Why is it that an evening stroll(散
19、步) leaves me feeling eaten alive while my companions are left blissfully un-bitten? Studies suggest that about 20 percent of people are “high attractor types“ who are especially appealing to the female mosquitoes (蚊子) seeking out blood for the extra protein (蛋白质) they need to lay eggs. Of course, no
20、t all mosquitoes are the same. But let s consider some of the more general properties that affect your mosquito appeal. Clothing Color Its true, mosquitoes have discerning(有辨识能力的) fashion taste. Or at least, they re more likely to spot you as a target if you stand out from your environment. Dark col
21、ors, especially, will attract more of the insect. Body Heat Visual clues allow the mosquito to locate you from relatively far away, but as she approaches, it s your body heat that draws her in. This puts pregnant women, who average about 1. 26 degrees Fahrenheit (华氏温度) warmer than others, at a parti
22、cular riska fact which has been substantiated (证实) by a number of studies. Carbon Dioxide This is another reason pregnant women are at a disadvantage. Mosquitoes can detect carbon dioxide using a special organ called a maxillary palp (下颚须) from as far as 164 feet away. Unfortunately for mothers-to-b
23、e, pregnancy causes women to emit 21 percent more CO 2 . This is also why kids are often safe from bites, when bigger, more CO 2 -emitting adults are around. Alcohol Intake On the flip side(另一方面) , pregnant women are (presumably) avoiding another mosquito attractor: alcohol. Although it s unclear ho
24、w mosquitoes go about detecting the presence of ethanol(乙醇), studies show that drinking even just 12 ounces of beer will significantly increase the attention you receive from the pests. The Properties of Your Skin and Sweat Up to 85 percent of your susceptibility(敏感性) to mosquito bites has nothing t
25、o do with what youre drinking, wearing or how much heat your body emitsit s just genetic. Specifically, the composition of your skin bacteriathe kind that naturally and healthily exists therecan serve as an attractor. Blood Type Another factor you can t control? Your blood type. And it stands to rea
26、son that, if the mosquito is there to suck your blood, she cares what kind she s getting. People with blood type O are more prone to mosquito bites than those with type B, with type A folks bringing up the rear.(分数:10.00)(1).According to the author, which factor below serves as the most influencing
27、one in mosquito appealing?(分数:2.00)A.Alcohol drinking.B.Clothing color.C.The properties of the skin and sweat.D.The body heat.(2).What is false about the “ clothing color“ and “body heat“ factors?(分数:2.00)A.The heat surrounding you helps to attract the mosquito far away.B.The mosquito easily detects
28、 people who wear different colors from others.C.Mosquitoes like warm places.D.The pregnant women get bitten much easier because they are warmer.(3).What is NOT the reason why the pregnant women have a high risk of mosquito appeal?(分数:2.00)A.They emit more CO 2 than normal people.B.The air surroundin
29、g them are much warmer than others.C.They drink alcohol.D.They emit more heat than people around.(4).What is the best title for this passage?(分数:2.00)A.Properties That Affect Your Mosquito AppealB.Why Pregnant Women Attract Mosquitoes Easily?C.Your Gene Make You More Attractive to MosquitoesD.Why Ar
30、e Some People More Prone to Mosquito Bites?(5).Which statement is NOT true according to the author?(分数:2.00)A.People with blood type A are more attractive than those with type O.B.Take baths more often lower the risks of mosquito biting.C.Kids get less bites because they emit less CO 2 .D.The author
31、 is among the “high attractor types“.It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways: that they are possess
32、ive and dominant: that they do not trust their children to deal with crises: that they talk too much about certain problemsand that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they
33、 themselves felt when young. Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their o
34、wn. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are resistant and proud be
35、cause you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are underdog(失败者) : you cant win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is
36、 natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially your parent
37、s, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.(分数:10.00)(1).The author is primarily addressing_.(分数:2.00)A.parents of teenagersB.newspaper readersC.teenagersD.those wh
38、o give advice to teenagers(2).The first paragraph is mainly about_.(分数:2.00)A.the teenagers criticism of their parentsB.misunderstandings between teenagers and their parentsC.the dominance of the parents over their childrenD.the teenagers ability to deal with crises(3).Teenagers tend to have strange
39、 clothes and hairstyles because they_.(分数:2.00)A.want to irritate their parentsB.have a strong desire to be leaders in style and tasteC.have no other way to enjoy themselves betterD.want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own(4).Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of w
40、hatever they do because they_.(分数:2.00)A.have a desire to be independentB.feel that they are superior in a small way to the adultsC.are not likely to win over the adultsD.have already been accepted into the adult world(5).To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be_.(分数:2.00)A
41、.obedientB.responsibleC.independentD.co-operativeIn many countries, governments are trying to get citizens to eat more healthily. One way in which governments are trying to do this is by increasing taxes on foods that are unhealthy. For example, Denmark, a country in Europe, taxes products that cont
42、ain a lot of sugar, such as ice cream and chocolate. In 2011, the Danish government went one step further and introduced a tax on the fats contained in foods like butter and cheese. However, experts do not agree whether such taxes work. Some health experts have always disagreed with taxing fats. The
43、y say we need to consider each food separately and not simply worry about how much fat it contains. For the same reason, Danish dairy farmers felt that the government was wrong to say that the foods they produce are unhealthy. Cheese, for example, contains a lot of fat, but it does not seem to lead
44、to health problems in the way other kinds of fat do. Such critics believe that the government should instead try to make healthy foods, such as vegetables, cheaper. There have also been economic problems because of the tax. The Danish government thought that if the cost of fatty foods went up, peopl
45、e would not buy as much of them. However, some foods such as butter and cheese are an important part of the traditional Danish diet. Since these could not be bought in Denmark at reasonable prices, many Danish people began shopping in nearby countries. One study discovered that as many as 48 percent
46、 of Danish people were going to Germany or Sweden to do shopping, and the Danish economy lost about $1.8 billion because of this. For these reasons, the Danish government decided to get rid of the tax after only one year. However, many doctors say that one year is not long enough to know if the tax
47、helped Danish citizens health. They claim that the Danish government is worried more about the economy than it is about the Danish people. But even though the tax did not work in Denmark, some countries have not given up on the idea. The United Kingdom and France are thinking of trying similar taxes
48、, and Hungary has already put a tax on fatty foods.(分数:10.00)(1).What is one way governments are trying to make people healthier?(分数:2.00)A.By promoting low-fat versions of many popular foods.B.By forcing them to pay more for certain kinds of food.C.By decreasing the amount of sugar allowed in produ
49、cts.D.By creating laws concerning how much people are allowed to eat.(2).Dairy farmers in Denmark_.(分数:2.00)A.felt that they were being made to produce too many productsB.were worried that the government was planning to ban cheeseC.argued that their products are healthier than the government saidD.admitted that their p
