根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。
________1._______________: less red meat and more fibre, less saturated fat(饱和脂肪) and more fruit and veg, right? Wrong, according to a controversial new book by nutritionist Zoe Harcombe.In the book, Harcombe charts her careful journey of research into studies that underpin (巩固)dietary advice — and her myth(误区)-breaking conclusions are surprising.
Myth: ________2._________.
‘Real fat is not bad for us,’ says ¬Harcombe. ‘It’s man-made fats we should be demonising. Why do we have this idea that meat is full of saturated fat? In a 100g pork chop, there is 2.3g of unsaturated fat and 1.5g of saturated fat.
Myth: We should eat more fibre.
For three decades, we have eaten fibre into our bodies to help us feel full and keep our digestive systems moving. ______3.________, says Harcombe.
The advice to eat more fibre is put forward along with the theory that we need to clean our ¬digestive systems. But essential minerals are absorbed from food while it is in the intestines(肠道), so why do we want to wash everything out? Concentrate on not putting bad foods in.
Myth: You need to eat five portions of fruit and veg a day.
‘Five-a-day is the most well-known piece of nutritional advice,’ says ¬Harcombe. ‘You’d think it was based on firm evidence of health benefit. _______4._______
‘Five-a-day started as a marketing campaign by 25 fruit and veg companies and the American National Cancer Institute in 1991. There was no evidence for any cancer benefit.’
Myth: Fruit and veg are the most nutritious things to eat.
Apparently not. Harcombe allows that vegetables are a great addition to the diet — if served in butter to deliver the fat-soluble(dissolved) vitamins they contain — but ¬natural sugar, the fruit sugar in fruit, goes straight to the liver and is stored as fat.
__________5.____________, says Harcombe, who adds: ‘Vitamins and minerals in animal foods — meat, fish, eggs and dairy products — beat those in fruit hands down.’
A. want to lose weight ? Don’t trust these.
B. We think we know what to eat.
C. This is not a good idea.
D. Fat is bad for us
E. Think again
F. We need take more exercise
G. Fruit is best avoided by those trying to lose weight

Chinese politeness have always been formal to follow strict rules, although sometimes Chinese people seem to be impolite according to Western standards in public places. To well understand Chinese, some concepts should not be ignored.
Mianzi
The idea of shame, usually expressed as 'face' could be loosely defined as the 'status' or 'self-respect' in Chinese and by no means alien to foreigners. It is the worst thing for a Chinese to lose face. Never insult, embarrass, shame, yell at or otherwise demean a person. Since all these actions would risk putting a Chinese in a situation that he might lose face, neither try to prove someone wrong nor shout at him in public. In order to get a successful effect without letting a Chinese lose face, any criticism should be delivered privately, carefully, or else, just opposite to what you wish.
Guanxi
Throughout much of Chinese history, the fundamental glue that has held society together is the concept of guanxi, relationships between people. It is very important for the Chinese to have good relationships. They often regard good social relations as a symbol of personal ability and influence. Someone who has no connections would be disrespected and is only half-Chinese.
Keqi
Keqi not only means considerate, polite, and well mannered, but also represents respect and modesty. It is impolite to talk too proudly about oneself or one's inner circle. The expression is most often used in the negative, as in buyao keqi, meaning "you shouldn't be so kind and polite to me," or "you're welcome."
Besides, Chinese seldom express what they think directly and they prefer a roundabout way. Neither show their emotions and feelings in public. They rarely greet people with a handshake, though it is very popular among foreigners, and say nothing of embracing or kissing when greeting or saying good-bye. Consequently, it is better not to behave too carefree in public, even though you are well-intentioned. Also, it is advisable to be fairly cautious in political discussions. Do not particularly push yourself forward, or else you are unwelcome.
To sum up, do in Rome as Rome does, but you need not worry about these cultural barriers since most Chinese are hospitable and friendly and will not mind your no accomplishment.
1.In most Chinese’s eyes, the fundamental glue holding society together is the idea of ____.
A. relationships between people B. influences upon others
C. dependence on others D. kindness to others
2.The underlined word
“demean” in the first paragraph means make people _____.
A. respectful B. happy C. shameful D. weak
3.Which of the
following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. It is impolite to insult, embarrass, shame or shout at a person.
B. It is polite that you should bring gifts to others when invited to dinner.
C. It is necessary to show your character of being considerate, polite, and well mannered.
D. It is important for the Chinese to have good relationships between people.
4. Which of the following proverbs has the same meaning as the underlined sentence “Do in Rome as Rome does.”?
A. Caution is the parent of safety. B. Many hands make light work.
C. There’s no smoke without fire. D. If you are elsewhere, live as they do there.

