　　较难题目特训：人物故事类

　　Most young architects—particularly those in big cities—can only dream about working in a building of their own. And making that dream come true often means finding a building no one else seems to want,which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his partner,Brian Bell. Their building is a former automobile electrical-parts firm in Atlanta. From the outside,it looks too old,even something horrible,but open the door and you are in a wide,open courtyard,lined on three sides with rusting (生锈的)walls.

　　In 2000,Yocum and Bell found this building in the city’s West End. Built in 1947,the structure had been abandoned years earlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But the price was right,so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition (拆除),pulling rubbish out through the roof,because it was too dangerous to go inside the building. The demolition was hard work,but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do,and“to treasure what was there—the walls,the rust,the light. “ Yocum said. “Every season,more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. It’s like an art installation (装置)in there—a slow-motion show. “

　　Since the back building had been constructed without windows,an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the courtyard,and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of the building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife. A sort of buffer (缓冲) zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom,a kitchen and a mechanical room,and the walls that separate these zones have openings that allow views through to the front of the studio and the courtyard beyond.

　　Yocum and Bell,who have just completed an art gallery for the city,feel that the experience from the decoration of their building,focusing on the inside rather than the outside,has influenced their work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less.

　　1. According to the passage,it is　for most young architects in big cities to work in a building of their own.　

　　A. easyB. unnecessaryC. unrealisticD. common

　　2. Yocum bought the old building because　.　

　　A. it was a bargain to him

　　B. it was still in good condition

　　C. it was located in the city center

　　D. it looked attractive from the outside

　　3. Working on the old building,Yocum and Bell　.　

　　A. pulled rubbish out through the roof

　　B. removed the skylights from the bathroom

　　C. presented a slow-motion show in an art gallery

　　D. built a kitchen at the back part of the old building

　　4. It can be inferred from the passage that Yocum and Bell　.　

　　A. benefited a lot from pulling down the roof

　　B. turned more old buildings into art galleries

　　C. got inspiration from decorating their old building

　　D. paid more attention to the outside of the art gallery

　　5. The main idea of the passage is that　.　

　　A. people can learn a lot from their failures

　　B. it is worthwhile to spend money on an old building

　　C. people should not judge things by their appearance

　　D. creative people can make the best of what they have

　　(2017·福州质检)Let's face it.No one drinks diet sodas for the taste.People drink diet sodas in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect，according to a new study.

　　Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didn't drink diet sodas.“What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank，the more weight they were likely to gain，”said Sharon Fowler.

　　The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large，ongoing research project，where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years.

　　While the findings are surprising，they also offer some explanations.

　　Nutrition expert，Melanie Rogers，who works with overweight patients in New York，has found that when patients are switched from regular to diet sodas，they don't lose weight at all.“We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily，and that was confusing to us，”said Rogers.

　　So why would diet soda cause weight gain？No one knows for sure yet，but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet sodas，and so over－compensate for the missing calories.

　　A related study found some sweeteners(甜味剂)raised blood sugar levels in some mice.“Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky.”said Helen P．Hazuda，professor at the University of Texas's school of medicine.“They may be free of calories，but not of consequences.”
