22、Eating for the sake of pleasure, rather than survival, is nothing new. Traditionally researchers focused on so-called metabolic（代谢的）hunger, which is driven by physiological necessity and is most commonly identified with an empty stomach. When we start dipping into our stores of energy or when we drop below our typical body weight, the system rings the bell. 【1】 After we eat enough food or put on weight, the same hormonal system and brain circuit（回路）then tend to depress our appetite.
Now, “Shifting the focus to pleasure” is a new approach to understanding hunger and weight gain. The brain begins responding to fatty and sugary foods even before they enter our mouth. Merely seeing or hearing a desirable item excites the reward circuit. Many overeating people go beyond their energy needs, due to consuming these food items they hear or see. 【2】 Determining whether an individual's weight problem arises from emotional longings or a physical failure in the body's ability to burn up calories is important for doctors to choose the most appropriate medications or behavioral interventions（干预）for treatment.
A kind of surgery that some overweight people have already undergone to manage their weight might have provided some of the biological insights into why many of us eat far beyond our physiological needs. 【3】 Through removing tissue, doctors make it impossible for the stomach to accommodate more than a couple of ounces of food at a time. The brain's reward circuit then responds much more weakly to the images and spoken names of tempting foods
Psychologically, removing influence factor can be an option. The traditional idea is that we can teach overweight people to improve their self-control. However, scientists now realize that the foods themselves are more the problem. For many people, certain foods cause such a strong response in the brain's reward circuit that our willpower will rarely, if ever, be sufficient to resist those foods once they are around. 【4】 That means never bringing fatty, super sweet foods into our house and avoiding going to places that offer them whenever possible.
A．A network of hormones and neural（神经的）pathways in the brain activate our feeling of hunger.
B．People’s follow-up gesture then greatly affects the time they spend in consuming the food.
C．This medical operation dramatically shrinks the stomach.
D．Therefore, we have to reengineer the food environment.
E．This approach has already had an influence on the choice of treatment.
F．The type of food processing method also takes a hand one way or another.
23、 Do you know the proverb "no pains, no gains" ? It gives the impression that we ought to be suffering while we study. It seems that the only way to know if we're putting in enough work is how much hardship we bear. We are totally taken up with study, shutting ourselves away for a big exam. Is that necessarily true?
When we haven't taken the time to come up with another idea, we just shut ourselves in a room with a book. It's no surprise that we find revision boring and difficult. Just as children learn from playing, we can learn from doing, or at least from study techniques that interest us, rather than make us switch off. Shutting ourselves away can make us learn to hate studying, leading to a situation where, instead of being able to concentrate on our work, we are troubled by how unfair it is that we must study. This can be part of a vicious（恶性的）cycle that traps us into ineffective revision, or poor progress fueling further annoyance.
Thankfully, working in the company of other people really helps fight against that. We just need to learn how to deal with distractions（分心）. It's not necessary to avoid all company, just lazy company. They constantly try to keep others in conversation. While studying in the same room with someone who is ironing or working out is perfectly possible. Of course, it's also a good idea to avoid the company of people involved in activities where you would rather be playing than studying. Working while sitting next to someone playing video games is most likely to end with a new high score games rather than productive revision.
If being around others means working in a noisy environment, a pair of headphones and some background music can block out noises. They also act as a psychological barrier, so that people think twice before interrupting you. Besides, we should know friends and family can lessen feelings of isolation . And connecting with other people makes us happy, so it's important not to give that up and to make sure that we take the time to socialize.

B.Ways that interest us can lead to effective revision.

B.Playing video games is helpful for an effective study.
