　　Eating too much fat contributes to the risk of stroke （中風） and other heart diseases. However， it’s the type of fat， not the amount， that appears to be more important when it comes to stroke. Eating plant-based fats lowers stroke risk， according to a study presentation given at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions.
　　The study， which hasn’t yet been proved by other researchers， found people who ate the most vegetable-based fats were 12% less likely to experience a stroke compared to those who ate the least. On the other hand， people who ate the highest levels of animal-based saturated （飽和的） fats were 16% more likely to experience a stroke than those who ate the least fats of that kind. The findings show the type and different food sources of fat are more important than the total amount of fat in preventing certain diseases， including stroke.
　　“You need fat to survive. Fat helps your body absorb vitamins from foods， build cells， give you energy and keep you warm. But it’s the unsaturated fats that come from vegetables， nuts and fatty fish that can lower your cholesterol （膽固醇） level and help keep you healthy. Saturated fats are generally not as healthy， which mainly come from red and processed meat，” said Dr Frank Hu， one of the authors of the study.
　　A proper reduction in red and processed meat consumption with a healthy eating pattern can reduce total death rate by 13%， heart disease death by 14%， cancer death by 11% and Type 2 Diabetes risk by 24%， according to the study.
　　Interestingly， dairy fat was not associated with a higher risk of stroke， the study found. There has been an ongoing debate among researchers as to the role of dairy. The diet guidelines for Americans call for three servings of low-and no-fat dairy each day.
1.How does Paragraph 2 mainly develop？（　　）
A.By making comparisons.
B.By analyzing causes and effects.
C.By providing examples.
D.By following the order of time.
2.Which kind of food doesn’t have unsaturated fats according to Paragraph 3？（　　）
A.Corn. B.Beans.
C.Nuts. D.Beef.
3.What is the main idea of the passage？（　　）
A.The type of fat matters when it comes to stroke.
B.People should eat less red meat to keep healthy.
C.Fat plays an important role in people’s lives.
D.Americans need three servings of dairy per day.

　　A famous health tip says you’d better drink eight glasses of water （about two liters） a day.However， the results of a new study suggest that fewer are needed. An international group led by scientists at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology in China found that the average daily water intake of a man in his 20s should be 1.5 to 1.8 liters， while it should be 1.3 to 1.4 liters for a female in the same age group. The study published recently in the journal Science described， for the first time， a set of equations （方程組） to predict human water turnover， a sign reflecting the amount of water used by the body each day.
　　The researchers investigated 5，604 participants from the ages of 8 days to 96 years from more than 20 countries， using isotope（同位素）-tracking methods. They have found that a man aged 20 to 35 consumes 4.2 liters of water each day， while a woman aged 30 to 60 consumes 3.3 liters， with the water requirements dropping as he or she ages.
　　Since the metabolism（新陳代謝）and water exchange on skin can provide 15 per cent， while food and drinking respectively contributing half of the remaining 85 per cent， people are encouraged to drink less than 45 per cent of the total daily turnover， according to the researchers. “The majority of people perhaps don’t have to drink eight glasses of water a day，” says Zhang Xueying， co-first author of the paper and an assistant research fellow at the SIAT.
　　The total water input and output change according to a number of factors， including body size， physical activity， air temperature and altitude （海拔）， according to the study. “The equations can be applied to individuals around the world，” says Zhang. However， people living in countries with a low human development index （指數） have higher water turnover than people in developed countries， she adds.
　　The study challenges the long-standing belief and marks the first step towards a personalized prediction of water requirements， says John Speakman， who also works at the SIAT.
5.How did the researchers carry out the study？（　　）
A.By offering examples.
B.By analyzing figures.
C.By performing interviews.
D.By making predictions.
6.Why do most people drink less than eight glasses of water per day？（　　）
A.Their daily diets are rich in protein.
B.Their bodies don’t need so much water.
C.They belong to different age groups.
D.They take in water from various sources.
7.What can we learn from Paragraph 4？（　　）
A.Living conditions influence human water turnover.
B.The equations are used to determine water turnover.
C.Body size is unlikely to change the output of water.
D.Temperature has nothing to do with the input of water.
8.What does John Speakman think of the study？（　　）
A.It has a long way to go.
B.It remains a riddle.
C.It wins public support.
D.It is beyond control.

