? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Is Stress Making You Fat?
The Trigger That Causes the Most Trouble
? ?Our ancestors ate to survive. They ate because they were hungry or maybe to celebrate a victory over a warring tribe. We eat because we’re hungry, too, but also when we’re stressed, angry, bored, depressed, frustrated, and busy.
? ?Stress may actually be the eating trigger that causes the most trouble. Many of us have high levels of chronic stress, whether it’s from work, relationship troubles or to-do lists that are longer than Route 66. Our bodies respond to this stress the same way our ancestors’ bodies did: triggering "fight or flight" chemicals in the brain that lead to calorie accumulation and fat storage. But the difference is that we have plenty of food at our disposal. So we end up continually upgrading the size of our storage unit.
? ?When you have chronic stress, your body steps up its production of cortisol （皮质醇） and insulin （胰岛素）. Your appetite increases, and so do the chances you’ll engage in eating in the form of high-calorie sweets and fats. That, in turn, makes you store more far, pumping even more of it into the liver. This creates a resistance to insulin, which makes you secrete （分泌） more insulin to compensate. And that makes you hungrier than a muzzled wolf.
? ?When you try to combat stress with food, you activate the reward center of your brain. But after that initial feel- good system wears off, you’ll reach again for the same thing that made you feel good, calm and relaxed in the first place: more food. That’s why it’s a myth that overeating is triggered mainly by extreme hunger. It’s a myth that cravings are dictated by our taste buds. And it’s a myth that we can resist temptations if we just put our minds to it.
? ?Your goal: to keep your feel-good hormones （荷尔蒙） level. That will provide a steady state of satisfaction so that you never experience those huge hormonal highs and lows that make you search for good-for-your-brain, bad for-your-belly foods. The following tips will help.
Make Foods Work in Your Favor
? ?Foods have different effects on your stomach, your blood and your brain. Here are some that may help your hunger and the brain chemicals that affect it.
? ?Fish and walnuts are rich in fatty acids, which have long been known as cholesterol clearers. But they’ve also been shown to help with depression in pregnant women. Depression contributes to emotional overeating. Eating foods that contain the fatty acids may help lift our spirits.
? ?Green tea contains catechins （儿茶酚）, thought to inhibit the breakdown of fats as well as the production of a substance that can trigger hunger. One study shows that drinking three glasses of green tea a day can help you re duce body weight by almost five percent in three months.
Sleep Yourself Slim
? ?When your body doesn’t get the seven to nine hours of sleep it needs every night to become refreshed, it looks for other ways to compensate for your brain not secreting the normal amounts of feel-good chemicals. How does it typically do this? By craving sugary foods that will give you an immediate release of these chemicals.
? ?The lack of sleep throws off your entire system. It can become an even bigger factor as you age. So make sure you get enough shut-eye. It can help keep you thin.
Variety: The Spice of Life?
? ?Variety may be the spice of life, but it can also lead to overeating. When you have a lot of choices for a meal, it’s easier to slip out of good eating habits and into bad ones. When you sit down at a dinner and are presented with a menu that’s the size of a phone book, it’s easy to give in.
? ?One way to help: Eliminate the choices for at least one meal a day. Pick the meal you rush through most. For most people, it’s lunch. So find a healthy lunch you really like―salad with chicken and olive oil, or turkey on whole-grain bread―and have it every day.
? ?When you have meals rich in flavor variety, it takes more and more calories to keep you full. Think of Thanks giving, when you eat a lot of different things, stuff yourself and still have room for pumpkin pie. When we experience meals with lots of diverse flavors, we tend to cat more to satisfy our taste buds.
? ?No one wants to get bored with food. But if you make this a habit for at least one meal a day, it will decrease your temptations and help you stop thinking about food so often. In fact, for our patients, we usually prescribe two meals that are the same each day. It’s one of the ways to train your brain so that your habits will follow.
Find Substitutes That Satisfy
? ?If we all had the ability to make rational choices, there would be no need for the multibillion-dollar diet industry. Eating can be an emotional action. Experts say that people under the most stress tend to gain the most weight.
? ?The exceptions? The super-wealthy stressed, such as actors and CEOs, who can afford nutritionists, chefs and person al trainers! But you don’t need all that. And you don’t have to starve or deny yourself. Instead, keep healthful foods near by, things like juice, a handful of nuts, pieces of fruit. And clear the fridge and kitchen of food with high-calorie.
