I,阅读理解
In Victorian Time,there was a strange tapeworm()diet,in which dieters swallowed an
unhatched tapeworm and let it grow inside them by consuming undigested meals.Obviously,this
is an exceptionally dangerous and unhealthy way to manage your weight.However,while modern
popular diets aren't usually this extreme,they do promise similar results;specifically,losing
weight fast.So,are there any fast diets that do work?And are any of them actually healthy
for you?
Sam and Felix,who are identical twins are planning to go on a diet.Sam is hoping to lose
weight slowly,while Felix wants to go fast.
53
晨读晚练
Sam's plan is to gradually decrease his calorie intake and increase his regular exercise.With
less energy coming in and more being expended,he's creating an energy deficit inside his body.
To compensate,after 4 to 6 hours,his body starts burning fat cells as a major energy source for
his organs and tissues.
Felix aims to create a similar energy deficiency dramatically cutting his calorie intake.Unlike
Sam,who's still eating smaller meals,Felix is eating almost nothing.And his body responds by
going into a starvation response.Desperate for energy,his body starts breaking down other mate-
rials,including his muscles.Meanwhile,Sam's regular exercise is maintaining his muscle mass.
This means he'll use more energy both during exercise and at rest,making it easier for him to
lose weight.Felix,on the other hand,is losing muscle mass and burning fewer calories than ever
for his body's basic functions,making weight loss even more difficult.
Whether you're cutting calories or food groups,extreme diets are a shock to your system.
Many people are often pressured to diet for reasons other than health or happiness.Rather than
trying to lose weight fast,we should all be taking our time to figure out what the healthiest lifes-
tyle is for ourselves.
1.What is the function of the first paragraph?
A.To attract readers'attention.
B.To introduce an odd fashion.
C.To lead in the topic of the passage.
D.To present the background of the topic.
2.What's the meaning of the underlined word "deficit"in Paragraph 3?
A.Supply.
B.Shortage.
C.Cirele.
D.Source.
3.Why does Felix lose weight more difficultly?
A.He is overweight.
B.He doesn't take any exercise.
C.His body goes into a starvation response.
D.His body doesn't consume more calories.
4.What does the writer probably agree to?
A.Eating less,resting more.
B.Having a vegetarian diet.
C.Focusing on health not weight.
D.Taking exercise as much as possible.
