It’s popular among students. The company recently apologized for a misleading advertisement.The company said the drinks are “sucrose-free”(零蔗糖), but this is not the same as “sugar-free”. Now thecompany has changed the words “sugar-free” to “low sugar” on the bottles.In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar, such as fructose (果糖) and sugar alcohol (糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are used as sweeteners (甜味剂). They offer little energy, but a small amount of them can make drinks taste sweet. That’s why diet drinks like Genki Forest are popular among people who want to lose weight.However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet-tasting things, it sends your brain a “sweet signal”. Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the diet soft drink has little energy, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food. According to China Daily, drinking too many diet drinks might lead to obesity (肥胖) and type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Would you like to try diet drinks now?36．Why did Genki Forest apologize?A．For not having sugar in its drinks.B．For misspelling words on its packaging.C．For advertising its products incorrectly.D．For making too many advertisements.37．What can we infer about Genki Forest from Paragraph 3?A．There are sweeteners in its drinks.B．Its drinks have high levels of sucrose.C．Its drinks taste sweeter than other drinks.D．People can lose weight with its drinks.38．What do studies show about sweeteners?A．They cause the brain to stop receiving signals.B．They provide enough energy for people.C．They stop the body from getting energy.D．They probably make people feel hungrier. 39．According to the passage, drinking diet drinks can be __________.A．fun B．harmful C．refreshing D．fashionable40．What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A．Sweeteners can make drinks sweeter.B．Genki Forest is popular with people.C．Diet drinks can help people lose weight.D．Think twice about the diet drink trend.Jacob was a driver sent to pick me up for a three-hour drive.

"We cannot trust that adults alone will save our future，" he said in the speech. "We have to take our future in our own hands."Finkbeiner is now in his twenties，and Plant﹣for﹣the﹣Planet is an organization with around 70，000 members.It works to teach people about climate change and to encourage the planting of more trees.Germany's one million tree was planted long ago.The goal now is one trillion — 150 for every person on Earth.Finkbeiner continues to give talks on climate change to world leaders.

