Question

【題目】The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems.

【解析】很多人都喜歡喝功能飲料，因?yàn)樗麄冾伾�豐富，名字很酷，據(jù)說(shuō)還對(duì)健康有益。其實(shí)經(jīng)過(guò)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，功能飲料里含有大量的咖啡因，多喝的話對(duì)我們的健康是很不好的。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!以及第三段中Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake.可知，人們喜歡功能飲料是因?yàn)樗麄兩�彩艷麗、名字很酷，據(jù)說(shuō)對(duì)健康有益；制造商們說(shuō)這些飲料可以使你清醒，擅長(zhǎng)運(yùn)動(dòng)。因此A、C和D都是對(duì)的。功能飲料里含有咖啡因不是人們喜歡喝的原因，故應(yīng)選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第四段中Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks.可知，功能飲料里可能對(duì)健康有潛在的危險(xiǎn)，所以人們不能喝太多，故應(yīng)選D。

【3】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)上文對(duì)咖啡因的描述以及下文from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them可知，此處指的是應(yīng)該勸阻青少年們不喝含有大量咖啡因的飲料。故應(yīng)選B。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段的內(nèi)容可知，廣告在人們購(gòu)買功能飲料的問(wèn)題上起著重要的作用，故應(yīng)選A。其他三項(xiàng)不符合文意。

【5】主旨大意題。從全篇文章和第三段But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine in them可知，這篇短文主要告訴我們功能飲料不健康，里面含有很多的咖啡因，故C選項(xiàng)的題目最為合適。
