27、er第三部分：阅读理解（共 10 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 20 分）5AThe Diet Zone: A Dangerous PlaceDiet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet We are surrounded by the word “diet”（节食） everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have sto
28、pped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically (心里) and physically.Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weig
29、ht, but in controlling the consumption（消费） of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale（秤）instead. All we have to do is to swallow（吞咽） or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.On another level, diet products have gre
30、ater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we dont have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.The danger of diet produc
31、ts lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills cont
32、ain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriou
33、sly think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them .61. From Paragraph 1, we learn that _.A. diet prod
34、ucts fail to bring out peoples potentialB. people have difficulty in choosing diet productsC. diet products are misleading peopleD. people are fed up with diet products62.

35、oy diet foodsC. pay attention to their own eating habitsD. watch their weight rather than their diet63. In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means _.A. losing weight is effortless B. it costs a lot to lose weight6C. diet products bring no pain D. diet products are free from caloriesB.C
36、an people change their skin color without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin color.The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researche
37、rs at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science.Scientists have changed the color of a dark-striped zebra fish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebra fish skin color is determined by pigment（色素） cells, which conta
38、in melanosomes（黑色素体）. The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin color.It appears that, like the golden zebra fish, light-skinned Europeans also have a mutation （变异）in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.However, Keith Cheng, lea
39、der of the research team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebra fish genes.Humans acquired（获得）dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays of the sun, which can cause skin cancer.But when modern humans leave Africa to live in norther
40、n latitudes（纬度）, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they probably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin color, said Cheng.The
41、new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin color without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.64. The passage mainly tells us that _.A. people can not change their skin color without any pain. B. the n
42、ew discovery led to safe ways to change skin color.C. pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin color as he likedD. scientists have found out that peoples skin color is determined by the gene65. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. nowadays people who want to change their skin color h
43、ave to suffer a lot from the damage caused by the chemical treatmentB. Europeans and Africans have the same geneC. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancerD. there are two kinds of genes66.

44、. find the different genes of humans7B. prove the humans skin color is determined by the pigment geneC. find out the reason why the Africans skin color is darkD. find out the ways of changing peoples skin color67. The reason why Europeans are light-skinned is probably that _.A. they are born light-s
45、kinned peopleB. light-skinned Europeans have mutation in the gene for melanosome productionC. they have fewer activities outsideD. they pay much attention to protecting their skinC.When I was a child I never said, “When I grow up, I want to be a CEO,” but here I am. When I look back on my career, I
46、realize the road to becoming a CEO isnt a straight, clearly clarified path. In fact, no two paths are the same. But whether you want to be a boss one day or not, theres a lot to learn from how leaders rise to the top of successful companies. As this series of stories shows, the paths to becoming a C
47、EO may vary, but the people in that position share the qualities of commitment(承诺), work ethic（规范） and a strong desire for building something new. And every CEO take risks along the wayputting your life savings on the line to start a software company or leaving a big business to be one of the first
48、employees at a startup.I grew up in Minnesota, and learned how to be an entrepreneur（企业家）from my father, who has run a small business for almost 30 years. I went to Georgetown University and tried a lot of business activities in college with varying degrees of success. And I always had a dream job pattern: to walk to work, work for myself and build something for consumers. Im only 29, s
