Obesity
Obesity refers to the medical condition characterized by storage of excess body fat. The human body naturally stores fat tissue under the skin and around organs and joints. Fat is critical for good health because it is a source of energy when the body lacks the energy necessary to sustain life processes, and it provides insulation and protection for internal organs. But too much fat in the body is associated with a variety of health problems.
Most physicians use the body mass index (BMI) to determine desirable weights. BMI is calculated as weight divided by height and people with a BMI of 27 or above are considered obese.
Weight-height tables, such as those published by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, are also used as general measures of desirable weight ranges3. These tables assign a range of weights for a particular height. For example, a man of 1.8 m has a desirable range of 66 to 83 kg, with an average of 75 kg. A woman who is 1.6 m has a desirable range between 53 and 70 kg, with an average of 62 kg.
The BMI and weight-height tables only provide rough estimates of desirable weights and scientists recognize that many other factors besides height affect weight. Weight alone may not be an indicator of fat, as in the case of a body-builder who may have a high BMI because of a high percentage of muscle tissue, which weighs more than fat. Likewise, a person with a sedentary lifestyle. may be within a desirable weight range but have excess fat tissue.
Obesity increases the risk of developing disease. According to some estimates, almost 70 percent of heart disease cases are linked to excess body fat, and obese people are more than twice as likely to develop high blood pressure. Obese women are at nearly twice the risk for developing breast cancer, and all obese people have an estimated 42 percent higher chance of developing colon cancer. The risk of medical complications, particularly heart disease, increases when body fat is distributed around the waist, especially in the abdomen. This type of upper body fat distribution is more common in men than in women.
The social and psychological problems experienced by obese people are also formidable. Stereotypes about "fat" people are often translated into discriminatory practices in education, employment, and social relationships. The consequences of being obese in a world where people had better be "thin" are especially severe for women, whose appearances are often judged against an ideal of exaggerated slimness.
What is obesity？
A．Obesity is having fat tissue under the skin.
B．Obesity is having fat tissue around organs.
C．Obesity is being too fat.
D．Obesity is having good health.
第3题
Meanwhile, poorer nations have enjoyed some success in their battles against malnutrition and famine. But, according to research presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, it is more a case of being out of the frying pan and into the fire. The most striking example actually in the poor world comes from the Pacific islands, home of the world's most obese communities. In 1966, 14% of the men on this island were obese while 100% of men under the age of 30 in 1996 were obese.
This increase in weight has been uneven as well as fast. As a result, undernourished and over-nourished people frequently live cheek by jowl(面颊). The mix can even occur within a single household. A study of families in Indonesia found that nearly 10% contained both the hungry and the fat. This is a mysterious phenomenon, but might have something to do with people of different ages being given different amounts of food to eat.
The prospect of heading off these problems is bleak. In many affected countries there are cultural factors to contend with, such as an emphasis on eating large meals together, or on food as a form. of hospitality. Moreover, there is a good measure of disbelief on the part of policymakers that such a problem Could exist in their countries. Add to that reluctance on the part of governments to spend resources on promoting diet and exercise while starvation is still a real threat, and the result is a recipe for inaction. Unless something is done soon, it might not be possible to turn the clock back.
The first sentence of the passage most probably implies that ______.
A．many Americans are obsessed with the rising temperature in their bathroom
B．more people are overweighed in the United States
C．people are doing more physical exercises with the help of scales
D．youngsters become taller and healthier thanks to more activities

A
We may be very pleased with the rapid progress we have made in every field of study. But the way to test a student's knowledge and ability still remains-as poor as it was. We have almost done nothing to improve our examination system.
It is well known that the exanunation system we are now using may be a good way of testing a student's memory, but it can tell you nothing about a student's ability. It does no good to students and teachers.
As soon as a child begins school, he enters a world of examination that will decide his future job. In fact a good examination system should train a student to think for himself. But it now does nothing about that. Students are encouraged to remember what is taught. It does not enable them to gain more new knowledge. The students who come out first in the examination often may not be the best in their studies.
Besides, the examinations often force teachers to train students what to do with the coming examination from time to time. There must be some simpler and better way to test a student' s ability besides knowledge. And that is what we should do at once.
56. The most suitable title of this passage is _________
[ A] Progress in the Field of Study
[ B ] Teachers' Role in Study
[ C ] How to Improve Students' Ability
[ D ] Bad Points of the Examination System

