Period 1 Warming Up & Reading(1)
美国有个别称叫“大熔炉”，那么你知道美国为什么会有此别称吗？它代表着什么意思呢？
This great land has been attracting people from all over the world since its independence from British rule in 1783 at the end of the Revolutionary War. They came to this country leaving behind their homeland in order to make a better life for themselves. The constitution(宪法) of the United States starts with the words “We the people…”. This is what the country is all about.
“We the people…”are from Asia, Europe, South America, from every corner of the world. People have come and are still coming to this great country to become an American. This privilege of becoming a citizen should not be taken lightly. Becoming a citizen gives you the right to life, liberty, and pursuit(追求) of happiness，this being our Declaration of Independence. The pride of becoming a legal citizen and enjoying the freedoms that come with it is a dream for all the immigrants that come here.
The results of the melting pot are American citizens who become part of the history of this nation，who become the defenders of freedom and who bring their own individual talents and culture to melt into this great society. We are Asian Americans，Euro Americans, Mid Eastern Americans，or Afro Americans. We are all Americans under the red，white and blue flag.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Here is a collection of some TV series.For this list, we stick to those that have been released in recent years and we choose not to include TV hits like Game of Thrones or Sherlock.
Stranger Things
This US television series is a combination of three genres (类型)：the typical college movies where the losers rise up, the science fiction films about crazy scientists who reached their top in the 1980s and the horror movies written in the style of Stephen King.This show, starring Winona Ryder and a group of amazing kids, has managed to combine these genres so well that it has already acquired a vast army of fans worldwide.
The Pillars of the Earth
It is set in the twelfth century, a time which is considered one of the darkest and most romantic(浪漫的) periods in the history of England.Based on the best?selling novel written by Ken Follett, this TV show starring the brilliant Eddie Redmayne is widely recognized as one of the best historical TV dramas of recent years.
Mahabharata
This Indian Hindi?language series is liked by many people for being regarded as the simplest and the most fun way to learn about the age?old wisdom of the Indian people.It tells us about the kings and heroes who love, fight and make wise decisions.This drama is about the endless struggle between good and evil.
The Crown
This story about the transformation of the young Princess Elizabeth into the queen shows everything about the British monarchy(君主制)．It includes many storylines, each of which could be made into a separate TV show.The series focuses on the age?old themes of family, marriage and politics, and this is probably what makes The Crown win popularity.
( )1.What do we know about Stranger Things?
A．Stephen King determined its style.
B．It consists of three children stories.
C．Most of its central characters are kids.
D．It's much more popular than Sherlock.
( )2.Which aspect of The Pillars of the Earth is stressed in the text?

C．They mainly discuss universal themes.

In our everyday lives we meet situations in which we take many things for granted.We only treasure things when they are gone.This is a sad truth of human nature.One day, I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.
One evening, I left work and boarded the train.After entering, I noticed something unusual.The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing.I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats.I sensed a funny smell.It wasn't long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me.He was bleeding from his nose.Why wasn't anyone helping him?
His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell.Along with the smell, his eyes were dull, watery, and red.Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime.As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him.All the seats around him were empty.
Suddenly, he began to swear at the people around him.A plain?clothes police officer who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man.The officer, not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train.As the officer walked the man out of the train, the homeless man turned around and said “MY HOME！” and started crying.
A man doesn't value things until they are gone.If he didn't have a home, at least he had freedom.Now he has neither.No one wants to help someone who won't help himself.
( )5.When entering the car, how did the author feel at first?
A．Annoyed. B．Puzzled.
C．Sad. D．Calm.
( )6.How did people react to the homeless man?
A．They caught him and called the police.
B．They covered him with clean clothes.
C．They disliked and avoided him.
D．They stared at him curiously.
( )7.It can be learned that the policeman ________.
A．was very rude to the man
B．sent the man back to his hometown

D．went off the train with the man
( )8.What does the author think of the man?
A．He is a loser of life.
B．He is worth our respect.
C．He is very funny.
D．He is a fearless fighter.