America has become the land of fast-food and processed food.Americans are putting on weight.Obesity （肥胖） is everywhere.It is much greater than it was thirty years ago.
Experts say that in ten years， almost half of all American adults will be obese.About one in four will be very obese.The weight gain will be highest among women， black adults， and low-income adults.
What can government do to keep this from taking place？Can laws and rules make a difference in people’s diets？Experts point at the discussion over how to control sugar-sweetened soda.The first problem is soft drinks.It spends millions to market its products and stops most efforts to tax （征稅） their products.They say that lower-income people will use their little money to buy soda.Taxes could hurt the same people it was to help.
Experts say not drinking soda would mean big savings in health care costs.A soda tax set by Philadelphia caused a fall in the sale of soda.Savings in health care costs would be much bigger than the cost of a tax.
Is food now a way to feel better， not just to meet the need to eat？An expert said， “Obesity will be the new normal in this country.” The worst problem is drinking calories.It does not make people feel full， so they are likely to eat more.
Some suggest that restaurants do something.Observers note that portion sizes （分量） are too big.An expert said， “Menus could make healthier， lower-calorie meals the first choice.”
Experts say that everyone and every level of government have to play a role.
9.Which group may gain lower weight according to experts？（　　）
A.Children. B.Black adults.
C.Low-income adults. D.Women.
10.What are food experts arguing about？（　　）
A.The aim of taxing soda drinks.
B.The way to control sweet soda.
C.The rules to regulate food safety.
D.The meaning of controlling sugar-sweetened soda.
11.How can restaurants contribute to dealing with the weight problem？（　　）
A.By lowering price.
B.By increasing plate sizes.
C.By providing healthy food choices.
D.By increasing food diversity.
12.What is the best title for the text？（　　）
A.Obesity Does Great Harm to People’s Health
B.America Is Becoming a Heavy-weight Country
C.Restaurants Should Play Their Part to Reduce Weight
D.Experts Are Actively Arguing About Weight Problem

How to Make Chinese Pancakes
　　Chinese pancakes， also known as “spring pancakes”， can be used in many different ways in Chinese cooking. You can use these pancakes to wrap moo shu pork， Peking duck or any other meat or vegetables you like. 13.（　　）
　　To make Chinese pancakes， first you should gather the ingredients （原料）. You need 2 cups of flour， 1 cup of boiling water and 2 teaspoons of cooking oil.
　　Then， in a large bowl， combine the flour and boiling water， starting with 3/4 cup of water. Begin stirring （攪拌） it immediately， adding a little more water at a time until a shaggy dough （表面粗糙的面團） forms. 14.（　　） If the dough sticks to your hands， add some flour. Then leave the dough in the bowl for 20 minutes.
　　15.（　　） Cut the dough in half to form 2 balls. Use a lightly floured rolling pin （搟面杖） to roll each half out until it is 1/4-inch thick. Afterwards， use a cookie cutter to cut out 3-inch circles of dough. Brush 1/4 teaspoon of oil over the top of 2 dough circles. Lay one pancake on top of the other， so that the oiled sides are together.
　　Roll out the pancakes together to form a 6-inch circle.16.（　　） By the way， don’t forget to cover the prepared pancakes with a slightly wet towel， which can keep them from drying out while you are preparing the remaining dough.
　　Finally， heat a frying pan over a medium heat. Add one of the pancake pairs and cook until browned on both sides. 17.（　　） Remove the paired pancakes from the pan and pull them apart while they are still hot. Cover the pancakes to keep them warm. Continue with the remainder of the pancakes. Serve immediately.
A.Continue with the rest of the dough.
B.These pancakes can be made ahead and frozen.
C.Here is a simplified method of making these pancakes.
D.The second side will cook more quickly than the first side.
E.By the way， they are perfect for wrapping up Peking duck.
F.Next， take the rested dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
G.Work the warm dough for about 6 minutes until you have a smooth dough.

