A recent study offers a picture of how dangerous it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal(致命的)accident as a teenager driving alone. However, the possibility of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with each additional (added) passenger.

  It was also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased greatly after 10 p.m., and especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late night accident.

  Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience. Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to help solve the problem is to have states setting up so-called graduated licensing systems(等级执照制). A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove that he/she is able to drive in the presence of an adult, followed by a period of driving with a limited number of passengers, before graduating to full driving on his own. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place. The systems have reduced teenage driver crashes(相撞), according to recent studies.

小题1:Which of the following situations is most dangerous according to the passage?

A.Adults giving a lift to teenagers on the highway after 10 p.m.

B.A teenager driving after midnight with passengers in the car.

C.Adults driving with three or more teenage passengers late at night.

D.A teenager getting a lift from a stranger on the highway at midnight.小题2:According to Robert Foss, the high death rate of teenage drivers is mainly because __.

A.their preference for driving at night

B.their lack of driving experience

C.their careless way of driving

D.their driving with passengers

答案

小题1:B

小题2:B

题目分析:这篇文章主要讲的年轻的司机发生事故死亡的概率要高一些,以及导致事故发生的原因,并且为了避免这些事故所采取的措施。

小题1:细节题。由第二段It was also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased greatly after 10 p.m., and especially after midnight.研究发现青年司机的死亡率在晚上10点之后大大的增加了,尤其是在午夜之后。可知答案选B。

小题2: 细节题。由第三段the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience。青年司机由于愚蠢的驾驶习惯导致的高死亡率比由于缺乏驾驶经验导致的死亡率要少。可知,死亡率主要是由于缺乏驾驶经验引起的。故选B

点评:文章全文细节题,对于细节题,学生在理解全文的基础上要对题目中关键字在文章中迅速定位,找到相对应的出处,答题比较备选答案的区别及和文章信息最相关的是哪个,即那个就为正确答案。

          ①盐是一种生活必需品,它的主要成分是氯化钠。氯离子和钠离子在人体新陈代谢中发挥着重要作用。氯离子具有维持渗透压、调节酸碱平衡和组成胃酸等生理作用。钠离子在人体水量恒定上起主要调节作用,钠多则水也多,钠少水也应当减少。因此盐摄入过多时,可能发生水肿,过少时,可能引起脱水。

          ②虽然我们的身体离不开盐,但是过多的摄入盐却对身体产生危害。日本秋田县的居民喜欢吃咸食,每人每天盐的摄入量为20-30 克,比其他县的居民多两倍。结果秋田县居民中高血压等疾病的发病率明显偏高,是日本有名的短命县

          ③为什么盐摄入过多会导致高血压呢?研究表明,盐能使人体“水化”。也就是说,人体盐分多了,对水分的需求也要相应的增加,从而使过多的水分滞留在体内,导致血管内血浆容易增加,最终引发高血压。最近科学家发现,一种蛋白质“Racl”在摄取盐分过多导致高血压的过程中起关键作用。如果开发出抑制Racl 的药物,就能够治疗因摄取盐分过多而导致的高血压。 

          ④按照世界卫生组织的推荐标准,每人每天盐摄入量以5 克为宜,不宜超过6 克。事实上人们的盐摄入量往往高于此推荐值。我国城市居民平均每人每天摄入盐9.7 克,农村居民为11.1 克,并且中老年群体盐摄入量明显高于青少年。 

          ⑤减少盐的摄入不仅有助于降低高血压的患病风险,还有利于降低脑卒中和其他心血管疾病的患病风险。由此可见,对于高血压、脑血栓等疾病患者,采取限制盐摄入量要比多吃蛋白质和不吃肥肉等措施更有效。

         ⑥英国的一项研究发现,将盐摄入量从每天9-12 克减少到5-6 克,血压会有明显的降低。通过这种方式所达到的降压效果等同于口服降压药的效果。

         ⑦          首先对每天盐摄入采取总量控制。一般而言,20 毫升酱油中含有约3 克盐,10 克黄豆酱中约1.5 克。如果炒菜时需要用酱油或酱类调味时,应按比例减少相应的盐用量。其次食物加工、烹调时尽量少放盐。不吃或少吃咸菜以及含盐量多的酱菜、腌肉制品等食物。最后应多选择含钾多、含钠少的绿色食品。谷类中的荞麦和小米钾含量较高,蔬菜中土豆、藕、油菜、大白菜、番茄等和水果中大枣、山楂、香蕉、苹果等都含有比较丰富的钾。⑧如何降低高血压等疾病的发病率呢?请记住,少吃盐永远是你的健康之道。

11. 简要概括盐与人类健康的关系。

12. 简要说明第⑦段中加点词“尽量”的表达效果。

13.第②段运用了多种说明方法,选择一种说明其作用。

14.在第⑦段空格处填写本段的中心句。
