Unit 5 The power of nature learning about language课时作业阅读理解(满分40分,限时35分钟)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AThe holidays are about family and many other things depending on what your family believes. They are also about turkey, ham, pumpkin pies, apple pies and so much more. So, how do you keep from eating too much and gaining too much weight during the holidays?Make a plan for what you'll eat.While there is absolutely no reason to try to lose weight during the holidays, it is possible to attempt not to gain any excess weight during the holidays. The key is to map your eating schedule out. Don't overeat, but still enjoy the holidays. If you know you will be eating at two different places within a few hours, eat small amounts at both.You can still enjoy all of your favorite holiday foods, simply cut back on your serving sizes so that you can enjoy them all. There are a ton of tasty foods to eat, but that doesn't mean you can't cut back on how many pumpkin pies you eat!Do things to beat stress.The holidays can be stressful. Stress can release cortisol (皮质醇) in your body, which is one of those things that add to weight gain. That is why it is important to do things that help you beat stress during the holiday season. Take up yoga or just take some time out of every day to relax.Don't let the holidays interrupt your workout.Another great way to beat stress is to keep up your fitness routine during the holidays. Sure, the holidays are a busy time, but you just need to get creative about them.When you're doing your Christmas shopping power walk (暴走) through the malls and department stores, you'll get some good cardio (有氧运动) and you'll raise your heart rate, which means your brain will be triggered to release some endorphins, which are happy hormones and help lift your mood.Don't let the holidays add to your waistline. Instead, be in control and you will make it through the holidays without excess weight you'll have to work off next year.语篇解读:本文主要介绍了保持健康的几种方法。

A tornado appears as a rotating,funnel(漏斗)-shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with whirling winds that can reach 300 miles per hour. Damage paths can be over one mile wide and 50 miles long. Every state is at some risk from this disaster.Some tornadoes can be seen clearly, while rain or nearby low-hanging clouds obscure others. At many times, tornadoes develop so rapidly that little, if any, advance warning is possible.Before a tornado hits, the air may become very still. A cloud of debris(散片) can mark the location of a tornado even if a funnel can not be seen. Tornadoes generally occur near the edge of a thunderstorm, when the strong wind may die down. It is not uncommon to see clear, sunlit skies behind a tornado.The following are facts about tornadoes:☆The average forward speed of a tornado is 30 MPH,but may also vary from still to 70 MPH. Debris is picked up or a cloud forms in the funnel.☆The average tornado moves from southwest to northeast, but tornadoes have been known to move in any direction. Tornadoes are most often reported east of the Rocky Mountains during spring and summer months.☆Tornadoe s can happen together with tropical storms and hurricanes as they move onto land. Waterspouts are tornadoes that form over water.☆Peak tornado season in the southern states of America is March through May; in the northern states, it is late spring through early summer. Tornadoes are most likely to occur between 3 p. m. and 9 p. m., but can occur at any time.1.From the passage, we can learn that tornadoes come from ________.A.hurricanes B.great heatC.thunderstorms D.sandstorms2.What does the underlined word “obscure” probably mean?A.hide B.reduceC.produce D.raise3.Which of the following scene may not be seen before the coming of a tornado?A.The wind may die down.B.A clear and sunlit sky may appear.C.The air may become still.D.Its position may be marked by clouds.4.When a tornado happens, ________.A.it can only be seen in the late of the dayB.it only moves from southwest to northeastC.it may form on the surface of sea waterD.it often reaches the speed of 70 MPH5.The passage makes us believe that ________.A.warnings about tornadoes are well developed in many countries B.of all the natural disasters, tornadoes often cause the biggest damage C.tornadoes are mostly seen in the southern states of AmericaD.tornadoes may strike so quickly that there is often little or no warning答案与解析:1.解析:细节理解题。

