I know what you’re thinking : pizza? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.

 I know lots of women who skip breakfast , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time. others think they’re “saving” calories, still others just don’t like breakfast food . 

But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece. 

Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal. 

So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects. 

The word “l(fā)eftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.

things left undone                     B. food remaining after a meal

C. meals made of vegetables         D. pizza topped with fruit

What can we infer from the text?

A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry. 

B. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal. 

C. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.

D. Eating vegetables helps save energy. 

According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________. 

A. eat something for breakfast   B. put away the leftovers instead of eating more.

C. heat up leftovers for breakfast  D. eat calorie-controlled food

The text is written mainly for those_____________. 

A. who go to work early                             B. who stay up late

C. who want to lose weight                D. who eat before sleep

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學(xué)年安徽省高三英語綜合測(cè)試題一 題型:閱讀理解

No matter how long your life is, you will, at best, be able to read only a few books of all that have been written, and the few you do read should include the best. You can be pleased with the fact that the number of such is relatively small.

It is to be expected that the selections will change over time. Yet there is a surprising uniformity (一致性) in the lists which represent the best choices of any period. In every age, the list makers include both ancient and modern books in their selections, and they always wonder whether the moderns are up to the great books of the past.

What are the signs by which we may recognize a great book? The four I will mention may not be all there are, but they are the ones I’ve found most useful in explaining my choices over the years.

Great books are probably the most widely read. They are enduring best sellers. Gone with the Wind has had relatively few readers compared to the plays of Shakespeare or Don Quixote. It would be reasonable to estimate that Homer Iliad has been read by at least 25,000,000 people in the last 3000 years.

Great books are popular, not pedantic. They are not written by specialists about specialties for specialists. Whether they are philosophy or science, or history or poetry, they treat of human, not academic problems. They are written for men, not professors. To read a textbook for advanced students, you have to read an elementary textbook first. But the great books can be considered elementary in the sense that they treat the elements of any subject matter. They are not related to one another as a series of textbooks, graded in difficulty or in the technicality of the problems with which they deal.

Great books are always contemporary, the most readable and instructive.

Great books deal with the continuously unsolved problems of human life. There are mysteries in the world that mark the limits of human knowing and thinking. Inquiry not begins with wonder, but usually ends with it also. Great minds acknowledge mysteries only honestly. Wisdom is encouraged, not destroyed, by understanding its limitations.

1.Which is not the criterion in the following when considering a great book?

A. Although not a best seller, it must be the most widely read.

B. A great book can be read without any effort.

C. Great books are never out of date.

D. Great books will not disappoint you if you try to read them well.

2.According to the author, Gone with the Wind is      .

A. a best seller                      B. disliked by readers who like Shakespeare

C. read more often than Don Quixote    D. a great book

3. In the passage the underlined word “pedantic” means        

A. showing the feelings, esp., those of kindness, which people are supposed to have

B. serving as practical examples

C. being elementary

D. paying too much attention to details in books

4.The best title for this passage is         .

A. Great Books in Your Life                 B. Great Books in Your Specialty

C. How to Find a Great Book?                D. What Is a Great Book?

科目:高中英語 來源:2010-2011學(xué)年北京市東城區(qū)高三下學(xué)期二模英語試題 題型:閱讀理解

This is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store I am employed as a shop assistant .

When you took my bag, I don't know what you thought you were going to get.With my wages, there's not much left on a Tuesday.I hope the £5 was useful to you .I have informed the  social security office so you won't be able to cash the child benefit next week .I hope that won't leave you too short.But if you really need a couple of pounds, I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book.Of course,I phoned the bank right away and the check-casing card is no longer valid, so it won’t be much use to you .

Actually I don't mind about the money too much.We single parents who work to support our families understand only too well what it means to be short of cash .However, I don’t suppose it went very far among the three of you.Sorry about that!

I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book.There were all kinds of papers in it, and notes and things that I really need.I really think that was very inconsiderate of you .I mean, how would you like something like that to happen to you?

Well, perhaps the bag will turn up.It wasn't even an expensive one.just a plain, old brown leather shoulder bag.You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes. We've looked around, of course, but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop.

I'm not really angry with you.I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us, but I am sad at the loss of my personal things.I feel violated and helpless.The police were very icy, and they just shrugged(聳) their shoulders."It happens all the time," they told me .Some small comfort, I suppose.But I've lost just a little more faith in human nature.And as my young son said when I told him what had happened, "Why? Mummy, why us?" I couldn't answer that question.I wonder if you can.

1.In writing Paragraph 2, the writer wants to           

    A.describe the contents of the bag in detail.

    B.give some suggestions to the three thieves

    C.tell the thieves hardly any money was available

    D.state the fact that she was careless with the money

2.Which of the following is the most valuable to the writer?

    A.The cash in her bag.                B.The papers and notes in the bag.

    C.The handbag itself.                 D.The check books in the bag.

3.What can we conclude about the police?

    A.They have doubts about human nature.

    B.They show sympathy for the woman.

    C.They think the case quite common.

    D.They are unable to find the thieves.

4.Why does the author write the letter?

    A.To give the thieves a serious warning.

    B.To complain about the fall of morality.

    C.To call people’s attention to their belongings.

    D.To express her affection for her valuable bag.
