a. because different people hold different attitudes towards it. b. because it doesnt consider the differences in real working environment. c. because it has been proved to be totally wrong in real working environment. d. because it doesnt tell the truth.26. what does the underlined word “likewise” in paragraph 3 probably mean? a. similarlyb. differentlyc. approximatelyd. occasionally27. it can be inferred from what lindebaum said in the last paragraph that _. a. the findings of the study will completely change peoples belief in the end b. the findings of the study will not have any influence on the workplace c. the findings of the study wont be just a theory published in the journal d. the findings of the study will make us work negatively in the future28. what would be the best title for the passage? a. to be positive about your work b. to be negative about your work c. negativity at work probably bringing about good things d. people challenging the commonly-held beliefcover the years, brian wansink, director of the food and brand lab at cornell university, has studied such things as how far americans typically drive to buy food, how many times we refill our plates at all-you-can-eat buffets and how we organize our kitchens. in the mid-2000s he famously coined the phase “mindless eating”(and wrote a book by that name) to focus attention on all the bad dietary decisions we make without really thinking about them.his new book, slim by design: mindless eating solutions for everyday life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones. some examples:keep kitchen counters clear. no visible snack food, no bread, no nuts not even breakfast cereal. in wansinks research, “women who had even one box of breakfast cereal that was visible - anywhere in their kitchen weighed 21 pounds more than their neighbor who didnt.”trick yourself into drinking less wine. “we tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent less wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.” and the shape of the glass is not the only variable that affects how much we drink. wansink writes: “because red wine is easier to see than white wine, we pour 9 percent less red wine whenever we pour a glass.”wansink said his researchers also found that people ate less at restaurants when they sat in well-lighted areas near windows and doors, than in darker areas or in the back. they ate less if they were offered a doggie bag, or to-go box, before they got their meals: apparently the idea of getting a “free” second meal outweighed (比重要) the impulse (冲动) to clean their plates. workers who frequently ate at their desks weighed 15.4 pounds less, on average, than those who didnt. fruits and vegetables kept on the top shelf of the refrigerator were eaten at higher rates than those on lower shelves.the point, wansink says, is to consider findings like those and change your environment or habits. then you wont have to think about it: youll just eat less.29. why did brian wansink write slim by design: mindless eating solutions for everyday life?a. because he wanted people to become thin.b. because he wished to change the design of dining places only.c. because he hoped to coin a new phase “mindless eating”.d. because he intended to help people make more healthful dietary decisions.30. according to wansink, which of the following affects the amount of wine we drink _. a. the shape of wineglassesb. the color of wineglasses c. the taste of wined. the quality of wine 31. the underlined phrase “a doggie bag” in paragraph 5 probably means _. a. a bag for carrying dogsb. a box for junk food c. a container for leftoversd. a bag for carrying dog food32. whats the main idea of the passage? a. changing environment or habits of eating will help you eat less. b. eating fruits and vegetables is better for your health. c. keeping your kitchen counter clear of any food will help make you thin. d. many people eat or drink too much without paying attention to it.dthis is what a real silver dollar looks likeif you trust in the yen, the euro and the dollar . stop reading.because this is a story about the silver coin everybody wants.you read the headlines. you know that troubled economic times have put global currency on a roller coaster ride. but millions have found a smarter way to build long-term value with high-grade collectable silver. and right, those people are lining up to secure some of the last 2012 us mint silver eagles, americas newest silver eagle dollars. buy now and you can own these brilliant uncirculated silver dollars for only 38.95!you cant afford to losewhy are we releasing this silver dollar for such a remarkable price?
