Some foods really do lead to a change in our moods（心情）.Carbohydrate（碳水化合物）for calmThis is how some people medicate themselves with foodby reaching for cookies or pasta（意大利面食）whenever theyre upset. Unfortunately，it doesnt always work. You must eat a meal consisting of 100 carbohydrate，on an empty stomach，to obtain the serotonin（血清素）increase so that you have a good mood.To get the wished-for effect，you must not eat anything for four hours and then eat at least 30 grams of straight carbohydrate. Dry cereal（谷类食品），a piece of bread with jam，or a potato should do the trick.Protein（蛋白质）for powerOf course，sometimes we dont need to be calm and sleepy. Sometimes we need a great deal of mental concentration，so this is when its important to mix protein and carbohydrate. The protein will prevent the tryptophan（色氨酸）from flooding your brain，and the rise in serotonin wont occur.Why dessert makes us happyFat and sugar cause the brain to let go endorphins（内啡肽），which send pleasure signals throughout the body. This would be fine，except humans are not particularly good at stopping at one cookie or cake.You can also satisfy your sweet tooth by choosing fruit for dessert.Timing your meals for energyBlood sugar drops after four hours of going without food，causing a decrease in energy. Eating usually fixes this within 20 to 30 minutes，but dont suppose that eating more will cause a faster increase in energy.When you eat has as much of an effect on your mood as what you eat. If you regularly go for a long period of time between meals，rethink your schedule and plan ahead.24The underlined phrase in the third paragraph means _.Abe extremely smartBintend to cheat someoneCbring about the desired result Ddo something to amuse people25The function of protein is _.Ato help you keep calm and sleepyBto make you feel energeticCto lead you to slownessDto increase serotonin in your brain26We can infer from the last two parts that _.Afat and sugar can greatly help people feel happyBwe humans tend to eat lots of cookies and cakesCthe more we eat，the faster we will gain energyDwhat we eat is more important than when we eat27The main idea of the passage is _.Aeating for a better mood Beating to make you calmCeating for more proteinDeating to make us strongCToday well talk about readingWhen we read a text，our eyes move across a page in short，quick movementsWe recognize words usually when our eyes still fixate(停留，凝视)Each time they fixate，we see a group of wordsThis is known as the recognition span or the visual span(视幅)The length of time for which the eyes stop varies from person to personIt also varies within any person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the textIn addition，it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.Unfortunately，in the past，many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the pageAs a result of this misleading emphasis(强调)on the purely visual aspects of reading，many exercises have been designed to train the eyes to see more words at one fixationFor example，in some exercises，words are flashed on to a screen for a tenth of a secondOne of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point，taking in the words on either sideSuch word patterns are often formed in the shape of pyramids(金字塔)，so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive（连续的）fixationAll these exercises are very clever，but it s one thing to improve a persons ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently.Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between wordsConsequently，for these reasons，many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training，especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated(孤立的)words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text 28The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following factors except _.A1ighting and tirednessBthe length of a group of wordsCones purpose in reading Dones familiarity with the text29What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?AThe ability to see words is not needed for an efficient readingBThe reading exercises mentioned are useless for reading.CThe reading exercises mentioned cant help improve reading.DThe reading exercises mentioned have done a great job so far.30Which of the following is NOT true? AThe visual span is a word or a group of words we see each timeBMany experts began to question the efficiency of eye trainingCThe emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleadingDThe eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text31The tune of the author in writing this text is _Acritical Bneutral Csupportive DoptimisticDSome people act sick to get out of work. Others act sick to get work. For medical actors like Ted Bell, the stage is an examination room with a future doctor, nurse or other health care professional.Mr. Bell is playing a 55-year-old patient with stomach pains that began three months ago. He is also playing a teacher. But in a way he really does teach. He helps students like Emily Tyrrell at the University of Maryland School of Nursing learn to work with patients.In real life, Mr. Bell is a retired civil engineer. He now works as what is known as a “standardized (标准化的)patient”. He stays busy working at local medical schools. About 700 standardized patients work in the area. Pay starts at 17 dollars an hour. It can go as high as 35 dollars an hour depending on the project.Being a standardized patient does not require medical knowledge. The schools provide the training. Nor does it require acting experience. In fact, standardized patient Tom Wyatt is a professional actor yet he does not even think of his work with the students as acting.Standardized patients spend hours training for each of their “performances”. They have to remember the medical history of the person they are playing and be able to answer questions as if they were really sick. Tom Wyatt says remembering all the patients he has to play and their conditions can be difficult. After each session (学期)the standardized patients talk to the students to discuss their performance, that is, the performance of the students.Kurt Haspert is studying to bee a nurse practitioner (护理师). He said,“It is always good to do the standardized patients because it keeps you thinking about how your thought process has to go, and how you can narrow down your differential diagnosis while youre asking questions.”The actors enjoy it too. Retired engineer Ted Bell says the students find the experience very helpful, and that makes him feel good. 32. What is Mr. Bell doing at present?A. Playing ball sports. B. Studying medicine.C. Working as a future doctor. D. Acting as a patient.33. Before he retired, Mr. Bell was a _.A. civil engineerB. part-time teacher.C. professional doctorD. standardized patient34. From the passage we can infer that in order to bee a standardized patient,_.A. one must receive some training. B. medical knowledge must be needed.C. acting experience must be needed. D. one must have been a professional actor.35. From the last paragraph we know that _.A. the actors arent satisfied with their work.B. the students benefits a lot by working with the “actors”C. Ted Bell thinks his job helpless.D. the students and the “actors” feel sorry for each other. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据下列短文内容，从文章后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Three Apples” changed the world. The first one seduced (引诱)Eve.
