Easy Ways to Reach and Keep a Healthy Weight

Weight loss is most likely to be successful when people change their habits, replacing old, unhealthy ones with new, healthy ones. Here are 5 ways to make that happen.

1.Exercises.

1. Walking the family dog, cycling to school and doing other things that increase your daily level of activity can all make a difference. If you want to burn more calories, increase the intensity of your workout and add some strength exercise to build muscles. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, even when you aren't exercise.

2. 2.

One reason people get less exercise these days is an increase in screen time-- the amount of time spent watching TV, surfing the Internet or playing video games. Limit recreational screen time to less than 2 hours per day.

3. Watch out for sugary drinks.

One key factor in weight gain is that some people drink lots of sugary drinks, such as soda, juice drinks and sports drinks. 3.

4. Eat 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day.

4. They're also packed with fiber, which means they can fill you up. And when you fill yourself up on fruit and vegetables, you are less likely to overeat when it comes to high-calorie foods like chips and cookies.

5. 5.

Breakfast can promote your metabolism(新陳代謝), burning calories and giving you energy to do more during the day. People who skip(跳過) breakfast often feel so hungry that they eat more later on. So they get more calories than they would have if they didn't eat breakfast.

A. Reduce screen time.

B. Don't skip breakfast.

C. So go for water or low-fat milk instead of sugary drinks.

D. Diets aren't the way to go when it comes to losing weight.

E. Fruit and vegetables are about more than just vitamins and minerals..

F. Most dieters gain back all the lost weight when they go back to their old eating habits.

G. Regular physical activity burns calories and builds muscles, both of which help you look and feel good and keep weight off.

Sometimes we can get so caught up in the stress and worry of our personal lives that our minds become too confused to operate effectively.This is especially dangerous in a test-taking situation.After hours of reading and studying,our brains can lock up in a state of overload.

In a stressful situation it's often a must to clear your mind completely to allow your brain to refresh itself and recalibrate all of its functions.But when you're tense,clearing your mind isn't so easy!Try this relaxation technique if you think your brain has seized up from information overload.

1.Set aside at least five minutes for quiet "clearing" time.If you're at school,see if you can put your head down somewhere or find an empty room or quiet space.If necessary,set a watch (or phone) alarm or ask a friend to tap you on the shoulder at a designated time.

2.Think of a time or place that puts you into a complete state of peace.This place will vary from person to person.Have you ever sat on the beach watching the waves come in and realized you've "zoned out" fora while?This is the sort of experience you're looking for.Other experiences that make us zone out could be: Sitting in the dark and staring at Christmas tree lights—remember how peaceful that feels?

3.Cover your eyes and go to your "place".If you are at school preparing for a test before class,you may simply rest your elbows on the desk and put your hands over your eyes.For some people,it may not be a good idea to put your head down.(You might fall asleep!)

Don't let any thoughts creep into your head.As soon as you start to think about a test problem,clear away the thought and concentrate on your peaceful place.

4.Snap out of it!Remember,this is not nap time.The point here is to refresh your brain.After five or ten minutes of clearing time,take a brisk walk or take a drink of water to re-energize your mind and body.Stay relaxed and resist the urge to think about the things that are stressing you out or clogging your brain.Don't let your brain go back to freeze-out.

Now go on with your test or study session refreshed and ready!

I stopped at my bank last week to deposit a check. I could have used the ATM, but I am so glad that I didn't because if I had, I probably would not have met Harold.

There were 3 or 4 people ahead of me in the line-up, so I amused myself by watching TV, just waiting my turn. Moments passed. Then, directly in front of me, a tiny elder woman, who was now first in line, started toward one of the counters. But the customer before her didn't finish, so she had to step back. Her backward movement caused my attention to be drawn to the customer directly ahead of us. As he was facing the counter, I could see only his white hair and the bright red team jacket. I heard him say to the teller in a deep, strong voice..."Have a Great Day!" and the teller replied, "You too, Harold-see you next week!"

The impatient woman again made her move, heading for the counter. As she passed him, Harold looked up, directly at me, saying, "You are a handsome man, sir." I was so surprised by his statement and struck by the genuine warmth and generosity that filled it that I blurted out "Thank you, sir." instantly reaching out to shake his hand, out even realizing that he was walking with a walking stick. He switched it to his left hand and took my hand in his warm and firm grip. "I really care about you!" He spoke again. Then he reached out to the next person in line and said, "I really care about you, too!"

