　　Any diet on which you eat fewer calories than you need to get through the day — like an 800-calorie-per-day diet can be dangerous. Diets that don't allow any fat also can be bad for you. Everyone needs a certain amount of fat in their diet — up to 30% of total calories — so no one should eat a completely fat-free diet.

　　Don't have diets that restrict （限制）certain food groups, either. A diet that requires you to say no to bread or pasta or allows you to eat only fruit is unhealthy. You won't get the vitamins and minerals you need. And although you may lose weight, you'll probably gain it back as soon as you start eating normally again.

　　Some people start dieting because they think all the problems in their lives are because of weight. Others have an area of their lives that they can't control, like an alcoholic parent, so they focus on something they can control — their exercise and food intake.

　　People who diet may get lots of praise from friends and family when they start losing pounds, which makes them feel good. But eventually a person reaches a weight level — and doesn't lose as much weight as before because the body is trying to keep a healthy weight, so they aren't any happier.

　　Some people may find it hard to control their eating, so they stick with an extreme diet for a little while, but then eat tons of food. Feeling guilty about the binge, they use laxatives（瀉藥）. Eating too little to maintain a healthy weight or eating only to throw up the calories are both eating disorders, which are harmful to a person's health.

　　1. Which is not the result of restricting certain food groups?

　　  A. lose weight for a short period          B. unhealthy  

　　  C. short of nutrition                     D. hungry

　　2. The reasons why some people start and keep dieting DON’T include__________.

　　  A. They think their trouble comes from their weight.

　　  B. They have an alcoholic parent.

　　  C. Other people’s praise when they lose some weight.

　　  D. There is something they can’t control except food intake.

　　3. The underlined phrase in the last paragraph refers to _________.

　　  A. a fat-free diet               B. a special diet   

　　  C. eating too much             D. eating too little

　　4. Which of the following statements is true?

　　  A. A person needs about 800 calories each day.

　　  B. A person who doesn’t eat bread is unhealthy.

　　  C. An improper diet may cause eating disorder.

　　  D. Fat takes up the most part of calories inside body.

　　5. According to the passage, when people want to lose weight, they should_________.

　　  A. avoid eating some food that can lead to being fat   B. control their eating amount and times

　　  C. have a healthy and balanced diet                D. throw up some of what they eat  

　　【答案解析】

　　1. D

　　本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文中第二段內(nèi)容可知答案為D項。根據(jù)文中內(nèi)容可知不吃某些種類的食品（是因為這些食物容易導(dǎo)致發(fā)胖，所以用其它食品代替）并不會導(dǎo)致饑餓。

　　2. B

　　本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。文中第三段提到了一些人們開始減肥的原因，第四段又提到當(dāng)他們減掉某些體重時會得到朋友和家人的贊揚(yáng)，使他們感覺很好，因此會堅持一段時間。而B項所敘述內(nèi)容只是用來列舉某些人生活中有一些無法控制的事情，并不是他們減肥的原因。

　　3. D

　　本題為詞義猜測題。根據(jù)本句后面的but then eat tons of food以及最后一句中的Eating too little to maintain a healthy weight可知答案為D項。

　　4. C

　　本題為細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。從文中第一段可知人體每天所需要的能量要多于800卡路里，可知A項錯誤；再者該段說明脂肪占人體所消耗能量的30%，并沒有說明所占數(shù)量最大，因此可排除D項；另外根據(jù)第二段可知面包只是屬于某種類別的食物，因此B項敘述錯誤；根據(jù)最后一段可知正確答案為C項。

　　5. C

　　本題為主旨大意概括題。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知即使減肥，為了身體所需也必須做到健康均衡飲食。因此正確答案為C項。

　　Marie Curie was a Polish physicist and chemist who lived between 1867-1934. Together with her husband, Pierre, she discovered two new elements (radium and polonium, two radioactive elements that they extracted chemically from pitchblende ore) and studied the x-rays they emitted. She found that the harmful properties of x-rays were able to kill tumors. By the end of World War I, Marie Curie was probably the most famous woman in the world. She had made a conscious decision, however, not to patent methods of processing radium or its medical applications.

