【题目】 Even if you love fish, actually cooking it in your kitchen can be a commitment. Long after the fish has been eaten, the pots washed, and the plates put in the dishwasher, the fish smell still exits.1 Luckily, expert cooks have figured out how you can cook your fish without leaving a smell that exists for days.

First off, know that truly fresh fish really shouldn't have much of an odor(气味)at all. So if you unwrap a package of fish and take a step back from the smell that greets you, throw it away because it's not fresh.2

A lot of the smell from cooking fish is because of the cooking method you use.3

However, other techniques, like cooking fish in paper, can put a lid on the problem before it starts. Cleaning experts recommend minimizing the odor before cooking by bathing fish in milk or a solution of lemon and water.

If it's too late and your home is beginning to smell like the parking lot of a seafood joint, then Good Housekeeping suggests mixing together vinegar and water and letting it boil for several minutes to get rid of the smell.

4 Shut any inside doors to keep the smell from spreading throughout the house and into bedrooms, but open up kitchen windows and doors to allow the smell to get out. And be sure to wipe any spills and throw away any trash containing fish bits.5 And the resulting sweet scent will make everyone forget about any fishy odor.

AFrying can cause a big smell problem.

BPrepare your home ahead offish cooking time.

CHere's how to make every room smell amazing.

DCooking fish wrong brings about terrible smells.

EWhen all else fails, bake up some cookies for dessert.

FBut, admittedly, even the freshest fish can get a bit of smell once it's cooked.

GIt can be enough to put even the most devoted fish eater off cooking it regularly.

【题目】 Do you love holidays but hate the increase weight that follows? You are not alone.

Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the weight that comes along with the delicious foods.

With proper planning, though, it is possible to control your weight. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following suggestions may be of some help to you.

Do not miss meals. Before you leave home for a feast, have a small, low-fat snack. This may help to keep you from getting too excited before delicious foods.

Begin with clear soup, fruit or vegetables. A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full. Use a small plate; a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough.

Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.

Choose lean meat. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.

If you have a sweet tooth, try mints and fruit. They don’t have fat content as cream and chocolate.

Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk after a meal can help burn off excess calories.

【题目】There is some unwelcome news for students preparing for exams and officers putting in long hours—you don’t need that “refreshment(提神) break” as much as you may think.

Scientists believed it was not easy for people to continue their work if they felt the need to have a snack or a rest to make them feel better. They argued that the only way to regain willpower is by supplying more energy to our bodies with rest, food or entertainment.

But psychologists have challenged this theory, saying weak willpower is in your head. They found that a person’s mindset(理念) and belief about willpower determine how long and how well they’ll be able to work on a tough mental exercise. “If you think of willpower as something that’s limited, you’re more likely to be tired when you perform a difficult task,” said Professor Veronika Job. “But if you think of willpower as something that is not easily depleted, you can go on and on.”

The researchers led by Mr. Job designed an experiment to test the students’ beliefs about willpower. After a tiring task those who believed or were led to believe that willpower was a limited resource performed worse on standard concentration tests than those who thought of willpower as something they had more control over.

Mr. Job said, “Students who may already have trouble studying are being told that their powers of concentration are limited, and they need to take frequent breaks. But a belief in willpower as a non-limited resource makes people stronger in their ability to work through challenges.”

The findings could help people who are battling with temptation(诱惑):people following strict diets and doing exercise regularly to lose weight, people trying to overcome addictions, employees facing a tight deadline. Willpower isn’t driven by a biologically based process as much as we used to think.

1What opinion did scientists have in the past?

A. Willpower was a limited resource.

B. It was hard to regain willpower.

C. Hardworking people seldom took breaks.

D. People could easily feel tired when working.

2Which of the following can replace the underlined word “depleted” in paragraph 3?

A. Given up. B. Recovered.

C. Used up. D. Changed.

3What can we learn from the findings of the experiment?

A. Students benefit most from the research.

B. Frequent breaks are not good for learning.

C. Will power can be regained after people have a good rest.

D. The belief in willpower can change a man’s behaviour.

4Why does the author write the text?

A. To explain the power of willpower.

B. To show us how to build willpower.

C. To tell us the ways of gaining willpower.

D. To introduce a new theory on willpower.
