However, you don't have time to carefully plan menus for meals or read food __41__ at the supermarket. Since you really__42__ yourself to a healthier lifestyle, a little help would come in handy, wouldn't it? This is where a \yourself. Choice architects are people who organize the contexts in which customers make decisions. For example, the person who decides the layout of your local

supermarket-including which shelf the peanut butter goes on, and how the oranges are piled up—is a choice architect.

Governments don't have to__44__healthier lifestyles through laws for example, smoking bans. Rather, if given an environment created by a choice architect-one that encourages us to choose what is best-we will do the right things. In other words, there will be designs that gently push customers toward making healthier choices, without removing freedom of choice. This idea combines freedom to choose with__45__hints from choice architects, who aim to help people live longer, healthier, and happier lives.

The British and Swedish governments have introduced a so-called \

system\glance how much fat, sugar, and salt each product contains__47__by looking at the lights on the package. A green light __48__that the amounts of the three nutrients are healthy; yellow indicates that the customer should be__49__; and red means that the food is high in at least one of the three nutrients and should be eaten in __50__. The customer is given important health information, but is still free to decide what to choose.

41.在超市选购食品时，我们会关注食品的什么？当然是食品的生产日期、保质期等各方面健康安全资料，而这些内容都会在食品标签上说明。因此答案为G。

42. Commit oneself to sth , 决定某事。本句的意思是说，“自从你决定采取一种更健康的生活方式，许多益处就变得触手可得。”因此答案为C。

43.根据下文对choice architect的解释，其作用是帮助设计对食品的合理选购和放置，正好对应上文繁琐的健康饮食要求，因此是choice architect的作用是帮助减轻在这方面的压力。因此答案为I。

44.“政府不会通过法律来推行这样的健康饮食方式，比如说戒烟禁令。”因此答案为F。 45.“这样的方法结合顾客从采购顾问那儿学到了一些温和方式依旧可以自由选择。”同时根据上一句” there will be designs that gently push customers toward making healthier choices”也可以判定答案为gentle。

46.根据下文“这意味着可以区别各种食物的脂肪、糖类和盐等各种物质含量“可知这是通过食物的各种含量不同对其进行分类。因此答案为E。

47.根据上文可知，区别食物的方法就像交通信号灯一样，用三色分辨，方法很简单。“通过观察包装上的灯色可以简单地区分食物里的各种物质含量。”因此答案选择K。

48. “A green light…that the amounts of the three nutrients are healthy; yellow indicates that the customer should be…; and red means…。”分别解释三色灯信号的意义。答案为J。 49.通过对交通信号灯的了解我们可以确定黄灯是存在危机的暗示。因此答案为A。 50.“红灯意味着摄入食量过多，营养过剩，因此需要注意适度饮食。”因此答案为H。

A. breaks B. viewing C. texting D. permanent E. positioned F. connected G. physical H. symptoms I. complaining J. effectively K. simply

he next time you’re riding a subway or bus, pay attention to your fellow passengers. Chances are you’ll see plenty of them with their heads down, tapping the screens of their tablets or 41 on their smartphones. While these folks may be making good use of their time by staying 42 , their bodies are paying a heavy price for such convenience.

As hand-held devices such as smartphones and tablets are becoming more common, users are reporting some new 43 problems. Florida chiropractor (脊椎按摩师) Dean Fishman began noticing an increased number of his patients 44 of neck and shoulder pain. He traced these 45 to the overuse of hand-held devices, specifically the action of bending the neck, and created the term ―Text Neck.‖ As if the painful symptoms weren’t bad enough, Fishman warns that an untreated case of Text Neck could lead to 46 spinal (脊柱的) damage. He founded the Text Neck Institute in an effort to treat and educate those suffering from Text Neck. Treatments offered there include chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage therapy and exercise planning.

In order to avoid or reduce the possibility of getting Text Neck, use the following basic principles: ? Avoid awkward positioning. Don’t strain (滥用) your neck, and stay aware of how your body is 47 in

relation to the device.

? Take frequent 48 when using any kind of mobile device.

? When using a tablet, use a case that can back up the device at comfortable 49 angle.

For those who 50 can’t take their eyes off their devices, there is an ironic twist – downloading a special app（应用程序）could help. Dr. Fishman has released an app called the Text Neck Indicator App, which measures the angle of your smartpphone. When the angle is appropriate, a green light appears in the upper corner of your screen. But when the angle puts you at risk for neck strain, the light turns red, obliging you to adjust your angle.

Beyond two or three days, the world’s best weather forecasts are based on guesswork, and beyond six or seven they are worthless.

