Question

7．Vans，Keds，Dollies-they sound like the names of rock bands，but if you have teenagers，you'll know they're actually the latest in teenage footwear．
But experts are now warning that the current shoe fashions will be causing teenagers discomfort in the short term and storing up years of foot，knee and back pain in the future．
Here，the experts identify the problems caused by teenagers'shoe choice．
KEDS/VANS

Slip-on shoes with elastic （弹性的）sides are particularly popular among teenage boys-with Keds and Vans the most sought-after brands．
The main problem is that they are just too flat-so flat that the heel，which strikes the ground first，also becomes damaged and painful．
BALLET PUMPS

The worst shoes of all are such light and thin dolly shoes．The problem is partly their flatness，as with Keds and Vans．However ballet pumps，which have no string or heel，have other specific problems．
"As the shoe has no fastening device，it relies on the toes to keep the shoe on，causing an awkward gait（步法），this leads to short-and long-term problems such as calluses（茧子），heel and knee pain．"
WEDGES AND STILETTOS

These shoes can also cause problems with gait．They may look good，but the heels on these are so high they can force the wearer's body weight forward，making them very unstable．
Teens who wear these shoes regularly are also in danger of joining those millions of women with constant back pain．
SCHOOL SHOES
So what do podiatrists（足科医生）have on their wish list，especially for everyday wear？
Something in a natural，breathable fabric，with a string to hold it on，with a small heel and a deep toe-box that does not press the toes，such as Clark's，Marks & Spencer or Rhino．
If your teen insists on wearing'bad'shoes，get them some simple foot orthotics（矫形器） in the shoes．These support and correct the movement of the foot and，properly fitted by a podiatrist，can often transform their walk and halt the damage．
61．Of all the shoes mentioned in the passage，which can cause the worst problems？D
A．Marks & Spencer．
B．Wedges & Stilettos．
C．Keds and Vans．
D．Ballet Pumps．
62．Which pair of shoes may not be found on the podiatrists'wish list？

63．The underlined word"halt"in the last paragraph probably meansC
A．increase           B．worsen                 C．stop               D．cure
64．From this passage we can inferA．
A．trendy shoes may ruin teenagers'health
B．fashionable shoes all have orthotics in them
C．experts are strongly against wearing popular shoes
D．podiatrists are expert at producing branded shoes
65．In which column of Mail Online can you find this passage？C

分析 本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们介绍了三种款式的鞋子对人的身体，尤其是对青少年的身体造成的危害，并介绍了足科医生对青少年选鞋和穿鞋的建议．

解答 61．D．事实细节题．从对Ballet Pumps的介绍部分第一JxThe worst shoesof all are such light and thin dolly shoes．可知Ballet Pumps造成的问题最严重；故选D．
62．B．推理判断题．倒数第二段中足科医生建议的鞋子款式为Some-thing in a natural．breathable fabric，with a string to hold it on，with a smallheel and a deep toe-box that does not press the toes…（由自然的、透气的纤维制成，有一条带予把它固定住，有小的鞋跟，还有不挤脚的深的鞋窝…）而B款没有鞋跟，所以不符合足科医生建议列表里的要求；故选B．
63．C．猜测词义题．首先"damage"是损伤．其次从上下文可知让青少年使用矫形器就是为了矫正他们的走姿，使其停止对身体的损伤．A．增强，B．使焉化，D．治疗，只有C．stop"停止"符合句意；故选C．
64．A．推理判断题题：根据文章最后一段If your teen insists on wearing"bad"shoes，get them some simple foot orthotics（矫形器） in the shoes．These support and correct the movement of the foot and，properly fitted by a podiatrist，can often transform their walk and halt the damage．可知时髦的鞋可能会毁坏青少年的健康，故选A．
