Many people want to lose weight (减肥) by having less food for their meals. Is it helpful if you don’t have your breakfast? Does your body work well without having breakfast?
Not a long time ago, a test was given in America. People of different ages, from 12 to 83 took the test. During the test, these people had all kinds of food for their breakfast, and sometimes they had no breakfast.
The result shows that if a person eats a good breakfast, he or she will work better than the person who has no breakfast. If a student has bread, fruit, vegetables, eggs and milk for breakfast, he can learn better in class.
The result also shows that if you want to lose weight, be sure to have a big breakfast. If not, you will be so hungry that you can’t help (忍不住) eating too much for lunch or supper. Then you will put on weight instead of losing it. You will not be fat when you have a good breakfast and reduce (减少) your other meals at the same time.
根据短文内容，判断下列各句正(T)、误(F)。
1. Many people want to lose weight by having no meals.
2. Having breakfast is good for our work.
3. If a student eats a healthy breakfast, he or she can learn better in class.

【推荐1】Some people decide to stop eating meat and begin to accept a vegan (素食) diet because of health reasons. This way of eating avoids all animal products, including meat, fish, milk, eggs and even honey.
Making the change can be a challenge for people who often have dairy and meat in their diet, according to Dena Champion, a dietitian, an expert on diet and nutrition (营养学), from Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. She added that starting a vegan diet could change your body in certain ways. It might even offer some health benefits.
Reduced body weight
Instead of high-fat proteins like bacon and beef, vegans get their protein from plant-based sources such as tofu, beans, soy milk, and so on. “This can lead to losing weight. Considering that two-thirds of Americans are overweight, this can have a positive effect on body shape and health”, says Kailey Proctor, a dietitian at St. Joseph Hospital in California.
Improved blood sugar control
Because being overweight is a major risk for developing diabetes (糖尿病), losing weight can lower that risk. There was one study from some experts published in the magazine Nutrients in 2018. The experts chose some overweight people with no history of diabetes to switch to a vegan diet. Then they followed them for 16 weeks. Improvements and better effects are seen in those people in controlling blood sugar levels.
Reduced cancer risk
There’s also the chance to reduce your risk of developing cancer. “Vegan diets, when planned correctly, are also very high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains. These plant-based foods have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer.”says Proctor. We should always focus on consuming whole, fresh foods as much as possible. It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough nutrients for your health.

【推荐2】I travel a lot. Each month, I pack up my suitcase to hit the road, whether it could be by plane, train, or automobile. I always find myself with the same problem—how to stay healthy while traveling?
Move around.
Though only about 1 in 4, 500 airplane passengers develop a blood clot（血块）, you should still make efforts to move around on the plane, just standing in the aisle or by taking a walk to the toilet. Have a layover（中途停留）? Instead of sitting, make sure to walk around the airport. Taking a road trip? Make plenty of stops to move around.
Prepare snacks smartly.
Because of low humidity on planes, many of us can find ourselves feeling thirstier than ever. Drink more water. Make sure when traveling on day trips to carry water with you at all times.

【推荐3】Almost every day, we discuss the topic of health, especially for kids. But what is health? “Health” means eating well, getting enough exercise, and having a healthy weight. Let’s read the following rules. They can help you stay healthy.
(1) Eat a variety of food, especially fruit and vegetables. We all know that eating fruit and vegetables can help us stay healthy, but many of us only eat our favorite food. Remember that we can only get the nutrition（营养）we need by eating different kinds of food, especially fruit and vegetables.
(2) Drink water and milk most often. Everyone knows that water is important. Besides that, kids need plenty of calcium（钙）to grow strong bones, and milk is rich in it. Every day, you should drink at least three cups of milk, when you are 9 years old or older. You should also try to have less sugary drinks, like soda and coca. They include a lot of sugar. Sugar only includes calories（ 热 量 ）, not important nutrition.
(3) Listen to your body. When you are eating, notice how your body feels. When your stomach feels comfortably full, stop eating. Eating too much makes you feel uncomfortable. If you do it too often, it can make you unhealthy and fat.
(4) Limit screen time. What’s screen time? It’s the amount of time you spend watching TV, movies and playing computer games. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time you spend playing sports, like basketball, and doing other activities like riding and swimming. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time.

