Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults.

A study，which included nearly 1，400 high school students，found those who watched TV for five hours or more per day had less healthy diets than peers(同齡人）five years later. Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?

On the one hand，people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers，may snack more，and that may affect their long-term diet quality.

On the other hand，TV ads for fast food，sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.

Lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson，of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis，told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food , those who'd watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收)of fruits，vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food. In her opinion，parents should limit and monitor TV viewing.

As far as I am concerned，children should watch no more than two hours of television per day. And parents should set a good example by eating right，being physically active and curbing their own TV time.

1.What's the best title for this passage?

A. People should keep away from TV to keep healthy.

B. Teenagers' TV time may affect their diets later.

C. Why do teenagers like TV"

D. Parents' own habits may affect children later.

2.According to the passage，heavy TV viewers tend to＿．

A. eat more fruits B. eat less junk food

C. take in fewer vegetables D. take in high-calcium food

3.What suggestion does the author give the parents？

A. They must watch TV with their children.

B. They should forbid the children to watch TV.

C. They should pay attention to nutrition in diets.

D. They can't do what they don't want their children to do.

4.The underlined word“curbing" in the last paragraph can be replaced by

A. adding B. checking

C. controlling D. stopping

Scientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the world’s biggest pyramids: the Pyramid of the Sun, north of Mexico City. They’re putting lots of small, high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.

The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.

In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah AL Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms—the Queen’s Chamber, the Grand Gallery and the King’s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find the treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King’s mummy and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The huge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when AL Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?

Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.

In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stone door.

1.The first two paragraphs were written to show that ____.

A. ancient Egyptian emperors were cruel

B. the Pyramid of the Sun is an unusual historic building

C. construction workers led a hard life in ancient Egypt

D. the secrets of the pyramids remain to be uncovered

2.What is the purpose of making some secret doors to the pyramids? _______.

A. To try to unlock some of its secrets

D. To tell the truth to the people in the future

3.Which of the following is NOT true to the Great Pyramid of Khufu?

A. It is the largest pyramid in the world.

B. It is the only one of the ancient wonders that is still standing.

C. Abdullah AL Manum took the King’s mummy and his treasures away.
