Diabetes（糖尿病）is caused by a group of metabolic disorder（代谢紊乱) in which there are high blood sugar levels over a long period of time. There are three main types of diabetes:
Type 1 Diabetes results from the body not having enough insulin.(胰岛素)
Type 2 Diabetes mainly happens to those who do not have enough physical exercise, eat too much unhealthy food and get too heavy.
Gestational Diabetes(妊娠期糖尿病)is the third main form. It appears when a woman is having a baby. She will probably get well again after the birth of the baby.
Diabetes can bring serious problem. People with diabetes, especially the Type1, will easily get thirsty and hungry, and quickly lose weight. If it is not treated, it will develop rapidly(weeks or months), and cause many long-term complications(并发症). All the complications related to damage to blood vessels(血管). For example, damage to the eyes. It is caused by damage to the blood vessels in the eyes, and results in gradual vision loss and blindness. The complications will greatly aggrandize the risk of diabetes, by which about 75% of the deaths are caused.
According to a report from the WHO(World Health Organization) in 2015, about 415 million people have diabetes worldwide, which means 8.3% of the adults in the world have diabetes. Of all the cases, 85% to 90% are Type 2 Diabetes. That is to say, most cases of diabetes result from the unhealthy life style. Diabetes doubles a person's risk of early death. From 2012 to 2015, about 1.5 to 5 million deaths each year resulted from this disease. The global economic cost of diabetes in 2014 was around 612 billion USD.
A healthy life style can help prevent diabetes. Doing a lot of physical activities and having a healthy diet will help have normal body weight. Higher levels of physical activity (more than 90 minutes per day) can reduce the risk of diabetes by 28%. Healthy diet includes foods rich in whole grains and fiber, foods with good fats from nuts, vegetable oils and fish, little sugar, and less red meat.

If you’re riding in the car on the way home from school or soccer practice, does the sight of fast food restaurant signs make you hungry for a cheeseburger, some French fries or a piece of pizza?
Think about some of the signs for the most popular fast food restaurants. What do the signs for McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, Dairy Queen and Pizza Hut have in common? They all make prominent (突出的) use of two colors: red and yellow.
Could it be that these colors — red and yellow — make you hungry and want to stop for fast food? Although it might sound crazy, that's exactly what some scientists believe. The idea even has a name: the ketchup (番茄酱) and mustard (芥末) theory.
Scientists also point out that studies show that color gets communicated to the brain faster than any other type of communication. For example, experts believe that the color red inspires feelings of warmth, comfort and love. Similarly, yellow draws feelings of happiness, excitement and cheer.
Researchers believe that these colors, especially when used on fast food restaurant signs, create the perfect feelings to make us feel hungry and want to stop to eat.
Other scientists,however,disagree with the ketchup and mustard theory and point out that there isn't enough scientific data (数据) to support the theory. They think that feelings of happiness and excitement connected with the colors red and yellow aren't necessarily equal to hunger.
While the science of colors and their exact influence on us may be uncertain, it’s clear that fast food restaurants believe that in some way, it is good for them to include red and yellow on their signs. Do these colors make us hungry? Maybe ... or perhaps it’s our own happy memories of delicious cheeseburgers, salty French fries and ice- cold sodas that keep us coming back for more!
1.Why does the writer ask the question in Paragraph 1?
A.To know when people will feel hungry.
B.To ask people to take part in the research.
C.To get people into the topic of the passage.
D.To find what fast food restaurant sign is the most popular.
2.What common point do most fast food restaurants share?
A.They provide similar foods. B.Their foods are in red and yellow.
C.Their signs include red and yellow. D.Their foods are the favorite of people.
3.According to Paragraph 4, some scientists believe that ________.
A.people cannot refuse to enjoy fast food B.colors can make communication easier
C.people use colors to express their feelings D.colors have influences on our feelings
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Colors are important to fast food restaurants. B.It’s uncertain whether colors make us hungry.
C.We need to study the science of colors. D.Delicious food can leave us good memories.
阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
China isn't well known for its science fiction films, but recently a new film called The Wandering Earth has become a great success. It has earned over $697 million worldwide. It tells an amazing story of the Earth in danger, along with exciting scenes of spaceships and outer space.
The Wandering Earth is based on a story by Liu Cixin. In the story, the sun was dying out, people all around the world worked together to move Earth out of the solar system and sail Earth to a new star system. The film began with the early life of a young boy who was born just after the project started. The engineers pushed Earth away and built underground cities that were vast enough for all the other humans to live in. Yet the 2500 years' journey came with all kinds of dangers. In order to save the humans, a group of young people came out and fought hard for the planet.
China is playing an increasingly important part in the film industry. Its growing middle class has seen the rise of film market across the country, and Chinese viewers have become an important part of film industry. Hollywood Projects like Iron Man 3 specifically filmed more scenes in China for its market. Chinese film industry is keeping growing. Just as Americans want to get into the Chinese market, Chinese filmmakers are looking for the way to the international market.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Wandering Earth is China's "first space" film. Chinese science fiction writer, Anna Wu, says science fiction "is a new challenge for the Chinese film industry." Some Chinese filmmakers have achieved a great success at this kind of film, but most of them still have a long way to go.
Still, Wu notes that within China, "Not all the science fiction films have had success. It still takes time to accept science fictions, and that with the development of our country, people are getting busier, wealthier and more stressed," which creates a perfect environment for this new kind of film and television. The Wandering Earth, she says, is a good example. "I also care about the money it earns, which will affect the future of Chinese science fiction films."

c. Many young people fought for Earth.

e. The engineers built vast cities under the ground.
A.d-a-e-b-c B.d-c-e-a-b C.e-c-a-d-b D.c-e-d-a-b
3.Hollywood film Iron Man 3 filmed some scenes in China in order to ________.
A.reduce the cost of film making B.attract more Chinese viewers
C.make its story more interesting D.help improve Chinese film industry
