26、Processed foods—cheap, convenient, and beloved by many Americans—have once again been proven harmful to our health. Higher consumption of ultra-processed foods was associated with an increased risk of heart disease and death, according to a study carried out this week in the Journal American College of Cardiology.
Past research has also linked these preservative-laden (含防腐剂的) foods to weight gain, cancer, and early death. Many studies, including the recent cardiology paper, have proven the health risks are higher for people who eat a greater quantity of processed foods.
Each daily serving of ultra-processed food—such as a single protein bar or a 12 oz can of soda—was associated with a 7% increase in the risk of dying of cardiovascular disease and a 9% increase in the risk of dying due to heart disease, based on data from more than 3,000 adults followed for nearly 20 years.
Still, processed foods are “ubiquitous” in our diets, lead author Filipa Juul said in a press release. Although we know they’re bad for our health, ultra-processed foods account for more than half of the daily calories in the average American diet. Even seemingly healthy options like protein bars, breakfast cereals, and most industrially produced breads are filled with preservatives and added sugar, salt, and fat.
“As a poor diet is a major risk factor for heart disease, it represents a critical target in prevention efforts,” Juul, a researcher at the New York University School of Public Health, said in the press release. The authors recommended taxing (征税) processed foods with added sugar as a possible incentive (刺激) to reduce consumption.
More importantly, they acknowledged the need to make more nutritious choices available and affordable, especially for populations that have historically lacked that access. “Ultimately, the goal should be to make the unhealthy choice the hard choice and the healthy choice the easy choice,” Robert J. Ostfeld, MD, MSc, and Kathleen E. Allen, MS, RD, wrote in an editorial accompanying the study.
【1】How does the author illustrate the effect of ultra-processed food in paragraph 3?
A.By giving examples.
B.By listing figures.
C.By analyzing causes.
D.By making predictions.
【2】What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Unavoidable.
B.Priceless.
C.Complicated.
D.Luxurious.
【3】What does the last paragraph focus on?
A.Methods of reducing consumption.
B.Different factors for heart disease.
C.The accessibility of healthy food.
D.The necessity of resisting processed foods.
【4】What is the best title of the text?
A.Taxing Processed Foods Remains an Urgent Task
B.Mysteries of Heart Diseases Have Been Uncovered
C.Choosing Your Diet Carefully Makes a Great Difference
D.Eating Ultra-Processed Foods Increases Heart Disease Risk
27、Have you ever made contact with the creative spirit, that certain something hard to describe, but full of good—and sometimes great—ideas? It is more than an occasional great thought. When we feel the moving of the creative spirit, it brings to life a style of being: a lifetime filled with the desire to invent, to explore new ways of doing things, and to turn dreams into reality.
That flash of inspiration is the final moment of a process marked by unique stages—the basic steps in creative problem-solving. The first stage is preparation, when you look for any information that might be important. It's when you let your imagination run free.
But one barrier(障碍) is the inside voice of judgment that locks up our creative spirit within the limits of what we think acceptable. It's the voice that whispers to you, "They'll think I'm foolish," or "That will never work." But we can learn to recognize this voice of judgment and have the courage to discount its unhelpful advice.
Once you have thought about all the relevant(相关的) pieces and pushed your mind to the limits, you can let the problem remain and take in all you have gathered. It's a stage when much of what goes on occurs outside your focused awareness. As the saying goes, "You sleep on it."
We are more open to creative thoughts from the unknowing mind when we are not really thinking of anything. That is why daydreams are so useful in the search for creativity. Anytime you can just daydream and relax is useful in the creative process: a shower, long drives, a quiet walk, etc.
With luck, daydreaming will lead to a light turning on above your head, when all of a sudden the answer will come to you as if from nowhere. This is the popular stage—the one that usually gets all the glory and attention, the moment that people sweat and long for, the feeling "This is it!" But the thought alone is still not a creative act. The final stage is translation, when you take your creative thought and transform it into action; it becomes useful to you and others.
【1】In Paragraph 1, “the moving of the creative spirit” probably means ________.
A. preparation B. exploration
C. problem-solving D. inspiration
【2】According to the article, what keeps us from creativity?
A. Having less information to form a good idea.
B. Relying on others during the creative process.
C. Caring about other people’s opinions about us.
D. Thinking about too many ideas at the same time.
【3】What can we learn from the fifth paragraph?
A. The unknowing mind is very difficult for us to understand.
B. Creativity arrives when we aren’t focused on anything.
C. Daydreaming is useless and has nothing to do with creativity.
D. Showers, long drives and quiet walk are good for our bodies.
【4】When does creativity become useful to us and others?
