第2部分:阅读判断
16.B【解析】句意:通过辐照去除食物中的害虫和细菌。这已得到美国政府的完全批准。
关键词是approve和US government。依据此关键词,可在文中第一段找到相关叙述:Irradiating fruits,vegetables,pork and chicken to kill insects and bacteria has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration over the past decade.Irradiation of other meats,such as beef and Iamb,is being re- viewed.由being reviewed可推测出,通过辐照去除食物中的害虫和细菌并没有完全通过批准,故此题为“错误”的。
17.B【解析】句意:许多食品加工厂都生产辐照食品。
关键词是a great many和food processors。依据此关键词,可在文中第一段找到相关叙述:few food processors presently offer irradiated products,故此题为“错误”的。

关键词是Irradiated fruits and vegetables和labelled。依据此关键词,可在文中第三段找到相关叙述:in the case of bulk items like fruits and vegetables,by placing a sign nearby,由此可知像蔬菜和水果这样的散装食品也应在旁边标注出辐照食品的字样,故此题为“错误”的。
21.A【解析】句意:餐馆可以供应从经销商那直接购买的辐照食品,无需标注。
关键词是Restaurants、distributors和without labeling,依据这些关键词,可在文中第三段找到相关叙述:There is no requirement for the labeling of irradiated food served by chain restaurants or hospitals that buy directly from distributors,故此题为“正确”的。
22.A【解析】句意:根据这篇文章,食品与药物管理局在某种程度上批准了辐照食品,但辐照食品并没有被广泛接受。
这道题是有关文章主题的题,借助文章的结尾:Presently,the FDA allows food to be treated with three types of radiation(与approves irradiating food to some extent呼应),而文章开头的句意也与该问题句的说法一致。第二段第一句提到many consumers are afraid that eating irradiated foods may cause cancer,由此可见辐照食品还没有被广泛接受,故此题的答案为“正确”的。

44.A【解析】题意:据克罗姆所说,古埃及王国毁灭发生在什么时候?旱灾刚过。
第五段提到“克罗姆推理说在干旱季节,河水中青尼罗河泥浆的量相对较高。他发现了其中一个时期,即4500年到4200年前,恰恰是埃及古王国灭亡之前”,因此可以推断出古埃及王国毁灭发生在旱灾之后。故选A。
45.B【解析】题意:最后一段的单词“devastating”由“damaging”替换最为合适。
此处devastating为形容词,意思是“破坏性的”,其动词是devastate,意思是“使荒芜;破坏”。A项意思是“令人失望的”;B项意思是破坏的.毁坏的;C项为defeat的现在分词形式,动词defeat意思是“击败”;D项意思是“令人担忧的,令人发愁的”。各项中只有B项与devastating意义相近,故选B。第5部分:补全短文
