Question

Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experi­ment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.

Opposite to(與.....相反) what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

試題分析：文章介紹了一個對不吃早飯人人的影響的研究。

1.D 細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段3,4行these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all說明D正確。

2.A 推理題。通過文章第一段最后5行The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.說明吃早飯對人的影響是很大的，故A正確。

3.A 推理題。根據(jù)第二段第一行Opposite to(與.....相反) what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight.說明很多人原來以為不吃早飯可以減肥。實際上比吃早飯，并不能達到減肥的目的。故A正確。

4.C 推理題。根據(jù)文章最后一句You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.說明不吃早飯不會讓人減肥，但是不吃中飯和晚飯卻可以讓人減肥，故C的說法是錯誤的。