Ⅰ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。一項研究發現，攝入脂肪的種類，而不是數量，對于罹患中風有重要的影響。
1.A　推理判斷題。根據第二段前兩句可推知，第二段通過作比較來展開。
2.D　細節理解題。根據第三段中的But it’s the unsaturated fats ... keep you healthy.可知，植物、堅果和富含脂肪的魚類中有不飽和脂肪，牛肉不屬于這一范圍。
3.A　主旨大意題。根據全文內容可知，文章主要介紹了一項研究發現：攝入脂肪的種類，而不是數量，對于罹患中風有重要的影響，即攝入脂肪的種類對罹患中風的概率高低有影響。
4.C　文章出處題。本文為健康類科普文，可能選自報紙的健康版。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。研究結果表明，人體每天所需要的水實際少于八杯水（大約兩升），向長期以來的信念——每天喝八杯水發出挑戰。
5.B　推理判斷題。根據第二段內容可知，研究人員通過分析數據來進行研究。
6.D　推理判斷題。根據第三段第一句可知，大多數人每天喝的水少于八杯，因為他們從各種來源攝入水。
7.A　細節理解題。根據第四段最后一句可知，生活條件影響人類的水資源周轉率。
8.A　推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的marks the first step towards a personalized prediction of water requirements可知，這項研究僅僅邁出了個性化預測需水量的第一步，故John Speakman認為這項研究還有很長的路要走。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了在美國由于快餐而導致肥胖的人群正在大幅增加，作者建議每個人和各級政府都要努力改善這種現象。
9.A　細節理解題。根據第二段中的The weight gain will be highest among women， black adults， and low-income adults.可知，體重增加最多的沒有提到孩子。
10.D　推理判斷題。根據第四段可知，食品專家討論了控制碳酸飲料這一做法的意義。
11.C　推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段中的Menus could make healthier， lower-calorie meals the first choice.可知，餐館可以把更健康的食物推薦給食客們，這將有助于控制肥胖癥這一社會現象。
12.B　標題歸納題。文章主要介紹美國肥胖癥人群正在增加這一現象，并對此進行分析及給出的建議。故B項（美國正成為肥胖嚴重的國家）最適合作文章標題。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了中國的煎餅以及簡單的制作煎餅的方法。
13.C　上文提到了煎餅這種食物，下文說明了制作煎餅的方法。C項（這里有一種簡單的制作煎餅的方法）承上啟下，符合語境。
14.G　根據上下文可知，本段主要說明的是如何揉面，上文提到了將面粉和開水混合并攪拌直到形成粗糙的面團，由此可知，G項（把熱面團揉大約六分鐘，直到面團變得光滑）符合語境。
15.F　上一段最后一句提到了把面團放在碗里醒二十分鐘。F項（接下來，把醒好的面團拿出來放在撒了少量面粉的平面上）符合語境。
16.A　上文提到了把煎餅搟成一個6英寸的圓，由此可知，本句應說明下一步該做什么，下文提到了你準備剩下的面團時的注意事項。A項（繼續揉剩下的面團）符合語境。
17.D　上文提到了把煎餅煎至兩面都變成褐色，由此可知。D項（第二面比第一面煎得快）符合語境。D項中The second side以及the first side對應上文both sides。

