Children Food Promotion and Advertising（3月27日阅读考试第1篇题源文章）Over the past 20 years rates of obesity in children have risen greatly in many countries, leading some researchers to speak of an ‘international epidemic of obesity’ (Dietz, 1998; Baur, 2002). It is estimated that one in five Australian children and adolescents are now overweight or obese (Baur, 2002). Amongst Australian children, the rate of overweight and obesity combined has more than doubled, and the rate of obesity trebled in all age groups and for both sexes, in the 10 year period from 1985 to 1995 (Magarey et al., 2001).Obese children have a 25–50% chance of progression to adult obesity (Must and Strauss, 1999) with 80% of overweight adolescents continuing to be overweight into adulthood (Dietz, 2004). The significant risk for childhood overweight and obesity to continue into adulthood and the associatedlong-term health implications confirm the importance of preventive action.A joint report prepared by the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization concluded that the heavy marketing of fast food and energy-dense micronutrient-poor foods and beverages is a ‘probable’ causal factor in weight gain and obesity in children (World Health Organization, 2003). Six techniques are commonly employed by food companies to market their products: television advertising, in-school marketing, sponsorship, product placement, internet marketing and sales promotions on food packaging (Hawkes, 2004).The marketing of such foods contributes to an obesity promoting environment that makes healthy food choices difficult and less appealing, especially for children. Children are a vulnerable market and are far less likely to be aware of the health implications of a diet high in fat, sugar and/or sodium (Hastings et al., 2003).Sales promotions on food packaging are a marketing tool used to entice consumers to buy a product or service at the point-of-sale. Food companies use a range of sales promotion techniques to market food products including premiums, prizes and price discounts. Sales promotions form a large part of the marketing environment. In the United States alone, US $233 700 million was spent on consumer sales promotions in 2002, compared with US $211 700 million on advertising in the same year (Hawkes, 2004).Children's food promotion is dominated by television advertising (Morton, 1990; Dibb, 1996; Hill and Radimer, 1997; Young Media Australia, 1997; Wilson et al., 1999; Zuppa et al., 2003; Morton and McDermott, 2004; Morton et al., 2005; Neville et al., 2005). The use of premium offers andcross-promotions with popular television, movie and sports celebrities is also now appearing as a popular way to market packaged foods to children. For example, in the US, US $3 billion is spent on packaging designed specifically for children (Institute of Medicine of the National Academies, 2004). Today's supermarket shelves contain numerous products that use children's favourite characters to market fooddirectly to children. Research has shown this ploy to be particularly effective in assisting children's slogan recall and ability to identify the product (The Henry J Kaiser Family Foundation, 2004).In September 2003, the UK Food Standards Agency published a systematic review on the topic of food promotion to children (Hastings et al., 2003). The review found that food promotion does affect the food choices and dietary habits of children, particularly in the context of food preferences and purchase behaviour (Hastings et al., 2003). They also reported that these effects operate at both brand (e.g. which chocolate bar) and category level (e.g. confectionery versus fruit) (Hastings et al., 2003). Themes of fun and fantasy or taste were commonly used to promote particular foods to children, rather than health and nutrition (Hastings et al., 2003).Although the causes and solutions of childhood obesity are multifactorial, the direct marketing of food to children is one area of concern where action is needed. The various strategies used by food manufacturers to market food products to children shape food preferences and cultivate brand loyalty that will affect future purchases (Coon and Tucker, 2002; Hastings et al., 2003).相关词汇：obesity 肥胖 adolescent 青少年 overweight 超重 adulthood 成人期contribute to 导致vulnerable 脆弱的、易受影响的 implication 牵连、影响dominate主导、支配specifically 特定的、具体的 preference偏爱 purchase 购买nutrition 营养systematic 系统的Jupiter（3月27日阅读考试第2篇题源文章）Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. Itsdiameter is 88,846 miles (142,984 kilometers), morethan 11 times that of Earth, and about one-tenth that ofthe sun. It would take more than 1,000 Earths to fill upthe volume of the giant planet. When viewed fromEarth, Jupiter appears brighter than most stars. It isusually the second brightest planet -- after Venus.Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun. Its mean(average) distance from the sun is about 483,780,000miles (778,570,000 kilometers), more than five timesEarth's distance. Ancient astronomers named Jupiterafter the king of the Roman gods.Astronomers have studied Jupiter with telescopesbased on Earth and aboard artificial satellites in orbitaround Earth. In addition, the United States has sentsix space probes (crewless exploratory craft) toJupiter.Astronomers witnessed a spectacular event in July 1994, when 21 fragments of a comet named Shoemaker-Levy 9 crashed into Jupiter's atmosphere. The impacts caused tremendous explosions, some scattering debris over areas larger than the diameter of Earth.Physical features of JupiterJupiter is a giant ball of gas and liquid with little, if any, solid surface. Instead, the planet's surface is composed of dense red, brown, yellow, and white clouds. The clouds are arranged in light-colored areas called zones and darker regions called belts that circle the planet parallel to the equator.Orbit and rotationJupiter travels around the sun in a slightly elliptical (oval-shaped) orbit. The planet completes one orbit in 4,333 Earth days, or almost 12 Earth years.As Jupiter orbits the sun, the planet rotates on its axis, an imaginary line through its center. The axis is tilted about 3¡. Scientists measure tilt relative to a line at a right angle to the orbital plane, an imaginary surface touching all points of the orbit. The layers of dense clouds around Jupiter appear in a photograph of the planet taken by the Voyager 1 space probe. The large, oval-shaped mark on the clouds is the Great Red Spot. The spot is believed to be an intense atmospheric disturbance. Image credit: Jet Propulsion LaboratoryJupiter rotates faster than any other planet. It takes 9 hours 56 minutes to spin around once on its axis, compared with 24 hours for Earth. Scientists cannot measure the rotation of the interior of the giant planet directly, so they have calculated the speed from indirect measurements. They first calculated the speed using an average of the speeds of the visible clouds that move with interior currents, except for a more rapid zone near the equator.Jupiter sends out radio waves strong enough to be picked up by radio telescopes on Earth. Scientists now measure these waves to calculate Jupiter's rotational speed. The strength of the waves varies under the influence of Jupiter's magnetic field in a pattern that repeats every 9 hours 56 minutes. Because the magnetic field originates in Jupiter's core, this variation shows how fast the plant's interior spins.Jupiter's rapid rotation makes it bulge at the equator and flatten at the poles. The planet's diameter is about 7 percent larger at the equator than at the poles.Mass and densityJupiter is heavier than any other planet. Its mass (quantity of matter) is 318 times larger than that of Earth. Although Jupiter has a large mass, it has a relatively low density. Its density averages 1.33 grams per cubic centimeter, slightly more than the density of water. The density of Jupiter is about 1/4 that of Earth. Because of Jupiter's low density, astronomers believe that the planet consists primarily of hydrogen and helium, the lightest elements. Earth, on the other hand, is made up chiefly of metals and rock. Jupiter's mix of chemical elements resembles that of the sun, rather than that of Earth.Jupiter may have a core made up of heavy elements. The core may be of about the same chemical composition as Earth, but 20 or 30 times more massive.The force of gravity at the surface of Jupiter is up to 2.4 times stronger than on Earth. Thus, an object that weighs 100 pounds on Earth would weigh as much as 240 pounds on Jupiter.The atmosphere of Jupiter is composed of about 86 percent hydrogen, 14 percent helium, and tiny amounts of methane, ammonia, phosphine, water, acetylene, ethane, germanium, and carbon monoxide. The percentage of hydrogen is based on the number of hydrogen molecules in the atmosphere, rather than on their total mass. Scientists have calculated these amounts from measurements taken with telescopes and other instruments on Earth and aboard spacecraft.These chemicals have formed colorful layers of clouds at different heights. The highest white clouds in the zones are made of crystals of frozen ammonia. Darker, lower clouds of other chemicals occur in the belts. At the lowest levels that can be seen, there are blue clouds. Astronomers had expected to detect water clouds about 44 miles (70 kilometers) below the ammonia clouds. However, none have been discovered at any level.Jupiter's most outstanding surface feature is the Great Red Spot,a swirling mass of gas