IV. 阅读理解 (15×2’)

For many years, no one could communicate with people who had been born without hearing. These deaf people were not able to use a spoken language.

　　　 But, beginning in the 1700s, the deaf were taught a special language. Using this language, they could share thoughts and ideas with others. The language they used was a language without sound. It was a sign language.

　　　How did this sign language work? The deaf were taught to make certain movements using their hands, faces, and bodies. These movements stood for things and ideas. People might move their forefingers across their lips. This meant, “You are not telling the truth.” They might tap their chins with three fingers. This meant “my uncle.”

　　　 The deaf were also taught to use a finger alphabet. They used their fingers to make the letters of the alphabet. In this way, they spelled out words. Some deaf people could spell out words at a speed of 130 words per minute.

　　　 Sign language and finger spelling are not used as much as they once were. Today, the deaf are taught to understand others by watching their lips. They are also taught how to speak.

51. The deaf “talked” to other people __________.

A. by moving their hands, faces and bodies　　　

B. by shouting and singing　　　　　　　　　　　　

C. without using any letters　　

D. without using any language

52. From the text we learn that __________.

A. deaf people make signs to earn a living　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

B. there is still no way to communicate with the deaf　

C. sign language helped the deaf learn to communicate　

D. all deaf people now can speak

53. The deaf could spell out words __________.

A. by reading them aloud

B. by going here and there

C. by expressing the letters with their fingers

D. by watching others

54. Now, the deaf are trained to __________.

A. write sentences quickly

B. understand others by lip-reading

C. be good at mind-reading

D. keep alone happily

55. The story as a whole is about __________.

A. learning to spell　　　　　　　　　　　　　B. teaching the deaf to speak　　

C. how the deaf communicate　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　D. understanding Indian sign language

Will It Matter if I Skip Breakfast ?

If you have to miss one meal a day (or if you want to do so), which meal will cause you fewest health problems if you don’t eat it? If they have to make a decision of this type, most people (especially dieters or very busy people) will choose to skip breakfast.

However, many experts in the field of health consider breakfast (the meal which “breaks” your “fast” which started the night before) to be most important meal of the day. If we eat a good breakfast, they say, we will have the energy and nutrients we need to begin our working day with vigor and hopefully with good humor . Nevertheless, many people skip breakfast or substitute a donut and a cup of coffee for a well-balanced meal. What happens if we ignore the importance of breakfast?

　 One recent study carried out in the United Sates tested a large number of people. Participants (people who take part in something) included both males and females who ranged in age from 12 to 83. During the experiment , these people were given a variety of breakfast , and sometimes, they had to skip breakfast completely .Special tests , including blood tests and endurance (忍耐力) tests, were set up to analyze how well the participants’ bodies functioned when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast.

The results showed that if he or she eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work more efficiently and more productively than if he or she skips breakfast or eats a very poor breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person’s work involves mental activity. The study showed that if school children eat fruit, eggs, bread, and milk before going to school, they will learn more quickly and will be able to concentrate on their lessons for a longer period of time than if their breakfast diet is improper .

The study also showed that, contrary to what many people believe, if you skip breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry if they skip breakfast that they eat too much for lunch and end up gaining weight instead of losing . So remember, if you are on a diet ,skipping breakfast will not help you .You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

56. In the word “ breakfast” fast probably means _____.

A．“moving quickly “　　　 B．“going without food”　　

C．“unlikely to go fast “　　 D．“fast food”

57. Many experts in the field of health think __________________.

A. that one must miss one meal a day

B. that most people should skip breakfast

C. that to skip one meal a day is no good for one’s health

D. that breakfast is most important in a working day

58. According to the passage those participants in the experiment _____________________.

A．were all adults　　　　　　　　　　　 B．were males of different ages

C．ere both teenagers and grown-ups　 D．were mostly young people under 20

59. During the experiment, these people were given ____________, and sometimes they had to skip breakfast completely.

A．different kinds of breakfast　　 B．very good breakfasts

C．proper breakfasts　　　　　　 D．all kinds of meals

60.　 Special tests were set up to analyze how the participants’ bodies functioned when ____________.

A．they had skipped breakfast　　　　　　 B．they had had breakfast

C．they had eaten particular breakfasts　　　D．they had had all three meals
