our way to lunch she asked me “do you think that drinking diet soda makes you fat?”“depends on whom you ask,” i said. last year, researchers from the university of texas health science center in san antonio reported that adults who drink diet soda did not lose weight. they were actually more likely to become overweight than those adults who did not drink soda at all or those that drink regular soda. in fact, the more diet soda consumed, the more likely someone would become overweight. to be specific, there was a 41% increase in the risk of being overweight for every can or bottle of diet soda consumed daily.in this study, researcher sharon fowler followed over 600 normal weight adults ages 25-64 over a seven to eight year period of time. she has a number of theories as to why weight gain may be a result of drinking a zero-calorie beverage:1.artificial sweeteners may affect your bodys ability to judge how many calories you consume. when no calories are consumed, the body may continue to crave(渴望) what it expected and could lead to overeating.2. some people give up regular sodas to justify their favorite dessert and still take in too many calories. a regular soda contains about 150 calories while your dessert may be double that in calories easily.3. for others who were gaining weight already, switching to diet soda wasnt enough to stop the gain.since her first piece of research, fowler has tracked another 2000 people with similar results. do the faux sweet products induce people to want more sweets? fowler suggests that perhaps its not the soft drinks themselves that cause weight gain but that there is some link between diet soda drinking and overweight.64.why do people give up regular soda and take diet one according to fowlers research?a. some want to gain weight. b. some want excuses to have dessert.c. some mistake diet soda as no-calorie drink.d. diet soda can help people lose weight. 【参考答案】6467、bbda 阅读理解-buntil last summer i had a very comfortable life: winter vacations skiing and summer cruises. my parents spent a lot of money on a private school, so they could get me into a competitive middle school. everything was about tomorrow, next year, my graduation. we never had to worry about today.before last summer i never thought much about the people in the world who live day to day, every day, whose lives are controlled by poverty and hunger.

comfortably in the u.s., ive never had to worry about my dinner, and even though this whole process was only a simulation, it changed my life. now i believe in doing whatever i can to help find practical ways to defeat hunger. so ive become president of roots and shoots, a group working to improve local environments for people and animals. im also working to create a program at my high school called the “safe passage” trip to help young people in the guatemala city dump. and ive got plans to do more.im often thinking of laboring in the hot sun and the millions who still do. now, i