A Child of Two Cuisines①
[1]Growing up in England with a British father and a Chinese mother， I’ve enjoyed food from both countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork — and chopsticks！
Mum has sweet memories of the food from her home town in Sichuan， and often cooks spicy dishes.Thanks to this， Dad has come to love② hot pot③！But there are still some dishes that Dad dare④not try even after many years of marriage⑤ to my mother.He once told me [2]he was surprised by what he saw on the table when he first visited my mother’s parents in China.He was even shocked at their wedding⑥ when he saw how the Chinese ate almost every part of an animal.Even today， he still does not easily take to⑦ eating things like chicken feet.
　　[1]本句為復合句，其中Growing up ...Chinese mother為動詞-ing短語作原因狀語，ever since引導時間狀語從句。
　　[2] he was surprised ...in China為省略了that的賓語從句，從句中what引導賓語從句，when引導時間狀語從句。
　　But I enjoy that sort⑧ of food myself.Last week， I went to the butcher’s⑨ and asked， “Do you have pigs’ ears？”“No，” the butcher said， pulling at⑩ his own ears，“just these ordinary ones.” He [3]must have thought I was joking.
　　[3]此處為“must have done”結構，表示對過去發生的動作或狀態的肯定推測，意為“想必/準是/一定做了某事”。
Dad can cook a super “full English breakfast” of bacon ， eggs， beans， sausages and toast with butter — Mum and I just have to find a way to get him into the kitchen！He also does a typical Sunday roast .We all love roast beef and vegetables， but Mum says [4]we’d better not eat too much roast food as it may make us suffer from heat inside our bodies， according to traditional Chinese medicine.
　　[4]we’d better not eat ...是省略引導詞that的賓語從句，作says的賓語；as引導原因狀語從句。
　　I’ll never forget my first visit to China.Mum encouraged me to try different kinds of food， and I did！ I loved everything.But just when I thought I could deal with all Chinese food， I came across stinky tofu ， a horrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe.“You needn’t try it if you don’t want to，” Mum said， but I gathered all my courage to take a bite and was amazed to find it wasn’t so bad.It reminded me of blue cheese ， a similarly strong smelling type of food you either love or hate.Maybe I’ll fall in love with stinky tofu — someday .
People say that one man’s meat is another man’s poison ， but I feel at home with food from both my cultures.To me， [5]there’s nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea of English biscuits and a cup of Chinese oolong tea in a fine china cup！
　　[5]“否定詞＋比較級”結構用于表示最高級含義。

享受跨國美食的孩子
我在英國長大，我爸爸是英國人，媽媽是中國人。從能拿刀叉——還有筷子——開始，我就一直在享受這兩個國家的食物！
媽媽對四川家鄉的食物有著美好的回憶，她經常會做一些辛辣菜肴。正因為如此，爸爸已經逐漸愛上了火鍋！但是，盡管已經和媽媽結婚好多年了，爸爸還是有一些不敢嘗試的菜肴。他曾告訴我，第一次去中國拜訪媽媽的父母時，餐桌上擺的東西讓他大吃一驚。在婚禮上，他更是嚇了一跳，因為他看到差不多動物的所有部位中國人都吃。甚至到今天，他還是不習慣吃雞爪之類的東西。
不過我自己很喜歡吃這類食物。上周，我去肉店問：“你們這里有豬耳朵嗎？”“沒有，”肉店老板拽了拽自己的耳朵說，“只有這種普通的耳朵。”他肯定覺得我是在開玩笑。
爸爸會做美味的“全套英式早餐”，有培根、雞蛋、豆子、香腸，還有黃油吐司——不過我和媽媽得想辦法讓他進廚房（他才動手）！他也會做傳統的星期日烤肉大餐。我們都喜歡烤的牛肉和蔬菜，但媽媽說最好不要吃太多燒烤食物，因為根據傳統中醫的說法，這會引起上火。
我永遠不會忘記自己的第一次中國之旅。媽媽鼓勵我嘗試各種食物，我也照做了！我什么都喜歡吃。可是就在我以為自己能夠接受所有中國食物的時候，我遇到了臭豆腐，一種可怕的灰色食物，樣子和氣味就像是燒焦的運動鞋。“如果你不想嘗試的話，可以不吃。”媽媽說。但我還是鼓足所有勇氣咬了一口，結果驚奇地發現也沒那么糟。它的味道讓我想起了藍紋奶酪，一種類似的有著濃重氣味的食物，你要么會愛上它，要么會恨死它。也許我會愛上臭豆腐的——將來總有那么一天吧。
人們常說，一個人的佳肴可能是另一個人的毒藥，但中英兩種文化中的食物我都喜歡。對我來說，用英國餅干搭配盛在細瓷杯中的中國烏龍茶——沒有什么比這樣一次跨文化的下午茶更棒的了！

