You are 2 harnessing and consuming energy through the intricate 3 of your body in order to remain in energy 4 .
19、 To 5 a given body weight, your energy input must balance your energy output. However, sometimes the 6 energy balance is upset, and your 7 body weight will either fall or 8 The term body image refers to the mental image we have of our own physical appearance, and it can be influenced by 9 factors, i
20、ncluding how much we weigh or how that weight is distributed. Research has revealed that about 40 percent of adult men and 55 percent of adult women are dissatisfied with their current body weight. Similar findings have also been reported at the high school level, mainly with female students. At the
21、 college level, a study found that 85 percent of both male and female first-year students desired to change their body weight. The primary cause of this concern is the value that American society in general assigns to physical appearance. Thinness is currently an attribute that females desire highly
22、 Males generally desire muscularity. The vast 10 individuals who want to change their body weight do it for the sake of appearance; most want to lose excess body fat, while a smaller percentage of individuals actually want to gain weight. （分数：71.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填

24、ed into four groups. First is the Troubleshooter. His attributes are boldness, bravery, endurance, and cleverness. He is good at 3 fires and straightening things out. He loves to take risks and solve crises. But he resents being told how to work and is not very good at following 4 agreements. The se
25、cond is the Traditionalist. A stabilizer and consolidator, his abilities lie in establishing policies, schedules, regulations and hierarchy. He is at his best when he can plan his work. But he establishes a formal, impersonal style in dealing with colleagues until he is well 40 with them. The third
26、is the Conceptualiser. He uses his intellect to figure out complexities, to get models onto paper. He is the architect of change and his focus is on possibility. Since he is more involved in the creative process, he prefers others to take over execution. The last is the Catalyst. He is personal and
27、5 He has the ability to draw out the best in people as he is 6 people-oriented. He excels at the head of democratically run organization. But he lets other people“s 7 eat up much of his time. He is liable to make decisions on the basis of his personal likes and dislikes 8 what is best for the organi
28、zation. To be aware of these temperaments is to 9 that differences are neither flaws nor afflictions. Understanding this can lead to avoiding much mutual aggravation and enhancing relationships with business associates and colleagues. A. acquainted I. rather than B. aside J. Based on C. personable K

What they tell you: turning off the lights saves CO 2 ? A. What they don“t tell you: it makes sense fo
30、r individuals to use less electricity to help reduce the emissions of British power stations. However, it“s worth bearing in mind that the total amount of CO 2 that can be released by power plants and other industrial facilities across the EU between now and 2012 is fixed by the European Emissions T
31、rading Scheme. This means that if the UK power sector reduces its emissions, extra carbon permits get freed up for use elsewhere, such as German power stations or French cement plants. B. In other words, the same amount of CO 2 will be released, just from different sources. If you want to ensure tha
32、t your electricity savings do make a real environmental difference, join Sandbag, a charity that will remove CO 2 permits from the EU scheme to stop your good work being traded away on the carbon markets. 2. What they tell you: buy a greener car. C. What they don“t tell you: if you definitely need a
33、 new car, it makes perfect sense to buy a small, super efficient model with low CO 2 emissions. D. However, making a new earincluding mining and processing the metals and manufacturing and assembling the componentstakes a huge amount of energy. According to an expert at the Stockholm Environment Ins
34、titute, the production of a typical modern car causes around 8 tones of CO 2 , equivalent to driving 23,000 miles. Because of this, unless you currently drive a lot in a highly inefficient car, it will often be greener to stick to your existing vehicle than to sell it and buy a new one. 3. What they
35、 tell you: going veggie cuts emissions. E. What they don“t tell you. it“s true that animal products tend to have much higher carbon footprint than food produced from plants. Hence vegetarianism tends to be a good idea from an environmental point of view. The devil is in the detail, however, because
36、certain dairy products are more “carbon intensive“ than some meats. In particular hard cheese, which takes a lot of milk to produce, can have a bigger footprint per kilo than chicken. So while cutting out meatespecially beef and lambdefinitely makes ecological sense, the benefit will be reduced if y
37、ou make up the calories by consuming more dairy. The most effective way to reduce the emissions of your diet is to go veganor as close as you can get. 4. What they tell you: don“t overfill the kettle. F. What they don“t tell you. it“s not just how much water you boil that determines the carbon footp
38、rint of your tea or coffee, but also the type of kettle you use. Jug kettles are fast and convenient, but their fuelelectricity from the national gridproduces almost three times more greenhouse gas for each unit of heat than burning gas in the home does. Hence switching to a stove-top kettle on a ga
39、s cooker will usually reduce emissionsespecially in colder months when any heat from the flames that escapes around the side of the kettle will warm the room, reducing the burden on the central heating system. 5. What they tell you. use more efficient appliances. G. What they don“t tell you : choosi
40、ng highly energy efficient appliances is one good way to ensure that routine tasks such as dishwashing and laundry don“t create more carbon pollution than necessary. But there are other ways, too, such as simply running your machines at night. In the daytime, when electricity consumption is at its h
41、ighest, the dirtiest, least efficient power stations are rolled out to help meet peak demand. At night, when demand is lower, these power stations can be switched off, which means that each unit of electricity has a lower carbon footprint. Turning your washing machine and dishwasher on before you go
42、 to bed therefore shaves a little off your carbon footprint by “spreading the load“ on the electricity gridthough the difference isn“t as huge as some websites have claimed. 6. What they tell you. sign up with us, we provide 100% renewable electricity. H. What they don“t tell you: various electricit
43、y companies promise to provide customers with power from renewable sources. This gives the impression that by signing up you“ll be increasing the amount of clean electricity being produced. The truth is rather more complex. The government requires a certain proportion of UK electricity to come from
44、renewable sources. If an electricity company exceeds this target by generating most or all of its power from renewable one it can sell its extra green electricity credits to other companies which in turn can avoid producing any green power themselves. The net effect is that not very much changes. Th
45、at“s not to say “don“t sign up“, but if you do use a green power supplier don“t expect your electricity to suddenly be carbon-neutral, no matter what the adverts suggest. 7. What they tell you: wood fires are green. I. What they don“t tell you: if you burn the wood in an open fire, the majority of t
46、he energy in the wood will be lost up the chimney. Assuming it comes from properly managed forests, however, wood is a green fuel because the CO 2 released when it gets burned will be sucked from the air by the trees planted to replace the felled ones. The inefficient burning typical in a fireplace
47、also creates plenty of soot (烟尘). Like CO 2 , soot warms the atmosphere by absorbing heat from the sunand it can also travel thousands of miles to settle on Arctic ice, where it accelerates melting by darkening the surface. J. A much better option environmentally is a log-burning stove. These captur
48、e most of the heat from the fuel, greatly reducing the amount of wood required, and they slash soot emissions too. Some modern stoves are so clean burning that they can even be used in smoke-free zones. 8. What they tell you: use eco detergents (清洁剂). K. What they don“t tell you: “ecological“ washin
49、g up liquids and clothes detergents offer an environmental benefit by favoring rapidly biodegradable(生物降解), low-toxicity (低毒), plant-based (草本) ingredients over harsher synthetic ones. However, when it comes to climate change, most of the footprint of washing up or cleaning clothes is not caused by producing the detergent,