Ironically, the first evidence for this idea appeared in the United States. Not long ago, with the country entering a recessing and Japan at its pre-bubble peak. The U. S. workforce was derided as poorly educated and one of primary cause of the poor U. S. economic performance. Japan was, and remains, the global leader in automotive-assembly productivity. Yet the research revealed that the U. S. factories of Honda Nissan, and Toyota achieved about 95 percent of the productivity of their Japanese counterparts a result of the training that U. S. workers received on the job.
More recently, while examing housing construction, the researchers discovered that illiterate, non-English-speaking Mexican workers in Houston, Texas, consistently met best-practice labor productivity standards despite the complexity of the building industry's work.
What is the real relationship between education and economic development？ We have to suspect that continuing economic growth promotes the development of education even when governments don't force it. After ail, that's how education got started. When our ancestors were hunters and gatherers 10, 000 years ago, they didn't have time to wonder much about anything besides finding food. only when humanity began to get its food in a more productive way was there time for other things.
As education improved, humanity's productivity potential, they could in turn afford more education. This increasingly high level of education is probably a necessary, but not a sufficient, condition for the complex political systems required by advanced economic performance. Thus poor countries might not be able to escape their poverty traps without political changes that may be possible only with broader formal education. A lack of formal education, however, doesn't constrain the ability of the developing world's workforce to substantially improve productivity to the forested future. on the contrary, constraints on improving productivity explain why education isn't developing more quickly there than it is.
The author holds in paragraph 1 that the important of education in poor countries ______.
A．is subject groundless doubts
B．has fallen victim of bias
C．is conventional downgraded
D．has been overestimated

听力原文：M: Hi, Sally, going to the football game today？
W. Not to it. I' m planning to watch it on television.
M: Why is that？ Do you feel too poor this close to the end of the month？
W: Money is not the problem. I find it easier to follow football on television than in the stadium. When I see the game in person, I feel just I am too far away from the action, and I always lose track of the ball.
M: I know just what you mean. Besides on television the new cameras they use give you super-views of all the plays. But there is always so much excitement. People cheering and shouting when you are there in person. The enthusiasm is catching, and I'd cheer along with everyone else.
W: You are right there. But I' d like to know exactly what I'm yelling for. And if I can' t even see who has the ball, I can't get very excited. So I really prefer watching it on television.
M: I see your point. Well, enjoy the game.
W: You too.
What is the main topic of the conversation？
A．Attendance at sports meet.
B．Viewing football games.
C．Interviews with football players.
D．Types of college cheers.