It tells a story that is both shocking and full of hope.Set in 1947, it tells the story of Andy Dufresne, a banker who was sentenced(判处) to life in Shawshank State Prison. He was accused of killing two people, although he didn’t do it. After years of suffering in the prison, he started to make friends with others and won their respect with his outstanding accounting (会计学的) abilities.But Andy never stopped wanting freedom. During his 20 years in prison, he had been digging a hole with a small pickaxe (篙头) every day and hiding the hole with a poster. As his well-prepared escape plan was put into practice, the suspense (悬念) in the book keeps me on edge until the end.Famous Irish writer Oscar Wilde once said “We’re all in the gutter (臭水沟), but some of us are looking at stars.” This saying perfectly sums up Andy’s life. The thing that makes the biggest impression on me is Andy’s love for the beauty of life. He plays a song over the prison’s broadcast system, even though he was not allowed to do so. When the singer’s voice was heard, the prisoners stopped talking, immersing themselves in the music and letting the beauty flood in.The goal of this book is to show readers the power of strength, hope and patience.56．In which section may we read the above material?A．MAGIC WORLD B．COOL INVENTIONC．I REVIEW D．DETECTIVE FUN57．Andy was put in prison because ________.A．he stole money from a bankB．he made some bad friendsC．he dug holes in the groundD．he was said to have killed two people58．The underlined words “kept me on edge” in paragraph 3 probably mean ________.A．to make me feel anxious but also curiousB．to make me feel relaxed and comfortableC．to make me feel like giving up readingD．to make me feel bored and sleepy59．The paragraph 4 is mainly about ________.A．how Andy escaped from prisonB．why Andy played a song on TVC．what Oscar Wilde thought of the bookD．what kind of attitude Andy held towards life60．The author of the story would probably agree that ________.A．many people are put in prison by mistakeB．it is not necessary to fear the worldC．hope is the best thing to hold on toD．prisoners should be allowed to listen to musicA sunflower is a sunflower. A mobile phone is a mobile phone. But can you combine the two to do something for the environment? It may well be possible next year. When you have finished with your mobile phone, you willbe able to bury it in a garden or a plant pot and wait for it to flower.A biodegradable (生物所能分解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage consumers to recycle.Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and is able to change shape. But over time it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that contains a sunflower seed. When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms fertilizers (肥料). These feed the seed and help the flower grow.Engineers have designed a small window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away. “We've only put sunflower seeds into the cover so far. But we are working with plant experts to find out which flowers will perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time." said one scientist.As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly throwing their mobiles away. This means producers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them. Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. However, a biodegradable cover can offer some relief for nature.61．After you have finished using the new type of mobile phone, __________.A．it can produce a sunflower seedB．it will be recycled by some scientistsC．the phone will do harm to the environmentD．the phone cover will break down easily into the soil62．What can we know about the cover of the new type of phone?A．It may make the seed grow at any time.B．It can give out poisonous chemicals when breaking down.C．It can turn into useful fertilizers for the sunflower seed.D．Its shape can be changed into hard or soft plastic.63．The type of research is done because ___________.A．too many waste mobile phones may lead to environmental problemsB．the technology of making phones is changing so quicklyC．nobody has ever thought of recycling mobile phonesD．it can help flowers grow better64．According to the passage, it’s TRUE that ___________.A．about 650 million mobile phones are recycled every yearB．biodegradable mobile phones are available in the marketC．engineers have designed a small window to hold the rose seedD．the flower only grows when the phone is thrown away65．What’s the purpose of the passage?A．To discuss the development of the cell phone technology.B．To introduce an environmental-friendly cell phone to the readers.C．To persuade the readers to buy biodegradable cell phones.D．To tell the popularity of biodegradable cell phones.Pierre Dupin had delivered milk to the families on Prince Edward Street for thirty years. All who knew him loved him.Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company’s stables, saying to Joseph, “Good morning! My old friend!” Then, the two started their day proudly. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to getdown off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door…One day, the president of the company came to check the early morning milk deliveries. Jacques, the foreman(领班) of the stables, pointed to Pierre and said,“See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre?”“Yeah! But Pierre’s getting old.” said the president, “Tell him it is time he rested…”But Pierre said, “My life will be nothing if I can’t drive Joseph every day. We are two old men! Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.”Then one cold morning, after about two years, Jacques said, “Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn’t wake up. Go over and see him.”Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No…no… You…you don’t understand, Jacques.”Now, Jacques looked into Pierre’s eyes. He saw a dead, lifeless look in them. So he said, “Take the day off, Pierre!Pierre stepped into the street. Then there came a warning shout and a screech(尖锐的刹车声)…Five minutes later, a doctor announced, “Pierre’s dead…”“I couldn’t help it.” the driver said, “Why, he walked as though he were blind?”The doctor bent down. “Blind? Of course! This man has been blind for five years.” he turned to Jacques, “Didn’t you know that?”“None of us knew.” Jacques said softly, “Only one…only one knew—a friend of his, named Joseph…”66．According to the first two paragraphs, we can know that ___________.A．Pierre and Joseph worked well togetherB．people on the street knew Joseph better than PierreC．Joseph knew the streets in the city better than PierreD．Joseph managed to deliver milk by itself even without Pierre’s company67．Pierre refused to leave his job because __________.A．he thought he was not old enoughB．Joseph couldn’t work without his helpC．he was unwilling to be separated from JosephD．people on the street couldn’t live without him68．The underlined sentences tell us that __________.

