17.Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(難為情) when they're in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn't have enough window light,get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors.Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us less hungry.So when it's time to repaint,go blue.
Don't forget the clock-or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time,and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes.And while you're at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down,turning on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plants can easily makes us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(攝入) jumps by 14 percent.And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.

6.When the Apollo astronauts landed on the Moon in 1969,millions of people were rather sad.The person to blame for this was an artist named Chesley Bonestell.For many years,Bonestell had been creating beautifully detailed paintings of the Moon and planets.Viewers of his artwork were unhappy because the real Moon did not look like Bonestell's pictures of it.
As a space artist,Bonestell tried to make his drawings look exciting and as true as the Moon is.He worked closely with astronomers and scientists to get the most up-to-date scientific information available.But in the 1940s and 1950s,no one had ever seen another planet up close.Yet Bonestell's paintings looked so real that some people thought they were photographs.
Even though Bonestell was interested in astronomy,he did not start out as a space artist.As a young man he studied architecture---the art and science of designing and making buildings.In 1938Bonestell became a special effects artist in Hollywood.It was here that he learned he could improve his paintings by following the methods used in the movies.
In 1944,a popular magazine published a series of Bonestell's paintings of the planet Saturn.He drew Saturn as if it were seen by someone standing on each of the planet's moons.The results were dazzling.Within a few years,Bonestell's artwork was appearing regularly in magazines and books on astronomy and space flight.
Many of Bonestell's artworks had been right all along.But the biggest surprise was the Moon.Someone asked Bonestell what he was thinking when he saw the first pictures from the Moon."I thought how wrong I was!"he said."My mountains were sharp,and they aren't on the Moon."
But he shouldn't have felt bad.No space artist had ever before taken so many people to so many faraway worlds.In the years just before the first manned space flights,Bonestell's artwork prepared people for the amazing space adventure to come.

51.Bonestell made his space drawingsC.
A.from a very early age
B.by copying photographs
C.with the help of scientists
D.in order to make a living
52.The underlined word"dazzling"in Paragraph 4 can best be replaced by"D".
A.doubtful  B.wonderful  C.terrible  D.worrying
53.Compared with the mountains in Bonestall's pictures,those on the Moon are muchA.
A.smoother  B.higher  C.darker  D.greener
54.Bonestell's success lay in the fact thatD.
A.he created a new drawing skill
B.he helped finish the first space flight
C.he made space travel more popular
D.he helped bring space closer to people
55.What would be the best title for the text?B
A.The first men on the Moon
B.The space art of Chesley Bonestell
C.The journeys of the Apollo astronauts
D.Spacewalking:through an astronaut's eyes.

2.Taking exams in a large group setting can be stressful for students and for the staff members who are watching over them.
  When classrooms are crowded and desks are close together,cheating might be tempting.
  One university in Thailand came up with an anti-cheating hat that makes it almost impossible for students to see other students'papers. A photo of the students wearing the anti-cheating hats made its way to the Internet,and the university was criticized for making students wear those ridiculous looking homemade hats.

Students came up with different ideas,then the paper hat idea was selected by them as the most suitable.
  The university claimed that no one was forced to use the hat,but they all chose to do so."When wearing the hat during the exam,students felt more relaxed,"Nattadon Rungruangkitkrai,a lecturer at the university said."It was not meant to indicate that Kasetsart students often cheat on exams.