resembling a hurricane. The widestdiameter of the spot is about three times that of Earth. The colorof the spot usually varies from brick-red to slightly brown. Rarely,the spot fades entirely. Its color may be due to small amounts ofsulfur and phosphorus in the ammonia crystals.The edge of the Great Red Spot circulates at a speed of about225 miles (360 kilometers) per hour. The spot remains at thesame distance from the equator but drifts slowly east and west. The zones, belts, and the Great Red Spot are much more stable than similar circulation systems on Earth. Since astronomers began to use telescopes to observe these features in the late1600's, the features have changed size and brightness but have kept the same patterns.TemperatureThe temperature at the top of Jupiter's clouds is about -230 degrees F (-145 degrees C). Measurements made by ground instruments and spacecraft show that Jupiter's temperature increases with depth below the clouds. The temperature reaches 70 degrees F (21 degrees C) -- "room temperature" -- at a level where the atmospheric pressure is about 10 times as great as it is on Earth. Scientists speculate that if Jupiter has any form of life, the life form would reside at this level. Such life would need to be airborne, because there is no solid surface at this location on Jupiter. Scientists have discovered no evidence for life on Jupiter.Near the planet's center, the temperature is much higher. The core temperature may be about 43,000 degrees F (24,000 degrees C) -- hotter than the surface of the sun.Jupiter is still losing the heat produced when it became a planet. Most astronomers believe that the sun, the planets, and all the other bodies in the solar system formed from a spinning cloud of gas and dust. The gravitation of the gas and dust particles packed them together into dense clouds and solid chunks of material. By about 4.6 billion years ago, the material had squeezed together to form the various bodies in the solar system. The compression of material produced heat. So much heat was produced when Jupiter formed that the planet still radiates about twice as much heat into space as it receives from sunlight.The impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9In March 1993, astronomers Eugene Shoemaker, Carolyn Shoemaker, and David H. Levy discovered a comet near Jupiter. The comet, later named Shoemaker-Levy 9, probably once orbited the sunindependently, but had been pulled by Jupiter's gravity into an orbit around the planet. When the comet was discovered, it had broken into 21 pieces. The comet probably had broken apart when it passed close to Jupiter.The planet Jupiter's Great Red Spot is ahuge mass of swirling gas. At its widest,it is about three times the diameter of the Earth. Image credit: NASACalculations based on the comet's location and velocity showed that the fragments would crash into Jupiter's atmosphere in July 1994. Scientists hoped to learn much about the effects of a collision between a planet and a comet.Astronomers at all the major telescopes on Earth turned theirinstruments toward Jupiter at the predicted collision times.Scientists also observed Jupiter with the powerful Hubble SpaceTelescope, which is in orbit around Earth; and the remotelycontrolled space probe Galileo, which was on its way to Jupiter.The fragments fell on the back side of Jupiter as viewed fromEarth and the Hubble Space Telescope. But the rotation ofJupiter carried the impact sites around to the visible side afterless than half an hour. Scientists estimate that the largestfragments were about 0.3 to 2.5 miles (0.5 to 4 kilometers) indiameter. The impacts were directly observable from Galileo,which was within about 150 million miles (240 million kilometers) from Jupiter. However, damage to certain of the probe'sinstruments limited its ability to record and send data.The impacts caused large explosions, probably due to thecompression, heating, and rapid expansion of atmosphericgases. The explosions scattered comet debris over large areas,some with diameters larger than that of Earth. The debris gradually spread into a dark haze of fine material that remained suspended for several months in Jupiter's upper atmosphere. If a similar comet ever collided with Earth, it might produce a haze that would cool the atmosphere and darken the planet by absorbing sunlight. If the haze lasted long enough, much of Earth's plant life could die, along with the people and animals that depend on plants.相关词汇：planet 行星solar 太阳的astronomer 天文学家spectacular 壮观的crash 猛撞、横冲直撞explosion 爆炸compose 组成、构成rotate 旋转interior 内部的magnetic 磁性的satellite 卫星collision 碰撞Scars from the crash of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 appear on Jupiter'ssurface as a series of maroon blotches in this photo.

