When it comes to eating out, we can't help thinking of big meals in the restaurants, which usually contain much more fat and less fibers. Whether it is a business meeting over lunch or a fast food meal with the kids, eating out is a part of our lives. We eat out to save a lot of time, like grabbing a bite at fast food restaurants, or we take dining out as a favorite way to relax and socialize with friends. Eating out can be fun but many people still like eating at home more because it is healthier. When my dear wife does not prepare foods for me, I would rather cook some instant noodles and eat at home! However, we go out to eat once in a while for holidays or on special occasions.

Face-to-face communication involves much more than the spoken word．In fact, we often communicate our feelings to others through our body language without realizing we are doing so．We communicate through posture, gesture and facial expression．But the eyes also play an important part in this unspoken language．William Shakespeare called the eyes "a window to the soul," and you can learn to look through that window and better understand a person's body language by reading eye movement． Begin a conversation and ask a simple question．Watch carefully for eye movement during the response．If the person looks up, he or she is thinking or forming pictures．This is also a sign of a visual thinker．Looking up and to the left shows recalling a memory, while looking up and to the right could show imaginative construction or lying． If the person looks down, this could be a sign of obedience（服从） or even blame．Looking down and to the left can show a person talking to themselves．Looking down and to the right can show that they are feeling strong emotion． Looking sideways can indicate distraction or checking out a potential（潜在的） threat, hut a sideways glance can also show anger．In addition, eyes that look side to side often show shiftiness（狡诈） and lying． A glance usually indicates a desire for something．Glancing at a door could show a desire to leave the room, while a glance, at a person could indicate a desire to talk to them．A glance is also used when it is forbidden to look at something． A person who is lying to you may hold eye contact longer than normal．In addition, this person might smile with his mouth but not with his eyes．Smiling with the eyes is difficult to do if the emotion is not genuine． Rapid blinking（眨）of the eyes can occur when a person is thinking, and this can also be another sign of lying．Again, a person who is aware of this sign might overcompensate（矫枉过正） and stare． 1.The writer supported his argument in the first paragraph by __ __． A．using what William Shakespeare said B．describing the body language C．telling a story of William Shakespeare D．making a comment on eyes 2.Which of the following eye movement shows a dishonest speaker? A．If he looks up and to the left． B．If he looks up and to the right． C．If he looks down and to the left． D．If he looks down and to the right． 3.Which eye movement cannot hide your feelings? A．Looking side to side． B．Blinking the eyes quickly． C．Smiling with the eyes． D．Maintaining a prolonged eyes contact． 4.The writer wrote this passage to __ __． A．introduce the different meanings of the body languages B．teach us how to use eyes to express ourselves C．explain the importance of body languages D．tell us how to read eye movement

A single night of taking the drug Ecstasy (摇头丸) can cause serious brain damage and speed up the start of Parkinson’s disease（帕金森综合症）, scientists say. Just two or three Ecstasy tablets can permanently destroy brain cells that affect movement and reasoning, according to American research that links the drug to Parkinson’s for the first time. A study by a team at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, involving squirrel monkeys and baboons (狒狒) found that both species suffered permanent damage to key cells, which are lost in Parkinson’s, after receiving three low doses（剂量）of Ecstasy at three-hour periods. The study is particularly important because baboons are one of the best animal models for the human brain. George Ricaurte, who led the research, said that the widespread abuse of drug might have caused severe damage. “The most troubling result is that young adults using Ecstasy may be increasing their risk of developing Parkinsonism as they get older.” Alan Leshner, a former director of the US National Institute on Drug Abuse, said, “This study emphasizes the multi-aspect damage that Ecstasy causes to users. We’ve long known that repeated use damages brain cells. But this study shows that even very occasional（偶尔） use can have long-lasting effects on many different brain systems. It sends an important message to young people: don’t experiment with your own brain.” Janet Betts, a mother whose teenage daughter Leah died after a single Ecstasy tablet in 1995, said, “This comes as no surprise. But people can’t see the effects at first, and they say it won’t happen to them. We’ll see the symptoms later, just as we have with smoking.”
1.The article is intended to ______. A．explain the bad effects of drugs on people’s health B．warn young people of the risk of taking the drug Ecstasy C．persuade people out of such bad habits as smoking and using drugs D．tell us the links between the drug Ecstasy and the animal models 2.We know from the passage that a low dose of Ecstasy ______. A．can permanently destroy one’s brain cells B．can cause serious brain damage occasionally C．will result in immediate symptoms D．may bring on Parkinson’s at once 3.Why are squirrel monkeys and baboons involved in the experiments? A．Because these animals usually take drugs. B．Because their brain is similar to human beings. C．Because there is a model in the animals’ brains. D．Because they will soon get well after the experiment. 4.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably refers to” ”. A．Leah’s death after a single tablet B．the symptoms after smoking C．the damage to the brain systems D．repeated use of the drug
