【答案解析】56【标准答案】B。

【高考考点】归纳主旨题。

【试题解析】本文主要介绍chocolate中含有的一种成分Theobromine能有很好的止咳效果，所以该题的正确答案为B

55【标准答案】B。

【高考考点】推理判断题。

【试题解析】从第四段首句Tenhealthyvolunteers（志愿者）weregiventheobromine,codeineorplacebo,apillthatcontainsnomedicine,duringtheexperiment.可知实验中每组人吃一种所给的物品才能看出止咳的效果，故需要三组志愿者。

54【标准答案】C。

【高考考点】细节理解题。

【试题解析】A、B、D三项中的物品是用来做实验的物品。

在文章第四段最后一句Theresearchersthenmeasuredlevelsofcapsaicin,whichisusedinresearchtocausecoughingandasasignofhowwellthemedicinearestoppingcoughs.可知Capsaicin（辣椒素）用来引起咳嗽和作为这些药物如何止咳的依据。

53【标准答案】D。

【高考考点】推理判断题。

【试题解析】从第二段的Theirstudyfoundthattheobromine,foundincocoa,wasnearlyathirdmoreeffectiveinstoppingcoughsthancodeine,whichwasconsideredthebestcoughmedicineatpresent.可看出theobromine比codeine更有效，判断A项错误。

既然它用来止咳，改善人们的生活质量，所以B项错误。

在第一段提到了heobromine是从chocolate里提炼出来的，所以C项错误。

故正确答案是D项。

D篇是一篇科普性读物。

选材于医学的某一方面的研究――对巧克力中theobromine（可可碱）独特的治疗咳嗽的功效的对比研究，证明theobromine（可可碱）是未来有效的治疗咳嗽的良药。
