Hi Zhou Ling,
How are you Do you still go to the gym every day I used to go to the gym three times a week, but I don't work out any more. I know another way to stay slim.Looking good is important to women, isn't it Most young women want a slim figure these days, especially here in Canada. I'm trying to lose weight because I'm so ashamed of my body. Since I'm preparing to act in a new TV show, I'm taking weight-loss pills called Fat-Less,which are quite popular among young women here. I hope to lose at least 10 kilograms. I take two pills a day and don't need to exercise.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Love,
Amy

(二)1.As is shown in the pictures, leading an unhealthy life, the boy used to be overweight. He used to sit on the sofa, eating snacks which contained much fat and sugar. However, he looks like a different boy now after taking exercise and keeping a balanced diet.
2.Proper measures should be taken for teenagers to live healthily. Firstly, teenagers are advised to have a balanced diet containing more vegetables and fruits. And the intake of sugar and salt should be strictly controlled. Secondly, regular exercise along with a good amount of sleep also counts greatly. Finally, staying positive, when they are faced with challenges, is of equal importance.
(三)1.I'm sorry to hear you take weight-loss pills. We shouldn't be embarrassed about our weight. I think you look great as you are, and you're a wonderful person. I know that the pressure to stay slim is a problem. However, nothing is more important than health.
2.I think one healthy way of losing weight is to keep a balanced diet. That is to say, we should not have too much fat or snacks, but more vegetables and fruits. To do exercise or play some sports is also an effective way to lose weight — walking and riding a bicycle are the easiest and cheapest ways to exercise.

On James Owen's 70th birthday, he saw a video of himself walking with difficulty up to the stage where he was giving a talk.“I looked like an old man,” says Owen, who built a successful career on Wall Street.
He was about 25 pounds overweight and had chronic (慢性的) trouble with his back, knees, and shoulders.But instead of giving in to age, Owen decided to set an ambitious five-year goal: He wanted to be pain-free, and he decided the way to get there was through exercise — even though at the time he couldn't do a single push-up.
Owen began his new exercise regimen (养生计划) by walking, though he became out of breath after five minutes.But that didn't discourage him.He kept at the walks every day, along with some stretching.Once he had those basics done, he started weightlifting and hired a personal trainer to teach him and to design a routine he could follow on his own.The last piece was finding other activities he enjoyed, which turned out to be cycling and swimming.
In less than five years, Owen was able to do three sets of 50 push-ups each and walk for miles each day.And yes, he was free of aches and pains.
Owen used his experience to write a book called Just Move! A New Approach to Fitness After 50, in which he details how older adults can safely get off the couch and add more movement to their lives.The key: getting started, even if you walk just three blocks, which was all he could manage at first.“Think of it as movement, not exercise,” he says.“The key is slow and steady progress.”
Now 81 and retired, Owen exercises an hour a day, six days a week.“It is the best __________ I've ever made in my life,” he says.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了James Owen看见自己老态龙钟的样子后,决定通过一个五年健身计划来改变自己并获得成功的故事。

4.Why did Owen make up his mind to do exercise?
A.To celebrate his 70th birthday.
B.To get rid of his physical pain.
C.To write a book about exercise.

