Do you love holidays but hate the increase in weight that follows You are not alone.
Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods.Many people,however,are worried about the weight that comes along with these delicious foods.
With proper planning,though,it is possible to control your weight.The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much.You don't have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.The following suggestions may be of some help to you.
Don't miss meals.Before you leave home for a feast (宴会),have a small,low fat snack.This may help to keep you from getting too excited before delicious foods.
Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables.
A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full.
Use a small plate;a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough.
Better not have high fat foods.Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.

A British friend told me he couldn't understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds (葵花子) as a snack so much.“I've met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth;I believe that's from cracking the seeds,” he said.
I had never noticed the habit,but once he mentioned it,I suddenly became more aware.I realized that whenever I'm watching TV or typing a report,I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds.My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds,and,to him,it seems unnecessary to work so hard just to get one small seed.
When we were young,the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year.Then,we all lived close to one another,usually in a small city,and sometimes even neighbors would go door to door on Chinese New Year's Eve to check out what every household was making.
I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking.In the living room,a large table would already be laid out,complete with a fancy tablecloth,ready made dumpling fillings,and dishes full of candy,fruits and sunflower seeds.
Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later,while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast.I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.
I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice in food or eating habits,no matter how strange they may seem.
It's not only in China.When I went abroad,I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food.In Denmark,they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner,no matter how much it ruins their breath.They think it's a delicacy,and it's connected with their culture.I think it's a wonderful tradition.
4.What lesson can we learn from the passage
A.One kind of food doesn't necessarily suit everyone.
B.Eating habits come from a certain culture.
C.It is good to form healthy eating habits.
D.Changing your eating habits will change your life.
5.What did the writer become aware of
A.She had ever typed a report about seeds.
B.She ate various snacks while watching TV.
C.She has a habit of cracking sunflower seeds.
D.She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds.
6.What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year
A.The traditions of celebrating it disappear.
B.Children can eat delicious food on that day.
C.The families would get together for it.
D.Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.
7.The writer's attitude to Denmark's way of eating bread is .
A.acceptable B.critical
C.neutral D.doubtful
C
How does it happen that some people never have to see the doctor while some are wasting much money in hospital?The answer lies in their proper,healthy diet.A balanced diet actually means eating all kinds of foods to provide the body with all the nutrients (营养物) it needs for its daily work.It means eating the right type of foods and eating a right amount of food for each meal.
Each food group contains different kinds of nutrients,and our body surely needs all of these,but in different amounts,and it differs from person to person.When it comes to going on a healthy diet,one size is not suitable for all.Everyone leads a different lifestyle,and has different jobs and fitness levels.
A balanced diet matters for everyone.If the body gets all the required nutrients,it'll improve the immune(免疫) system,which prevents all kinds of diseases.A balanced diet would also be good for the state of mind and then help you remember something better.What's more,if the body is supplied with all the necessary nutrients,the skin and hair also become healthier.A balanced diet also prevents our body from aging.As a result,you'll have a more youthful look.
However,for a healthy body,a balanced diet is not enough;it has to be combined with the proper amount of sleep and exercise.These three things,when included in your daily routine,will make sure that you not only have a healthy body but also a healthy mind.So,go ahead and adopt a healthier lifestyle!
8.What does the underlined word “differs” in Paragraph 2 mean
A.Comes. B.Grows.
C.Changes. D.Matters.
9.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A.The choice of a balanced diet.
B.The features of a balanced diet.
C.The importance of a balanced diet.
D.The relationship between diet and aging.
10.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.A balanced diet doesn't work alone.
B.Mind is closely linked to the body.
C.Exercise is the most important.
D.It's easy to get a healthier lifestyle.
11.Why is the question raised in the first paragraph
A.To show problems. B.To give evidence.
C.To list some facts. D.To lead in the topic.
D
Living a healthy lifestyle lies in forming the right eating habits.Here are some of the good habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating.
Drink plenty of water.You must drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment or if you are exercising.
Eat breakfast.Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.A recent study has shown that those who eat breakfast will consume an average of 100 calories more during the day than their colleagues (同事) who skipped breakfast.They will also be able to concentrate better.
Don't skip lunch.If you do so,your blood sugar level will drop and your metabolism (新陈代谢) will slow down.When you get home you are starving and eat everything you can find.
We all need to snack from time to time,but please choose your snacks carefully.In fact,it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks besides your three main meals.Choose healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables,low fat yogurt,cottage cheese with apple sauce,and so on.
Eat your fruits and vegetables.We should eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day.Take a piece of fruit for a snack,add some banana and raisins to your favourite breakfast cereal (谷类食品),have a salad with lunch,and eat at least one vegetable at dinner each night.
Do not eat your dinner too late.Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed.This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours.Plan dinner for the week ahead of time and make sure you have everything you need in the house so other family members can get ahead start on dinner if you have a late meeting at the office.
12.Which of the following statements is NOT true
A.You should drink at least 8 glasses of water whatever the environment may be.
B.Breakfast,lunch,snack,dinner,fruits and vegetables are equally important.
C.It is suggested that you eat your dinner at seven if you plan to go to bed at ten.
D.It is good for your health to eat fruits and vegetables at each meal every day.
13.The underlined word “raisins” most probably means .
A.dried grapes B.peach leaves
C.pieces of cheese D.peanuts
14.Who is this passage intended for
A.Students. B.Office workers.
C.Housewives. D.Cooks.
15.How many good eating habits are mentioned in the passage
A.5. B.6.
C.7. D.8.

