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 breakfast, 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 effort 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 in class. Contrary to what many people believe , 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 other meals.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文中通过一个实验向大家说明了吃早餐的重要性。

1.主旨大意题。这是一篇说明文，文章第一句就提出了本文要解决的问题“Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast?（你不吃早饭有关系吗？）”，并且由实验结果“The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effort than if he or she has no breakfast.（结果显示如果吃了合适的早餐，他或她就会比不吃早餐的人工作的更努力）”以及“You will probably lose more weight if you reduce other meals.（减少其它饭量你可能会减肥。）”可知，吃早餐时很重要的。结合段首提出的问题以及文中给出的结果可知，本文强调吃饭的重要性。故选A。

2.细节理解题。由文中的“During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all.（在实验中，这些人被给与不同种类的早餐，有时候不给早餐）”可知，参加实验的人员吃不同的早餐或者不吃早餐。故选D。

3.推理判断题。由文中的“Contrary to what many people believe , people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing.（与很多人以为的不同，在中午的时候人们会变的非常饿，以至于午饭吃了太多，结果会变的更重而不是会起到减肥的效果）”可知，人们以为的是与这一结果相反的情况，人们以为不吃早饭就能减肥。故选A。
