9.Is a recently discovered hormone the reason why folks who lose weight can't keep it off?
Like millions of other fat people,at 530inches high,more than 300pounds,Carnie Wilson was not just fat.After trying all sort of diets that didn't work,she has to go to the stomach-bypass surgery (胃部迂回手术),ie,have most of her stomach sewed up,only leaving tiny room to hold several tablespoonfuls at most.Result:she simply couldn't eat the way she used to.In three years,Wilson is one third of her former weight.
Wilson's experience is not all that unusual,and while doctors still aren't exactly sure what is going on,a report in last week's Journal of Medicine offers an explanation.The loss of appetite in bypass patients may be linked to a recently discovered hormone called ghrelin.Not only that,ghrelin may turn out to be one reason we feel hungry and it's hare for didters to keep weight off.
Nowadays,researchers are careful to stress only what they know for sure.For the three conclusions,the leading Dr.David of the University of Washington says,"I feel very solid about two of them."The first is that ghrelin levels in the bloodstream rise significantly before meals and drop afterward.The second conclusion is that ghrelin levels are higher on average in people who have lost weight from dieting.
Dr.David is less sure of the third conclusion,that bypass patients have only a quarter as much ghrelin as most people of normal weight.After all,ghrelin is produced by cells in the stomach.Years ago,leptin,a hormone was found as an appetite suppressant (食物抑制剂).But after years of trying,it had to be given up.
What doctors suspect is that both leptin and ghrelin are part of a complex system of brain and body chemicals that govern weight and appetite.That does not mena pharmaceutical (药物的) weight control is forever out of the question."In the next ten years,we will be able to develop new drugs to help people lose weight healthily and effectively."

47.What can we learn about ghrelin according to the passage?D
A.After meals ghrelin levels are higher in the bloodstream.
B.People who have lost weight have less ghreilin in their body.
C.Without ghrelin,people are really difficult to lose weight.
D.Ghrelin is something produced by cells in the stomach.
48.What is Dr.David not sure?B
A.pharmaceutical weight control is impossible.
B.There is less ghrelin in the bypass patients.
C.new drugs will be developed in 10years.
D.ghrelin levels are higher in people on diet.
49.In fact,people's weight and appetite are controlled byC
A.ghrelin and leptin             B.hormone and medicine
C.brain and body chemicals       D.stomach and food
50.What can we infer from the passage?C
A.People with a lower ghrelin level go hungry easily.
B.Doctors managed to use leption to control the appetite.
C.Doctors are optimistic about how to lose weight healthily.
D.The loss of appetite in bypass aptient is linked to leptin.

20.As an English teacher,one of the most common problems I've found with my students is their lack of confidence with speaking,and difficulty in understanding native speakers.Another problem could be that a foreign language taught in schools can sound quite different to what native speakers actually use.
There are a few English words and expressions that I'd never heard until I came to China.The most common one in my experience is"How are you?I'm fine,thank you,and you?"
I appreciate that although this greeting is much too formal for everyday use-it's easy to learn and helps build confidence.However,it can be a hard habit to break.I've seen many parents correct their kids if they don't use that exact phrase,as if simply replying"I'm fine"would somehow be rude.In fact I'm banning my students from saying that in the classroom,insisting a simple"I'm fine,thanks"is good enough.
"Seldom"is another one that I find interesting.The first time a student told me"I seldom watch TV",my initial reaction was a stupefied look,followed by"Huh?"I then realized the student used"seldom"when it's more common for us to use"rarely."
I was just as confused when I first heard a toilet referred to as a WC (water closet),another English term I'd never heard of back in Australia.Of course,my students know the other names for it like bathroom,toilet,washroom etc.so to prefer that name is an interesting choice.
I don't mind that my students have substituted familiar English words with their own,far from it.It reminds me how creative they can be with not only their language,but with mine as well.It's healthy for English to evolve (进化) and change and I'm happy to add these new words to my vocabulary.
One important lesson I've learnt is that textbooks can only help you so much.For further improvement you'd better practice with native speakers.
61.What does the article mainly tell about?C
A.Learning English needs confidence.
B.Native speakers are hard to understand.
C.Chinese-English has something different.
D.Chinese students are more creative.
62.The problem with the reply"I'm fine,thank you,and you?"is that it isB.
A.too long to remember                 B.not popular with native speakers
C.sometimes misunderstood              D.considered impolite by native speakers
63.The writer mentioned parents correcting their kids to show that in ChinaB.
A.speaking English at home has become a habit
B.the exact reply has been trained into a habit
C.some parents are not qualified to teach English
D.children don't always obey their teachers
64.It's possible for us to hear an Australian say"WeDuse the term‘D'for a toilet."
A.seldom;  bathroom                    B.rarely;  washroom
C.seldom;  WC                      D.rarely;  WC
65.What is the writer's attitude towards his students using Chinese-English?A
A.He's tolerant
B.He's angry.
C.He feels uncomfortable
D.He pays no attention.