If you're trying to cut back on your snacking (吃零食),take a moment to consider that nearly 94% of Americans snack at least once a day. 1 But once you take measures to change your habits,you might find it's not as difficult as you think.
2 Meals that have a variety of nutrients (营养物) are more likely to satisfy the desire your body has.It is very important to make sure your meals are balanced so that you ensure you do not have the desire for snacks.Make sure to have quality proteins and fats at lunch,not foods like fast food.These can help carry away your hunger throughout the day.
Be sure to eat breakfast.Breakfasts that are high in protein are observed to increase satiety (饱足) in the morning. 3 Try to eat at least 35 grams of protein for breakfast,in order to help you feel fuller throughout the day.
Eat high protein diets to help you feel full longer.Protein takes more time to digest. 4 Check the labels on your food when comparing items in the grocery store.This will allow you to select foods to carry away hunger.
Make your meals longer.Take your time to chew your food to help digest it.It can also give your body time to let you know that you are full. 5

It was raining pretty hard on Halloween,but that wasn't going to stop my little sister Kate and me from trick or treating.We decided to start at Miss Parson's house.Miss Parson was loved by us kids who lived nearby because she often shared her self made cookies with us.We usually finished them in a second,especially when we were hungry after class.Sometimes,when we visited her or did something for her,she always gave us a surprise.
Kate and I wondered what kinds of treats she'd offer.As we walked down the street,I held an umbrella,a bag for candy,and my sister's hand.Jack o lanterns gave soft light along the street.Spider webs hung in all the windows.Parents who were dressed up like monsters(怪物) stood in doorways.After we had walked a few blocks,we were wet from head to toes,and I felt Kate was trembling with cold.
There was a light on at Miss Parson's house,but there were no ghosts,goblins(小妖精),or Jack o lanterns.We climbed up the steps and saw Miss Parson through a window.She was drinking a cup of hot tea.
“Maybe she doesn't celebrate Halloween,” Kate said with a sigh,disappointedly.
“Well,even if she doesn't,she usually likes it when we visit her,” I said and knocked on the door.
Miss Parson seemed surprised when she opened the door and saw our dressing.“Is today Halloween?” she asked.“I completely forgot.I am so sorry!”
Paragraph 1:
Miss Parson rushed us into her house.
Paragraph 2:
The next morning,a hot and sweet discussion about Miss Parson and Halloween spread among us kids.

Like most people from the North,cooked wheaten food is always my favorite.I often have noodles for breakfast,steam bread or pancake for lunch and supper.I eat vegetables every day.I like seafood though it's a little expensive.I often go out for good meals with my families and friends,but we often eat a lot of meat there.
I think we should form healthy eating habits.Breakfast is very important to our health.Besides,we'd better eat less meat and more fresh vegetables.All in all,we should realize the importance of healthy diet.
【故事续写】
Miss Parson rushed us into her house. “It's cold out there,” she said.My sister's face was shining from the rain and Miss Parson dried her cheeks.“Thank you,” Kate said.“Trick or treat?”“Oh,right!Treats,” said Miss Parson.Then she disappeared for a moment and came back with a big smile on her face.“Open those bags wide,” she said.She dropped two boxes of cocoa (可可) into our bags.“Winter is just around the corner,”she said.“Some hot cocoa will keep you warm.”“Thank you,” we both said.“Happy Halloween!”
The next morning,a hot and sweet discussion about Miss Parson and Halloween spread among us kids. We told Mom about how Miss Parson had forgotten Halloween and about what she had given to us and the other kids.“It sounds as if nobody was very upset,even though she forgot Halloween,” said Mom.“No,we were happy,” I said.“Although she didn't give us candy,it was kind of fun for us all to get something different for a change.I hope it will become a Halloween tradition to give out unusual treats.”