名词性从句
一、概念
在句子中起名词作用的句子叫名词性从句(Noun Clause)。名词性从句的功能相当于名词(词组)，它在复合句中能担任主语、宾语(包括介词宾语)、表语以及同位语。根据它在句中不同的语法功能，名词性从句分为主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句以及同位语从句。
二、连接词
引导名词性从句的连接词可以分为三类：
(1)连接词：that, whether，if (不充当从句的任何成分)；
(2)连接代词：what, whatever, who, whoever, whom, whose, which(在句中充当主语，宾语或定语)；
(3)连接副词：when, where, how, why(在句中充当状语，表示时间、地点、方式或原因)。
三、名词性从句的分类
(一)主语从句
在复合句中，作句子主语的从句叫主语从句。
1．主语从句的引导词
主语从句通常由that, whether, what, who, which, whatever, whoever, whom, how, when, where, why等引导。
其中，that在句中无实义，只起连接作用；连接代词和连接副词在句中既保留自己的疑问含义，又起连接作用，在从句中充当一定成分。注意：whom，who指人，what指物，whatever和whoever表示泛指意义。
Who will win the match is still unknown.
谁能赢得这场比赛还不得而知。
2．用it作形式主语
主语从句是在复合句中担任主语的句子；通常位于句末，句首则采用it作形式主语。注意，what引导的主语从句一般不用it作形式主语。常以it作形式主语的句型有：
(1)It is＋名词词组(no wonder, an honour, a good thing, a pity, no surprise, common knowledge, a surprise, a fact, etc.)＋that从句
(2)It is＋过去分词(said, reported, thought, expected, decided, announced, arranged, etc.)＋that…
(3)It＋不及物动词(appears, seems, happens, occurred to me, turned out，ect.)＋that从句
(4)It＋否定意义动词(doesn't matter, makes no difference, ect.)＋that从句
(5)It is＋形容词＋that从句
It is certain that she will do well in her exam.
毫无疑问她考试成绩会很好。
注意：连接代词(副词)引导的主语从句，可以使用形式主语it(what引导的主语从句除外)。但如果句子是疑问句，则必须使用带形式主语it的结构。 此外，当主语从句出现在感叹句中时，要以it作形式主语，而把主语从句后置。
Does it matter much that they will not come tomorrow?
他们明天不来很要紧吗？
How strange it is that the children are so quiet!
孩子们这么安静真奇怪！
3．主语从句中的谓语动词形式
在主语从句中，用来表示惊奇、不相信、惋惜、理应如此等语气时，谓语动词要用虚拟语气：“(should＋)do”，常用的句型有：
(1)It is necessary (important, natural, strange，etc.)that…
(2)It is suggested (requested, proposed, desired, etc.)that…
It's suggested that we (should) take measure at once.
有人建议我们应该立刻采取措施。
语法填空
①What he wants to read now ________ (be)some magazines.
②It's important that children ____________ (have)their own hobbies and interests.
③It __________ (request)that he should leave before seven o'clock.
【答案】①is ②(should) have ③is requested
(二)宾语从句
在复合句中，用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。
1．宾语从句的引导词
宾语从句通常由连接词that, whether, if，连接代词或连接副词引导。
(1)由连接词that引导宾语从句时，that在句中不作任何成分，在口语或非正式文体中常被省去，但从句是并列句时，第二个分句前的that不可省。当that前有插入语时，that不宜省略。
We must never think (that)we are good in everything while others are good in nothing.
我们决不能认为自己什么都好，别人什么都不好。
注意：在demand, order, suggest, decide, insist, desire, request, command等表示要求、命令、建议等意义的动词后，宾语从句常用 “(should＋)动词原形”。
I insist that she (should) do her work alone.
我坚持要她自己工作。
(2)连接代词/副词
连接代词有who，whom, which, whose, what, when, where, why, how, whoever, whatever, whichever等；连接副词有when, where, why, how, whenever, wherever等。宾语从句相当于特殊疑问句但又不同于特殊疑问句，应注意句子语序要用陈述语序。
I want to know what he has told you.
我想知道他告诉了你什么。
2．宾语从句的时态
在含有宾语从句的复合句中，当主句动词是过去时态(could, would除外)，从句则要用相应的过去时态，如一般过去时、过去进行时、过去将来时等。当从句表示的是很客观真理、科学原理、自然现象，则从句仍用现在时态。
但是，当主句动词是一般现在时时，从句根据自身的句子情况，而使用不同时态。
3．否定意义后移
在动词think, believe, imagine, suppose等后接一个表示否定意义的宾语从句时，通常主句用否定形式，否定意义转移到宾语从句中。
We don't think you are here.
我们认为你不在这。
注意：通常只限于主句主语是第一人称的情况。
4．形式宾语it
当宾语从句后跟有宾语补足语时，通常在宾语从句中使用形式宾语it，而将真正的宾语从句移至句末。
语法填空
①I don't imagine that he ________ (come)tomorrow.
②How much one enjoys himself travelling depends largely on ________ he goes with, whether his friends or relatives.
单句改错
③Please tell me which do you like better.
________________________________________________________________________
④I think safe that we stay here.
________________________________________________________________________
【答案】①will come ②who/whoever/whom ③去掉do ④think后加it
(三)表语从句
在复合句中，位于系动词之后作表语的从句叫表语从句。引导表语从句的关联词与引导主语从句的关联词大致一样，表语从句位于连系动词后，有时用as if引导。其基本结构为：主语 ＋ 系动词 ＋ that从句。
The fact is that we have lost the game.
事实是我们已经输了这场比赛。
That's just what I want.
这正是我想要的。
注意： (1)当主语是reason时，表语从句要用that引导而不是because。
The reason why he was late was that he missed the train by one minute this morning.
他迟到的原因是早晨他晚了一分钟，错过了火车。
(2)whether 可引导表语从句，但与之同义的if却通常不用于引导表语从句。
四、名词性从句应注意以下几点
1．连接词what与that的用法区别
what要充当主语、宾语或表语等句子成分；
that不作任何成分，只在语法上起连接的作用。
What we need to do is to provide better education for girls.(宾语)
2．连接词whether和if的用法区别
通常，引导主语从句、表语从句和同位语从句时，要用连词whether，习惯上也说whether…or not…。
在下列情况下一般只能用whether，不用if：
a．引导主语从句并在句首时；
b．引导表语从句时；
c．引导从句作介词宾语时；
d．从句后有“or not”时；
e．后接动词不定式时。
I wonder whether he will come or not.(宾语，不可用if)
我想知道他来还是不来。
Can you tell me whether to go or to stay？(不可用if)
你能否告诉我是去还是留？
3．名词性从句的语序
与其他从句一样，名词性从句必须用陈述语序。
In one's own home one can do what one likes.
在自己家里可以随心所欲。
4．who / whoever/what / whatever的用法区别
一般说来，what/who含特指意义，而whatever/whoever含泛指意义，意为“无论什么/无论谁”。
The club will give whoever wins a prize.
俱乐部将给得胜者设奖。
5．连接词that的省略
引导主语从句、表语从句的连接词that不能省略；但引导宾语从句时，that通常可以省略。

