三、阅读判断
Many people believe that tea was first drunk nearly 5.000 years ago. It is said that a
Chinese ruler called Shen Nong was the first to discover tea as a drink. More than 4,000 years later, Lu Yu, “the saint of tea”, mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing. The book describes how tea plants were grown and used to make tea. It also discusses where the finest tea leaves were produced and what kinds of water were used.
It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. In England tea didn’t appear until around 1660. But less than 100 years later, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea.

The World Health Organization(世界卫生组织)says air pollution kills seven millionpeople around the world each year. Even if polluted air does not kill us, it can make us very sick.
However, breathing dirty air may do more than hurt your body. It can also affect (影响)your brain and your ability to think.
A new study shows that air pollution can cause a “huge” reduction(减少) in our intelligence(智商). The researchers reported that the long-term exposure(暴露) to air pollution can affect a person’s mental(智力) abilities in two areas: language and math.
Xi Chen, the researcher of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a person’s education level by about one year.Chen said that the effect (结果)generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, especially for men and for those with little or no education.
“The older persons — they are more affected. And we find, quite interestingly, men are more affected than women. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors.”
The researchers noted that the effect of pollution on language ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated.
Why were language skills more affected than math? There are two main kinds of tissue(组织) in the brain: white matter and grey matter. White matter is more connected with a person’s language skills, while grey matter is connected to our ability to solve math problems. Studies have shown that air pollution has a great effect on the white matter in the brain, but not the grey matter.
Chen said that air pollution did affect the math skills, just not as much as their language skills.
41．Air pollution causes_______million people to die around the world each year.
A．one B．two C．seven D．sixty-four 42．Which is not true according to the passage?
A．Breathing dirty air may hurt your body.
B．Breathing dirty air can affect your brain,
C．Breathing dirty air can affect your ability to think.
D．Breathing dirty air can make your immune system(免疫系统) strong.

你知道吗，每年全世界有七百万人因空气污染而死亡。

脏的空气不仅对我们的身体有害，它还影响我们的大脑和思考的能力。

这篇短文讲述了一个新的研究，表明空气污染会导致我们的智力下降，尤其体现在语言能力和数学能力上，而且对于64岁以上的老年人以及几乎没有受过教育的男性影响更大。

41．细节理解题。

根据短文第一句话The World Health Organization(世界卫生组织)says air pollution kills seven million people around the world each year.可知，据世界卫生组织所说，每年全世界有七百万人因空气污染而死亡。

由此可知应选C 。

42．推理判断题。

根据第二段However, breathing dirty air may do more than hurt your body 可知A 选项是符合文意的；根据第二段It can also affect (影响)your brain and your ability to think.可知B 和C 选项是符合文意的。

由文意可知，脏的空气不仅影响我们的身体，还应选我们的大脑和思考的能力，因此D 选项说“呼吸脏的空气能增强我们的免疫系统”，这句话是错误的。

故选D 。

43．细节理解题。

根据短文第四段中Chen said that the effect (结果)generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, especially for men and for those with little or no education.可知，脏的空气对64岁以上的老人，尤其是几乎没有受过教育的男性影响更大。

由此可知应选B 。

44．推理判断题。

根据文意The researchers noted that the effect of pollution on language ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated.可知，脏的空气对人的语言和数学能力的影响随着人们年龄的增长会更严重，尤其是对几乎没有受过教育的男人，这样的人从事的工作往往是户外的。

因此应选B 。

45．细节理解题。

根据短文的最后Chen said that air pollution did affect the math skills, just not as much as their language skills.可知，空气污染对数学能力的影响相比语言技能的影响要更小。

由此可知应选C 。
