阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A glass a day keeps obesity at bay.Alcohol has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content, but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet.Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight, those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.
A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain”.The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol Research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that current data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.
Boston University’s Dr.Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms (生物学机制) relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病),which relate to increasing obesity.Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.
The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods.They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.
For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese.What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that reveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine, destroys fat cells.
1.The passage is mainly for those ______.
A. who produce wine B. who are eager to lose weight
C. who go on a diet D. who have a drinking habit
2.The underlined phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph means ______.
A. properly B. carefully
C. excitedly D. frequently
3.Why has alcohol been thought to cause weight gain?
A. Because its calories are stored in fat.
B. Because it is rich in sugar.
C. Because it changes drinking patterns.
D. Because it increases the risk of diabetes.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear.
B. Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat.
C. The research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect.
D. Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.
5.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A. How to do some easy experiments.
B. How to prove the finding mentioned above.
C. How to make wine in a healthy way.
D. How to reduce the calories contained in wine.

Robotic Puppy
Roll over,sit and fetch aren’t commands normally given to a robot,but the smart toy company WowWee has developed a new way of owning a puppy.
CHIP (Canine Home Intelligent Pet) is a robotic dog with blue LED eyes and pointy ears and can sit,shake,dance and make all types of dog noises.It also has tracking capabilities to help locate its owner.“The beauty about CHIP is that it has its own thing going on,” said Sufer,CTO at WowWee.“It has its own life and own kind of intelligence.Even if you’re not around,it’s always doing something.”
CHIP uses wheels to get around and is loaded with sensors(传感器) that give it a 360-degree view to find its ball.The pup is Bluetooth enabled,which connects to a wristband worn by its owner.The wristband,similar to a watch,displays icons(图标)for different commands such as a thumb-up,which allows you to give your pup a digital belly ruB. With its owner wearing a smart wristband,it can even follow him around the room.
“We worked on CHIP for about five to six months,” Davin Sufer,told dailymail.com,“We typically come up with a concept,model and product and get it on shelves within a year.” The company plans to start shipping units by next fall,which will allow them to load up the robotic dog with sensors and add many more animated responses per-owner interactivity.
The high-tech toy company made its debut(处女作)in 2004 by releasing the 1.5 foot RoboSapien,which sold millions of units.MiP,which hit shelves last year,is a seven inch tall robot covered in white with black accents.Users can direct it,change its emotions and make it dance to any song on your iPad. It’s loud,fast and active.
About 15 years ago,a company called ToyQuest developed the first ever electronic robotic dog---Tekno,the Robotic Puppy.The company sold over seven million units in the first season and 40 million more during its original four years of production.Tekno was built with over 160 emotions and instructions,but most importantly offered consumers a quick look into the future.
1.According to Sufer,the amazing characteristic of CHIP is that _____.
A .it is loaded with special sensors
B. it can make all kinds of dog noises
C. it has quick response to the commands
D. it can do something without instructions
2.CHIP can follow its owner with the help of _____.
A. a watch
B. a smart wristband
C. pointy ears
D. blue LED eyes
3.From the passage,we can know_______.
A. CHIP can be bought in the store now
B. WowWee introduced its first product last year
C. Tekno provided the bright future of the robotic puppy
D. MiP is the first company to develop the robotic puppy
