26、On holidays you' re likely to eat and overeat between family gatherings, office parties and celebrations with friends. 【1】. Here are some tips to help you enjoy holiday food without completely changing your diet:
①. Switch to small plates.
Not only do smaller dishes fill up faster, but the same amount of food looks like more when it's on a small dish. 【2】. But whatever the size of your plate, it's most important to remember to keep it balanced: half for vegetables, a quarter for grains and a quarter for meat.
②. Measure out snacks.
Your favorite holiday movie is on. Take a minute to check the nutrition label (标签) and measure out a serving (一人份) to keep calories under control. Take one popular brand of buttered microwave popcorn for example. 【3】. But the bag contains 2.5 servings. Eat the whole thing on your own, and you'll have eaten 425 calories.
③. Divide a main dish.
Many restaurants serve far more food than one person needs in a single meal. 【4】. Or pack half your main dish to go as soon as it's served. Or choose a small-size option, if available.
④. Stop eating when you feel satisfied.
You don't have to feel too full, or force yourself to clean your plate, before putting down your fork. You're aiming for feeling no longer hungry instead of a complete fullness that indicates you've overdone it.【5】. When you're satisfied, save the rest for tomorrow.
A.Share a main dish with a friend
B.It's important for you to eat more on holidays
C.Eat slowly and pay attention to feelings of hunger
D.Studies show we tend to put on a few pounds this time of year
E.Enjoy a main dish slowly by yourself
F.So you'll be likely to serve yourself less
G.One serving is about 4 cups with 170 calories
27、As soon as you meet, or even see, a person, you form an impression of him based on his postures, gestures and facial expressions. This is why it is important to make a good first impression on the person who will be interviewing you. Within the first 60 seconds of meeting you, the interviewer will have formed an impression about what type of person you are and what kind of employee you would become, and 55% of this will be based only on your body language. Here are some tips to make that impression a good one.
First of all, relax. Think positive thoughts and you are more likely to come across as a positive, confident person during the interview. Dress smartly, as your appearance is one of the first things an interviewer will notice you. Stand up straight, and walk in with your shoulders back and your head up. Try to avoid slowing down as you walk into the room because this suggests fear and uncertainty. Shake hands with the interviewer firmly. You should have a positive handshake and a warm smile. Opening your coat or jacket as you sit down shows that you, too, are open.
Posture is important. You should be sitting well back in your seat. Sit up straight and lean forward slightly, but not too much. Sitting at too much of an angle expresses discomfort and distrust. Two of the most common defensive(防卫的)signals are crossing your arms and legs, so try to avoid them.
Another important issue is eye contact. Looking someone in the eye shows confidence in yourself and trust in the other person. However, don’t overdo it, as too much eve contact or staring will make the other person uncomfortable. Use more eye contact when listening than when talking, and when you look away, look down. Looking up at the ceiling will make you seem bored or rude.

【3】If you lean forward too much, it means .
A.you are very thrilled

C.you don’t trust others
D.you don’t have confidence
【4】Where can we read this passage?
A.In a newspaper.

28、Teenage summer camps
We helped on a nature reserve (保护区) for a week. We did different things every day, including cutting the reeds (芦苇) by the lake. Every day, we took turns to cook, in teams of five. When it was our team’s turn, we made a simple dinner of pasta and salad for everyone. Judging by the fact that there was none left, we didn’t do too badly!
—Adam
We stayed with families who had kids of our own age, and because they were on a mid - term break, they came with us on all the trips. So except when we were actually in a language class, we were spending time with our new friends. It was a great way to practice English we had been working on in the classroom.
—Oliver
Every morning we had the same breakfast, and then cleaned up the camp. When it was all completely tidy, we could head off for the day. The first time we went into the city, we were put into teams and given lists of things to spot, like statues, squares and other landmarks. With some help from the locals, my team found almost all of the things on our list and came second. We went to different museums and galleries in and around the city every day. It was a great chance to learn about another country and its history.

29、Walk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it steamy, warm, damp and thick.But if you had been there around 15,000 years ago, during the last ice age, would it have been the same? For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests might have reacted to the cold, dry climate of the ice ages, but till now, no one has reached a satisfying answer.
Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to solve global warming.Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year: equal to the total amount of CO2 given off in the UK each year.But how will the Amazon react to the future climate change? If it gets drier, will it survive and continue to draw down CO2? Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.
Unfortunately, collecting information is incredibly difficult . To study the past climate, scientists need to look at fossilized pollen (花粉) kept in lake mud.Going back to the last ice age means drilling down into lake sediments (沉淀物), which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery . There are very few roads and paths, or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes.Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest, but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled (未取样).So far, only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon forest reacts to climate change.
【1】How do scientists study the past climate change?
A.By predicting the climate change in the future.
B.By drilling down deep into land sediments.
C.By taking samples from rivers in the Amazon.
D.By analyzing fossilized pollen in lake mud.
【2】What is needed for drilling down into lake sediments?
A.The latest helicopter.
B.The special equipment.
C.The light machinery.
D.The narrow path.
【3】What is the purpose of writing the passage?
A.To attract more people’s attention to CO2.
B.To call on people to protect rainforests.
C.To inform people of how scientists work on rainforests.
D.To warn people to stay away from the danger of rainforests.
【4】The best title for the text may be_______.
A.Mystery of the Rainforest
B.Climates of the Amazon
C.The History of the Rainforest
D.Changes of the Rainforest

31、Directions: Complete the following passages by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
The elementary means of communicating with other people is conveying messages by voice. This fact is widely acknowledged and we recognize the voice as a(n) 【1】 characterizing the identity of a person. The array of voices is immeasurable as no two are exactly similar. They can be nasal, resonant or shrill produced in accordance with the individual physical【2】 of the throat.
One possible implementation of the 【3】 of voice recognition is voice profiling used by police analysts as a method of substantiating court evidence in trials. Every year, thousands of audiotapes with recorded interviews or 【4】 utterances are put to the purpose to help identify the probable 【5】. Specialists dealing with the voice investigation claim that people can give themselves away by their 【6】, inflections or other voice attributes like pitch, intensity and loudness. A recorded sample is usually 【7】 into electric impulses and later transformed into a pictorial recoding which is processed by a computer program. Very frequently voice analyst have a stake at deciphering the relevant information which may be 【8】 with background noise or other interfering sounds until they attain the 【9】 results.
Thankfully, these efforts help the police detect individuals who threaten their victims by phone or inform about bomb 【10】 or those who make offensive calls disturbing the peach of decent citizens.
