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。
Is bottled water better for you than tap? Or should you choose vitamin-enriched water? Experts say, skip it all．None of these products is likely to make you any healthier．Below, we look at four major myths about the benefits of drinking water． 1 Experts say there’s an easy way to judge．If you are not thirsty, your fluid intake is likely “just right”
Myth No 1：Drink eight glasses each day．
Scientists say there’s no clear health benefit of drinking so much water a day． 2 “Nobody really knows,” says Dr．Stanley Goldfarb, a kidney expert at the University of Pennsylvania．
Myth No．2：Lots of water equals healthier skin．
The body is already 60 percent water． 3 Adding a few extra glasses of water each day has a limited effect．“It’s such a tiny part of what’s in the body,” says Goldfarb．“ It’s very unlikely that one’s getting any benefit．”
Myth No．3： 4
A more accurate statement may be：Drinking water is a helpful tool for dieters．“Water is a great strategy for dieters because it has no calories,” says Madeline Fernstrom of the University of Pittsburgh．“So you can keep your mouth busy without food and get a sense of satisfaction．” But water is not magical, she adds．“Other zero-calorie options such as diet sodas are fine, too．”
Myth No．4：It’s easy to get dehydrated(脱水的)during a workout．
Dehydration sets in when a person has lost 2 percent of his or her body weight． 5 “It’s also obvious that individuals in hot, dry climates have an increased need for water,” says Goldfarb．“But for a walk in the park, no water bottle is necessary．”
A．So where does the standard advice come from?
B．But it’s unclear whether these changes are clinically significant．
C．So for a 200-pound man, this means losing 4 pounds of water．
D．Drinking extra water leads to weight loss．
E．Drink as much water as you can．
F．So, if you take a 200-pound man, he’s 120 pounds of water．
G．But first, how do you know if you’re drinking enough water?

第二节：完型填空(共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分)
Recently I was invited to a friend’s house for supper—and had a meal I have never had before.
All the friends invited were a little 36 . It’s not that Ben is unsociable, or a bad cook, but it’s just that he never 37 more than he has to. So how come he was inviting us round for a meal? Had he bought something 38 for his friends? He greeted us at the door and showed us into his dining room where a 39 table was waiting for us. “Nothing but the 40 for my friends! ” said Ben. We all sat down and looked 41 at each other—what was he 42 ?
Ben returned with four bowls of hot soup. “It’s a 43 of carrots, potatoes and tomatoes, ”said Ben. The next 44 was also a little strange 45 we didn’t quite know what it was again. “It’s just another mixture of vegetables. ”
As we ate we chatted and finally the 46 turned back to what we were eating. “Was there a recipe(菜谱) for this, ”asked Marina, “or did you 47 it up? ”Ben put his fork down. “What I cooked 48 what I could find. ”Marina was surprised. “But you can find anything in supermarkets these days. ”“But there’s 49 choice in what you can find 50 supermarkets, ” he replied.
51 that we had all finished the food, Ben decided to tell the truth. He had read recently that supermarkets usually 52 away 5 percent of their food every day. So Ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. There he found food that was slightly out of 53 , boxes of thrown-away vegetables and fruit.