【參考譯文】
享受跨國美食的孩子
我在英國長大，我爸爸是英國人，媽媽是中國人。從能拿刀叉—
—還有筷子——開始，我就一直在享受這兩個國家的食物！
媽媽對四川家鄉的食物有著美好的回憶，她經常會做一些辛辣菜
肴。正因為如此，爸爸已經逐漸愛上了火鍋！但是，盡管已經和媽媽
結婚好多年了，爸爸還是有一些不敢嘗試的菜肴。他曾告訴我，第一
次去中國拜訪媽媽的父母時，餐桌上擺的東西讓他大吃一驚。在婚禮
上，他更是嚇了一跳，因為他看到差不多動物的所有部位中國人都
吃。甚至到今天，他還是不習慣吃雞爪之類的東西。
不過我自己很喜歡吃這類食物。上周，我去肉店問：“你們這里
有豬耳朵嗎？”“沒有，”肉店老板拽了拽自己的耳朵說，“只有這
種普通的耳朵。”他肯定覺得我是在開玩笑。
爸爸會做美味的“全套英式早餐”，有培根、雞蛋、豆子、香
腸，還有黃油吐司——不過我和媽媽得想辦法讓他進廚房（他才動
手）！他也會做傳統的星期日烤肉大餐。我們都喜歡烤的牛肉和蔬
菜，但媽媽說最好不要吃太多燒烤食物，因為根據傳統中醫的說法，
這會引起上火。
我永遠不會忘記自己的第一次中國之旅。媽媽鼓勵我嘗試各種食
物，我也照做了！我什么都喜歡吃。可是就在我以為自己能夠接受所
有中國食物的時候，我遇到了臭豆腐，一種可怕的灰色食物，樣子和
氣味就像是燒焦的運動鞋。“如果你不想嘗試的話，可以不吃。”媽
媽說。但我還是鼓足所有勇氣咬了一口，結果驚奇地發現也沒那么
糟。它的味道讓我想起了藍紋奶酪，一種類似的有著濃重氣味的食
物，你要么會愛上它，要么會恨死它。也許我會愛上臭豆腐的——將
來總有那么一天吧。
人們常說，一個人的佳肴可能是另一個人的毒藥，但中英兩種文
化中的食物我都喜歡。對我來說，用英國餅干搭配盛在細瓷杯中的中
國烏龍茶——沒有什么比這樣一次跨文化的下午茶更棒的了！

　　Eating too much fat contributes to the risk of stroke （中風） and
other heart diseases. However， it’s the type of fat， not the amount，
that appears to be more important when it comes to stroke. Eating plant-
based fats lowers stroke risk， according to a study presentation given at
the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions.
　　The study， which hasn’t yet been proved by other researchers，
found people who ate the most vegetable-based fats were 12% less likely
to experience a stroke compared to those who ate the least. On the other
hand， people who ate the highest levels of animal-based saturated （飽和
的） fats were 16% more likely to experience a stroke than those who ate
the least fats of that kind. The findings show the type and different food
sources of fat are more important than the total amount of fat in preventing
certain diseases， including stroke.
　　“You need fat to survive. Fat helps your body absorb vitamins from
foods， build cells， give you energy and keep you warm. But it’s the
unsaturated fats that come from vegetables， nuts and fatty fish that can
lower your cholesterol （膽固醇） level and help keep you healthy.
Saturated fats are generally not as healthy， which mainly come from red
and processed meat，” said Dr Frank Hu， one of the authors of the
study.
　　A proper reduction in red and processed meat consumption with a
healthy eating pattern can reduce total death rate by 13%， heart disease
death by 14%， cancer death by 11% and Type 2 Diabetes risk by 24%，
according to the study.
　　Interestingly， dairy fat was not associated with a higher risk of
stroke， the study found. There has been an ongoing debate among
researchers as to the role of dairy. The diet guidelines for Americans call
for three servings of low-and no-fat dairy each day.

