【阅读练习】



What is it about Americans and food? We love to eat
,but we feel 1 about it afterward. We say we want o
nly the best, but we strangely enjoy junkfood.
We’
re 2 with health and weight loss but face an unprec
edented epidemic of obesity(


). Perhaps the 3 to this ambivalence(
矛盾情

) lies in our history. The first Europeans cameto
this continent searching for new spices but went i
n vain. The first cash crop(
经济作
物)wasn’t
eaten but smoked. Then there was Prohibi
tion, intended to prohibit drinking butactually enc
ouraging more 4 ways of doing it.


The immigrant experience, too, has been one of inha
rmony. Do as Romans do meanseating what
“real
Amer
icans”
eat, but our
nation’s
food has come to be
5 by imports

pizza,say, or hot dogs. And some of t
.
.
he
country’s
most treasured cooking comes from peo
ple whoarrived here in shackles.


Perhaps it should come as no surprise then that foo
d has been a medium for the
nation’sdefining
strug
gles, whether at the Boston Tea Party or the sit?in
s at southern lunch is integral to our
concepts of health and even morality whether one re
frains from alcohol forreligious reasons or evades
meat for political 6


But strong opinions have not brought 7 . Americans
are ambivalent about what they putin their mouths.
We have become 8 of our foods, especially as we lea
rn more about what theycontain.


The 9 in food is still prosperous in the American c
onsciousness.
It’s
no coincidence, then,that the f
irst Thanksgiving holds the American imagination in
such bondage(


).
It’s
whatwe eat

and how we 10 it with friend
.
.
s, family, and strangers

that help define America
as acommunity today.


A. answer I. creative


B. result J. belief


C. share K. suspicious


D. guilty L. certainty


E. constant M. obsessed


F. defined N. identify


G. vanish O. ideals


H. adapted


【答案及详解】



1. D feel
是一个系动词,可以判断此处应填入一个形
容词,通过上下文意思,以及后面介词
about,
可以确定选
项为
D

guilty,
短语
feel guilty about
sth. “对……
感到有愧” 。全句的意思为“我们很爱吃,但是往往在吃完
之后又有负罪感”。



2.M be obsessed with
为固定搭配,原意为“被……
附上/
缠住
/
迷住心窍”,放在本句表示“十分重视”。全句
的意思为“我们 很关心健康和减肥,但肥胖却又空前地在蔓
延”。



3. A
本句缺一个名词作主语,并且根据和介词
to
的搭
配,可以推断出正确选项< br>answer.
.
.


4. I
本句根据< br>more

ways
可以判断出需要填入一个形
容词构成比较级,根据 上下文,表示“旨在禁止酗酒的禁酒
令,却激发了更多新奇的方法来酗酒”,可以

确定
I
为正
确选项。



5. F
本题较难。根据
be

by
确定应填入一个过去分
词。 再根据上下文,上文表示“应该吃典型的美国人吃的食
物”,下文通过
but
转折 ,表示实际上“美国的食物已经
被诸如比萨和热狗这样的舶来品所诠释了”,因此可以确定
F< br>为正确选项。



6.B
政治结果,可根据宗教原因
religious reasons

推断此处填政治结果。



7. L< br>由于横线后面没有宾语,可以确定不是形成
bring
的短语,这样本句所缺的为一名词 ,做
bring
的宾语。根据
下文解释,“美国人对他们所吃的食物的态
< br>度是矛盾的”,
可以推出本句意义为“坚定的观点也不是确定不变的”。因
此可以确定< br>L
为正确选项。



8. K
系动词
be come
后应填入一个形容词,和后面介词
of
形成短语
be/become suspicious o
f“对……感到怀
疑”。

答案:
DCBAB


贝克尔和哈特曼报道说,“睡眠少的人”在未进入少年
期之前,其正常睡眠时间大致 与所需要的时间差不多。但到

15
岁左右,由于学校、工作或其它

活动的地压力,他们
就故意地减少了夜间睡眠的时间。这些人持有这样的观点:
夜间睡眠是一 件令人讨厌的事情,打断了日常事务。



总的说来,这些“睡眠少的人” 表现得雄心勃勃、积极
活跃、精力充沛、无意识乐观豁达、立场坚定,对自己职业
的选择胸有成 竹。他们往往同时从事几

项工作,或者一边
上学读书,一边从事专职或兼职工作。其 中许多人有强烈愿
望,想在朋友和熟人面前表现得“正常”或“合群”。



当让他们回忆梦境时,“睡眠少的人”回忆不起什么
来。更有甚者,他们似乎情愿什么都记不住 。类似的情况是
他们通常处理心理问题的方式:不承认问

题的存在,希望
只要忙忙碌碌,麻烦总会过去的。

.
.


“睡眠少的人”的睡眠模式与被划入疯子之类精神病
患者的睡眠模式十分 相似,只不过没有那么严重而已。



“睡眠多的人”情形则大不相同。贝 克尔和哈特曼报道
说,这些年轻人从小的,有抱负的睡眠就一直很长。他们好
像注重睡眠,不让 睡眠受打搅。偶尔没

有所需的
9
个小时
夜间卧床休息,他们便会十 分不安。他们比“睡眠少的人”
要更能回忆得起梦的内容。
许多“睡眠多的人”腼腆、
焦躁、
内向、压抑、消极和稍微

有点儿沮丧,尤其在社交场合缺
乏自信。好 几个人坦言,睡眠是摆脱每天烦恼的一种方式。

Upon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 1
8and 21 years), children are encouraged, but not fo
rced, to
“leave
the
nest”
and begin anindependent
life. After children leave home they often find so
cial relationship and financialsupport outside the
family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their
.
.
children, nor do childrenusually ask permission of
their parents to get married, Romantic love is most
often the basisfor marriage in the United States;

ions and religious institutions, Although children
