Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also the most neglect (忽视). Common reasons for not eating breakfast include having no time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike and dieting.
Breakfast simply means “break the fast’’. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead. 
A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie needs for the day. On average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner. If you don’t feel like having breakfast in the morning, try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.
If you still aren’t hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious(有营养的) mid-morning snack later when you are hungry.
So, you say you are on a diet. Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more. It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day. That is because your body is working correctly. Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long, in reality you are probably not.
Not eating breakfast can also cause you overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slow state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently(有效). If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day, you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.
Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right food is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat and grain products such as bread, rice, noodles and cereals.
What is the meaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”? 

A.Movement. B.Going without food.
C.Quickness. D.Certain kind of food.

If you don’t want to have breakfast in the morning, according to the writer’s suggestion, you   should ________.

A.see a doctor to have an examination
B.have a good supper
C.go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal
D.have a little supper

Eating breakfast, in fact, makes your body ________.

A.work out of order B.produce too much energy
C.work well D.feel hungry quicker

In the last paragraph, the writer mainly ________.

A.persuades us to have a good breakfast
B.tells us what food isn’t suitable for breakfast
C.tells us what food we should have for breakfast
D.describes when and how we should have our breakfast

  Once upon a time,there was a wonderful old man who loved everything on the land——animals and plants.
  One day while walking through the woods,the old man found a cocoon of a butterfly. He took it home. A few days later,a small opening appeared;he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly,so he took a pair of scissors and cut the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then came out easily.
  But it had a swollen body and small,shriveled(枯萎的)wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that,at any moment,the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body,or they would be smaller. Neither happened! In fact,the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.
  What the man in his kindness and hurry did not understand was that the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was nature’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
  Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any difficulties,it would cripple(使无能)us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. And we could never fly.

A.kill the butterfly
B.play with the butterfly

60.The reason why the butterfly could not fly is that__________.
A.the old man broke its wings
B.it was too small
C.newly born butterflies can’t fly
D.it came out of its cocoon without enough struggle

A.That old man was fond of everything except the butterfly.
B.It was the old man that stopped the butterfly flying.
C.The old man realized his mistake.
D.It’s not hard for the butterfly to come out of the cocoon.
62.What does the author want to tell us by writing the passage?

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
  It is a typical case. A young professional has just moved to a new city. She is very active in her new job but wishes to meet people socially outside of work. How does she do this?
  Signing up for a night class is always a good starting point. Not only is it an ideal way to meet like-minded people,it can also be a great new learning experience. Pubs and clubs can be a good meeting place but call be a bit hard if you are on your own.
  Join a gym
  GL-14 health club in Manchester city centre is a gym which also has lots of member activities outside the gym from charity fashion shows to dinner dances giving members a chance to socialize away from the treadmill(繁忙的工作). Or if you want a gym with a difference,try a“Green Gym”for people who want to exercise but wish to be outdoors and doing something that will benefit the environment at the same time. The“work out”could involve such activities as practical conservation or gardening work. It’s a great way to get people’s heart and muscle working. And many agree that meeting other people and having a matter and a laugh is a big attraction of the scheme.
  Reading groups
  In the Reading Groups,Jenny Hartley suggested that there may be as many as 50,000 people in reading groups in the UK. They range from informal groups of friends or colleagues who meet in someone’s home or at the local pub,to discuss a book. If you want something a bit more structured,lots of libraries have reading groups and could have a broader group of members.
  Statistics
  The BBC recently conducted a survey called Going solo:single life in the 21st century. You can look at the overall results or search by area. It found that:
  *69% of people thought that the gym was a good place to meet new
  *Pubs or clubs were considered to be good meeting places by 58% of people in the UK

Not even Dan Brown and his Da Vinci code—breakers(密码破译者)dared deal with the mystery of Mona Lisa,s smile.But Nicu Sebe,a computer expert the University of Amsterdam,the Netherlands,did.He used’emotion recognition’software to process the famous painting and found Mona Lisa happy(83 per cent)and slightly disgusted(厌烦的)(9 per cent).
Faces show emotions. Psychology,computer science,and engineering researchers are joining forces to teach machines to read expressions.If they succeed,your computer may one day“read”your mood.Machines equipped with emotional skills could also be used in teaching,gaming,mind-reading,etc.
“Mind Reader”,a system developed by Rosalind Picard at MIT(the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US, uses input from a video camera to do real—time analysis of facial expressions. It reports on whether you seem interested or agreeable or if you’re confused.The system can help people recognize others’emotions.Picard says this means we could teach a machine to be as sensitive as a human.In fact,a machine can be even smarter than people since it can tell if a person is lying or just “performing”by analyzing one’s facial movements.
Jeffrey Cohn,a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh,uses the Facial Action Coding System to recognize human emotions.The system sorts more than 40 action units(AUs)of the face to tell people’s real emotions.He studied a videotape of a criminal who said to be sad about the murder of several family members and tried to pin the blame on someone else.But Cohn saw no real sadness in the woman’s face.
Sadness is a group of AUs that is difficult to do at the same time.You have to pull down the woman’s of your lips while bringing your eyebrows together and raising them.What the woman did was raise her cheeks to make a lip cud(撇嘴)。Her brows stayed smooth.
72.The best title of this passage is“”.
A.The emotion on your faceB.Look at your face
C.Your face tells a story D.Telling a lie
73.The missing sentence“This means,even though your mouth lice,your face doesn’t,and the machine will know it all. ”should be put at the end of.
A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3
C.Paragraph 4 D.Paragraph 5
74.How many facial emotion analyses are mentioned in this passage?
A.Four. B.Three. C.Two. D.One
75.The underlined word“it”refers to——.
A.MIT B.the video camera
C.one’s face emotion D.the real—time analysis