　　A famous health tip says you’d better drink eight glasses of water
（about two liters） a day.However， the results of a new study suggest
that fewer are needed. An international group led by scientists at the
Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology in China found that the
average daily water intake of a man in his 20s should be 1.5 to 1.8 liters，
while it should be 1.3 to 1.4 liters for a female in the same age group.
The study published recently in the journal Science described， for the
first time， a set of equations （方程組） to predict human water
turnover， a sign reflecting the amount of water used by the body each
day.
　　The researchers investigated 5，604 participants from the ages of 8
days to 96 years from more than 20 countries， using isotope（同位素）-
tracking methods. They have found that a man aged 20 to 35 consumes
4.2 liters of water each day， while a woman aged 30 to 60 consumes 3.3
liters， with the water requirements dropping as he or she ages.
　　Since the metabolism（新陳代謝）and water exchange on skin can
provide 15 per cent， while food and drinking respectively contributing
half of the remaining 85 per cent， people are encouraged to drink less
than 45 per cent of the total daily turnover， according to the researchers.
“The majority of people perhaps don’t have to drink eight glasses of
water a day，” says Zhang Xueying， co-first author of the paper and an
assistant research fellow at the SIAT.
　　The total water input and output change according to a number of
factors， including body size， physical activity， air temperature and
altitude （海拔）， according to the study. “The equations can be
applied to individuals around the world，” says Zhang. However，
people living in countries with a low human development index （指數）
have higher water turnover than people in developed countries， she adds.
　　The study challenges the long-standing belief and marks the first step
towards a personalized prediction of water requirements， says John
Speakman， who also works at the SIAT.

America has become the land of fast-food and processed
food.Americans are putting on weight.Obesity （肥胖） is everywhere.It
is much greater than it was thirty years ago.
Experts say that in ten years， almost half of all American adults will
be obese.About one in four will be very obese.The weight gain will be
highest among women， black adults， and low-income adults.
What can government do to keep this from taking place？Can laws
and rules make a difference in people’s diets？Experts point at the
discussion over how to control sugar-sweetened soda.The first problem is
soft drinks.It spends millions to market its products and stops most efforts
to tax （征稅） their products.They say that lower-income people will use
their little money to buy soda.Taxes could hurt the same people it was to
help.
Experts say not drinking soda would mean big savings in health care
costs.A soda tax set by Philadelphia caused a fall in the sale of
soda.Savings in health care costs would be much bigger than the cost of a
tax.
Is food now a way to feel better， not just to meet the need to eat？
An expert said， “Obesity will be the new normal in this country.” The
worst problem is drinking calories.It does not make people feel full， so
they are likely to eat more.
Some suggest that restaurants do something.Observers note that
portion sizes （分量） are too big.An expert said， “Menus could make
healthier， lower-calorie meals the first choice.”
Experts say that everyone and every level of government have to play
a role.

How to Make Chinese Pancakes
　　Chinese pancakes， also known as “spring pancakes”， can be
used in many different ways in Chinese cooking. You can use these
pancakes to wrap moo shu pork， Peking duck or any other meat or
vegetables you like. 13.（　　）
　　To make Chinese pancakes， first you should gather the ingredients
（原料）. You need 2 cups of flour， 1 cup of boiling water and 2
teaspoons of cooking oil.
　　Then， in a large bowl， combine the flour and boiling water，
starting with 3/4 cup of water. Begin stirring （攪拌） it immediately，
adding a little more water at a time until a shaggy dough （表面粗糙的面
團） forms. 14.（　　） If the dough sticks to your hands， add some
flour. Then leave the dough in the bowl for 20 minutes.
　　15. （　　） Cut the dough in half to form 2 balls. Use a lightly
floured rolling pin （搟面杖） to roll each half out until it is 1/4-inch
thick. Afterwards， use a cookie cutter to cut out 3-inch circles of dough.
Brush 1/4 teaspoon of oil over the top of 2 dough circles. Lay one pancake
on top of the other， so that the oiled sides are together.
　　Roll out the pancakes together to form a 6-inch circle.16.（　　）
By the way， don’t forget to cover the prepared pancakes with a slightly
wet towel， which can keep them from drying out while you are preparing
the remaining dough.
　　Finally， heat a frying pan over a medium heat. Add one of the
pancake pairs and cook until browned on both sides. 17.（　　）
Remove the paired pancakes from the pan and pull them apart while they
are still hot. Cover the pancakes to keep them warm. Continue with the
remainder of the pancakes. Serve immediately.
A. Continue with the rest of the dough.
B. These pancakes can be made ahead and frozen.
C. Here is a simplified method of making these pancakes.
D. The second side will cook more quickly than the first side.
E. By the way， they are perfect for wrapping up Peking duck.
F. Next， take the rested dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
G. Work the warm dough for about 6 minutes until you have a smooth
dough.
