26、   Parents now complain about teenagers' noses always in their phones. But they might want to check out their own screen time habits.

27、Eat like a king in the morning, a prince at noon, and a farmer at night. This saying is all about the importance of breakfast. And now scientists can tell us just why it’s so important. According to a study carried out at Imperial College London, UK, skipping the first meal of the day not only means you eat more at lunch, but also that your brain wants to find more unhealthy foods.

The study suggests that there is a special part of our brain called the orbitofrontal cortex (眶额皮层), which plays an important part in making choices about what we eat. It is used for identifying the taste of food, especially when skipping breakfast. It is more likely to target high-calorie foods when you’re on an empty stomach.

Scientists did an experiment on this. Dr Tony Goldstone from Imperial College London, scanned (扫描) the brains of 21 men and women, around the age of 25. On the first day, these people skipped breakfast before the scans. On the second day, they had cereal (谷物), bread and jam as breakfast. After the scan on both days, they had their lunch.

When the volunteers had skipped breakfast, they ate around 20 percent more at lunch, compared with days when they had eaten breakfast. Their brain scans also showed the orbitofrontal cortex was especially responsive to high-calorie foods. “We believe that it identifies the value of foods – how pleasant, how delicious something is,” Goldstone told The Guardian.

【1】 From Paragraph 1, we learn that _____.

A. scientists found out why eating breakfast is important

B. it’s easy to lose weight without breakfast

C. there’s no need to have good food for supper

D. eating breakfast makes your brain smarter

【2】 Which of the following is NOT true about the orbitofrontal cortex?

D. It is active toward high-calorie food.

【3】 Which is the correct order for the experiment on the first day?

① The volunteers skipped breakfast.

② The volunteers had lunch.

③ The volunteers had a brain scan.

A.①②③   B.③②① C.①③②   D.③①②

【4】In the experiment, the volunteers without breakfast ate about 20% _____ at lunch.

A. of the usual breakfast

B. more than the usual breakfast

C. of the usual lunch

D. more than the usual lunch

【5】Which of the following can be the title for this passage?

A. Breakfast still most important

B. Three meals a day

C. Experiments on breakfast

D. Experiments on lunch

29、   Is there anything that could help parents understand their kids better? More than 8，000 kids answered this question in an online survey by Time for Kids and Kids Health. org.

Many kids — two out of three(2/3) — said they _______ their parents. But that doesn’t mean they _______ disagree. In fact, most kids reported _________ with their parents on occasion(偶尔). Some even reported that their arguments included yelling(大喊) at each other.

“It’s certainly _________ to disagree and argue,” says D’Arcy Lyness, a child psychologist(心理学家). “But it’s also important to learn how to do so respectfully(恭敬地).”

Not surprisingly, three out of four(3/4) kids said they had _________ to their parents on occasion. Many said they lie _______ they won’t get in trouble or disappoint their parents. According to Lyness, lying can have bad _______. If kids lie when they’re young, they might continue a pattern of lying even as adults.

Telling the truth, on the other hand, shows maturity(成熟). But older kids actually lie more _________ than younger ones. Kids ages 12 to 14 not only said they lie more, but they also reported having _________ fun, feeling less close and not getting along as well with their parents.

According to Lyness, these feelings are not uncommon. As kids become more __________, they have more areas of disagreement with their parents. But it doesn’t have to be that way. “Kids and parents get along differently at each stage of the journey,” she says. “As kids grow and change, it is important for everybody to change.”