Optimistic and dedicated to sports despite losing his right leg at the age of 2, the gold medalist’s life story has touched Chinese netizens, inspiring them to give him the nickname “Sunshine Boy.”During the match, Li defeated Ukrainian athlete Artem Manko 15-12 in the final competition of the men’s saber (佩剑) individual category A, which marked Li’s first public appearance in Paralympic Games. Li said he had never expected to win top honor, and he would have been satisfied with just entering the semifinals, or even better to win a silver or a bronze.Behind Li’s light-hearted mentality is the athlete’s hard work and dedication to his sport. Before the Tokyo Paralympics, he was seen spending most of his days preparing for the Games and appeared to be “addictive” during practices. He was described by his roommate Yan Qing as a person with strong self-discipline. “If one of his moves is not up to his standard, then he will repeat practicing it over and over again,” Yan told media.However, the very serious athlete has a different side outside of practice. In everyday life, Li is an optimistic young man with a cheerful personality who can light up the dull social atmosphere and make people laugh.After a photo of Li showing a bright smile while holding his medal began making the rounds on social media, Chinese netizens began calling him a “Sunshine Boy,” saying that they hope his optimistic mentality can encourage more disabled people to pursue their dreams. “Even though I’m visually impair ed, I’m encouraged by him as he proves that we disabled people are not flawed, but just special, and we are capable too. His performance proves that we can win over the fate, we are capable in coping with life struggles, sometimes even more capable than people who never taste life’s bitterness.” Zhu Jin, a sports fan who is also disabled, told the Global Times.4. According to paragraph 2, what can we learn about Li Hao?A．Li was unhappy about making it to the semifinals.B．Li attended the Paralympic Games for the first time.C．Li was narrowly defeated by his Ukrainian opponent.D．Li was expected to bring home a silver or bronze medal.5. What contributes to Sunshine Boy’s winning the championship?A．His ability and addiction B．His self-control and friendlinessC．His determination and charity D．His devotion and positive mindset6. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A．The disabled find it difficult to fight life challenges alone.B．It is Li’s bright smile that drives people to chase their dream.C．Physically challenged people are greatly inspired by Li’s optimism.D．Men with disability have limited control over life’s bitterness.7. Where would this passage most probably appear?A．A news website B．A textbookC．A brochure D．A science magazineChewing a sugar-free gum daily reduced premature births in a large study in Malawi, Africa. The new findings were inspired by relevant past research on oral (口腔的) health. The gum contains xylitol (木糖醇)— a chemical that can boost oral health — in place of regular sugar.Among women who chewed the xylitol gum, 549 out of 4, 349 pregnancies, or 12.6 percent, delivered babies early, researchers reported February 3 at the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine’s Annual Pregnancy Meeting. That’s a 24 percent reduction compared with the group who didn’t receive the gum. Among those women, 878 out of 5, 321 pregnancies, or 16.5 percent, of the babies were born before 37 weeks. The oral health of gum users also improved. About 4,000 of the women had an initial tooth exam and a later checkup. The women who chewed the gum had less tooth disease, a condition in which the tissue surrounding the teeth becomes infected, compared with those who didn’t get the chewing gum.“The findings are very encouraging,” says Kim Boggess, a medicine specialist at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. “The researchers are approaching a very complex problem in a low-resource area by trying to use a low-tech, easily applied way. It would take more research to see if this could work in other settings,” she says.Babies born early can have complications (并发症) that damage their lungs, nerve development and more, with long-term health risks, and they are more likely to die in their first year of life than average babies.The team also wants to track the nerve development of the children born early and those born on time. “No matter how simple the method may be, we are still glad to make a difference in somebody’s life,” says the team leader Kjersti Aagaard, a medicine specialist at Texas Children’s Hospital, “and digging into the reason why chewing the xylitol gum has such benefits deserves our further commitment.”8. What is the function of paragraph 2?A．To offer statistics. B．To give examples.C．To refer to past research. D．To analyze the causes.9. What is the benefit of chewing a sugar-free gum?A．It can stop teeth from bleeding.B．It can help oral tissues against infection.C．It can reduce women’s long-term health risks.D．It can prevent early-born babies from complications.10. Why are the findings encouraging according to Kim Boggess?A．They can be universally applied around the world.B．They solve a complex problem in low-resource areas.C．They employ modern technology to solve the problem.D．They provide an easy-to-access way to tackle problems.11. What is Aagaard’s attitude towards further research on this subject?A．Cautious. B．Disapproving. C．Uninterested. D．Positive. Whether you call them feral pigs, boar, swine, hogs, or even razorbacks, wild pigs are one of the most damaging invasive species on Earth, and they’re infamous for damaging agriculture and native wildlife.A big reason they’re so harmful is that they uproot soil at vast scales, like tractors ploughing a field. Our new research, published recently, is the first to calculate the global extent of this and its effects on carbon emissions.Our findings were horrible. We discovered the total area of soil uprooted by wild pigs is likely the same area as Switzerland. This releases 4.9 million tonnes of carbon dioxide each year the same as one million cars. The majority of these emissions occur in Oceania. A huge portion of Earth’s carbon is stored in soil, so releasing even a small part of this into the atmosphere can have a huge impact on climate change.It’s estimated that wild pigs destroy more than US$74 million worth of crops and grass each year in Australia, and more than US$270 million in just 12 states in the USA. Wild pigs have also been found to directly threaten 672 vertebrates (脊椎动物) and plant species across 54 different countries. This includes Australian ground frogs, tree frogs and multiple orchid species which are imperiled, as pigs destroy their habitats and hunt them for food.Their geographic range is expected to expand in the coming decades, suggesting their threats to food security and biodiversity will likely worsen. But here, let’s focus on their contribution to global emissions.One such study was conducted for three years in hardwood forests of Switzerland. The researchers found wild pigs caused soil carbon emissions to increase by around 23% per year. Similarly, a study in the Jigong Mountains National Nature Reserve in China found soil emissions increased by more than 70% per year in places disturbed by wild pigs.12. Why are wild pigs unpopular according to the text?A．For their threat to humans. B．For their damaging effects.C．For their consuming too much food. D．For their bad effects on tractors.13. What danger do wild pigs pose by uprooting soil?A．Leading to dry and acid soil.B．Damaging the source of drinking water.C．Increasing too much soil carbon emissions.D．Reducing the area of agricultural land greatly.14. Which can replace the underlined word “imperiled” in paragraph 4?A．In pain. B．In alarm. C．In chaos. D．In danger.15. What may be the best title for the text?A．The threat of wild pigsB．Wild pigs on a global scaleC．A new problem faced by farmersD．The impact of emissions on climate changeWith big features around the corner like 5G, it may be quickly approaching the time to upgrade your device. 16Price is important — The newest devices are all starting to cross the four-digit price range, but that doesn’t mean you need to spend big to get quality. 17 Non-flagship devices for the current year can also offer all of the features you’re looking for and make some savings too.What will you be using your device for? — You need to identify your needs to understand if the price is worth paying. Most devices come equipped with packed features like cameras for use or with social media and bigger screens that have been useful for many gaming options. So be clear about what you’ll be using your device for. 18 That will certainly help cut costs down, especially the big-ticket items that are only aimed towards a certain audience.19 — With rising prices, many of us are holding on to our devices for a longer period of time, but months of updates and file storage can slow devices down, and internal hardware could fall behind in times too.

