有依據(jù)的。

5、Researcherssaythatsupplementscancompletelytaketheplaceofrealfoodinthe

nearfuture.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

標準答案：C

知識點。析：分析判斷題。通讀全文，我們只發(fā)現(xiàn)"補充品不能代替真正食物”的描

述，文章根本沒有“補充品在不久的將來代替真正食物'’的預言。

標準答案：richincalcium

知識點解析：在本文的第二大部分(Bone—BuildingFoods)的第一句話就提到：“The

roadtostrongbonesispavedwithcalcium-richfood."。這表明：要想具有強壯的骨

骼，你就應該吃含鈣高的食物。

10、Calciumpermitscellstodivide,regulatesmusclecontractionandrelaxation,and

playsanimportantroleinthemovementofproteinandnutrientsinsidecellsbesides

helping.

標準答案：tokeepyourbonesstrong

知識點解析：在本文的第二大部分(Bone—BuildingFoods)的第二段就提到：“Your

bodyusescalciumformerethankeepingyourbonesstrong.Calciumpermitscellsto

divide句中的劃線部分與本小題意思一樣，只是換用了句型而已。

11、Calcium-richfooditssupplementsbecauseitalsoprovidesothernutrients

likevitaminDandotherminerals.

標準答案：haveanadvantageover

知識點解析：在本文的第二大部分（Bone—BuildingFoods）的最后一句話中說到：如

果你發(fā)現(xiàn)你食物中很難包含足夠的鈣質，那么就向你的醫(yī)生咨詢補充品；如果你依

賴補充品（取代飽含鈣質的飲食），那就不能得益于該食物所提供的其他營養(yǎng)。

D、onceandforall

標準答案：B

知識點解析：本題考的是習語。習語“onceinabluemoon”的意思是“千載難逢地”,

與“onceforalongtime”基本同義。在閱讀理解中做語義題?定要結合習語所在的句

了以及短文的上下文。本文最后段訓I：的是ConniePiall這樣?個特例，像她這

樣成功的情況是極少的，即像這樣的機會是千載難逢的。只要準確地理解上下文，

這樣的語義題是不難做的。allatonce指“突然，忽然”；onceinawhile指“偶爾，

不時地”；onceandforall指“永久地，一勞永逸地
