Poorest countries facing both obesity and malnutrition
A third of the poorest countries in the world are dealing with high levels of obesity as well as under-nourishment, which leaves people too thin, according to a report in The Lancet. It says the problem is caused by global __31__ to ultra - processed foods, and people exercising less. The authors are calling for changes to the “modern food system” which they believe is the __32__ of it.
Countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia are most affected.
The report __33__ that nearly 2.3 billion children and adults on the planet are overweight, and more than 150 million children have undersized growth. And many low and middle-income countries are facing these two __34__ at the same time -- known as the ‘double burden of malnutrition’. This means that 20% of people are overweight, 30% of children under four are not growing __35__, and 20% of women are classified as thin.
Failing food systems
The report authors say action should be taken by governments, the United Nations and academics to __36__ the problem, and it points the finger at changing diets.
The way people eat, drink and move is changing. Increasing numbers of supermarkets, easy availability of less __37__ food, as well as a decrease in __38__ activity, are leading to more people becoming overweight.
And these changes are affecting low and middle-income countries, as well as high-income ones.
Although undersized growth of children in many countries is becoming less frequent, eating ultra-processed foods early in life is __39__ with poor growth. “We are facing a new nutrition reality,” says lead author Dr Francesco Branca, director of the department of nutrition for health and development at the World Health Organization. “We can no longer __40__ countries as low-income and undernourished, or high-income and only concerned with obesity.
II. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Many of the most memorable advertisement campaigns around tend to be funny. Advertisers use this __34__ to attract customers to their product. Audiences like to be __35__. People will pay more attention to a humorous commercial than a factual or serious one, opening themselves up to be __36__.
The best products to sell using humor tend to be those that consumers have to think the least about. Products that are relatively inexpensive, and often __37__, can be represented without providing a lot of facts, and that’s where there’s room for __38__. Candy, food, alcohol, __39__ and toys/entertainment related products have proven to benefit the most from humor in their campaigns.
Another point to consider when using humor in advertising is that different things are __40__ to different people. A commercial that may leave one person laughing may leave a __41__ taste in another’s mouth. The __42__ market must always be considered. What’s funny in a client presentation may not be funny on an airplane, at a country club or in a hospital.
Humor in advertising tends to improve __43__, but does not improve product recall, message credibility, or buying intentions. __44__, consumers may be familiar with and have good feelings towards the product, but their purchasing decisions will probably not be__45__. One of the major keys to a successful humorous campaign is __46__, once a commercial starts to wear out there’s no saving it without some variation on the concept. Humorous campaigns are often expensive because they have to be constantly __47__. Advertisers must remember that while making the customer laugh, they have to keep things interesting, because old jokes __48__ along with their products.

Section B
A
The sun was shining quite brightly as Ms Grant left her house, and she saw no need to take an umbrella with her. She got on the bus to take her into the town and before long it came on to rain. It had not stopped raining when the bus arrived at the marketplace half an hour later. Ms Grant stood up and absentmindedly picked up the umbrella that was hanging on the seat in front of her. A cold voice said loudly: “That is mine, Madam!”
Suddenly remembering that she had come out without her umbrella, Ms Grant went red with embarrassment and apologized, trying at the same time to pay no attention to the unpleasant look the owner of the umbrella was giving her.
When she got off the bus, Ms Grant made straight for a shop where she could buy an umbrella.And it wasn’t long before she found a very pretty one. It was so pretty that she decided to buy another as a present for her daughter. She did the rest of her shopping and had lunch in a cafe.
In the afternoon she got on the homeward bus with the two umbrellas under her arm, and sat down. Then she saw that, by a curious coincidence , she was sitting next to the woman who had made her feel so uncomfortable that morning.
This woman now looked at her, then at the umbrellas, and said, “You’ve had quite a good day, I see!”

B
Why is setting goals important? Because goals can help you do, and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting lives happen to you, goals allow yourself to make your life happen.
Successful and happy people have a vision of how their life should be and they set lots of goals (both short-term and long-range) to help them reach their vision. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind (her goal) which is laid out for her on a map. She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns. The other driver has no goal or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas and oil. Which driver do you want to be?
Winners in life set goals and follow through on them. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set, and they aren’t difficult to reach. It’s up to you to find out what your goals, ideals and visions really are. You are the one who must decide what to pursue and in what direction to aim your life.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget.
Also when you write your goals in a particular fashion you are able to stimulate yourself to be continuously alert to situations that will further your goals.
4. The author gave the example of two drivers to show ________.
A. the foolishness of the first driver
B. the importance of having a map and right direction
C. the foolishness of the second driver
D. the importance of setting goals
5. According to this text, the most important thing in realizing one’s ideal is to ________.
A. try to be realistic about one’s ability
B. have a clear understanding of what he or she wants in life
C. let others understand him or her first, then work together with them
D. let others help him or her to make his or her dream come true
6. If people want to reach their goals, they should ________.
A. write down their goals
B. sign a contract with other people
C. face the difficulties in front of them
D. discuss with others and ask for their help
7. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Success is possible only when a person has clearly set his or her goal.
B. Winners never stop their efforts for success.
C. Failure always accompanies the people who gave up easily.
D. Whenever you set goals, you will succeed.
C
As much as we may want to protect children from all the terrible, horrible and very bad things in life, too often we don’t get a choice. These four new kids’ books serve as guides for a variety of difficulties and as important reminders that we have a choice in how we react to such trials. These stories introduce young readers to relatable characters who are processing and recovering from hardships and sorrows. Each book, in its own way, offers a guide for young readers who are facing their own struggles. Together, they teach a lesson for us all in resilience (还原能力)and hope.

What Can We Do for Our Community?
Hello, everyone. It’s nice to speak about what we can do for our community, and I think each of us can do something.
The first thing we can do is to make our community a more harmonious one. Every one of us should show respect and kindness to others, always ready to give a helping hand. We can also form a good habit of putting the rubbish in the trashcan. The second thing we can do is to protect the facilities in our community. When we woke out, we should never forget to use the gym equipment correctly and gently. We should also cherish every tree and every blade of grass in the community while taking a walk.
If everyone does one thing for our community, I believe we will turn it into a better place to live in.
Thank you for listening!
