2、cal is an amino acid（氨基酸）called L-theanine. The scientists say it may increase the strength of gamma delta T cells. That’s the letter T, not the drink. Gamma delta T cells are part of the body’s defenses. First, the researchers mixed some of these cells with antigens（抗原）found in the amino acid. Ant

3、igens help the body react to infection. Then the scientists added some bacteria（細(xì)菌）. Within twenty-four hours, the cells produced a lot of interferon, a substance that fights infection. Cells not mixed with the antigens did not produce interferon. In the second part of the study, eleven people dran

4、k five to six cups of black tea every day. Ten other people drank the same amount of instant coffee. That is dried coffee mixed with hot water. Two weeks later, and again two weeks after that, the researchers tested the blood of all twenty-one people. They also looked at what happened when they add

5、ed bacteria to the blood cells. They found that the tea drinkers produced five times more interferon after they started drinking tea. The coffee drinkers did not produce interferon. Doctor Jack Bukowski led the study. He says the antigens added to the gamma delta T cells were responsible for the in

6、creased reaction to the bacteria. He says the study also showed that the cells were able to remember the bacteria and fight them again the next time. Earlier research already has found that tea can help prevent heart disease and cancer. Doctor Bukowski says the new study must be repeated with more

7、people. If the findings prove to be true, he says, then tea drinking might also help protect against bacterial infections. He says the amino acid L-theanine could be removed from tea and used as a drug to strengthen the body’s defenses. 1. We may know from the text that ________ can be found in dif

8、ferent kinds of tea. A. Gamma delta T cells B. L-theanine C. interferon D. bacteria 答案解析：答案為B。本題為推理題。由第一段 “The team studied a chemical found in black, green, oolong and pekoe tea.

9、成分。故答案為B。 2. Tea may help strengthen the body’s defense system because it helps ________. A. the body to produce more interferon B. the body to produce more gamma delta T cells C. to add some bacteria to the blood cells D. to mix antigens with some of the cells in the body 答案解析：答案為

10、A。本題為推理題。由第二段 “Within twenty-four hours, the cells produced a lot of interferon, a substance that fights infection.” 可知，細(xì)胞產(chǎn)生interferon，它可以抵抗感染，故可推斷，茶能增強(qiáng)身體的抵抗能力因?yàn)樗軒椭眢w產(chǎn)生更多的interferon。故答案為A。 3. According to Dr Bukowski, ________. A. the findings of the study have already proved to be true B. h

11、e has taken some amino acid L-theanine from tea and made a drug with it C. further study is needed to prove the findings true D. he is not sure whether tea can help prevent heart disease and cancer 答案解析：答案為C。本題為推理題。由最后一段首句 “Earlier research already has found that tea can help prevent heart dis

12、ease and cancer.” 可知，D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。由該段的后文 “Doctor Bukowski says the new study must be repeated with more people. If the findings prove to be true…”可知，A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，C選項(xiàng)正確。由最后一句 “He says the amino acid L-theanine could be removed from tea and used as a drug to strengthen the body’s defenses.” 可知，Dr Bukowski認(rèn)為可以從茶中提取a

13、mino acid L-theanine來(lái)制藥，B選項(xiàng)與文意不符，故錯(cuò)誤。 4. What would be the best title for this Text? A. Tea Is Better Than Coffee. B. Tea May Help Fight Infection C. Tea Can Help Prevent Cancer.