The Butterfly Effect is the reason. For small pieces of weather — and to a global forecaster, small can mean thunderstorms and snowstorms — any ___41___ fails rapidly. Errors and uncertainties ___42___, gathering upward through a chain of unstable features, from dust devils (尘旋风) and windstorms up to continent-size eddies (旋风) ___43___ satellites can see.

The modern weather models work with a network of points of the order of sixty miles apart, and even so, some ___44___ data has to be guessed, since ground stations and satellites cannot see everywhere. But suppose the earth could be covered with sensors spaced one foot apart, rising at one-foot ___45___ all the way to the top of the atmosphere. Suppose every sensor gives perfectly ___46___ readings of temperature, pressure, dampness, and any other quantity a meteorologist (气象工作者) would want. Exactly at noon a(n) ___47___ powerful computer takes all the data and ___48___ what will happen at each point at 12.01, then 12.02, then 12.03 …

The computer will still be unable to predict whether Princeton, New Jersey, will have sun or rain on a day one month away. At noon the spaces between the sensors will ___49___ alterations that the computer will not know about, tiny variations from the ___50___. By 12.01, those alterations will already have created small errors one foot away. Soon the errors will have multiplied to the ten-foot scale, and so on up to the size of the globe.

He felt that one learns by observing, and tried to make his dream come true in the year 1909, when he started providing accommodation for his students in inns, farmhouses and the like.

The first youth hostel was opened in Schirrmann’s own school in Altena, after which it was 42 by a permanent hostel in Altena Castle. Schirrmann went on to 43 the German Youth Hostel Association in the year 1919. By this time, the idea of the youth hostel had 44 far and wide, all over the lands of Europe and further.

And then, in the year 1932, a(n) 45 organization called the International Youth Hostel was founded in Amsterdam, which consisted of youth hostels from Switzerland, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, Norway, Britain, Ireland, France, Czechoslovakia, Denmark and Belgium. Richard Schirrmann became its chairman in 1933.

The idea of the youth hostel is for young people who are on nature trips to get 46 accommodation in exchange for some money and a helping hand with the domestic chores(家务活). These hostels were said to

build character and a sense of independence, as the youth who stayed in them got the 47 to see how other people lived as well as to help to do work.

Youth hostels are also places to meet and make new friends. They have no class 48 and everyone has to do their share. Here, wealth and position does not help you gain 49 , but friendliness does. The friendlier you are, the more you learn from the 50 of staying in a youth hostel. 41. K 42. J 43. D 44. A 45. B 46. H 47. C 48. G 49. I 50.F

Many artists, however, would prove that there has always been a warm relationship between the 41 areas of human activity. For example, in the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were 42 close. Artists were invited to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets, but sometimes it was the musicians who were inspired by the work of 43 painters. Of the musical compositions as responses to the visual arts, perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition.

Mussorgsky 44 the piece in 1874 after the death, at the age of 39, of the artist Victor Hartman. Thought their friendship had not been a particularly long-lasting one, Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann’s 45 death. The following year the Mussorgsky try to 46 his grief by writing something in 47 of Hartmann.

The exhibition served as Mussorgsky’s inspiration. The ten pieces that make up Pictures at an Exhibition are 48 as symbols rather than representation of the paintings in the exhibition. Between each is a promenade (舞曲中的行进), as the composer walks from one painting to another. The music is sometimes witty and playful, sometimes almost alarming and frightening. Thought a range of surprising 49 ,Mussorgsky manages to 50 the spirit of the artist and his work. 41. C 42. J 43.D 44.G 45. K46. B 47.F 48.H 49. E 50. I

Aside from being depressing, the way to __41__ weight loss isn’t by feeling deprived.

Scientists say that people who started off the day with a __42__ felt fuller and more satisfied, and that led to their sticking with the program as the day went on. Being hungry is no way to start your day, so __43__ up with protein and a mouthful of something sweet. And most of all, enjoy! Sleep your way to weight loss

Dr. Andrew Caloin, one expert of Mayo Clinic study, is quoted as saying, ―If individuals are seeking to maintain a healthy weight or to lose weight, they should seek to get enough sleep on a __44__ basis.‖

If you find it tricky to wind down at night, turn off the __45__ and engage in relaxing activities, like taking a bath or listening to __46__ music. Journal to drop pounds

The best __47__ for a dieter? Pen and paper! Women who wrote down everything they ate lost more weight than those who didn’t track their food intake. Journaling makes you accountable and more aware of what you’re

eating, so it makes sense that it’ll keep you from __48__ chewing if you aren’t actually hungry. Even a tiny bit of exercise helps your health

Even 20 to 30 minutes of physical activity most days of the weeks (broken up into smaller chunks is fine) reduces your risk for all sorts of physical ills. And even 20 minutes a week can improve your mood. That really stuck with me. It’s easy to criticize ourselves or burn out if we make goals that are __49__ hard to achieve, but walking a few times a week is __50__ – and meaningful, too.

