PAGE PAGE PAGE 1 Unit 5 Canada–“The True North” 李仕才 一、阅读理解。 (2018·辽宁五校联考)In the dead of winter，we don’t typically think about spending time outdoors，but according to many physicians we should.The sun is our greatest source of a vitamin that is essential for good health—Vitamin D． This important vitamin strengthens bones and teeth and is linked to the prevention of heart disease，cancer and many other life-threatening diseases.The recommended daily requirement is 400－600 International Units (IU). In summer, people with dark brown eyes and darker skin turn sunlight from just 15 minutes outside without sunscreen into adequate amounts of Vitamin D． Even during winter, just a 10-minute walk at midday can keep the body’s Vitamin D at healthy levels.During brief winter walks，we receive the greatest benefits when we wear no sunscreen and expose as much skin to the sun as possible. Vitamin D can be also obtained from foods.Salmon is one of the best sources of the Vitamin.Egg yolks(蛋黄)，cheese，mushrooms and some animal organs contain smaller quantities of it. To attract consumers，food companies add Vitamin D to some of their milk products.The practice of putting the Vitamin into milk began in the 1930s.At that time，many children were suffering from rickets，an illness that is caused by a deficiency(缺乏)of Vitamin D．It made the children’s bones soft and weak.Adding Vitamin D to milk helped to solve the problem, and it has been available ever since. For people who still need more Vitamin D, there is another option；Take Vitamin D supplements(补充物)．These products are widely sold in stores.However，anyone considering taking supplements should consult a physician first. 【解题导语】　本文是一篇科普文，主要介绍了维生素D的一些情况。 1．During the winter months，people___________ ． A．aren’t able to meet their deadlines B．often don’t dress warmly enough C．generally like to remain indoors D．leave lots of work for others to do C　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In the dead of winter，we don’t typically think about spending time out