Ⅰ阅读理解AAna Lizana works for the East Anglia ONE project—the largest offshore wind farm in Europe, made up of 102 turbines(涡轮) and powering around 500,000 homes. It’s expected to be the model for offshore wind farms around the UK. A journalist is interviewing her.Journalist: You’ve had great career development. How did that happen?Ana: My excellent female engineer manager taught me to be disciplined(训练有素的) and organised at work. I’m proud of being one of the few female electrical engi neers on the project but all the women are from Spain. Scottish Power found it difficult to acquire female electrical engineers from the UK. In Spain, the industry is more equal because the numbers of boys and girls who study engineering are the same.Journalist: What do the pupils ask when you visit them?Ana: The schoolchildren ask me about my salary, because most of them want to be lawyers or doct ors or do economics for banking. Girls in the UK don’t regard engineering as an opportunity. I tell them that I enjoy what I’m doing and that we provide and generate electricity(发电) for everybody.Journalist: What’s the worst thing that has gone wrong?Ana: For a tight programme, the worst thing is when we lose time. That can be the most stressful. My responsibility is about making sure it’ll be on time and is ready.Journalist: How do you feel at weekends?Ana: Tired! This project is a full marathon. You cannot work every day at 100pc but you need to try to be at 80pc. The weekend is all about rest and filling myself with new energy.Journalist: What is the most satisfying thing about your work?Ana: To know that you are creating a project that can generate electricity just by using wind. You are working on something great and being useful, and sharing knowledge with colleagues.【解题导语】本文为访谈类应用文。

人教版英语选修6课时作业Unit5Thepowerofnature单元综合
Unit 5 单元综合ASeeing a volcano erupt (喷发)is a wonderful experience,and you can really feel the beat by climbing to the summit(山顶)of Pacaya for a closeup view. There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua. Giving travellers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful.Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua,a beautiful city with many colourful houses along its old streets that are turned into artworks during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you e to Antigua, you won't miss the Pacayatour panies.But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 metres high and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly onestepforward and twostepback movements. As you climb, you hear the dull sounds of eruptions high above. Steaming, hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit: the McKenney Cone(火山锥). Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone, the road turns to the left and up to the relative safety of the old, inactive summit.Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for I sunset and the full contrast between the erupting red lava(溶$) and the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is extremely exciting. The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the volcano. For you, too, it is time to get down.1. What is the main purpose of this passage?A.To attract tourists to Pacaya.B.To describe the beauty of Pacaya.C.To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.D.To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.2.Climbing to the McKenney Cone,people will _____.A.walk directly to the active summitB.hear the continuous loud noise from aboveC.make greater efforts than to other summitsD.see a path lined with remains of earlier eruptions3.Many tours are timed for people to _____.A. get down the mountain in time when night fallsB. avoid the smell from the upwind direction of the coneC.enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening skyD.appreciate the scenery of the 2,560metrehigh mountainBCan you survive an unannounced storm? Although there is expert broadcasting and we are equipped with cellphones, there're still some examples when the violent weather takes us by surprise.While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the coast of Africa giving plenty of early warning, sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day's time, endangering everyone and everything in their path.There've been oil workers trapped off the shore when sudden storms appeared. Field archeologists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. It wasn't but a few decades ago that a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rainforced flooding and had to ride out a major hurricane during a training exercise. There've been a few cases when travelers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time.Escaping from the stormthreatened areas is generally a choice for most of us—but not for all. Each year thousands of islanders across the Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without so much as a public shelter to hide in. Most ride out the storm in their homes.But there're a few things you can do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. If you're headed outdoors for a few days or weeks, you should always carry a flashlight with extra batteries, a GPS device, and a basic medical box.If you're traveling in your car, remember you may suffer from high winds. You'd better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your car. Keeping your head and your courage up isessential to survival in any type of danger. Let mon sense guide you and always be prepared for the worst.1.According to the text, most Atlantic hurricanes __________.A.form in the Caribbean SeaB e from the Gulf of MexicoC.develop off the coast of AfricaD.are from the Pacific Ocean2.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A.The bad situations of oil workers.B.People trapped by sudden storms.C.The danger of traveling on an island.D.The Texas National Guard group.3.