无糖饮料发胖英文阅读理解

无糖饮料发胖英文阅读理解The Truth About Sugar-Free Drinks and Weight Gain.In the modern era of health consciousness, sugar-free drinks have become a popular choice among those seeking to avoid excess sugar intake. The assumption is that these drinks can help prevent weight gain, given that they lack sugar, a primary calorie source. However, the relationship between sugar-free drinks and weight gain is more complex than it seems.Firstly, it's important to understand that weight gain occurs when the body consumes more calories than it burns. Sugar, being a high-calorie food, can contribute to weight gain if consumed in excess. Sugar-free drinks, by removing sugar, seem to eliminate this risk. However, the body's response to sugar-free drinks is not entirely straightforward.For starters, many sugar-free drinks are sweetened withartificial sweeteners. These compounds provide a sweettaste without the calories, leading many to believe theyare a healthy alternative. However, studies have shown that artificial sweeteners can affect the body's perception of sweetness, potentially leading to an increased desire for sugary foods. This phenomenon is known as "rebound effect," and it can lead to increased sugar intake and, subsequently, weight gain.Moreover, drinking sugar-free drinks may not reduce overall calorie intake as much as people think. If someone drinks a sugar-free soda instead of a regular one, they may still consume other calorie-dense foods to compensate for the lack of sugar. In other words, sugar-free drinks maynot be a magic bullet for weight loss.Additionally, sugar-free drinks may affect hunger and satiety signals in the body. Drinking them may not provide the same satiety as regular drinks, leading people to eat more later. This can contribute to a higher overall calorie intake and, potentially, weight gain.It's also worth noting that weight gain is not the only health concern related to sugar intake. Excess sugar can lead to various chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Even though sugar-free drinks may help reduce sugar intake, they cannot replace a healthy diet and regular exercise.In conclusion, sugar-free drinks may seem like a healthy alternative to regular sugary drinks, but they are not a panacea for weight gain. While they can help reduce sugar intake, they may not have the desired effect on weight loss due to various factors, including the rebound effect, compensation in other foods, and altered hunger signals.To maintain a healthy weight, it's important to focus on a balanced diet, regular exercise, and portion control. Sugar-free drinks can be part of a healthy lifestyle, but they should not be relied upon as a sole solution for weight gain. A holistic approach, including a variety of healthy habits, is key to maintaining a healthy weight and preventing chronic diseases.。