Alaskan black bears hibernate for up to seven months a year, during which time they do not eat or drink, before waking up in virtually the same physical state they fell asleep in．
Now experts hope to develop methods of putting humans into a similar state which could help astronauts survive long missions and lead to new ways of treating severely ill patients．
While many studies have examined hibernation in mice and hedgehogs, little research has been done into the same condition in larger mammals such as bears．
But new research conducted at the Institute of Arctic Biology at the University of Alaska monitored the animals' body temperature, heart rate and muscle movements while they slept.
The research results showed that during a five-month hibernation the bears’ body temeratures varied between 30℃ and 36℃ in cycles that lasted between two and seven days—a pattern that was previously unknown in hibernating animals.
The research project leader said, "If our research could help by showing how to reduce metabolic(新陈代谢的) rates and oxygen demands in human tissues, one could possibly save severely ill patients. We simply need to know how to turn things on and off to take advantage of the different levels of hibernation."
Craig Heller, of Stanford University, who contributed to the study, added: "There has always been a thought that, if there is ever long-distance space travel, it would be good to be able to put people into a state of lower metabolism or a state of hibernation. That's almost science fiction but you can see the logical basis."
1.We know from the text that .
A．during winter Alaskan black bears sleep for more than half a year
B．researchers have examined hibernation in humans
C．experts have got no results from their research
D．Craig Heller is a leader from the Institute of Arctic Biology
2.The best topic of the text should be ．
． A．The Latest Research Results
B．New Methods of Putting Humans into Hibernation
C．Alaskan Black Bears Hibernate
D．Astronauts Could Hibernate Like Bears
3.According to the text, we can infer that .
A．many studies have examined hibernation in mice and bears as well
B．humans' body temperatures vary between 30℃ and 36℃ while they sleep
C．research into hibernation in animals may help deadly patients stay longer
D．scientists have already take advantage of the different levels of hibernation in space missions

Recently Dr. Cleiman has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you are “hot”. That is true, the time of day when you feel most energetic (full of energy) is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak(top). For some people the peak comes during the forenoon(上午前). For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so.
Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what this energy cycle means and which cycle each member of the family has.
You cannot change your cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. “Habits can help,” Dr. Cleiman believes. If your energy cycle is low in the morning but you have an important job early in the day, rise before your usual hour, and then you will work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a lazy yawn(哈欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of bed before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.
1. Dr. Cleiman did not explain in the passage ___________.
A. how people can make their life fit their cycle
B. whether everyone has a daily cycle or not
C. why people have their energy cycle of body at different times

A. Either of them gets up late in the morning.
B. Husbands and wives have different cycles of energy.

3.According to the passage,____________.
A. one should get up earlier if he wants to work better at his low point in the morning
B. one can change his cycle
C. whenever you feel hot, your energy cycle reaches the highest
D. your cycle must be in the morning if you can get up early
4.Which of the following can save your energy in the morning?

During the school year many parents take on the role of driver as they drive their children from one lesson to another. It can be understood that many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything, from organized sports to music, dance and more. But we overdo it, leaving our children feeling a little tired, and according to parent educator Diane Loisie, it’s their school work that suffers the most. “After school, if they’re busy in a number of sporting events, besides they need to do their homework, then the time they’ll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if you’re filling up that after school time, then it’s during the day they’re going to be taking a break. ”
Professor Claire McDermott agrees that there’s a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those planned lessons and activities away. “Relaxing time is important for children. It’s time just to do the things they want to do. A child can go up to their room, or they can play around. It doesn’t look like useful time; parents certainly wouldn’t be saying ‘Wow, are they ever learning things now?’ But this relaxing time gives both the body and the brain just a wonderful chance to relax after a day. It helps a child prepare for sleep, but it also helps to understand the learning that’s gone on that day. ”
It’s hard to prevent signing our kids up for some activities and lessons. After all, many of us want our children to have a head start in life and the chance to join in great activities in the arts or sports is a part of that. However, Loisie feels that in the long run most children feel better with just a few key activities because it gives them an opportunity to master them. “When we get our children in too many activities because we want our children to experience everything, then what we’re doing is setting them up not to be good at one thing or gaining a skill. ” So choose your children’s activities wisely. It may be one of the best things you’ve ever done for your kids… and for the family driver!
1.What is the biggest disadvantage for children to attend too many lessons after school?
A. They can get bored easily about everything.
B. They might have no time to do the homework.
C. They might not pay much attention to learning.
D. They cannot easily focus on learning during the day.
2.What should we think of children’s playing around aimlessly?
A. It is simple.
B. It is helpful.
C. It is a bad habit.
D. It is a waste of time.
3. Why should parents limit the activities our children attend?
A. Because children have no time.
B. Because children cannot learn many things.
C. Because children do not have enough sleep.
D. Because children cannot focus on too many activities.
4.What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Don’t be children’s drivers after school.
B. Choose activities for your children wisely.
C. Make your children learn as much as possible.
D. Let children learn something from various subjects.
