A. street B. cornerC. side D. road解析：选B。on the corner“在角落，在转角处”。下文的“he ran over with enthusiasm”(他赶紧跑过来)说明他当时不在马路上(street)或路边(side)。上文“One day we saw a homeless person in the street” 部分暗示应排除road。15. A. under

21、 your health，and obesity is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world. Sleep might be one answer to the problem. A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds. In the United States today, some 9 million children over the
22、age of 6 are obese(too fat). Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more，but scientists have had a tough time determining“Which came first，the chicken or the egg？” says Julie C. Lumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In other words，it hasnt been clear whether k
23、ids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping, or whether sleeping less leads to weight gain. Both scenarios(情况)seemed equally possible. To get a better idea of which causes which, Lumeng and his colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answer
24、ed questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions. By sixth grade,18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese. The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students race or gender. It also didnt matter how strict
25、 their parents were. Obesity struck all of these groups equally. Instead，sleep seemed to be the key factor. Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9. 5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, however，slept a lot moreor lessthan others. For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep ab
26、ove the 9. 5hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity by third grade. “I expected wed find that this(sleep link with obesity) was just a_bunch
27、_of_bunk，”says Lumeng，a pediatrician. But their findings were convincing. No matter how her team looked at the link，“we couldnt make it go away. ”1. According to the research， _. A. 9 million people in America have a weight problemB. not enough sleep contributes to a gain in weightC. sixth graders n
28、eed more sleep than third gradersD. lack of sleep has become the most deadly killer解析：选B。考查细节理解。本文阐述了睡眠与青少年肥胖之间的关系。第二段说，一项新研究发现，睡眠太少的小学生更容易发胖，美国有900万6岁以上的孩子患肥胖症。从文章的叙述判断选B。2. The statement “Which came first，the chicken or the egg？” suggests that _. A. scientists are sure about the causes of children
29、s obesityB. its easy to decide the cause and effect of this problemC. scientists are still confused about the cause and effect of the problemD. youll develop obesity if you eat chicken and eggs解析：选C。考查推理判断。第三段画线句子后面又说“换句话说，究竟是发胖的孩子有睡眠问题，还是睡眠减少导致了体重的增加，这还不清楚。”也就是说，发胖与睡眠减少这两者哪个是原因，哪个是结果，科学家们也还不知道。3. R
30、ecent studies show that a childs weight is influenced by the _. A. amount of sleep B. parents attitude to himC. race or gender D. performance in school解析：选A。考查推理判断。第三段说，以往的研究表明睡眠不足与发胖有联系，但科学家不知道哪个是原因，哪个是结果；第五段开头提到研究的结论：睡眠似乎是主要因素。也就是说该研究表明，孩子的体重受睡眠时间长短的影响。4. The underlined part in the last paragraph
31、most probably means something _. A. acceptableB. understandableC. reliable D. unreasonable解析：选D。考查词义猜测。后文说“但他们的研究结论却很有说服力。”由此可推知，画线部分的含义应该是D；他们本来希望这种说法是错误的，可是研究结论却让人不得不相信睡眠和肥胖有关。B(2010年黄冈中学期中测试)Doomed beauties such as Cleopata and Manilyn Monroe were far from alone in their misery.

Many beautiful women didnt end up with a happy life. D. Beautiful women always lived a happy life. 解析：选C。考查推理判断。第一段说漂亮的人，其partnership 往往不如
38、普通人的稳定和让人满意，由此判断，文章开头说“克莱奥帕特拉和玛丽莲梦露等美女的悲惨命运绝非个例”意在表明“很多美女的生活都不幸福”。6. The underlined phrase “plain Janes” in the passage refers to“ _”. A. ordinarylooking women B. women called JaneC. common people D. attractive women解析：选A。考查词义猜测题。从语境看，画线部分的plain Janes 指与前面提到的美女相对的、相貌平常的女性，因此选A。7. We can infer from t

Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were very satisfied with their lifeC. when they fail in Hollywood, the beautiful have little trouble in making a livingD. the marriage of the beautiful often lasts long解析：选A。考查推理判断。最后一段说，外界看上去很完美的关系，比如

Beauties are doomed to fail in loveC. Beautiful or common?D. The beauties are different解析：选B。考查主旨大意。文章主要论述了美女命运多舛的观点，并分析了其中的原因，故B项最适合为本文标题。
