【题目】The latest study by the University of Florida has found that eating from smaller, less beautiful, and even paper plates will help prevent overeating. Eating with a fork instead of a spoon can help you lose weight, the researchers say. Much to their surprise, they find that putting mirrors in the dining room will also help reduce weight.

The researchers asked 185 college students to choose a chocolate cake or a fruit salad, and evaluated the taste. Those who ate in a room with a mirror scored the taste of junk food much lower than those in a room without a mirror. But the taste of fruit salad remained the same in any case.

Lead scientist, Dr. Ata Jami, says that a glance in the mirror tells people more than just about their physical appearance. It enables them to view themselves objectively (客观地) and helps them to judge themselves and their behavior in the same way that they judge other people.

The mirrors were found to push people to compare and match their own behavior with accepted social standards. The researchers believe it proves that people don’t want to look in the mirror when they feel they are following the social standards. When they look in the mirror with mouths full of junk food, feelings of discomfort and failure can be increased. Therefore, the presence of the mirror lowers the taste of unhealthy food.

However, researchers say this is only the case if people select the food they are eating, because they are responsible for that choice. The researchers suggest that mirrors be placed in dining rooms and other eating spaces, so that people will start eating more healthily.

1Researchers are amazed to find that ______.

A. paper plates make food look nicer

B. people using a fork will eat more

C. mirrors can help people lose weight

D. people will eat more in front of a mirror

2What can be inferred from the study?

A. Some teenagers got involved in it.

B. People were required to eat with a spoon.

C. People preferred a chocolate cake to a fruit salad.

D. The mirror may not affect the taste of healthy food.

3According to Dr. Ata Jami, the mirror ______.

A. makes people judge others correctly

B. makes people well judge themselves

C. is a necessary part of people’s daily life

D. can only show the appearance of a person

4How does the mirror affect the taste of junk food?

A. By making people hungry.

B. By showing the social standards.

C. By attracting people to healthy food.

D. By causing a feeling of discomfort.

【题目】Everyone knows how important trees are to the good of the earth. 1By providing shade (树萌)for us to enjoy time outside, trees can shade our homes and keep them cooler in the summer time. They can hide views, reduce noise from nearby roads and serve as windbreaks. Many types also produce flowers and fruits. These tall plants simply make our homes and neighborhoods more beautiful.

Choosing Trees

2Planting a tree is a long-term job. Large trees, especially, take a long time to grow. And once planted, they are difficult to move. Tress can also be a kind of wealth, so it’s important to chose wisely.

Many yards have space for only a few large plants. 3So take the time to choose a plant that will grow well in the conditions you can provide.

Care

Once you’ve made a choice, you’ll need to prepare your site for planting. 4If you plant trees yourself, carefully follow the instructions given by the experts or read “How to Plant a Tree”. Your success depends on proper planting.

Providing proper care after it’s planted is also important. Young plants should be cared for the first few years. Feed regularly(定期)and water deeply, so they become strong and healthy. 5.

A. They also provide homes for wildlife.

B. Full-grown plants usually don’t need to be watered.

C. You may need to clear the site and improve the soil.

D. When planting, it’s wise to make your choices carefully.

E. You may not have room to grow all the types you want to try.

F. They develop large root systems and can grow for themselves

G. There are also many advantages of growing them in our own yard.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Theme park getaways are popular with families, but they sure aren’t cheap. Happily, there are some golden rules of ticket-buying that apply to pretty much every theme park, and they can help you chip away at the cost of tickets. 1.

●Buy tickets online.

Never ever pay the walk-up ticket price at a theme park. 2.You're guaranteed to save a significant sum-sometimes as much as $$ 20 per ticket-even for same-day tickets.

●Buy in advance.

3.For instance, Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California, slices off $$25 per ticket when you make your purchase at least three days ahead.

4.

This one is a universal no-brainer. Single-day ticket prices at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, are about 30 percent less than admission on Saturdays and Sundays. But the big bonus is that lines will be much shorter, allowing you to spend less time waiting in lines and more time having fun.

●Go in the afternoon.

5.For example, Hersheypark’s sunset tickets allow entry after 4 pm or 5 pm, depending on the day. You'll still get between four to six hours of fun before the park closes, and you'll pay up to 50 percent less than the full-day ticket price.

A. Avoid weekends.

B. Buy more tickets than you need.

C. Here are some ways to lower your theme park spending.

D. At larger parks, you’ll save money when you buy a package.

E. Instead, visit the theme park website and print out your tickets before you go.

F. Some parks offer deeply discounted tickets for visitors arriving later in the day.

G. Most theme parks offer a price cut if you buy tickets at least a few days before you arrive.
