2014职称英语(综合类)15篇完形填空 ---个人整理背诵版(4)

学校午餐 研究显示， 在英国超过一半以上的儿童将午餐带到学校去吃而不是在 中午饭点正常吃。 英国学校在午餐时间会正常提供午餐， 孩子们可以选择 带餐过去或者在食堂就餐。 在此项研究中， 一项令人震惊的发现显示， 学校提供的午餐比家长准 备的更加健康。学校午餐有着严格的准备标准：包括一份水果、一种蔬菜 和肉、奶制品以及含有大量淀粉的食物，如面包、意大利面食。然而被检 查的学生自带的饭盒中含有甜饮料、 薯条和巧克力棒。 学生摄取的糖分是 他们应当在午餐中摄取的 2 倍。 这份调查研究对为什么在过去的十年中英国学生的超重人数上升提 供了一个更好的解释。 但不幸的是， 政府不能批评家长但却可以提醒他们 牛奶、水果、蔬菜的营养价值。孩子们饮食上小小的改变可能会影响他们 未来的健康。 孩子们在这样的年龄段很容易养成坏习惯， 家长却是唯一能 够阻止这件事发生的人。

+第十二篇 A Powerful Influence There can be no doubt at all(根本) that the Internet has made a huge difference to our lives. Parents are worried that children spend too much time playing on the Internet, hardly ever(几乎不) doing anything else in their spare time. Naturally, parents are curious (对…好奇)to find out why the Internet is so attractive, and they want to know if it can be harmful(伤害) to their children. Should parents worry if their children are spending that much time staring at (盯着看成) their computers? Obviously, if children are bent over their computers for hours, absorbed (沉迷) in some game, instead of doing their homework, then something is wrong. Parents and children could decide how much use the child should make(利用) of the Internet, and the child should give his or her word (诺言) that it won’t interfere(妨碍) with homework. If the child is not holding(坚持) to this arrangement(安排),

the parent can take more drastic(严厉的，极端的) steps(采取措施) dealing with a child's use of the Internet is not much different from negotiating(协商)_ any other sort of bargain about(就(某物)讨价还价) behaviour. Any parent who is seriously(严重) alarmed about a child's behaviour should make an appointment(约定) to discuss(讨论) the matter with a teacher. Spending time in front of the screen does not necessarily (必定) affect a child's performance at school. Even if a child is absolutely (完 全地) crazy about using the Internet,he or she is probably just going(度过) through a phase(阶 段，时期), and in a few months there will be something else to worry about!

强大的影响 毫无疑问， 互联网给我们的生活带来了巨大改变， 家长们担心孩子们 在网上花费大量的时间， 在他们的课余时间几乎不做其他事情。 自然而然 地家长们好奇找出网络之所以吸引人的原因， 并且他们想知道这是否会对 他们的孩子造成伤害。 花了大量的时间盯着电脑看， 家长们是否应该担心 呢? 很显然，如果孩子在电脑上花费了太长时间，如沉迷网络游戏，而不 是做功课，就是不对的。家长和孩子应该决定多大程度上利用电脑，并且 孩子应该保证这不会干预他的功课。 如果孩子没坚守这个安排， 家长会采 取更加严厉的措施处理孩子对网络的应用， 这样与协商任何关于这样的行 为的讨价还价无异。 任何家长对孩子这样的行为产生警觉时应该与老师讨论一下， 在电脑 屏幕前太长时间并不一定会影响孩子的在校表现， 即使一个孩子已经疯狂 地迷恋使用网络， 他也许仅仅是在度过一个时期， 几个月以后还会有其他 事情去担心。

+第十三篇 The Old Gate In the Middle Ages the vast majority of European cities had walls around them. This was partly for defensive reasons(原因) but another factor was the need to keep out anyone regarded as undesirable, like people with contagious(传染性的，会蔓延的) diseases(疾病). The Old City of London gates were all demolished(拆毁) by the end of the 18th century. The last of London's gates was removed a century ago, but by a stroke(打击) of luck, it was never destroyed. This gate is, in actual(实际的) fact, not called a gate at all; its name is Temple Bar, and it marked the boundary(分界线) between the Old City of London and Westminster. In 1878 the Council of London took the Bar down, numbered the stones and put the gate in storage(存储) because its design was unfashionable(老套) it was expensive to maintain(维修) and it was blocking the traffic. The Temple Bar Trust was set out(建立) in the 1970's with the intention of returning the gate home. The aim of the Trust is the preservation( 保 存 ) of the nation's architectural heritage.Transporting the gate will mea

n physically pulling it down(推倒) , stone by stone, removing and rebuilding it near St Paul's Cathedral(总教堂, 大教堂). Most of the facade of the gate will probably be replaced(替换) , though there is a good chance(机会)_ that the basic structure will be sound. The hardest job(工作) of all, however, will be to recreate the statues(雕像) of the monarchs(君 主) that once stood on top of the gate.

古老之门 在中世纪， 绝大多数欧洲城市都有城墙围绕着。 城墙一方面是为了防 御外敌， 但另一方面是阻止任何不受欢迎的人入城， 比如患有传染病的人。 伦敦古城的城门，均在 18 世纪末被拆毁。伦敦最后一道城门也在一个世 纪之前迁移，但是极其幸运的是，它从未遭到破坏。 事实上，这道门，完全不能称其为门；它的名字叫圣殿酒吧区，是伦 敦古城与威斯敏斯特的分界线。1878 年，伦敦议会将其推倒，给石头编 了号，并将它们储藏。原因是这个门设计老套，维修费用昂贵，并且堵塞 交通。 在 20 世纪 70 年代， 最初为了恢复城门， 建立了圣殿酒吧区信托基金， 目的是保存国家的建筑遗产。 运送城门如同亲手将它推倒一般不易， 一块 石头接着一块石头，搬运再重建。它坐落在圣保罗大教堂附近，尽管基本 的结构可能很稳固，但城门的大部分外观将被替换。然而，其中最难的工 作是重建曾经屹立在城门的君主们的雕像。

+第十四篇 Family History 家族史 In an age when technology is developing faster than ever before, many people are being attracted (吸引) to the idea of looking back into the past. One way they can do this is by investigating(调查， 研究) their own family history. They can try to find (找出) out more about where their families came from and what they did, This is now a fast-growing hobby, especially in countries with a fairly(相 当) short history, like Australia and the United States. It is one(一方面) thing to spend some time going(探究) through a book on family history and to take the decision (决心) to inves …… 此处隐藏：5596字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