I was so overcome by his innocent and sincere gift! He was like a 4-year-old, who walked up to everyone, inviting them to play with him. I wondered to myself afterwards. How was he attained this state of grace? Imagine the warm feeling he leaves behind his as he sails through this world, touching people for just a moment. He dropped a stone into the peaceful ocean of my reality that is still rippling outward as you hear and hopefully, some of what Harold so unselfishly pass on to me, that in attempt to pass on to you—I really care about you!

1.What made the author notice Harold?

A. The woman's impatience.

B. Harold's deep and strong voice.

C. The woman's backward movement.

D. Harold's white hair and bright red team jacket.

2.Why did Harold say "I really care about you!" to the author?

A. To express appreciation for his help.

B. To pass on his warmth and generosity.

C. To praise him for his being handsome.

D. To greet his old friend in a special way.

3.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Harold gave a gift to the author.

B. Harold liked to play with others.

C. Harold's words attracted people.

Reporter: Why did you start this new website for Alcott Middle School?

Sarah: Three months ago, my mom was complaining about how she never hears about the days our school ends early until after the fact. She works late and sometimes she has to ask our neighbor at the last minute to pick me up after school. It happened several times, and she was frustrated that there wasn’t better notification (通知) from the school.

Reporter: Didn’t your school already have a website with that information?

Sarah: We had a website. But there wasn’t much information on it, and nobody was in charge of keeping it up to date (包含最新信息的). I asked my teacher if our class could update the school calendar. That seemed pretty easy.

Reporter: Was it?

Sarah: Yeah, and it was kind of fun. So then we asked the principal (校長) if we could redo the whole site. He said okay, so we went to work. We discovered websites that taught us how to make our site look better and added more hot links that people could click to get more information about a subject. We posted photos from basketball games. Our class even started a blog about what’s going on at school. Then we persuaded the teachers to create their own pages.

Reporter: So what’s next?

Sarah: A few friends and I started a small Web design business. We’re asking other schools if they’ll employ (雇用) us to set up a site like the one we created.

Reporter: Wow! That’s pretty enterprising (有事業(yè)心的) for a 13-year-old.

Sarah: I guess so. But it doesn’t seem like work when you’re doing something you enjoy.

1.How did Sarah’s mom feel about her school three months ago?

A. Hopeful. B. Thankful.

C. Dissatisfied. D. Uninterested.

2.The underlined part “in charge of” is closest in meaning to _____.

A. in keeping with B. in touch with

C. in need of D. in control of

3.Sarah set up the new school website _____.

A. with the help of her teachers

B. by researching on other websites

C. in order to please her principal

D. to make her school more famous

科目：高中英語 來源：四川省瀘州市2017屆高三四診（臨考沖刺模擬）英語試卷（有答案） 題型：閱讀理解

A bite from a tsetse fly is an extremely unpleasant experience.To make matters worse,several species of tsetse fly can transmit diseases.One of the most dangerous is a parasite（寄生蟲）that causes "sleeping sickness".

After the initial bite,sleeping sickness symptoms often start with a fever,headaches and aching muscles.As the illness goes on,those infected become increasingly tired,which is where it gets its name.

It is worth noting that sleeping sickness is no longer as deadly as it once was.In the early 20th Century several hundred thousand people were infected each year.By the 1960s the disease was considered "under control" and had reached very low numbers,making its spread more difficult.But in the 1970s there was another major infection,which took 20 years to control.Since then,better screening programs and earlier treatments have reduced the number of cases dramatically.In 20is this figure dropped to fewer than 3,000.The World Health Organization (WHO) hopes the disease will be completely removed by 2020.More problematically,a series of new studies have shown that the parasite is more complicated than previously believed.

Sleeping sickness has always been considered—and analyzed—as a blood disease,because the parasites can readily be discovered in the blood of its victims.However,in a recent study found that the parasite can stay in the skin and fat,as well as in the blood.There may even be a higher density（密度）of the parasite in the skin than in the blood. That means a person can have no symptoms but still both harbor the disease and spread it.The finding could explain the mysterious 1970s infection,and why the disease can spring up in areas that had previously been cleared.

1.What's the danger of a tsetse fly bite?

A. It makes people sleepy. B. It causes skin disease.

C. It brings about deaths. D. It transmits deadly parasites.

2.What can we infer about sleeping sickness from Paragraph 3?

A. It's still a threat to human health. B. It's not that dangerous at present.

C. It's incurable in the early 20th century. D. It's completely under control in the 1960s.

3.What does the underlined "harbor" most probably mean?

A. carry B. resist C. exchange D. hide

4.What does the latest research indicate according to the passage?

A. Sleeping sickness is a blood disease. B. Skin is more suitable for the parasite to grow.

C. Sleeping sickness can be spread with no signs. D. Parasites in the skin caused the 1970s infection.
