Because recovering a stolen identity can be a hard process.

What's the structure of the passage? ①② t## ①② 0 C. C It's well-known that sunshine influences people's health. And new research shows it may also make people eat more-but only if they're male. The finding is from Carmit Levy, a researcher who had been studying how sunlight affects the risk of skin diseases. She exposed a group of mice to sunlight for a few weeks, and unexpectedly found that sunlight made male mice get heavier, but not females. The males also worked harder to get food that was difficult to reach That interested her, so Levy and her team did further studies. They invited volunteers for two tests Both showed that men and women were affected differently by sunlight. Then, they got data from almost 3,ooo people. These data told that 1,33o men required about 2, 188 daily calories in summer months and only needed 1.875 calories in other months. The 1.661 women needed about 1,5oo calories each day all year long Encouraged by this, the team ran more mouse experiments to test what might explain such findings, And the reason may be connected with these three things. The first is p53. Its levels will rise when the body is under stress, For animals that are usually active at night, such as mice, sunlight can be a cause of stress. The second key player is ghrelin (饥饿荷尔蒙). When the stomach is empty, it travels to the brain to send the message that the body needs food. The last is estrogen (雌激素). Its levels are much higher in females than males 海陵中学九年级英语试 进 扫描全能王 创建 Here's what may happen in male mice exposed to sunlight. First, the stress of sunlight makes p53 in the skin start to work. This p53 then tells the skin to create ghrelin: Therefore, the mice eat more. But in female mice, the estrogen seems to interfere the production of ghrelin. As a result, the female mice may not feel so hungry. That's to say, estrogen provides females with a greater protection against various forms of stress. The idea that sunlight may affect the need for food is interesting. But being sure the key players and how they work with each other will reauire much more research. )58. After exposing the male mice to sunlight for weeks. Levy found they A. gained some weight B. got food more easily C. ate in a healthy way D. suffered from skin diseases ,__ )59. Levy's team did further studies on humans to A. encourage more people to form new eating habits B. compare the eating habit of people with that of the mice C. see how many calories men and women need through a year D. check if people are affected by sunlight in the same way as mice ,_ )60. What does the underlined word "interfere" probably mean? B. Reduce. C. Develop. A. Waste. D. Complete ,_ )61. What can we infer from the passage? A. The p53 in the skin of mice will rise when night falls B. The ghrelin could make mice's stomachs empty more quickly. C. The scientists have been able to control people's need for food D. The estrogen may protect female mice from the stress of sunlight D Once a giant blocked (阻挡) the only road between the city of Here and the city of There. He challenged travelers to have a match.
