10、r.So she went to the door alone and called, “Trick or treat!”The door opened. A woman stepped out. “You are so cute, but are you alone? ” she asked, looking around worriedly.“No.” Zoe pointed at my hiding place. Oh no, I thought. Shes going to announce me to the world.“Can he have a candy bar, too,
11、please?” Zoe asked instead. The woman laughed. “Catch!” A candy bar sailed toward me.“Thanks,” I called.I thanked Zoe, too. “Thats what angels do,” She said. And she always asked for candy for me at every house.At the last house, an ugly giant(巨人) sat on a chair in the corner. “I m afraid,” Zoe said
12、 to me. If I went with her I would be seen by others. But after a quick check for my friends, I said, “OK, lets go.”“Happy Halloween,” the giant said gently. To our surprise, he was Mr.Gordy in costume.“Thank you, Mr. Giant,” Zoe said.“Youre welcome, little angel.” Then Mr.Gordy turned to me. “Why a

17、y can help you lose weight, a new scientific study finds. While that advice works, there hasnt been research to show whether changing your drinking habits alone actually works.So for the new study, researchers grouped 318 overweight adults into three groups: one that replaced sugary drinks with wate
18、r; one that was provided with diet drinks; and one that was given weight-loss advice and could make diet changes of their choice. After six months, all three groups lost four or five pounds on average. But the two groups that cut sugary drinks lost at last five percent of their starting weight- 20 p
19、ercent did, Vs 11 percent of the comparison group.A five- percent weight loss is considered enough to see health benefits（益处）, said lead researcher Deborah F. Tate, of the University of North Carolina. On average, people in this study lost around two percent of their body weight. Thats not huge, but
20、 its a move in the right direction, the researchers said. After getting used to calorie-free drinks, she said, you can add changes to your eating habits.The findings, reported in an American magazine, are based on adults who were obviously over-weight, on average, and were cutting down at least 280
21、calories in drinks each day. The two drink groups were told to replace two of those daily drinks with water or diet drinks. The third group was given general weight-loss information, but could make their own diet decisions. All three groups had monthly meetings.After six months, all three groups had
22、 a similar average weight loss. However, blood sugar and blood pressure of the water group reduced more than that of the diet drink group. Its not clear why that is, Tate said. But, the water group had better hydration(水合作用 ) levels, which might help explain the improved blood pressure. “ For other
23、health reasons, water might be better than diet drinks,” Tate said.Some past studies have found that people who regularly drink diet soda actually have a higher diabetes (糖尿病) risk than people who steer clear of sugary drinks. But the reasons for that connection are unknown, and it might not be anyt
24、hing about diet drinks themselves.Tate said that longer- term follow-up of the people in this study will offer a way to look at that question. It is required that group members of the study had not been drinking diet drinks before the study. So the researchers can find out whether changing to diet h
