4．Turning the lights out or wearing a blindfold while eating could be a quick way to lose weight，according to scientists．The simple trick works because it stops diners eating for pleasure rather than for calories．It also triggers （引發(fā)） a part of the brain that is worried that unseen food may go bad．
An experiment by the University of Konstanz，in Germany，found that people who were blindfolded consumed nine percent fewer calories before they felt full，compared to those who could see．They also vastly overestimated how much they had eaten because they could not see how much was left on the plate．Blindfolded volunteers estimated（估計） they had eaten 88percent more than they actually had．
Scientists believe that not seeing food on the table also allows the body to know when it is full in real time rather than remembering past experiences where it might have taken a full plate to feel full．
In the experiment，50people were blindfolded and 40were allowed to see their food．All were told not to eat within two hours of the experiment．They were then given three 95g bowls of chocolate ice cream and invited to eat for 15minutes．Their bowls were taken away and the remaining ice-cream weighed，while the participants were quizzed on how much they thought they had eaten．
On average the group who could see ate 116g while the blindfolded groups ate 105g．However，the blindfolded group believed they had eaten 197g while compared with 159g for the non-blind volunteers．They were also asked how pleasant the ice-cream tasted and the blindfolded group rated lower than those who could see．
"The experienced pleasure of eating was significantly lower in the blindfolded group．Not seeing the food might have decreased the appetite．Sight plays an important role in the eating experience and in the overall dining experience．"
Previous studies have shown that the visual influence of food plays a large part in the taste．While restaurants that allow diners to eat in the dark state that it triggers other senses，in fact eating in darkness is likely to taste far milder than usual．
25．With the lights out，diners eat less partly becauseD．
A．they want to quickly finish their meals 
B．they trust their feelings more than ever
C．they focus more on fun than the calories
D．they worry about the quality of the food
26．We can learn from the passage that the blindfolded groupB．
A．spent a much longer time eating the same food   
B．believed they ate more than they really did
C．depended on past experiences to feel full        
D．thought the food tasted better than usual
27．The last two paragraphs tell us thatA．
A．diners are likely to lose their appetite eating in darkness
B．senses rather than sight play an important role in the taste
C．findings of this experiment differ from the previous studies
D．restaurants benefit a lot from allowing diners to eat in the dark
28．The main purpose of the passage is toC．
A．provide statistics related to eating in the dark
B．offer reasons for people to eat in the dark areas
C．inform the readers of the result of an experiment
D．persuade the readers to lose weight in a new way．

14．A．Means of e-waste recycling
    B．How e-waste coming into being
    C．The benefit of e-waste recycling
    D．The technologies of e-waste recycling
    E．The importance of recycling e-waste
    F．Modern technology bringing convenience and e-waste
61．FModern technology does bring us much convenience，from Wi-Fi （無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)） enabled cell phones and ever-smaller laptop computers that make our entire lives easy to energy-efficient washers that use half the power and time to complete their tasks． However，these new toys and equipment finally become electronic waste （ e-waste） once they are out of use．
62．B  
 E-waste includes everything from empty printer ink containers to broken refrigerators． As people buy new items to replace aging electronics or make updates，more electronic waste comes into being． In some cases，such as 2009's switch from analog （模糊） to digital television broadcasting in the United States，changes in technology are so great that old equipment may not even work at all with new systems．
63．EThere are many reasons why it is important to recycle electronic waste． Much of the material used to construct electronics，including metal and plastic parts，can be recycled into new items at a discount of the cost and energy use needed to create things from new raw materials． Additionally，many electronics contain poisonous substances that are harmful to the environment and could be deadly if they go into an area's groundwater． When  properly recycled，they can be reused and will not do harm to the environment． Because of the environment concerns，many areas require by law that electronic waste be properly recycled．
64．AThe availability of e-waste recycling programs varies from place to place． In some areas，collections are held once or twice a year as a means of dealing with e-waste as well as used engine oil or other waste that is harmful to the environment，There are also some good alternatives to recycling your e-waste． Any items that are in working condition can be given to friends or donated to charities like Goodwill or The Salivation Army，who rely heavily on donations． Freecycling，or passing on your unwanted items to those in need of them，is also a means of finding new homes for used items．
65．C E-waste recycling helps protect the environment by reducing the amount of poisonous materials placed in landfills （廢物填埋場） and saving recyclable parts to save energy and other resources． Recycling is a way of life． Once we have made that choice to carry out all the steps of recycling in our daily lives，and stick to that choice every single day，recycling becomes second nature to us．