Walk This Way
? ?The root of a physical activity plan is a minimum of 30 minutes of walking a day, and then telling somebody a bout it after you’re done. You’ll do it not only for the physical effects but also for the positive psychological effects, such as an increase in your self-esteem. Walk for 30 minutes―it’s easy, doable and maintainable, and it’s a first step out of the tornado and back into the game of life.
Be Touched
? ?On both a physical and an emotional level, seek out positive interactions with other people. Evidence shows that increased amounts of social bonding hormone may decrease blood pressure and lower the effects of stress. This raises levels of a substance that helps control your appetite. And research shows you can boost social bonding hormone levels through an increase in social interaction and touch. Even a massage may help.
Get Lost in Your Mind
? ?When you feel the urge to eat, sit and think about your life and what’s driving you to pick up a fork or open the fridge. Would you shove that stuff into a friend’s or a family member’s body? For some people, meditation or prayer enhances your power to satisfy the drive to cat.
See the Naked Truth
? ?Stand naked in front of the mirror, without sucking in your belly. For most of us, this exercise is as uncomfortable as a coach-class airline seat. But we need to realize that healthy weight is where we want to be, not fashion magazine weight. That means we have to get comfortable with the fact that every woman isn’t as light as a kite and every man won’t have the body of Michael Vick, football star.
? ?So look at your body. Next, draw an outline of your body shape, from both the side and front views. Ask your partner or a close friend to look at the shape you drew and tell you honestly if that’s approximately what your body looks like.
Enjoy a Bit
? ?If you’re going to eat something that’s bad for you, enjoy it. Roll it around in your mouth. We suggest taking a piece of dark, 70 percent chocolate and contemplating―as a healthy stress reliever and as a way to reward yourself with something sweet. It’s a small but effective way of feeling good without clearing out any old thing you can find. Bad foods are okay―once in a while.（1）We modem people eat not only when we are hungry but also when we are in bad mood.（2）We modem people’s bodies react to stress in different ways from our ancestors’ bodies did.（3）Continuing stress can make people’s bodies increase the production of cortisol and insulin.（4）When people try to combat stress, their brain needs a good rest, so listening to music is a better way to combat stress.（5）Eating fish and walnuts may help keep our spirits up, because they contains ______.（6）People consume more and more calories to make us feel that we are full at meals that are rich in ______.（7）According to experts, people who are under the most ______. incline to put on most weight.（8）Both blood pressure and the effects of stress will be decreased by the increase of ______.（9）Some people’s power to satisfy his or her urge to eat can be enhanced by ______.（10）It is necessary for us to know healthy weight is not ______.单选集题：&Part Ⅲ Listening Comprehension

Directions: {{I}}In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage care fully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words on Answer Sheet 2.{{/I}}
? ?A strange thing about humans is their capacity for blind rage. Rage is presumably an emotion resulting from survival instinct, but the surprising thing about it is that we do not deploy （施展） it against other animals. If we en counter a dangerous wild animal―a poisonous snake or a wild cat―we do not fly into a temper. If we are unarmed, we show fear and
if we are suitably armed, we attack, but in a rational manner, not in a rage. We reserve rage for our own species. It is hard to see any survival value in attacking one’s own, but if we take ac count of the long competition, which must have existed between our own subspecies and others like Neanderthal man （尼安德特人）―indeed others still more remote from us than Neanderthal man―human rage becomes more comprehensible.
? ?In our everyday language and behavior there are many reminders of those early struggles. We are always using the words "us and them". "Our" side is perpetually trying to do down the "other" side. In games we artificially create other subspecies we can attack. The opposition of "us" and "them" is the touchstone of the two-party system of "democratic" politics. Although there are no very serious consequences to many of these modern psychological representations of the "us and them" emotion, it is as well to remember that the original aim was not to beat the other subspecies in a game but to exterminate it.
