Reading Read the following passages and choose the best answer for each of the following questions.
Passage 1:
\n
How to eat healthy can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves. Registered dietitian（营养师）Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.
\n
“Go for nutrient-dense（营养物密集的）food,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice – the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient-dense ones are so superior,” she emphasizes.
\n
Morrissey believes that if a person keeps his or her diet to a small variety of only one or two foods that are not only virtually impossible to sustain, it can be very harmful, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.
\n
According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that will cure your illnesses, or make you a superwoman, is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.
\n
“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat— they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are the match, the spark, for the fuel,” she explains. “We need them all, but in very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”
25．It can be inferred from the first paragraph that working women ____.
think cooking is especially complicated
do not share the same views with registered dietitians
are busy and not interested in cooking
are likely to eat healthily
26．Orange juice is different from orange drink in that ____.
it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real oranges
it contains only a small percentage of real juice
it is largely orange-colored sugar water
it contains nothing but calories（热量）
27．In paragraph 4, “a fruitless search” means ____.
an effort with no results
a search for a diet without fruits
research on fruitless diets
a diet used as medicine
28．According to the passage, many women assume that ____.
vitamins are some kind of substitution for food
a balanced diet can result in being fat
staying thin and healthy are both possible
lack of variety in diets leads to staying thin
29．By “if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless”, the author attempts to mean “____”
Without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no use.
Carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to sustain a human life
Vitamins and minerals are virtually of no value
Carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and minerals
