There is some research that links eating a good breakfast with a reduction in the risk of obesity(肥胖）and heart disease. While it is tempting to miss breakfast when yours on a diet, it is not clear whether this helps you to lose weight or not . Last week a research team from Imperial College London presented its findings. The researchers scanned the brains of 21 healthy people as they showed them a varety of foods including chocolate, pizza and salad. They pared how attractive the foods were to the participants, as well as how much they ate for lunch for the following two days after the scan, one on which breakfast was missed and one on which they ate a large breakfast. The researchers found that missing breakst increased the appeal of high-calorie items and that the participants ate about 250 calories more at lunch. The researchers said this shows that breakfast takes the edge off our appetite so we dont want high-calorie. So , how should we start our days? Chocolate cakes are remended by researchers from Tel Aviv University, who found that a 600-calorie breakfast， including a sweet treat, controlled cravings(渴望）for sweet things for the rest of the day and kick-started the bodys metabolism (新陈代谢）. Their study looked at 193 fat people over 32 weeks and found those who ate sweet things at breakfast lost an average of 401b (18.2kg)more than those who didnt . However, it is always hard to prove cause and effect in dieting studies. People who eat breakfast often turn to take more exercise and drink less alcohol, so there may be other reasons for their weight loss. An authoritative study found that children and adults who regularly ate breakfast cereals were less likely to be overweight than those who did not eat them. So, although eating breakfast is linked with being slimmer, this may simply be an association. There is, however, another evidence that suggests children benefit from eating breakfast because it helps them to concentrate .28.What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. We should follow a kings recipe when preparing our breakfast . B. We should cut out breakfast first when on a diet. C. A good breakfast can reduce the risk of some diseases. D. Eating less breakfast helps you lose weight.29. The research of Imperial College London shows that . A. people who eat sweet things for breakfast tend to lose weight B. fat people tend to eat a large breakfast C. chocolate, pizza and salad are high-calorie foods. D. breakfast can make us feel less hungry later30. Which of the following is NOT one of the benefits of children eating breakfast? A. They are more likely to be slim. B. They can eat more sweet things at breakfast. C. It can help them focus on doing something. D. It can help them develop healthy eating habits .31.

They eventually get you where you want to go, but along the way you are unfortable. 36 The fokkowing tips dont emphasize how much weight to lift or what kinds of food to eat. Instead, they improve how you exercise and diet, and will put you on the fast track to the body you want.Pay attention to your rest. Most people know how many sets they plan to do in a period of physical exercise, but not many know how much time they will spend resting between sets. This is a mistake. 37 To improve your exercise, you need to keep track of how much rest you take between sets, and know whether or not it is the right amount of rest for you to reach your goals.Pick exercises that you feel right. 38 You also need to be cautious about any exercise that causes you any kind of unnatural joint pain. If you are feeling a move more in your joints and connective tissues than your muscles, find a different way to take exercise. Dont stick with an exercise just because you heard it was a great one. 39 Place a table in your house where you will have your meals or snacks without the television, newspaper, puter or smartphone around to distract(使分心）you, and you will automatically bee more mindful of what you are putting in your mouth-and therefore more likely to make better food choices or eat less.Get a juicing machine. Start juicing. Just do it. Youll be amazed at how many delicious and nutritional cocktails you cna make. Try kale, apples and ginger to e alive, or carrots and ginger for great skin. Or make some fresh pineapple juice to wele people into your home with happiness.Take pictures of yourself When I want to get thinner, I take a picture of myself in a bikini (比基尼泳装）and post it in visible places. 40 Its an objective look at where you are, and a constant motivator to eat healthily and stick with your exercise. A. Create your specific plan. B. Eat in a distraction-free area. C. But what if you could take a first-class flight? D. Taking a one-or two-minute rest does not help. E. Be very careful when performing exercises that stress your lower back. F. Places such as the bathroom, fridge and puter monitor are all great choices. G. With all the gadgets(小器具） in the gym these days, there is no excuse not to track your rest intervals.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） My husband just bought the latest video game for our son, but our little prince wasns happy with that;he wanted 41 !