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A.To give some advice.B.To encourage traveling.C.To underline the danger of hurricanes.D.To give some warnings.4.In which part of a website would you most probably find the text?A.Science.B.Sports.C.Life.D.Culture.CZebra crossings —the alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface —are meant to remind drivers that pedestrians may be trying to get across. Unfortunately, they are not very effective. A 1998 study done by the Department of Traffic Planning and Engineering at Sweden's Lund University revealed that three out of four drivers maintained the same speed or even sped up as they were approaching a crossing. Even worse, only 5% stopped even when they saw someone trying to get across.Now a motherdaughter team in Ahmedabad, India has e up with a clever way to get drivers to pay more attention —a 3D zebra crossing with a visual illusion (错觉).Artists Saumya Pandya Thakkar and Shakuntala Pandya were asked to paint the crosswalks by IL&FS, an Indian pany that manages the highways in Ahmedabad. The corporation was looking for a creative solution to h elp the city’s residents to cross the busy accidentprone (易出事故的) roads safely. Thakkar and Pandya, who had previously seen images of 3D zebra crossings that gave drivers the illusion of logs of wood on the streets in Taizhou, China, decided to test if a similar way would work in India.Sure enough, in the six months that the 3D crosswalks have been painted across four of the city's most dangerous highways, there have been no accidents reported! The artists say that while it may appear that the zebra crossing could cause the drivers to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind, such is not the case. Because of the way the human eye works, the illusion is only visible from a distance. As they get closer, the painting looks just like any other ordinary zebra crossing. The creators hope that their smart design will bee increasingly mon throughout India and perhaps even the world. So let's look forward to it.1.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Most drivers will slow down at zebra crossings.B mon zebra crossings don't function well.C.Drivers have to stop when approaching zebra crossings.D.About 95 % of the drivers choose to speed up when approaching zebra crossings.2.Why do drivers seeing the 3D zebra crossings slow down?A.Because the drivers consider the safety of pedestrians.B.Because the drivers don't want to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind.C.Because the drivers are afraid of being fined for breaking the traffic rules.D.Because the drivers mistake them for logs of wood on the streets.3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.The theory of the 3D zebra crossings.B.The popularity of the 3D zebra crossings.C.The shorting of the 3D zebra crossings.D.The positive effect of the 3D zebra crossings.4.What is the author's attitude towards the 3D zebra crossings?A.Approving.B.Doubtful.C.Cautious.D.Objective.DNASA scientists say they are closer than ever to finding life beyond Earth.Several leading NASA scientists spoke at a gathering on July 14th. The scientists discussed the space agency’s plan to find life in outer space.NASA continues to look for life in the solar system. That search is centered mostly on Mars and the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn. But the scientists mainly discussed the search for life outside the solar system.NASA Administrator Charles Bolden opened the talk. He said it is not probable that humans are alone in what he calls "the limitless vastness of the universe".The scientists spoke about improvements in search equipment. They noted the Kepler Space Telescope. They said the tool had been critical in expanding knowledge about exoplanets (外部行星).An exoplanet is a planet that orbits a star outside the solar system. Kepler has discovered most of the 5,000 possible exoplanets, of which almost two thousand have been confirmed.An Earthsize exoplanet orbits what is called the "habitable zone" of a star. The habitable zone is an area which could support liquid water on the exoplanet. Liquid water is considered essential for life as we know.Kepler research has led scientists to believe that there may be billions of planets in the galaxy.Sara Seager, a professor of planetary science and physics, says space scientists think it is "very likely that every single star in the Milky Way galaxy has at least one planet".Another major step toward discovery is the planned launch of three new telescopes. Officials expect to deploy (调度) the equipment starting in 2017.These telescopes will help scientists to learn if an exoplanet has atmospheric water vapor or carbon dioxide.Ms. Seager says these three telescopes will give scientists the ability to find life on other planets. But she adds they will also need luck. It is a very big universe.1.When NASA scientists say they are closer than ever to finding life beyond Earth they mean .A.they believe exoplanet life can be found in a closer planet to EarthB.they have got enough evidence that life