The results show that if he or she eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

【推荐1】Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.
Opposite to what many people believe, if you don’t eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

【推荐2】Will skipping breakfast make me fat?
The good news for those who don’t have breakfast is that putting on weight isn’t inevitable —as long as you control those high-calorie desires and stay active.
Research shows that although avoiding breakfast will make you hungrier and you might make up for that with a bigger lunch, this won’t necessarily make you “fatter” — on average, those who skip breakfast don’t eat more across the whole day than if they didn’t skip it. Some researchers have found that you may even eat fewer calories overall, and end up using your body’s fat reserves for energy, which can actually help you lose weight.
However, weight isn’t the only consideration: studies show that breakfast-skippers are likely to exercise less. This may be because they have lower energy levels-after eight hours or so without food, the body will have used up most of its stores of easy-to-access energy during sleep. Morning fasters are also more likely to have unhealthy, but appetite-suppressing habits, such as smoking or drinking a lot of coffee.
If you want to ensure that you eat a regular, nutritious breakfast, try preparing it the night before don’t leave it until the morning, when your brain struggles to make good decisions.
If you do skip breakfast. . .
■Don’t make up for it with a huge lunch, otherwise you’ll suffer overeating.
■Make sure you eat something before you exercise, or you risk “hitting the wall”.
■Don’t make up for lack of energy with coffee-it can make you lose your appetite and make you anxious and nervous.

【推荐3】While there are many different methods of fighting with stress, arming your body with mood-improving food is one of the most basic places to start. Try adding the following foods to your diet, and step away from bread and cake.
1. Eggs
Rich in protein, eggs also provide calcium, iron, zinc, selenium, phosphorus, and vitamins A, D, E, and K, making them one of the most nutritional foods around. Drew Ramsey, author of The Happiness Diet, praises nutrient-rich foods for battling stress and notes that eggs are part of his favorite anxiety-reducing breakfast.
2. Fish
Eating fish can have many benefits (好处), including fighting stress. Fish (like sardines, salmon, canned tuna) is rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Studies show omega-3 fatty acids help with depression as well as encouraging more positive social behavior in children.
3. Red peppers, papayas and kiwis
They have more vitamin C than oranges. Many studies point to vitamin C for controlling stress hormones. As Psychology Today reports, “People who have high levels of vitamin C do not show the expected mental and physical signs of stress when faced with serious psychological challenges.”
4. Tea
Drinking black tea may help you recover from stressful events more quickly, notes WebMD. One study looked at people who drank four cups of tea daily for six weeks, compared with people who drank something else. At the end of the study, the tea drinkers reported feeling calmer and had lower levels of cortisol after stressful situations.
5. Dark chocolate
Chocolate can help improve the mood and keep clear thinking. Studies also show dark chocolate can help people feel good and reduce stress. Not to mention, it might make you smarter. Is it just a coincidence (巧合) that the higher a country’s chocolate consumption is, the more Nobel Prize winners it creates? More chocolate, please.

【推荐1】To produce the classic clothing, blue jeans, producers rely on indigo dye (靛蓝染料), the only molecule known to provide jeans’ unique, beloved color. While indigo itself naturally comes from a plant, growing demand for blue jeans throughout the 20th century gave rise to synthetic (合成的) indigo, which is now more commonly used.
Indigo is the dye that makes jeans blue, but it doesn’t mix with water. To dye clothes, usually, chemicals are needed to make the color stick to the cloth. But in Denmark, scientists have created a new way to dye clothes using an enzyme (酶), which is a kind of protein that can cause chemical reactions, instead of harmful chemicals. This new method is better for the environment and doesn’t use poisonous stuff.
The chemical process for dyeing blue jeans has persisted for the last century. Workers are exposed to the poisonous chemicals, which also pollute the environment near factories. Waste water from those factories often ends up in waterways, decimating local ecosystems and even dyeing rivers blue.
Ditte Hededam Welner, the study’s lead researcher, says their new enzyme works really well and is strong enough for making lots of jeans without breaking down. This enzyme makes dyeing with indican, which is like indigo, much less harmful to the planet — about 92% better than the old way.
However, the new method doesn’t fix all the environmental problems of making jeans. Making a single pair of jeans uses a lot of water — enough to fill many bathtubs — from growing the cotton to putting the final touches on the jeans.
Even though the new dyeing process is better for the environment, it’s not always easy or cheap to change to it. Welner’s team isn’t sure if jeans companies will find it easy or affordable to switch to this method. It costs a little bit more — just seven cents extra per pair of jeans — to use the enzyme for dyeing. But Welner believes it’s worth it because it’s much better for the environment.

【推荐2】Being honest may not get you a lot of friends, but it will get you the right ones. That’s true, so you should pursue authentic positivity in your friendships, the opposite of toxic (有毒的) positivity that would have you encouraging friends in all things, regardless of what you might feel or observe or know about the challenges of life.
1. Ask questions.
A feature of authentic positivity is a curious mindset, a mentality where you are less locked into “telling it like it is” and more interested in wondering and exploring the possibilities together with your friend.
2.
“That’s so disappointing” is sometimes the most positive thing you can say to your friend when they are struggling. Resisting the urge to say “It’s all going to work out; don’t worry” shows your friend that you see them in their pain, and that you are available to support them here and now.
3. Learn to apologize —and ask for an apology.
A.Name hard truths. |
B.Don’t disappoint your friend. |
C.Every friend misses the mark sometimes. |
D.Instead, friends should be authentic and positive. |
E.Here are three ways to be an authentically positive friend. |
F.But that doesn’t mean you need to focus on the negative all the time. |
G.Positive friends ask each other questions, and listen deeply to the answers. |
【推荐3】With more and more people swimming at beaches every year, the problem of sharks takes on new importance. There are people who still insist that sharks never attack human beings unless they are bleeding or wounded, but this thought has not been clearly proved. In the past few years, on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, there have been cases of shark attacks which resulted in death. And just how many of the swimmers who have disappeared were victims of shark attacks will never be known. Clearly, these violent fish can be dangerous. Several species are known to attack human beings, and it is believed by some experts that certain sharks, once having tasted human blood, develop a taste for it.
The chances that one will come across a shark are small, but certain measures should be taken by everyone. Putting hands or legs over the side of a boat in warm water is to be avoided. Swimming far out from beaches is inviting trouble. No swimmer should go great distances from shore alone, or go into the water when nobody else is about. Skin divers, particularly those who go deep down in the water or among rocks and ledges(暗礁) that serve as hiding places for sharks, are taking unnecessary risks.
If one is in a boat that is rubbed against by a shark, he should remember the creature is not trying to upset his boat; it is probably trying to rub off sea lice (海虱). A beat, especially on the nose, will scare it away. If a swimmer comes across a shark, he should swim away as quietly as possible, trying to avoid making it angry. He should also head for shore (岸) as quickly as possible.
1. What should be done if a shark rubs against your boat?A.Stir up the water. | B.Shout and scream. |
C.Kick the shark. | D.Hit it on the nose. |
A.Certain sharks will become interested in human blood when they have tasted it. |
B.Certain sharks will hate human blood again after they have tasted it. |
C.Certain sharks will taste human blood every day after they have tasted it. |
D.Certain sharks will lose sense of taste when they have tasted human blood. |
A.Places with sea lice in water. | B.Somewhere near the beaches. |
C.Among the rocks and ledges. | D.It isn’t mentioned in the passage. |
A.Some people don’t think sharks will attack human . |
B.It’s impossible for swimmers to run into sharks. |
C.Swimmers should be very careful about sharks. |
