6.In the United States,30 percent of the people have a"weight problem".To many people the cause is obvious (明顯的):they eat too much.But scientific evidence (證據(jù)) does little to support this idea.Going back to America of 1910,we find that people were thinner than today,yet they ate more food.In those days people worked harder physically,walked more,used machines much less,and didn't watch television.
Several modern studies,moreover,have shown that fatter people don't eat more on average than thinner people.A 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers showed that fat people eat less than slim (苗條的) people.
Studies also show that slim people are more active than fat people.A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting facts:
The more the man ran,the greater loss of the body fat.
The more they ran,the greater increase in food intake.
Thus,those who ran the most ate the most,yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.
29.Nowadays many Americans have the problem thatC.
A.they are too slim              
B.they work too hard
C.they are too fat           
D.they lose too much body fat
30.According to the passage,how many people in 900 Americans have a"weight problem"?D
A.150.B.300.C.600.D.270.
31.Is there any scientific evidence to support the idea that eating too much is the cause of a"weight problem"?C
A.Yes,there is plenty of evidence.
B.Of course,there is some evidence to support this.
C.There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.
D.We are not sure.
32.The Americans in 1910A.

B.a(chǎn)te less food but had more physical activities
C.a(chǎn)te less food and had less physical activities

Tips to fight summer weight gain 
When we think of summer,most of us think of outdoor fun.So it seems like we should naturally lose weight over the summer---not gain it.In reality,though,summer isn‘t all beach volleyball and water sports.Lots of summer activities can work against our efforts to stay at a healthy weight.The good news is that it‘s easy to avoid problems if we know what to look out for.Here are 5 ways to beat summer weight gain:
(61)C When we don‘t have a plan,it‘s easy to spend summer moving from couch to computer,with regular stops at the fridge.Avoid this by setting a specific aim,like volunteering,mastering a new skill,or working at a job.Just be sure to plan for some downtime so you can relax a little!
(62)F With school out,we lose our daily routines.If you don‘t have a specific job or activity to get up for,it‘s easy to sleep late,watch too much TV,and snack more than usual.Make sure your summer days have some structure-like getting up at the same time each day and eating meals at set times.Plan activities for specific times,like exercising before breakfast,for example.If you have time on your hands,offer to make dinner a couple of nights a week so your family can enjoy a sit-down meal together.
(63)A When we‘re bored,it‘s easy to fall into a trap of doing nothing and then feeling low on energy.In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar,filling your days with stuff to do can give you a sense of accomplishment.That‘s especially true if a dream summer job or planned activity fell through.Limit your screen time-including TV,computer,and video games-to no more than 2 hours a day.
(64)B Don‘t let hot summer days prevent you from carrying out exercise plans.Move your workout indoors.If a gym isn‘t your scene,try bowling or an indoor climbing wall.If you love being outdoors,try joining a local pool or move a regular run or soccer game to early morning or evening.
(65)ESummer means picnics and barbecues-activities that revolve around an unlimited spread of food.Pace yourself.Don‘t overload your plate.Avoid going back for seconds and thirds.Choose seasonal,healthy foods like fresh fruit instead of high-sugar,high-fat desserts.Make catching up with family and friends your focus,not the food.Another good tip for summer eating is to limit frozen treats like ice cream to no more than once a week.

11.You go to a store to buy food for a party.But when you get to the cash register,there are no plastic bags for the things you buy.If you live in San Francisco,this situation might not surprise you.(71)FMany cities and towns around the United States may ban plastic bags.(72)GInstead,they'd like people to use their own cloth bags when they shop.(73)DThey say they wouldn't buy as much if they couldn't get a free bag.Store owners don't want to lose business.So they want to keep offering plastic bags.
Stores should be banned from using plastic bags.Here's why:
All those plastic bags fill up garbage dumps (垃圾站).That hurts the environment.
People can use cloth bags instead.(74)AStores should not be banned from using plastic bags.Here's why:
People might buy less if stores don't offer plastic shopping bags.Some stores might go out of business.
Some people reuse plastic shopping bags for things like garbage.If they don't get them for free,they'll have to buy some.(75)CThat could get expensive.

A.These bags don't get thrown away until they've been used many times.
B.There should always be a choice.
C.If shoppers forgot a cloth bag,they would have to buy one.
D.But many people don't want to buy their own cloth bags.
E.Many people throw them away after using them.
F.That city has banned most plastic shopping bags from stores.
G.They hope that shoppers won't use paper bags either.

18.Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness,but Dr.Kleitman has a new explanation.He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labour through your work,you may say that you're"hot".That's true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak.For some people that peak comes during the forenoon.For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues(自言自語)as"Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!"The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can make your life fit it better.Habit can help.Dr.Kleitman believes.Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway.Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour.This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up energy and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy.Get up with a yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor.Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.

32.If you want to work better at your low point in the morning,you shouldC.
A.change your energy cycle                        
B.overcome your laziness
C.get up earlier than usual                            
D.go to bed earlier
33.You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it willA.
A.help to keep your energy for the day's work
B.help you to control your temper early in the day
C.enable you to get your energy on your routine work
D.keep your energy cycle under control all day
34.What's the best title of the passage?C
A.Change Your Habits                                        
B.Save Your Energy
C.Daily Energy Cycle                                        
D.Temperature-and-Energy Peak

11.The"melting pot"in American cuisine(菜肴.烹飪法) is a myth,not terribly unlike the idea of a melting pot of American culture,notes chef Dan Barber."Most cultures don't think about their cuisine in such monolithic(統(tǒng)一的) terms,"he says."French,Mexican,Chinese,and Italian cuisines each consist of dozens of distinct regional foods.And I think"American'cuisine is moving in the same direction,becoming more localized,not globalized."
American cuisine is shaped by the natural wealth of the country.Having never faced agricultural hardship,Americans don't have to rely on rotating crops,such as the Japanese,whose food culture now showcases buckwheat (蕎麥) alongside rice,or the Indians,or the French and Italians,who feature beans alongside wheat."That kind of negotiation with the land forced people to incorporate(接受) those crops in to the culture,"says Barber.And so eating soba noodles becomes part of what it means to be Japanese,and eating beans becomes part of what it means to be French.
So if what we eat is what we are,what are Americans?Well,meat."If Americans have any unifying food identity,I would say we are a mostly white meat culture,"says Barber."The protein-centric dinner plate,whether you're talking about a boneless chicken breast,or a 16-ounce steak,as an everyday expectation is something that America really created,and now exports to the rest of the world."
Every single culture and religion uses food as part of their celebrations,says Ellen Gustafson,co-founder of the FEED Project and The 30Project,which aims to deal with both hunger and overweight issues globally."The celebratory nature of food is universal.Every season,every harvest,and every holiday has its own food,and this is true in America as well.It helps define us."

24.According to the first paragraph,American cuisineA.
A.consists of varieties of regional foods     
B.is becoming more and more globalized
C.has absorbed a lot from Chinese cuisine   
D.is not as unified as its culture
25.What has made American cuisine different from other cuisines according to the article?D
A.Relying on rotating crops    
B.The difficulty of planting crops
C.The US'melting pot culture 
D.The US'agricultural wealth
26.We can conclude from the article thatC has become part of what it means to be American.
A.eating rice  B.eating beans  C.eating white meat  D.eating soba noodles
27.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?C
A.American cuisine is healthier than other cuisines.
B.American cuisine hasn't changed much over time.
C.Americans use food as part of their celebrations.
D.Americans are quite proud of their own cuisine.
