    Although I was never a thin girl,I was always fit because I played basketball from the 5th grade right through college. But after graduation,I got married and gave up playing basketball. Then I started eating too much. In 10 years,my weight increased from 175 to 245 pounds. What was even worse,my son picked up a bad eating habit.As a four-year-old boy,he liked having French fries because he often saw me put those things into my mouth.

     I read an article in my husband’s health magazine. It said that being too fat can shorten a person's life by five to ten years. That was scary. I didn't want to leave my son because of my poor eating habits. After that,every time I wanted to have French fries,I would think that I could be here a little bit longer if I just ate better.

     One of my friends told me that an organization was offering a free course to help people lose weight,so I decided to join it. The teacher gave each type of food a certain number of calories? and how many calories we needed to eat a day. After I came home from the first class,I calculated the calories of food in my meal. If I wanted,I could have pizza every night. But when I learned that one piece had a lot of calories,I decided not to eat as many pieces as I wanted.

Finally,I succeeded in losing 50 pounds. In February,2012,I was on the cover of a health magazine. And my husband always told other people that I looked better than ever.

B 閱讀提示:從五年級到大學(xué)，“我”一直打籃球。結(jié)婚后放棄了打籃球，并且開始吃得很多。結(jié)果在10年之內(nèi)，“我”的體重從175 磅增加到245磅。在“我”的影響下，兒子也養(yǎng)成了不好的飲食習(xí)慣。

“我”通過閱讀丈夫的健康雜志意識(shí)到肥胖的危害，并通過聽課知道每個(gè)人每天需要多少卡路里的食物。“我”經(jīng)過努力，最終減肥成功，并上了健康雜志的封面。

1. B推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第一段第四句話“In 10 years,my weight increased from 175 to 245 pounds. ”可推知，在過去的 10 年內(nèi)，作者的重量增加了70磅。故正確答案選B.

2. A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)短文第一段第六句話“As a fouryearold boy,he liked having French fries because he often saw me put those things into my mouth. ”可推知，“我”的兒子養(yǎng)成了一個(gè)壞的飲食習(xí)慣。故“picked叩”意為“formed”。

3. B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段第二句話“It said that being too fat can shorten a person's life by Hve to ten years. ”可知，太胖能縮短一個(gè)人數(shù)年的生命。故正確答案選B.

4. C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段第二句話“The teacher gave each type of food a certain number of calories,and how many calories we needed to eat a day. ”可知，老師告訴學(xué)生們他們每天需要多少卡路里的食物，故正確答案選C.

5. D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段第二句話“But after graduation,I got married and gave up playing basketball. ”可知，結(jié)婚以后，作者放棄了打籃球。故正確答案選D.

     Thousands of years ago,the ancient people of Babylon and Egypt studied the stars in the sky and created the zodiac. It was first used to tell time. Later,many people used the stars to describe a person's character and to foretell what would happen in the future.

     A person's star sign is connected to his or her birth date. Some believe this sign can tell us about a person's character. For example,some think that a person born under the sign of Aries (between 21st March and 20th April) is adventurous. A person born under Cancer (between 22nd June and 23rd July) is kind and home-loving.
