The Diet Zone: A Dangerous Place

Diet Coke ,diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet…We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.

Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.

On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink,we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

The danger of diet products lees not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products my not be nutritional,and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.

1.From Paragraph 1, we learn that__________.

A. diet products fail to bring out people’s potential

B. people have difficulty in choosing diet products

C. diet products are misleading people

D. people are fed up with diet products

2.One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to______.

A. try out a variety of diet foods

B. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods

C. pay attention to their own eating habits

D. watch their weight rather than their diet

3.In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means________.

A. losing weight is effortless

B. it costs a lot to lose weight

C. diet products bring no pain

D. diet products are free from calories

4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage ?

A. B.

C. D.

19．Good morning，ladies and gentlemen．Today，I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws．Because we hope that your visit in England will be a pleasant one．
The first one is about drinking．Now，you may not buy alcohol （酒） in this country if you are under 18years old，nor may your friends buy it for you．
Secondly，noise．Enjoy yourselves by all means，but please don't make unnecessary noise，especially at night．We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet．
Thirdly，crossing the road．Be careful！The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this country．Use pedestrian crossings （人行横道） and do not take any chances when crossing the road．
My next point is about litter （throwing away waste material in a public place）．It is
an offense （违法行为） to drop litter in the street．When you have something to throw
away，please put it in your pocket and take it home，or put it in a litter bin．
Finally，it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco （烟草） if you are under
16years old．
I'd like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help or assistance，you
should contact your local police station，who will be pleased to help you．
Now，are there any questions？

25．The main purpose of this speech would be toB．
A．attract more people to travel in England
B．give advice to travellers to the country
C．prepare people for international travel

27．From the speech we learn thatD．
A．in this country，if you are under 18years old，you may not buy alcohol，but your friend can buy it for you
B．because the traffic moves on the right of the road，you must use pedestrian crossing when crossing the road
C．you can't make noise except at night
D．you may not buy cigarettes or tobacco unless you are over 16years old．

16．For years we have been told that encouraging a child's self-respect is important to his or her success in life．But child experts are now learning that too much praise can lead to the opposite effect． Praise-aholic kids who expect it at every turn may become teens who seek the same kind of approval from their friends when asked if they want to go in the backseat of the car．
The implication （含义） of saying"You are the prettiest girl in class，"or talking about the goals she scored but not her overall effort，is that you love her only when she looks the best，scores the highest，achieves the most．And this carries over to the classroom．
Social psychologist Carol Dweck，PhD，tested the effects of overpraise on 400fifth graders while she was at Columbia University．She found that kids praised for"trying hard"did better on tests and were more likely to take on difficult assignments than those praised for being"smart"．
"Praising attributes （品质） or abilities makes a false promise that success will come to you because you have that quality，and it devalues effort，so children are afraid to take on challenges，"says Dweck，now at Stanford University．"They figure they'd better quit while they're ahead．"

29．The underlined words"Praise-aholic kids"refer to kids who areD．
A．tired of being praised             
B．worthy of being praised
C．very proud of being praised        
D．extremely fond of being praised
30．The author quoted （引用） Dr．Dweck's words in the last paragraph in order to make the articleC．
A．better-known    
B．better-organized    
C．more persuasive   
D．more interesting
31．We can infer from the passage thatA．
A．praise for efforts should be more encouraged
B．praise for results works better than praise for efforts
C．praising a child's achievements benefits his or her success in life
D．praising a child's abilities encourages him or her to take on challenges．
3．Every day our life is full of images，videos，music and news．In this age of visual and aural hyperstimulation（视听的高度刺激），the medium of radio is making a marked comeback．
"We're at the dawn of a golden age of audio，"said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald．In the last month alone，15percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast．These data，released by Edison Research，reveal the successful
evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present day's digital podcast format（播客形式）．The term"podcast，"was coined in 2004，but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years．Since the leap in consumer demand for smart phones and tablets，podcast subscription rates have only accelerated．
You can tune in during those extra minutes of the day when you're walking to the shops，waiting in a queue or riding the subway．Similar to television shows，podcasts are generally
free to download on computer or iPod and most offer new content every week．
Donna Jackson，22，Sydney University media graduate，listens to podcasts two or three times a week，via-iTunes．¨I listen while I'm hanging out in the house doing something else．
It makes completing a boring task a lot more enjoyable…And it's an easy way of keeping in
touch with what's going on in the rest of the world，"she said．"I mainly listen to BBC
podcasts，but recently I've also been tuning into This American Life and Serial．"
Unlike television and music，the audio format has the ability to create a deep impression
on readers．Blumberg says this comes down to the podcast's ability"to create emotional connection．"Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust，major in social work and arts，
agrees．"When you're tuned in，it feels as if the podcaster is talking directly to you．It's comforting，"said Proust．
It seems the age-old tradition of verbal（口头的）storytelling is very much alive and well．

