Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers conclude that the French tend (易于) to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.

According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed (擠出) between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.

After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.

In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity - or extreme overweight - among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject (拒絕) older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% - and is growing.

1.In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?

A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.

B. They regard eating as a key part of their life style.

C. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.

D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.

2.This text is mainly about the relationship between ______.

A. children and adults B. Americans and the French

C. life style and obesity D. fast food and overweight

3.Where does this text probably come from?

A. A health report B. A book review

C. A TV interview D. A food advertisement

In Eastern Europe, blue jeans symbolize (象征) American culture and “the good life”. In Spain they are known as “cowboys”. In China, jeans are known as “niuzaiku”, also, “cowboy trousers”, which means they are connected with the American West cowboy culture and outdoor work.

Jeans are usually made from denim (粗布), but may also be made from other materials. The earliest known cloth for jeans was a thick cotton cloth from the Indians. At first they were working clothes. They became popular among teenagers in the 1950s. Today jeans are a very popular form of casual wear around the world and come in many styles and colors.

Jeans were first made in Genoa in Italy. The trousers were made for the Genoese navy (海軍) because they needed trousers which could be worn wet or dry, and whose legs could be easily rolled up while the men were cleaning the ships. These jeans would be washed by pulling them in large fishing nets behind the ship, and the sea water would make them white.

In the 1850s Levi Strauss, a business man living in San Francisco, was selling blue jeans under the “Levi’s” name to the coal workers of California.

During World War II, the coal workers liked jeans very much because they were strong and did not tear easily. In the 1950s, jeans became popular with young people in the United States. Wearing of blue jeans by teenagers was the symbol of rebels (反叛者) in TV programmes and movies. Some cinemas and restaurants refused to let people in if they wore blue jeans. In the 1980s, jeans finally became high fashion clothing, when famous designers started making their own styles of jeans, with their own labels on them. Sales of jeans went up and up.

1.From the first paragraph we know that ________.

A. cowboys wear jeans only

B. cowboys live a good life

C. American culture is cowboy culture

D. cowboy culture is usually related to the West of America

2.Jeans were first made in ______.

A. Italy B. America C. Spain D. China

3.From Paragraph 4 we know that “Levi’s” was ____.

A. the name of a worker

B. the brand (名牌) of a kind of jeans

C. the name of a kind of cloth

D. the nickname of a businessman

4.Why the people who wore blue jeans were refused to go into the cinema in the 1950s?

A. Because jeans were made for workers.

B. Because jeans were made of denim.

C. Because it was during the time of war.

D. Because wearing jeans was the symbol of rebels.

Michelle Obama, Kate Moss and Samantha Cameron are three of the most stylish﹙時(shí)髦的﹚ women on the planet because they have their daughters rather than their style. A new research has shown that women with daughters tend to be more stylish than mothers of sons; a fact partly because of the style advice their daughters offer as they get older.

78 percent of women over the age of 50 say they would be more than happy to let their daughters choose a complete outfit﹙全套衣裝﹚ for them. However, just five percent of women say they would turn to their sons for style advice, while 28 percent believe that mothers of boys are less fashionable than women with girls.

“Women who don’t have daughters become less interested in style as they grow older but having a daughter may keep alive her interest in looking great,” comments psychologist Honey Langcaster-James. “And, because of their close relationship, they also have a source of support and encouragement when it comes to their style decisions.”

More than a quarter of women believe that Mums who have sons are less fashion-conscious than Mums with daughters. The most common reasons for this are that daughters are more critical, offer good advice and inspiration, and add an element of competition to look the best while sons don’t seem to care and aren’t as strict as daughters.

Interestingly, although mothers tend to rely on their daughters’ style tips, their confidence isn’t reciprocated﹙互換﹚, with 40 percent of women between the age of 19 and 34 saying they wouldn’t allow their mothers to shop for them as what their mothers would choose for them would not be as good as they expected.

And although they might not appreciate the fashion advice, the research, which was conducted by online retailer Gray & Osbourn, showed that daughters do still need their mothers with 71 percent saying they chat to their female parent every day.

“In short, the research shows just how important relationships are between mothers and daughters,” added Langcaster-James, “and just how much women appreciate an honest and trustworthy opinion.”

1.The opening paragraph is mainly to show .

A. girls influence their mothers’ style decision

B. women with children are often less stylish

C. mothers like to follow their children’s advice

D. boys are actually better advisors than girls

2.Which of the following may Langcaster-James agree with?

A. Daughters usually love their mothers more than sons do.

B. It’s hard for boys to get along well with their mothers.

C. Mothers without daughters show less interest in style.

D. Girls are more independent than boys in some ways.

3.It can be inferred from the passage that girls .

A. show more interest in science than boys.

B. care more about what their mothers wear

C. can help a lot to solve family problems

D. are good at encouraging other people

4.By saying “their confidence isn’t reciprocated” in Paragraph 5, the author means that .

A. some women don’t like to choose clothes for their mothers

B. some women aren’t sure what to wear when attending a party

C. some women often show no confidence in themselves

D. some women would not like to follow their mothers’ style advice

5.What does the author mainly tell us in the passage?

A. It confuses many parents how to talk with their kids.

B. Daughters prefer to talk with their mums instead of dads.

C. It is important for parents to respect their children’s choice.

D. Mothers of girls are more fashionable than those of boys
