Question

Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense. 
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season. 
Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.

解析试题分析：这篇短文给我们介绍的是人和动物是怎样选择食物的，以及很多动物都不只是吃一种类型的食物，文章最后还提到了在选择食物时还要注意是否有利于健康。
【小题1】主旨大意题。根据文章的第一段Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense可知，人和动物一样，都是依靠一种感觉来选择食物。而且不同的动物用不同的感觉，大多数动物不只依靠一种感觉。故选D。
【小题2】词义猜测题。根据文章第二段的内容可知一些动物只吃一种类型的食物，在文中有however 一词，我们可知接下来表述的内容和前面是相反的，即还有一些动物不只吃一种类型的食物，也就是吃各种各样的食物。故选A。
【小题3】细节理解题。根据文章的第二段A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden.可知，有一种蝴蝶只停在卷心菜上，即使花园里还有很多其他的蔬菜，所以这种白蝴蝶只吃这一种类型的食物。故选C。
【小题4】段意理解题。根据文章的最后一段内容可知，很多人在选择食物时，并没有注意到这种食物是否对人体的健康有利，例如在法国和英国这样的国家，人们吃的糖太多，这对他们的健康是没有好处的。故选B，人们对健康的饮食关心很少。
【小题5】主旨大意题。这篇短文给我们介绍的是人和动物是怎样选择食物的，还有很多动物都不只是吃一种类型的食物，文章最后还提到了在选择食物时还要注意是否对自己的健康有利。故A选项最符合文意。
