27、Have you eaten too much over the holidays? You should try fidgeting(躁动) for a while. Those around you might not like it, but scratching (moving your nails(指甲) against a part of your body) and twitching (moving suddenly and quickly when you don’t want to) is an important way of burning up calories(卡路里).
American researchers have found that some people’s squirming (continuously turn your body when nervous) and wigging (move in small movements, especially from side to side) equals(等于) several miles of slow running each day.
The scientists, based at the National Institute of Health’s laboratory in Phenix, Arizona, are studying why some people get fat and other stay slim.
In one study 177 people each spent 24 hours in a room in the institute where the amount(量) of energy is measured by their oxygen and carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) levels. By the end of the day, some people had burned up 800 calories in toe-tapping, (moving the front part of your foot up and down) finger-drumming (hitting your fingers continuously and lightly against something hard) and other nervous habits. However, others had burned up only 100 calories.
The researchers found that slim(苗条的) women fidget more than fat women, but there was no significant difference in men. Heavy people burn up more energy when they fidget than thin people do.
【1】We can know from the passage that scientists believe the reason why some people get fat and other people stay slim is that ________.

B.some people’s fidgeting burned up more than 800 calories, but some people’s fidgeting burned up less than 100 calories
C.slim women fidget more than fat women but fat men fidget more than thin men

28、 Many of us in China enjoy adding chilies (辣椒) to our food, but did you know that this spicy vegetable could also be dangerous? A 34-year-old US man recently ended up in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper—the spiciest chili in the world. After taking just a single bite of one, the man suffered from serious headaches in the following few days, reported BBC News.
In fact, reports of stomachache and headache caused by eating spicy food are not something unusual. But if chilies are harmful, why is it that human beings are the only animals to eat this vegetable? According to the website Huanqiu, about 600 million Chinese people—almost half of the national population—are chili eaters. So what makes people love chilies so much? The human body reacts to the burning feeling that comes from eating chilies by releasing natural chemicals that “produce a sense of happiness” , noted BBC News.
And the benefits go even further than just personal enjoyment. A survey conducted by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The number decreased to 14 percent for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. And another study done by the University of Vermont came to a similar conclusion. “The data encourages people to eat more spicy food to improve health and reduce death risk at an early age,” Liu Qi, a nutritionist at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, told BBC News.
Chilies have anti-cancer quality and the ability to increase our metabolism (新陈代谢). So, don't worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are actually good for us—except for the Carolina Reaper, perhaps.
【1】The example of a 34-year-old American is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to prove ________.
A.chilies can be beneficial
B.chilies are popular in America
C.chilies can be dangerous
D.serious headaches can be dangerous
【2】Eating chilies gives people a sense of happiness by_______.
A.decreasing death rate
B.releasing natural chemicals
C.curing serious headaches
D.providing enough nutrition
【3】Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A.Human are the only animals to eat chilies.
B.Stomachache and headaches caused by chilies is something unusual.
C.The more chilies you eat, the healthier you are.
D.Chilies have anti-cancer quality but it can't increase our metabolism.
【4】The writer wrote the passage to ________.
A.warn people of the dangers of chilies
B.ask people to eat Carolina Reaper
C.encourage people to eat more chilies
D.tell people the benefits of chilies
29、Audrey Hepburn (奥黛丽·赫本) won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie, Roman Holiday, which was released in 1953. But she is remembered as much for her aid work as for her acting.
Born in Belgium in 1929, Audrey’s father was British and her mother was Dutch. Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood. During World WarⅡ, she lived and studied in the Netherlands. Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks. Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college. But when she returned to London after the war she realized she wasn't going to be a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). So she began taking acting parts in stage shows. Later she began to get small parts in movies.

Audrey made more than 25 movies. Among her roles, the most popular one was Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany’s in 1961. Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.
She was married two times and had one child with each husband. In 1989, the UN Children’s Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador. She traveled all over the world in support of UNICEF (联合国儿童基金会) projects. The UN agency said she was a tireless worker. She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.
Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World WarⅡ. She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid. She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer.
