　　二、阅读理解

　　(2015·新课标全国卷Ⅱ)

　　Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.

　　Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self­conscious (难为情) when they're in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn't have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.

　　Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it's time to repaint, go blue.

　　Don't forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you're at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.

　　Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12­inch plate instead of a 10­inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.

　　语篇解读　这是一篇科普性说明文。最新研究表明，房屋的窗帘、灯光设计、墙壁颜色、餐具大小等都会影响食欲和食量，进而影响节食效果和身材。

　　1．The text is especially helpful for those who care about ________.

　　A. their home comforts

　　B. their body shape

　　C. house buying

　　D. healthy diets

　　答案与解析　B　考查推理判断。依据第一段中的“Your house may have an effect on your figure...whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off”，再结合该段最后一句“Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan”可知，B项正确。

　　2．A home environment in blue can help people ________.

　　A. digest food better

　　B. reduce food intake

　　C. burn more calories

　　D. regain their appetites

　　答案与解析　B　考查细节理解。依据第三段第三句“In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room”可知，在蓝色环境中人们的食量会减少33%，因此身处蓝色的环境中有助于减少食量。

　　3．What are people advised to do at mealtimes?

　　A. Eat quickly.

　　B. Play fast music.

　　C. Use smaller spoons.

　　D. Turn down the lights.

　　答案与解析　C　考查推理判断。依据第四段的内容可知，吃饭吃得快的话会吃得多，因此为了帮助减缓吃饭的速度，吃饭时可播放舒缓音乐，排除A、B项；D项与第二段首句的内容相矛盾；依据第五段的内容可知，使用小型的餐具有助于减少食物摄入量。故选C。

　　4．What can be a suitable title for the text?

　　A. Is Your House Making You Fat?

　　B. Ways of Serving Dinner

　　C. Effects of Self­Consciousness

　　D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?

　　答案与解析　A　考查标题判断。本文主要讲的是房屋的窗帘、灯光设计、墙壁颜色、餐具大小等方面均会影响食欲和食量，进而影响节食效果和身材，故A项“你的房屋在使你发胖吗？”作文章标题最佳。

　　三、完形填空

　　“This is the best part of my story, but all you could say was that I needed a __17__ here. I，I...”

　　答案与解析　语篇解读　作者通过讲述自己和学生Naomi之间的一件事来告诉我们，老师应该多给予学生一些肯定和鼓励。

　　1．D　Naomi的首篇故事由一些简单的(simple)句子组成，但经过这一学年的学习，她的写作(writing)技能开始提高。根据该空后半部分可知，开始时Naomi的写作简单。complex“复杂的”，good“好的”，vivid“生动的”，simple“简单的”，故选D项。

　　2．C　参见上题解析。

　　3．C　尽管学生的最后的大的写作任务是具有挑战性的(challenging)。该句是由though引导的让步状语从句，前后形成转折和对比，主句说她还是在周五早晨交上了作文。

　　4．B　“我”告诉她那天下午我们将仔细检查(go over)这篇作文以便于她能在周末定稿。refer to“涉及”；go over“仔细检查”；look up“查阅”；argue about“争论”。故选B项。

　　5．D　那天下午，当她大声地朗读她的故事时，“我”感到意外的是她的作品中流露出许多自己的个性。be thankful for“对……感到欣慰”，be ashamed of“对……感到惭愧”，be nervous about“担忧的”，be surprised at“对……感到意外”，故选D项。

　　6．C　此外(Additionally)，在“我”没有任何提醒的情况下，Naomi自己发现了一些拼写错误。undoubtedly“确实”；deliberately“故意”；additionally“此外”；fortunately“幸运地”。

　　7．B　在“我”没有任何提醒的情况下。report“报道”；reminder“提醒人的事物”；answer“答案”；explanation“解释”。

　　9．A　“Naomi，在这里(停一下)”，“我”打断她。interrupt“打断”，inform“通知，知会”，fear“害怕”，hesitate“犹豫”，故选A项。

　　10．B　你需要放一个句号在“Prayer”后而不是(instead of)逗号。more than“不只，多于”；instead of“而不是”；ahead of“在……前面”；less than“少于”。故选B项。

　　11．C　Naomi停了下来，盯着她的文章几秒钟。show off“炫耀”，throw away“扔掉”；stare at“盯着看”；look into“调查”。故选C项。

　　12．D　Naomi擦掉逗号，用一个句号替换。replace“用……替换”，符合语境，故选D项。
