答案解析

美国食品与药品监管局对鸦片类药品进行监管的目标是________。
[A]禁止医生开这类药品
[B]将这种药品的不良影响降到最低
[C]要求厂商向病患和医生提供更多关于药品的信息
[D]限制有权开出这类药品的人数
【答案】B具体细节题
【解析】本题考查对最后一段内容的理解。最后一段第一句话就指出虽然鸦片类药物造成的社会影响触目惊心，但是对于它的监督仍然好像是走进了一个迷宫。接着具体介绍了监督管理部门——美国食品与药品管理局的计划，他们在2009年提出要进行监管，但是具体成型要到2011年。而且他们的领导人也指出“无论采取什么监管措施，都必须保证有需求的病人仍然能够买到他们需要的镇痛药”。由此可见[A]是错误，监管的目标并不是要禁止鸦片类药物，而是要通过调查和监管将这种药物的医疗副作用和社会不良影响降到最低。[B]准确。[C]、[D]利用原文内容，设置干扰选项，它们只是FDA提出的监管内容，不能和监管目标混为一谈。

2 根据下列材料，请回答题
　　The average American drinks a gallon of soda a week，which delivers roughly 1，000 calories and no nutrition．The average American is also overweight or obese．Could changing one of those things help change the other?
　　A growing number of officials think so，which accounts for a spate of proposed new taxes on soda as a way to discourage consumption while at the same time raising money to fund other obesity—fighting initiatives．Some 20 states and cities，from New Mexico to Baltimore，contemplated soda taxes this spring．
　　The reaction against them has been swift and fierce．In March，scores of soda—company employees sporting Pepsi．Coke and 7.Up gear swarmed the Kansas state senate to fight a proposal that would have added a penny in tax for each teaspoon of sugar in a nonjuice drink．That would have increased the price of a 12-OZ．soda by about 10 and generated some $90 million in revenue a year．“I thought this is a wise choice，”says state senator John Vratil，who，like counterparts across the country，has been struggling to address both arecession—induced budget gap and rising public—heath costs stemming from obesity．Instead，he got an earful about how a soda tax would kill jobs，burden the poor and constitute an unwelcome government intrusion into the American diet．
　　Government involvement in what Americans eat is nothing new．But why tax soda andnot，say，ice cream，pizza or Oreos——0r，for that matter，the video games that discourage kids from going outside to run around?Washington city—council member Mary Cheh says it’s because soda is where scientists have observed the clearest link to excess pounds．When Cheh set out to fund her Healthy Schools Act，which would raise food and physical—education standards at schools in D．C．-where about 40％of kids are overweight or obese—she didn’t know she’d wind up going after soda．But the data overwhelmed her：The amount ofsoda the typical American drinks has grown by roughly 500％over the past 60 years，and of the 250 tO 300 calories a day Americans have，on average，added to their diets since the late 1970s．nearly half have come from sugared drinks．“I don’t want to prescribe taxes for all sorts of dietary choices，”says Cheh.“but if we were going to only target one thing to make a material difference，soda would be it．”
　　The tougher question is whether increasing the price of soda would，ia fact，reduce the number of calories people consume．Some research indicates the answer is yes．Other research leaves room for doubt．Though studies do show that a 10％increase in the price of soda leads people to purchase about 10％less of it．that doesn’t necessarily mean folks aren’t making up for those calories elsewhere．
　　How do people feel about soda taxes?In April．the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute asked residents of New York State if they supported or opposed a“fat tax”on nondiet sugared soda．Thirty—one percent were in favor，and 66％were opposed．Yet when asked if they would support such a tax if the money raised were used to fund health care，people changed their opinions dramatically．with 48％in favor and just 49％opposed．
The officials proposed new taxes on soda for all these purposes Except_______．

A．reducing citizens’calcIrie intake

B．increasing government revenue

C．bridging the gap between the rich and the poor

D．raising money for public—health programs
