Eating disorder is very common now. "When I first wrote about this. the problem was pretty much hidden … I didn't expect it to get as bad as it is. " Susie Orbach, an international authority（权威）on eating disorders, said.

Orbach must at times think the anti-diet message of her book “fat is a Feminist Issue（女权主义问题）”has been lost since it was written more than 20 years ago.

Girls, boys, old people—even the famously well-rounded female population of Fiji are falling victims（牺牲品）to fat fear.

"If anything, the situation has got much, much worse. We now have kids as young as eight and women in old people's homes worried about the way they look. “Orbach said.

Even though it has been proved that repeated dieting results in a little more than regaining most of the lost weight, constant dieting has become a way of life for many women. 48 per cent of British women aged 25 to 35 were on some kind of diet and 20 per cent of young women dieted all or most of time. Some of them said they would pop a pill to give them their beautiful shape, even if it meant risking their health. Worldwide, 70 million people have an eating disorder. Most are women, but men are increasingly affected, too.

More than half the women and two thirds of the men in Britain weigh too much. while in the United States more than one quarter of adults and about one in five children are overweight. The idea that female beauty is a very thin body could be changed, if clothing factories and magazines showed images（形象）of women of all shapes instead of selecting skeletal-like models and stick-thin actress.

But that is easier said than done.

To get the message across, Orbach is also considering talking to pop stars such as Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell, both of whom have admitted__________________.

surging commodity (商品) prices could worsen poverty in many poor countries, the International Monetary Fund warned Tuesday.

A new IMF study, seeing the effect of soaring oil and food costs, said many poor and developing countries would likely have to change their economic policies in response to soaring commodity prices. “Some countries are at a dangerous point，” warned IMF managing director Dominique Strauss?Kahn.

“If food prices rise further and oil prices stay the same, some governments will no longer be able to feed their people and at the same time keep stability in their economies，” Strauss?Kahn said. The IMF chief called for a “broad cooperative approach” to help handle higher oil and food prices, and said the IMF stood ready to assist countries in need. Strauss?Kahn said the international community would also have to play a role in helping to reduce the effect of commodity price shocks which have caused protests in some countries. European truckers have blockaded major roads to protest fuel prices in recent weeks and food riots (骚乱) have occurred in Cameroon, Bangladesh, and Somalia among other countries in recent months. “Poor countries that are highly dependent on food imports are particularly vulnerable (易受影响的) to rising food prices，” the IMF report said.

Anti?poverty campaigners are concerned that rising commodity costs could roll back advances made through anti?poverty campaigns in recent years, particularly because poorer families tend to spend much more of their household income on food. The IMF report found that poor households are most affected by food price inflation and “warned that the share of undernourished people in developing countries could rise rapidly above the current 40 percent of total population”．

Energy and food values are still rising and the IMF said its research suggests “the problem is worsening”. The Washington?based fund said it is working closely with its member countries to help reduce inflationary (通货膨胀的) pressures taking into account countries' specific needs. The report said that global food markets “need to be kept open” and that “restrictive policies”， such as export taxes and bans, should be removed.

C．Because energy and labor costs are still rising and the problem is worsening.

D．Because the IMF hasn't prepared well to assist countries in need.

3．According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?

A．The problem of commodity price increase exists all over the world.

B．Some developing countries do better in controlling oil price increase.

Paula and Rory have fives kids, three dogs, and a rabbit. When the house is very noisy, Megan, one of the children, is quietly inventing. A year ago, the 10-year-old had to design an anti-smoking poster, she came up with the idea of creating something that shows the average amount of tar(尼古丁) a smoker collects from just four packs of cigarettes.
“I like people to play with things more than read and write,” she says. So she researched her idea on the Internet, found a company in China that could make it, saved up her pocket money and got her idea made.
Paula says her daughter “think differently”: Ideas jump into her mind. After she got sunburnt on holiday, Megan invented a small plastic bracelet(手镯) that changes colors in the sun, telling you when to put on sunscreen(防晒霜). Several sunscreen companies have expressed an interest in the idea. She also came up with an idea to make a ball filled with water to stop the dog from feeling thirsty. “But we didn’t do anything with it,” says Paula.
Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod(钓鱼竿) she had designed. “There is a camera on the hook(钩),” she explains, “and the screen is on the handle, and it shows if you’ve caught a fish or not.”
Megan doesn’t want to go to university. She keeps her pink-and -cream bedroom tidy. Paula is amazed and a bit confused by her daughter. “Everything has to be in a certain order,” Paula says. “Her brothers and sisters go with the flow, but with Megan, it’s ‘What time will that be happening?’ or ‘Where am I being picked up from today?’”