A Vacation with My Mother
I had an interesting childhood. It was filled with surprises and amusements， all because of my mother—loving， sweet， yet absent?minded and forgetful. One strange family trip we took when I was eleven tells a lot about her.
My two sets of grandparents lived in Colorado and North Dakota， and my parents decided to spend a few weeks driving to those states and seeing all the sights along the way. As the first day of our trip approached， David， my eight?year?old brother， and I unwillingly said good?bye to all of our friends. Who knew if we'd ever see them again？ Finally， the moment of our departure arrived， and we loaded suitcases， books， games， camping equipment， and a tent into the car and bravely drove off. We bravely drove off again two hours later after we'd returned home to get the purse and the traveler's checks Mom had forgotten.
David and I were always a little nervous when using gas station bathrooms if Mom was driving while Dad slept： “You stand outside the door and play lookout while I go， and I'll stand outside the door and play lookout while you go.” I had terrible pictures in my mind： “Honey， where are the kids？” “What？ Oh， Gosh… I thought they are being awfully quiet.” We were never actually left behind in a strange city， but we weren't about to take any chances.
On the fourth or fifth night， we had trouble finding a hotel with a vacancy. After driving in vain for some time， Mom suddenly got a great idea： Why didn't we find a house with a likely?looking backyard and ask if we could set up tent there？ David and I became nervous. To our great relief， Dad turned down the idea. Mom never could understand our objections. If a strange family showed up on her from doorstep， Mom would have been delighted. She thinks everyone in the world is as nice as she is. We finally found a vacancy in the next town.

