    Health experts have discovered that adding low-calorie vegetable soup to the start of a meal can actually help to lose weight.

    Because you feel full sooner, you eat less of your main course.

    The soup regime（养生法）was tested by researchers at Pennsylvania State University, led by Dr Barbara Rolls.

    They found that when people ate a first course of soup before lunch they reduced their total calorie intake by 20 per cent, compared with those who did not begin the meal with soup.

    But those who favor creamy soups should be careful．Researchers stressed the soup must be low-calorie and based on stock（菜汤）, not cream.

    All of the soups tested in the study were made from identical ingredients - chicken stock , broccoli（硬花甘蓝）, potato, cauliflower（菜花）and carrots.

    They were mixed together to create four different textures and thickness from separate stock and vegetables through to pureed soup.

    Scientists thought that thick soups with chunks of vegetables which required chewing might be more filling, but to their surprise they found all forms had the same effect.

    The findings were presented to the Experimental Biology conference in Washington, DC, and the research was part-funded by the National Institutes of Health.

    What’s the reason that adding low-calorie vegetable soup to the start of a meal can actually help to lose weight?

        A. You can take in large quantities of vegetables.

        B. You can absorb high calories from the soup.

        C. You can take in low calories from the soup.

        D. You can feel full soon after having the soup.

    Which of the following can not be in the low-calorie soup?

        A. chicken stock    B. cauliflower  C. cream    D. carrots

    What is the best title of this passage?

        A. Vegetable Soup Helps to Lose Weight．

        B. A Scientific Research is Carrying out.

        C. A Research Done at Pennsylvania State University

        D. Findings Carried out to the Experimental Biology.

    The underlined word “favor” is the same in meaning with ______.

        A. hate B. enjoy    C. prefer   D. drink.

    In earliest times, men considered lightning （闪电）to be one of the great mysteries（神密） of nature． Some ancient people believed that lightning and thunder were the weapons(武器) of the gods．

        In reality lightning is a flow of electricity （电流）formed high above the earth． A single flash（闪烁） of lightning 1.6 kilometers long has enough electricity to light one million light bulbs．

        The American scientist and statesman, Benjamin Franklin, was the first to show the connection between electricity and lightning in 1752． In the same year he also built the first Lightning Rod (避雷针)． His device（发明物） protects buildings from being damaged by lightning．

         Modern science has discovered that one stroke of lightning contains more than 15 million volts(伏特)． A spark（火花） between a cloud and the earth may be as long as 13 kilometers, and travel at a speed of 30 million meters per second．Scientists estimate (估计) that there are about 2,000 million flashes of lightning per year． Lightning hits the Empire, State Building in New York City 30 to 48 times a year． In the United States alone it kills an average of one person every day．

        The safest place to be in case of an electrical storm is in a closed car． Outside, one should go to low ground and not get under trees． Also, one should stay out of water and away from metal fences． Inside a house, people should avoid open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things．

        With lightning, it's better to be safe than sorry.?