　　Marie Curie was born November 7, 1867 in Poland and died on July 4, 1934. Her co-discovery with her husband Pierre Curie of the radioactive elements radium and polonium represents one of the best known stories in modern science for which they were recognized in 1901 with the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1911, Marie Curie was honored with a second Nobel prize, this time in chemistry, to honor her for successfully isolating pure radium and determining radium's atomic weight.

　　As a child, Marie Curie amazed people with her great memory. She learned to read when she was only four years old. Her father was a professor of science and the instruments that he kept in a glass case fascinated Marie. She dreamed of becoming a scientist, but that would not be easy. Her family became very poor, and at the age of 18, Marie became a governess. She helped pay for her sister to study in Paris. Later, her sister helped Marie with her education. In 1891, Marie attended the Sorbonne University in Paris where she met and married Pierre Curie, a well-known physicist.

　　 Marie Curie contributed greatly to our understanding of radioactivity and the effects of x-rays. She received two Nobel prizes for her brilliant work, but died of leukemia, caused by her repeated exposure to radioactive material.

　　BRISBANE—Australian Olympic chief John Coates has said Greek athlete Katerina Thanou should not be awarded the Sydney Olympics 100 metres gold medal handed back by Marion Jones.

　　Jones, who this week admitted to steroid（類固醇）use in the build up to the Sydney Games, has returned the three gold medals and two bronzes she won in 2000.

　　But Thanou, the silver medalist in Sydney, was herself banned for two years after she failed to appear for a drug test at the 2004 Athens Olympics.

　　“I’d like to think that Katerina Thanou would not be awarded the gold medal,” Coates told the Australian Associated Press on Tuesday, “but there may be some legal difficulties for the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to overcome in order to reach that conclusion.”

　　Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence won the 100m bronze medal in Sydney behind Jones and Thanou.

　　Coates also said he expected the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) to hand back the medals won by the women's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams.

　　Two of Jones’s team mates in the 4x100m team which finished third in Sydney, Torri Edwards and Chryste Gaines, have also served doping（興奮劑）bans.

　　The U.S. women’s 4x100m relay team won the gold medal ahead of Jamaica and Russia.

　　“On the relays, it’s my expectation that the United States Olympic Committee will be required to also hand back the medals won by the other ladies who competed with Jones in the two relays,” Coates said.

　　“That is normal practice.”

　　The United States Olympic Committee (USCO) has publicly apologized to the organizers and competitors of the 2000 Sydney Games and the Australian public for Jones’s actions.

　　As part of the USOC’s apology, president Peter Ueberroth promised that the U.S. would send a clean team to next year’s Beijing Olympics.

　　1. What is the best title of the passage?

　　  A. Jones has returned the Sydney medals

　　  B. Thanou should not receive Sydney gold

　　  C. Steroid use at Sydney Olympics

　　D. The U.S would send a clean team to Beijing Olympics.

　　2. Thanou should not get the Sydney gold medal because________.

　　  A. she didn’t pass the drug test.

　　3. Which of the following statements is True?

　　  B. The USCO has returned medals in the two relays.

　　  C. Thanou should receive Sydney gold medal.

　　  D. Jones also took part in the women’s 4x100m relay race.

　　4. Why did Coates expect the USOC to hand back the medals won in the relay races?

　　  A. Because the IOC required them to do so.

　　  B. Because they didn’t take the first place in the relay races.

　　  C. Because some of the runners of the U.S served doping bans.

　　  D. Because they felt sorry for Jones’s actions.

　　5. What would probably happen next according to the passage?

　　  A. Thanou would receive Sydney gold.

　　  B. Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence would receive Sydney gold.

　　C. Thanou wouldn’t be allowed to take part in the Beijing Olympics.

　　D. Fewer or no American athletes will serve doping drugs in Beijing Olympics.
