【题目】Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight. But the opposite is true for men, whose longterm health benefits when they move in with a female partner.

Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.

It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to make creamier, heavier dishes like curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.

Women still have the strongest longterm influence over the couple's diet and lifestyle, as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.

The report, by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.

The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.

Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.

Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.

Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, “The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.”

【解析】

试题分析:纽卡斯尔大学的营养学专家的研究表明:同居让女人发胖,让男人更健康。

【1】D细节信息题。根据文章中both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half. It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables,可知,同居时,男人会为了迎合另一半而改变饮食习惯,吃更多的清淡食品(女人喜欢的食物),如色拉、水果和蔬菜。故该题正确答案为D.

【2】C词义猜测题。该处light修饰的名词为meals(饮食),而其后例举之物salads, fruit and vegetables,故可推知,light意为:清淡的;不油腻的,所以正确答案为C.

【3】C细节信息题。根据文章倒数第三段可知,女的变胖不仅是因为迎合了对方的胃口,而且还有缓解压力的原因。所以选项A错误;根据倒数第三段最后部分while the same finding has not been observed in men.可知选项B错误;选项D文中并未有所说明;而根据文章倒数第二段Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.很多情侣表示,食物是两人关系的"纽带",共享晚餐对于很多情侣来说十分重要。)故该题正确答案为C.

【4】A推理判断题。纵览全文,特别是根据文章最后一句The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.这项研究表明,你的另一半对于你的生活方式有很大影响;因此,想拥有健康生活的人们要考虑到这个因素。)可知,女性应更加注意她们的伴侣对她们的影响。故A选项正确。而D选项是文章第二句直接告知,并不是推理出的。故该题正确答案为A.

【5】C主旨大意题。选项C幽默风趣,且切中文章要义,故该题正确答案为C.
