Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
Vans, Keds, Dollies—they sound like the names of rock bands, but if you have teenagers, you'll know they're actually the latest in teenage footwear. But experts are now warning that the current shoe fashions will be causing teenagers discomfort in the short term and storing up years of foot, knee and back pain in the future.
4
Here, the experts identify the problems caused by teenagers' shoe choice. KEDS/VANS
Slipon shoes with elastic(有弹性的)sides are particularly popular among teenage boys—with Keds and Vans the most soughtafter brands.
The main problem is that they are just too flat—so flat that the heel, which strikes the ground first, also becomes damaged and painful.
BALLET PUMPS
The worst shoes of all are such light and thin dolly shoes. The problem is partly their flatness, as with Keds and Vans. However ballet pumps, which have no string or heel, have other specific problems.
“As the shoe has no fastening device, it relies on the toes to keep the shoe on, causing an awkward gait(步法); this leads to short and longterm problems such as calluses(茧子), heel and knee pain.”
WEDGES AND STILETTOS
These shoes can also cause problems with gait. They may look good, but the heels on these are so high that they can force the wearer's body weight forward, making them very unstable.
Teens who wear these shoes regularly are also in danger of joining those millions of women with constant back pain.
SCHOOL SHOES
So what do podiatrists(足科医生)have on their wish list, especially for everyday wear?
Something in a natural, breathable fabric, with a string to hold it on, with a small heel and a deep toebox that does not press the toes, such as Clark's, Marks & Spencer or Rhino.
If your teen insists on wearing “bad” shoes, get them some simple foot orthotics(矫形器)in the shoes. These support and correct the movement of the foot and, properly fitted by a podiatrist, can often transform their walk and halt the damage.
文章大意：该怎样为孩子们选择健康的鞋子呢？这是一门学问。
1．Of all the shoes mentioned in the passage, which can cause the worst problems? A．Marks & Spencer. B．Wedges & Stilettos. C．Keds and Vans.
5
D．Ballet Pumps.
答案：D 细节理解题。由第五段BALLET PUMPS下介绍可知。
2．Which pair of shoes may NOT be found on the podiatrists' wish list?
答案：B 推理判断题。由第四段介绍可知，Keds and Vans等鞋子的底太平，是不健康的鞋子，所以B项不会是足科医生建议买的那种鞋子。
3．The underlined word “halt” in the last paragraph probably means“________”．
A．increase C．stop
B．worsen D．cure
答案：C 猜测词义题。最后一段介绍在鞋里安矫正器，可以让孩子们改变错误的走法，从而“阻止”了伤害的发生。
4．From this passage we can infer________. A．trendy shoes may ruin teenagers' health B．fashionable shoes all have orthotics in them C．experts are strongly against wearing popular shoes D．podiatrists are expert at producing branded shoes
答案：A 推理判断题。由第二句“But experts are now warning that the current shoe fashions will be causing teenagers discomfort in the short term and storing up years of foot, knee and back pain in the future.”可推知，这些时髦的鞋子会给青少年的健康造成损害。
5．In which column of Mail Online can you find this passage? A．Sports. C．Health.
B．Science. D．Shopping.
6
答案：C 推理判断题。全文讲述了一些时髦品牌的鞋子会给青少年的健康造成损害，并建议我们怎样去做以避免伤害的发生。因此，这是健康话题。
B
Amanda took whatever pills she could get, largely because she was finding life hard to take. “There were a lot of problems，” she says. She had just found out that her parents were splitting(分开). It took her by surprise—and she was shocked. “I woke up one morning, and they told me.”
“On a few occasions during my two years of going to pharming parties(品药聚会), my heart would race so fast that it felt like it was going to explode. I felt weak and confused sometimes and even passed out several times，” she recalls. “But I picked up from the ground because I had a lot of pride in my drinking and drugging. I was really crazy about it and proud of the fact that I could take more than a lot of people.”
Finally, though, things got out of control. “I couldn't go a day without taking something，” she recalls, “and after a while, the pills upset my stomach; it hurt all the time, and I hardly ate. Finally, I couldn't take it any more. I went to my parents and told them I needed help.”
Amanda entered a treatment program and has been calm since her release last January. “Detox(戒瘾) was the worst four days of my entire life，” she says. “I was throwing up all the food and had the shakes.”
She doesn't care about drugs. “I'm so hurt from this，” says Amanda, who has ulcers(溃疡) and damaged kidneys from the drugs and alcohol. “I have to struggle daily to stay calm. But in some ways, I feel lucky I went through it, and I'm out of it now.” Amanda wrote a song called “Goodnight to the Moonlight”. Amanda says, “It's about how it feels to be taking drugs and alcohol, how it hurts, how it makes you feel like you're losing yourself.”
文章大意：Amanda由于父母离异而吸上了毒并成瘾。在父母的帮助下，她艰难却坚定地戒了毒获得了新生。
