  Body image—the way people feel about their looks—is a big problem for many young people today. Ac- cording to a 1????, more than half the teenage girls in the USA think 2????should be on a diet(节食), and almost one in five teenage boys are 3????about their bodies and their weight.
But what's the cause?In the study, many blame(责备)the media(媒体). Turn on the TV and you'll 4???? see beautiful models, handsome actors and fit sports stars. 5????a magazine or a newspaper, look through the Inter- net, and it's usually 6????.Many young people feel pressure to 7????these“perfect”people. But for most, this is just not possible. In the USA, the average(平均的)woman is 163 cm tall and weighs 64 kilos, 8????the average model is 180 cm tall and weighs 53 kilos.
When people don't look the way many 9????people look, they may become less confident. Some stop eating ???? 10????in order to lose weight. Students can lose so much confidence that they start to 11????taking part in class- room activities at school.
Body image problems don't 12????as we get older, either. In the UK, for example, women over 50 spend more money on cosmetics(化妆品)than any other 13????group. Older men spend a lot of money trying to 14????hair loss(损失).Is there a solution to the problem?A 2016 study in the UK suggested that body image lessons should be provided in 15????. Others believe it's a problem that all of society needs to deal with. As Meaghan Ramsey says,“We need to judge(评判)people by what they do, not what they look like.”

[语篇解读] 通过这则讲述受伤的兔子成功脱险的寓言故事,我们得知:做事情要竭尽全力,不要为失败找 借口。
1.B 句意:他看到前方不远处有一只兔子从灌木丛中跑出来,他迅速举起枪射击。根据常识猎人看到逃跑 的猎物会迅速(quickly)开枪射击。slowly慢慢地;easily容易地;strangely奇怪地。
2.C 句意:兔子害怕地(in fear)跑了。in order依次;in need生活困难的;in surprise惊奇地。从上文可知兔子 受伤了,故C项符合语境。
3.D 句意:猎人挥手示意狗去追赶(run after)它。bark at对着……吠;look at 看;look after照顾。根据下文的 rushed可以推出答案。
4.D 根据语境可知,狗跑得很快而且信心(confidence)十足,故选D。
5.A 句意:兔子如此拼命地奔跑,以至于它看起来(seemed)根本没受伤。become变成;taste品尝;sound听起 来。由于兔子受伤了,只能是看起来似乎没受伤。

8.A 此处指狗尽力为自己(itself)辩解。根据上文的blamed it可知不能用himself。
9.B 根据上下文可知,其他兔子对它的幸运(luck)很吃惊。兔子负伤而成功逃脱实属幸运。
10.C 句意:当狗快捉住你的时候你是怎么设法(manage)逃掉的?succeed成功;fail失败;suggest建议。当表 示“努力完成某事”时,应使用manage to do sth.。
11.D 句意:狗捉不到我,它最多只会受到责备,所以(so)它要做的就是尽力。前后为因果关系。
12.B 句意:对我来说,情况完全不同。for对……来说。
13.D????句意:如果(if)我被捉到,我肯定会丧命。此处表示假设。though虽然;unless除非;until直到……为 止。

Some scientists believe that the first plants to appear on Earth over 500 million years ago 3????looked purple, not green. Plants today are green because 4????use green chlorophyll(叶绿素)to produce energy.  5????these early plants probably used something called retinal, which is a dark purple color.

But 10,000 dead sea snails 7????you just one gram(克)of purple dye...as well as a very bad smell! This 8???? purple dye was called Tyrian purple, and it was the preferred 9????of emperors.
In 16th-century England, purple was 10????for the king's family members. Queen Elizabeth I's clothes were purple, but ordinary people were not allowed to 11????the color.
