第6题：
The passage mainly talks about( )A.the general situation of eating disorders in the group of children
B.the reason why children are suffering from eating disorders
C.the steps parents should take to prevent their children from eating disorders
D.all of the above .答案：D解析：主旨题。全文介绍了饮食不规律孩子的状况，饮食不规律的原因，以及对此给父母的建议。故本题选D。参考译文：在当今社会，我们看到越来越多的12岁以下儿童饮食失调。据估计，九岁的儿童中有40%已经开始节食，我们也能够看到四五岁的儿童也开始表达节食的意愿。这么小的孩子就被剥夺了童年，真是一大憾事。为什么会有这么多的孩子沉迷于节食和减肥呢？我觉得这和家庭环境有很大关系，另外一个事实是，孩子们不断地接触到社会传递的“瘦很重要”的信息。家庭功能缺失的孩子饮食失调的风险更高。在一个遭受身体虐待或性骚扰的家庭中，孩子可能会转向饮食失调以获得“控制感”。他们无法控制自己的身体在虐待期间的遭遇，但他们可以控制自己的食物摄入量或体重。自我强迫的饥饿也可能是他们试图隐藏自身的方式，这样他们就不用再遭受虐待。如果儿童生长在一个不允许表达情感的家庭中，那么他们也可能会饮食失调，因为这是他们处理情绪的方式。被强制进食的孩子通常会用食物来帮助自身处理愤怒、悲伤、受伤、孤独、被遗弃、恐惧和痛苦的情绪。如果孩子不被允许表达自身的情绪，他们可能会成为情绪化的食客。此外，如果父母过于关注自身，孩子可能会转向食物寻求安慰。如果父母过分在意孩子的外表和体重，孩子也有可能饮食失调。如果父母一直在节食，并且对自己的身材不满意，那么孩子就会认为外表很重要。在一些家庭中，父母把婴儿肥误认为是真正的肥胖，可能会试图强迫孩子节食。这不仅错误，而且很残忍。作为父母，你需要为孩子树立好的榜样，这意味着你应该健康饮食。另一件要记住的事是，孩子们饿了就吃，饱了就停。如果孩子不想吃，千万不要强迫他们吃。太多的家庭强迫孩子留在餐桌上，直到吃完盘子里的所有食物。这样做可能会导致孩子讨厌吃饭，对食物产生厌恶。锻炼也是个人生活的重要组成部分，我们需要协助孩子们参与体育活动，这意味着父母应该自发参加健康的锻炼。帮助孩子找到他们喜欢的活动以及全家人都能享受的活动。他们应当被告知体育活动对保持身体强壮健康和的重要性，而不是被告知锻炼只是为了保持身材苗条。 -

第8题：
单选题The word “Diaspora” in this passage means _____.Athe movement of the Jewish people away from their own country to live and work in other countries
Bthe movement of people from any nation or group away from their own country
Cany group that has been dispersed outside its traditional homeland
Da dispersion of an originally homogeneous entity, such as a language or culture
正确答案： A解析：
词义推断题。文中第三段讲到“Diaspora”是潜在的“economic force”，接着讲到由于交通便宜便捷，“Diaspora”的数量日益增加。之后指出第一代“immigrants”人数超过巴西人口，并给出例子说在国外的中国人数量多；印度人分散在世界各地；西非聚集着黎巴嫩人，巴西聚集着日本人，巴塔哥尼亚聚集着威尔士人，中国南方有西非人聚集，这些都表明“Diaspora”与“migration”同义，即the movement of persons from one country or locality to another。因此正确答案选B。 -

文章主旨题。该篇文章主要讲述了“孩子”这一概念从不存在到在美国的普遍使用，文章中指出美国是个孩子的王国，以孩子为中心，结合第四段第二句提到的“America is the greatest country in the world to grow up in because it is Kids Country.”可知它比其他国家更注重“孩子”的概念。因此选B。 -

事实细节题。文章第四段指出“网站可以为学生提供Go Ask Alice的链接，它是由哥伦比亚大学创建的大型档案集合，里面有成百上千条对那些来自大学生的匿名咨询的回答”，由此可知该网站是为大学生提供关于精神问题的建议的，B项正确。该段最后几句指出，“对那些担心朋友的学生，有地方可以描述自杀行为和抑郁症的迹象”，故D项不对。 -

Bbegan to star in her first movie when she was ten years old
Cwas unfriendly to her fans
Dencouraged the whole country during the Great Depression
正确答案： D解析：
文中第二段提到“Little Shirley Temple encouraged the whole country during the Great Depression”，故D选项正确。文中第一段提到“She was good at acting and dancing”，故A项“她不擅长跳舞”错误。文中提到她1928年出生，1934年就在一部电影中担任主演，也就是她6岁时就开始成名，故B项“她十岁时开始担任主演”错误。C项在原文中没有相关依据，故也应排除。 -

［C］people living near these ports suffer the most
［D］the polluted air may cause both asthma and smaller lungs
正确答案：D
D与原文第二段最后两句话表达的意思一致。A与全文首句不一致，原文只是说航运比好莱坞在促进经济方面作用更大，并没有否认好莱坞。B曲解了第一段最后一句话。原文把港口比喻成引擎，意思是航运业污染严重，但并没有把航运业与其它产业进行污染程度的比较。C与第二段第二句不相符。原文指的是住在通往港口公路两旁的人受影响最大。从第四段港口解决措施来看，污染主要来自卡车，并非港口。 -

Bkeep labor output constant
Cincrease their competitive advantage
Dpermit business upturns to be more easily predicted
正确答案： D解析：

BTo show the diversity of languages in Japan.
CTo testify the effectiveness of multilingual approach.
DTo criticize neglect of minority tongues by Japanese government.
正确答案： A解析：
逻辑关系的找寻和判断。题干中的关键词为Ainu。录音中出现该词之前，提到“While sounding the alarm, it notes that a determined multilingual approach can rescue even the most threatened tongues”，可知通过坚定地执行多语政策，即时是受最大消亡威胁的语言也可获得拯救。接着录音中便给出日本方言Ainu的例子，指出20世纪80年代在北海道岛只有8名老人说Ainu，但该国对其实施的推广政策，使该语言得到复兴。由此可知C项的说法符合逻辑。 -
第21题：
单选题From the beginning of this passage we know that.Amost of the American states were prohibited to take a rest
Bthe United States of America prohibited others from rest
Cthe United States of America prohibited alcohol sales
Dmost states in the country began to allow alcohol sales
正确答案： B解析：
细节题。第一段第一句提到“…much of the United States of America put Prohibition to rest 73 years ago…”。put…to rest为固定搭配，意为“使…中止”。该句中Prohibition指“禁酒令”，由此可知该句指“73年前美国许多地方就中止了《禁酒令》…”。言外之意就是美国许多州在那时就被允许售酒了，因此选项D为正确答案。 -
