54.D。细节理解题。许多妇女想当然地认为维他命是一种食物的代替品。文中第四段提到

“As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that

vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.”。

53.A。细节理解题。a fruitless search 意思为“没有结果的努力”，文中第四段谈到“试图寻

找一种可以包治百病，又能使你成为超人的食谱是徒劳的”。因此，a fruitless search表示毫

无结果的努力。fruitless的引申意义为没有结果的，徒劳的。

52.B。推理判断题。橘汁和橘汁饮料的区别在于橘汁是自然的，有营养的，是直接从橘子中

来的。橘汁和橘汁饮料的区别在第二自然段中曾经谈到过，即橘汁饮料“contains only a small

percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water”(只包含很少比例的真正橘汁

--其他大都是加了色素的糖水)。因此，相对而言，橘汁是natural, nutritious and prepared

from oranges(天然的、有营养的、直接从橘子中来的健康饮料)。

51.C。推理判断题。从第一自然段可以知道职业妇女忙，对做饭不感兴趣，从第一段的“have

饭)，可以看出C项正确。

50. B。推理判断题。根据第五自然段，此种人心理素质好，清楚地知道自己的优缺点。坚持正确的主张不是固执。

C(words:263&233)

How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian(营养专家)Barhara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.

“Go for nutrient dense foods,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient dense ones are so superior,” she emphasizes.

Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life - it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.

According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.

“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat - they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match, the spark, for the fuel,” she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”
