20、 people, especially women, who are obese.Braverman and his co-author, Dr. Nirav Shah, studied 1,400 men and women, comparing their BMI measurement to their percentage of body fat, as measured by a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan.

But Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau seems to have discovered a goldmine his socks.Hes been seen wearing “statement socks” at many public events. For example, duri

And in June, he wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves a national symbol of Canada when he appeared on a TV show.The New York Times editor Vanessa Friedm
35、an praised Trudeaus play on his socks as “clever”.“Socks are subtle(微妙的) enough not to be distracting, but visible enough that you cant miss the point,” she wrote. “Rarely have a mans ankles said so much.”But not all the playful socks that Trudeau wears send some kind of political message some of th
36、em are just for fun.One example is a pair he wore during a meeting with Enda Kenny, then the prime minister of Ireland, in Montreal on May 4. During their meeting, Trudeau wore Star Wars socks simply because that day happened to be International Star Wars Day. If this pair of socks sent out any mess
37、age, according to Vogue magazine reporter Emily Farra, that message was “just that he has a quirky side and loves George Lucas films,” she wrote.However, some say that 45-year-old Trudeaus unusual sock choices show a childish side of the prime minister that proves he isnt mature enough to be the lea
38、der of a country.But Friedman doesnt see it that way. “The socks have been a source of pride and applause on an international scale a symbol both of Mr Trudeaus ability to embrace multiculturalism and of his position as a next-generation leader not bound by old traditions,” she wrote. “They have ope
39、ned up possibilities for the future.”1.

41、d and is ready to accept different culturesD. is a leader who has abandoned old traditions to build up his future4. The article is mainly about _A. the strange hobby of a young politicianB. a young leaders clever choice of socksC. how male politicians maintain public imageD. the gender difference in
42、 modern politicians【答案】1.B 2.D 3.C 4.B【解析】1. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句话he wore a pair of socks with the pattern of maple leaves a national symbol of Canada when he appeared on a TV show可知,枫叶是加拿大的这个国家的象征,所以Trudeau穿着带有枫叶图案的袜子表示他热爱他的国家。2. 猜测词义题。根据文章第五段not all the playful socks that Trudeau wears send some kind
43、 of political message some of them are just for fun可知不是所有Trudeau穿的袜子都带有政治色彩,有些纯属好玩。第六段主要讲了一个Trudeau在和Enda Kenny的会议中穿了一双有星球大战图案的袜子的例子,根据前文可以猜测,Vogue杂志的记者Emily Farra说,如果说这也有什么含义的话,那一定是奇怪的含义。3. 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段a symbol both of Mr Trudeaus ability to embrace multiculturalism and of his position as a next-
44、generation leader not bound by old traditions和They have opened up possibilities for the future可知,Friedman认为Trudeau是一个思想开明、勇于接受文化多样性的总统,故答案选择C。4. 主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲的是加拿大总理Trudeau出于各种政治或者个人喜好等原因在不同的场合穿着带有不同图案的袜子的事件,B选项符合主旨。(B)l CAFE DISPLAYl OUR JOURNEYSl 12 April-29 May 2008Young people explore how they h
