An hour’s extra sleep a night can shave 270 calories off people’s daily diets, new research suggests—the equivalent of around three chocolate digestive biscuits. Over three years, this could lead to a weight loss of 26 pounds—simply by sleeping more, the researchers said.
A team from the University of Chicago wanted to look at how sleep interacts with obesity and so carried out a clinical trial with 80 adults. Writing in the journal Jama Internal Medicine, they found that young, overweight adults who habitually slept fewer than 6.5 hours a night were able to add an extra 1.2 hours of sleep per night after undergoing counselling to improve their sleeping habits.
The results showed that getting more sleep reduced people’s overall intake by an average of 270 calories per day, with some people consuming 500 fewer calories. Dr Esra Tasali, from the University of Chicago’s sleep centre, said the study had not intended to look at weight loss.
“But even within just two weeks, we have quantified evidence showing a decrease in caloric intake and a negative energy balance—caloric intake is less than calories burned.” she said. “If healthy sleep habits are kept over longer period. this would lead to clinically important weight loss over time. Many people are working hard to find ways to decrease their caloric intake to lose weight—well, just by sleeping more, you may be able to reduce it considerably.
The study did not attempt to restrict people’s diets. Instead, they slept in their own beds, tracked their sleep with wearable devices, and otherwise followed a normal lifestyle without any instructions on diet or exercise. Dr Tasali said that limiting the use of devices such as mobile phones before bedtime helped people get more sleep. She added. “We saw that after just a single sleep counselling session. participants could change their bedtime habits enough to lead to an increase in sleep time.”
28. Why did the researchers carry out the study
A．To find how to reduce weight.
B．To know the proper sleep time.
C．To learn about healthy sleep habits.
D．To study the link between sleep and obesity.
29. What’s Dr Tasali’s attitude to the findings of the study
A．Doubtful.
B．Confident.
C．Negative.
D．Ambiguous.
30. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Participants should go on a restricted diet and do more exercise.
B．Limiting the use of digital devices is the best way to get enough sleep.
C．Participants tracked their sleep without disturbing their normal lifestyle.
D．A single sleep counselling session is useless for participants to change.
31. What’s the best title of the text
A．A Strange Way to Lose Your Weight
B．Young and Overweight Adults Need More Sleep
C．Forming a Regular Sleep Habit Is Good for Your Health
D．Cut 270 Calories by Sleeping for an Extra Hour Every Night

In my childhood, my parents would take me to watch games. I loved the excitement I would feel when we went to watch these events, especially when the scores were close until the very end of the game. My meaningful attempt at sports began with T-ball at the age of three, progressed to the basketball court at six, and finally turned into a firm devotion to the game of baseball from the age of eight onward.
One of my most memorable moments was at the World Series when I was eleven and played on the Texas Rattlers. The July heat was unbearable. It was the semi-final game. Sweating like a pig, we ran into the dugout for our last at-bat (上场击球); we were down one run now. I was the second hitter and captain of the team, and I was ready for this moment. In the next few seconds, I had the chance to show my strength as a hitter and my ability to be a leader under pressure by hitting a home run! We carried the day!
As the team captain, I remember the time I had to give a speech to my team because we had lost an important game. I was nervous, but I knew it was my responsibility to cheer my team up when they were cast down. This experience has shaped my mind, making me become more independent, so I’m obtaining the ability to talk like a leader in front of my team and a group. Sports get it through my head that you can’t win at everything in life all the time.
On and of the field, I am more iron-willed, disciplined (遵守纪律的) and respectful, and a better leader. I have had so many awesome experiences through sports, which have taught me much and prepared me for the future. The memories of all the trips and diverse experiences I have had will be with me for a lifetime.
32. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph
A．He often switched sports.
B．He was a gifted child in sports.
C．He had a busy childhood.
D．He was fond of sports from childhood.
33. How did the author feel during the semi-final at the World Series
A．Stressed and tired.
B．Proud and confident.
C．Unbearable and down.
D．Surprised and energetic.
34. What was tough for the author according to paragraph 3
A．Leading his team to face failure.
B．Giving a speech before the team.
C．Improving his leadership qualities.
D．Overcoming his own nervousness.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Interesting Life of Sports
B．Life Lessons from Sports
C．Deep Affection for Sports
D．Special Moments in Sports

Can Skipping Dinner Help You Lose Weight
If your phone needs a software upgrade, you would likely run the operation when its fully charged. 36_______ A new study finds human energy systems operate in a similar fashion: Our metabolisms likely function best in the morning when our bodies are fresh and fully charged.
Specifically, people who eat larger breakfasts and adopt an 18-hour overnight fast, say from 1 pm to 7 am, have the lowest body weights.37_______
Contrary to the popular belief, these extended overnight fasts seem to help increase metabolic function. Lead author Dr Hana Kahleova finds meals consumed in the evening, compared to those eaten in the morning, result in higher blood sugar, which happens when insulin cannot process glucose into energy. 38_______ What does this mean for you Depending on your goals and health status, you may consider rearranging your meals. If you're looking to lose 10 pounds, the 18- to 19-hour overnight fast might work well for you. 39_______ So you could experiment with skipping one meal each day.
40_______ People who maintain highly active lifestyles, for instance, and need adequate fuel to power morning runs or help muscle fibers recover from intense evening workouts like weightlifting might not benefit. Still, the concept provides an insight into how our bodies use fuel efficiently.
A．Of course, this approach isn't for everyone.
B．So, let's say you consume 1,500 to 1,800 calories a day.
C．Those who ate later in the day, after 6 pm, had higher body weights.
D．Otherwise, your phone and its software would take longer to sync.
E．This means eating a larger breakfast, a medium-sized lunch and no dinner.
F．Like a block in a machine extra glucose slows our metabolic process down.
G．The advice to eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar has new science behind it.

