For each pound of w
28、eight that your body carries, it takes about 12 calories per pound per day to keep it alive, if you weigh 150 pounds, you therefore need about (150x12) 800 calories per day to keep yourself alive and maintain that same weight. If you were to eat more than 1800 calories per day, the surplus turns int
29、o fat. It takes about 3,600 excess calories to make a pound of fat. Lets say that you were to eat, on average, 2,000 calories per day. That extra 200 calories per day is going to turn into fat. However, you will eventually hit a point of equilibrium(均衡) because as you gain weight, you need more calo
30、ries to maintain that weight. So, a person eating an average of 2,000 calories per day will hit equilibrium at (2000/12) 166.67 pounds.So lets say that you eat, on average, 2,000 calories per day and reach equilibrium at 166 pounds. Then you go on a crash diet where you eat only 1,000 calories per d
31、ay for 60 days. You lose 16 pounds and reach your target weight of 150 pounds. But then you go right back to eating 2,000 calories per day again. The graph below shows your eating pattern before, during and after the diet:Note that the graph assumes that you, like most people, eat a random number of
32、 calories per day. Some days you are good and eat less, and some days you are bad and eat more, but the assumption is that it averages out to 2,000 calories per day over the long run.This graph shows what happens to your weight before, during and after the diet: The diet really takes the weight off.
33、 But the weight comes right back when you return to your normal eating pattern. The weight appears to come back so quickly because when you are at your lightest, you tend to gain more weight each day. The lighter you are, the fewer calories you need. If you only need 1,500 calories per day and youre
34、 eating 2,000, you re going to gain weight faster than if you need 1 800 and youre eating 2,000. There are only two ways to keep the weight off: Change your overall eating pattern so that you take in, on average, fewer calories than before you went on the diet. Start exercising so that you burn the
35、extra calories you take in. The best course of action is a combination of these two options.61.If you weigh 90 pounds, how many calories do you need per day to keep yourself alive?. (A) 1,800 calories. (B) 1,500 calories. (C) 1,080 calories. (D) 2,000 calories. 62.Which of the following is NOT true
36、according to the passage? (A) The more you gain weight, the more calories you need. (B) The surplus calories will turn into fat. (C) If you want to lose weight you should go on a crash diet. (D) When you have lost your weight, you eat only 1,000 calories per day.63.Which is the best way to keep the
37、weight off? (A) Go on a crash diet. (B) Eat less than usual. (C) Change your overall eating pattern and start exercising. (D) Take less than 1,000 calories per day.64.What does the writer want to tell us in the passage? (A) The reason that the weight comes back quickly once you stop dieting. (B) How
38、 many calories a person needs per day! (C) How to lose your weight quickly. (D) There is no use to go on a diet. 65. What does the underlined word “random” mean in the passage? A. unpredictable B. perlexing C. undependent D. abnormal CA new factory that turns used wine bottles into green sand could
39、revolutionize the recycling industry and help to filter (过滤)the nations drinking water. For the last 100 year special high grade white sand quarried(开采)at Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire has been used to filler tap water to remove bacteria and impurities-but this may no longer be necessary. The gre
40、en sand has already been successfully tested by water companies and is being used in 50 swimming pools in Scotland to keep the water clean. Backed by one million pounds from the European Union and the Department for Environment. Food and Rural Affairs(Defra), a company bused in Scotland is building
41、a factory to turn beverage bottles back into the sand from which they were made. The idea is not only to avoid using up increasingly scarce sand in Scotland and avoid any further quarrying but also to solve a crisis in the recycles only 750 000 tones of it. Howard Dryden, the scientist and managing
42、director of the company has spent six years working on what he calls Active Filtration Media, or AFM, the recycled glass. He says he needs bottles that have already contained drinkable liquids to be sure that drinking water would not be polluted. The fact is that tests show that AFM does the job bet
43、ter than glass. it is easier to clean and reuse and has all sorts of properties that make it ideal for other applications, he claimed. He also thinks the market will be able to take 250 000 tones of green sand a year. The plan is to build five or six factories in cities in the UK where the bottles c
44、ome from to cut down on transport. The factory will be completed this month and is expected to go into full production on January 14 next year. Once it is providing a regular product, the governments drinking water inspectorate will be asked to perform tests and approve it for general use by water c

Though the music was great, people were quickly going home for the weekend. In this case, many of them slowed
63、down their paces and put some money into the hat of the young man.The next day, the young artist came to the gate of the subway station, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different than the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground and put some stones on it. Th
64、en he adjusted the violin and began playing. It seemed more pleasant to listen to.Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistaken. Please
65、 come to claim it soon.”Seeing this, it caused a great excitement and people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, its you. You did come here. I knew that you
66、re an honest man and would certainly come here.”The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr. George Sang?”The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something?”“Lottery. Its lottery,” said the man.The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which _. “Is it?” he asked.George nodded promptly
67、and seized the lottery ticket and kissed it, then he danced with the violinist.The story turned out to be this: George Sang is an office clerk. He bought a lottery ticket issued by a bank a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy after work and
68、 felt the music was so wonderful, that he took out 50 dollars and put in the hat. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in. The violinist was a student at an Arts College and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. He had booked the ticket and would fly that morning. However when he w
69、as cleaning up he found the lottery ticket.

70、 the subway station every day to make the money. Then why didnt you take the lottery ticket for yourself?” The violinist said, “Although I dont have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I wont be happy forever.” Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest sho
71、uld always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser.

76、信，我一天也不会快乐。”Dear editor,I have recently made a survey among 50 boys and 50 girls in my school about the purposes of getting on the Internet. The girls favorite thing to do on-line is chatting while what the boys like to do most is playing games. Both boys and girls like to read news and send emails.
77、 Maybe they think it the most convenient way to get information and keep in touch with friends. As for studying, the numbers of boys and girls are equal, but altogether less than half of them would like to use the Internet as a tool to study.The case of our school is probably a tip of the iceberg. How to make good use of the Internet needs to be further discussed.
