Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class. Opposite to what many people believe, if you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.60.During the rest, those who were tested were given _.A. no breakfast at allB. very rich breakfastC. little food for breakfastD. different breakfast or none61.The results of the test show that_.E. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesF. breakfast has little to do with a persons workG. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfastH. those working with brains should have much for breakfast62.The passage mentions that many people believe that if you dont eat breakfast, you will _.A. lose weight B. not lose weightC. be healthier D. gain a lot of weight63.

The conductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passages to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. “You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior,” said a middle aged man.“Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company, ” said a second passenger. “Thats right,” another lady said, “I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor.” Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said, “Excuse me, but I know your name, please? Your excellent service must be praised”Before he could open his mouth, three-year-old child sitting on theYoung woman lap interrupted, “I know his name. I call him Dad.”64.

They spend nearly half their free-time watching TV. They watch more TV than women, do less homework, less charity work(慈善工作)and less childcare-but spend more time shopping, a poll(民意测验) suggests. Analysts(分析家)from Eurostat, the EUs statistical office, interviewed working men and women in 10 countries.Britain, where men devoted 49% of their free-time to the box, came a narrow second to the Hungarians with 51%. German and Norwegian men watched the least TV-just over one third of their spare time.The analysts took the average of the figures for the whole year including holidays and weekends. They broke down the average day into five categories(类)-free time, sleep, meals and personal care, travel, domestic chores(家务事) and work or study. It shows that British men have four hours and 41 minutes free time each day-20 minutes more than women. But women spend nearly double the amount of time on domestic chores than men. Almost three-and-a-half hours of a womans day is taken up with domestic work, compared to less than two hours for men.Food preparation makes up the bulk(量) of the chores, with cleaning and shopping the next time-consuming. They further broke down the free-time and domestic categories to show that men spend 137 minutes each day in front of the TV, compared to womens 114 minutes. Women spend slightly more time socializing, resting and reading than men, but slightly less time on hobbies, sport and exercise. Universally unpopular with both sexes is culture(文化)-accounting for just 2%of both men and womens leisure(休闲) time. 68According to the passage, couch potatoes refer to _.A. a kind of potatoes produced in Britain B. people spending much time sitting and watching televisionC. a kind of food offered by the English peopleD. people who like doing housework instead of watching TV69.

Men and Women in Different SituationsEOne of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informal dinner one night in the spring.

He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed uet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring. As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out of that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.
