41、sorder statistics continue to increase due to the push for thinner people. While obesity is a serious medical condition that can lead to many health problems, many of us try to lose weight for appearance purposes. Children as young as elementary school age have begun to worry about the numbers that

42、appear on the scale. In my opinion, it seems that “fat” has become the new“ugly”.Two weeks ago, 37-year-old Wisconsin television reporter Livingston, who is 235 pounds, received an email from a man named Krause.

43、ny years. Surely you dont consider yourself a suitable example for this communitys young people, girls in particular.”Today, it seems that a vast majority of people care more about how they look and appear to their peers rather than what is inside. The truth is that every person is built differently

44、; we all come in different shapes and sizes. Just because someone is heavier, that doesnt mean they eat large amounts of junk food around the day. Likewise, even though a person is thin, that doesnt mean they are necessarily healthy and fit.If you are reading this and you struggle with your weight o

45、r your appearance, please recognize that you are beautiful and special in your own way.

49、 and supports you【考点】考察社会生活类短文【文章大意】本文叙述现在很多人把肥胖等同于丑陋,这是一种错误的观点。美丽不是由体重身高决定的,而是由我们对待他们和尊敬他人决定的。25. 【答案】D 【试题解析】细节题。根据第二段1,2行As our country is trying to reduce the obesity numbers, eating disorder statistics continue to increase due to the push for thinner people可知因为我们国家正在努力减少肥胖人的数量,由于人们追求更瘦饮食错乱的数据一直

50、都在增加。也就是说更多的人会患上饮食错乱病。故D正确。26. 【答案】B 【试题解析】推理题。根据前面一句While obesity is a serious medical condition that can lead to many health problems, many of us try to lose weight for appearance purposes.尽管肥胖是一个严重的医学问题,能够导致很多健康问题,为了让自己更漂亮,很多人都努力减肥。本句是指甚至连小学生也开始担忧自己的体重问题。所以下划线的句子表示的是B项含义。27. 【答案】A 【试题解析】推理题。在第二段最

51、后一句In my opinion, it seems that “fat” has become the new“ugly”作者提出了现在社会上把肥胖等同于丑陋。接着在第三段里列举了Livingston收到别人的邮件指责她太胖影响了别人。这个例子正是说明有人把肥胖等同于丑陋。故A正确。28. 【答案】C 【试题解析】推理题。根据文章最后2句Beauty is not defined by size; it is defined by how we treat others and respect ourselves. In the words of the talented film actr

52、ess Kirstie Alley, “Theres a lot more to life than how fat or thin you are.”可知Kirstie Alley认为:在生活里有更多比你有多胖或者多瘦的东西。相当于前面一句:美丽不是由体重身高决定的,而是由我们对待他们和尊敬他人决定的。故C项说法是正确的。【长难句解析】1. In the email Krause attacked her, writing,“Your physical condition hasnt improved for many years.【翻译】在这封邮件里,Krause共计了她,写道:在过去的很

53、多年里,你的体型都没有改善。【分析】本句中含有一个分词做状语用法,因为动词write与句子主语Krause构成逻辑上的主动关系,所以使用现在分词做状语。2.As our country is trying to reduce the obesity numbers, eating disorder statistics continue to increase due to the push for thinner people.【翻译】因为我们国家正在努力减少肥胖人的数量,由于人们都追求成为更瘦的人,饮食错乱的数据就会不断增加了。【分析】本句是一个主从复合句。主句的主语是eating dis

It scolded me for not being interested, for not trying hard enough, for disappointing my grandmother.The book started to fit in, almost forgotten, until Adele asked. Had I read it? Did I like it? Always determined, sh

Years passed and finally Adele and I both accepted that I would never read Hans Brinker. Eventually I cleared the book from the shelf. The Hans Brinker exper

59、ience led me to set a rule that Ive lived by ever since: Do not ask about a book given as a gift. Dont ask, despite your desire to discuss it to grow closer. The desire for such connection is what gives book-giving with special meaningand increases the owners possibility to be a letdown. Guilt is ba

60、sically the same as for all gifts, though. If the giver doesnt have the pleasure of seeing or hearing about the gift being enjoyed, and asks whether it is, then the ownerunless she can truthfully say “yes”either has to admit to not liking the present, or else lie on the spot. Neither is pleasant. So