Paragraph 1：
The next day we remembered the brand?new tent we had brought with us.
Paragraph 2：
We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way.
【答案】
One possible version：
Paragraph 1：
The next day we remembered the brand?new tent we had brought with us. But then we were half an hour away from the hotel， where the tent was left behind. Dad recommended buying a new one， while Mom insisted on our going back to fetch it， saying， “Forgetful people like me may lose things repeatedly， so it's unwise to give up the tent.” Finally， we got back the tent and hit the road again. If Mom hadn't been that absent?minded， it would have saved us the trouble of going back again and again.
Paragraph 2：
We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. One day， towards evening， we found a great camping site at the foot of a high mountain. David and I helped Dad put up the tent， and Mom was busy preparing supper. When the setting sun cast an orange light over the mountains， the tent was set up and the meal was ready. Sitting around the camp fire， we talked and laughed. Every time we mentioned the funny incidents of the journey， a pleasant smile would spread over Mom's face.?Period 4 Using Language

Migingo, a tiny rock island on Lake Victoria in Kenya, measures just 0.49 acres.By all accounts, it was originally settled by two Kenyan fishermen, who came here in 1991.Others say it was found by a Ugandan, who came here first and then brought his fishing friends.It was this kind of contradicting stories and the battle over the island's fish?rich waters that created a conflict over the ownership of Migingo between Kenya and Uganda.
Back in 2009, Migingo has a population of 131, but the number has ballooned to around 1,000.Drawn by the large population of Nile perch, fishermen from Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania crowded into Migingo.In spite of measures set in place to keep population under control, the place becomes packed to the point where there's little room to walk in.
What's even more surprising is that just a few meters away lies a much larger and completely uninhabited (无人居住的) island called Usingo.It is said that the place is home to a demon(魔鬼), and fishermen are afraid to even set foot on it, let alone live there with their families.But it turns out that that is just a tale online.Locals haven't even heard about any demons, but they do have a very practical reason.
Even though there are several policemen from both Uganda and Kenya, pirate(海盗) attacks still occur.They are not as frequent and violent as they used to be, but every few months fishermen do run into pirates stealing their catch and boat engines, sometimes even killing them in the process.But there is strength in numbers, so it's safer for most people to live on Migingo than to risk moving to Usingo and getting attacked during the night.
Migingo remains the highest population density (密度) worldwide, but it may not hold that title for much longer.Due to over?fishing around the island, the supply of Nile perch is on the decrease, and people are starting to move to other fishing spots.
( )1.What makes Migingo different from other islands?
A．It belongs to two countries.
B．It has the densest population.
C．It attracts the most tourists.
D．It is home to brave fishermen.
( )2.Why don't fishermen stay on Usingo?
A．They can't get a huge catch of fish.
B．They believe the tale online to be true.
C．They may be attacked by pirates at night.
D．They can't be protected by policemen there.
( )3.What may happen to Migingo in several years?
A．It will cause more violent conflicts.
B．It will be an unsuitable place to live.
C．It will be deserted by some fishermen.
D．It will have the largest population of fish.
B
May Day(五朔节), the first day of May, is celebrated as a spring festival in many countries.It marks the approach of summer.
The English developed their May Day festival from the Roman festival called Floralia.In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers to honor the goddess of spring, Flora.In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages.People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May.Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon attached to the top of the pole.They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors.They collected dew(露水) on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.
Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole.May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day.She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street.In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain.
But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing.They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends' and neighbors' on May Day morning.At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.
( )4.What do we know about the May Day in Britain in the Middle Ages?
A．People dressed in bright colors.
B．People celebrated it with enthusiasm.
C．People presented flowers to the goddess of spring.
D．People stayed at home instead of going to churches.
( )5.Why did people wash their faces with dew on May Day?
A．To bring good luck.
B．To become prettier.
C．To get magic power.
D．To get young again.
( )6.Paragraph 3 is mainly developed ________.
A．by comparison B．by space
C．by process D．by classification
( )7.Nowadays, many American children celebrate May Day with lots of activities EXCEPT ________.
A．hanging flowers on the doorknobs of their friends' homes
B．selecting May Queen and dancing around the maypole
C．gathering flowers in handmade paper baskets and singing May Day songs
D．collecting dew on May Day morning and washing faces

