题目列表(包括答案和解析)

I don't have the s_______ for supper.

Glynis Davis:

I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year …but it didn’t happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. I’d lost willpower（意志力）and tried to believe that the fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.

Roz Juma:

To be honest, I never weigh myself any more. I’ve learnt to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body. This is obviously the size I’ve meant to be and, most of all, I’m happy with it.

Lesley Codwin:

I was very happy about winning Young Slimmer of the Year. I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this lady was me! That might have been my problem—perhaps from then on I didn’t pay attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though, because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you. I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again.

Ros Langfod

Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Very often I try to go on a diet …I’m really good for a few days, then end up having the children’s left-overs or eating happily chocolate---my weakness. I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.

1． What do you think the four women were all talking about?

A． Their own slimming matter B． Their life after marriage

C． Their work as a housewife D． Different diets they prefer

2． Where are these short passages mostly likely to be taken from?

A． Talks on the radio. B． Advertisements on the wall

C． Books in a library D． Magazines for children

3． What does the underlined word “scales” possibly mean?

A． The coach in the slimming club B． Some tools to measure weight

C． Glnis Davis’ dear husband D． The salesperson in a shop

4． Which of the following best describes each of the four women’s attitudes towards slimming?

1．Glynis 2． Roz Juma 3． Lesley Codwin 4． Ros Langfod

A．I put on weight soon after I got married.

B．Fame（名声）doesn’t necessarily mean success.
