But be careful what you pour down your throat. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of so-called energy (能量) drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive colour and cool name. Their nutrition (营养) lists also contains various things from vitamins to ginseng (人参). Sounds great! But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks contain high levels of caffeine (咖啡因). These drinks are typically aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much Caffeine raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited their use. The amount (数量) of caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as high as in a strong cup of coffee or strong tea. There are potential (潜在的) health dangers linked to energy drinks. Just one can of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart attacks. Teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them, an expert from the Australia Nutrition Foundation said. 59.

The energy drinks are typically aimed at young peopleC Deciding what to wear in the morning is a challenge for some people. We often worry about what others will think of us because of our clothes. But researchers are beginning to think that our clothing has an equally powerful effect on how we see ourselves.Scientists Adam Galinsky and Hajo Adams report that there is science behind our style. In their research, Galinsky and Adams had some participants(参与者) wear white lab coats similar to the ones scientists or doctors wear. Other participants wore their normal clothes. The participants took a test that measured their ability to pay attention. In the experiment, participants saw cards with different-colored words on them. They had to say the color of the word they saw, not the word itself. The people wearing the white lab coats said the correct color of the word more often.Galinsky and Adams think that the white coats made the participants feel more confident and careful. The researchers also believe that other kinds of “symbolic” clothes can influence the behavior of the people wearing them. A police officers uniform or a judges robe, for example, increases the wearers feelings of power or confidence. And in workplaces that have a dress code, “symbolic” clothes may also affect how well employees do their jobs.Fashion blogger Jessica Quirk believes that our clothes greatly affect how we feel about ourselves. According to Quirk, “There is joy and luck and confidence in what we wear.” On her blog called “What I wore,” Quirk posts a photo of what shes wearing every day. She says that people should pay more attention to what they wear. For example, we should choose a look that makes us feel more creative and happy. One way to do this at work is to “dress up for the exciting job we want,” she says, “not the boring job we have.” Another way is to wear special clothes that mean something to us. For example, Quirk wears one special pair of shoes to all her important meetings. They are her “lucky” shoes.As Quirk points outand as researchers have discoveredour clothes are “like our second skin.” The clothes we wear can affect our behavior. They can also tell the world something about us, without us having to say a word.62. What do you think paragraph 2 is mostly about?A. A description of an experiment B. The opinions of a bloggerC. A biography of two scientists D. Advice from two scientists63. What happened in Galinsky and Adams experiment?

D. why police officer feels confident.65. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The clothes we wear can affect how we feel B. The clothes we wear should be symbolicC. The clothes we wear make us feel more powerful D. The clothes we wear can affect what others think of us.DGo to church, then have a big lunch, then go out to play while mum does the housework. That was a typical (典型的) British Sunday in the 1960s. But things now could not be more different.Some British sociologists recently studied the typical British Sunday. They found that people get up later and do less housework than they did 40 years ago. They are far more likely to be out shopping or enjoying themselves than cooking Sunday lunch.Sunday mornings were busy 40 years ago. Most women caught up on their weekly housework and cooked a nice lunch. They seldom allowed themselves any “leisure” until afternoon, after the dishes were cleaned. Then there would be another rush to the table between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm for tea.But now, Britons can have brunch at the restaurant. Fewer people bother to cook themselves.“You only have two free days a week. You dont want to have to waste one because there is nothing to do but watch boring TV,” said Elizabeth Biggs, 25, a producer in London.“On Saturday you are recovering from the week,” Biggs added. “Sundays are the last chance for the weekend you want to get as much as you can out of the day before you have to go back to work.”In the past, British women usually did their shopping during the week, while the husband was at work. “Now men seem to do that as much as women,” said Jonathan Gershuny, a professor who took part in the study.Men also do more housework now on Sundays. Back in the 1960s, men were far more likely to spend Sundays out of the house at the pub or playing football before lunch.66. Many Britons have brunch at the restaurant because _.A. They have no time to cook at home. B. They get up too late.C. They wont bother to cook themselves. D. They will go to church.67. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Britons use
