University of Houston associate professor Temple Northup has looked at the relationship between food consumption and the number of hours spent in front of the television. [5]Northup’s study, published in The International Journal of Communication and Health, surveyed 591 undergraduate students on their viewing, eating and drinking habits. Consistent with past studies, he found that the more people watched TV, the more they engaged in unhealthy eating. "The explanation is relatively straightforward—[6]the act of watching TV is an activity that encourages snacking," says Northup.
    Lots of research shows mindless eating plays a prominent role in how much we digest while distracted with what is happening on screen.’ "Watching TV while eating is also common behavior," says
    Lilian Cheung, director of health promotion and communication at Harvard School of Public Health. [7] "When we are distracted while eating, or eating mindlessly, we are not paying full attention to the food in front of us, and miss the cues letting us know that we are full."
    5.What did Northup do in his survey?
    6.What does Northup’s finding suggest?
    7.What’s the consequence of eating mindlessly?

选项 A、Studied a lot of international journals.
B、Estimated food consumption of undergraduate students.
C、Spent a lot of time eating in front of the television.
D、Surveyed students’ viewing, eating and drinking habits.

答案 D

解析 题目问Northup在调查中所做的工作。录音开头提到,休斯顿大学的副教授着眼于研究摄食量和在电视机前花费的时间之间的关系,然后引出他发表的研究,调查了591个大学生的看电视和饮食习惯(viewing,eating and drinking habits)。D项复现原文关键信息,故为答案。A项中的关键词journal有在新闻中出现,但原文是说Northup的研究发表在国际期刊上,并没有提到他研究了大量国际期刊。B项拼凑了新闻中的food consumption和undergraduate students,但Northup的研究并非“估算本科生的食品摄入量”。C项中的in front of the television有在新闻中出现,但文中是指被调查对象边看电视边吃饭,而非Northup自己。