A. When thought is turned into action.
B. When people understand our ideas.
C. When the popular stage is reached.
D. When we think “This is it!”.
【5】Which of the following would the author probably support?
A. The creative spirit means an occasional great thought.
B. Others’ voice of judgment allows us to ignore barriers.
C. Creative problem-solving calls for barrier-free imagination.
D. Daydreaming is sure to bring a sudden answer to a problem.
28、It’s a good idea for everyone to know first aid techniques. 【1】 because most outdoor activities take participants (参与者) away from populated (人口密集的) areas.
【2】 if you’re hiking or mountain biking away from populated areas. First is that an accident or a health event can happen anytime and, secondly, help may take a while to reach you. Depending on your location, the first aid skills of a friend or a nearby stranger may mean the difference between life and death. In most cases, a person trained in first aid care is unlikely to be around. 【3】 if we know some basic things about first aid.
A major health event can occur anytime at any place, so getting trained in first aid can ensure you’ll be able to help those in need. 【4】. When different types of conditions present themselves, treatment in the first 10 minutes can change that person’s chance of survival.
First aid knowledge could save your own life. It’s likely that an accident could occur in a situation where no one is trained to give first aid. Get trained, and you may be able to instruct others on how to properly treat you or apply first aid techniques yourself, depending on the situation. 【5】.
A.Chances of survival are increased
B.There are two things you must be aware of
C.You may be the only one in a group to have the knowledge
D.In either case, your chances of full recovery are greatly improved
E.By taking a special course, you’ll be able to respond immediately
F.There may also be some situations that require this type of training
G.But it may be even more important for those who live an active outdoor lifestyle
29、Drinking can make teens feel good, but that lasts only a short time. Alcohol clouds your brain and limits your ability to make decisions. Excessive drinking gradually makes your brain shrink and can cause serious damage. Over-drinking can cause learning disabilities and damage your memory. It distorts your vision and leads to blackouts. Teenagers often think that drinking will give you more energy, but alcohol isn’t an energy drink; it’s a depressant.
Drinking and driving is one of the top causes of death for teen boys. An alcohol-related motor vehicle crash kills one person every 33 minutes and injures someone every two minutes. The rate of teenagers driving drunk is so high that the government is trying to pass new laws restricting(限制) teen driving.
When we get to high school, friends start pressuring us to drink. High school students see alcohol a way to become popular. I created a survey at my school. Twenty-four of the 63 respondents predicted they would drink in high school. Eleven said maybe, and 28 said they don’t plan on drinking. Regardless of what they say now, things can change. Teens starting high school want to fit in.
Some people will do anything to be accepted, including potentially hurting themselves. They think that one drink won’t do anything. A little bit of alcohol probably won’t kill you, but it can lead to poor decisions. High school is the time to experiment with what you want to do in life, but if you’re experimenting with alcohol you could hurt someone, including yourself.
【1】The government is passing laws to restrict teen driving because _________.
A. Teens’ drunk driving cause deaths easily
B. Many teens like driving
C. Alcohol weakens the driving skills of teens
D. Most teens are poor in driving skills
【2】Some students in high school start drinking mainly because _________.
A. They think drinking is quite interesting
B. They want to fit in with the surroundings
C. They want to imitate adults around them
D. They don’t think high school an important period
【3】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Most teens in high schools like drinking
B. Teens who drink are mostly forced to do so
C. One little sip of alcohol ruins one’s memory
D. The start of drinking potentially damages one’s life
【4】We may infer from the passage that __________.
A. Drinking can make teens feel good for a long time.
B. Drinking is becoming very common in high schools.
C. Surrounding people and environment affects teens in drinking.
D. Drinking is bad to one’s brain but good to one’s body.
30、A friend of mine called me at 2 am. I usually worked through the_________, so I was awake. She was_________some problems and wanted to talk to me about them.
I was_________with work, under a lot of pressure._________my work, I also had a lot on my mind. But I_________to stop what I was doing, put it all_________and talked to her. It did the trick because we managed to find some kind of clarity to the_________after the conversation.
I felt happy. I know that sometimes what_________is not really what you talk about or whether you have found a(n)_________solution to the problem. What really counts is knowing that when you are going through a(n)__________time, you have a shoulder to lean on. Just knowing that somebody__________enough to give you time, support and__________, without any judgment, is enough to__________much of the weight that you are carrying.
I've ever been in situations where I've had to__________through things by myself, with no support at all. Living like this makes you very__________. But it also makes you cynical, and leaves you feeling like you can only depend on yourself.
I have had__________from people at times, totally__________when I have really needed it. And I realise what a(n)__________it can make, having someone to talk to.
I really hope that I was able to give my friend support. Even though we did not__________the problem, I hope that I was able to__________her of some of the weight that she was carrying.
