“DRINK your milk. It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times, and it’s true. Milk contains calcium（鈣）, which is necessary for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The US government even _______ milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat - free or low - fat milk every meal.

However, a group of doctors asked the government to take it away from the lunch program. The US ‘Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM)’ says, “Milk is high in sugar, fat and animal protein,” all of which are not so _______ to health. There are better ways to get calcium, such as eating beans and drinking orange juice and soymilk. “One of the only _______ people prefer milk is because it is going to help build strong bones,” says Dr Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. But milk may not be the best way to get calcium your body needs.

Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other things that have _______ to do with your bone strength, such as genes（基因）, how much vitamin D you take in, and time, getting an hour’s exercise every day.

Some people disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important. Keri Gans, an American Dietitian（營(yíng)養(yǎng)學(xué)家）, says “I don’t think it’s _______ if we take away this drink from the lunch line. Children enjoy it very much, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient（營(yíng)養(yǎng)的）needs for the day.”

The US government is now considering PCRM’s idea, but _______ may be a long way off. A professor at New York University puts it best: “Milk certainly has nutrients. Other food has the same nutrients. It’s just food. As with other food, too much might be a problem.”

【解析】

文章講述了美國(guó)的傳統(tǒng)認(rèn)為牛奶對(duì)于補(bǔ)鈣是非常重要的營(yíng)養(yǎng)品。然而一些專家卻呼吁少喝牛奶，因?yàn)榕Ｄ逃泻芏嗟奶呛偷鞍踪|(zhì)，他們認(rèn)為可以通過(guò)吃別的更加健康的食物來(lái)給孩子們補(bǔ)鈣，文章也給出了一些相反的觀點(diǎn)，總之，任何東西吃的太多都是不好的。

【1】句意：美國(guó)政府甚至要求牛奶作為國(guó)家學(xué)校午餐計(jì)劃的一部分。

requires要求；refuses拒絕；drinks喝；stops阻止，根據(jù)后面句子“saying that students should drink one cup of fat - free or low - fat milk every meal. ”“說(shuō)學(xué)生每餐要喝一杯無(wú)脂或低脂牛奶”，前面應(yīng)該是美國(guó)政府要求學(xué)生午餐時(shí)間喝一杯牛奶，故選A。

【2】句意：“牛奶含有很高的糖、脂肪和動(dòng)物蛋白”，所有這些對(duì)健康都沒(méi)有多大幫助。

harmful有害的；beautiful漂亮的；helpful有用的；awful可怕的，根據(jù)前面句子“The US ‘Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM)’ says, “Milk is high in sugar, fat and animal protein,”“牛奶中含有大量的糖、脂肪和動(dòng)物蛋白”，可知PCRM認(rèn)為牛奶中所含的物質(zhì)會(huì)對(duì)健康產(chǎn)生負(fù)面影響，對(duì)我們的健康沒(méi)有用，故選C。

【3】句意：人們喜歡牛奶的唯一原因就是它能幫助骨骼強(qiáng)壯。

signals信號(hào)；tasks任務(wù)；manner禮貌；reasons原因，根據(jù)后面句子“people prefer milk is because it is going to help build strong bones”“人們喜歡牛奶是因?yàn)樗�有助于�?qiáng)健骨骼”，應(yīng)該是一個(gè)主要原因，故選D。

【4】句意：但是還有其它和你的骨骼強(qiáng)度有關(guān)的東西。

anything任何事情，用于否定句或疑問(wèn)句；something 某事； everything 所有事；nothing沒(méi)有，根據(jù)“Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other things that have ___4___ to do with your bone strength, such as genes…”“當(dāng)然，鈣對(duì)健康的骨骼和牙齒很重要，但還有其他與骨骼強(qiáng)度有關(guān)的事情”，故選B。

【5】句意：我認(rèn)為這是不負(fù)責(zé)任的，如果我們把這杯飲料從午餐上拿走。

responsible負(fù)責(zé)的；important重要的；unhealthy不健康的；useless無(wú)用的，根據(jù)后面句子“we take away this drink from the lunch line. Children enjoy it very much, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient（營(yíng)養(yǎng)的）needs for the day.” “我們把這杯飲料從午餐線上拿走了。孩子們非常喜歡它，特別是那些無(wú)法滿足一天所需營(yíng)養(yǎng)的人。”可知認(rèn)為這樣做是不負(fù)責(zé)任的，故選A。

【6】句意：美國(guó)政府現(xiàn)在正在考慮PCRM的想法，但要做出決定可能還有很長(zhǎng)的路要走。

a situation一種情況；a decision一個(gè)決定；an invention一個(gè)發(fā)明；an occupation一個(gè)職業(yè)，根據(jù)“The US government is now considering PCRM’s idea, but…”“美國(guó)政府正在考慮PCRM的想法，但…”，可知要做決定需要很長(zhǎng)的路要走，故選B。

解答完形填空首先要通讀全文，掌握大意。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)初步弄清短文寫了些什么內(nèi)容。在理解全文意思的基礎(chǔ)上，結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容對(duì)空缺句子作合乎邏輯的推理。必須弄清空缺詞句的確切含義，空缺詞句與其前后句的意義銜接必須自然、合理，最后根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，選出正確答案。如，第1小題，根據(jù)后面句子“saying that students should drink one cup of fat - free or low - fat milk every meal. ”“說(shuō)學(xué)生每餐要喝一杯無(wú)脂或低脂牛奶，前面應(yīng)該是美國(guó)政府要求學(xué)生午餐時(shí)間喝一杯牛奶”，故選A。