These people dress as characters from movies, TV shows, films and comic books. However, there is a lot more to a good cosplayer than what people see!Some cosplayers buy their costumes, while others make them at home. Making a costume takes a lot of time and skill. You have to be a propmaker (道具制作师) and artist… and this is only the basics.It may not be obvious, but computers are important for cosplay. Many cosplayers write code (代码) for their costumes to light up, make sounds or operate electronically. Cosplayers with light-up costumes are also computer programmers! When I was making a pair of wings, the structure of the wing frame defied (违抗) the laws of gravity (重力) and demanded scientific numbers from mathematics equations (公式). I pulled out a physics textbook and started my wings. When I finished, I handed in my cosplay at school as a research project and actually got academic credits (学分) for it! Sometimes, a cosplayer is also a researcher, physicist and engineer!Even for cosplayers that don’t make their costumes, a lot of skills go into a good cosplay. Every cosplayer is a make-up artist and a hairstylist. Have you ever styled a wig? It’s a hug fuss! Anyonethat can make a wig deserves a round of applause (鼓掌).31. According to the material, we can know that ________.A．the article is from School Life sectionB．the photo was provided by TEENSC．TEENS reported the news on May10th, 2022D．the costumes were all made by the cosplayers32.

You might describe the costumes as ________.A．simple and plain B．popular and easyC．creative and fantastic D．superb and high-techHave you ever bought Genki Forest (元气森林) sparkling water because it’s advertised as “sugar-free”? It’s popular among students. The company recently apologized for a misleading advertisement.The company said the drinks are “sucrose-free”(零蔗糖), butthis is not the same as “sugar-free”. Now the company has changed the words “sugar-free” to “low sugar” on the bottles.In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar, such as fructose (果糖) and sugar alcohol (糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are used as sweeteners (甜味剂). They offer little energy, but a small amount of them can make drinks taste sweet. That’s why diet drinks like Genki Forest are popular among people who want to lose weight.However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet-tasting things, it sends your brain a “sweet signal”. Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the diet soft drink has little energy, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food. According to China Daily, drinking too many diet drinks might lead to obesity (肥胖) and type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Would you like to try diet drinks now?36. Why did Genki Forest apologize?A．For not having sugar in its drinks. B．For misspelling words on its packaging.C．For advertising its products D．For making too manyincorrectly. advertisements.37.

What do studies show about sweeteners?A ．They cause the brain to stop receiving signals.B ．They provide enough energy for people.C ．They stop the body from getting energy.D ．They probably make people feel hungrier.39. According to the passage, drinking diet drinks can be __________.A ．funB ．harmfulC ．refreshingD ．fashionable40. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A ．Sweeteners can make drinks sweeter.B ．Genki Forest is popular with people.C ．Diet drinks can help people lose weight.D ．Think twice about the diet drink trend.Jacob was a driver sent to pick me up for a three-hour drive.