How to Set Goals
Whether you have small dreams or high expectations, setting goals allows you to plan how you want to move through life.Some achievements can take a lifetime to attain, while others can be completed in a day.__1__
● Determine your life goals.Ask yourself some important questions about what you want for your life.What do you want to achieve today, in a year, and in your lifetime? The answers to this question can be as general as “I want to be happy” or “I want to help people”．__2__
● Set specific goals.Be specific and realistic about what it is that you want to achieve.Research shows that setting a specific goal makes you more likely to achieve it.__3__ For example, “Be healthier.” is too big and vague to be a helpful goal.“I want to eat more vegetables, and I want to run a marathon.” is better.
● Write out your goals.Be detailed, be clear, and include your steps.__4__ Keep your list in a place where you can get informed frequently.This will help keep you motivated.
● __5__ You may find yourself set in your ways concerning broad life goals, but take the time to reevaluate your smaller goals.Are you accomplishing them according to your timeline? Are they still necessary to keep you on track towards your larger life goals? Allow yourself the flexibility to make some small changes to your goals.
A．Adjust your goals.
B．Track and measure your progress.
C．Having deadlines will keep you motivated.
D．Consider what you hope to achieve in 10, 15, or 20 years.
E．Here are some important ideas that you may find helpful.
F．Writing them down tends to make them become a little more real.
G．Remember that you may need to break large goals into smaller goals.

Many years ago, when we were a young couple with two small children, aged 2 and 4, we were practically impecunious.My in?laws lived from hand to mouth, so we didn't expect any help from them.My parents lived a great distance away, and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.
My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick?up truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers, but it was constantly breaking down.It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed.The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.
We lived in the countryside, and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it.One winter evening, I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something.It was nearly dark, and I had to bend down to see what it was.I could hardly believe my eyes.There sat a large basket loaded with food.
It was heavy, so I called my husband to carry it into the house.Once inside, we discovered two loaves of bread, some butter, several cans of vegetables, a can of orange sauce, and a large turkey.There was so much that I couldn't remember it all, but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner — everything except potatoes.
A little while later I remembered that I hadn't taken the trash to the barrel.By now it was dark, so I had to turn on the yard light — and that's when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.
That dinner was the best I could remember.
We weren't able to thank our donators, though, because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family.Whoever it was, we are forever grateful.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。“我”和丈夫有两个孩子，很多年前，我们生活贫困，但羞于将处境告诉父母。丈夫用一辆旧卡车送货谋生。一天晚上，“我”在家门口发现一篮子丰盛的食物，那一餐令“我”终生难忘。“我”将永远感谢那位送食物给“我”家的人。
4．C 词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“My parents lived a great distance away, and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.”可知，“我的”父母住在很远的地方，“我”羞于让他们知道“我们的”处境；结合画线词所在句可知，“我们”是有着两个孩子的年轻夫妻，据此可以推知，“我们的”日子过得相当贫穷，才会羞于让远方的父母知道“我们的”情况。据此可以判断，画线词义为“贫穷的”，故C项正确。
5．C 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句的“My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick?up truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers…”可知，“我的”丈夫用一辆旧卡车为当地的店主送货谋生，故C项正确。
6．B 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“I could hardly believe my eyes.There sat a large basket loaded with food.”可知，看到一篮子的食物，“我”几乎不能相信自己的眼睛；据此可以判断，作者很惊讶，故B项正确。
7．A 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了“我”和丈夫有两个孩子，生活贫困，但羞于将处境告诉父母。丈夫用一辆旧卡车送货谋生。一天晚上，“我”在家门口发现一篮子丰盛的食物，那一餐令“我”终生难忘。“我”将永远感谢那位送食物给“我”家的人。据此可以判断，A项最能概括文意，体现文章主旨，故A项正确。
C
USA Today is a national American daily newspaper published by the Gannett Company.It was set up by Alten “AL” Neuharth in 1982 with the goal of providing a national newspaper in the US market, where generally only a single local newspaper was available.The paper has the widest circulation of any newspaper in the US, averaging over 2.5 million copies every weekday.It was the first color newspaper in the US.
The newspaper was also among the first newspapers to use satellites to send the final edition of the newspaper to different locations across the country for printing and final distribution in those regional markets.This allowed the paper to include the most recent news and sports scores in each edition.
Each edition of the newspaper consists of four sections: News, Money, Sports and Life.On Fridays, two Life sections are included: the regular life for movies subtitled Weekend, which features television, films and trends, and a travel supplement called Destinations & Diversions.Each section is denoted(表示) by a certain color to different sections, which is seen in a box the top?left?corner of the first page, with News being blue(section A), Money with green(section B), red for Sports(section C) and purple for Life(section D)．
USA Today prints each complete story on the front page of the respective(各自的) section with exception to the cover story.The cover story is a longer story that requires a jump (readers must turn to another page in the paper to complete the story, usually the very next page, page 2 of that section)．Starting in February, 2008, the newspaper added a magazine supplement(增刊) called Open Air, appearing several times a year.
( )8.Why did Alten “AL” Neuharth found USA Today in 1982?
A．To advertise his products.
B．To voice people's views.
C．To provide a national newspaper to Americans.
D．To compete with other newspapers.
( )9.From the first paragraph we can learn that________.
A．USA Today is not published on weekends
B．USA Today is the first color newspaper in the world
C．USA Today is an international newspaper
D．USA Today developed from an American local newspaper
( )10.Why can USA Today include the most recent news to the public?
A．Because its reporters work every corner of the world.
B．Because it has four sections and a supplement.
C．Because it has the widest circulation in the US.
D．Because it uses satellites to send its final editions.

