If you have to miss one meal a day, which meal will cause you fewest health problems if you don’t eat it? If they have to make a decision of this type, most people （especially very busy people）will choose to skip（忽略） breakfast .
However ,many experts in the field of health consider breakfast （the meal which “breaks” your “fast” which started the night before ）to be the most important meal of the day .If we eat a good breakfast, they say, we will have the energy and nutrients we need to begin our working day with vigor and hopefully with good humour. Nevertheless, many people skip breakfast or substitute a donut and a cup of coffee for a well-balanced meal .What happens if we ignore the importance of breakfast.
One recent study conducted in the United States tested a large number of people .Participants included both males and females who ranged in age from 12—83.During the experiment ,these people were given a variety of breakfasts , and sometimes ,they had to skip breakfast completely .Special tests, including blood tests and endurance（耐力） tests ,were set up to analyze how well the participants` bodies functioned when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast.
The result showed that if a person eats an adequate（充足的） breakfast ,he or she will work more efficiently and more productively than if he or she skips breakfasts or eats a very poor breakfast .This fact appears to be especially true if a person’s work involves metal activity .The study showed that if schoolchildren eat fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, they will learn more quickly and will be able to concentrate on their lessons for a longer period of time than if their breakfast diet is inadequate.
The study also showed that, contrary to what many people believe,if you skip breakfast ,you will not lose weight .This is because people become so hungry if they skip breakfast that they eat too much for lunch and end up gaining weight instead of losing .So remember ,if you are on a diet, skipping breakfast will not help you .You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals .
1．We can safely say _____.
A．if you skip breakfast ,you will not lose weight at all
B．if you skip breakfast ,you won’t eat much for breakfast either .
C．skipping breakfast does a lot of harm
D．skipping breakfast will help one lose weight
2．In the word “breakfast”, “fast” probably means _____.

英才点津系列答案Different people use different languages. We Chinese speak Chinese, and, most of us are learning a foreign language. But there is another kind of language we need to know --- the language of the body.
All over the world, people “talk with their hand, with their heads and with their eyes.” When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British do? Americans are more imformal(不拘小节的) than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved(保守的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask your name.
When British or American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man, he just smiles, and says, “Hello.” Men do not kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.
