The Diet Zone: A Dangerous Place

   Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet…We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically。

Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brains to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high—calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.

On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero—calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals .Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.

From Paragraph 1, we learn that __________.

   A. diet products are misleading people

B. people have difficulty in choosing diet products

   C. diet products fail to bring out people’s possibility

D. people are fed up with diet products

One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to ______.

   A. try out a variety of diet foods   B. watch their weight rather than their diet

C. pay attention to their own eating habits D. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods

In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means ________.

   A. diet products bring no pain   B. it costs a lot to lose weight

   C. losing weight is effortless   D. diet products are free from calories

Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products ______.

   A. are over-consumed     B. provide too much energy

C. are short of chemicals   D. lack basic nutrients

B
Taste is such a subjective matter that we don’t usually conduct preference tests for food.The most you can say about anyone’s preference is that it’s one person’s opinion.But because the two big cola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola-are marketed so aggressively, we’ve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty.We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.
We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke, or Diet Pepsi.These were people who thought they’d have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.
We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers.Then we fed them with four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other.We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants’ choices with what mere guesswork could have accomplished.
Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand.In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials.The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly.
Both groups did better than chance would predict, but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times.Two people got all four samples wrong.Overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor.Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.
41.According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to ________.
A.show that a person’s opinion about taste is mere guesswork
B.compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks
C.find out the role taste preference plays in a person’s drinking
D.reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers
42.The statistics recorded in the preference tests show that________.
A.there is not much difference in taste between Coca-Cola and Pepsi
B.few people had trouble telling Coca-Cola from Pepsi
C.people’s tastes differ from one another
D.Coca-Cola and Pepsi are people’s two most favorite drinks
43.It is implied in the first paragraph that________.
A.the competition between the two colas is very strong
B.blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans
C.the purpose of taste test is to promote the sale of colas
D.the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies
44.The underlined word “burnout” here refers to the state of________.
A.being seriously burnt in the skin           
B.being badly damaged by fire  
C.being unable to burn for lack of fuel     
D.being unable to function because of too much use
45.The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to________.
A.emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other
B.recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas
C.show that taste preference is highly subjective
D.a(chǎn)rgue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy
