Growing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialties(特色菜) in Germany, Spain, and France.
At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named campus cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like making drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.
Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma is key. “Food TV isn’t about food anymore,” says Flay. “It’s about your personality and finding a way to keep people’s eyeballs on your show.”
But Lieberman isn’t putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing sandwiches. An airline company was looking for someone to come up with a tasteful, inexpensive and easy- to-make menu to serve on its flights. Lieberman got the job.
We can learn from the text that Lieberman’s family_______.
A. have relatives in Europe | B. love cooking at home |
C. often hold parties | D. own a restaurant |
The Food Network got to know Lieberman_________
A. at one of his parties | B. from his teachers |
C. through his taped show | D. on a television program |
What does the word “charisma” underlined in the text refer to?
A. A natural ability to attract others | B. A way to show one's achievement. |
C. Lieberman’s after-class interest. | D. Lieberman’s fine cooking skill. |
Why did the airline company give Lieberman the job?

B. He was famous for his shows on Food TV.
C. He was good at using eggs to make sandwiches.
D. He could cook cheap, delicious and simple meals

An Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 5'8''tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.
“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”
But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” Said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.
But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation can change the situation. There was no time to waste, so many girls were dieting to death.”
However, the efforts to regulate models’ weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.
Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”
1.What does BMI in the first paragraph refer to?
A. A measure of body health based on height and weight.
B. A worldwide prize for the healthiest model.
C. A new show held by those skinny models.
D. A kind of medicine to cure eating disorders.
2.One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ________.
A. to change the working conditions of models
B. to lower the chance of skinny models’ death
C. to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness
D. to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders
3.In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because .
A. it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.
B. it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well.
C. it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models.
D. the fashion industry is much too influential.
4.What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?
A. Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.
B. Establishing his fashion model agent.
C. Being interviewed by a reporter.
D. Seeing a model die from eating disorders.
5.According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is .
A. practical B. controversial C. acceptable D. Reasonable