The author holds in Paragraph 1 that the importance of education in poor countries_____
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FORMAL EDUCATION AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN POOR COUNTRIES IS WIDELY MISUNDERSTOOD BY ECONOMISTS AND POLITICIANS ALIK
E. PROGRESS IN BOTH AREAS IS UNDOUBTEDLY NECESSARY FOR THE SOCIAL, POLITICAL AND INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT OF THESE AND ALL OTHER SOCIETIES; HOWEVER, THE CONVENTIONAL VIEW THAT EDUCATION SHOULD BE ONE OF THE VERY HIGHEST PRIORITIES FOR PROMOTING RAPID ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN POOR COUNTRIES IS WRON
G. WE ARE FORTUNATE THAT IT IS, BECAUSE BUILDING NEW EDUCATIONAL SYSTEMS THERE AND PUTTING ENOUGH PEOPLE THROUGH THEM TO IMPROVE ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE WOULD REQUIRE TWO OR THREE GENERATIONS. THE FINDINGS OF A RESEARCH INSTITUTION HAVE CONSISTENTLY SHOWN THAT WORKERS IN ALL COUNTRIES CAN BE TRAINED ON THE JOB TO ACHIEVE RADICAL HIGHER PRODUCTIVITY AND RADICALLY HIGHER STANDARDS OF LIVIN
G. THE FIRST EVIDENCE FOR THIS IDEA APPEARED IN THE UNITED STATES. NOT LONG AGO, WITH THE COUNTRY ENTERING A RECESSION AND JAPAN AT ITS PRE-BUBBLE PEAK, THE U.S. WORKFORCE WAS DERIDED AS POORLY EDUCATED AND ONE OF THE PRIMARY CAUSES OF THE POOR U.S. ECONOMIC PERFORMANC
E. JAPAN WAS, AND REMAINS, THE GLOBAL LEADER IN AUTOMOTIVE-ASSEMBLY PRODUCTIVITY. YET THE RESEARCH REVEALED THAT THE U.S. FACTORIES OF HONDA, NISSAN, AND TOYOTA ACHIEVED ABOUT 95 PERCENT OF THE PRODUCTIVITY OF THEIR JAPANESE COUNTERPARTS AS A RESULT OF THE TRAINING THAT U.S. WORKERS RECEIVED ON THE JO
B. MORE RECENTLY, WHILE EXAMINING HOUSING CONSTRUCTION, THE RESEARCHERS DISCOVERED THAT ILLITERATE, NON-ENGLISH-SPEAKING MEXICAN WORKERS IN HOUSTON, TEXAS, CONSISTENTLY MET BEST-PRAC TICE LABOR PRODUCTIVITY STANDARDS DESPITE THE COMPLEXITY OF THE BUILDING INDUSTRY"S WOR
K. WE HAVE TO SUSPECT THAT CONTINUING ECONOMIC GROWTH PROMOTES THE DEVELOPMENT OF EDUCATION EVEN WHEN GOVERNMENTS DON"T FORCE IT. AFTER ALL, THAT"S HOW EDUCATION GOT STARTE
D. WHEN OUR ANCESTORS WERE HUNTERS AND GATHERERS 10,000 YEARS AGO, THEY DIDN"T HAVE TIME TO WONDER MUCH ABOUT ANYTHING BESIDES FINDING FOO
D. ONLY WHEN HUMANITY BEGAN TO GET ITS FOOD IN A MORE PRODUCTIVE WAY WAS THERE TIME FOR OTHER THINGS. AS EDUCATION IMPROVED, HUMANITY"S PRODUCTIVITY POTENTIAL INCREASED AS WELL. WHEN THE COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT PUSHED OUR ANCESTORS TO ACHIEVE THAT POTENTIAL, THEY COULD IN TURN AFFORD MORE EDUCATIO
N. THIS INCREASINGLY HIGH LEVEL OF EDUCATION IS PROBABLY A NECESSARY, BUT NOT A SUFFICIENT, CONDITION FOR THE COMPLEX POLITICAL SYSTEMS REQUIRED BY ADVANCED ECONOMIC PERFORMANC
E. A LACK OF FORMAL EDUCATION, HOWEVER, DOESN"T CONSTRAIN THE ABILITY OF THE DEVELOPING WORLD"S WORKFORCE TO SUBSTANTIALLY IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTUR
E. ON THE CONTRARY, CONSTRAINTS ON IMPROVING PRODUCTIVITY EXPLAIN WHY EDUCATION ISN"T DEVELOPING MORE QUICKLY THERE THAN IT IS.

听力原文：M: I came to talk to you about transferring my major out of the math department.
W: Let's see. You're a sophomore now, aren't you ？ Why do you want to change majors？
M: On the final test in my calculus class I got a pretty poor score, I knew the material, but I made a small mistake early in the equation, so all the rest of the answers were wrong, too.
W: Didn't you discuss this with your instructor？
M: I didn't bother. We never got along too well. Besides, I really don't want to face this kind of pressure on every test till I graduate.
W: So what major do you want to change to？
M: I love psychology, but you need a Ph.D. to get any kind of a good job. So I thought sociology would be next best, and there is reasonable employment available for someone with a B.A.
W: Yes, that's true. And you could feasibly apply your math credits to a math minor.
M: So is it possible to change my major？
W: It seems reasonable to me, but you will need approval from the department head to get in.
(23)
A．Pass his math class.
B．Get a good job.
