plot,characters, dialogue and themes. then there are the technical aspects the camera work, cuttings and special effects. and there are many other things, like the credits, musical score and the

americans struggle with watching their weight, while the french, who consume rich food, continue to stay thin? now a research by cornell university suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. researchers conclude that the french tend (易于) to stop eating when they feel full. however, americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite tv show is over.according to dr. joseph mercola, a health expert, the french see eating as an important part of their life style. they enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while americans see eating as something to be squeezed (挤出) between the other daily activities. mercola believes americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. so they keep eating long after the french would have stopped. in addition, he points out that americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. the french, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.after a visit to the united states, mireille guiliano, author of french women dont get fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.in spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting french eating habits. today the rate of obesity - or extreme overweight - among adults is only 6%. however, as american fast food gains acceptance and the young reject (拒绝) older traditions, the obesity rate among french children has reached 17% - and is growing.33.in what way are the french different from americans according to dr. joseph mercola?a. they go shopping at supermarkets more frequently. b. they regard eating as a key part of their life style.c. they squeeze eating between the other daily activities.d. they usually eat too much canned and frozen food.34. this text is mainly about the relationship between _.a. children and adults b. americans and the frenchc. life style and obesity d. fast food and overweight35. where does this text probably come from?a. a health report b. a book review c. a tv interview d. a food advertisement第二节
