    Lots of people are unhappy with their present weight, but most aren't sure how to change it. You may want to look like the models or actors in magazines and on TV, but those goals might not be healthy or realistic (现实的) for you. Being healthy is really about being at a weight that is right for you. The best way to find out if you are at a healthy weight or if you need to lose or gain weight is to talk to a doctor or dietitian（营养学家）. If it turns out that you can benefit from weight loss, then you can follow a few of the simple suggestions listed below to get started.
    _______________________. Ask your mom or dad to lend help and support and to make lifestyle changes that will benefit the whole family, if possible. Those who have the support of their families tend to have better results with their weight-management programs.
    Watch your drinks. It’s amazing how many extra calories can be in the sodas, juices and other drinks that you take in every day. Simply cutting out a can of soda or one sports drink can save you 150 calories or more each day. Slake yourself with water or other sugar-free drinks when you’re thirsty and stay away from sugary juices and sodas.
    Stop eating when you’re full. Lots of people eat when they’re full. Try to pay attention as you eat and stop when you are full.
    Avoid diet pills. They can be dangerous to your health; besides, there’s no evidence that they help keep weight off over the long term.
    Get moving. You don’t have to play a team sport or go to the gym. Try different kinds of activities from hiking to cycling, or to dancing until you find what you like.

    Salt plays an important role in our daily diet. Even a small reduction in salt in the diet can be a big help to the heart. A new study used a computer model to predict -how just three grams less a day would affect heart disease in the United States.
    The result: Thirteen percent fewer heart attacks. Eight percent fewer strokes. Four percent fewer deaths. Eleven percent fewer new cases of heart disease. And two hundred forty billion dollars in health care savings. Researchers found it could prevent one hundred thousand heart attacks and ninety-two thousand deaths every year．
    The study is in the New England Journal of Medicine. Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo at the University of California San Francisco was the lead author. She says people would not even notice a difference in taste with three grams,or one-half teaspoon, less salt per day. The team also included researchers at Stanford and Columbia University. Each gram of salt contains four hundred milligrams of sodiu(钠), which is how foods may list their salt content．
    The government says the average American man eats ten grams of salt a day. The American Heart Association advises no more than three grams for healthy people. It says salt in the American diet has increased fifty percent since the nineteen seventies, while blood pressures have also risen. Less salt can mean a lower blood pressure.
    New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is leading an effort called the National Salt Reduction Initiative.The idea is to put pressure on food companies and restaurants. Critics call it government interference.
    Mayor Bloomberg has already succeeded in other areas, like requiring fast food places in the city to list calorie information. Now a study by the Seattle Children's Research Institute shows that the calorie information on the menu can influence what parents order for their children. Ninety-nine parents of three to six year olds took part. Half had calories between the two groups for foods that the parents would have chosen for themselves. McDonald's menus clearly showing how many calories were in each food. Parents given the counts chose an average of one hundred two fewer calories when asked what they would order for their children. Yet there was no difference in calories between the two groups for foods that the parents would have chosen for themselves.
    Study leader Pooja Tandon says even small calorie reductions on a regular basis can prevent weight gain over time.The study was published in the journal Pediatrics．
    小题1:Which of the following benefits does less salt diet in the passage NOT cover?
    A．The decrease of strokes B．The prevention of weight gain
    C．Fewer heart attacksD．The drop in medical care cost
    小题2:It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
    A．Americans ate no more than 5 grams of salt per day in the 1970s
    B．the American Heart Association suggests less than 3 grams of salt a day for everyone
    C．the less salt one eats, the healthier he will be
    D．all the heart diseases result from eating too much salt
    小题3:The National Salt Reduction Initiative aims to_______.
    A．inform people of the harm that salt does to health
    B．attract the public attention to the problem
    C．require fast food places to list salt information
    D．put pressure on food companies and restaurants
    小题4:The underlined sentence "Yet there was no difference in calories between the two groups for foods that the parents would have chosen for themselves." implies that _______.
    A．Parents pay less attention to the amount of calories in their diet.
    B．Parents set a good example to their children in daily diet.
    C．Parents take less salt than before while taking meals.
    D．Most parents are on a diet for their health.
    小题5:Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?
    A．Relationship between Salt and Health
    B．Less Salt Can Mean Being More Healthy
    C．A Survey on People's Regular Diet
    D．Mayor Michael Bloomberg and His Health Project

    If it really is what’s on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.
    Some doctors now think that the internal(内部的) fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.
    “Being thin doesn’t surely mean you are not fat,” said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College. Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat.
    According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.
    Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.
    According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.
    Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes. They want to prove that internal fat damages the body’s communication systems.
    The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said.
    小题1:According to the pass age, which of the following is WRONG?
    A．People with heart disease all have internal fat.
    B．People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet.
    C．Men are more likely to have too much internal fat.
    D．Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat.
    小题2:From the last paragraph, we can find that ______.
    A．whether internal fat can lead to disease has been proved
    B．exercise plays an important role in people’s life for keeping healthy
    C．thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slim
    D．it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat
    小题3:Doctors have found ______.
    A．the exact dangers of internal fat
    B．internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetes
    C．being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside
    D．being slim is not dangerous at all
    小题4:The underlined part in the last paragraph means ______.
    A．a long roadB．a clear difference
    C．an easy wayD．a short distance

