　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　After moving to the United States，immigrant groups trying to fit in tend to choose high calorie fatty foods in an attempt to appear more American，a new study finds.That’s one reason why immigrants approach US levels of obesity within 15 years of moving to America.

　　The researchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un-American influenced respondents’food choices.After being questioned about their ability to speak English,75 percent of Asian-Americans identified a typical American food as their favorite.Only 25 percent of Asian-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same.

　　When their American identities were called into question during a follow-up study，Asian-American participants also tended to choose typical American dishes，such as hamburgers and cheese sandwiches.In the experiment,55 Asian-Americans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant.Some participants were told that only Americans could participate in the study.Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories，including 12 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat(饱和脂肪)．

　　“People who feel like they need to prove they belong to a culture will change their habits in an attempt to fit in，” said Sauna Cheryan，an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington.“If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over healthier traditional foods across their lives，this process of fitting in could lead to poorer health.” Cheryan added.

　　Social pressures，the study concluded，are at the heart of the problem.“In American society today，being American is associated with being white.Americans，who don’t fit this image even if they were born here and speak English，feel that pressure to prove that they’re Americans，” said Cheryan.

　　1．The author wants to show that ________.

　　A．more and more Asians enjoy high-calorie snacks

　　B．immigrants tend to eat American junk food to fit in

　　C．most Americans are at the risk of heart disease

　　D．all the American people have a bad eating habit

　　答案　B

　　解析　本文是一篇研究报道，第一段是文章的中心段，根据本段第一句中的内容可知作者意在表明移民倾向于食用高能量食物以便融入美国社会。

　　2．According to the survey，________.

　　A．Asian-Americans care less about their health

　　B．25 percent of Americans like junk food

　　C．choosing food is related to Asian-Americans’situation

　　D．immigrants are forced to eat junk food

　　答案　C

　　解析　从第二段的研究可知，75%的被询问过英语能力的亚裔美国人将一种典型的美国食物看做他们的最爱，而只有25%的没有被询问是否说英语的亚裔美国人这样做，由此可推断选择食物与亚裔美国人的处境有关。

　　3．The underlined word “fare” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “________”．

　　A．food offered as a meal

　　B．a person taking a taxi

　　C．money spent on food

　　D．an arranged thing to do

　　答案　A

　　解析　结合上文中的“In the experiment,55 Asian-Americans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant.”以及划线词后面的内容可推知划线词表示的是提供的食物。

　　4．According to Sauna Cheryan，________.

　　A．what immigrants have done is ridiculous

　　B．American traditional foods are healthier

　　C．immigrants risk their health in order to fit in

　　D．American culture affects immigrants deeply

　　答案　C

　　解析　根据倒数第二段后半部分中的内容可推断此人认为移民不惜以健康为代价去融入美国社会。

　　5．Which of the following should take the blame for the bad eating habit?

　　A．The situation of employment.

　　B．The traditional culture.

　　C．The American government.

　　D．The pressures from society.

　　答案　D

　　解析　根据最后一段第一句可知应该把不良的饮食习惯归咎于社会压力。

　　Ⅲ.微写作

　　写作素材

　　1．当今，在校园中，乱扔乱画现象比较普遍。

　　2．应该鼓励学生养成良好的习惯，更好地表现自己。

　　3．我相信在师生的共同努力下，我们学校在不久的将来会变成一个更加舒适的场所。

　　(素材来源于2011·浙江·书面表达)

　　提示：尽量使用高级表达：it作形式主语；be encouraged to do；宾语从句等。

　　连句成篇(将以上句子连成一篇50词左右的英语短文)

　　Nowadays it is common to litter and scribble in the school yard.Students should be encouraged to develop good habits and better behave themselves.I believe that，with the joint efforts of both teachers and students，our school will become a more enjoyable place in the near future.

　　1．relieve v．减轻　relief n．轻松；缓解　in relief如释重负　to one’s relief令某人放松的是　relieve sb.of...减轻某人的……；解除……

　　2．tend v．倾向；易于　tendency n．倾向　tend to do...倾向于做……；易于……　tend (to) sb./sth.照顾；服侍　have an tendency to do...有做……的倾向

　　3．lead to导致(同义短语：contribute to，result in，make for，give rise to，bring on/about等) 　lead sb.to do...使某人做……　lead a．..life过着……的生活

　　4．lay off解雇　lay out展开　lay aside储存；搁置　lay down放下

　　5．Only 25 percent of Asian-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same.

　　句子的主干是Only_25_percent_of_Asian-Americans_did_the_same.。who had not been asked if they spoke English为定语从句修饰Asian-Americans，if引导宾语从句。

　　利用语法知识解答完形填空题

　　在完形填空中对语法的考查主要集中在定语从句(连接词、限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句的区别、定语从句与其他主从复合句的区别)、状语从句、名词性从句、非谓语动词、时态和语态、特殊句型(省略句、倒装句、强调句等)以及一些固定搭配知识等语法项目上。如本节完形填空中的第19空I often see many __18_(negative)__ people and hope to relieve their __19__ and make them think positively by sharing music.，此题考查固定搭配relieve one’s pain, pain和relieve搭配使用。在完形填空中考查语法主要体现在对复合句中的从属连词的判定，尤其是复杂句中的多种从句类型交错使用，致使考生在阅读时不知所云，无从下手。如本节完形填空中的第2空：That’s__2__ I heard piano music and singing rising above the__3_(noise) of the people and the traffic.句意为：散步时，我听到了琴声和歌声。表示时间概念，与时间无关，不是之前也不是之后，表示正在发生，故用when。因此，对于这一类难点，考生首先要分析长难句，理清句子结构和句意。其次，考生应结合语境来猜测或推断设空处所需词的要求或条件。最后，考生应仔细辨析各个选项之间的细微差异，辨别真伪，这样才能得出正确答案。