Why do Chinese people eat dumplings during the winter solstice (冬至) Was egg-fried rice once considered a dish reserved for emperors The answers 56_______ these questions can be found in the videos of a food vlogger on a Chinese social media platform. Created by a couple; these videos dig into the fascinating stories behind everyday Chinese dishes. By January, the couple’s videos 57_______ (appeal) to over 400,000 followers,
Without prior social-media experience, the couple first considered becoming a video content creator out of a deep 58_______ (curious) about food.

But more than recipes or flavors, 60_______ fascinated her were the stories behind each dish.
One of their biggest challenges is verifying sources. When researching dumplings, for example, they 61_______ (constant) came across the popular claim that dumplings were invented by Zhang Zhongjing, 62_______ renowned physician of the Eastern Han Dynasty. “But that doesn’t really hold up,” the wife said. “Similar foods were already documented in the Western Han Dynasty.”
After reviewing historical 63_______ (record), the couple concluded that wrapping fillings in dough (生面团) likely emerged when cooking fuel was in short supply, and people needed a much 64_______ (efficient) way to prepare meals. Over time, this everyday practice took on cultural meaning and became 65_______ (tie) to seasonal rituals (习惯), eventually evolving into the tradition of eating dumplings during the winter solstice.

Josie and I wanted a dog more than anything else on Earth. At night, we’d slip out to the roof to talk about dogs after our parents went to bed.
One summer night, as we sat together on the roof, Josie saw something. “What’s that ” She pointed down toward a dark shadow on our driveway. I followed her finger and saw a big, black dog with long, shaggy hair. We climbed down the roof. Josie made a little kissing noise and held out her hand. The dog approached slowly. When it was close enough to pet, I petted it gently. It was so skinny that I could just feel every bone, and its fur was messy and full of dirt. It seemed to be a homeless dog.
We decided to bring it some food. I slid into the kitchen to fill a bowl with milk and a couple of raw eggs. As soon as the dog finished, it disappeared into the bushes.
The next day, we used all our pocket money to buy dog food, including two cans of Woof Buddies, a small bag of kibble (狗粮), and beef tailbones. We hid the food as we were afraid our parents wouldn’t approve of us feeding a homeless dog.
That night, as soon as we set a plate down, the dog appeared almost as if from nowhere. It nosed the food, but for some reason the dog wouldn’t eat it.
“Come on,” I said. “Let’s leave the dog alone and see what happens.” So we went in and hid to see. Unexpectedly, it grabbed the plate in its mouth and ran away. By the time we rushed back outside, the dog and the food were long gone.
This went on a long time — four or five nights, maybe. The most unusual thing was that even though the dog kept taking the food, it didn’t seem to be putting on any weight. Instead, it was getting even skinnier.
Then came that special night. The dog came, but this time it barked (犬吠) at us, whined (哀叫), and ran back and forth. I ran my hand through its fur, “What’s it What do you want ”
Paragraph 1: The dog barked again, ran toward the bushes, and turned to see if we were following.

Paragraph 2: Seeing this, we decided to take it and its babies home together.

Should Community Service be a Requirement for Graduation
In my opinion, community service should be made a graduation requirement for high school students.
Firstly, it offers us a precious chance to step out of the campus and connect with society, helping us gain valuable life experience. Secondly, taking part in voluntary work cultivates our sense of responsibility and kindness. We can learn to care for others and contribute to the community.
In short, community service benefits us greatly. Therefore, it is necessary for students to finish it before graduation.
第二节 读后续写 参考范文
Paragraph 1:
The dog barked again, ran toward the bushes, and turned to see if we were following. Curious and confused, we followed it quietly into the thick bushes. To our great surprise, we spotted four tiny weak puppy dogs lying on the dry grass. They looked starving and helpless, trembling slightly in the night breeze. It suddenly dawned on us why the mother dog always took away the food but never gained weight. She had been selflessly saving all the food for her poor babies all these days. Moved deeply, we gently stroked the tired mother dog and its little puppies.
Paragraph 2:
Seeing this, we decided to take it and its babies home together. We carefully carried the little puppies in our arms and guided the mother dog back to our house. Fortunately, our parents were touched by the dog’s maternal love and agreed to adopt them. We prepared warm nests and enough food for the lovely dogs. In the following days, we took good care of them patiently. Gradually, the puppies grew strong and lively. This special experience taught us the greatness of love and selflessness, which became our most precious memory.
