（本大题共20分）
A
Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully. The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight(增加体重) instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
46.During the test, the people were given ________.
A. no breakfast at all
B. different foods or nothing
C. very rich breakfast
D. little food for breakfast
47. The results show that ___________.
A. breakfast has great effect (影响) on work and studies
B. breakfast has little to do with a person’s work
C. a person will work better if he only has fruit and milk

you will

Last May Day my family went to the country by car for our holiday. There was too much traffic on the road, so we had to move very slowly. It took us about an hour to get out of the town. After some time, we went up to a hill. It was green and beautiful. We thought this was a good place for a picnic, so we stopped and took the food, fruit and drinks out of the car. We sat down and began to eat. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and it started to rain. We had to run back to our car and had our picnic in the car. Then we drove back home. What a sad trip!