beyond Earth existsC.they have spotted specific exoplanet life existing beyond EarthD.they are more sure than ever that they will find life beyond Earth2.It can be known that the scientists are mainly focusing on finding life .A.on Mars and Jupiter and SaturnB.on the icy moons of most planetsC.outside the solar systemD.in the solar system3.According to NASA scientists exoplanets are very important in that .A.they orbit stars outside the solar systemB.there are a large number of them in spaceC.they are located in the habitable zone of starsD.they have atmospheric water vapor or carbon dioxide4.From the passage we can learn that .A.the value of Kepler Space Telescope is to expand knowledge about exoplanetsB.scientists believe there may be more planets than stars in the Milky WayC.another three telescopes will be launched in place of Kepler Space TelescopeD.scientists believe with the help of the new telescopes they will find life beyond Earth5.The passage mainly tells us .A.NASA scientists have confidence in finding life beyond EarthB.exoplanets can help scientists to find life beyond EarthC.NASA scientists are making research into the universeD.scientists discussed the space plan to find life in outer spaceHow to cope with (应付) yes menHave you ever had someone in your organization who was always agreeable? It is a type ofperson who always agrees with everyone else.We have most likely all met a yesman at one time or another. Yesmen are eager to please, but find it very difficult to voice their opinions. So what can you do as a leader to cope with them?Talk to them. The first step is [n honest and objective (客观的) conversation about theirbehavior.start to see themselves objectively as well.opinions. Keep asking "Why?" or "How e?" Admit their views and let them know that the rest of the team is waiting to hear what they will say.Find out why they always agree. Maybe they are just very agreeable people. ④外部的) factors to have their voice heard.Tell them they need to disagree, constructively, when they have the next chance. When that time es about, don't embarrass them by putting them on the spot. Instead, ask them what they think, avoid yesno questions, and use "why" and "how e" questions to get their thoughts out there for thebenefit of the team. Thank them for their ideas.A. Ask what their opinions are.B. They should provide value for the organization.C. Or they feel like they will say something stupid.D. Even if all the ideas presented conflict with each other!E. Sometimes the men do not realize hat they agree with everything.F. Yesmen are a challenge in any organization that values individual contributions.G. This will build their confidence and allow them to continue doing what you have started in the future.When I was about seven or eight years old, I remembered going into the barn one evening where my father was doing chores. I was surprised to see him 1 his cap backwards. It looked funny.When I asked Dad why His hat was put on backwards, he 2 . There was a large water tank for the livestock that had to be filled 3 . Because it took a long time to fill, he would turn the water on and then go 4 doing other things. The 5 , of course, was that if he forgot to turn the water off, the tank would overflow, water would be 6 and it would make a mess.Then he told the 7 he had his hat turned around. When he finished his 8 and began to take off his work clothes, he would 9 that the visor (帽舌) wasn’t where it was supposed to be.

Some may have even been lifesaving. As we all know, people make mistakes and 13 things though they may try their best. Creating support systems helps us operate more 14 .

★★★★☆As we know, it is important to be honest with children. But there are some things in this world that simply aren’t 1 . Sometimes it makes sense for parents to 2 to their children.I still remember my three-year-old daughter’s face when we watched the 3 that twenty children at Sandy Hook Elementary School had been killed. After a few minutes she 4 and put her 5 arms around my legs and said, “I love you, Momma.” I was still 6 whether or not to turn the TV off when she, 7 , asked, “Momma, why aren’t those kids OK?” I just 8 that they were smart children, 9 they did something wrong and got punished.We’re not all 10 of a little lie here and there. Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and Snow White are just a few examples of 11 for parents to keep magic in the world. Magic, imagination and creativity are very essential in life, 12 for children. These stories battle against the negative aspects of the world and create 13 . In the end children will be able to 14 what is true and what was made to 14 their lives. Out of five brothers and a sister I can happily report that not one of the children Igrew up with was 16 when we discovered who all those 17 people really were.In life, a parent is the 18 of knowledge, and it is up to the parent to decide what knowledge to teach and when. There’s no 19 to tell children all about the truth. As they become 20 , they will have a better understanding of the world.1. A. user-friendly B. kid-friendlyC. reader-friendlyD. teacher-friendly2.

