二、阅读理解。
A
Dear Doctor,
I’ve read that you should eat nothing but fruit or fresh juice for breakfast. I’m usually not hungry in the morning, so I don’t have anything but an orange about an hour after I wake up. Then I have something to eat 3-4 hours later. Is it possible to lose all the weight I want this way
Please write soon. Thank you.
Yours
Alice
Dear Alice,
The most important thing about breakfast is to put SOMETHING in your body in one hour after you wake up. All diets tell you to eat different things, but they will only work with caloric restriction (限制热量). A breakfast will give your body enough nutrients (营养) for longer time. If you don’t like to eat a lot in the morning, eat some fruit and you get some fiber(纤维性食物), too. The key to lose weight is watching calories(卡路里) all day more than what you eat for breakfast.
I hope I can help you.
Yours
Jim