    Chocolate is good for your heart, skin and brain. Usually, people think that chocolate is bad for their health. They describe chocolate as “something to die for” or say “death by chocolate”. Now they should bite their tongues! Evidence(证据) is showing that some kinds of chocolate are actually good for you in the following ways:
    A happier heart
    Scientists at Harvard University recently examined 136 studies on cocoa—the main ingredient in chocolate and found that it does seem to strengthen the heart. Studies have shown heart benefits from increased blood flow. These benefits are the result of cocoa’s chemicals, which seem to prevent both cell damage and inflammation(炎症).
    Better blood pressure
    If yours is high, chocolate may help. Jeffrey Blumberg from Tufts University recently 
    found that people with high blood pressure who ate 3.5 ounces of dark chocolate 
    per day for two weeks their blood pressure drop quickly.
    Muscle magic
    Chocolate milk may help you recover after a hard workout(锻炼). In a small study at Indiana University, people who drank chocolate milk between workouts did better on a tiredness test than those who had some sports drinks.
    Better for your skin. German researchers gave 24 women a half-cup of special cocoa every day. After three months, the women’s skin was moister(滑润的)and smoother. The research shows that chocolate helps protect and increase blood flow to the skin, improving its appearance.
    Brain gains
    It sounds almost too good to be true, but research suggests that chocolate may improve your memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving by increasing blood flow to the brain.
    小题1:Which of the following is wrong?                                            
    A．Coca’s chemicals can prevent both cell damage and inflammation.
    B．Chocolate may help you lower your blood pressure.
    C．People early know chocolate is good for their health.
    D．Chocolate may improve your memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving.
    小题2:What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?
    A．Sports drinks are better than chocolate milk.
    B．Sports drinks can make people easy to be tired.
    C．Drinking milk can keep you energetic at work.
    D．We should drink chocolate milk between times when we work hard.
    小题3:What’s the main idea of the text?
    A．Chocolate, a Healthy FoodB．More Chocolate, Less Health
    C．Chocolate and Blood PressureD．Advice on Eating Chocolate
    小题4:What’s the meaning of “bite their tongues” in the first paragraph?
    A．Think of it.B．Speak up. C． Stop talkingD．Listen to it

    “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Similarly, if we drink a little more water ever day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often. A healthy diet is made up of water and a great many different kinds of foods. We know that healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and fish, are important as they provide us with energy and fibre, without giving us too much fat and sugar. But why is water important?
    The human body needs water to survive. Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies. However, doctors advise us to drink plenty of water, much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.
    Some doctors believe that water is important for our health in all kinds of ways. They believe that a great many illnesses and health problems stars as a result of dehydration—a lack(缺少) of water in the body. Most people are dehydrated at least some of time, although they probably don’t know it. It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty, we are already in the first stages of dehydration. In fact, we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.
    These doctors think that health problems such as headaches, high blood pressure and asthma could be helped if people drink more water. They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are overweight. Water contains no calories so it will not make us put on weight. If we drink water, we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks such as Coca-cola. Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating. They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are, in fact, thirsty. Doctors suggest, therefore, that we eat less food and drink more water.
    There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water, so we should not stop going to seeing the doctor completely. However, if we make a decision to drink water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often.
    小题1:We need _____for a healthy diet.
    A．fibreB．foodC．waterD．Water and different foods
    小题2:From the text, we know water can carry_________.
    A．energy and fibre in our bodiesB．fruit, vegetables and fish in our bodies
    C．sugar and fat out of our bodiesD．poisons and waste out of our bodies
    小题3:Lack of water caused people to put on weight too much because_______.
    A．they think they are hungry and eat too much
    B．they think they are thirsty and eat less
    C．water has no calories
    D．it makes them hungry
    小题4:Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the passage?
    A．Fruit provides us with energy and fibre.
    B．Some healthy problems start because of a lack of water.
    C．Drinking more water may stop people from overeating.
    D．The amount of water a person should drink in a day.

    Experts say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “ Culture shock” is the term these experts use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the experts. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
    There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems---the telephone, post office ,or transportation --may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.
    Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self-image.
    Culture shock causes a feeling of disorientation (迷惘）. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience--these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
    小题1:According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, _________________.
    A．the fewer difficulties you may have abroad
    B．the more difficulties you may have abroad
    C．the more money you will earn abroad
    D．the less homesick you will feel abroad
    小题2:.Which of the following is NOT right according to the passage?
    A．“Culture shock” is a term used to describe the feelings that people experience in a new environment
    B．In the second stage of “ Culture shock”, people may hate the life in the new environment
    C．When you are homesick, you had better not stay at home all the time
    D．Every one of us doesn’t feel culture shock in this way or that
    小题3:.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
    A．Escape unfamiliar environment
    B．The feeling of homesickness
    C．The best way to overcome (克服、战胜）culture shock: get familiar with the new culture
    D．Homesickness can solve the problem of culture shock

    Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet .... We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.
    Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brains to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤)  instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.
    On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.
    The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.
    Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.
    小题1:From Paragraph 1, we learn that ______.
    A．diet products fail to bring out people’s potential
    B．people have difficulty in choosing diet products
    C．diet products are misleading people
    D．people are fed up with diet products
    小题2:One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to ______.
    A．try out a variety of diet foods
    B．hesitate before they enjoy diet foods
    C．pay attention to their own eating habits
    D．watch their weight rather than their diet
    小题3:In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means ______.
    A．diet products bring no pain
    B．it costs a lot to lose weight
    C．losing weight is effortless
    D．diet products are free from calories
    小题4:Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products ______.
    A．are over-consumed
    B．lack basic nutrients
    C．are short of chemicals
    D．provide too much energy