north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (内蒙古自治区) on the first day of the new century.According to Sun Landong,a meteorologist (气象学家) with the Lanzhou Meteorology Observatory,visibility (能见度) was less than 100 meters in Minqin,a Gansu county near Inner Mongolia,because of sand.When visibility drops to less than 1 kilometer,it is called a sandstorm.The sandstorm in Minqin blew up dust in neighboring towns,such as Baiyin,Wuwei,Jinchang and Lanzhou,the capital city of Gansu Province.Dust-laden winds also swept into Beijing.Brought by northwesterly blowing at more than 20 meters per second,dust first reached the capital’s suburbs at 7 a.m.,downtown areas at 9 a.m..The winds,which died down during the night,brought the temperature down to as low as 8℃below zero and many flights put off their planned time from the city’s airport.It is quite rare for sandstorms,which are frequent between March and June,to happen in winter,when the earth is frozen.The sandstorms in Gansu and Inner Mongolia do not necessarily mean there will be more of them in the spring than last year,when they were serious,but Beijing is taking it very seriously.It is reported that Beijing will spend 6 billion yuan (725 million dollars) in preventing sandstorms in the capital and has already set up a special team to make sure what causes them.1.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Sandstorms struck Gansu Province.B.Sandstorms happened on the first day of the new century.C.Sandstorms are very serious,compared with last year.D.The experts are trying their best to determine the causes of the sandstorms formed this year.2.Suppose the dust was 300 kilometers away from Beijing,it would reach Beijing about________ hours later if it travelled at a speed of 20 meters per second.A.4.2 B.15 C.20 D.253.Why did sandstorms begin in the winter this year?A.Because there was little snow this winter.B.Because a lot of trees have been cut down.C.Because people took few measures to control them.D.It is not mentioned in the passage.4.The author wrote the passage to________.A.tell us the environment is becoming worse and worseB.explain what measures people have taken to control sandstormsC.make people realize the need to protect the environmentD.call on us to do what we can to save the earthⅥ.阅读填空My dream ended when I was born.Although I never knew it then,I just held on to something that would never come to pass.__1__But in the morning when you wake up,they are remembered just as a dream.That is what happened to me.I always had the dream to dance like a beautiful ballerina twirling around and around and hearing people applaud for me.When I was young,I would twirl around and around in the fields of wildflowers that grew in my backyard.__2__I would dance so fast that I would forget where I was,until I would hear sounds that reminded me of where I really was.I thought that if I twirled fastereverything would disappear and I would wake up in a new place.Reality woke me up when I heard a voice saying,“I don’t know why you bother trying to dance.__3__Besides,you don’t have the talent to even be a dancer.” I remember how those words paralyzed every feeling in my body. __4__As I grew older,I began to realize that the reason why my dream was even born in the first place,was that it was something that was inside of me.__5__It’s not that I wanted it to die,but I

Experts recommend you plan your meals in advance, so you aren’t tempted when faced with less-than-healthy alternatives. But, let’s face it —planning every meal can be really hard. The average American eats almost 25 percent of their daily calories from snacking alone, and snacking is the leading cause of childhood obesity.Therefore, there are two options available: Stop snacking (hard) or snack more healthily (simple). But, for many of us, telling apart what’s "healthy" and how much to consume are two different things. After all, many nuts are considered heart healthy. But, if you don’t keep the portions in check it can seriously ruin your diet. It’s e asy to consume double or triple the serving size amount. If you’re struggling to keep you and your family’s snacking under control and healthy, you may be interested in the new online subscription store called . Theyhave a new service that focuses on healthy snacks, delivered right to your front door on a monthly basis.Here’s how it works:After you sign up on their website and provide some information about your taste preferences and any special health needs, the company sends you a box every month containing a delicious selection of healthy snacks.