专家解读：2010春季雅思口语难题总结
专家解读：2010春季雅思口语难题总结Part 22010年的雅思口语考试继续延续了2009年的出题风格，在考题难度上基本没有改变。
但就2010年春季的考题来看，考题出题趋势的变化还是相当明显的，而且第一，第二，第三部分的考题划分界线不再明晰可辨，很多考生反映第一部分的考题会出现第二、第三部分的相关内容。
但是，无论考题如何变化，考题中旧题的比例还是相当高的。
所以，我们要对出现过的考题做到心中有数，这样，才能在考场中有好的发挥。
2010年春的考题还是有一定的难度的，而学生们在口语考场中最重视的一直就是第二部分卡片题的回答，因为这部分的考题需要学生独立完成，第二部分考试过程中考官几乎是不发话的，所以，如果考生没有做好充足的准备，对考题不熟悉而导致在回答卡片题时有过多的停顿，一定会对考分有很大影响。
而考官又是无法给出过多提示的，所以，对于第二部分的考题，我们一定要在进考场前做到心中有数，特别是一些难题。
所以，在这里，专家将对2010年春季雅思口语第二部分中的难题做一个盘点，供烤鸭们参考。
首先，食物和烹饪一直是雅思口语中较多见的话题之一。
雅思考试对于生活的贴近可见一斑。
但是学生在这个话题上的发挥却常常不尽如人意。
可能是我们的传统教材中很少有涉及到这个话题的，因而学生对相关的词汇较为缺乏。
当然，我们在描述的时候也应尽量选取较为简单的菜肴去描述，而且最好是西式菜肴。
中式菜肴通常以种类繁多，烹饪复杂而著名，有时要把这样的菜介绍清楚已属不易。
这一类考题有以某一道菜为主要考点的：How do you cook this dish? Why is it your favorite dish? 也有以一顿丰盛的菜肴为主要考点的：What did the meal consist of? Was it made for a special occasion? Why was the meal so special? 还有一些考题问的是一些相关的信息，比如烹饪者、烹饪地点、共同进餐的人和喜欢烹饪或这道菜的理由。

雅思口语考题回顾
雅思口语考题回顾第1篇：雅思口语考题回顾1,口语第一部分问了你的*。
为什么选这*。
将来想干什么。
为什么。
yourfirstschool.你喜欢这学校不?为什么?怎么去上学的。
你喜欢看的tvprogram。
第二部分将来想去旅游的地方。
第三部分感觉跟part2我回答的没区别嘛。
想去哪。
想跟谁去。
不想跟谁去。
旅游过程中会遇到的问题。
交通方式。
现在和过去旅游的交通方式的区别。
这女老外讲英文一个字一个字往外蹦的。
头不停地点。
点的我真慌。
2.杭州part1majorpollutionhappinesspart2whatwouldyoudoifyouhaveonedayoff.3.考点，广州。
考官是个很友好的中年男子。
p2问了apersoninthenewsyouwanttomeet。
p3先问了人们收到新闻的方式有什么变化，还有国内新闻和*新闻哪个重要最后问为什么坏消息比好消息传得快4.刚考完~坐在回校的车上给雅思哥发口语回忆~攒人品啦~~考点，天津外院，rm14，考官是个棕发外国老帅哥~part1，hometown~exercise~dance~part2~一次生气的城市经历~part3~人们是否喜欢表达感情，我回答的*人不喜欢~然后问why，男人和女人的不同，小孩是否该学习表达感情，是否有人善于识别别人的情感~还有想未完，继续阅读 >第2篇：雅思口语回答考官问题的方法窍门窍门一：凡事尽量说好的一面在回答问题时应表现正面的态度。
考生通常都应该诚实地回答所有问题，但有一些问题，回答的时候还是应该保持比较正面，尽量说好的一面。
例如问你对自己家乡的印象，就算你真的认为非常不堪，也不应说出口。
一句话，不要plain。
窍门二：*须清晰而详细千万不要刻意用一些深奥或复杂的字来解释事情。
不要以为这样可以加深考官的印象，一个简洁明了的*绝对比一个复杂难懂的*好。
但要指出的是，简单的*并不等于短*，*太短会使整个面试有太多的停顿，而考官也要大伤脑筋多想问题，你面临的问题也就会更多。

