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 (跳过) breakfast, and they have a lot 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（装填） with vegetables, and you just eat 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 (吃得过多) later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of getting 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 get the fat-burning effects.The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means_______.
| A．food left after a meal | B．things left undone |
| 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．Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast. |
| C．There are some easy ways of losing weight. |
| D．Eating vegetables helps save energy. |
According to the last paragraph, it is important to_______.
| A．be careful about what you eat | B．eat calorie-controlled food |
| C．heat up food before eating it | D．eat something for breakfast |
The text is written mainly for those_______.
| A．who want to lose weight | B．who go to work early |
| C．who stay up late | D．who eat before sleep |
A boy named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a workmate was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car，Paul？”he asked.
Paul answered，“Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas．”The boy was surprised．“You mean it didn’t cost you anything？Boy，I wish…”He stopped．
Of course Paul knew that he would wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish，”the boy went on，“that I could be a brother like that．”Then they got on the car.
After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining，said，“Paul，would you mind driving in front of my house？” Paul smiled a little and thought he wanted to show off. But Paul was wrong again.
"Will you stop where those two steps are？ the boy asked．
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back. He was carrying his little handicapped brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is，Buddy，just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

| I like traveling and I have traveled a lot around China. During the trip, I often find that a number of Chinese don’t have good public manners(举止). They always talk loudly on the phone and smoke everywhere. The worst is that they often break the rules in public. For example, when I traveled in Hong Kong in January this year, I saw a kid eating noodles on the underground, which is against the rules. However, the kid’s mother didn’t think he did wrong. Can you believe it? Let’s improve our public manners. (Mike, Shenzhen) |
| I am a 14-year-old boy from a poor village in Fuyang, Anhui Province. Like many other left-behind children(留守儿童) in China, l live with my grandparents now. My father went to work in Shanghai several years ago. Last year, my mother went there to care for him because his health is not as good as before. They tell me to listen to my grandparents and call me about twice a month to ask about my study. I really miss my parents and I hope I can afford to go to school in Shanghai. I think every child needs parents’ love and care. (Wu Peigen, Anhui Province) |
