The meal you eat after exercising matters! No matter what time of day you exercise, the key is to follow the exercise up with meals that supply enough nutrition. For the best results, eat within thirty to sixty minutes after exercising, when the muscles are at the best time to take in nutrients.
Here are some ideas for meals after exercising:
Home-made sports—recovery drink
Mix banana, milk, and yogurt to make a fresh and satisfying sports—recovery drink. Dairy products like milk and yogurt work double duty, providing both protein and carbohydrates. A cup of coffee, on the other hand, is a poor choice.
Protein—packed sandwich
You can’t go wrong with a sandwich after exercising—it’s got everything in a hand—held package. Sandwiches provide the salt you need to replace what you have lost by sweating, while the tomatoes in them supply plenty of Vitamin C. Try using whole—wheat bread to give yourself more fiber. The cheese and fresh vegetables in sandwiches are also great for helping tired muscles recover.
Power breakfast
An egg sandwich is a perfect post—exercise breakfast. There’s protein in both the yolk(蛋黄) and the white of the egg. This recipe increases your protein intake while keeping calories and fat under control. Eggs also contain zinc(锌), which helps protect against disease.
Plant—based protein
Beans are an amazing source of plant—based protein and carbohydrates. Make a large bowl of bean salad in the beginning of a week, and you’ll have a great post—exercise meal that is ready whenever you need it.
1.Why does the author advise eating a protein—packed sandwich after exercising?

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.It’s the best time for muscles to take in nutrients within 30 to 60 minutes after exercising.
B.It’s best for you to have an egg sandwich after exercising.
C.A cup of coffee will help you recover after exercising.
D.Bean salad is another great meal for post—exercising.
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The healthy eating habits of athletes. B.The best time for exercising.

Houston, Texas (June 8. 2002)–in 2004, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will send two robots to separate places of Mars to seek out past or present signs of water. It is an exciting idea to send two robots driving over very different places of Mars at the same time, to be able to see what is on the other side of the hill.
Last month, NASA announced it was sending one robot to Mars, but after two weeks, it decided there was enough money for two. The robots will be sent up within two weeks of each other in May and June of 2003 from Kennedy Space Center. If all goes well, the two spacecraft will touch down on Mars, after a seven-and –a-half-month space flight, on January 2 and 20, 2004.
The robots, each weighing 150 kilograms, can cover 100 meters per day. They are designed to be able to examine the mineral content of the soil, and their special camera will take pictures of the lands and hills. Although they will be under control from the earth, the robots are able to move more freely compared to those sent up before them.
The actual landing points have not been determined yet, but the scientists say it will be in areas where they hope to find water.
1.According to the news report, scientists plan to send robots up to Mars to _____.
A.find out whether there is water on Mars B.see if robots can find minerals there
C.test how fast robots can drive there D.prove that robots can work on Mars
2.How long in between will the two robots be sent to Mars?
A.1 year B. 7.5 months C. 2 months D. 2 weeks
3. One of the important jobs for the robots on Mars is to _______.
A.study the soil B. walk everywhere
C.test the new camera D. find a suitable landing point
4. We can infer from the last sentence that scientists ________.
A. have changed the landing points many times
B. hope to land the robots on the surface of water
C. are still working on the plan
D. know where they can find water

Some scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings. The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels(分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.
Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales.
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that loud noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales’ ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.
Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noise from harming creatures in the ocean.
1.According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?
A. The man-made noises. B. The noises made by themselves
C. The sound of earthquakes D. The sound of the ice-breaking
2. Which of the following is discussed in the second paragraph?
A. Different places with different types of noises.
B. The very human ears sensitive to all types of noises.
C. The same noise measured differently on land and in the ocean.
D. The ocean animal’s reaction to noises.
3. As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. They are deaf to noises. B. Noises at a certain level may hurt them.
C. They are easily confused by noises D. Noises will limit their ability to reproduce
4. According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?
A. They will try their best to decrease noise.
B. They will work hard to cut down noise pollution.
C. They will study the effect of different noises.
D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to bear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, and then asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Jane, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could – and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.

Tamiflu does not kill but prevents H1N1 from further proliferation (繁衍) till the virus limits itself in about 1-2 weeks (its natural cycle)．H1N1, like other Influenza A viruses, only infects the upper respiratory tract and proliferates (only) there．The only way of entry are the nostrils(鼻孔) and mouth/ throat．In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible not coming into contact with H1N1．
Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is．
While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in order to prevent proliferation, some very simple steps can be practiced:
1．Frequent hand-washing．
2．"Hands-off-the-face" approach．Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat or bathe)．
3．Gargle(漱口) twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don't trust salt)．H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms．Simple gargling prevents proliferation．In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one．Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method．
4．Similar to 3 above, clean your nostrilsat least once every day with warm salt water，Which is very effective in bringing down viral population．
5．Strengthen your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C ．If you have to supplement with Vitamin C tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption．
6．Drink as much of warm liquids as you can．Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction．They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm．
7．All these are simple ways to prevent, within means of most households, and certainly much less painful than to wait in long queues outside public hospitals．
1．What part of a person’s body do H1N1flu viruses mainly infect?
A．one’s lung B．the upper respiratory tract
C．one’s heart D．one’s throat and lung
2．H1N1 flu viruses go into our bodies by ________．
A．touching B．diet C．breathing D．dirt
3．What does the underlined word “underestimate” mean ?
A．assign too low a value to
B．drop the cost of
C．pay more attention to
D．calculate the number of money