【推荐1】It s an all too common story: A young child walks off during a party and falls into a backyard pool. No one notices she’s missing—until it’s too late. When Grayson Barron learned of such a tragedy in a friend’s neighbourhood, the 18-year-old immediately jumped into problem-solving mode. The new pool alarm system he’s just developed sends out several types of warnings when someone or something splashes into an unguarded pool.
Grayson calls his floating system “The Buoy（浮标）”. The idea is to turn it on when no one is using the pool. A large splash will trigger its built-in sensors to send out a series of alerts一a flashing light, an alarm that sounds like a loud doorbell and a text to the owner’s mobile phone. You could be on the other side of the world and know if somebody has just jumped in your pool.
Grayson’s is not the first pool alarm, but the teen says others all have drawbacks. Some are very costly. Other floating alarms can become stuck in corners of a pool or lose balance. He wanted a low-cost option that was reliable（可靠的）. Grayson 3-D printed the main part of his device, then attached sensors. They detect its direction and movements. He then equipped the device with a light, a speaker and a wireless network that can send texts. A battery, which is hooked up to solar panels, keeps the system charged for months.
While hard to design, the new system “is so easy to use,” says Grayson. “All I do is turn it on and throw it into a pool.” After that, he says, it just “does its thing”.
1. Why was a child falling into a pool mentioned in the first paragraph?| A．To remind the importance of safety. | B．To prepare for the topic of the text. |
| C．To praise Grayson Barron. | D．To show accidents are everywhere. |
| A．Cause. | B．Ask. | C．Encourage. | D．Persuade. |
| A．It is very expensive. | B．It s easy to get stuck. |
| C．It easy to lose balance. | D．It s difficult to design. |
【推荐2】We recycle rubbish, so why not language? Recycling language means using vocabulary (词汇) that you have learned before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up (堆积) in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it. So how do you recycle language? There are basically three ways to do it.
The first is through reading. Go back to your favorite articles and read them once more. Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item. If there are some that you are not sure about, make a guess and you will probably guess right.
The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favorite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don’t worry if you have made mistakes. You should learn from your mistakes.
The third way to recycle language is by having a chat with yourself about your favorite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with you who speaks English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel.
1. According to the passage, recycling language means ________.| A．using less vocabulary | B．writing vocabulary over and over again |
| C．learning more new vocabulary | D．using vocabulary that we have learned very often |
| A．be kept in our mind | B．be forgotten easily |
| C．pile up in our environment | D．disappear from our mind soon |

【推荐3】A kind of little cars may take the place of today’s cars some day. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution in the air. There will also be more space for parking cars in cities.
The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers an hour. The cars of the future will be fine for getting around a city, but they will not be useful for long trips. Little cars will go 450 kilometers before needing to stop for more gasoline.
If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big, fast cars and other roads will be needed for the slow, small ones.

【推荐1】Ghina Ghaliya of Indonesia says a stranger’s visit to her house led to a project to help students affected (影响) by COVID - 19. Ghaliya remembers when a rubbish collector came to her house in Jakarta. The man asked if she had an old mobile phone his children could use to get on the Internet for learning from home. Ghaliya thought there must be many people who need second-hand mobile phones out there. She and her group decided to provide mobile phones for poor students so that they could do face-to-face learning.
When the project was made public, many people donated (捐赠) second-hand phones, while others donated money. As of November, they had collected more than 200 mobile phones and donations of more than $ 35,000. They used the money to buy more phones. They also paid for Internet use for those needing it. Now nearly 300 phones have been given to students in and around Jakarta as well as to faraway areas.
Maghribi had also been using his father’s phone to attend lessons. But the 11 - year - old boy sometimes sent his homework late because he had to wait for his father to return. For the first time in his life, Maghribi was falling behind in his studies. This was making him feel worried. But a big smile appeared on his face when he received the mobile phone sent by Ghaliya’s group. Helping students take part in online schooling brings happiness to Ghaliya and her friends.

I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually good in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the window. You can see many interesting things on your way, though it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey whenever you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
