核心素养测评七 Module 1 Our Body and Healthy Habits
Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
(2020·蚌埠模拟)
Knowing which of these statements have been proved by SCIENCE — and which are MYTHS (谬论) — could improve your health. Here are some health facts your doctor wants you to know.
Not all heart attacks have a symptom (症状) of chest pain.
Truth! A 2012 study of more than 1. 1 million heart attack patients found that 31 percent of men and 42 percent of women didn’t have any chest pain before being hospitalized. Call 911 for other symptoms, too, including shortness of breath, light-headedness, and pain elsewhere in the upper body.
You do not need eight glasses of water every day.
Truth! There is not any scientific evidence that eight is the magic number. You might need more or less than that, depending on factors (因素) such as climate and body size. To make sure you are getting enough, just drink water throughout the day.
You need less sleep as you get older.
Myth! Older adults often sleep less as a result of serious conditions that are more common with age as well as the drugs used to treat them. But that doesn’t mean they require less sleep. While sleep needs vary from person to person, most adults should get at least seven hours of sleep for health.
Reading in dim (昏暗的) light will harm your eyes.
Myth! It might tire your eyes in the short term, but there’s no evidence that it will do any lasting damage. When reading, position light to shine directly on the page rather than from over your shoulder to reduce unpleasant bright light.
【文章大意】这是一篇应用文。作者在文中向大家分别澄清了四条传言的真假, 同时给出了科学的解释。
1. Which of the following has been proved to be true?
10
A. You are in need of much less sleep as you get older.
B. Reading in dim light does lasting damage to your eyes.
C. Some heart attacks don’t have a symptom of chest pain.
D. You must get more than eight glasses of water every day.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。通过文中四个小标题及小标题下对应的“Truth! (事实)”“Myth! (虚构的事)”即可确定答案。第一个小标题“Not all heart attacks have a symptom of chest pain. ”意为: 不是所有的心脏病都有胸痛的症状, 也就是说有一些心脏病没有胸痛的症状。故C选项正确。
2. According to the text, what may be the result of using drugs?
A. Heart attacks. B. Weak eyes.
C. Less sleep. D. Shortness of breath.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第三个小标题下“Older adults often sleep less as a result of serious conditions that are more common with age as well as the drugs used to treat them. ”可知, 年龄大一点的成年人常常睡得少, 一方面是由更为常见的严重老年疾病导致的, 一方面与用来治疗这些疾病的药物有关。由此可知, 使用药物有可能导致睡得少。故C选项正确。
3. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To inform. B. To entertain.
C. To advertise. D. To praise.
【解析】选A。写作意图题。由文章第一段中的“Here are some health facts your doctor wants you to know. (以下是一些医生想要你知道的关于健康的事实。)”可知, 这篇文章目的是想给大家普及一些健康知识。故A选项正确。
【知识拓展】长难句分析
Older adults often sleep less as a result of serious conditions that are more common with age as well as the drugs used to treat them.
分析: 本句是主从复合句。that are more common with age是定语从句, 修饰conditions; used to treat them是过去分词短语作后置定语, 修饰drugs。
翻译: 老年人经常因为更为常见的严重老年疾病和治疗这些疾病的药物而睡眠不足。

After a morning hike in the Saneum Healing Forest, 46-year-old firefighter Kang
10
Byoung-wook has tea made from the bark of an elm tree, practices yoga (瑜伽), and makes a picture with dried flowers. He is one of 40 firefighters taking part in a three-day program, the aim of which is to offer “forest healing” (森林治愈); the firefighters all have posttraumatic stress disorder(创伤后应激障碍).
Saneum is one of three official healing forests in Republic of Korea. Soon there will be 34 more. Republic of Koreans—many of whom suffer from work stress, digital addiction, and great academic pressure have accepted the medicalization of nature with great enthusiasm.
There is increasing evidence that being outside in a pleasant natural environment is good for us. But how many of us get to enjoy nature regularly? Fewer and fewer, it seems. According to Lisa Nisbet, a psychology professor at Canada’s Trent University, evidence for the benefits of nature is pouring in at a time when we are most disconnected from it.
“We don’t think of being outdoors as a way to increase happiness, ” says Nisbet. “We think other things will, like shopping or TV. ”But Republic of Korea is starting to challenge this opinion.
So what are some of the benefits of nature that Nisbet refers to? Being surrounded by nature has one obvious effect: It calms us and reduces our stress levels. This has been shown to lower blood pressure and heart rates.
Another experiment conducted by psychologist Stephen Kaplan found that people who took a 50-minute walk in a park had better attention and short-term memory than those who took a walk along a city street.
Perhaps what’s more surprising is that nature may also make us more creative. David Strayer, a psychologist at the University of Utah, showed as much with a group of participants, who performed 50 percent better on creative problem-solving tasks after three days of wilderness backpacking.
In fact, we may never know exactly what nature does to the brain. Something mysterious will always remain, and maybe that’s as it should be.
【文章大意】本文主要介绍了森林治愈和大自然对人类健康的作用。
4. What is Kang Byoung-wook doing?
10
A. Getting lost in nature.
B. Building up his strength.
C. Trying to control a forest fire.
D. Helping firefighters under stress.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第一段内容Kang Byoung-wook has tea made from the bark of an elm tree, practices yoga, and makes a picture with dried flowers可知, Kang Byoung-wook正在接受森林治愈: 品茶、做瑜伽、做手工。 他完全沉浸在大自然之中。故选A。
5. What benefit of nature did Stephen Kaplan find?
A. It affects people’s feelings.
B. It lowers the risks of diseases.
C. It helps improve mental performance.
D. It does more good than physical exercise.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。由倒数第三段中的. . . had better attention and short-term memory. . . 可知, Stephen Kaplan的研究发现亲近大自然可以提高注意力和短期记忆力, 也就是说提高了大脑的工作效率。故选C。
6. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Your life in forests
B. Your brain on nature
C. The future of forest healing
D. The benefits of a stress-free life
【解析】选B。标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了森林治愈和大自然对于人类健康尤其是大脑工作效率和减缓压力方面的益处, 故B项作标题最符合文章的主旨。故选B。