By joining a club.CMillions of teenagers are in danger of putting their health at risk by getting hooked on e-cigarettes, experts warn. Leading health researchers say they are “very concerned” by the growing number of youngsters trying the devices.E-cigarettes have been marketed as a healthier alternative to smoking conventional cigarettes.But previous research shows e-cigarettes generate poisonous chemicals similar to those found in tobacco and may harm the lungs and immune system.Worryingly, researchers at Liverpool University discovered 16% of teenagers who have used e-cigarettes had never previously smoked. The experts also found e-cigarettes were “strongly related” to drinking among teenagers. Study author Prof. Mark Bellis said, “Our research suggests that we should be very concerned about teenagers accessing e-cigarettes. While debate on e--cigarettes has focused largely on whether or not they act as a gateway to tobacco cigarette use, e--cigarettes themselves contain a highly addictive drug that may have more serious and longer lasting impacts on children because their brains are still developing.”Researchers surveyed 16, 000 students aged 14 to 17 in the North West of England and asked them about their alcohol and tobacco use. They found that one in five answered yes to the question: “Have you ever bought or tried electronic cigarettes?” More males than females said they had.z*xxkOf the teenagers that had accessed e-cigarettes, 16% had never smoked, 23% had tried smoking, 12% only smoked when drinking, and 14% were ex-smokers. The research also found teenagers who drank alcohol were significantly more likely to have accessed e-cigarettes than nondrinkers.Among those who had never smoked, it was found that those who regularly have excessive (过多的) drinking were four times more likely to access e-cigarettes than those who never drink. In all of those that drink, regardless of smoking status, e-cigarette access was associated with excessive drinking and involvement with violence after drinking. The researchers said their findings suggest that teenagers who use e-cigarettes are most susceptible to other forms of substance use and risk-taking behaviors.8.How have e-cigarettes been promoted in the market?A.As a healthier substitute for traditional cigarettes.B.As a product preventing smokers from using tobacco products.C.As a device meeting the mental needs of smokers.D.As a new device promoted among youngsters.9.What do we learn from the survey made in the North West of England?A.E-cigarettes are now widely available and heavily promoted.B. The number of adult cigarette smokers is dropping at present.C. Teenagers are very knowledgeable about alcohol and tobacco use.D.E-cigarette access is linked to excessive drinking and violence after it.10.Which of the following can replace the underlined words “susceptible to” in the last paragraph?A. Greatly interested inB. Commonly accustomed toC. Deeply disappointed atD. Easily influenced by11.What's the main idea of the passage?A. Experts are concerned about excessive drinking in teenagers.B. The harm of the e-cigarettes is greater than that of alcohol.C. Teenagers are in danger of risking their health on e-cigarettes.D. Researchers are aware of smoker elated health harm.DThe Diet Zone: A Dangerous PlaceDiet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat di et, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤)instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has createdchemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.12.From Paragraph 1, we learn that ________.A. diet products fail to bring out people’s potentialB. people have difficulty in choosing diet productsC. diet products are misleading peopleD. people are fed up with diet products13.One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to _____.A. try out a variety of diet foodsB. hesitate before they enjoy diet foodsC. pay attention to their own eating habitsD. watch their weight rather than their diet14.In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means ______.A. losing weight is effortlessB.it costs a lot to lose weightC. diet products bring no painD. diet products are free from calories15.Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products ______.A. are over-consumedB. lack basic nutrientsC. are short of chemicalsD. provide too much energy第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)【解析】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
