文章分析

本文是一篇有关肥胖与健康关系新说法的议论文。第一段引出作者对身材的见解：并不是越瘦就证明人

越健康，第二段中作者简介了一种定义肥胖症日勺指标BML,第三段中作者指出BMI其实揭示内是人体H勺脂肪

量，并不是阐明身材好坏的指数。第四段中讲述了整个社会其实会给肥胖者贴上消极标签，无论是在电视节

目中还是在孩子们欧I心目中，胖人的形象总是与消极联络起来。最终一段讲述了人们以健康的角度去考虑肥

胖的影响，和已经采用的J某些对抗肥胖口勺种种方略。

试题解析

【译文】太瘦也不总是好事。某些研究已经得出结论：正常体重H勺人实际上比某些超重的人更轻易患上某些

疾病。有些肥胖对健康尚有保护作用。例如稍微超重的女性跟消瘦H勺女性相比，不易受到钙质缺乏H勺影响。

同样H勺，在老年人中，一定程度上超重是身体健康的标志。

I.

[A]denied否认

[B]concluded得出结论

©doubled两倍,加倍努力

[D]ensured保证

【答案】B

【考点】词义辨析

【直击答案】空格所在句意为“•系列H勺研究已经________,实际上，正常体重的人患病风险要高于超重H勺

人”。根据句义，背面的部分实际上是研究结论，因此B项concluded符合题意。

【命题思绪】本题根据上下文所给信息判断答案，同步也考察考生对相近含义的词汇辨析。

【干扰排除】A项denied“否认”，与原文意义相反;C项doubled“翻倍”，与题意较远;D项ensured“保

证”，不符合题意，由于研究不能保证背面的事实，只能得出背面口勺事实作为结论。

2.

[A]prolective防护的J,保护的I

[B]dangerous危险的I

[C]sufficient足够时，充足的

[D]troublesome麻烦的

【答案】A

【考点】词义辨析

【直击答案】空格所在句意为“对于某些健康状况，超重实际上是有“。根据前文研究的结论，下

文口勺举例阐明是对该句的详细论述。综上可知，超重能减少罹患疾病H勺风险，阐明超重具有一定H勺保护作

用。

【命题思绪】本题根据上下文所给信息判断答案，同步也考察考生对形容词日勺辨析。

【干扰排除】句首以And开头，阐明在语义上该句与上一句是并列有关日勺，强调肥胖对健康的好处。B

项dangerous"危险口勺”，与文章意思相反；C项sufficient“充足口勺"，D项troublesome"麻烦的!"，不符合

题意。

3.

[A]Instead替代，反而

[B]However然而，不管怎样

[C]Likewise同样地

[DITherefore因此

【答案】C

【考点】逻辑关系

【直击答案】第四、五句话举例阐明。“体重较重的女人患缺钙II勺比例低于较瘦的女人。,在老年

人中，一定程度上超重是身体健康的需要填入的是和前半句表达顺接口勺词语。A项Inslead和B

项However表达逆接B、J句意关系，D项Therefore表达因果关系。只有C项Likewise“同样地；也，并且“，

表达顺接关系，符合题意。

【命题思绪】本题考察对上下文语义关系的理解。

【干扰排除】这个题目的难点在于为何不能将最终一句理解为跟上文相反口勺转折关系呢，例如：然而，在老

年人中，一定程度上超重是身体健康的（克星/障碍），不过下文的第四个空给的备选词并没有类似括号里我们

猜测H勺消极含义词汇，因此，所猜测H勺转折语义关系也不成立，只能选表达顺接关系的词汇likewise。

4.

[A]indicaior指标

[B]objective目H勺

[CJorigin来源

[DJexample实例；例证

【答案】A

【考点】词义辨析

【直击答案】空格所在句意为“同样H勺，一定程度上超重，常常是健康H勺”。根据前面的文章内

容，已经明确指出超重代表了健康，因此超重是健康的指标。因此对H勺答案为A项。

【命题,机绪】本题考察对卜下文语义H勺对H勺把握。

【干扰排除】干扰性强的是B项，有考生会将其理解为“客观物质”，但原文构造中此处需要•种名词，

objective“客观的”是形容词，objective作名词时意为“目的”,另有考生被形近词objection“反对”干扰。
