【題目】As a recipe for losing weight, taking a slice of chocolate cake at breakfast would seem an unlikely fantasy.

A team from Tel Aviv University found that eating pudding as part of a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that also included proteins and carbohydrates (碳水化合物), could help dieter to lose more weight---and keep it off in the long run.

Attempting to avoid sweets entirely can create a psychological addiction to these same foods in the long term. So adding desserts to breakfast can control craving(渴望) throughout the rest of the day.

Over the course of a 32-week-long study, participants, who added desserts to their breakfast lost about 40 pounds more than a group that avoided such foods. What’s more, they kept off the pounds longer.

A meal in the morning provides energy for the day’s tasks, aids in brain functioning, and kick-starts the body’s metabolism (新陳代謝), making it decisive to weight loss and maintenance. And breakfast is the meal that most successfully regulates ghrelin, the hormone that increases longer. While the level of ghrelin rises before every meals, it is controlled most effectively at breakfast time.

The researchers hoped to determine whether meal time and composition had an impact on weight loss in the short and long term, or whether it was a simple matter of the caloric count.

【1】 According to the passage, the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 probably refers to __________.

A. the calorie B. the breakfast

C. the craving for pudding D. the lost weight

【2】Adding some desserts in your breakfast diet properly will __________.

A. make you gain more fat

B. make you become slim more easily

C. help improve your psychological health

D. help develop your craving for more delicious food

【3】Through paragraph 5. the author wants to show__________ .

A. the special function of ghrelin

B. some decisive ways of losing weight

C. the great importance of breakfast to us

D. the nutrition we should take in during the breakfast

【4】What will the passage develope next?

A. Another experiment on weight loss.

B. An importance of calorie.

C. People’s breakfast time.

D. The composition of the breakfast.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】C

【4】A

【解析】

試題分析:文章寫了早上吃一塊甜品有可能變瘦。

【1】D推理判斷題。由 breakfast that also included proteins and carbohydrates (碳水化合物), could help dieter to lose more weight可知減肥者需要把減肥堅持下去,所以選D。

【2】B推理判斷題。由 As a recipe for losing weight, taking a slice of chocolate cake at breakfast 可知吃甜品可能變瘦,所以選B。

【3】C細節(jié)理解題。由 A meal in the morning provides energy for the day’s tasks, aids in brain functioning, and kick-starts the body’s metabolism (新陳代謝), making it decisive to weight loss and maintenance可知早飯的重要性,所以選C。

【題目】第二節(jié):下面文章中有5個段落需要添加首句(1-5)。請從以下選項(A, B, C, D, EF)中選出適合各段落的首句,并在答題紙上將相應選項的標號涂黑。選項中有一項是多余選項。

A. Come in with something to say.

B. Prepare general comments.

C. Bring materials with you.

D. Don’t make them wait.

E. Have no fear.

F. Go it alone.

One of the best things you can do any time in the semester is go see the professor. So hoof on over to an office hour and have some one-on-one face time with someone who’ll help you master the material and improve your grade, to boot. But how should you have this conversation with the professor? Here are five insider tips about how to make that office hour really count:

1 No need to get all bent out of shape about going to see the professor. The professor would actually like to see you and answer your questions. Believe it or not, he or she is on your side and is eager to see you do well. And besides, he or she has seen many students stupider than you, so nothing you’re gong to ask will set the record for stupidity.

2 Even though you might feel more comfortable going with a friend or partner, the office hour will go better if it’s just you and the professor. You’ll get in more questions, the discussion will be tailored to what you need most help on, and two-party communication is almost always more productive than committee work. You friend can wait outside for the discussion.

3 If you can’t make the official office hours, most professors are willing to make individual, appointments to help you out. If you’re lucky enough to land such an accommodation, though, be sure you’re 100 percent on time. There’s nothing that ticks off a professor more than making him-or herself available for a custom office hour only to find that you don’t care enough to come on time. And besides, the professor might leave after ten minutes, which would make your trip a total loss.

4 If you’re meeting with the professor to go over a paper or test, or to ask questions about a particular lecture or reading, make sure you bring that paper or test, or your lecture notes or a copy of the article. The professor doesn’t remember the comments he or she wrote on your individual piece of work—though he or she will be able to recall them after just a brief glance at your work. And if you have your lecture notes or the article in hand, you and the professor will be able to examine specific points that are confusing to you, rather than just talking in a general way about the contents.

5 Office hours almost always go better if you bring a few specific questions to the meeting. It’s almost never good to start a meeting with general comments such as: “I didn’t understand what you said about [main topic of the course]”or “I couldn’t understand any of your lectures last week.” Much better is to come in with two or three conversation-starters, about a specific concept, point, or problem you didn’t understand. Keep in mind that in a fifteen-minute office hour (which is how long these things usually last), two or three questions are usually the most you’ll have time to discuss.