? ?The readiness with which humans allow themselves to be regimented has permitted large armies to be formed, which, taken together with the "us and them" blind rage, has led to destructive clashes within our subspecies itself. The First World War is an example in which Europe divided itself into two imaginary subspecies. And there is a similar extermination battle now in Northern Ireland. The idea that there is a religious basis for this clash is illusory, for not even the Pope has been able to control it. The clash is much more primitive than the Christian religion, much older in its emotional origin. The conflict in Ireland is unlikely to stop until a greater primitive fear is imposed from outside the community, or until the combatants （作战者） become exhausted.（1）Although blind rage of human being is perhaps the result of survival instinct, strangely enough, we seldom take it out on ______.（2）What is the likely reason for aiming our rage towards our own species?（3）The author thinks the words "us and them" indicate the perpetual struggle of one side to ______.（4）What is the consequence of the combination of man’s organization capability and his blind rage?（5）According to the author, the war in Northern Ireland is not for religious reasons, but for the ______.单项选择题：&Section B

Passage One
? ?The first American public high school, established in Boston in 1821, was only for boys. But as the high-school movement spread, new schools quickly became coed. "Almost right from the beginning, society believed in integration by sex. "says David Tyack, an education historian at Stanford University. Now a small group of educators―encouraged by studies that show boys and girls learn differently―are turning to single-sex classrooms as a way to re engage students, especially in low-income communities. One of the first to gain national attention was the Young Women’s Leadership School in New York’s East Harlem, now considered one of the best public schools in the city. Research on the effect of single-sex schools is mixed, and there are no studies on single-sox classrooms in schools. Experts who study single-sex schools say there’s considerable evidence that smaller class sizes would help just as much, especially for middle-class kids. But for boys from poor families, that extra attention and focus can make a difference, says Cornelius Riordan, a sociology professor at Providence College who is directing a study on single-sex schools for the U. S. Department of Education.
? ?Schools all over the country are experimenting with the idea. At Lloyd Memorial High School in Erlanger, Ky. , freshmen and sophomores were separated by gender last fall for all classes except one, their elective. At the end of the year, the consensus among teachers and the principal is that single-sex works. Students have mixed views. "You don’t have the distraction of boys sitting in your classroom," says Katie Brown, 15. "You can just come to class and you’re actually in it to learn, not to impress. "But after a joyful all-boys science class （the centerpiece was a generator sending off electric sparks）, 14-year-old Zack Craddock thought he would have had just as much fun if there were girls in the class. "I think it’s personal," he says. "Some guys would have acted the same and some guys would have acted different. I would have been the same."
? ?Principal John Riehemann originally backed the idea as a way to help boys, who were consistently lagging be hind in reading. One issue: too much of the material was girl-oriented. That led to the even more radical move of separating almost all classes. Riehemann said there were no objections from parents or teachers, and the experiment has worked so well that they’re expanding it to juniors in the fall.（1）By saying that "Students have mixed views" （Line 4,Para. 2）, the author means that ______.（2）Some educators begin to teach girls and boys separately because ______.（3）Studies in single-sex schools show that ______.（4）Lloyd Memorial High School’s experimentation with the idea of single-sex class ______.（5）According to David Tyack, the popular belief in education is that ______.简单单选题：&Passage Two
? ?Only in the past two centuries has the field of adult education acquired definite organization. Its relatively recent development results from numerous social trends―the general spread of public education, the intensification of economic competition with a resulting premium on skills, the complexities of national and international politics demanding constant study, the stimulating effects of urbanization, the opportunity offered by increased leisure time, and increased interest in educational activities on the part of many older men and women. Modern and formal adult education probably originated in European political groups and, after the Industrial Revolution, in vocational classes for workers. Continuation schools for workers in Germany and Switzerland were common. The folk high school in Denmark, founded by Bishop Grundtvig, stressed intellectual studies, and the Adult Schools of the Society of Friends in England （1845） fostered the education of the poor.
? ?The earliest American forms of adult education were the public lectures given in the lyceum （c. 1826） （学术讲演的会堂） and the Lowell Institute of Boston endowed by John Lowell （1836）. In 1873 the Chautauqua movement introduced the discussion group and modified lecture system. Free public lectures supported by the Dept. of Education of New York City were inaugurated in 1904. In 1926 the Carnegie Corporation organized the American Association for Adult Education, which later became the Adult Education Association of the U. S. A. In 1982 it merged with the National Association for Public Continuing Adult Education to form the American Association for Adult and Continuing Education. This group, through its research and publications, works not only to promote education as a lifelong learning process but also to systematize the methods and philosophy of the field.
? ?Federal funding and support for adult education have been provided through the Vocational Education Act （1963）, the Economic Opportunity Act （1964）, the Manpower Act （1965）, the Adult Education Act （1966, a mended 1970）, the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act （1973）, the Lifelong Learning Act （1976）, and for a broader spectrum of learners by the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Act （1984）. The Office of Vocational and Adult Education, under the U. S. Dept. of Education, administers grant, contract, and technical assistance programs for adult education, literacy, and occupational training. Most federal funding for these programs is administered through the states, counties, and individual communities. Other major federal providers of adult education are the Dept. of Agriculture and the Dept. of Defense.（1）Adult education develops fast recently partly because ______.
? ? A） people think it necessary to get diploma in order to find better jobs
? ? B） people regard it as a good way to kill time since they have more leisure time
? ? G） the easily changeable world politics requires fast update of knowledge
? ?
