26、Your house may have an influence on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you put on weight or lose weight. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.
Open the curtains (窗帘) and turn up the lights . Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps (灯) and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors increase our appetites (胃口). In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed (消耗) 33% less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more delicious, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So, when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） each meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin paying attention to the time and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates (盘子) can easily make us fat. We eat about 22% more when using a 12-inch (英寸) plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14%. And we’ll pour (倒) about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
【1】The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.
A．their home comforts
B．their body shape
C．house buying
D．healthy diets
【2】A home environment in blue can help people_________.
A．enjoy food better
B．eat less food
C．burn more calories
D．have bigger appetites
【3】What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
A．Eat quickly.
B．Play fast music.
C．Use smaller spoons.
D．Turn down the lights.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the test?
A．Is Your House Making You Fat?
B．Ways of Serving Dinner
C．Influence of Colors
D．Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?
27、How to stop life getting you down
In our life, we can be faced with a lot of troubles. We don’t like to talk about our struggles. 【1】 So when things start to get you down how can you cheer yourself up?
【2】
Hobbies don’t just fill time. 【3】 Try out a new sport, learn to cook or perhaps join a choir. Many hobbies also provide opportunities for social interaction. Talking and making friends will do wonders for your mood.
Reach out
If you’re struggling or feeling down, always remember that you don’t need to be on your own. 【4】 If you don’t feel able to talk to friends or family, you’ll find support groups and helplines that can provide you with ideas. You’ll also find that online forums and social media sites can provide opportunities to connect and ask for help.
Try to appreciate the little things.
Those that have recovered from a serious illness often say that they’ve been given a new life and that they wake each morning grateful just to be waking up. 【5】 Enjoy the beauty of a flower, a favourite piece of music or a simple sunny day. Go out for dinner and make efforts to truly appreciate the flavour of your meal or lie back on your bed, surrounded by total silence, and simply focus on how it feels to breathe and to relax. Clearing the mind is of benefit. If you can’t focus on the silence, you can instead choose background noise, such as a CD of ocean sounds or the sound of pouring rain.
A.Join in social activities.
B.Try out a new hobby.
C.Instead, we choose to put on a brave face.
D.Try to stay in a completely quiet environment.
E.Friends will be happy to help and provide support.
F.Focusing on life’s little things can help you to feel more positive.

29、 Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.
My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”
At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school－walking on my own!
When the Great Depression(大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.
Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.
Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world－Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situations. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.