糖不甩英文作文

糖不甩英文作文Here is a 1,000 word essay on the topic "Sugar-free":Sugar-free living has become an increasingly popular lifestyle choice in recent years as more and more people become aware of the negative health impacts of excessive sugar consumption. From obesity and type 2 diabetes to heart disease and dental problems, the risks associated with a diet high in added sugars are well-documented. As a result, many individuals are seeking to reduce their sugar intake and adopt a sugar-free or low-sugar diet.One of the primary drivers behind the sugar-free movement is the growing concern over the obesity epidemic. Obesity rates have skyrocketed globally, with the World Health Organization reporting that in 2016, over 1.9 billion adults were overweight, and of these, over 650 million were obese. This dramatic rise in obesity is largely attributed to the overconsumption of calorie-dense, nutrient-poor foods, including those high in added sugars.Numerous studies have shown a clear link between sugar intake and weight gain. When we consume sugary foods and beverages, the excess calories are often stored as fat, leading to gradual butsubstantial weight increases over time. Additionally, sugar has been found to be highly addictive, triggering the release of dopamine in the brain's reward system and leading to cravings and overconsumption. By eliminating or significantly reducing sugar from the diet, individuals can better manage their weight and potentially avoid the host of health problems associated with obesity.In addition to weight management, a sugar-free lifestyle can also have a positive impact on metabolic health. The overconsumption of added sugars, particularly in the form of fructose, has been linked to the development of insulin resistance, a precursor to type 2 diabetes. When the body becomes resistant to insulin, the hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar levels, it can lead to chronically elevated blood glucose and the eventual onset of diabetes. By cutting out or severely limiting sugar intake, individuals can help improve their insulin sensitivity and reduce their risk of developing this chronic, life-altering condition.Moreover, a sugar-free diet can have benefits for cardiovascular health. Added sugars have been shown to contribute to the buildup of harmful cholesterol and triglycerides in the bloodstream, which can increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. By eliminating or drastically reducing sugar consumption, individuals can help lower their levels of these detrimental blood lipids and improve overall heart health.Beyond the physical health benefits, a sugar-free lifestyle can also have a positive impact on oral health. Sugary foods and drinks are a primary driver of tooth decay, as the bacteria in the mouth feed on the sugar and produce acids that erode tooth enamel. This can lead to cavities, gum disease, and even tooth loss if left untreated. By cutting out sugar, individuals can help prevent these oral health issues and maintain a healthy, vibrant smile.Adopting a sugar-free lifestyle is not without its challenges, however. Many processed foods, from baked goods and cereals to condiments and beverages, contain added sugars, making it difficult to avoid them entirely. Additionally, sugar is often hidden under a variety of names, such as high fructose corn syrup, sucrose, and maltose, making it crucial for individuals to read nutrition labels carefully.To overcome these obstacles, those committed to a sugar-free lifestyle must be prepared to make significant changes to their dietary habits. This may involve cooking more meals at home, where they can have greater control over the ingredients, as well as seeking out sugar-free alternatives for their favorite foods and snacks. It may also require a period of adjustment as the body and taste buds adapt to the reduced sugar intake.Despite the challenges, the benefits of a sugar-free lifestyle arenumerous and compelling. By eliminating or drastically reducing sugar consumption, individuals can improve their overall health, manage their weight, and reduce their risk of developing chronic diseases. Furthermore, a sugar-free diet can have a positive impact on oral health, and contribute to a general sense of well-being and vitality.As the awareness of the dangers of excessive sugar consumption continues to grow, the sugar-free movement is likely to gain even more momentum in the years to come. For those willing to make the necessary lifestyle changes, the rewards of a sugar-free existence can be truly transformative, leading to improved physical health, increased energy, and a renewed sense of control over one's dietary choices. Ultimately, the decision to adopt a sugar-free lifestyle is a personal one, but the potential benefits make it a choice worth considering for anyone seeking to optimize their health and well-being.。

