2022年考博英语-武汉理工大学考试题库及全真模拟冲刺卷（附答案带详解）1. 单选题A fast-food restaurant within about 500 feet of a school may lead to at least a 5 percent increase in the overweight rate at that school. The study, conducted by economists at Columbia University and the University California, Berkeley, suggests that “a ban on fast foods in the immediate proximity of schools could have a sizable effect on obesity rates among affected students.”The researchers looked at how proximity to the restaurants affected obesity rates among 3 million ninth graders at California schools, and more than 1 million pregnant women in Michigan, New Jersey and Texas. They focused on the ninth graders, typically about 14 years old, in part because the students get a fitness test in the springabout 30 weeks after starting school and exposure to fast food. The study, released by the American Association of Wine Economists, showed that “the presence of a fast-food restaurant within a tenth of a mile of a school is associated with at least a 5.2 percent increase in the obesity rate in that school.” It also found that pregnant women who lived within a tenth of a mile of a fast-food restaurant had “a 4.4 percent increase in the probability of gaining over 20 kilos (44 pounds).”The study follows one presented last month at an American Stroke Association conference. Researchers from the University of Michigan found people who live in neighborhoods packed with fast-food restaurants are more likely to suffer from strokes. In December, a study found that youth who study within a half mile from a fast-food outlet eat fewer fruit and vegetables, drink more soda and are more likely to be obese than students at other schools.Janet Currie, lead researcher of the wine economists study, said that it might be a good policy to have a fast-food-free zone if fast food near schools causes obesity. “It would not be so different in spirit from existing policies that aim to prohibit soft drinks and junk foods in schools or to improve the quality of school lunch,” she said.A spokeswoman for the parent company of KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and Long John Silvers, declined to comment, saying she had not seen the study. Burger King did not return calls seeking comment. A McDonalds spokeswoman referred calls to the National Retail Federation, a trade group in Washington.“I think it would be a dangerous precedent to limit the types of legitimate, important businesses and where theyre located in a city,” federation spokeswoman Ellen Davis said. “Doesnt it make more sense for parents to limit a childs allowance or let them know when and where they cant eat certain things?” Davis added that restaurants have changed their menus in the last five years, especially for childrens meals. “We see many healthy options availableslices of apple, milk instead of sodas. Its important to note that many chain restaurants have tried to diversify their menus and make them healthier.”1. Which of the following is INCORRECT about the study mentioned in Paragraph 2?2.
