第1篇 Losing Weight
1.D 文章第二段中的第一句和第四段中的第一句先后提到，接受调查之女孩中的绝大多数体重都在健康范围内。
2.C 文章的第二段提到，有将近三分之一的女孩认为自己超重。
3.C 文章的第二段提到，接受调查的是年龄为10岁至14岁的女孩。
4.B 文章的第三段提到，主要研究人员McVey女士在一家医院工作。
5.A 文章的第六段提到，有关体重、身体形象和食品等的不健康态度使得一些女孩子面临饮食失调的危险。
第2篇 Mother knows the best？
1.B.分析：结合刚才了解到的文章的主题判断A(段落最后都没有提到谁应该留在家里)和C(原文提到“我和主持人交谈”，因此判断作者不是电视台的人)都与文章内容不一致，段落中间(第2句)提到了“money”因此推测B是答案。答案相关句：I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay-at-home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife. (越来越多的爸爸留在家里可能是因为男人不一定比女人赚钱多)
2. B.分析：利用题干中的their son和eight years ago作为答案线索，这样发现答案相关句：(第3段)I was a stay-at-home father for eight years， so his declaration made me bristle. (It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a better “parent” than my wife. (第4段)…。I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better”parent： She had spent more time with Ry， could read him better and calm him down quickly.) …But as she was more employable one， my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.
该划线句直接揭示答案B(他的妻子找工作更容易)
3. B/C.分析：借助被选项中的核心词/结构(spending more time， school， reading stories， calm him down)作为答案线索，这样发现这些结构大部分都集中在以下的句子中：I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better”parent： She had spent more time with Ry， could read him better and calm him down quickly.对比被选项判断B/C没有出现，所以B/C是答案。
4. C. 分析：借助常识猜测答案可能是C.也可以借助原文：注意文章中提到“妇女擅长。。/good at”的结构，这样发现答案相关句：(第5段)Women are good at looking after their children because they do it. It is not because of any innate female aptitude or a mother’s instinct – which I think is mostly learned anyway. It’s because they put in the time and attention required to be good at the job.划线句内容直接揭示了C(妇女花了更多的时间和孩子在一起)是答案。
5. C.分析：在文章的结尾处发现句子： Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing， but over the long term experience is more important. (该划线句的内容与C一致：长期照顾孩子的经验更为重要) I was good， too. As good？ I don’t know， who cares？ Children are not made of glasses. Other people are capable of looking after them besides Mom.
