Now, the VOA Special English program WORDS AND THEIR STORIES.

People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word mouth. But some of them are not so nice.

For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest and say “Do not bad mouth me.”

Sometimes, people say something to a friend or a family member that they later regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” If this should happen, the speaker might feel down in the mouth. In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.

Another situation is when someone falsely claims another person said something. The other person might protest: “I did not say that. Do not put words in my mouth.”

Information is often spread through word of mouth. This is general communication between people, like friends talking to each other. “How did you hear about that new movie?” someone might ask. “Oh, by word of mouth.” A more official way of getting information is through a company or government mouthpiece. This is an official spokesperson. Government-run media could also be called a mouthpiece.

Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend was going to say. When this happens, the friend might say: “You took the words right out of my mouth!” Sometimes a person has a bad or unpleasant experience with another person. He might say that experience “left a bad taste in my mouth.” Or the person might have had a very frightening experience, like being chased by an angry dog. He might say: “I had my heart in my mouth.”

Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. There is an expression for this, too. You might say such a person, “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.” This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from hand to mouth. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.

Parents might sometimes withhold sweet food from a child as a form of punishment for saying bad things. For example, if a child says things she should not say to her parents, she might be described as a mouthy child. The parents might even tell the child to stop mouthing off.

But enough of all this talk. I have been running my mouth long enough.

1.Which of the following can best describe his or her feeling if a speaker feels down in the mouth?

A. Delighted B. Regretful

C. Disappointed D. Respectful

2.When your car was close to knocking into a truck, you might say “_______”

A. I really put my foot in my mouth this time.

B. I had my heart in my mouth.

C. I live from hand to mouth.

D.I get to know it by word of mouth.

3.According to the passage, which behavior is surely Not welcome?

a. bad mouthing somebody

b. mouthing off about something

c. putting words in somebody’s mouth

d. taking the words right out of somebody’s mouth

A. abc B. abd C. bcd D. acd

4.What do “I” probably (in the last Para.) do?

A. A host B. A journalist

C. A director D. A listener

Eating at a slow speed may help reduce hunger, the U.S. researchers said on Monday. Previous research suggests that the ability to control energy intake may be affected by the speed at which we eat, and a high eating rate may damage the relationship between the sensory signals and processes that control how much we eat.

In order to learn more about the link between eating speed and energy intake, researchers examined how eating speed affects calories consumed during a meal in both normal-weight subjects as well as overweight or obese subjects.

In the new study, a group of normal-weight subjects and a group of overweight or obese subjects were asked to consume two meals in a controlled environment. All subjects ate one meal slowly, took small bites, chewed thoroughly, and paused and put the spoon down between bites, and are a second meal quickly, took large bites, chewed quickly, and did not pause and put the spoon down.

At the conclusion of the study, the researchers found only normal-weight subjects had a statistically significant reduction in caloric consumption by eating slowly. “A lack of statistical significance in the overweight and obese group may be partly due to the fact that they consumed less food during both eating conditions compared to the normal-weight subjects,” Professor Meena Shah said, “it is possible that the overweight and obese subjects felt more self-conscious, and thus ate less during the study.”

Despite the differences in caloric consumption between the normal-weight and overweight and obese subjects, the study found some similarities. Both groups felt less hungry later on after the slow meal than after the fast meal, which indicates that greater hunger suppression(抑制)among both groups could be expected from a meal consumed more slowly. Also, both the normal-weight and overweight or obese groups consumed more water during the slow meal. “The higher water intake during the slow eating condition may have affected food consumption,” said Shah. According to Shah, slowing the speed of eating may help suppress hunger levels and “may even improve the enjoyment of a meal”.

The findings were published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

1.What does the previous study have in common with the new one?

A. There is a link between eating speed and energy intake.

B. Eating at a slow speed may help feel hungry.

C. Eating too fast may impair your stomach.

D. Eating rate may affect processes controlling how much we eat.

2.What should the subjects do during the research?

A. Both groups could totally eat the meals at any speed as they liked.

B. Both groups had to consume one meal in controlled eating conditions.

C. Both groups were asked to eat one meal slowly while the other quickly.

D. One group should eat slowly while the other one quickly.

3.What caused the lack of statistically significant reduction in the overweight and obese group?

A. They were told not to eat a lot.

B. In the study they had no appetite to eat.

C. They lost consciousness in the study.

D. They ate less food on purpose.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. New research findings about how to control eating rate.

B. A study about the link between eating speed and energy intake.

C. One may feel less hungry later on after the slow meal than after the fast meal.

D. Water intake may have affected food consumption.

Your best friend is possibly the most important person in your life. But sometimes friendship’s road is not always smooth, or it’s a total dead end. What do you do when this happens?

Scenario(设想) 1: Drifting Apart(渐行渐远)

You’ve found that your friend no longer wants to jog (慢跑)with you. She’d rather hit the chat rooms, or she’s become crazy about hanging with her new interest.

It’s a bummer when old friends start having less in common. But it might still be worth trying to get into your friend’s new interest, trying something new on your own, or meet some new folks who like doing the things you enjoy. Another thing to try is talking to your friend about it- in a non-this-is-your-fault(过错) way. The goal is telling how you feel, not “winning”.

Scenario 2: Fights

“Yes, he is.” “No, he isn’t.” the argument could continue forever.

No matter how sure you are that you’re right, friendship is based on RESPECT. Since you and your friend aren’t clones(克隆), you will disagree sometimes! Is it worth fighting over? If it is trivial(无价值的), why not give it up? Agree to disagree(保留不同意见) and get on well with life. Even if you’ll never agree, try to see the other person’s viewpoint. At least honor his right to have his own opinions. Never get physical. Violence can make a small problem into a disaster.

Scenario 3: End of the Road

Is the friendship over? If you are not the one ending it, it feels as if a knife cut your heart into pieces. But the thing is that you can’t force someone to be your friend. Give yourself time. But don’t freeze in a looking-back, holding pattern(模式). Be open to new friendship. You never know when the “best friend forever” will come along.

1.The underlined word “bummer” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “________ thing”.

A. normal B. common

C. unpleased D. guilty(负疚的)

2.You are advised not ______ when your friend reduced communication with you.

A. develop the same interest as our friend does

B. blame(责怪) your friend for not being as friendly to you as before

C. give in to the friend who has hurt your feeling deeply

D. stick to the friendship that was built up in the past

3.In the writer’s opinion, showing disagreement ______________.

A. will surely lead to the end of a long friendship

B. shows that you don’t respect your friend

C. is natural and normal behavior of human being

D. means you have nothing in common with your friend.

4.The purpose of the passage is to teach you ________________.

A. how to mend a broken friendship

B. how to keep a long friendship

C. what to do when a friendship changes

D. what to do to win new friends
