An alcohol breath test (ABT) is often used by the police to find out whether a person is drunk while driving.In the United States，the legal blood alcohol limit is 0.08% for people aged 21 years or older，while people under 21 are not allowed to drive a car with any level of alcohol in their body.A “positive” test result，a result over the legal limit，allows the police to arrest the driver.However，many people who tested positive on the test have claimed that they only drank a “non­alcoholic” energy drink.Can one of these energy drinks really cause someone to test positive on an ABT？Researchers in Missouri set up an experiment to find out.
First，the amount of alcohol in 27 different popular energy drinks was measured.All but one had an alcohol level greater than 0.005%.In nine of the 27 drinks，the alcohol level was at least 0.096%.The scientists then investigated the possibility that these small levels of alcohol could be discovered by an ABT.They asked test subjects to drink a full can or bottle of an energy drink and then gave each subject an ABT one minute and 15 minutes after the drink was finished.
For 11 of the 27 energy drinks，the ABT did find the presence of alcohol if the test was given within one minute after the drink was taken.However，alcohol could not be discovered for any of the drinks if the test was given 15 minutes after the drink was consumed.This shows that when the test is taken plays an important role in the test result.The sooner the test is conducted after the consumption of these drinks，the more likely a positive alcohol reading will be obtained.

【2016高考英语阅读理解训练】阅读下面短文，选择最佳答案。

Leaders of the World Health Organization say they are concerned about the air quality and health efiects on citizens during a recent outbreak of heavy pollution in Beijing．Still，they said they were unsure of the exact amount the air pollution takes on any person’s body，casting doubts on local reports tying the area’s dirty air to particular cases of illness．
Speaking at a briefing(情况介绍会)on Tuesday，the WHO’s Western Pacific regional director，Shin Young—Soo，cited(列举)reports about poor air quality causing lung cancer in recent weeks.
“The WHO is skeptical of the information，”she said．“We’re cautious of whether the illness is related to air po11ution. We know it has an impact on health，but we don’t know how much．”
The officials didn’t cite particular reports．The comments follow a number of articles since last year connecting some cases of diseases like lung cancer with pollution，．including one in November regarding an 8-year-old girl．
The health impact of Beijing’s gray skies has been on the minds of many over the past week。

Local authorities on Tuesday preserved an orange alert(警报)一the city’s second highest pollution-warning level—and again warned people to stay indoors．Experts widely agree that small particulates(颗粒) known as PM2.5 carry significant short-and long-term health risks，particularly with children．Other
studies find a certain link between pollution and shorter life spans。

Chinese state media have noted a rise in cancer levels in Beijing,without specifying(具体说明) whether the new cases are the main result of pollution,smoking,other sources or some combination．Bernhard Schwartlander，the organization’s China chief，said he is concerned and has been in contact with national authorities．“There is no easy solution,”Dr. Schwartlainder said，adding that solving the problem requires managing industry and the economy．WHO leaders advised
citizens．to stay indoors and limit exposure to the harmful particulates．When asked if wearing a face mask has any proven efficacy in preventing health effects of air pollution，Dr. Schwartlainder said，“Whatever you do，it’s better than nothing.”
1．We can learn from the passage that .
A．in case of an orange alert, we had better not go outside
B．the case of the girl with lung cancer was little’ linked to air pollution
C．cancer levels in Beijing are rising due to heavy air pollution D．it is widely agreed that pollution shortens life spans very slightly
2．According to Dr．Schwartlander，the ways to solve the problem include .

Jeannette Brandt was bike riding near Hadley，in the southern Adirondacks of New York，a few weeks ago when she spotted an injured monarch butterfly and took it home in an empty water bottle.Brandt and her partner，Mike Parwana，fed the butterfly rotting pears and water sweetened with honey.The butterfly survived，and fattened up.But what to do about the broken wing? The couple found an online video demonstrating butterfly wing repair which was posted by the nonprofit Live Monarch Foundation of Boca Raton，Florida.Tiny cardboard splints and contact cement did the trick.In another week，the butterfly was flying at the couple's home.But by then，it was too cold in upstate New York to release the monarch into the wild.Monarchs are known for their 3,000 miles migration from Canada to
Mexico.But this migration is usually finished by the end of October，and it was mid­November.
About a week ago，the couple put the monarch in a shoebox and went to Scotty's，a truck stop north of Albany，NY.Eventually，a good­natured trucker from Alabama，who was headed to Florida，volunteered to transport the monarch to the Sunshine st Tuesday，the trucker called.The butterfly with the mended wing had been released in Florida，now free to join millions of other monarch butterflies migrating south to the mountains of central Mexico.

Mankind evolved to possess the fight­or­flight stress response，allowing us to survive in a dangerous world.Yet in today's man­made jungle，it has become one of our greatest killers.
Even simple tasks，such as driving to work，are often compounded by emotional responses: expletives hurled，fists shaken in anger and aggressive threats made toward other drivers.We forget to turn off our nature and instead allow stress，anger and frustration to take physical control of our bodies.
Why Stress，Anger and Frustration are Problematic
The problem with stress and anger in the modern world is that most stressful or frustrating scenaries do not require an active physical response.There are no lions or tigers to escape，only imaginary ones.Our inactivity in the face of stress or frustration causes most of us not to recognize that our fight­or­flight response system has been started.Our bodies often exist in a state of constant panic，and the chemicals and hormones released into the blood become toxic，resulting in heart disease，arthritis，osteoporosis，diabetes and certain cancers.The_biological_response_that_has_helped_to_keep_us_from_bec oming_prey_for_thousands_of_years_is_now_preying_upon_us.
How to Keep Stress，Anger and Frustration from Killing You
The first thing to do in the battle against stress and anger is to recognize them.Recognizing triggers and physical responses to stressful situations can help you reduce them.Once you recognize that a stressful situation has triggered a physiological response，the best way to bring the body back into a homeostatic_state is through physical activity.Walking，running，biking，jumping or any energetic activity will help bring the body back into equilibrium.While it may seem strange to do 100 jumping jacks after a stressful meeting or go for a jog after getting into an argument with your wife，it can save your life.It only
feels unnatural because our environment is unnatural.Don't let stress，anger or frustration eat at you.Fight back through exercise.
Notes：
①frustration n．挫折②equilibrium n．平衡
长短句分析：Our bodies often exist in a state of constant panic，and the chemicals and hormones released into the blood become toxic，resulting in heart disease，arthritis，osteoporosis，diabetes and certain cancers.
句法点睛：and前后为顺承关系，resulting是动名词形式作结果状语。

句意：我们的身体常常处于一种持续的恐慌状态，这使得化学物质和释放入血液中的荷尔蒙变得有毒，从而导致心脏病、关节炎、骨质疏松症、糖尿病和某些癌症。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了面对压力、愤怒和挫折，人们最佳的应对方法——进行体育活动。

A．Our biological response is not as useful as before.
B．There is something wrong with our biological response.

D．Our biological response now makes us the prey of other livings.答案 C [推理判断题。
