2017年福建省泉州市高考英语一模试卷

副标题

一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）

A

Experts predict nine billion people will live on our planet by 2050．They say by that time demand for food will be two times what it is now．Officials are worried about that prediction because many people already suffer from a lack of food．More than 800 million people go to bed hungry．

A solution（解决办法）to the problem may be as close as our forests．A new report says forests could help reduce hunger and improve nutrition if they are properly managed．

Bhaskar Vira is the director of the University of Cambridge Conservation Research Institute and an expert with the International Union of Forest Research Organizations （IUFRO）．It recently released a report at the United Nations about forest and jungle foods．

Mr．Vira says crops that grow on trees can help feed people living in and around forests．"It's like an insurance policy．Having access to those tree-based foods is hugely important when you can't buy food from other sources or when you can't produce food because your fields have failed．"

The report says that forest health and economic value improves when people who live in or near forests are given greater control of them．For example，a project in Ghana aims for proper management of forests and fields together．The people involved hope to grow the Allanblackia plant．The oil from its seed can be used in soap，beauty products and food．Okai Michael Henchard leads the project．He says he will help people who live nearby．He says they earn money and get trees on their land．The trees provide shade and improve air quality．Mr．Henchard says the project also helps fight climate change．

If you're a yoga practitioner（实践者），you've probably noticed the ways yoga works - you're sleeping better，getting fewer colds or just feeling more relaxed and at ease．But if you've ever tried telling a beginner how it works，you might find explanations like "It increases the flow of prana" or "It brings energy up your spine" fall on skeptical ears．

As it happens，Western science is starting to provide some concrete clues as to how yoga works to improve health，heal aches and pains，and prevent sicknesses．Once you understand them，you'll have even more motivation to step onto your mat．

I myself have experienced yoga's healing power in a very real way．Weeks before a trip to India in 2002to investigate yoga therapy，I developed numbness and tingling （刺痛）in my right hand．After first considering scary things like a brain tumor and multiple sclerosis（多发性硬化），I figured out that the cause of the symptoms was thoracic outlet syndrome，a nerve blockage in my neck and chest．

Despite the uncomfortable symptoms，I realized how useful my condition could be during my trip．While visiting various yoga therapy centers，I would submit myself for evaluation and treatment by the various experts，try their suggestions and see what worked for me．Thanks to the techniques I learned in India，advice from teachers in the United States，and my own exploration，my chest is more flexible than it was，my posture has improved，and for more than a year，I've been free of symptoms．

My experience inspired me to dig into the scientific studies I'd collected in India as well as the West to identify and explain how yoga can both prevent disease and help you recover from it．

5.What is the author probably？______

A. A journalist．

B. A salesman．

C. A teacher．

D. A physician．

6.Which will further motivate a yoga beginner to step onto the mat？______
