Question

【題目】 Public schools across the country have been on a health look since 2010. Thanks to a new law, students said goodbye to unhealthy food and hello to better eating habits in school. They also have been exercising more during the school day.

It's up to schools to decide how they follow the law. Many places require schools to provide healthy choices for lunch. In Tennessee, most schools removed（移除）sugary snacks and soft drinks from vending machines（自動販賣機(jī)）. Instead of them, there are more nutritious（有營養(yǎng)的）choices, such as granola bars, nuts, water, and juice.

In Florida, Missouri, and Texas, some schools have rules that ban（禁止）desserts such as cupcakes and lollipops from parties. Instead, school officials encourage teachers and parents to provide more nutritious food.

To get kids to exercise more, the northwestern Minnesota district of Perham Dent added more physical activity to the school day. Many schools also make sure that kids have break every day.

The goals of the law are to improve good health and to reduce obesity（肥胖）. Obesity is the condition of being very overweight. Being obese can lead to serious health problems later in life. Experts say the number of children aged 6-11 years old who were obese more than doubled from 1980 to 2012, and the number of obese young people aged 12-19 years old have increased 4 times in the same time period.

“We know that adults who are very overweight get sick more often and lose time at work.” Julia Lear, the director of the Center for Health and Health Care in Schools, told WR News. “The best thing to do is to get kids in the habit of getting lots of exercise and eating healthy meals.”

【解析】

本文主要介紹各地的公立學(xué)校開始注重健康，制定新規(guī)為學(xué)生提供健康的飲食和更多的鍛煉。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“Thanks to a new law, students said goodbye to unhealthy food and hello to better eating habits in school. They also have been exercising more during the school day.”可知，新法律讓學(xué)生們告別了不健康的食物，開始在學(xué)校養(yǎng)成更好的飲食習(xí)慣；他們在上學(xué)的日子里也進(jìn)行了更多的鍛煉。所以這項新法律是與健康問題相關(guān)。故選C。

【2】詞句猜測題。A：新法律；B：學(xué)校食堂；C：含糖零食和軟飲料；D：燕麥棒，堅果，水和果汁。根據(jù)前句及分析“In Tennessee, most schools removed（移除）sugary snacks and soft drinks from vending machines（自動販賣機(jī)）. Instead of them, there are more nutritious（有營養(yǎng)的）choices, such as granola bars, nuts, water, and juice.”可知，用更多有營養(yǎng)的，如燕麥棒、堅果、水和果汁來代替含糖零食和軟飲料。所以此處them指的是含糖零食和軟飲料。故選C。

【3】推理判斷題。A：學(xué)校必須制定同樣的規(guī)則來遵守新的法律。根據(jù)第二段中“It's up to schools to decide how they follow the law.”可知，如何遵守法律是取決于學(xué)校的決定的，該項表述錯誤；B：田納西州的大多數(shù)學(xué)校不再在自動售貨機(jī)里出售軟飲料。根據(jù)第二段中“In Tennessee, most schools removed（移除）sugary snacks and soft drinks from vending machines”可知，田納西州的大多數(shù)學(xué)校不再在自動售貨機(jī)里出售軟飲料，該項表述正確；C：在德克薩斯州的一些學(xué)校，家長們被鼓勵為孩子們提供更多的紙杯蛋糕。根據(jù)第三段中“In Florida, Missouri, and Texas, some schools have rules that ban（禁止）desserts ach as cupcakes and lollipops from parties.”可知，在德克薩斯州的一些學(xué)校，禁止向孩子們提供紙杯蛋糕和棒棒糖，該項表述錯誤；D：從1980年到2012年，6-11歲肥胖兒童的數(shù)量逐漸減少。根據(jù)“Experts say the number of children aged 6-11 years old who were obese more than doubled from 1980 to 2012”可知，從1980年到2012年，6-11歲肥胖兒童的數(shù)量增加了一倍，該項表述錯誤。故選B。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。A：脫發(fā)；B：胃痛；C：聽力損失；D：更容易生病。根據(jù)最后一段中“We know that adults who are very overweight get sick more often and lose time at work.”可知，我們知道，體重超標(biāo)的成年人更容易生病，耽誤工作時間。故選D。