Most marigolds are golden or brown. It is very hard to finda white one.Twenty years later, the company received a letter from an old woman. She sent 100 white marigold seeds (种子) along with the letter.The woman was a fan of flowers. When she first heard the company's notice 20 years ago, shegot very excited. She thought she could grow her own white marigolds. But her children doubted her.She knew nothing about seeds' genes(基因), after all. So her dream of growing white marigolds wasjust that - a dream.Still, she worked to make it happen. She planted some common marigold seeds and took good care of them. A year later, when the marigolds bloomed (开花), she chose one of the faintest (最淡的) flowers and took is seeds. She planted these seeds and waited another year for them to bloom.Day after day, year after year, her life changed. Her husband died, her children moved away, and many other things happened. But she kept growing all the time.Finally, after 20 years, she went out to her garden and found a marigold that was not just white –it was as white as snow.44. What did the woman's family think of her decision?A. Her children didn't believe in her.B. They helped her learn about seeds’ genes.C. They studied marigolds themselves.D. Her husband stopped her from growing flowers.45. How did she grow the white marigolds?A. By painting the golden and brown flowers white.B. By changing the marigold seeds' genes.C. By choosing seeds from the faintest flowers.D. By growing the strongest seeds.46. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. The woman loved flowers very much.B. The woman was interested in seeds' genes.C. The woman made her dream of growing white marigolds come true at last.D. The woman sent some white marigold seeds to the company twenty years later.47. What is the best title of the passage?A. Be Patient and You'll Go FarB. What Happened to the WomanC. The Woman Loved to Grow MarigoldsD. The Woman's Family Grow Manigolds for the CompanyCHave you ever bought Genki Forest (元气森林) sparkling waterbecause it's advertised as "sugar –free"? The company recently apolo-gized (道歉) for the wrong advertisement.The company said the drinks are "sucrose – free"(零蔗糖), butthis is not the same as "sugar-free". Now the company has changed thewords "sugar-free" to "low sugar" on the bottles.In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar,such as fructose(果糖) and sugar alcohol (糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are usedas sweeteners (甜味剂). They offer little energy, but a bit of them can make drinks taste sweet. That's why diet drinks like Genki Forest are popular among people who want to lose weight. They believe that they can not only enjoy sweet drinks, but also don't take in too much sugar.However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet- tasting things, your brain knows it. Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the diet soft drink has little energy, the brain will not receive what it is expecting. At this time, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food.According to China Daily, drinking too many diet drinks might lead to obesity(肥胖) and type2 diabetes(糖尿病). It's time for you to think twice about the diet drinks.48. Why did Genki Forest recently apologize?A. For not having any sugar in its drinks.B. For advertising its drinks incorrectly.C. For making too many advertisements.D. For incorrectly spelling words on its advertisement.49. What do we know about Genki Forest from Paragraph 3?A. Its drinks taste sweeter than other drinks.B. Its drinks have high levels of sucrose.C. There are sweeteners in its drinks.D. People can lose weight by drinking its drinks.50. What do studies show about sweeteners?A. They might make people feel hungrier.B. They are used more in food than drinks.C. They provide enough energy for those on a diet.D. They cause the brain to stop receiving energy.51. According to the last paragraph, drinking lots of diet drinks can be _________ .A. fashionableB. strangeC. enjoyableD. harmfulD"I t’s a waste of time, " I said when my mom told me to join Madcaps, a mothers and daughtersclub that helps charities. When she told me I had to volunteer at a homeless shelter (收容所), I thought that things could not get worse.We got there late and walked to the dirty homeless shelter, where we saw a lady shouting at theguard. He helped her solve the problem and then led us to the kitchen, where we ran into other fiveMadcaps mothers and daughters.Then homeless people started to walk in and a little girl, around 5 years old, walked up and pointed to the food I was handing out. I handed her a cold sandwich and she nodded to say thanks.She then walked over to her parents, who were seated at a large table.As she walked away, I thought about how much I had. I went to one of the top schools in SanDiego, I had a great house by the water, and I had a warm meal every night. Then I thought of howlittle she had. She probably didn’t go to school, and this is where she sleeps and eats every day. Thatlittle girl made me realize just how lucky I am.After that moment, I had a change of heart. Now, I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting.I have got over being socially awkward (困难的) and now have many friends who I often play with.I believe that if you have an open mind about things, you can learn a lot about yourself and thepeople in your community. You can make new friends and realize just how lucky you are. I believeyou can make a difference just by doing something that you don't want to do.52.

