【题目】Four Ways to Beat Summer Weight Gain

When we think of the summer holidaymost of us think of outdoor fun. So it seems like we should naturally lose weight over the summer holiday. In realitythe summer holiday isn’t all beach volleyball and water sports. Thereforewe can gain weight easily in the summer holiday.1 Here are four ways to beat summer weight gain.

1.2 When we don’t have a planit’s easy to spend the summer holiday moving from the couch to the computerwith regular stops before the fridge. Avoid this by aiming for a specific goallike volunteeringmastering a new skillor working at a job. Just be sure to plan for some free time so you can relax a little

2. Stay busy. When we’re boredit’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.3

3. Beat the heat. Don’t let summer heat put your exercise plans on hold.4 If a gym isn’t your scene try bowling or an indoor climbing wall. If you love being outdoors move a regular run or soccer game to early morning or evening.

4.5 With school out we lose our daily routines. If you don’t have a specific job or an activity to get up forit’s easy to sleep late watch too much TVand snack more than usual. Make sure your summer days have some structure—like getting up at the same time each day. Plan activities for specific timeslike exercising before breakfast.

A. Stick to a schedule.

B. Get going with goals.

C. Relax by walking outside.

D. Move your workout indoors.

E. We usually stay at home in the summer holiday.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文,就暑假如何避免增重这一问题向读者提了四条建议。

1由“ Thereforewe can gain weight easily in the summer holiday.___1___ Here are four ways to beat summer weight gain.”可知,因此,我们在暑假很容易增加体重。下面有四种方法可以战胜暑假增重。所以小题1要与前一句构成转折关系且承接下文。故G选项“然而,如果我们知道要注意什么,就很容易避免这个问题”符合句意。故G选项切题。

2由“Avoid this by aiming for a specific goallike volunteeringmastering a new skillor working at a job. Just be sure to plan for some free time so you can relax a little!”可知,要避免这种情况,就要树立一个特定的目标,比如志愿服务,掌握一项新技能,或者工作。一定要计划一些空闲时间,这样你能放松一点!所以本段主要讲假期树立目标的必要性也就是小题2本段小标题所要说明的内容。故B选项“树立目标”符合句意。故B选项切题。

3由“ In addition to helping you avoid the cookie jar filling your days with stuff to do can give you a sense of accomplishment”可知,除了帮助你避开饼干罐外,把你的一天安排的满满的会给你一种成就感。所以小题3要承接上文,具体说明哪种情况,更适于把假期安排的满满的,让自己忙碌起来。故选F项“如果你梦寐以求的暑期工作落空时,这尤其适用”。符合句意。故F选项切题。

4由“If a gym isn’t your scene try bowling or an indoor climbing wall.”可知,如果健身房不适合你,试试保龄球或室内攀岩墙。所以小题4要总说把你的锻炼搬到室内进行,然后在具体分说。故D选项“把你的锻炼搬到室内进行”符合句意。故D选项切题。

5由“Make sure your summer days have some structurelike getting up at the same time each day. Plan activities for specific timeslike exercising before breakfast.”可知,确保你的夏天有一些规律——比如每天在同一时间起床。计划活动的特定时期,像早餐前的锻炼。所以本段主要讲假期要坚持自己的计划表,要坚持良好的生活习惯也就是小题5本段小标题所要说明的内容。故A选项“坚持计划表”符合句意。故A选项切题。

Last year, my friend and I went to visit the Yellow Mountain. We carried two backpacks, that turned out to be pretty heavier for the hike. I was not an experiencing hiker and those endless steps make me want to return to the safe and comfortable ground. But my friend encouraged me great. "Look, the top is coming closer and closer. We are almost there." I pulled me together and kept going. After three-hour exhausting hike, and with wonderful sceneries on the way, we got to the top finally.

【题目】 An increase in students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (归因于)the global economic crisis awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.

Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January, according to UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service. A. spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.

Professor john Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecture at St Andrews University, said his first-year lectures---which are open to students from all departments—were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.

“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn’t traditionally done. ” he added.

University applications rose 7% last year. But there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with people’s renewed interest in careers in the public sector(部门), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.

A. recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.

Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “It’s possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation that’s financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”

1Professor John Beath’s lectures are __________.

A.given in a traditional wayB.connected with the present situation

C.open to both students and their parentsD.warmly received by economists

2In the opinion of most parents, ___________.

A.economists should be the focus of school teaching

B.more students should be admitted to universities

C.the teaching of financial matters should be strengthened.

D.children should solve financial problems themselves

3According to Hocking, the global economic crisis might make the youngsters ___________.

A.wiser in money managementB.have access to better equipment

C.confident about their future careersD.get jobs in Child Trust Funds

4What’s the main idea of the text?

A.Universities have received more applications.

B.Economics is attracting an increasing number of students

C.College students benefit a lot from economic uncertainty

D.Parents are concerned with children’s subject selection.

【题目】 Keeping a busy social life among lots of friends may keep people thinner than spending hours doing some exercises, according to scientists. They say that socializing and meeting with friends help increase levels of brown fat in the body which burns calories to produce heat.

Living in an exciting social environment was found to reduce fat in mice's belly by half over four weeks, even if they ate more. US researchers say that social excitement aids weight loss by turning white fat into brown. White fat stores calories and makes us fatter, while brown burns energy to produce heat. Turning white fat into brown is extremely difficult, normally requiring long- term stay in cold conditions or exciting part of the body's nervous system.

However, scientists from Ohio State University now think that having a busy social life is an even more effective way of changing white fat into brown. The team came up with their theory by studying the effects of various living environments on mice. Those, who lived alongside a greater number of mice, had more space and toys to excite themselves and then lost far more weight over the course of the study than their “couch potato" fellows.

Study author, Dr Matthew During, whose team's findings appear in the journal Cell Metabolism, said, "I'm still amazed at the degree of fat loss that occurs." Explaining how new technology had threatened face-to-face socializing, he added, "It's not just a sedentary (久坐的) lifestyle and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social activities." Co-author Dr Lei Cao said"Loneliness is a potential factor for cancer and death; it's equal to cigarette smoking to a certain extent. Social activities are very vital.

1What information can we get from the first two paragraphs?

A.Brown fat stores calories and makes us fatter

B.It doesn't take long to turn white fat into brown.

C.Social excitement helps gain more weight

D.Brown fat can burn energy to produce heat.

2Which of the following statement does the text support?

A.Levels of brown fat can be increased by socializing.

B.The mice lacking social life lose more weight.

C.The research findings haven't been published so far.

D.Dr Matthew During wasn't convinced of the result.

3We can conclude from the text that _______.

A.the fat in mice's belly was reduced because of the relaxing environment

B.a sedentary lifestyle and high calories foods influence people's social life

C.surfing the Internet may influence people's face-to-face communication

D.cancer and death are mainly caused for lack of social life