9.It is often assumed that people with parents who lived to be very old are more likely to live to a grand old age themselves.
"But that's just not true-our study shows that hereditary factors don't play a major role and that lifestyle has the biggest impact."says professor Lars Wilhelmsen,referring to the 1913 Men Study that formed the basis of the current research.
Those who did not smoke,consumed mild amou nts of coffee and had a good socio-economic status at the age of 50 (measured in terms of housing costs),as well as good?physical working ability at the age of 54 and low cholesterol (膽固醇) at 50 had the greatest chance of celebrating their 90th birthday.
"We're breaking new ground here."says Wilhelmsen."Many of these factors have previously been identified as playing a role in cardiovascular(心血管的 )disease,but here we are showing for the first time that they are important for survival in general,"
He believes that it is significant that the research illustrates so clearly that it is the sum of our own habits that has the biggest impact.
"The study clearly shows that we can influence several of the factors that decide how old we get,"says Wilhelmsen."This is positive not only for the individual,but also for society as it doesn't need any major drug costs,"
The study has been published in the Journal of Internal Medicine.
The 1913 Men study started up in 1963. A third of all male 50-year-old in Gothenburg were called for a check-up that focused on cardiovascular health. Every ten years since,a new group of 50-year-old has been called in and those who were already taking part in the study have been given another check-up. This has enabled researchers to follow the development of illnesses in a specific age group,and to compare the health of 50-year-old in 2003 with that of 50-year-old in 1963,for example. Women have also been included in the study since 2003. Data have been studied over the years. including BMI (體質(zhì)指數(shù)),smoking habits,cholesterol,exercise habits and blood pressure,
The men born in l913 were examined when they were 50,54,60,67,75 and 80. Of the 855 men who took part in the study from the start,?111?(13%) were still alive at the age of 90.
Over the years the material has brought out many research articles. An interesting result came in 2008 when researchers were able to show that the drop in the number of smokers,combined with lower cholesterol levels and lower blood pressure,between 1963 and 2003 could offer an explanation for the marked downturn in the number of heart attacks during this 40-year period.
55. Which of the following statements is true'?C
A.Socio-economic status determines how healthy we are.
B.Cholesterol plays an important role in keeping us alive.
C.The amount of coffee consumption has an effect on our health.
D.How long we can live depends on how long our parents lived.
56.The 1913 Men Study helps us to realize that.A
A.we can do something to lengthen our life  
B. we don't need to take drugs for our diseases
C. we can always predict how long we can live
D. we need to balance the numbers of men and women
57.The earlier men involved in the 1913 Men Study were examined inBfor the second time.
A.1917      B.1967       C.1923        D.1973
58. From the article we can infer thatD.
A.more men than women are in the habit of smoking
B.scientists began to study men's habits in the year 1913

7.The elevator of the future may be just over the horizon thanks to German company ThyssenKrupp.The firm has invented a cable-free elevator (called MULTI) that can go up and down like traditional lifts but the magnetic motors allow it to go side-to-side too.The designers predict that this technology could incrase the carrying capacity of existing architecture by as much as 50%.Plus it looks really neat.
ThyssenKrupp plans to use light-weight materials to build its elevator ears of the future and the lack of a cable winch(鋼纜絞車)will reduce weight as well.The ears wouldn't just move up and down as they do now but would instead go in a circle that allows more cars to slip in fight behind the next.The result is that you might only have to wait 10seconds for the next one to arrive rather than wait for the one you just missed to come back down.
The technology backing ThyssenKrupp's MULTI elevator is very similar to magnetic levitation(磁懸。﹕ystems used in high-speed trains.Each car has two magnetic motors-one for vertical movement and another for horizontal.This system can also deliver power to the car's internal lighting and electronics without using wires.
A traditional cable driven elevator has mechanical components that can hold the car in place in the event of a power-off.ThyssenKrupp didn't go into detail about safety measures in its announcement but it's safe to say the magnetic levitation elevator will have some sort of system to hold it in place if the lights go out.ThyssenKrupp is working on a test tower that will be used to develop the MULTI into a real elevator technology.This should be up and running by 2016but it will probably take at least a few more years before you get to climb inside a magnetic elevator car.
32.What does the underlined phrase"over the horizon"mean?C
A.Above sea level.      
B.On the rise.     
C.On the way.    
D.Out of sight.
33.MULTI is designed toB.
A.save energy      
B.carry more passengers
C.run much faster   
D.be neat and comfortable
34.The key technology about MULTI is itsA.
A.magnetic motor   
B.cabl winch
C.wireless electronics  
D.lighting material
35.What can be learned from the last paragraph?D
A.MULTI will sell well.
B.MULTI has to work on a tower.
C.MULTI will be put into use in 2016.
D.MULTI has a safety system in case of power-off.
