Foods to Eat to Burn More Calories
WATERMELON
Watermelon is brimming with B vitamins, which boost your energy levels and curb your need
to munch on an extra snack. A cup of diced watermelon contains 46 calories and virtually no fat.
Watermelon is a rich source of potassium, dietary fiber, protein, vitamin A, magnesium, vitamin C,
and iron.
Watermelon is one of powerful foods to eat to burn more calories. Watermelon is also high in
lycopene, the antioxidant that lower your risk of macular degeneration, heart disease, and cancer.
With 90 percent water, watermelon is filling you up but are not filling you out. Enjoy fresh
watermelon juice, smoothie, or use it any summer fruit salad you like.
GRAPEFRUITGrapefruits speed up your metabolism and help bum a lot of calories. This fruit will help you
feel full faster and longer. According to the U. S. Department of Agriculture National Nutrient
Database, one half of a grapefruit contains around 53 calories. Moreover, grapefruit is rich in fiber
that may help stabilize your blood glucose levels. You can add grapefruit to your fruit salad,
smoothies or drink a grapefruit juice.
CELERY
The secret of celery is very simple: it contains less calories and helps burn more than you eat.
Celery mostly consists of water and that's why it is good as a part of a balanced diet. However, this
food is not suitable for celery diet only as your body won't get the necessary minerals and nutrients.
So the best decision will be to combine it with some other foods.
WHOLE GRAINS
Studies show that whole grains are healthier than refined grains and that they lower the risk of
getting a chronic disease. This type of grains is also a good part of a diet as it takes more time to
digest and you won't get hungry for a longer period of time. Whole grains are rich in various
vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates but low in fat.
GREEN TEA
Rich in antioxidants, green tea boosts your metabolism and helps lose weight, which is just
fantastic, ladies, isn't it? Simply enjoy a cup of hot fragrant green tea and do a great favor to your
body.
21. To balance blood glucose levels, you'd better take in regularly.
A. green tea B. whole grains C. watermelon D. grapefruit
22. From the passage we can know that .
A. grapefruit contains more calories than watermelon.
B. whole grains are healthier because they contain more water and various minerals.
C. both grapefruit and green tea can help speed up metabolism for those who are eager to lose
weight
D. Having celery diet before a cup of green tea can help get enough nutrients to lose weight.
23. Which column can we read this passage in the newspaper?
A. Book Review B. Health C. Entertainment D. Learning Kit
BI've been taking time this week to smell the roses. Literally, I bend over in my neighbors' front
yard, check that nobody is watching, and then bury my head in the flowers. I've also been walking
into bakeries and walking around without buying anything. After having surgery on my broken nose
18 months ago, I haven't been able to smell or taste things. This week, however, my nose is back in
business.
I've been overwhelmed by smells, and it's given me a new way of thinking. Scent is just one of
the little bits and pieces that make life enjoyable, but which we often ignore. I remember once, when
my son was five months old, I was carrying him down the street. Wind swept through and almost
tipped us over. He threw his little head back and giggled(傻笑). He'd never felt the wind on his face.
When is the last time I laughed at the weather?
The first time I ate bacon, I rushed home to my parents, determined that we ate this
deliciousness at every meal. My father smiled and agreed.
Do you recall when you learned that the voice actors of Mickey and Minnie Mouse were
married in real life? Do you enjoy sleeping in new clean bedsheets? Is there someone on the radio
whose voice is as smooth as velvet(天鹅绒)?
We don't write postcards about the small things. We don't frame them in photographs. They
aren't that great or grand, but without them, life is altogether too loud. These quiet experiences give
us a chance to enjoy the simple fact of being alive. As my sense of smell returns to me, it's like I'm
smelling things for the first time. They're full of memories and magic. Food tastes better, and the air
is indeed sweet. I know what the poets mean now. It almost makes my broken nose worthwhile.
Now, I am waiting for this bandage to come off. There's an itch(痒)I can't reach!
24. The writer in the passage mainly tries to .
A. discuss how to enjoy leisure time B. show that she loves doing secret things
C. give examples of how she kills time D. persuade readers to enjoy small things in life
25. According to the writer, "a new way of thinking" in the second paragraph means .
A. the ability to discover the joy of small things
B. the habit of overcoming ignorance
C. the ability to fully use our limited attention
D. the habit of making personal reflections
26. The writer recalls that .A. her father enjoyed sleeping in new clean bedsheets.
B. her son was frightened when feeling the wind on his face.
C. she couldn't resist temptation when eating bacon for the first time.
D. she always ignored the great things in life.
27. One small thing mentioned in the last paragraph is .
A. a joyful memory B. a quiet experience
C. the sense of smell D. the simple fact of being alive
C
Antarctica is known for being a vast land of ice and snow, a place too cold for most life.