This is the kind of statistic that 41 love, but it doesn’t really tell us anything about why so many people like to buy so many things online.

Is it because its easy? Is it because of the 42 selection? Is it because we want to feel 43 to others without leaving the house?

Taobao was in fact a 44 to ebay’s entrance into the Chinese market in 2003. Jack Ma (马云) knew that he knew China better than the Americans did, and that Taobao could beat ebay at its own game here. He was right, and Jack Ma has helped to 45 the nature of online commerce in China—what it looks like, how it works, and, most 46 , who its users are. Taobao’s aesthetic (美学) is distinctive, and has influenced and inspired competitors in China and around the world. The way it works is also different from other 47 online retailers (零售店) . But the real genius of Taobao lies in its 48 of its users. What it looks like and how it works, after all, were 49 with the users in mind: a young, increasingly ―connected‖ and increasingly wealthy Chinese generation.

When they designed Taobao, Jack Ma and his team realized that many young people in China strongly 50 social interaction with their peers, so they made such interaction—everything from messaging to live chats to recommendations and reviews—a core part of the Taobao shopping experience.

But with ___41___ numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness, it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively (不引人注目地) and leave no mark.

Wild camping is not permitted in many places, ___42___ in crowded lowland Britain. Wherever you are, find out about organizations ___43___ for managing wild spaces, and ___44___ them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. For example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland, but in England

you must ask the landowner’s ___45___, except in national parks.

Camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, ___46___ bad weather, and making food without modern conveniences. A busy, fully-equipped campsite seems to go against this, so ___47___ out smaller, more remote places with easy ___48___ to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still, find a campsite with no road access: walking in makes a real adventure.

Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to ___49___ a good night’s sleep. Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment. Try to use an area where people have ___50___ camped before rather than creating a new spot. Always consider what influence you might have on the natural world. Avoid damaging plants. A good campsite is found, not made—changing it should be unnecessary.

There will be some people who come to you with unconnected knowledge, talking about, say, Vitamin B12 and other modern__41__. When they ask advice, begin at that level. Unless you start at their own level, they will not be able to understand. You must explain to them in scientific terms the effects of the food they eat, and how they need to __42__it.

You have to train yourself to be very__43__. Staying at one level is not being a free man. If we stay at a very high level all the time, that is not practical. A limitless person goes __44__from one level of thinking to another, according to his circumstances. To do this we must get rid of our unwillingness to change our way of thinking or behavior, become friends with everyone, and have the same loving feelings for everyone. Then we can give advice to all kinds of people. If there is someone or something you dislike, you are still__45__, and your ability to give advice is reduced. For anyone, the same. A free person acts like that.

You cannot stay with a sick person all the time. You must __46__ a person’s freedom as much as you can. If people really want to die, let them—it is their freedom. The point is never to become an authority__47__; remain a friend or advisor. People should not come back __48__for consultation; if they do, your advice has been incomplete—you did not know how to give the __49__advice about freedom. If they do not understand that, sick people become slaves; they are still afraid inside, and are__50__. That is no way to build a healthy world and help people become happy and free. 41—50 HAEJD GKBFC A. revealed B. counts C. responsible D. release E. virtually F. extent G. annually H. extinct I. extends J. monitor K. realized In the time that records have been kept of bird populations, 20 percent of all species have gone 41 . More are likely to follow. In March the 42 of a large-scale, 24-year survey gave one of the clearest pictures yet of the decline of Australian and Asian shorebirds, including the long-distance migrants (候鸟) that are most difficult to 43 . The results of the survey are awful. Every October for more than two decades, teams from the University of New South Wales in Australia counted birds from an airplane flown low over 130,000 square miles of wetlands in the eastern third of the continent. Their 44 showed a steady decline, beginning in the mid-1980s. By 2006 the number of migratory shorebirds had dropped by 73 percent and the number of Australia’s resident of shorebirds had fallen by 81 percent. ―The 45 of the decline took us by surprise,‖ says evolutionary ecologist Silke Nebel

of the University of Western Ontario in London, the lead author of the report.

The survey 46 that inland wetlands were more important to both resident and migratory birds than had been 47 , and that wetland loss from damming (筑坝) and the diversion (分散) of river water for irrigation was at least in part 48 for the shorebird decline in Australia. But wetlands are becoming smaller in countries all along the major flyway that 49 from eastern Siberia to New Zealand, the study’s authors note, so protecting the 8 million birds that use the corridor 50 will require an international solution.

Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts of saving __43__ seconds in handling tasks.

All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the __44__ feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind on another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may send harmful radiation into our brains, a __45__ we do not like to think about.

However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems.

Search the Web and research the 45 of the company and the people who you think are going to be interviewing you. Learn exactly what it is that they do and how you would fit in with the company. Most importantly, try to understand the ―culture‖ of the company, which is to say its underlying 46 ; the HR departments often state missions and give 47 statements.

Just as important is your own personal preparation. Think about the key things you want to communicate and why you would be ideal for the job. Think about how you can sound 50 without sounding desperate -- how you can sell yourself.

Generally, wear a suit (and also a tie for guys), but the dress code depends on the job you are going for. When you study the company culture, check what is expected in this area also.

E A. investments F. back B. enough G. relevant C. unconditional D. degree H. doubly I. commitment E. loyalty J. promoted K. demonstrate Although many companies offer tuition repayment, most companies only repay employees for classes that are 41_____ to their position. This is a very limiting policy. A company that repays employees for all college credit courses—whether job related or not—offers a service not only to the employees, but to the entire company.

One good reason for giving employees 42 _____ tuition repayment is that it shows the company’s commitment to its employees. In today’s economy, where job security is a thing of the past and employees feel more and more expendable, it is important for a company to 43 _____ to its employees that it cares. The best way to do this is with concrete 44 _____ in them. In turn, this commitment to the betterment of company employees will create greater employee 45_____. A company that puts out funds to pay for the education of its employees will get its money 46_____ by having employees stay with the company longer. It will reduce employee turnover, because even employees who don’t take advantage of the tuition repayment program will be more loyal to their company just knowing that their company cares 47_____ to pay for their education. Most importantly, the company that has an unrestricted tuition repayment program will have higher quality employees. Although these companies do indeed run the risk of losing money on employees who go on to another job in a different company as soon as they get their 48_____, more often than not, the employee will stay with the company.

And even if employees do leave after graduation, it generally takes several years to complete any degree program. Thus, even if the employee leaves upon graduating, throughout those years, the employer will have a more sophisticated, more intelligent, and therefore more valuable and productive employee. And, if the employee stays, that education will 49_____ benefit the company: Not only is the employee more educated, but now that employee can be 50_____ so the company doesn’t have to fill a high-level vacancy from the outside. Open positions can be filled by people who already know the company well. Though unconditional tuition repayment requires a significant investment on the employer’s part, it is perhaps one of the wisest investments a company can make.

In order to catch NASA’s eye, would-be astronauts must not only stand out in required skills and pass physical and psychological exams, but also find unique ways to __41__ themselves from the harsh competition.

NASA’s requirements for becoming an astronaut have changed over the years. Originally, it __42__ candidates with a military flight background, with at least 1,000 hours spent in command of a jet aircraft. In 1978, however, NASA __43__ its focus to a more varied group of astronauts: scientists and engineers with at least three years of experience in their respective fields.

During the years of shuttle missions, everyone had a __44__: some would focus on robotics, others on spacewalks or maintenance. To work on the space station, astronauts must be able to perform all tasks, which encourage __45__ to acquire different experiences. Jeanette Epps, an astronaut, studied aerospace engineering, worked at Ford Motor Company and took a job with the CIA before joining NASA. She says astronauts’ varied backgrounds __46__ to their ability to adapt and learn anything quickly.

After ensuring that candidates are U.S. citizens and that they satisfy __47__ education and experience requirements, the selection committee enters a gray area. ―We’re not really looking for one thing, just a good mix of things,‖ said Duane Ross, the manager for astronaut candidate selection and training.

To the committee, candidates who take on __48__ outside of the workplace demonstrate curiosity and energy. Many astronauts who don’t have a military background do hold a(n) __49__ piloting license. Some are enthusiastic mountain climbers, scuba divers or skiers. Others are musicians, dancers, or play competitive sports. Choosing to __50__ themselves to different, extreme environments counts as another way to stand out from the crowd.

The French shake hands with everyone(family, children, strangers), at home, on the way to work, at work, on leaving work, on the way home from work, etc. Thus, in an office , perhaps a dozen people, no work will be done for the first half hour while 42 who have not met since the day before, remind each other who they are. However, it is important to remember with whom one has shaken hands on any one day. The French 43 it as extremely bad manners to shake hands twice, as though one had not taken enough 44 for the first time.

It is still the 45 to say ―Bonjour‖ and ―Au revoir‖ to others when entering or leaving a shop or bar. This is not because the French are too 46 . It is because they see acknowledging(注意) the existence of others as a way of 47 being rude. This may seem unbearably slight to others, but to the French it is most important.
