21、   Some hot dog lovers may feel guilty when they enjoy their favorite food. They even exercise excessively(过分的)to burn off calories afterward. Now they can relieve the pain. A company in Norway develops a product made from trees. It can replace fat in foods like hot dogs but has no calories.

A product named SenseFi is introduced to the public by a Norwegian biorefinery company, Borregaard. Though its taste and feel are similar to those of fat, no calories are contained in it.

The material used to create this product is microfibrillated cellulose(MFC), which is a waste product that trees produce when they are cut and prepared for use. Every year there is over a hundred billion tons of cellulose(纤维素) produced by plants, among which only a small part is now useful to humans.

According to a report from the Norwegian daily newspaper Dagbladet, Borregard has spent $36.3 million on developing SenseFi. This project went through a 10-year study conducted by the Paper and Fibre Research institute in Trondheim, Norway. It successfully entered the U.S. market and the company opened a plant in Wisconsin. The food industry there was expected to embrace the arrival of SenseFi.

The company is speaking highly of this product for its incredible effect on fighting against obesity(肥胖). “We're rolling it out primarily in the U.S., where it has been approved. Sales are just about underway, and there is a lot of focus on fighting obesity," said the company's Business Director Harald Ronneberg.

Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that about 40 percent of adults are overweight, and in 2008, the cost of medical treatment of obesity was $147.

With the help of SenseFi, meat used for making foods like hot dogs can be recreated. Not only does it keep the flavor of fat, but it also reduces calorie intake while providing the body with more fiber, which helps people fill themselves up and digest more effectively.

【1】What do we know about the raw material of SenseFi?

A.It helps cut trees.

B.It comes from trees.

C.It is similar to hot dogs in taste.

D.It exists in a small amount.

【2】What does the underlined word "embrace" in Paragraph 3 possibly mean?

A.Spread. B.Increase. C.Welcome. D.Praise.

【3】Which factor of SenseFi would appeal to customers most?

A.It doesn't have any calories.

B.It keeps the feel and flavor of fat

C.It provides different kinds of nutrition.

D.It is based on a 10-year study.

【4】Why does Borregaard introduce the product mainly in America?

A.It opened a plant in Wisconsin.

B.The food industry in America is booming-

C.Most Americans think highly of the products.

D.Many Americans suffer from problems linked to obesity.

22、Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. It is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.

Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.

The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, and write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.

It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.

The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat（拍）yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!

23、You Need to Start Strength Training Today

The aging process affects the human body in many ways. One thing that happens to all of us as we age is muscle loss. 【1】 But others say it can start as early as age 30. The Harvard Health Publishing website notes that after age 30, you begin to lose muscle faster during your lifetime.

Experts show that we do know this: Being inactive can speed up the process. Now, the good news! Lost muscle is not gone forever. It is never too late to start strength training. But what exactly is strength training? 【2】

Here are a few things to note about this kind of training.

No equipment strength training. You do not have to use special exercise equipment or go to a gym to do strength training. 【3】 Exercises that use body weight as resistance are usually safer for beginners. They can also be easier on the body, and you can do them anywhere. Push-ups, plank poses, jumping jacks, side jumps and deep knee bends are great exercises for making muscle stronger.

【4】 The experts also suggest a short practice before strength training. Cold muscle is more likely to be injured than warm muscle. Walking for five to ten minutes is enough to warm up your muscle. They say it can activate your muscle.

Food. 【5】 The body breaks down protein into amino acids, which it uses to build muscle. So, experts say eat a little healthy protein with each meal—foods such as chicken, salmon, beans and yogurt.

A．Warm-up.

B．A muscle check.

C．You can just use your own body weight to do it.

D．Some experts say muscle loss begins around age 50.

E．Do not forget that proper diets help you build muscle.

F．Let us talk about the health benefits of strength training.

G．Simply put, it is any activity that makes one’s muscle stronger.

24、Traveling can be a very fun and exciting way to vacation with your family, but it does not always turn out as expected. I have traveled a lot with my family over the years, but some experiences are worth forgetting altogether. I remember a particular traveling experience which sticks out in my mind for the wrong reasons.

My dad and stepmom had decided to drive to California for our family vacation. This was supposed to provide educational value, since we would be able to stop along the way and look at various sites in each state. Everything was going as planned until we decided to take a break and stop at the Grand Canyon(大峡谷). I had always wanted to see this exciting place and had decided to write a report on it for my eight-grade English class. We got out of the car and were walking on one of the paths to get to a cliff(悬崖) so we could take a family photo when I slipped(滑倒) and fell down. I fell on a piece of rock, and felt great pain run up my leg at once. My dad took me to the nearest hospital and, after an eight-hour wait in the emergency room(急诊室), found out that I broke two bones in my foot.

Needless to say, our vacation was no fun for me because I was in pain during the whole two-week trip. I ended up making an appointment the day we got home to see a doctor for a check-up. That was definitely not what I consider fun or a great vacation, and it really put a dent in our sightseeing plans.

25、This is a true story which touched a lot of people. As the house _________ with hot smoke, Mike Hughes said he had a hunch (预感). He _________ into a room—the first he tried—and there was a 9-month-old girl. The firefighter _________ her to safety. “Another 20 seconds and it would have been a different result.” he recalled. That rescue happened 17 years ago. The girl, Dawnielle Davison, _________ 18, and on Saturday, she graduated from high school.

Her family and friends were there to _________ her on her big day. But Davison also had a special guest in the crowd: the firefighter who _________ her life. Hughes, who lives in Washington, and is now retired, said that he _________ with Davison about five years ago after rediscovering an old newspaper about his rescue of the girl.

“I thought, I wonder if that baby I pulled out of that fire is still _________. So I just got on Facebook and _________ her name up and there she was,” the 61-year-old said. “I thought it would be fun to say hi.”

Davison says she had no idea that she had come to __________ to death at such a young age until Hughes __________ her. But she said that once her shock at the news __________, she felt __________ that “someone like that, who saved me cared enough” to find out where had become of her. “I feel like I __________ him a lot.” the teen added. Since making that initial connection, Hughes and Davison have kept in mind, chatting over Facebook and meeting by person.
