Imagine you've had a fight with your best friend.It's a stupid fight,something you will both get over.But right now you are upset.When you wal in the door,your mum ass what's wrong.How are you mostly liely to respond? Have a long,comforting tal about it with her.Or head to the fridge for the ice cream.But can that really help you feel better—or just mae you feel siceningly full?
Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of to satisfy hunger.We've all been there,finishing a whole bag of chips or eating cooie after cooie while preparing for a coming eam.But when done a lot—especially without realiing it—emotional eating can affect weight,health,and well-being.
One of the biggest beliefs about emotional eating is that it's caused by negative feelings.Yes,people often turn to food when they're stressed out,lonely,sad,anious,or bored.Nevertheless,emotional eating can be lined to positive feelings too,lie the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine's Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.More often,though,it's the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to see comfort or relaation in food.
We all have our own comfort foods.Amaingly,they may vary according to moods and se.One study found that happy people seem to want to eat things lie pia,while sad people prefer ice cream and cooies.Bored people desire salty,fragile things,lie chips.Girls go for chocolate and ice cream.
This brings up a curious question Does no one tae comfort in carrots and cabbages?Researchers are looing into that,too.What they're finding is that high-fat foods,lie ice cream,may activate certain chemicals in the body that create a sense of contentment and fulfillment,which may actually mae you reach for these foods again when feeling upset.
We're all emotional eaters to some etent.But for some people,emotional eating can be a real problem,causing serious problems such as weight gain.
Managing emotional eating means finding other ways to deal with the situations and feelings that mae someone turn to food.For eample,do you come home from school each day and automatically head to the itchen? Stop and as yourself,“Am I really hungry?” Are you having difficulty concentrating? If these signs point to hunger,choose something light and healthy to tae the edge off until dinner. 1.The first two paragraphs are designed to ________.

C.they have a strong desire for food D.they benefit a lot from eating 3.Which of the following may not serve as comfort food?

Not everyone is so sure. Past attempts to use technology to streamline the chec-in process have had mied results. Robert Habeeb, president of the First Hospitality Group, which is the owner of 55 hotels in the U.S, says he pulled out chec-in ioss at two of his Holiday Inn hotels after finding that most guests ignored them.

Traditionally,across the world,boys and girls attend a mied school,where they study together.But boys' schools are the perfect place to teach young men to epress their emotions and involve them in activities such as art,dance and music.
Boys at single-se schools were said to be more liely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional epressiveness,rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和……相符) the “boy code” of hiding their emotions to be a “real man”.
The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls. Tony Little,headmaster of Eton,warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls.He criticied teachers for failing to recognie that boys are actually more emotional than girls.
The research argued that boys often perform badly in mied schools because they become discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaing and reading sills.
But in single-se schools teachers can tailor lessons to boys' learning style,letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom,wrote the study's author,Abigail James,of the University of Virginia.
Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with “boy-focused” approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them.Because boys generally have more acute vision,learn best
through touch,and are physically more active,they need to be given “hands-on” lessons where they are allowed to wal around.“Boys in mied schools view classical music as feminine (女性的) and prefer the modern genre (类型) in which violence and seism are major themes,” James wrote.
Single-se education also made it less liely that boys would feel that they had to be “masterful and in charge” in relationships. “In mied schools,boys feel forced to act lie men before they understand themselves well enough to now what that means,” the study reported.
13.The author believes that a single-se school would ______.
A.encourage boys to epress their emotions more freely B.force boys to hide their emotions to be “real men” C.help boys to be more competitive in schools
D.naturally strengthen boys' traditional image of a man
14.According to Abigail James,one of the advantages of single-se schools is that ________.
A.boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in B.boys can focus on their lessons without being distracted C.teaching can be tailored to suit the characteristics of boys D.teaching can be designed to promote boys' team spirit 15.What does the underlined word “acute” in Paragraph 7 mean?
A.lovely. B.serious. C.sharp. D.dull. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