喝咖啡“不加糖”别说成nosugar，口语真的不地道！

喝咖啡“不加糖”别说成nosugar，⼝语真的不地道！咖啡“不加糖”⽤英语怎么表达？菌菌⾝边很多⼈都在减肥他们都是典型的是“⽆糖党”“⽆糖”=no sugar直译虽然⽼外能听懂但总感觉好像有哪⾥不对⼝语⾥⾯⼀般会说：sugar-free例句：Some scientists are claiming that sugar - free foods may not help us lose weight!⼀些科学家声称⽆糖⾷品可能没法帮助我们减肥！知识扩展：Sugar-free这样构成的词其实还蛮常见的，我们海外旅游常会到访的tax-free shop免税店也是以-free结尾。

咖啡“加糖”⽤英语怎么表达？很多⼩伙伴喝啥都必须加糖加糖…加糖的N次⽅真不怕甜到忧伤……加糖=add sugar这样跟服务员说他肯定也能懂，但⽼外常⽤的是：use sugar有个短语：get used to=习惯了...这⾥use sugar也沿⽤了这层意思，在⽼外听起来就是，你⽇常习惯喝加糖的咖啡，⽐add这种⽣硬的翻译，听起来地道多了。

例句：I use sugar in my coffee.我喝咖啡（习惯）加糖。

温馨提⽰：也不能⽤add表⽰“添加”可以⽤put表⽰“放……进去”Can you put that on ice？能给我加点冰吗?如果是服务员问你，要不要“加糖/加奶”加这个那个的，也⼏乎不⽤“add/put”,⽽是直接说：Would you like any milk for your coffee?您的咖啡要加奶吗？这时候你可以⽤with来回答I like my coffee with milk and sugar please.我要喝加⽜奶和糖的咖啡。

“少放糖”⽤英语怎么说？我们都知道美式咖啡偏苦喝这类咖啡，哪怕是“⽆糖党”都会要求服务员“加⼀点点糖”加⼀点点糖Easy on the sugar.请放⼀点点糖。

星巴克术语

话说今天在星巴克里研究杯子时被shots 和syrup难住了，尤其是shots，百思不得其解，上网搜索了才知道原来是指浓缩咖啡的量词。

在这里贴上星巴克里的常用英文，希望能帮到大家^^最基本的是：Americano：美式咖啡。

两SHOTS 的浓缩烘焙咖啡，然后倒入热水，调治而成。

Breve ：拿铁咖啡的一种。

用一半浓缩咖啡和一半热牛奶调成。

Cappuccino：用浓缩咖啡和泡沫牛奶调成，但要比拿铁中加入的热牛奶有更多的泡沫。

Con Panna ：意大利语，意思是―加上搅打过的奶油‖。

Cr¨me ：在星巴克，这个名词的意思是，不含有咖啡的热饮。

Demitasse：法语中―半杯‖的意思。

这里指用极小杯来装浓缩咖啡。

Doppio:意大利语，意思是双份的。

但是只用在，两SHOTS的浓缩咖啡。

比如，你可以说doppio espresso ，但是要讲Double latte 。

Dry:多奶末，少奶。

Espresso: 浓缩咖啡。

咖啡最纯，最香，最浓的状态。

Frappuccino blended beverage:星巴克特制的，美味滑爽的特调冷饮。

Grande: 星巴克里中杯的咖啡杯，第二大型号的杯子。

Half-caf: 一SHOT普通咖啡和一SHOT低咖咖啡。

Latte: 拿铁咖啡。

把热牛奶到入浓缩咖啡中，即可调出美味的拿铁咖Macchiato :意大利语，意为显著的。

比如，星巴克焦糖Macchiato。

Misto:意大利语，意思是混合的，是滴滤式咖啡（中等粗细的咖啡粉制成）和热牛奶的混合。

Mocha:摩卡咖啡：用浓缩咖啡加巧克力和热牛奶制成comQuad:加4 SHOTS 浓缩咖啡Ristretto: 从浓缩咖啡中提取出的，是浓缩咖啡中最甘甜的部分。
