【2016高考训练】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

In rainy London, always carry your “brolly”
BIG Ben，the Queen，a plate of ham and eggs-no, no, no. If you’re looking for a symbol of Britain，only one thing passes the test-the umbrella.
Now, I know what you’re thinking—we have rain in China and we have umbrellas too. Certainly, I will never forget the way it rained when I lived in Beijing：the sweets became instant rivers and the sky flashed with lightning for hours on end. People dove for cover under bin bags, the shops were emptied of their plastic ponchos(斗篷)within seconds，and I found myself soaked(浸透)from head to foot, my poorly-chosen skirt and T-shirt now totally see-through. This would never have happened in Britain.
For one thing, during my year in Beijing, it only really rained at about 10 times.
But although we never get a Beijing-style washout in London, the drizzle(毛毛雨)that does fall is all but constant．Even when the sky is perfectly blue, you can be sure it's going to cloud over and start drizzling again within the hour.
And when it does, there is chaos. Trains stop, drains(下水道)block, and buses break down as if this was the first time the local authorities had seen this wet stuff coming out of the clouds. So—as with so many things in the UK-it’s up to ordinary people to sort themselves out. No self-respecting Briton will ever leave home w ithout his “brolly” --as the umbrella is affectionately(亲切地)known.
A brolly has hundreds of uses, even on rare rain-free days. A real gentleman of London will use his umbrella as a walking stick. A traditional game of cricket can be played using an umbrella as a hat. Nor do you ever have to be afraid of robbers-your umbrella doubles as a defensive weapon. There is no brolly more British than my own．But it's not from London or Manchester or any where in the UK. It was a gift from my Chinese teacher—in Beijing．
1. The author mentioned her rainy weather experience in Beijing to show that _____.
A. many foreigners have embarrassing moments living in Beijing
B. the rain in Beijing is usually much heavier than the rain in London
C. British people are more used to rainy weather than Chinese people
D. both Beijing and Londoners have unpleasant experience with sudden rain
2．The underlined word “this” in the second paragraph refers to _____.
A. people getting extremely wet on rainy days
B. sudden rain leading to traffic troubles
C. people being well-prepared on rainy days
D. it only raining a dozen times per year
3．The underlined word “chaos” in paragraph 5 probably means _____.
A. doubt
B. excitement
C. joy D．disorder
4．The tone of the articles is _____.
A. humorous
B. optimistic
C. objective
D. annoyed
参考答案1—4、CADA
【广东省华南师范大学附属中学、广东实验中学、深圳中学、广雅中学四校2016届高三上学期期末联考】People
with an impulsive personality refer to those who tend to do things without considering the possible dangers or problems first. According to a new study by researchers at the University of Georgia, such people may be more likely to have food addiction. The study found that people exhibiting impulsive behavior weren’t necessarily overweight, but im pulsiveness was related to a direct relationship with food, and therefore, less healthy weight.
Food addiction has been compared to addictive drug use. Studies have linked the dopamine (多巴胺) release that occurs after tasting delicious food to the dopamine release that happens when people consume other addictive substances.
Impulsive behavior involves several personality traits (特点). Two of these traits, known as negative urgency and lack of perseverance, were particularly associated with food addiction and high BMI (身体质量指数) during the study.
Negative urgency is characterized by the tendency to behave impulsively when experiencing negative emotions. Some people might drink alcohol or take drugs. For others, it could mean eating to feel better. Lack of perseverance is when a person has a hard time finishing hard or boring tasks. People with a lack of perseverance might have difficulty attempting to change addictive eating behavior, which could also cause obesity.
“Impulsiveness might be one reason why some peop le eat in an addictive way despite motivation to lose weight,” said Dr. Ashley Gearhardt, a clinical psychologist. He was involved in developing the Yale Food Addiction Scale in aid of those people. “We are theorizing that if food addiction is really a thing, then our measure, the Yale Food Addiction Scale, should be related to helping control impulsive action,” said Gearhardt.
Clinical psychologist Dr. James MacKillop, whose lab was conducting the study, believes that therapies used to treat addictive drug behavior could help people who suffer from addictive eating habits.
“Most of the programs for weight loss at this point focus on the most obvious things, which are clearly diet and exercise,” MacKillop said. “It seems that managing strong desires to eat would naturally fit in with the skills a person would need to eat healthily.”
12. According to Paragraph 1, the result of food addiction is ________.
A. less healthy weight
B. motivation to lose weight
C. negative emotions
D. taking alcohol or drugs
13. How does the author introduce the two personality traits in Paragraph 4?
A. By making comparisons and conclusions.
B. By explaining causes and effects.
C. By presenting questions and answers.
D. By giving definitions and examples.
14. What can be inferred about the Yale Food Addiction Scale from the text?
A. It has been successfully carried out among overweight people.
B. It might help some impulsive people with food addiction to lose weight.
C. It will prove whether food addiction is a problem to impulsive people.
D. It is theoretically a proper treatment for addictive food and drug behavior.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Dopamine release caused by food addiction
B. Food addiction compared to drug use
C. Impulsive personality linked to food addition
D. Food addiction contributing to obesity 【答案】
12A
13D
14B
15C
【解析】
试题分析：本文属于科普说明文，一项新的研究显示性格冲动的人很可能会有食物成瘾的行为，同时在文章中作者还介绍了人们对于这两者之间联系的研究。

12. A 推理判断题。

根据第一段最后一句The study found that people exhibiting impulsive behavior weren’t necessarily overweight, but impulsiveness was related to a direct relationship with food, and therefore, less healthy weight.可知研究说明冲动的人不一定就会超重，但是冲动和食物是有关系的，所谓的食物有关系，也就是说有不健康的体重问题有关。

故A正确。

13. D 推理判断题。

根据第四段第一句Negative urgency is characterized by the tendency to behave impulsively when experiencing negative emotions.和第四段第三句Lack of perseverance is when a person has a hard time finishing hard or boring tasks.可知这两句是Negative urgency 和Lack of perseverance 两个概念的定义。

同时本段2、3句Some people might drink alcohol or take drugs. For others, it could mean eating to feel better.和最后一句People with a lack of perseverance might have difficulty attempting to change addictive eating behavior, which could also cause obesity给出的是这两个概念的例子。

所以作者是通过定义和举例来介绍这两个定义的。

故D正确。

15. C 标题概括题。

本题属于主旨大意题中的标题概括题，根据第一段第二句According to a new study by researchers at the University of Georgia, such people may be more likely to have food addiction.一项新的研究显示性格冲动的人很可能会有食物成瘾的行为。

在后几段中介绍了人们对于这两者之间联系的研究。

所以C项“Impulsive personality linked to food addition”与文章主题一致。

考点：考查科普说明文阅读。
