题目内容

【题目】Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You're not alone. Back experts in the USA were worried that young students are having back and neck problems because they are carrying too much in their backpacks schoolbags.

"It hurts my back when I run" said Beeline Reyes, a student in Virginia. "It's hard to get up the stairs with my backpack because it's too heavy. "

Students have to carry heavy backpacks on their backs for a whole week's study. Beeline is one of them. They have regular back-packs with two straps (带子)to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads have switched to rolling backpacks. The backpacks have wheels and can roll on the ground.

Shirley Park's backpack weighs 10 kilos, and she said"I'll change to a rolling backpack because I am starting to have back pain. "

How much is too much? Experts say that students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight. A few students have had a good idea to lighten the load Less homework.

Doctor's suggestions

Lighten the load. Take home only the books the students need that night.

Wide straps are better. They can send out weight over your shoulders and be sure to wear backpacks with two straps.

The heaviest things should be packed closest to the back.

Bend (弯曲)both knees when you pick up the pack, don't just bend the waist(腰).

1The main idea of the text is __________.

A. the problems made by rolling backpacks

B. the goodness of backpacks

C. the best backpacks for students

D. how to make students' backpacks light

2From what Eglin Reyes and Shirley Park said, we know __________.

A. students have to carry heavy backpacks

B. students have to do homework

C. backpacks with wheels are bad for students

D. students have no time to play because of homework

3By the words of the experts, it's better for a student of 40 kilos to carry a backpack of at most __________.

A. 10 kilos B. 8 kilos

C. 6 kilos D. 7 kilos

4If students follow the doctor's suggestions, they __________.

A. may do less homework

B. may feel their backpacks are lighter

C. can learn how to enjoy them

D. will know how to use backpacks

【答案】

1C

2A

3C

4D

【解析】

1C读完全文我们可以知道文章讲的都是最适合和最好的书包,而不是由于书包的滑轮而带来的问题或书包的好处。由此可知答案为C

2A Eglin Reyes说背着书包上楼很困难,是因为它太重了。而Shirley Park的书包重10公斤。因此我们可得知学生不得不背很重的书包。

3C文章第5段说可以背相对于学生体重10%-15%的重量。那么40公斤的学生最多背40×15% =6公斤。

4D从专家的建议中我们了解到学生如何正确使用书包以减少背部的问题。由此可知答案是D

【题目】Many people rely on a cup of coffee or two to wake them up in the morning or refresh them during the working day, but now a chemist has come up with a speedy alternative to drinking coffee.

U.S. biochemist Ben Yu has created ‘Sprayable Energy’, which claims to be the world's first caffeine - based topical energy spray.

He said tired workers can spray a 'shot' of caffeine onto their skin without experiencing a strong noise, taking in unnecessary calories or being stuck with a nasty aftertaste like they might get from drinking energy drinks or coffee.

The tasteless caffeine spray is absorbed through the skin and spread through the body over a number of hours to deliver a caffeine hit that lasts longer than drinking a cup of coffee. The only active ingredient in the spray is caffeine, which is very similar to nicotine in structure. Each spray Sprayable Energy contains around a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in a cup of coffee, but apparently has the same effect as a full cup.

The website said: “The reason for this is our product isn't entirely metabolized(新陈代谢) by the liver before entering your system and becoming available to your body.” Sprayable Energy's website recommends that users apply the spray in places where they normally spritz perfume, such as wrists, the neck or behind the ears, but warns users not to exceed 20 times a day.

It claims that after spraying the product on the skin, users will feel awake and focus withut being over-excited, which is common with coffee and energy drinks.

【1】Compared with an energy drink or a coffee, what is good about “Sprayable Energy”?

A. It makes no noise.

B. It contains lower calories.

C. It has a good taste.

D. It contains many active ingredients.

【2】Which of the body may not be suitable to apply “Sprayable Energy”?

A. The neck. B. Behind the ears. C. Wrists. D. Mouth.

【3】What can we infer from the text?

A. “Sprayable Energy” contains caffeine as well as nicotine.

B. The liver can metabolize in caffeine before it enters your system.

C. Whenever you feel tired, you can spray the product.

D. After spraying “Sprayable Energy”, you’ll get rid of tiredness.
