26、Scientists have long known a reliable way to lose weight in lab animals; Cut the amount of calories(卡路里) by 10 percent to 40 percent. A new study suggests that in young and middle-aged adults, taking in 300 caloric less every day can also have a big influence on their body weight and health.
In the new study published this month in the Lancet, researchers looked at a group of 143 healthy men and women aging from 21 to 50. They could eat the foods they wanted as long as they cut about 12 percent of their total calories, or roughly 300 calories a day.
The group saw their health improve. For example, their blood pressure fell, and they had better blood sugar control.
“The benefits came from the fact that they lost about 16 pounds over the two years of the study,” said William Kraus, the lead author of the study and a professor of medicine at Duke University.
“We were surprised by these changes,” he added. “In a disease population, there aren't five drugs in combination(组合) that would get such a big improvement.”
Calories cut may be useful for better health and weight loss, said Frank Hu, the chairman of the nutrition department at the Harvard School of Public Health. But he questioned whether caloric cut would be possible for most people since we are living in an environment with so many energy-rich, nutrient-poor foods that are cheap, and heavily advertised.
He suggested, however, that some people might find calorie cut possible if they combined it with other popular diets like the Mediterranean diet.
Dr. Kraus said, “It’s not that hard to cut as little as 300 calories a day from their diets. It just takes an after-dinner snack.”
【1】How much calories does a middle-aged adult usually take in each day?
A．About 300.
B．About 750.
C．About 2,500.
D．About3,000.
【2】What led to the health benefits in the new study according to William Kraus?
A．The combination of five drugs.
B．The weight loss.
C．The energy-rich snacks.
D．The delicious foods.
【3】What is Frank Hu’s attitude toward the advice in the new study?
A．Doubtful.
B．Favorable.
C．Uncaring.
D．Curious.
【4】What can be the suitable title for the text?
A．Hot Debate on Different Weight-losing Diets
B．New Health Guidelines Published for the Adults
C．The Easiest Way to Stay Fit and Healthy Ever Found
D．Cutting 300 Calories a Day to Stay Healthy Every Day
27、 Before moving to Stokholm, I did my research on Sweden and was confident about my move. However, I quickly realized on my first day that so much of what I learned was so very wrong. There are many things that a Google search cannot show about Sweden.
The first is fika. A fika is taking a break from whatever you are doing to enjoy a coffee with friends. Swedes value community highly so it makes sense that they would like to set aside time each day to reconnect with others. Fika is a great time to meet new people as well as catch up with friends.
I grew up in the American South where everyone is very friendly. I found that little things like not being asked my life story at the coffee shop by the waiter upset me. However, Swedish people are not rude. Instead, they practice being logom, which means “just enough”.
The winters can be very dark and cold, so the Swedish people do not take any sunny day for granted. Since the weather has been fine, I have found myself walking a lot around Stockholm. Often it is easiest to get from place to place by walking, which allows you to see so much of the city and enjoy the fresh air. Though it has been very tiring to get used to, it also has made me feel better about all of the kardemummabullar that I have been eating!
I think it is important for students who want to study abroad to know that it is hard to move to countries no matter how “similar” you may think they may be. You have to jump in with both feet and be patient with yourself as well as others. As long as you keep an open mind and are willing to learn, you will have a great experience.
【1】What do we know about fika?
A.It is a waste of time. B.It is a way to balance life and work.
C.It is all about drinking coffee. D.It is a Swedish social tradition.
【2】What does the author think of Swedish people?
A.They are friendly. B.They seem a bit cold.
C.They appear really rude. D.They are interested in other's life.
【3】Why does the author like walking?
A.It is fun and not very tiring. B.It is good exercise on cold days.
C.It allows her to enjoy sunny days. D.It gives her the chance to eat the local food.
【4】What's the author's advice for students going abroad?
A.Be confident. B.Be careful.
C.Be open- minded. D.Be hard- working.
28、 Imagine being face-to-face with a woolly mammoth (猛犸象) . It would be quite a sight. Scientists believe it would tower above 11 feet tall and have a sloping back, a long, powerful trunk, and sharp, curved tusks that stretch up to 10 feet. Its thick hair would be up to three feet long. It would weigh six tons—about as heavy as a bus.
You’ve probably never seen a giant furry elephant before. Actually, you definitely haven’t. The species has been extinct for thousands of years.
But a few years from now, you might be able to see a woolly mammoth in person. Scientists believe they have the technology to recreate it.
A team of South Korean and Russian scientists plan to clone a woolly mammoth. How will they do it?
Several woolly mammoth bodies have already been discovered in Siberia, an icy region in Russia. The scientists plan to take cells from these frozen mammoths. In a laboratory, they’ll use them to create a new cluster (群) of cells called an embryo. The embryo will be placed into the womb of a living female elephant. That elephant will then give birth to a baby woolly mammoth.
The scientists believe the whole process will take five years. Many scientists and animal lovers can’t wait. It will be so exciting to be able to bring a creature that has been extinct for thousands of years back to life. People would travel from around the world for the chance to see a living woolly mammoth. By observing the way the creature looks and acts, scientists might make brand-new discoveries about the history of animal life.
Other experts aren’t so sure about the woolly mammoth project. One big question is what to do with a mammoth. The Earth has changed in the thousands of years since these animals roamed the planet. Where would the creature live, and would it be able to survive in today’s climate ? Some believe that the money being spent on the experiment could be better spent on other important scientific projects, such as fighting diseases.
But the South Korean and Russian scientists are sticking to their plan. They admit they have a big challenge ahead. There is no guarantee that they will succeed, but they’ re hopeful.
【1】The first paragraph describes the mammoth’s ________.
A.habitat B.food
C.appearance D.lifespan
【2】What is the challenge for scientists to clone a mammoth?
A.Whether they have enough money for the project.
B.Whether the mammoth can adapt to the new environment.
C.Whether the mammoth can survive the modern diseases.
D.Whether their plan wins support from the public.
【3】The last paragraph implies that the attitude of scientists to cloning mammoths is ______.
A.negative B.disapproving
C.optimistic D.doubtful
【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Scientists are finding ways to deal with mammoths.
B.Scientists try to find out the history of animal life.
C.Scientists plan to bring the mammoth back to life.
D.Scientists pay little attention to the return of the mammoth.
