【題目】 Before you learned how to walk or talk, you learned how to snack. It started as a handful of Cheerios (面包圈) on your high chair tray (高腳椅), then some Goldfish Cookies after school. In fact, many teens snack as often as four times a day.

The top snack picks for teens are factory made desserts, salty snacks, candies, and fruit drinks. While unprocessed food like strawberries or cheese can give you what your body needs. Those aren’t the foods that are the easiest to get your hands on. Have you looked at the vending machine (投幣式自動售貨機) or local convenience store recently? They’re not exactly filled with oranges or hard boiled eggs.

One reason: There’s less money to be made on real food, so companies have invented “snack food”, which are cheaper to make and take years to go bad.

Still, you buy them anyway. It’s hard not to, thanks to billions of dollars spent on snack-food marketing. You can see ads for these between-meal snacks everywhere— whether they’re TV ads or ads on a phone app. “Everywhere you go, you see ads to snack on the wrong kinds of foods.” says Margo Wootan. “The reason is simpler: The more you eat. the more money food companies make.”

EATING WRONG FOOD

You love chips and cookies. But they’re full of man-made materials and lack of nutrients (營養(yǎng)素) you need like iron.

Do it right: Junky snacks are OK sometimes, but always include fruit or vegetables with every meal or snacks.

REDUCING PROTEIN

Your store’s snack shelf is filled with things that are heavy on fat hut light on protein (蛋白質(zhì)), a nutrient that’s especially filling. So you end up eating more, but still feeling unsatisfied.

Do it right: Stay satisfied between meals by adding a healthy protein to your snacks, like a hard-boiled egg or cheese.

【1】The first paragraph implies (暗示) that ________.

A.eating snacks is becoming our habit

B.snacks are the favourite food of babies

C.a teen usually eats four kinds of snacks at a time

【2】Which is NO!’ included in the top snack picks for teens?

A.Salty snacks.B.Cheese.C.Fruit drinks.

【3】Why isn’t there real food in vending machines?

A.Because it won’t bring more money for companies.

B.Because it isn’t what your body really needs.

C.Because it can’t be easily kept fresh.

【4】From the passage, we can know that ________.

A.Margo Wootan supports the ads on snacks

B.Margo Wootan doesn’t mind the ads on snacks

C.Margo Wootan is against the ads on snacks

【5】What might be the most suitable title for the passage?

A.Are you snacking to death?

B.Are you losing yourself in eating snacks?

C.Are you interested in keeping fit?

【題目】 In your dreams, you may clearly see something or hear someone talking. But what about smells? Can you ever remember smells from your dreams?

A study published in 1896 looked at different sensory (感官的) experiences in dreams. It found visual (視覺的) experience ______ controls one’s dreams. It takes up about 85%, while auditory (聽覺的) makes up 69%, and smell only 7%.

But why? Now scientists have possible reasons based on what is known about the brain.

In our brain, there is a special part called the cerebral cortex (大腦皮層). It is linked to our feelings. As much as two-thirds of the cerebral cortex works in vision (視力). So vision

______ often in dreams. Auditory is closely tied to language, and language is processed entirely in the cerebral cortex. Smell, ______, has little to do with the cerebral cortex. It connects directly into the memory and emotional systems. That’s why a smell can bring back a memory.

Another ______ is that perhaps smell is not easily affected (影響) by our imagination. For example, close your eyes and imagine your favorite dish. What do you get? It is easy to think about what it looks like. But it is not as easy to imagine its smell.

Vision and auditory is a complex (復雜的) process inside the brain. But smell is a direct measurement (衡量) of the chemicals in the air. There is ______ imagination involved in smell. Therefore, smell might not be much affected by the brain activity during dreaming.

It is ______ to taste and touch. That is why you don’t often have the experience of taste and touch in your dreams.

【1】A.hardlyB.firstlyC.mainlyD.completely

【2】A.failsB.appearsC.changesD.enters

【3】A.of courseB.for the first timeC.after allD.on the other hand

【4】A.possibilityB.advantageC.factD.challenge

【5】A.betterB.lessC.moreD.worse

【6】A.kindB.usedC.thankfulD.similar