Despite this, the continent is slowly starting to turn warm. According to the Guardian, the Antarctic
has registered a new high temperature for the first time on record, prompting fears of climate
instability in the world's iciest place.
On Feb 9, Brazilian researchers at Seymour Island reported a temperature of 20.75℃ on the icy
continent of Antarctica. It was almost a full degree higher than the previous record of 19.8℃, taken
on Signy Island in January 1982.
This record-breaking reading was taken at a monitoring station in the northern part of
Antarctica According to Brazilian soil scientist Carlos Schaefer, the temperature was documented
during a 20-year-long research project. The focus of this project is to study the effect that climate
change has on the permafrost(永久冻土)within the region. Permafrost is soil that stays frozen for at
least two years. Although this is a first record high for Antarctica, Schaefer stressed that "We can't
use this to anticipate climatic changes in the future. It's simply a signal that something different is
happening in that area."
But in fact, the last high temperature reading，in the 19℃ range. These higher temperatures can
cause ice and glaciers in Antarctic regions to melt. The Antarctic peninsula(半岛)-the long finger of
land that stretches towards Argentina-is most dramatically affected Scientists saw glaciers that have
retreated by more than 100 meters in Discovery Bay where the snow melted in little more than a
week, leaving dark exposed rock. This melted ice leads to a rise in sea levels that can threaten the
safety of coastal areas. It's believed to be behind an alarming decline of more than 50, percent in
chinstrap penguin(帽带企鹅)colonies, which are dependent on sea ice.
Like American writer Ernest Hemingway once said, "The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for." We should do everything we can to help save our planet. Otherwise, it may become too
hot for us to fix.

A. Seymour Island is the warmest region in the Antarctic.
B. Antarctica hit a record high temperature of 20.75℃.
C. The average temperature of Antarctica ranges from 19.8℃ to 20.75℃.
D. Antarctica's new record temperature6 is a full degree higher than the previous decade.
29. What's the main purpose of the 20-year-long research project?
A. To predict possible climatic change in the future.
B. To monitor Antarctica's contributions to world climate change.
C. To explain why the permafrost may cause glaciers to melt.
D. To examine how the permafrost is influenced by climate change.
30. What does the underlined word "retreated" probably mean?
A. moved backward. B. increased in size.
C. covered a certain area. D. stretched in an opposite direction.
31. According to the text, the melted glacier may lead to .
A. the pollution of ocean water B. the release of various viruses
C. threats to penguin habitats D. disappearances of coastal cities

In an era when fashion trends can change in a nanosecond(纳秒), people want to keep pace.
They'll wear a look a few times and then move on to the next one. In reality, most people can't really
afford this.
To meet this demand, online clothing rental services are growing in popularity. Shoppers ran
pay money online to rent the clothes they need, says the Fashion United website. The first company
to put this idea into practice is Rent the Runway. The United States -based company has lit a $1
billion valuation. CEO Jennifer Hyman credits its success to the concepts of the sharing economy.
She believes that the clothing rental business and the idea of dynamic ownership is a trend in the
young generation. "The millennium generation(千禧一代), the consumer, is so ready to adopt this
behavior." Hyman told CNBC.
She also points out that working women make up one of the biggest consumer groups subscribing to their services. They want more clothes but they have limited space and ability to
purchase new fashion. "Rent the Runway can be a solution for them," Hyman told CNBC, "where
they can dress for the job they want and save money and time."
Although the clothing rental business has many advantages, people still have some concerns.
Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline wrote in Elle that "Renting the clothes is not as sustainable(可
持续的)as it seems.
Take shipping, for example, which has to go two ways if an item is rented-receiving and
returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest footprint of our collective
fashion habit after manufacturing. Then there's the burden of washing, which has to happen to every
item when it’s returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most rental services, this
usually means dry-cleaning, a high-impact and polluting process. "They can produce hazardous(有
害 的 )waste and air pollution if not handled correctly, and they're often paired with stain( 污
渍)removers that are' more toxic than the solvents(溶剂)themselves," she told the Fashion Platforms
website.
32. What is the article 'mainly about?
A. The fast changes of fashion trends.
B. The development of the sharing economy.
C. What contributes to the popularity of online clothing rental services.
D. The advantages' and disadvantages of online clothing rental services.
33. What is behind the success of Rent the Runway according to Hyman?
A. Different fashion tastes. B. Growth of delivery services.
C. The trend of the sharing economy. D. The financial pressures facing consumers.
34. What is the main problem of online clothing subscription services，according to the text?
A. Consumers tend to rent more than they need.
B. They could lead to other unsustainable fashion habits.
C. The shipping and washing involved are not environmentally friendly.
D. People can catch infectious diseases by renting clothes from sick people.
35. According to the passage, the author's attitude towards the rental service is probably .
A. supportive B. indifferent C. objective D. passive
