21、Four stories to inspire you
Flipkart: Flipkart is a well-known e-commerce service provider that delivers the ordered product right from the shop to your doorstep. At first, Flipkart was a book market, but as it kept growing, it now sells almost everything. Its name currently comes in the top 5 global billion-dollar startups (初创公司) with a net cost of $11 billion according to the reports by The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones VentureSource.
RedBus: RedBus was launched in 2016, and in just five years, the company has grown rapidly. The company works to improve the booking of road transport and hotels via the online platform (平台). Its success is a result of an idea that three businessmen, Charan, Phanindra and Sudhakar came up with when Phanindra couldn’t go back home for a festival without a bus ticket.
Zomato: The company was launched in 2008, and in just 13 years, it has become one of the most known and globally liked food delivery and restaurant rating platforms. It currently covers 331, 200 restaurants in 19 countries. Many don’t know it was originally started as Foodiebay.com. The idea was so good that it was well received within two years of its launch in India and went on to obtain global recognition in another two years.
HestaBit: The company was a tech startup back in 2012 but it has now become one of the leading website development firms. The three founders, Dipanshu Upadhyay, Harshvardhan Lakhera and Prashant Gautam, started the company back in their college days with a little uncertainty and some big dreams.

22、A recent analysis from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine highlights the benefits of replacing animal products with plant-based foods. This analysis, which amplifies a previous study by the same committee, further emphasizes the significant impact of plant-based diets on weight loss, cholesterol (胆固醇) and fat intake in overweight adults.
The most significant finding is that both healthy and unhealthy plant-based foods contribute to weight loss when they replace animal products in the diet. This conclusion is significant because it underlines the potential of a plant-based diet, regardless of the specific type of plant-based foods consumed, in managing weight and improving overall health.
This analysis is a secondary examination of a prior study that involved 244 overweight adults. The participants were divided into two groups. The first group followed a low-fat vegan (素食的) diet, and the second made no changes to their diet. Obviously, the study set no restrictions on calorie intake, and the researchers did not give participants specific instructions on diet quality.
The study authors used two different indexes (指标) to assess: the healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI), and the unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI). The hPDI emphasizes fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans, while the uPDI includes more refined grains and fruit juices. Higher scores on the indexes correlate with greater consumption of plant-based foods and reduced consumption of animal products.
The results revealed that after 16 weeks, participants on the vegan diet showed increased scores in both indexes. This increase significantly correlated with participants losing an average of about 13 pounds, mainly from reduced fat mass. The second group showed no change in their index scores.
Overall, the analysis provides strong evidence that eating plant-based foods is effective for weight management and health improvement.

A．Being on diet is the key to losing weight.

23、What time of day can you think most quickly? Are you a morning person? Or does it take you a few hours to get your brain going? A lot of recent research suggests that we should pay attention to our body clock. It can tell us what time of day we can perform best at.
Many people work best later in the morning. This is because the body's temperature takes time to rise through the day. Taking a warm shower when you wake up can help your body’s temperature rise quickly.
But everyone's body clock is different and some are special. Morning people will get up early and work better early in the day. Evening people will work later but work better towards the end of the day.
Research shows that we’re better at some activities at certain times of the day. Physical performance（体能）is at its best between 3 pm and 6 pm, so it’s better to exercise later in the day. Between noon and 4 pm, people begin to pay less attention. This is because we think less quickly after a big meal. Research also shows we become sleepy around 2 pm. This is why people in Spain take a short sleep in early afternoon. Finally, it is best to eat when we’re active. This allows our body to burn calories（卡路里）better and stops our blood sugar levels（血糖）from getting too high.
【1】________ can tell us what time of day we can perform best at.
A. Morning people B. A warm shower
C. Our body temperature D. Our body clock
【2】What is the best time for physical performance?
A. Between 3 pm and 6 pm. B. Between 7 pm and 10 pm.
C. Between noon and 4 pm. D. Between 5 am and 8 am.
【3】Why is it best to eat when we’re active?
A. Because eating makes the brain unable to think quickly.
B. Because it makes our blood sugar levels higher.
C. Because our body can burn more calories.
D. Because our body needs a short sleep.
【4】What is the best title（题目）for this article?
A. How can we work better B. The best time to exercise
C. How can we keep healthy D. The perfect time to do something