32．According to the passage，which of the following is Not a suitable time to listen to procasts？A
A．Attending a lecture．  B．Riding the subway．
C．Walking to the shop．  D．Waiting for a bus．
33．According to the passage，one difference between television and audio format is
thatA．
A．only audio format has the ability to create emotional connection to download
B．only audio format helps people keep in touch with the world's change
C．only television provides new content every week
D．only television shows can be free
34．What does the underlined word"coined"in paragraph 2mean？C
A．written．  B．thought．  C．invented．  D．found．
35．It can be inferred from passage thatB
A．people like to listen to podcasts when they work
B．podcasts are more and more popular with people
C．the voice of the podcaster attracts many listeners
D．people keep in touch with each other by listening to podcasts．

20．Shi Fang spends more than 4，000 yuan a month shopping，but she rarely goes to the shopping mall．"Why need a shopping mall if you have Taobao？I am a Taobaoer，"says Shi，28，a writer in Beijing．
A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Shi have discovered the joys of online shopping．The China Internet Network Information Center （CNNIC） announced in December that more than 87 million Chinese made purchases on the Internet in the first half year，which means one out of four Chinese netizens have online shopping experience．
It is estimated that the consumption from online shopping will reach more than 250 billion yuan this year，and 80 percent of this is carried out through Taobao．com，China's fast-growing e-commerce hub （枢纽） set up in 2003．
The biggest attraction for Shi Fang is the relatively low price for online goods，compared with those in stores in bricks．Her favorite facial cream costs 1，680 yuan for a 30ml bottle in the local shop，but a 10ml sample of the same brand only costs 68 yuan online．
The Taobao instant messenger，a communication channel for buyers and sellers，also makes onlrne shopping easier and ensures the overall experience for both parties Shi Fang regards it as a platform to promote trust and keep contact．
"You can check the information easily．It is sweet that the owner will remember you once you have regular chat with him or her through the messenger．You may receive some personalized service such as getting more samples or certain discount，"said Shi While some may question the security of online purchases，Yang Fei，another Taobaoer，gave a thumb-up for Alipay，the Taobao payment method started by Alibaba Group in 2004 in partnership with leading banks in China．It enabled her to make a lot of purchases online．
"It's very safe and convenient．Unless you confirm the arrival and satisfaction about the purchase，the shop owner will not get the money．You can also get the refund（退款） if you want to return the purchase，"she added．

