The family of Sirycs refused all the benefits of civilization. Now they live in a forest near Zhitomir and enjoy their hermit’s life.
52 year-old head of the family Ivan Siryc, his wife Victoriya and their 12-year-old son Stepan live in a sun-dried hut, covered with thatch(茅草屋顶). There are 3 rooms in it(each of them is about 2 square meters). They are joined together with the other room, in the middle of which the stove can be found.
The Sirycs happen to be indoors only in winter, in summer they spend all their time in the workshops. During the whole year a hayloft serves as a bed for them. They even made a glass roof above it to see the stars. They say, no one can see such a wonderful view in the city. As for the toilet, they didn’t build it at all. They just have some special place in the forest not far from their hut.
To move into such conditions was a joint decision. 8 years ago the Sirycs were successful artists in Moscow. But one day they accidentally heard on the radio the story about the dolmens(巨石墓)on the Caucausus and decided to go there. Stepan at that time was 8 months old. Victoriya remembers herself sitting near the brook and holding her son in her arms while Ivan was examining those wonderful places. When he returned they both suddenly realized they wanted to change their life.
Now the Sirycs eat only raw food, because they believe the food heated to 40℃ immediately becomes dead. So they eat berries, pickled and dried mushrooms. The latter tastes like chips, they say. But you should be careful and not to eat too much of them, because they swell in your stomach and you can feel like you’ve overeaten afterwards.
So at first they were vegetarians, now they are raw food eaters but what they really dream about is to become "air eaters". Such people’s bacteria produce all necessary elements from air and are gradually becoming younger and even able to "grow" new organs. Victoriya, for example, has already grown two new teeth.
As for their son Stepan, he goes to school once a month. He’s in the 4th grade now. But actually he doesn’t like to go there because other children often tease him because of his long hair. But Stepan can’t cut them off because he believes this is connection with cosmos.
His father taught him to draw and make sculptures. Later he’s going to become a sculptor.
In regard to diet, the Sirycs are most likely to agree that
选项
A、mushrooms are not good for our health.
B、one should not eat too much raw food.
C、meat should also be eaten raw.
D、no meat at all should be eaten.
答案
D
解析
第6段第1句提到Sirycs一家以前是素食者,现在是生食者,据此,可以推断他们早就不吃肉了,他们现在吃的东西不会包括肉类,因此本题应选D。注意排除干扰项B。在第5段最后一句中,not to eattoo much of them中的them指代dried mushrooms,强调一次不能吃太多的干蘑菇,而B则从整体上说不能吃太多的生食,事实上,他们一家现在只吃生食,所以B与原文不符。
