【语篇解读】 压力会导致头发变白吗?
许多人相信情况是这样的。
本文从年龄和基因两方面谈了头发变白的原因,持续的压力和忧虑对于身体是有害的,可导致脱发。
但是,究竟压力和头发变白之间是否有联系,目前尚无定论。
1.Theunderlinedphraseinthefirstparagraphmostprobablymeans________.
A.cleverremarks B.sillyremarks
C.excitingremarks D.disappointedremarks
解析 词义猜测题。
画线短语前面提到“Manypeoplebelievethattensionandstresscancauseyourhairtoloseitscolor”,即许多人相信紧张和压力导致头发褪色变白。
短文接着谈到“Infact,itis...”,这是推测画线词意思的关键。
因此anoldwives’tale意为“无稽之谈”。
答案 B
2.Thesecondparagraphmainlytellsus________.
A.everypartofbodyisreplacedwithage
B.hairswillgrowweakbutnotdie
C.skinbecomeswrinkledwithage
D.everypartofbodyageswithage
解析 主旨大意题。
第二段第一句话是该段的主题句。
从中可以看出,人体的每一部分都会随着年龄的增长而衰老。
答案 D
3.Whatmightplaythemostimportantroleinthegrayingprocess?
A.Geneticsandtheamountofsleepingtime.
B.Theamountoffoodpeopleeatandlivingenvironment.
C.Theamountofpigmentandgenetics.
D.Geneticsandtheamountofwaterpeopledrink
解析 细节理解题。
本文第三段提到“Atfirst,hairswillhavealimitedamountofpigmentandtheywillappeartobegrayishincolor.Intime,theywilllosealloftheirpigmentandwillbewhite.Manythingsareknowntocausegraying,andgeneticsisaverypowerfulfactor.”由此可以看出,色素和基因在头发变白的过程中起着重要的作用。
答案 C

A.aperson’sfatness B.aperson’sfitness
C.aperson’sweightloss D.aperson’shairloss
解析 细节理解题。
本文倒数第二段提到“Constantworryandtensioncanhavemanyharmfuleffectsonthehumanbody.Itisaknownfactthatstressfultimescancauseonetosufferhairloss”。
由此可知,持续的压力会导致脱发。
答案 D
5.Fromthepassagewecaninferthat________.
A.stresscausinggrayhairisstillinquestion
B.grayhairhasnothingtodowithtension
C.stressfulsituationscanbeofbenefit
D.soundevidencehasbeenfound
解析 推理判断题。
本文倒数第二段最后提到“However,thereisnosoundevidencetosupportthis.”最后一段也提到“Thereisnoscientificevidencetosupportthetheory...”。
由此可知,是否压力会引起头发变白仍无定论。
答案 A。
