【解析】变得更健康并不需要借助超能量才能达到,本文就如何变得更健康给出了四点建议。

1这一段的主题句是Write it and measure it,首先,E选项Resolutions should be both specific and measurable中的both...and..符合小标题中的and形式。其次,write it的目的就是使健身的目的明确,即specific ;measure it的目的是使健身的目的具备可衡量性,即measurable。所以E选项是对主题句的解释说明,符合语境,故选E.

2分析前文"I want to lose weight"is a pretty common resolution(方案),but how exactly do you go from point A to point B?可知“想要减肥”是个很普通的健身方案,但具体你该怎样从A点到达B点呢?再结合划线处的后文例子“接下来的六周,每周去体育馆三到四次,减10磅体重”可知,这是一个具体的减肥方案。所以作者在划线处要表达的意思是应该使你的方案更具体些。C选项Instead,try setting a more specific goal符合语境,故选C。

3根据前文So if your goal is to go from never running to finishing a half-marathon,start training gradually如果你的目标是从从未跑步到完成半个马拉松,那就一步一步地开始训练。其中F选项Begin by walking a few miles,and steadily increase it to jogging,and then running.刚开始走几英里,然后持续增加距离到慢跑,然后跑步。分析可知F选项符合语境,并且Begin by;and;then这一系列词表明的就是逐步训练的过程,和前文的gradually符合。故选F。

4这一题是选择这一段的主题句符合主题句句式的只有A选项和B选项。根据后文If you're curious about new techniques,book a session with a personal trainer to clear up confusion and help prevent injury.如果你对某一种新的技巧感到好奇,那就向一个私人教练预定一学期的健身课程来清除疑惑,同时也可以避免受伤。分析语境可知当你遇到问题,不懂某种健身技巧,可以寻求帮助。故选A。

5这一段的主题句是Think outside the box,也就是打破常规思考。后文中说如果“你”只是想燃烧卡路里,那你可以选择打电话的时候到处走走,甚至可以做家务来达到这一目的,也就是说不必非要选择某种运动。D选项中的Exercise doesn't have to be a formal activity“锻炼不一定非得是某种正式的运动”符合语境。故选D。

【题目】In agrarian(农业的), pre-industrial Europe, youd want to wake up early, start working with the sunrise, have a break to have the largest meal, and then youd go back to work,says Ken Albala, a professor of history at the University of the Pacific. Later, at 5 or 6, youd have a smaller supper.

This comfortable cycle, in which the rhythms of the day helped shape the rhythms of the meals, gave rise to the custom of the large midday meal, eaten with the extended family. Meals are the foundation of the family,says Carole Couniban, a professor at Millersville University in Pennsylvania, so there was a very important interconnection between eating together and strengthening family ties.”

Since industrialization, maintaining such a slow cultural metabolism has been much harder, with the long midday meal shrinking to whatever could be stuffed into a lunch bucket or bought at a food stand. Certainly, there were benefits. Modern techniques for producing and shipping food led to greater variety and quantity, including a tremendous increase in the amount of animal protein and dairy products available, making us more energetic than our ancestors.

Yet plenty has been lost too, even in cultures that still live to eat. Take Italy. Its no secret that the Mediterranean diet is healthy, but it was also a joy to prepare and eat. Italians, says Counihan, traditionally began the day with a small meal. The big meal came at around 1 p.m. In between the midday meal and a late, smaller dinner came a small snack. Today, when time zones have less and less meaning, there is little tolerance for offices closing for lunch, and worsening traffic in cities means workers cant make it home and back fast enough anyway. So the formerly small supper after sundown becomes the big meal of the day, the only one at which the family has a chance to get together. The evening meal carries the full burden that used to be spread over two meals,” says Counihan.

1What does Professor Carole Counihan say about pre-industrial European families eating meals together

A. It was helpful to maintaining a nations tradition.

B. It brought family members closer to each other.

C. It was characteristic of the agrarian culture.

D. It enabled families to save a lot of money.

2What does cultural metabolism”(Line 1, Para. 3) refer to

A. Evolutionary adaptation. B. Changes in lifestyle.

C. Social progress. D. Pace of life.

3What does the author think of the food people eat today?

A. Its quality is usually guaranteed.

B. It is varied, abundant and nutritious.

C. It is more costly than what our ancestors ate.

D. Its production depends too much on technology.

4What does the author say about Italians of the old days?

A. They enjoyed cooking as well as eating.

B. They ate a big dinner late in the evening.

C. They ate three meals regularly every day.

D. They were expert at cooking meals.