You know the drill when it comes to losing weight: take in fewer calories and burn more calories.__11__ If you're trying to drop a few pounds fast, these interesting tips will make it easy for you to lose the weight quickly.
Eat in front of mirrors and you'll lose weight
One study finds that eating in front of mirrors reduces the amount people eat by nearly one?third.Having to look yourself in the eye reflects back some of your own inner standards and goals.__12__
Sniff a banana or an apple when you feel hungry
__13__ Researchers find that the more frequently people sniff, the less hungry they are and the more weight they lose — an average of 30 pounds each.One theory is that sniffing the food tricks the brain into thinking you're actually eating it.
__14__
Whether that's a floor, a couple of windows, or your car, a 150?pound person will burn about four calories for every minute spent cleaning.Scrub(使净化) for 30 minutes and you could work off approximately 120 calories, the same number in a half?cup of frozen yogurt.
Stare at the color blue
There's a good reason you won't see many fast?food restaurants decorated in blue: it helps to control an appetite.So serve up dinner on blue plates, dress in blue while you eat, and cover your table with a blue tablecloth.__15__ Studies find they encourage eating.
A．You might feel silly, but it works.
B．Therefore, adjust your eating habits.
C．Wash something thoroughly once a week.
D．That's all it takes to lose as many pounds as possible.
E．On the contrary, avoid red, yellow, and orange in your dining areas.

【语篇解读】作者最美好的记忆就是沿着河边散步，然后悠闲地坐在岸边聆听鸟鸣和风吹竹叶的声音，层层竹林在风的吹动下弯腰但又完好无损地回到原来的位置。由此作者悟出一个道理：人应该像竹子一样能屈能伸，优雅地面对生活中的挑战。

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
(2017浙江卷)阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
On a bright， warm July afternoon， Mac Hollan， a primary school teacher， was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair， but they had encouraged Mac to carry on， and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行) along alone， he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man， that's a big dog！” he thought. But when he looked to the side， he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all， but a wolf， quickly catching up with him.
Mac's heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray(防熊喷雾剂). With one hand on the bars， he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal， and to Mac's relief， it fell back， shaking its head. But a minute later， it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac's bike， tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time， and again， it fell back only to quickly restart the chase(追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He was a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill， he'd be easy caught up and the wolf's teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment， Paul and Beeky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn't think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later， they spotted what they， too， assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer， they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast， just a dozen yards away now.
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2.至少使用5个短文中标有下画线的关键词语；
3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头已为你写好，不计入总词数；
4.续写完成后，请用下画线标出你所使用的关键词语。
Paragraph 1：
The car abruptly stopped in front of him.
Paragraph 2：
A few minutes later， the other two cyclists arrived.
【答案】
Paragraph 1：
The car abruptly stopped in front of him. Out of the car came Paul and Becky. They immediately stopped the wolf in front of themselves to protect Mac. Paul took out a metal bar from the car at once and started a fight with the wolf， and Becky joined it in no time. The wolf jumped up， and rushed towards one of them， but was beaten back. Seeing that he couldn't win， the wolf ran away down the hill.
Paragraph 2：
A few minutes later， the other two cyclists arrived. At the sight of the scene， they were aware of what had happened. They asked whether Mac had been injured， comforted their companion and thanked Paul and Becky. It was because of their help that a disaster was avoided. Meanwhile， they expressed their great regret for Mac. This shows how mankind cares about life， cherishes friendship， and recognizes the importance of cooperation and mutual aid.
