harder. Now a new study by researchers at Penn State suggests
that the techniques that work for losing weight aren"t
necessarily the same as those that help keep you slim.
[2]First the researchers surveyed over 1,100 people who
had achieved significant weight loss and maintained ( 维持) it.
The researchers identified 36 weight-loss and weight-
maintenance practices that at least 10% of the group used.
[3]Then the researchers conducted a national telephone
survey of overweight people who had tried to lose weight and
keep it off with varying success: about 11% reported
successfully losing weight, and 21% were able to maintain that
loss for at least a year.
[4] The survey found people who ____ did so by
participating in weight loss programs, cutting back on sugar,
eating healthy snacks, not skipping meals and participating in
different types of exercise.
[5]Still,say many nutrition and obesity experts. The basic
principles of weight loss and maintenance are the same; you
have to eat a healthy diet and increase your exercise. People
who lose weight and keep it off tend to eat significantly
healthier foods and do a lot more exercise than the average
American.
[6] But what may maintain between weight-loss and
maintenance is a person"s attitude; rather than focusing on
actively losing weight in the short term. People have to start
focusing on long-term, permanent lifestyle changes and
behaviors, if they want to maintain the weight that"s been lost.
The key to success, experts agree, is motivation, not
necessarily the particulars of your weight-loss program.

charges are given for heavy use, but the solar system still makes sense for low-energy users such as
myself.
So much of Americans" carbon footprint results from buildings-about 43%, according to the U.S.
Department of Energy. I"m in a household of 1.5 (mom and 7-year-old), and we use only about 4
kilowatt hours of electricity per day, something we"ve managed through behavioral changes, such as
turning off the lights in rooms after we"ve exited, and through in-home efficiencies (效率), such as
swapping out all my light bulbs for energy-saving ones and using power boards that can turn off DVD
players, coffee makers and other electrical equipment.
Using less electricity means I can get by with a smaller, less expensive solar system that not only
covers my use but also produces a credit on my power bill. Going solar also meant my house was
upgraded with a time-of-use meter. This type of meter allows me to receive credit for the electricity I
produce during peak hours when electricity costs the most, but pay the least for the electricity during
off-peak hours, when I recharge my cell phone and laptop and perform other tasks requiring power.
The downsides are that I am tied in to the grid (电网) and still affected by power failure, and I now
have solar panels (太阳能电池板) that need to be cleaned. It"s a subject of debate, but REC Solar said
dirty panels decrease energy production by 6% to 8%.Many panel producers recommend cleaning
panels at least once during the summer. I wash mine whenever they look dirty or dotted with bird
droppings, which is about every other week.
I think $6,000 is a small price to pay, not only for panels that should produce my next 20 years of
electricity, but also for the greenhouse gases I"m not creating.
B. The tips on reducing electricity use.
C. The benefits of using solar systems.
D. The importance of protecting the environment.
B. To save time.
C. To save energy.
D. To save money.
B. disadvantage
C. disapproval
D. disagreement
B. to protect the environment
C. to make them look better
D. to avoid power failure

But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation (撤离) of an island nation-the
citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.
During the 20th century, sea level rose 8-12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland
flooding of salt water which has polluted the country"s drinking water.
Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation
suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher
surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an
international. agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions (导
致温室效应的气体排放 ) , which are a main cause of global warming. "By refusing to sign the
agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live
where their forefathers
have lived for thousands of years," Laupepa told the BBC.
Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both
countries .
Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable(易受影 响的) to rising sea levels. Maumoon
Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country
of 311,000 an "endangered nation".

model to predict how just three grams less a day would affect heart disease in the United States.
The result:10％ fewer heart attacks.8％ fewer storkes.4％ fewer deaths.11％ fewer new cases of
heart disease. And 240 billion dollars in health care savings.
Researchers found it could prevent 100,000 heart attacks and 92,000 deaths every year.
The study is in the New England Journal of Medicine. Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo at the University of
California San Francisco was the lead author. She says people would not even notice a difference in
taste with three grams, or one-half teaspoon, less salt per day. The team also included researchers at
Stanford and Columbia University.
Each gram of salt contains four hundred milligrams of sodium(钠),which is how foods may list their
salt content.
The government says the average American man eats ten grams of salt a day. The American Heart
Association advises no more than three grams for healthy people. It says salt in the American diet has
increased fifty percent since the nineteen seventies, while blood pressures have also risen. Less salt can
mean a lower blood pressure.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is leading an effort called the National Salt Reduction
Initiative. The idea is to put pressure on food companies and restaurants. Critics call it government
interference.
Mayor Bloomberg has already succeeded in other areas, like requiring fast food places in the city to list
calorie information. Now a study by the Seattle Children"s Research Institute shows that the calorie
information on the menu can influence what parents order for their children.
B. stroke
C. blood pressure
D. heart attack
B. 900,000
C. 100,000
D. 92,000
B. the American Heart Association suggests less than 3 grams of salt a day for everyone
C. Americans ate no more than 5 grams of salt per day in the 1970s
D. the less salt one eats, the healthier he will be
B. require fast food places to list salt information
C. inform people of the harm that salt does to health
D. put pressure on food companies and restaurants
B. Bloomberg is very successful in his career
C. parents must pay great attention to calorie information
D. a new study is being done about calorie information
Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word "diet"
everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet
products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for
products that harm us psychologically and physically.
Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to
admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption
(消耗) of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage
and go straight for the scale(秤)instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word "diet" in
food labels (标签).
On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie
drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don"t have to work to get results. Diet
products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance (抵
抗) and struggle.
The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the
physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them
instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients (营养成分).
Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to
produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into
diet products are potentially dangerous.
Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about
buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize
this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm
that comes from using them.
B. people have difficulty in choosing diet products
C. diet products are misleading people
D. people are fed up with diet products
B. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods
C. pay attention to their own eating habits
D. watch their weight rather than their diet
B. it costs a lot to lose weight
C. diet products bring no pain
D. diet products are free from calories
C. are short of chemicalsD. provide too much energy
a hospital, but all the advanced equipment there shows that there is nothing wrong with you.
Then, consider this: you might be in a state of sub-health (亚健康). Sub-health, also called the third
state or gray state, is explained as a borderline(界限) state between health and disease.
According to the survey by the National Health Organization, over 45 percent of sub-healthy people
are middle-aged or elderly. The percentage is even higher among people who work in management
positions as well as students around exam-week.
Symptoms include a lack of energy, depression, slow reactions, insomnia, anger, and poor memory.
Other symptoms include shortness of breath, sweating and aching in the waist and legs.
The key to preventing and recovering from sub-health, according to some medical experts, is to form
good living habits, alternate work and rest, exercise regularly, and take part in open air activities.
As for meals, people are advised to eat less salt and sugar. They should also eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, fish because they are rich in nutritional elements -- vitamins and other elements that are important to
the body.
Nutrition experts point out that it is not good to eat too much at one meal because it may cause
unhealthy changes in the digestive tract (消化道). They also say that a balanced diet is very helpful in
avoiding sub-health.
B. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should go to see a doctor and buy some medicine.
C. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should have yourself examined in foreign countries.
D. When you are in a state of sub-health, you should find out the reasons and relax yourself.
B. they have lost their living hopes
C. they have more pressure in life and work
D. they begin to get older
B. sleep more
C. form good living habits
D. take more medicine
B. cause to take place
C. keep oneself busy with
D. get tired of
