A group of people from Denmark have formed the B-Society. According to them, human beings are divided into types: A-People, and B-People. A-People have no problem getting up in the morning, and operate much better earlier in the day. However, B-people are better later in the day. “I’m useless early in the morning,” says one of the members of the B-Society.”All I can do is drink coffee, and stare into space. People used to get up early because they had to feed the animals. But I haven’t got any cows or chickens, so I can sleep late,” She adds. Since the society was set up, the B-Society has welcomed several thousand members.
Right now, the B-Society is fighting hard for businesses to join its B-certification (證明) list. Companies that are “B-certified” basically give their employees the opportunity to come in when they want. In some companies, employees arrive at any time up to 3:30 pm --- each to their own rhythm (節(jié)奏).
And it is not just businesses that are benefiting from this. Teenagers who can’t get out of bed in the morning, and parents who never quite get the kids to school on time, can now benefit from B-classes. From next year, a school in Copenhagen will offer classes which start later in the day (at 10 instead of eight). And even the government seems to like the idea.
The B-Society was founded by Camilla Kring, a professor from the University of Copenhagen. On her website, she says, “When B-people’s work rhythms are considered at the work place, their productivity (生產(chǎn)力) and quality of life is increased, which can increase productivity for the entire organization.”
She adds that, “B-Society will create a new daily rhythm in schools and other institutions (機構(gòu)) as an alternative to the current rhythm of ‘early at work and early at home’. We are working for the establishment of kindergartens, primary and secondary schools as well as universities that open between 10 am and 8 pm.”
Would you like to work for a B-certified company?
1. According to the text, who belong to the B-Society?
A. Late risers. B. Businessmen.
C. Animal lovers. D. Sleep experts.
2. In B-certified companies, employees can ____.
A. get more working opportunities
B. join any other companies
C. work on any days they choose
D. go to work at any time of a day
3.In Camilla Kring’s opinion, B-people _______.
A. are more hard-working than A-people
B. have a better quality of life than A-people
C. are more productive if given more freedom
D. like the rhythm of “early at work, early at home”
4.The author’s purpose in writing this text is to _____.
A. stress the importance of getting up early
B. express his attitude towards the B-Society
C. introduce a group having a special daily rhythm
D. call on people to work for B-certified companies

1.less red meat and more fibre, less saturated fat (飽和脂肪) and more fruit and vegetables, right? Wrong, according to a controversial new book by nutritionist Zoe Harcombe. In the book, Harcombe charts her careful journey of research into studies that underpin (鞏固) dietary advice—and her myth(誤區(qū))—breaking conclusions are surprising.
Myth2..
“Real fat is not bad for us,” says Harcombe. It’s man-made fats that we should be demonizing. Why do we have this idea that meat is full of saturated fat? In a 100g pork chop, there is 2.3g of unsaturated fat and 1.5g of saturated fat.
Myth: We should eat more fibre.
For three decades, we have eaten fibre into our bodies to help us feel full and keep our digestive systems moving. 3. , says Harcombe. The advice to eat more fibre is put forward along with the theory that we need to clean our digestive systems. But essential minerals are absorbed from food while it is in the intestines(腸道), so why do we want to wash everything out? Concentrate on not putting bad food in.
Myth: You need to eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. “Five-a-day is the most well-known piece of nutritional advice,” says Harcombe. “You’d think it was based on firm evidence of health benefit. 4. .” Five-a-day started as a marketing campaign by 25 fruit and vegetable companies and the American National Cancer Institute in 1991. There was no evidence for any cancer benefit.
Myth: Fruit and vegetables are the most nutritious things to eat.
Apparently not. Harcombe allows that vegetables are a great addition to the diet—if served in butter to deliver the fat-soluble(dissolved) vitamins they contain—but natural sugar in fruit, goes straight to the liver and is stored as fat.
5., says Harcombe, who adds, “Vitamins and minerals in animal foods—meat, fish, eggs and dairy products—beat those in fruit.”
A. Want to lose weight? Don’t trust these
B. We think we know what to eat
C. This is not a good idea
D. Fat is bad for us
E. Think again
F. We need to take more exercise
G Fruit is best avoided by those trying to lose weight
