15、eople, Ive spent much of my life trying various diets and methods of losing weight, some quick and painless, others slow and tiring, most of them including the so-called “cheat day”. The principle of the cheat day is simple: After going on a diet throughout a week or a month,you can eat anything you
16、 like on that day. The day makes all my eating and drinking not only satisfactory but acceptable. After all, I deserve it.However, the problem for me was that cheat days were never quite that. Either they became happy cheat weeks, cheat months and sometimes cheat years, or they filled me with anxiet
17、y of going off-track so that I couldnt truly enjoy them. Using food as a reward only perpetuated my unhealthy relationship with food, and it troubled me in my approach to health.After struggling for a couple of months, I came to realize the true colors of the cheat day. It goes to extremes - none or
18、 all. Also, cheat days imply that foods can be divided into “good” and “bad”. Thats why I felt guilty when I had a piece of cake for breakfast instead of fat-free milk. But food, in fact, has no moral(道德的)value. It is simply intended to fill your body and provide nutrition. Hopefully it tastes good,
19、 too.This simple thought has inspired me to quit cheat days. 1 dont feel worried or ashamed any more and start to reconsider my relationship with food. I just pay more attention to the signs of my stomach, and eat what I desire while being mindful of the heath results. Doing away with cheat days lig
20、htens my mind and improves my relationship with food.24. What do people do on a “cheat day”?A. Tell lies.B. Eat what they like.C. Go on a diet.D. Try gaining weight.25. What does the underlined word “perpetuated” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Ruined.B. Continued.C. Repaired.D. Improved.26. What does the au
21、thor mainly want to tell us?A. A healthy relationship with food maters.B. One neednt feel guilty about eatingC. “Cheat day” is effective in nutrition control.D. Losing weight does harm physically and mentallyCWe know that carbon dioxide is a major driver of climate change, so the more that can be ta
22、ken out of the atmosphere by plants, the better. With the warmer climate leading to a longer growing season, some scientists have suggested that more carbon dioxide would be absorbed by trees. But a new study has turned this theory on its head.The researchers, led by Deborah Zani at the Swiss Federa
23、l Institute of Technology, studied certain tree species and recorded how much carbon each tree absorbed per season. With data from other projects, the researchers found as the rate of photosynthesis ( 光合作用) increased with warmer climate, leaves changed color and fell earlier in the year.Climate-cont
24、rolled experiments show what could be behind this unexpected result. In the trials, the trees were exposed to full sun, half shade or full shade. The results show theres a limit to the amount of photosynthesis that a tree can carry out over a growing season and that certain trees can only absorb a s
25、et amount of carbon each year. Think of it like filling a bucket with water. It can be done slowly or quickly, but once the bucket is full, theres nowhere for any more water to go.Once that limit is reached, leaves begin to change color. The limit is set by the availability of nutrients, particularl
26、y nitrogen, which is a key nutrient that plants need to grow. The amount of available nitrogen often limits total growth. Thats why farmers and gardeners use nitrogen fertilizer. These new findings have significant implications (启示) for climate change modelling. If we accept that warmer weather and
27、longer growing seasons wont allow trees to take up more carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide levels will rise more quickly than previously expected. The only way tochange this will be to increase the capacity (容纳能力) of trees to absorb carbon.27. What does the new study suggest?A. More carbon dioxide would
28、 be absorbed by trees.B. Global warming shortens the growing season of plants.C. The amount of carbon dioxide decides the photosynthesis.D. Warmer climate may cause leaves to change color earlier.28. How did the researchers carry out the study?A. By analyzing collected data.B. By measuring temperatu
29、re.C. By observing changes of shade.D. By modelling climate change.29. The example in paragraph 3 helps readers understand .A. the ways to fill in a bucket.B. the process of controlling climate.C. the limitation of carbon absorption.D. the importance of sunlight exposure.30. Why do the farmers and g
30、ardeners use nitrogen fertilizers?A. To stop total growth of plants.B. To change the shape of plants.C. To slow the rate of photosynthesis.D. To overcome plant growth limitation.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。Fireworks are one of many Americans favorites. While it