√
5.What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.The exercise he preferred to do.
B.The routine his trainer designed for him.
C.The difficulty he met during exercise.
D.The process he undertook to keep fit.
解析:段落大意题。第三段提到Owen开始了健身计划,当他可以完成基础训练后,他找了教练为他制订了专门的计划,故第三段主要介绍了Owen健身的过程。
√
6.What advice did Owen give to the people after 50 in his book?
A.They should invest on Wall Street.
B.They should only do some slow exercise.
C.They should do exercise step by step.
D.They should exercise an hour a day.
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后三句可知,Owen给50岁以上的人的建议:关键是要开始锻炼,并且慢慢取得持续的进步。
√
7.What does the underlined word “investment” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Input. B.Money.
C.Solution. D.Impression.
√
解析:词义猜测题。根据第一段可知,Owen在华尔街有成功的职业生涯,由此可推断他是一名金融师;结合常识可知,“investment”意为“投资”,此处指他的健身计划,与A项词义相近。
C
Posting selfies (自拍) online can be a fun way to share your life with your friends and family. But some people take their photos a bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing them. This not only presents a “fake” image (形象) of those people to the world, but can even make people feel worse about themselves.
Researchers in Australia did a study in which 130 women aged 18 to 30 were asked to look at a series of photos. Some of the photos showed thin women, while others showed average-sized women. Afterwards, the women were asked to take a selfie with a phone and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie.
The women were also asked about their personal dissatisfaction with their bodies and faces several times during the experiment — before and after viewing their images, and after editing their selfies.
The researchers' findings showed that the longer the women took to edit and post their selfies, the more likely they were to have negative feelings about their own appearance. In addition, the more heavily edited the photos were, the more likely it was that the women were dissatisfied with their facial appearance.
People are often pressured to present the best version (版本) of themselves. This in turn creates greater stress as they edit their photos to “perfection”, while they themselves don't actually change, according to Professor Marika Tiggemann, one of the researchers. The findings show the difficulties people face when using social media.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了过度编辑自拍照会给自己带来压力,而这种压力主要来自现实生活中的不自信。
8.Why do some people spend plenty of time editing their photos?
A.They want to show people their fake image.
B.They want to make people feel worse about them.
C.They want to kill time.
D.They take their photos too seriously.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But some people take their photos a bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing them.”可知,有些人之所以花费了大量时间来编辑照片是因为他们太重视他们的照片了。
9.Which things were the women asked to do in the study?
①To look at given photos
②To make their selfies
③To comment on given photos
④To express their attitudes
⑤To edit their selfies
A.①②③④ B.①②④⑤
C.①②③⑤ D.②③④⑤
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第二、三段内容可知,研究中要求130位女士观看一些照片,然后自拍并对自己的照片进行编辑和评价,并未要求对提供的照片进行评价,可排除③。故选B项。
10.Which one of the following is NOT the research's findings?
A.The longer one edits his selfies, the more likely he feels negative with his appearance.
B.The more heavily edited one's selfies are,the more likely he is dissatisfied with his face.
C.When people post online their best selfies, their stress may decrease.
D.Posting over-edited selfies online can make people feel worse about themselves.
√
解析:细节理解题。 根据最后一段中的“This in turn creates greater stress as they edit their photos to ‘perfection’”可推断出,当人们在网上发布他们最好的自拍时,他们的压力会增加,而不是减少。故C项与研究发现不符,符合题意。
11.What do Professor Marika Tiggemann's words mean in the last paragraph?
A.One's stress with over-edited selfies actually results from pressure.
B.One's stress with over-edited selfies is related to his appearance change.
C.One's stress can lead to his photos' perfection.
D.One can present his best version of himself under no pressure.
√
解析:推理判断题。分析最后一段中Professor Marika Tiggemann的话可知,人们之所以会过度编辑自拍照是源于生活中的压力,他们对自己的外貌、身材或其他方面感到不满意。
D
Parents take note! You might want to cut down on your kid's screen time. According to a new study, children who spend a lot of time in front of the screens are at a higher risk of gaining weight and abdominal (腹部的) obesity, regardless of how much they exercise. The increase in childhood obesity is one of the largest health problems globally.
The study, carried out at the Folkh lsan Research Centre, focused on links between screen time and being overweight by studying the Finnish Health in Teens data of more than 10,000 children from across Finland. The studied children were between 9 and 12 years of age.
The subjects reported the time spent watching television programs and films on screens and on the long-time computer use outside school hours. The children were measured for height and weight.
The results of the study showed that heavy screen time takes up children's much free time and is related to both overweight and abdominal obesity, and even influences their performance at school. But there was no difference in the findings by age, gender, native languages, sleep time and exercise during free time. Watching a lot of television was also related to overweight and obesity in children who exercised the most.
“It must be noted that this study does not show anything about direct cause and effect. It may be that overweight children spend more time in front of screens, or that heavy screen time may result in overweight,” said researcher Elina Engberg from the University of Helsinki.
“Neither did the study measure the intensity of exercise. The children were only asked about the amount of time they spent exercising in their free time. Further research on the combined effect of the screen time, the physical activity and the diet on children's weight is needed,” Elina Engberg added.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究发现,过多的屏幕时间会导致儿童肥胖。
12.What can we infer from the results of the study?
A.The less sleep time kids get, the fatter they become.
B.Exercise has nothing to do with overweight.
C.Kids' watching too much TV leads to less exercise.
D.Heavy screen time makes kids absent from school.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句可知,观看太长时间的电视,即使对于那些经常运动的孩子来讲,也会面临过度肥胖的问题。因此锻炼与孩子的过度肥胖没有关系。
√
13.What will Elina focus on in the future?
A.Ways of kids' exercise.
B.The importance of physical activities.
C.How to advise kids to spend their free time.
D.Whether other things affect kids' overweight.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,Elina希望未来进一步研究影响孩子体重的综合因素,比如:孩子接触屏幕的时间、体育活动以及他们的饮食。
√
14.The passage is intended for _______.
A.parents B.children
C.schools D.researchers
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Parents take note!You might want to cut down on your kid's screen time.”可知,本文的写作对象是孩子的父母。
√

