So when Dawns employer decided to offer a one-year-long healthy weight program that focused on making lasting changes instead of a short-term diet, Dawn cant wait to try it. She lost 35 pounds in a year on the healthy weight program. However, more importantly, she learned many new eating habits that she liked and could continue with.An important part of Dawns program was setting realistic goals that she could turn into long-term habits. She recognized small changes she could make, such as eating an apple instead of a piece of bread for a morning snack. Changing how she thought about food also helped Dawn go from diet to healthy eating. Dawn doesnt refuse desserts and other types of food that might be considered bad for people on a diet. Instead, she has learned to take smaller amounts. Dawn also learned to pay attention to her hunger and fullness signals. Instead of eating until she feels full, she eats just enough to feel satisfied.Having someone she could turn to for support helped Dawn a lot. As part of her healthy weight program, Dawn was assigned (指派) a health coach(教练). This person helped Dawn eliminate things that might prevent her from staying with her healthy eating habits.

CHundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers. Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story? Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV. Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People dont want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents. Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers. 8. According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now? A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse. B. They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes. C. They watch TV or read newspapers. D. They listen to the radio every day. 9. The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that _ . A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaperB. people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaperC. people can read news stories in other countriesD. people can read news stories about their own country10. To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about? A. Two. B. Three. C. Five. D. Six. 11. According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV? A. Your teacher has got a cold. B. The bike in front of your house is lost.C. You often play football with your friends after school.D. A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasnt been caught. DInstagram is a social networking app made for sharing photos and videos from a smartphone. However, some people argue that Instagram is harmful to teens.Essena ONeill seemed to have a perfect life - at least online. The Australian teen had 500,000 Instagram followers. Her Internet fame led to a modeling contract(合同). Companies paid her to show their clothing in her photos.But in November 2015, Essena, then 18, shut down her Instagram account(账户). She cut off more than 2000 photos. “Ive spent the majority of my teenage life being attracted to social media,” she wrote. “ Im leaving Instagram.”Essena left a few photos online, and told the truth behind the photos she created. For example, she didnt eat all day before taking a picture in a bikini(比基尼泳装). She took that photo 100 times to make sure her stomach looked perfect. “Social media is not real life!” she says now.Seeing perfect-looking Instagram photos can make teens feel like they dont meet the standard of beauty. And if your photos dont get many “likes”, you might take it personally. Even Essena worried all the time about what others thought of her. Trying to appear perfect online made her feel alone. One day, she wrote, “I had never been more miserable(痛苦的).”Not everyone thinks that Instagrem is harmful, though. Some people say it might even be good for teens. Why? Unlike many ads and magazines, Instagram includes photos of all different kinds of people. That means youre more likely to see a photo of someone who looks like you.Plus, studies show that many people who use social media feel more connected to friends. And social media users are more likely to know about big events in the lives of friends and family. So maybe its OK to love Instagram as long as you love yourself too.12. According to the text, Instagram brought Essena _. A. a healthy lifestyle B. fame and money C. many true friends D. a perfect teenage life13. Why did Essena shut down her Instagram account at age 18? A. Because she was too busy. B. Because her shape changed. C. Because she faced great pressure. D. Because her photos were deleted14. Whats the authors attitude towards Instagram? A. Worried B. Curious C. Surprised D. Supportive15. What does the text mainly discuss? A. Should you be on a diet to look perfect? B. Should you make friends on social media? C. Should you give others “likes” on Instagram? D. Should you shut down your Instagram account?第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Are you happy?Happiness is important in our life. 16 Are you happy?
