Diets aren’t the way to go when it comes to losing weight. That’s because they create temporary eating patterns—and, therefore, temporary results. So what’s the best way to drop excess weight? Create a new normal! Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits, replacing old, unhealthy ones with new, healthy behaviors. Here are five ways to make that happen.

Take exercise.   1.   . Walking the family dog, cycling to school, and doing other things that increase your daily level of activity can all help you look and feel good and keep weight off.

   2.   One reason people get less exercise these days is that they spend too much time watching TV, looking at the computer, or playing video games. Limit recreational screen time to less than 2 hours per day.

Watch out for unhealthy drinks. Another key factor in weight gain is that more people drink sugary drinks, such as sodas, juice drinks, and sports drinks.   3.    

Eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are about more than just vitamins and minerals.   4.    And when you fill up on friuts and vegetables, you’re less likely to overeat when it comes to high-calorie foods like chips or cookies.

  5.   People who don’t have breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they are likely to get more calories.

A. Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscles.

B. So go for water or low-fat milk instead of soda.

C. They’ve also packed with fiber, which means they fill you up.

D. Don’t skip breakfast.

E. Share your breakfast with others.

F. It is bad for your eyes to spend too much time watching TV.

G. Reduce screen time.

試題分析:文章介紹了同情心在過去的這些年里面在急劇的下降,同時也說明了下降的原因。同情心也是每個人所應(yīng)該具備的素質(zhì)之一,是工作取得成功的一個因素。文章也告訴我們應(yīng)該怎樣培養(yǎng)同情心。

1.A中心句概括。Take exercise 意為要做運(yùn)動。橫線后還要增加活動的量。所以答案應(yīng)為A,意思為:有規(guī)律的鍛煉可以燃燒你的熱量增強(qiáng)你的肌肉。

2.G段落概括。下文的意思是:人們減少活動的主要原因是他們把大多數(shù)的時間花費(fèi)在了看電視,玩電腦,玩游戲。所以答案應(yīng)為G,意為減少面對屏幕的時間。

3.B總結(jié)上文。Another key factor in weight gain is that more people drink sugary drinks, such as sodas, juice drinks, and sports drinks.       意思為:增肥的另外一個關(guān)健因素是更多的人喝含糖的飲料,比如碳酸飲料,果汁飲料和運(yùn)動飲料等。故下文應(yīng)是B,意為:因此要喝水或者是低脂肪牛奶用來代替碳酸飲料。

4.C上下文聯(lián)系題。段落的意思是,每天都要吃蔬菜和水果,它們里面不僅僅是維生素和礦物質(zhì),還有大量的纖維,可以使你充裕起來。故答案應(yīng)為C。

5.D引起下文。People who don’t have breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they are likely to get more calories.句意為:不吃早餐的人通常感覺更餓,以致于后來吃得更多,因此他們會得到更多的熱量。

Some weight-loss camps, which are rare in China just a few years ago, have sprouted in Beijing, Qingdao, Shenzhen, and other cities. Today about 15 percent of adults, or 200 million Chinese, are reportedly overweight. Of these, 90 million—about 7 percent—are obese(極肥胖的).
Experts say the obesity epidemic is spreading to children, though more slowly than in adults. The trend, they say, will have a huge impact on the health of China’s citizens and economy. “We’re seeing a very large proportion of children and adolescents who are quite heavy and aren’t moving much,” said Barry Popkin, a nutrition professor. Popkin carries out an ongoing health-and-nutrition survey of 16,000 households in China. He says more kids today are overeating and putting on weight “quite quickly.” In just ten years, China’s childhood obesity rate has doubled, with the greatest gains coming in urban areas. “In big cities it’s a big problem.” 
Some experts blame the extra fat on a range of factors, many of them tied to China’s rapidly changing economy and culture. The diets of Chinese adults and children are far higher in calorie-laden meats, fish, eggs, dairy products, fats, and sugars than ever before. In addition, kids—especially city dwellers—are more sedentary today and spend more time indoors in front of homework, television, computer games, and the Internet.
Shuwen Ng, a health economist, says that kids in China now have pocket money, and they spend a portion of it on junk food. Ng adds that advertising and peer groups influence kids’ food choices. Certain foods, such as new candies or fast food, have attractive features.
China’s childhood obesity rate still lags that of the United States, where some 15 percent of kids are said to be obese. But the long-term effects are equally serious.
【小題1】According to the passage we know _____.

A.weight-loss camps have been very popular in China six years ago
B.a(chǎn)bout 290 million Chinese are overweight in China in all
C.in China childhood obesity rate in rural areas is lower than that in major cities

A.obesity explosion in China will affect the United States

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently announced trends in fruit and vegetable consumption(食用) among adults. Since 2000, the CDC has made efforts with goals of getting 75% of Americans to eat two or more servings of fruit a day and 50% of Americans to eat three or more servings of vegetables a day. Unfortunately, Americans aren’t meeting these modest targets.
Although a diet high in fruit and vegetables can reduce the risk of many diseases, Americans just aren’t getting enough. In fact, since 2000, the amount of vegetables Americans are eating has stayed the same and the amount of fruit Americans are eating has gone down. The CDC also finds that only about a third of adults are eating their expected servings of fruit, and just over a quarter of adults are eating their expected servings of vegetables.
So why aren’t Americans getting their expected servings of fruit and vegetables? It turns out that Americans might be spoiled when it comes to their produce. A national survey conducted by Fruit2day reveals that nearly half of Americans leave fruit in their fridges until it rots with people in Boston among the worst and those in New York and Los Angeles among the best. Sadly, most Americans admit to leaving fruit in the fridge for more than a week.
There are many reasons why Americans don’t eat their fruit or vegetables, including the inconvenience of having to wash or peel it. Fruit2day offers consumers a surprising and convenient way to enjoy the goodness of fruit.
“With no added sugar, natural juices and two full servings of fruit, our Fruit2day line has really captured the imaginations of health-conscious consumers who are actively looking to get more fruit in their diets,” said Hanno Holm, president and chief executive officer of Hero-White Wave. “Fruit2day makes getting more fruit in one’s diet easier for any daily snack routine.”
【小題1】For 4 million American adults, how many of them are eating two or more servings of fruit a day?

A.About 1.3 million.B.About 2 million.C.About 3 million.D.About 1 million.
【小題2】We can learn from the first two paragraphs that __________ .
A.Americans have been eating fewer vegetables since 2000.
B.most Americans eat less fruit to reduce the risk of diseases.
C.most Americans prefer fruit to vegetables.
D.over 25% of adults are eating three or more daily servings of vegetables.
【小題3】In which city are people most likely to leave fruit in their fridge?
A.In Boston.B.In New York.C.In Los Angeles.D.Not mentioned.
【小題4】With the help of Fruit2day, Americans can __________ .
A.easily get rid of their bad eating habits
B.conveniently have more fruit in their diets
C.a(chǎn)dd sugar and natural juices to their diets
D.find another excuse for not eating healthily
【小題5】Americans don’t eat their fruit or vegetables because __________ .
A.they are relatively forgetful
B.they are too busy with their work
C.they don’t think it convenient to eat them
D.they prefer daily snacks with added sugar