2010年雅思口语考试回顾与2011年预测(1)
2010年雅思口语考试回顾与 2011年预测在 2010年即将成为历史的时刻, 北京新东方 VIP 中心雅思口语名师邀您一起“ 温故而知新” 。
回首 2010——周期变化回顾 2010年的雅思口语考试,依然是时而风云变幻,时而风平浪静。
在今年的四月、九月的变题革命中, 相信有不少可怜的烤鸭都被突如其来的新题搞得措手不及。
每一年, 雅思口语考试都会有一些周期性的变化, 小变化为 4个月一变, 大变化经常出现在每年的四月和九月。
而每次在大变化之后的几个月里, 题目就都会相对的固定,不会有太多变动。
今年也是如此,在四月出现了不少新题,而从五六月开始, 一直到八月, 题目都相对稳定。
直到九月, 又出现了一次大的变动, 出现了很多新题, 但是十月到十二月就一直风平浪静。
所以十二月的最后一场考试, 被很多老师和烤鸭们看作是本年度最简单的一场考试, 因为题目几乎全部都是最近考过的。
展望 2011——变题迫在眉睫对于准备 2011年初考试的烤鸭们,一月份的考试是一个小考验,因为圣诞长假过后, 又是一个四个月周期的开始, 一月份很有可能会出现少量新题。
但是烤鸭们可以放心的是, 即使是出现新题, 也不会一下子全部变成新的, 而只是少量。
因此,对于备战明年年初的考试,把年底的题目准备好是非常重要的一步。
第一部分:变化不多,难度不大口语第一部分的变化, 革新会更多体现在喜好与个人习惯的问题上, 比如说喜不喜欢读书啊,去不去博物馆啊,喜不喜欢购物啊,有很多内容还是 2010年末的,也会出现一些新的话题。
但是学习、工作还有家乡这些个“ 四季常青” 的场景话题肯定是会考到的, 所以烤鸭们应该把这些场景都好好练熟! 对于那些会创新的喜好和个人习惯题,则可以用咱们雅思 VIP 课上所讲的方法来应对,应该难度都不大!第二部分:部分新题,大同小异口语第二部分, 则是每一场考试的热门, 也是最有可能发生变化的地方。
一些已经考了无数次的老题也许会退出历史舞台, 或者说不再那么高频地出现, 比如modern building、 traditional story、 a wild animal等等。
深度揭秘2010年雅思口语考试最新命题趋势和题库
深度揭秘2010年雅思口语考试最新命题趋势和题库-----------剑桥大学学者吴慧冬和剑桥考试委员会联合透析雅思口语教学一直是我的主业，在08到09年间我教出了2个全国口语第一名成绩，一个8分一个8.5分，2位同学考上剑桥大学，3位考上牛津大学，还有很多同学通过优秀的口语成绩拉平均分最后总分上6.5获得名校OFFER，这也是为何剑桥会邀请我去访问，在我英国4个月的名校访问中，收到无数烤鸭们和同行们的来信希望我能像10多年前胡敏老师那样获得权威雅思资料帮助国人提高真正的英语水平，当年胡老师开拓了历史，让国人第一次接触雅思考试。
10多年后的今天我作为访问学者来到剑桥，在剑桥大学Leslie副校长的引荐下，我有幸和剑桥大学考试委员会全球运营总监和雅思课题经理Dr. Rod以及几位考试委员会的老师们结缘, 一同探讨剑七和2010年雅思考试最新的改革趋势等热点问题并且获取了2010年最新的考试趋势和内部资料，并借此机会和他们近距离的交流了我的多年来关于雅思教学方法的一点研究心得；“TSE和3D雅思口语快速突破法”"雅思口语和作文笔记法"等。
从剑桥考试中心获得内部资料包括听说读写中，研究发现最新的2010年考题量大，有变化，变化不在于难度，在于形式，一位剑桥大学考试中心的老师在会上跟我表明中国学生太会背题，1加1等于2都知道，当我们把题目变成2减1的时候，部分学生就可能不知所云。
不断的多样化才可以选拔出综合能力的人才。
尽管这样，我花了一个多月的时候整理了听，说，读，写四个题库，口语话题有规律，听力场景有规律，阅读题型有规律，写作话题有规律，而我已经把这些规律和重点考题找出来，由于资料太多，篇幅有限，我会分多次与同学们分享，希望同学们按照我在课上所讲过的TSE方法一一攻破，并且参考我马上发布的剑桥考试中心老师和我一同撰写的参考答案，那就Impossible is nothing. 非常感谢剑桥考试委员会老师们提供的资料和帮助。
