Have you ever wanted to eat chocolate but tried to stop yourself?A new study shows that
simply imagining eating food may help people eat less.
Researchers found that when people repeatedly imagine eating a certain food,they may
lose interest in it.71 For example,the tenth bite of a chocolate bar may seem less
enjoyable than the first.
Carey Morewedge,one of the scientists,explained that the way people imagine food is
important.If people only think about how the food smells or tastes,they may want it even more.
72 Doing so may make people want that food less.
_73 The people in the study were divided into two groups.One group imagined
putting coins into a machine and then eating a small number of chocolates.74
After the imagining task,all the people were given bowls of chocolates and told they
could eat as many as they wanted.The results were interesting.The group that imagined eating
many chocolates actually ate fewer chocolates than the other group.75 It also shows that
our mind can influence how much we eat.
A.This idea is called habituation.
B.To test this idea,the team did an experiment.
C.The other group imagined eating many chocolates.
D.Some people may still choose food only by its colour and smell.
E.This shows that imagination may help people control what they eat.
F.Instead,he suggested imagining chewing and swallowing many times.

For many years,people believed that planting trees was a good way to slow climate
change.Trees take in carbon dioxide(CO2)from the air and keep it in their bodies.Because of
this,many people think planting more trees can help cut down the amount of COa in the air.
However,scientists say the situation may not be so simple.Trees can keep carbon (only
while they are alive.When trees die,they slowly break down over time,and the carbon goes
back into the air again.
In recent years,scientists have noticed something interesting.Trees in many places around
the world are growing faster than before.At the same time,scientists noticed the rising level of
COz in the air.Roel Brienen,a forest scientist from the University of Leeds in the UK,
explained that higher COz levels and warmer temperatures can help trees grow more quickly.
At first,this seems like good news.Faster-growing trees can take in carbon more quickly.
But scientists have also found another important fact.Trees that grow very fast often live
shorter lives than trees that grow more slowly.
To study this question,Brienen and his team examined more than 210,000 tree-ring
records from over 110 tree species in many parts of the world.Their research showed that in
most forests,fast-growing trees usually died younger than slow-growing trees.
英语试卷第8页(共10页)
The team also used a computer program to study what might happen in a forest over time.
At first,the forest held more carbon because trees were growing quickly.But about twenty
years later,many trees began to die,and the carbon returned to the air again.
Because of this,scientists believe planting trees alone cannot solve the problem of climate
change.We still need to stop putting too much COa into the air.
A New Finding About Trees and Climate Change
Traditional View
Planting trees is a good way to slow climate change.
New Finding

The Result of the Study

The Magic of Shadows
It is Saturday afternoon in a small town near Xi'an.Wang Weifang and his friends are
putting on a special show.The audience can hear them clearly,but they cannot see the artists.
That is because the artists stand behind a white screen.They are performing a shadow puppet
(play.This is a traditional Chinese folk art with a long history.Today,it is on
UNESCO's list of intangible(非物质)cultural heritage.
Shadow puppet plays in China started over 2,000 years ago.Artists use light to make
shadows on a screen and tell stories.This is one of the earliest kinds of"moving pictures."It
has influenced modern films and cartoons a lot.Sadly,this old art was once in danger of dying
out.Artists like Wang don't want to see that,so they work hard to keep it alive.
Shadow puppets were first made of paper.Later,people used animal skin because it lasts
much longer.That is why they are called "piying"in Chinese,which means "skin shadows."
Artists cut the skin into the shapes of people or animals.Then they paint each puppet in bright
colors and put it on a stick.Some puppets can even move their arms,legs and eyes.
During the show,Wang and his friends hold the puppets close to the screen.A light shines
from behind,so the audience can see the shadows move.The artists also speak for different
characters and sing old songs.The audience can hardly take their eyes off the screen.
These days,Wang and his friends try new ways to protect this art.They add modern ideas
to old stories.For example,the puppets can even do modern dance moves!This makes people
laugh and cheer.They hope more young people will love this traditional art.