67．According to the passage，Taobao isA．
    A．a website where people can buy different things
    B．an Internet store where we can buy whatever we want
    C．a website where people can make friends all over the country
    D．a messenger through which people can bargain with each other
68．Which of the following is NOT the advantage of shopping online？C
    A．Personalized service．               B．Reasonable price．
    C．Rich experience．                    D．Its convenience．
69．It can be inferred from the passage thatA．
    A．the consumption through Taobao．corn may be over 200 billion yuan this year
    B．consumers won't get any samples because of the low prices
    C．consumers can communicate with sellers mainly on the phone
    D．one fourth of Chinese citizens have online shopping experience
70．Which of the following would be the best title？D
    A．The Taobao Messenger
    B．Online Shopping Process
    C．An Online Shopping Experience
    D．A Booming Online Shopping Hub．
17．Group buying is one of the fastest growing trends in South Africa today．Industry leaders are confident the growth potential remains strong since group buying is location-specific（区域性的）．Start-up costs are low and profit room remains high，so many sites continue to receive invested money despite widespread criticism and Facebook's decision to phase out of the deals business due to privacy concerns．
In the early stages of all industries，some companies fail because they cannot compete with stronger companies in difficult economic conditions．To deal with difficult conditions，an alarming number of businesses are developing group buying websites in places like China and India，so the increase of group buying in South Africa is nothing more than a natural progression into the international mainstream．
The group buying concept is fairly new and consumers have accepted this concept because they can now make full use of the rich information available on the Internet．Group buying is convenient and easy so it works．Anyone can view a site，join a mailing list，subscribe to RSS or print out a coupon（优惠券）．The current group buying structure offered by the industry leaders works although there are still challenges to overcome．
Perhaps，the future of group buying is tied to the joining together of social media and mobile devices．Mobile devices are with us wherever we go and almost everyone is using some type of social media site like Facebook or Twitter to stay informed．Using GPS and social media technology to provide real time location-specific promotions would be beneficial to every consumer looking for the best deals in town．
Pause for a moment and think about it!What is better than signing on to your phone while having fun in town and you receive a real time information that your favorite shop across the street is offering a killer deal？
The future of the group buying in South Africa is bright and we can expect to see more advanced approaches to this concept in the future．In addition to the technological advances consumers will see the range of promotions expand to include new products and services．

72．What does the underlined phrase"phase out of"mean in the passage？A
A．Gradually stop．    B．Gradually increase．
C．Begin to develop．  D．Continue to enlarge．
73．The author sets China and India as examples to show thatD．
A．China and India are powerful countries
B．China and India are in difficult economic conditions
C．group buying is successful worldwide
D．group buying is an international trend
74．Which of the following is true according to the passage？C
A．People have accepted group buying because it's a new concept．
B．Social media and mobile devices have been joined together for group buying．
C．GPS and social media technology will be helpful in group buying．
D．Shops usually offer a killer deal when their customers are having fun．
75．The author's attitude towards the future of group buying isB．
A．pessimistic      B．optimistic      C．objective         D．subjective．
18．April 22，2010 will be the 18th celebration of the annual Take Our Daughters to Work Day （TOD），a project the National Ms．Foundation for Women of America （NFW） developed to expose girls to expanding opportunities for women in the workplace．
         The program offers，millions of girls a first-hand view of the many career opportunities available in their futures．Now that women make up 46 percent of the U．S．workforce，girls can find role models in every occupational field-from politics to molecular biology to professional athletics，to name just a few．TOD encourages girls to focus on their abilities and opportunities，not just their appearance．
         The NFW developed the project more than a decade ago to address the self-esteem problems that many girls experience when they enter adolescence．At school，boys often receive more encouragement in the classroom，especially in math．science and computer science，the academic fields that tend to lead to the highest salaries．Women receive on average only 73 cents for every dollar that men are paid．and remain vastly underrepresented （数量不足） in top executive positions and technology fields．TOD aims to give girls the confidence and inspiration they need to develop successful careers，particularly in non-traditional fields．
         Perhaps because the program had become so widespread and successful，TOD had been criticized for excluding boys，and it was expanded in 2003to include boys．The program's official website states that the program was changed in order to provide both boys and girls with opportunities to explore careers at an age when they are more flexible in tenns of gender stereotyped roles．"We should also show boys that becoming a child care provider is as acceptable a choice as becoming a police officer or CEO，"added Sara K．Gould．executive director of the NFW．
