The findings come 1 a study of nearly 1,000 US people that looked at diet, calorie intake and body mass index (BMI) - a measure of obesity.2 is found that those who ate chocolate a few times a week were, on 3, slimmer than those 4 ate it occasionally. Even though chocolate is loaded with calories, it contains ingredients(材料)that may favour weight loss 5 than fat synthesis, scientists believe.6 boosting calorie intake, regular chocolate consumption was related to lower BMI in the study, 7 is published in Archives of Internal Medicine. The link remained even when other factors, like how 8 exercise individuals did, were taken into 9.And it appears it is how often you eat chocolate that is important, rather than how much of it you eat. The 10 found no link with quantity consumed.
11 to the researchers, there is only one chance in a hundred that their findings could be explained by chance alone. Lead author Dr Beatrice Golomb, from the University of California at San Diego, said: "Our findings appear to add to a body of information suggesting that the composition of calories, not just the number of them, matters for determining their ultimate impact on weight."This is not the first time scientists 12 that chocolate may be healthy for us. Other studies have claimed chocolate may be good for the heart. Consumption of certain types of chocolate has been linked to some favourable changes in blood pressure, insulin(胰島素)sensitivity and cholesterol(膽固醇)level. And chocolate, 13 dark chocolate, does contain antioxidants(抗氧化劑)which can help to mop up harmful free radicals - unstable chemicals that can damage our cells.
Dr Golomb and her team believe that antioxidant compounds, called catechins(兒茶素), can improve lean muscle mass and reduce weight 14 studies in rodents would suggest this might be so. Mice 15 for 15 days with epicatechin (present in dark chocolate) had improved exercise performance and observable changes to their muscle composition.They say clinical trials are now needed in humans to see 16 this is the case.
But before you reach 17 a chocolate bar, there are still lots of unanswered questions. And in the absence of conclusive evidence, experts advise caution.While there's no harm in allowing yourself a treat like 18 now and again, eating too much might be harmful because it often 19 a lot of sugar and fat too.And if you are looking to change your diet, you are 20 to benefit most from eating more fresh fruits and vegetables.

科目:高中英語 來源:陜西省模擬題 題型:閱讀理解

閱讀理解。
     根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從下框A~F選項中選出能概括每段主題的最佳選項。選項中有一項為
多余項。
A. How to take notes and rewrite in one`s own words
B. Advantages of taking notes
C. Taking some useful notes
D. Taking notes is a help to create new ideas in the future
E. Need to change information from an encyclopedia into one`s own
F. Two ways of writing a note and their advantage
1. 
     In school and out, many people need to put the information they find in an encyclopedia into words
of their own. The student who is writing a composition, the businessman who is writing a report, and
the housewife who is preparing a talk for a woman`s club often need the kind of information they find
in an encyclopedia. But no one wants what he writes to read as it were copied from an encyclopedia.
What you write should read as if it came from you.
2.

      Even if you have every intention of rewriting the material in your own words, it is unwise to copy
information from an encyclopedia word for word. Instead, write brief notes to remind yourself of the
facts you wish to express. Later with the encyclopedia closed, you can expand those notes into
sentences and paragraph of your own.
3.

     The advantage of note-taking over copying is that it forces you to think for yourself at least
twice-first when you are reading and second when you are using your notes. It is easy to copy a
paragraph without being sure of what it means. But to make a note expressing the meaning of a
paragraph in your own words requires you to prove to yourself that you have understood that
paragraph. Note-taking also helps you to remember what you have read. It is much easier to
remember what you have said in a note that someone else has said in a book. Even if author`s
vocabulary is easily understood, it isn`t the vocabulary you naturally think of. Putting his ideas into
your vocabulary makes those ideas yours, and yours are the ideas you best remember.
4.
     Some people write notes in complete sentences. Others write notes that are phrases of topics.
For example, a sentence note on the paragraph above might be “Notes help you remember.”A topical
note for the same paragraph might be “Notes as memory helps”. Both of these are four-word notes,
and therefore either has an advantage to save time at the moment of note-taking
5.
     Remember that the purpose of taking notes is always for some future use, often for some future
writing that you will do. Notes that make you think as you write are better than notes that merely help
you remember information. The thinking writer is the one who creates something new, something that
no one can point to and say, “Oh, I have seen that same paragraph in an encyclopedia.”