Is Dieting OK for Kids?
You may know some adults and kids who worry about their weight and say they're going on a diet. You might wonder if you should be on a diet, too. _____ Why? Let's find out.
16
Dieting to Lose Weight
_____ When someone diets to lose weight, the person is trying to eat fewer calories than the body consumes. By doing this, the person may lose body fat and decrease his or her weight. Likewise, if a person eats more calories than the body consumes, the person may gain weight.
17
Kids usually do not need to diet in this way. _____ During this time, kids need a variety of healthy foods to keep their bodies growing properly. Some kids are overweight, but even overweight kids often can improve their health simply by eating nutritious foods and being more active.
18
_____ But kids may hurt their health even more by doing something extreme (极端的), like skipping meals or deciding to eat only fruits.
Who Needs to Diet?
Though some people may feel they weigh too much or too little, there is no perfect body shape. Some people have larger frames and will always look bigger and heavier than people with smaller frames.
19
_____ Your doctor can examine you and check your body mass index (身体质量指数). That's a way of estimating how much body fat you have. If the doctor is concerned about your weight, he or she can recommend a couple of goals:
for you to gain weight at a slower pace
for you to maintain your current weight
20
For some kids, the doctor may recommend losing some weight, but this should be done with the doctor's help. Kids who need to lose weight may visit with a dietitian who can explain how to reduce calories safely still getting all the necessary nutrients.
A.All foods and many drinks contain calories.
B.It is important to form a good eating habit.
C.Being overweight can cause health problems.
D.Not eating properly can be very harmful to kids.
E.Unlike adults, kids are still growing and developing.
F.Talk to your doctor if you have questions about your weight.
G.But most kids do not need to — and should not — diet this way.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。很多孩子认为自己太胖需要减肥,经常不吃早餐或者只吃水果。其实,大多数孩子没有必要节食。如果认为自己的体重有问题,应该咨询医生,按照医生的建议去做。
16.选G 第一段的前两句提到,一些成年人和孩子担心自己的体重,说他们要节食。你也许想知道自己是否也需要节食;再根据空后的“Why”以及下文的内容可推知,G项“但是多数孩子不需要也不应该这样节食”承上启下,符合语境。
17.选A 根据空后的“当有人节食减肥时,这个人会试着摄入少于身体所需的卡路里量”可知,本空应提到饮食中包含卡路里,故A项符合语境。
18.选E 上文提到,孩子通常不需要这样节食;下文提到,在这个阶段,他们需要各种各样的健康食品来使身体健康成长;故E项“与成人不同,孩子仍处于成长发育阶段”承上启下,符合语境。
19.选C 下文提到,但是如果孩子做一些极端的事情,例如不吃饭或只吃水果,这样对他们的健康造成的伤害会更大;故C项“超重可能会引起健康问题”衔接下文,符合语境。
20.选F 根据下句“医生可以为你做检查,核实你的身体质量指数”可知,F项“如果你有关于体重方面的疑问,你可以与你的医生交谈”引出下文,符合语境。

Already Perfect
Each one of us struggles with self-worth to some degree.I spent much of my time attempting to achieve perfection in every aspect of my life.What I didn't realize was that in my efforts to be perfect, I almost lost my life.
During my childhood, I wanted everyone's praise and acceptance.After I graduated from high school, my struggles with self-worth increased.I began to put pressure on myself to succeed in the adult world.Meanwhile, I wasn't feeling very confident and successful.I started to believe that my difficulties and “failures” in life were caused by my weight.I had always been a thin-to-average sized person.Suddenly, I was convinced that I was overweight.In my mind, I was FAT!
Slowly, I began to control my food by trying to diet, but nothing seemed to work.I continued to reduce what I ate each day and told myself that I would succeed, and in turn, I felt good about myself.
People around me began to notice my weight loss.At first, they weren't alarmed; maybe some were even envious.But then the comments showed some concern.“You're losing too much weight.” “Elisa, you're so thin.” “You look sick.” “You'll die if you keep this up.” All their words only made me believe that I was on the right path, getting closer to “perfection.”
My poor nutrition (营养) began to cause me to lose sleep.I found it hard to concentrate on my work or to focus on anything for a long time.I was pushing myself harder and harder at the gym struggling to burn fat.My parents tried to stop me but I disagreed that I had a problem.None of my clothes fit, and it was hard to buy any, since I had become too thin!
注意:1.续写词数应为 150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Then one night, I couldn't sleep again, and my heart beat its way out of my chest.___________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
When I lay on the hospital bed, I began to rethink what I did to my body.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
参考范文:
Then one night, I couldn't sleep again, and my heart beat its way out of my chest.I tried to relax, but I couldn't.The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer breathe.Really scared and ill, I felt I was going to die.Knowing that help was needed, I stood up, went towards the door, and immediately fell down, letting out a cry of pain.Awakened by the unusual sound, my parents came in to see what had happened.Shocked and worried, they rushed me to the hospital.It took doctors and nurses several hours to bring me back to life.
When I lay on the hospital bed, I began to rethink what I did to my body.I decided to stop my foolish way of losing weight and pursuing perfection.Instead, I must be confident of myself and stay committed to being healthy.I now use my intelligence, talents and acts of kindness to express myself.This is true beauty, and it has nothing to do with the size of my body.With my experience of trying to be “perfect” on the outside, I had forgotten who I was on the inside.What I know now is that we are — each and every one of us — already perfect.UNIT 4 课时检测(七) 单元语基回顾性盘查
