Whether you’re the life of the party, a ...

Whether you’re the life of the party, a bookworm or a night owl, your personality plays a surprisingly large role in your ability to slim down. Ten examples are listed as follows.

1. If you’re reliable…

Always on time? Follow rules by the book? It means you’re a careful person who can stick with an eating or fitness plan. However, maybe just that merit forces you to think about food all the time, which can work against you.

2. If you’re often hard on yourself...

People who are hard on themselves have a huge negative reaction every time they make a mistake. Those who can forgive themselves simply move on and vow not to make the same mistake again. If you’re hard on yourself, you’re more likely to continue overeating after you do something wrong, since realizing you’ve overeaten leads to feelings of hopelessness.

3. If you’re a night owl…

Staying up late also has a negative effect on your figure. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania found that people who were kept up until 4 a.m. ate 550 additional calories during their late night hours. What’s more, a higher percentage of the late-night calories came from high-fat foods than they did during daytime hours.

4. If you’re an early bird…

In an Australian study participants who woke up early were less likely to be overweight than night owls—even though both groups slept the same number of hours. Although this study involved young children, the results are likely applicable to adults as well, says Allen Towfigh, M D, a sleep specialist. He recommends adults strive for seven to nine hours of sleep per night.

5. If you’re self-centered…

Being a little stuck on yourself may not be such a bad thing when trying to lose weight. Self-centered people tend to consider their own interests, which could lead them to better conserve their energy and have more willpower to make healthy choices.

1.What’s the passage mainly about?

A. The most effective ways to lose weight.

B. Life styles influence people’s personality a lot.

C. The earlier you get up, the slimmer you may become.

D. The relationship between people’s personality and weight.

2.Which of the following statement is NOT true?

A. Reliable people always follow rules.

B. People tend to eat more when staying up late.

C. Night owls tend to be less overweight than early birds.

D. People are easy to overeat if they are hard on themselves.

3._________, it is easy for you to lost weight.

A. If you are reliable

B. If you are a night owl

C. If you are hard on yourself

D. If you are self-centered

4.What may the author talk about next?

A. Analysis of other personalities.

B. Ways to improve your personality.

C. Suggestions for you to lose weight.

D. Choices self-centered people may make.

Getting stuck in a traffic jam is one of the most boring problems for people living in big cities.The fact that you’re moving so slowly leads too stress,anger and the wish that your car could just fly over the traffic like an airplane.

Soon,however, that wish could come true .On May 8, US car-renting company Uber showed off what it described as “the transportation mode of the future: on-demand air  transport,”reported ABC News .

According to Nikhill Goel, head of products for Uber Air, the company's air taxi service may launch test flights in the US cities of Dallas and Los Angeles , as well as Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, as early as 2020. If everything goes according to plan, passengers will be able to fly to work by 2023 .

When the Olympics comes to Los Angeles in 2028 . Uber “expects to have hundreds , if not thousands , of its aircraft in the skies.” Goel told Newsweek .

So what would Uber's flying vehicles be like ?

They are small , electric aircraft that take off and land vertically (垂直地) , and they give off zero emissions (排放) and are quiet enough to operate in cities .

Just like an airplane , the vehicles will have fixed wings to help them glide . But while a helicopter has just one big fixed rotor (定量) . Uber's vehicles will have multiple rotors , which will help increase fuel efficiency (效率) while reducing emissions and noise.

Because of these fixed wines and multiple rotors . Uber’s flying taxis“should be quieter and safer than a helicopter.” reported ABC News .

However , the service still has a long way to go before it's ready to accept passengers.For example , to avoid any potential accidents . Uber is working with NASA to study air traffic control problems associated with low-flying aircraft. But just as Dubai's Mayor Betty Price said in a news release . “This program is revolutionary and future -oriented (面向未来的). ”

1.Uber 's flying taxis are expected to start to take passengers in______

A. 2020    B. 2023    C. 2028    D. 2030

2.How are Uber 's flying taxis different from helicopters?

A. They have one big rotor

B. They need more fuel to fly.

C. They have fewer fixed wings

D. They should be quieter and safer

3.Which is true about the flying cars according to the passage?

A. They can be as efficient as airplanes and helicopters

B. They must be in larger number a few years later.

C. They nearly do no harm to the environment.

D. They will surely help passengers avoid accidents

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. Ubers plan to launch flying taxis
