　　贵阳市2014高考英语（新人教版）一轮阅读训练（21）附答案

　　课时作业(二十一)　[必修5　Unit 1 Great scientists](限时：35分钟)阅读理解(分散注意) can mask the clues that we really have eaten quite enough. Moreover, it finds, the caloric paying attention to what we're eating doesn't necessarily end when a meal is over.

　　Rose Cooper from England, and her colleagues gathered 22 men and an equal number of women for an experiment. Each person dined alone, continuously receiving nine small shares of food items. These ranged from cheese twists and potato chips to carrots, cherry tomatoes and sandwiches or sausage rolls.

　　Because the goal was to test the potential impacts of distraction on fullness, the researchers randomly assigned half of the participants to eat in front of a computer—and to gain as many wins as possible at the “card” game. Everyone else was told to focus on the sensory qualities of their meal.

　　According to their instructions, the participants ate all of the food given to them. Yet people who played a computer game during lunch found their meal less filling than the mindful eaters had. Game players also swallow down twice as many cookies, almost an hour later, when they were allowed all the dessert they wanted( in the name of a taste test)．The British scientists present their findings in the February edition of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

　　The real question is why distracted eating should impact snacking.It appears, the scientists say, that memory plays some tricky role in how we register what we eat and the degree to which it satisfies.

　　Interestingly, eight years ago, Britta Barkeling of Huddinge University in Stockholm and her colleagues reported somewhat related findings.Their 18 overweight subjects had no choice other than to get rid of everything but lunch, on one day—because they were blindfolded. Compared to a day when they could view what they were dining on, these people consumed only three quarters as many calories. Yet even hours afterward, they reported being no less full than on the day they had been able to see their plates.

　　Of course dining in the dark isn't practical. And sometimes what we eat doesn't really invite our absolute attention. But there is certainly a growing mountain of data indicating that mindless eating is a waste of resources, a risk to our waistlines—and a costly threat to health.

　　36．Rose Cooper and her colleagues did the experiment in order to ________．

　　A．show that all the people enjoy snacks

　　B．prove that playing computer games is harmful while dining

　　C．find possible effects of distraction on fullness

　　D．test the impacts of eating snacks on different people

　　37．Which is the most effective way to concentrate on your food when dining?

　　A．Viewing your food.

　　B．Blindfolding your eyes.

　　C．Playing computer games.

　　D．Eating by oneself.

　　38．The reason why distracted eating influences snacking may be that ________．

　　A．you eat less in that case

　　B．you are cheated by your memory

　　C．you have consumed more calories

　　D．you digest what you've eaten faster

　　39．We can conclude from the passage that ________．

　　A．distracted eating may damage your health

　　B．eating snacks will make you feel full

　　C．Britta became famous because of the experiment

　　D．playing is more important than what we eat

　　阅读理解

　　Where we live，on the eastern shore of Maryland，the gentle waters run in and out like fingers slimming at the tips.

　　The Canada geese know this place，as do the white swans and the ducks.In autumn，they come home for the winter.Once or twice each year，snow and frozen rain move into the area.When this happens，if the river is at its narrowest，there is a freeze which hardens the water to ice.

　　One morning，a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside the huge window，which overlooked the Tred Avon River.Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out，“There is a goose out there.”

　　We saw the figure of a large Canada goose，very still，its wings folded tight to its sides，its feet frozen into the ice.

　　Then from the dark skies，she saw a line of swans.They floated from the top of the sky downward and at last landed on the ice.My friend was on her feet now，with one hand against her mouth，unbelieving.As the swans surrounded the frozen goose，she feared that life it still had might be pecked(啄) out by those great swan bills.

　　Instead，those bills began to work on the ice.The long necks were lifted and curved down，again and again.It went on for a long time.At last，the goose’s head was lifted.Its body was pulled.Then the goose was free and stood on the ice.And the swans stood in the air watching.Then，as if it had cried，“I cannot fly.”Four of the swans came down around it.Their powerful beaks chipped off the ice held in the feathers.Slowly，the goose spread its wings as far as they would go，and moved slowly into the sky.

　　This is a true story.I just think of it in the bad moment，and from it comes only one hopeful question：If so for birds，why not for man？
