26、Children are often exposed to diet culture from a young age and its negative impacts can be long-lasting, according to Virginia Smith, author of a new book titled Fat Talk, Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture.

“Kids, at a very young age, start to become aware of body shaming,” Smith said. “The main factors of children’s future eating disorder (饮食失调) are kids’ being ashamed of their weight and their history of dieting in childhood.”

In Fat Talk, Smith argues that one way parents can fight back against this is to take a fresh look at the word “fat”. “We can understand ‘fat’ as just a neutral body descriptor, just like saying tall or short or brown hair, black hair…” Smith said. “If your child in a bigger body comes to you, and he says, ‘Am I fat?’ you should be honest with him and say, ‘You’re fat. And there’s definitely nothing wrong with that. We love your body just the way it is.’”

Another suggestion from Smith is for parents to change conversations with and in front of children at home. “We can say I’m not going to shame my body in front of my kids and I’m going to celebrate bodies in all shapes and sizes,” Smith recommended. David Anderson, a parenting expert, added, “So if you have a child who’s in a bigger body, talk about their strengths.” David continued, “Helping our children concentrate on how our bodies work, how they allow us to achieve our goals… these are things we can remind our kids about every single day.”

Often, diet conversations about size can be unavoidable for children, but David said parents can act as a shield between children and some of the most harmful messages behind diet culture. But as children grow older, David encourages parents to be honest with kids about their own struggles and not to pretend they know everything and that kids know nothing about diet culture.

【1】What might contribute to children’s future eating disorder?

A．Body shape and peer pressure.

B．Body image and parenting style.

C．Body change and food preference.

D．Body shame and dieting experience.

【2】What can be learned from paragraph 3?

A．Kids should make peace with their body image.

B．Kids should take pride in being overweight.

C．Parents should teach their kids honesty.

D．Parents should give “fat” a positive definition.

【3】What should kids focus on according to David Anderson?

A．Their body functions.

B．Their individual characters.

C．Their physical appearance.

D．Their career achievements.

【4】What does the underlined word “shield” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Editor.

B．Supporter.

C．Protector.

D．Connector.

27、Have you ever felt like others don’t understand your pain when they seem to be living a happy life? You’re not alone in feeling this way, but the truth is that happiness takes work.【1】

Live in the present moment

Your past is important to learn from.【2】 At the end of the day, though, the only thing that exists outside of your head is the present. In order to ground yourself in the now, you can practise noticing what’s around you, how you’re feeling, why you’re feeling that way, etc.

Be kind to others

【3】 While you may not be at a place to help them financially (经济上), offering a smile or a kind word can help them feel better about where they’re in life. When others see you show kindness, they’ll also be more likely to do so.

Keep your mind open

Having an open mind is important for your growth. You may be right about something, but it doesn’t mean there aren’t other ways to look at it.【4】 You are sure to learn something as long as you stay open to difficult conversations.

【5】

You’ll hear people say “I had that idea” every time you see someone create something great. Everyone had the idea for Facebook first. The reason Mark Zuckerberg got rich off it is that he went out and did it, while everyone else was talking about it. Ideas are useless if you don’t act on them. Less thinking, more doing.

C．Take action for what matters to you.

G．So find something new and set goals beyond what you believe possible.

28、

Is running a marathon in under two hours possible? Will a human ever be able to run that fast? Currently, the world record for the 42.195 km (26.219 miles) distance is held by Kenyan Dennis Kimetto. His time of 2:02:57 hours was achieved at the Berlin Marathon of 2014.

For many years, long-distance runners have been trying to get nearer and nearer to the magical mark of two hours. Studies published in the past by medical and athletic experts have come to the conclusion that running a marathon in under 2 hours can be done. They even see a time of around 1:57 as the fastest a human can ever run. However, we will have to wait at least a decade or longer for this to happen.

Many things must fit together to deliver an under two-hour marathon. An athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running strategy and of course, the right nutrition. Today's most perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (统治) long-distance races for decades. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen. Training at high altitudes gives them a strong heart and a very large blood volume (容量).

Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and almost no wind will also be needed to attempt such a quick time. An ultra-fast marathon would only be possible on flat city courses, like Berlin or London, with few curves (弯道).

Since the beginning of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, athletes have tried to run long-distance races as fast as possible. In 1900, the marathon world record was around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. As time went on achieving faster times became more and more difficult. In the last 15 years, for example, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.

On the other hand, some experts think that such fast performances will only be possible with the help of illegal drugs or substances (物质). In the past years, several East African runners have been tested positive and many of them banned.

【1】What are Paragraphs 3 & 4 mainly about?

A.The benefits of running a marathon.

B.The conditions for an under two-hour marathon.

C.The development of modern long-distance races.

D.Perfect runners who can compete in a marathon.

【2】Which of the following does the author agree with?

A.East Africans are born to be long-distance runners.

B.It's impossible to beat the marathon world record again.

C.More and more athletes are losing their interest in marathons.

D.It's easier to achieve a marathon world record in Berlin than in London.

【3】What's the author's attitude towards running a marathon in under 2 hours?

A.Hopeful. B.Doubtful.

C.Uncertain. D.Uninterested.

【4】What's the main purpose of the text?

A.To inform. B.To discuss.

C.To educate. D.To persuade.