“NOW I just don't believe that. ”Surely all of us, at some point, have watched a movie and thought: It's simply badly researched，or the makers must think we're fools. Recently, The Daily Telegraph ran a humorous piece on untrue tech moments from some top movies. Let’s see what they are all about.
Tom Chiver, the writer of The Daily Telegraph uses his first example from the movie Independence Day, in which a character comes up with a virus（病毒）which destroys Windows the computer system the alien （外星人）spacecraft uses. “It's a good thing that they didn't have Norton Anti-virus，” jokes  Chivers.
It's just one case of a movie that takes a lot of license with its science. Another one Chivers mentions is from the movie Star Wars, where the glowing light beams (光束）traveling through space look very impressive. But the problem is that in space there are no air particles (粒子）for the light to reflect off. In reality, they'd be invisible（看不见的）, which wouldn’t look so cool on the big screen.
Most people think that the mind—bending Matrix films are made for great viewing. But for Chivers, the science in the movies is a little bit silly. He comments “…the film is based on the idea that humans are kept alive as electricity generators (发电机). This is not just unlikely —it's basically impossible. They would need more energy to stay alive than they would produce. It's just like saying that you'll power the car with batteries, and keep the batteries charged by running a generator from the wheels. ”
And finally, as Chivers points out, DNA is not replaceable. But this bit of elementary genetics passed the makers of the 2002 Bond film Die Another Day by. In the film the bad guy has “gene treatment” to change his appearance and his DNA, which is completely impossible in our real world.
【小题1】Which of the following does the writer agree with about the movie Independence Day?

A．It's a science fiction movie.
B．It's about the alien spacecraft.
C．It's produced by Tom Chiver.
D．It's a jokey and humorous one.
【小题2】 What is mainly talked about in the 4th paragraph?
A．How we can power the car with batteries.
B．How Tom Chiver thinks of the Matrix films.
C．How humans are kept alive as power generator.
D．How the Matrix films are made for great viewing.
【小题3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．The movie Star Wars is about the light beams in space.
B．The author doesn't take the science in movies seriously.
C．Nowadays nobody believes in science movies any more.
D．There is a horrible virus in the movie Independence Day.
【小题4】The underlined word “They” in the 4th paragraph refers to ______.
A．human beings B．car wheels
C．Matrix films D．electricity generators

I’m not so sure I like my friends any more. I used to like them — to be honest. We’d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e-mails, and they all seemed normal enough. But then came Facebook and I was introduced to a sad fact: many of my friends have dark sides that they had kept from me.
Today my friends show off the more unpleasant aspects of their personalities via Facebook. No longer hidden, they’re thrown in my face like TV commercials — unavoidable and endless advertisements for the worst of their personalities.
Take Fred. If you were to have lunch with him, you’d find him warm, and down-to-earth. Read his Facebook and you realize he’s an unbearable, food-obsessed bore. He’d pause to have a cup of coffee on his way to save a drowning man — and then write about it.
Take Andy. You won’t find a smarter CEO anywhere, but now he’s a CEO without a company to lull. So he plays Mafia Wars on Facebook. He’s doing well — level 731. Thanks to Facebook, I know he’s playing about 18 hours a day. Andy, you’ve run four companies — and this is how you spend your downtime? What happened to golf? What happened to getting another job?
Take Liz. She is positive that the H1N1 vaccine will kill us all and that we should avoid it. And then comes Chris who likes to post at least 20 times a day on every website he can find, so I get to read his thoughts twice, once on Facebook and once on Twitter.
In real life, I don’t see these sides of people. Face to face, my friends show me their best. They’re nice, smart people. But face to Facebook, my friends are like a blind date which goes horribly wrong.
I’m left with a dilemma. Who is my real friend? Is it the Liz I have lunch with or the anti-vaccine lunatic(狂人)on Facebook? Is it the Fred I can grab a sandwich with or the Fred who weeps if he’s at a party and the wine isn’t up to his standards?
【小题1】Who is opposed to the H1N1 vaccine in the text?

A．Fred.B．Andy.C．Liz.D．Chris.
【小题2】What’s Andy probably busy in doing now?
A．He’s running his company.
B．He’s playing golf all day.
C．He’s looking for another job.
D．He’s playing computer games.
【小题3】According to the text, Facebook tends to ______.
A．present another side of people
B．offer some food for free
C．show endless advertisements
D．get you to more parties
【小题4】The text is developed mainly by ______.
A．giving examplesB．following the time order
C．listing figuresD．raising questions
【小题5】The author focuses on the question of ______.
A．what is FacebookB．what happened to golf
C．who is my real friendD．who can help me
