听力原文: All right! Enough cookies, cola and chips. It seems that junk food is all that the children want to eat these days. Television controls their tastes. The kids see well-known personalities eating potato chips, candy and other processed food and they want to be like their heroes. How do they do it? They eat the same food. I wish there were more characters like Old Popeye, the sailor, who ate spinach but not French fries.
Just because I like brown rice, beans and fresh vegetables, I don't expect my children to eat this health food. I'm glad to cook traditional meals of meat and potatoes for them. I really can't be too upset with the kids because most adults aren't careful about what they eat. The other night, my wife and I went to a party where there was plenty of drink but very little for us to eat. They served hot dogs and hamburgers. I can't eat hot dogs, with all those preservatives and hamburgers are filled with chemicals so that they look good. Besides the meat, they had sugar-filled cookies and cake and of course chips. Terrible, I don't want the world to change because of me, but I think that people should realize that there are alternatives to eating meat. They always tell me that I probably don't get my essential proteins. But I feel better than ever and I'm sure that it's because I am vegetarian. I would really like to see more television advertisements which show the benefits of good, healthy, natural food.

Scientists claim that sleeping habits, central heating, medicines and even some pollutants can play a role in weight gain. Lack of sleep could be partly to blame. In recent years, the average night's sleep has dropped from nine hours to just seven. Sleep lack changes levels of the hormones that regulate food intake and body fat and increase hunger and appetite.
If it is too hot or too cold, we burn calories to cool down or heat up. But if the temperature is just right, the calories may be turned into body fat instead.
Those who take medicines to control their blood pressure can often put on more weight. Similarly, studies have shown that going on the Pill can add to a woman's weight. Mother Nature may also be to blame, with our body shape being partly determined by our parents. The overweight are also more likely to be associated with partners of a similar size, and their children are more likely to be overweight.
The scientists from Yale, Cornell and Johns Hopkins published their analysis of these findings last week. Their reasoning goes like this:
1. Sleep--Too little increases appetite.
2. Medicine--Many modern medicines lead to us putting on weight.
3. Mother's age--Older women are more likely to have obese children.
4. Giving up smoking--Nicotine suppresses the appetite.
5. Getting older--Weight tends to increase with age.
What does the author think of the advice "eat less and exercise more"?
A.It may not be a solution for all who face this problem since the reasons for people's getting fat varies.
B.There are various other ways to achieve the goal of weight-loss and this is not the best one.
C.Exercise is something you will never get your returns and your efforts will be in vain.
D.It has been talked about for too long a time that a newer alternative is needed.

A man named Walter Scott had the first "diner" in 1872. It wasn't really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late- night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools, and people sat down while they ate.
Before long many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.
Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1990s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, meals in a modern diner.
Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.
A man named Walter Scott had the first "diner" in 1872. Why is diner in quotation marks (引号) ?
A.Because it is spelled differently from "dinner".
B.Because the first diner was not a real diner.
C.Because the first diner was a real diner.
D.Because it is a special kind of restaurant.
Everyone knows that taxation is necessary in a modern state: 【21】______ it, it would not be possible to pay the soldiers and policemen who protect us; 【22】______ the workers in government offices who 【23】______ our health, our food, our water, and all 【24】______ things that we can not do for ourselves. By 【25】______ of taxation, we pay for things that we need as 【26】______ as we need somewhere to live and something to eat,

W: Well, I have tried one or two ... mainly to see if my son, Paul, would eat them. I'm very worried about him, as a matter of fact. He flatly refuses to eat vegetables...except potatoes.
M: But it's a very common problem. How old is your son?
W: He's almost ten. He's a strong boy and loves sports. And he always has plenty of energy...It's just that I'm concerned about the future.
M: But what is his diet like generally? I mean, does he eat properly...apart from the lack of vegetables?
W: Well, he has a healthy appetite and he would eat chips forever...always covered in ketchup or tomato sauce.
M: Ah! That's also very common these days. All those sauces appeal to children because of the sugar content.
W: They don't have sugar in them, do they?
M: Ummm, I'm afraid they do!
W: Well, that explains it, I suppose. Paul does have a very sweet tooth. He'd do anything for sweets or ice cream. But what can I do to persuade him to eat vegetables?
M: Well, if he likes sauces, you can make wonderful, healthy salads these days from all sorts of different green leafy vegetables—different types of lettuce for vitamin B, spinach which provides vitamin A and iron, parsley and watercress which are also rich in iron...
W: Ummm ... I could try that, I suppose. I know he likes, what's it called, Thousand Island salad dressing ...
M: And I always recommend vegetable sticks to mothers who have your problem—you know, instead of letting him have chocolate bars or biscuits, get into the habit of giving him mw carrot sticks to nibble at.
W: That's a good suggestion.
