　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　Doctors say obesity, also known as severe overweight, is a complex condition. A doctor may advise medical interventions(医疗干预)in addition to changes in behavior. But experts say the more successful weight­loss plans include a well­balanced diet and exercise.

　　People who want to avoid weight gain have to balance the number of calories they eat with the number of calories they use. To lose weight, you can reduce the number of calories you take in, or increase the number you use, or both. Experts at the National Institutes of Health say to lose weight, a person should do some moderate or intensive physical exercise most days of the week. This could include fast walking, sports or strength training.

　　A recent study looked at four of the most popular dieting plans in the United States. Researchers at Stanford University studied more than three hundred overweight women, mostly in their thirties or forties. Each woman went on one of the four plans: Atkins, The Zone, Ornish or LEARN. The women attended diet classes and received written information about the food plans. At the end of a year, the women on the Atkins diet had lost the most, more than four and a half kilograms on average.

　　Christopher Gardner led the study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association. He said the Atkins diet may be more successful because of its simple message to lower the intake of sugar. Also, he said the advice to increase protein in the diet leads to more satisfying meals.

　　But last week, another report suggested that only a small minority of people have long­term success in dieting. Researchers at the University of California found that most dieters regained their lost weight within five years. And often they gained back even more. But those who kept the weight off generally were the ones who exercised.

　　1. All the following is helpful to lose weight except________.

　　A. a healthy diet

　　B. physical exercise

　　C. medical interventions

　　D. being polite to others

　　2. You are most likely to gain too much weight if________.

　　A. you eat the same number of calories as the number you use

　　B. you take in less calories than the number you use

　　C. you take in more calories than the number you use

　　D. you take exercise regularly on the weekdays

　　3. The third paragraph mainly tells us that________.

　　A. there are four popular dieting plans in the USA

　　B. the Atkins diet has the best effect on losing weight

　　C. lots of women attended diet classes every day

　　D. dieting plan is the most important

　　4. Which one of the followings is NOT right according to this passage?

　　A. The change of your life habits can help you lose weight.

　　B. You’d better exercise once a week to lose some weight.

　　C. The Atkins diet may be good because of lowering the intake of sugar.

　　D. Some people gain weight back for their unhealthy diet.

　　5. Which one of the followings is the best title for this passage?

　　A. Successful weight­loss plans

　　B. Four popular dieting plans

　　C. What is the Atkins diet?

　　D. Few people fail in losing weight

　　答案：

　　1. D　细节理解题。根据前两段中的有关信息，尤其是第一段中的“A doctor may advise medical interventions(医疗干预)in addition to changes in behavior. But experts say the more successful weight­loss plans include a well­balanced diet and exercise.”可知，医疗干预、均衡的饮食和锻炼都对减肥有利。故答案为D项。

　　2. C　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“...to balance the number of calories they eat with the number of calories they use.”以及下文中的情节可知应选C项。

　　3. B　段意归纳题。本段主要告诉我们“the Atkins diet”这种饮食计划对减肥有较好的效果，解题时联系该段最后的“At the end of a year, the women on the Atkins diet had lost the most, more than four and a half kilograms on average.”可知答案。

　　4. B　细节理解题。第二段中的“...intensive physical exercises most days of the week.”说明一周的大多数日子都要进行锻炼才会对减肥有好的效果，根据最后一段也能看出，坚持锻炼，减肥效果才能保持。

　　5. A　标题选择题。文章分析了造成肥胖的一些因素，并结合对实验的观察和分析告诉我们，什么样的减肥方案才是科学有效的，因此A项正确。

　　Ⅲ.书面表达

　　范文： Dear Sue，

　　Im Li Hua, one of your students in China. It’s almost a month since you left us. We all miss you and are very grateful for what you did for us.

　　We are busy as usual. We had an English speech contest the other day. I won the first prize! This again reminds me of all your kind help. Do you still remember the trees we planted together on the hill behind the school? Yesterday, we went there and watered them. The tree you planted yourself is growing well, and the whole class decided to name it Sue Wood. Will you come back to see Sue Wood?

　　How is everything with you lately? We hope to know more about you and your American students. Hope to keep in close touch.

　　All the best!
