共享题干题                                            (一)The Weight Experiment根据材料,回答下列问题。     Nicola Walters has been taking part in experiments in Scotland to discover why humans gainand lose weight. Being locked in a small room called a" calorimeter"(热量测量室)s one way to find out.     (1)The signs above the two rooms read simply "Chamber One" and "Chamber Two". These are the calorimeters: 4m by 2m white-walled rooms where human volunteers are locked up in the name of science. Outside these rooms another sign reads" Please do not enter--work in progress" and in front of the rooms advanced machinery registers every move the volunteers make. Each day, meals measured to the last gram are passed through a hole in the wall of the calorimeter to the resident volunteer.    (2)Nicola Waiters is one of twenty volunteers who, over the past eight months, have spent varying periods inside the calorimeter. Tall and slim, Nicola does not have a weight problem, but thought the strict diet might help With her training and fitness programme. As a self-employed munity dance worker, she was able to fit the experiment in around her work. She saw an advert for volunteers at her local gym and as she is interested in the whole area of diet and exercise, she thought she would help out.    (3)The experiment on Nicola involved her'spending one day on a fixed diet at home and the next in the room. This sequence was repeated four times over six weeks. She arrived at the calorimeter at 8:30 am on each of the four mornings and from then on. everything she ate or drank was carefully measured. Her every move was noted too, her daily exercise routine, timed to the last second.At regular intervals, after eating, she filled in forms about how hungry she felt and samples were taken for analysts.     (4)The scientists help volunteers impose a kind of order on the long days they face in the room."The first time, I only took one video and a book, but it was OK because I watched TV the rest of the time," says Nicola. And twice a day she used the exercise bike. She pedaled (踩踏板)for half an hour, watched by researchers to make sure she didn't go too fast.    (5)It seems that some foods encourage you to eat more, while others satisfy you quickly. Volunteers are already showing that high-fat diets are less likely to make you feel full. Believing that they may now know what encourages people to overeat, the researchers are about to start testing a high-protein weight-loss diet. Volunteers are required and Nicola has signed up for further sessions.1.[不定向选择题]The machinery outside the calorimeters records everything________A.the volunteers do B.because she does not have a weight problem C.because the life there can bevery boring D.make people overeatE.because she was her own boss.F.after passing a high-protein testABCDEF确定 2.[不定向选择题]Paragraph 1________A.What does the calorimeter look like inside?

1.参考答案:A
参考解析:此句的意思是实验室外面的机器都记录了什么?根据第一段的介绍,显然是志愿者所做的各种活动的情况等,故选A。
2.参考答案:C
参考解析:本文的主题是体重实验,主要谈哪些活动可以减轻人的体重。实验室里有专门的热量测量室。第一段主要介绍热量测量室的有关情况,选项C的意思是“热量测量室是什么?”作为第一段的小标题最合适,故选C。3.[不定向选择题]Paragraph 4________A.What does the calorimeter look like inside? B.What program was designed for the experiment? C.What is a calorimeter? D.What is the first impression?E.How do the volunteers kill the time?F.Why did Nicola join in the experiments?ABCDEF确定
