Question

Now I know that we black people are much more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes(糖尿病) than white people. And they often lead to heart attacks and other untreated diseases. For example, black people are three to four times more likely than white people to have high blood pressure and twice as likely as the white population to die of a stroke(中風(fēng)).

New research has found out the surprisingly high levels of salt in many of black people’s favorite meals. I stopped putting extra salt in my food at the table long ago and I try to cut down on the salt I use in cooking. The recommended daily level of salt for adults is 6 grams. It is easy to see that if you avoid processed(加工過的) foods and use salt in your cooking within the limit, you won’t exceed the daily level.

The research showed how much salt there is in some foods that we buy from restaurants and takeaways. An average salad with rice and peas has 6.2 grams of salt. This is more salt than you are supposed to eat for the whole day.

A researcher talked about the importance of home cooking rather than take-outs. At home, he pointed out, not only can you hold control of the salt shaker, but also you can create tasty food which is low on salt. The researcher later provided curry goat and rice and peas. They were low on salt, but completely delicious.

I do not suppose Jamaicans are going to stop buying takeaways soon. But if you suffer from high blood pressure, it is probably better not to buy them often.

1.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to ______.

A．white people                          B．black people

3.What would the writer probably suggest black people do?

A．Order no salad in a restaurant.             B．Take in no salt for several days.

C．Stop cooking their favorite meals.           D．Eat less takeaways.

4.The researcher provided curry goat and rice and peas in order to ______.

A．thank those who came to his home for his research

B．let people know that eating less salt makes one healthier

C．show that tasty food with less salt can be made at home

D．prove the less salt the food has the more delicious it is

考點(diǎn)：考查健康類短文閱讀

點(diǎn)評：本文考查推理題較多，推理判斷題不僅要求考生讀懂文章中的每個句子的意思還要推理它們之間的關(guān)系，結(jié)合自己的生活常識和經(jīng)驗(yàn)，再通過邏輯推理和判斷，理解文章的言外之意，從而揭示文章的深層涵義。任何一篇文章都有其特定的寫作目的，讀者應(yīng)當(dāng)知道如何去做或按照某種方式傳遞思考問題。推理判斷題的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理時我們務(wù)必要忠于原文，在文章中尋找并確定可推論的依據(jù)，即：已知部分－推論的前提，從中推測出未知部分－推理的結(jié)論，切忌妄加評論，把自己的觀點(diǎn)當(dāng)成作者的觀點(diǎn)。
