to a teenager.We want to look a certain way so we can be popular and accepted.We are attracted by well­toned and sculpted bodies.Now, with social media, we have access to a pool of photographs of people, whose bodies and appearances we admire.Those images make us envious.We long to be like them. We're in danger when we start to hate the way we look and take drastic measures to attain the body we dream of having.These measures can lead to eating disorders, unrealistic and unhealthy exercise habits, low self­esteem and depression.Besides affecting the physical health, teenagers who are body conscious can also suffer from mental instability.They may fall into despair, guilt and hopelessness if they are unable to keep up with their rigid exercise routines or eating habits.They can be emotionally fragile too.They become sensitive to comments made by others.They are ashamed of the way they look.If you are currently experiencing these feelings, seek help before it is too late. It is important to feel confident and positive about your image and not subscribe to man­made standards of beauty, which will change with time.You are unique. 1．What can we infer about the author from the first two paragraphs?

One of the most significant findings from this report is that “a calorie is a calorie, but the response of your body to that calorie is different in the morning versus in the evening，” said Frank A．J.L.Scheer, the senior author and a scientist at Harvard Medical School. That finding matches past research showing that the glycemic index (升糖指数) of a food — how it affects the body's blood sugar following a meal — varies depending on the time of day that food is consumed, said Nina Vujovic, who led this study.In the study, Vujovic found that eating within four hours of bedtime affects two hormones (激素) related to hunger. On days participants ate closer to sleep, they also burned fewer calories and showed molecular changes in fat tissue suggesting their body converted calories into fat storage more easily. What surprised Scheer most was that eating closer to bedtime affected all the factors they measured rather than just one or two of them.“In the nutrition field, I think the longest resistance against the idea that timing of food matters is based on this simplistic view of‘a calorie is a calorie，’ meaning that it shouldn't matter when someone eats it，” Scheer said, “yet it does.” But the authors also acknowledged that their study was not designed to determine whether eating dinner closer to bedtime long­term would lead to weight gain over time or whether the body might instead adapt to such a schedule. 5．What did the researchers do in the study? A．They asked the participants to sleep more. B．They recorded the participants' daily routines. C．They gave the participants calorie­controlled diet. D．They encouraged the participants to work out regularly. 6．What is a new discovery in the study? A．Late supper is connected to weight gain. B．Nutritious food contains more calories. C．Different foods have different glycemic indexes. D．Late­night eating affects hormones about hunger. 7．What does the underlined word “converted” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Transformed. 　B．Buried. C．Absorbed. 　D．Broke. 8．Which statement might Scheer agree with? A．The study aims to warn people. B．The time people eat food matters. C．Eating late is the key factor to overweight. D．Our body is designed to adapt to various foods. Ⅱ.阅读七选五精品课件·名师析题 (2025·鄂东南省级示范学校联考)No woman can be too rich or too thin.This saying from the late Dutchess (公爵夫人) of Windsor reflects much of the odd spirit of our times.Being thin is recognized as such a virtue.The problem with this view is that some people actually attempt to live by it. __9__ Consequently, I have been on a diet for the better­or­worse­part of my life. __10__ And when did eating butter become a sin (原罪)? Excessive eating is truly bad for our health.However, until quite recently, most people had a problem getting enough to eat.In some social groups, wealth was a blessing and a symbol of high morals, and fatness a sign of wealth and well­being. __11__ We have shifted to thinness as our new mark of virtue.The result is that being fat, or somewhat overweight, is bad because it implies a lack of moral strength. __12__ It is true that we have more overweight people than before, and that being overweight correlates with an increased risk of heart and blood diseases.These diseases, however, may have as much to do with our way of life and our high­fat diets as with extra weight.And the risk of cancer in the digestive system may be more of a dietary problem — too much fat and a lack of fibre — than a weight problem. The real concern, then, is not that we weigh too much, but that we neither exercise enough nor eat well.Exercise is necessary for strong bones and overall health.A balanced diet can also help the body avoid diseases.Simply being thin is not enough.It is actually dangerous if those thin people think they are automatically healthy and thus free from caring about their lifestyle.__13__ A．Today the opposite is true. B．Thinness makes a big difference. C．Then where did we go off the track? D．It is time to change their (and our) concept of thinness. E．There is much to do when we realize we've gone too far. F．Our addiction to thinness is also fueled by health concerns. G．I myself have fantasies of slipping into narrow designer clothes. 4 / 4 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
