    Here are some tips from the experts to help you drop pounds gradually and safely.

Eat smaller portions

The trick is to eat more throughout the day.

“Sitting down to three rounded meals has its place. But you should have healthy snacks throughout the day,” Uehlein says. 1.To control portion () sizes, use your hand as a guide. “Never eat anything bigger than your hand,” says the chef.

Eat more healthful foods

Fruits, vegetables and wholegrains are low in calories and fat, yet filling.2.

Cut back on the amount of oil you use in dressings or sauces. For example, replace half of the oil with orange juice in a sauce.

But don’t assume fat-free processed (加工过的) foods are a good choice.

“A lot of times, fat-free products are very high in salt and tend to be low in dietary fiber (膳食纤维), so you’re not full.3.,” Uehlein says.

Be mindful

It’s not easy to keep on a diet. You are likely to eat too much, especially when you’re upset, attracted by television or you’ve skipped a meal.4., says Catherine Champagne, Ph.D. and registered dietitian.

“Becoming aware is so important,” Champagne says. Her patients often fear to keep a record. “They don’t want to think beyond eating, thus putting on weight easily.5.,” she says.

Avoid situations in which you can’t eat as healthfully as you want. Uehlein, who spent years as a restaurant chef, recommends eating at home more often.

A.You’ll be hungry sooner

B.So you’re satisfied with less

C.But you have to learn to control

D.So keeping a food diary is helpful

E.Exercises are good for your weight-loss

F.Staying away from snacks is good for our health

G.He suggests a banana mid-morning and a few nuts in the afternoon

    At Mrs. Jennings’ handsome house, in London.

While waiting for dinner, Marianne Dashwood wrote a letter very quickly. Elinor Dashwood noticed a large “W” in the address. Marianne rang the bell to have someone post it immediately.

After dinner, there was a loud knock at the door. Marianne cried, “Oh, it’s Willoughby!” and seemed to throw herself into his arms when Colonel Brandon came in. She was so surprised that she immediately left the room.

Elinor made the tea for Colonel Brandon. He did not stay long.

The next morning, upon arriving at home after shopping, Marianne flew upstairs.

“No letter has been left here for me since we went out. How strange!” she said, in a low and disappointed voice.

About a week later, they saw Mr. Willoughby’s card on the table when they came in from morning’s drive. He had been there while the ladies were out.

“He will call again tomorrow,” said Elinor.

Marianne decided to stay behind the next morning, when the others went out. One look at her sister when they returned was enough to tell Elinor that Willoughby had not called.

Colonel Brandon came again to tea and had short private conversation with Elinor.

“Your sister’s engagement to Mr. Willoughby is very well known.”

“It cannot be well known,” returned Elinor, “for her own family does not know it.”

“I am sorry but I did not realize it was a secret. I came to ask, is everything decided? Is it possible to? Excuse me, Miss Dasnwood. I believe I have been wrong in saying so much.”

From these words Elinor was sure of something, yet she knew he could never be successful with her.

Over the next three or four days, Willoughby neither came nor wrote.

One evening at a party, Marianne suddenly saw Willoughby standing in deep conversation with a young woman, whose name was Grey, a rich lady.

“He is there! Oh! Why does he not look at me? Why can’t I speak to him?”

“Marianne,” said Elinor, “perhaps he hasn’t seen you yet.”

At last he came to them.

“Willoughby, what’s wrong? Did you not get my letters? Won’t you look at me?”

After a moment’s pause, he spoke. “I came by last Tuesday but unfortunately did not see you. My card was not lost, I hope.”

“Have you not received my notes?” cried Marianne. “Tell me, Willoughby; tell me, what’s the matter?”

Quiet and embarrassed, he said nothing more and turned quickly away to Miss Grey. Marianne, turning white and unable to stand, fell into her chair.

1.Before the party, Marianne badly desired      .

A.to write a letter to Willoughby B.to receive Willoughby's card

C.to be visited by Willoughby D.to be invited by Willoughby

2.The underlined word “something” in Para.14 refers to_______.

A.Marianne’s love for Brandon B.Brandon’s love for Marrianne

C.Willoughby’s love for Marianne D.the Dashwoods’ love for money

3.What do you know about Willoughby?

A.He didn’t call Marianne until the party to give her a surprise.

B.He was too shy to declare in public his deep love for Marianne.

C.He was already on the side of another woman with more money.

D.He felt disappointed that Brandon was between him and Marianne.

4.How do you find Marianne in the story?

A.More selfish than kind. B.More strong than weak.

C.More calm than impatient. D.More sensitive than sensible.

    An online tool has been released(推出)which is able to bring black and white photographs to life by adding colour to them using artificial intelligence(AI).

Colourisation(上色)of old photos is normally a process taking a lot of time,which requires special training and expensive software.The tool,ColouriseSG,is able to do it for free. It is trained on old pictures and uses machine learning to guess what it thinks the pictures would have looked like in colour.

The purpose of colourisation is to produce a picture with colours that seem to be right," the tool's developers say."It by no means makes sure that the colourised picture is an accurate(精确的)representation of the original photo in time."

The free-to-use tool was developed to provide an accurate way for people from Singapore to edit their black and white pictures.The idea of ColouriseSG was to provide a large enough data-set to be linked to people living in Singapore.

Tech firm NVIDIA has released several different picture editing tools that are powered by AI.Its latest release is software which uses deep learning to turn even the roughest drawings into works of art.

The new program,GauGAN,named after famous French impressionist Paul Gaugin,uses a tool called GAN to recognize simple lines and turn them into realistic pictures.

Its application could help jobs,for example,urban planning,edit pictures faster and with greater accuracy,according to the company.

“It's much easier to come up with designs with simple drawings,and this technology is able to turn these drawings into highly realistic pictures,"said Bryan Catanzaro,vice president of applied deep learning research at NVIDIA.

1.How does ColouriseSG colourise photos?

A.By learning from people in Singapore.

B.By presenting old photos correctly.

C.By editing original colors on the photos.

D.By making a guess based on a data-set.

2.According to the passage,GauGAN can

A.colourise black and white photos accurately

B.employ deep learning to create works of art

C.make Tech firm NVIDIA known to people

D.turn rough drawings into realistic pictures

3.The passage is mainly about

A.the colourisation of old pictures

B.the technology of machine learning

C.picture editing tools powered by AI

D.simple lines changed into photos

4.The passage is most probably a

A.science report B.technology review

C.research plan D.laboratory record

    Today I achieved a dream that was born in April this year.Before April I never swam,biked or ran.I played basketball sometimes,but I did little in the way of endurance(耐力)workouts. One day in April,however,this changed.I want to find a way to challenge myself.I decided I was going to train for the Chicago marathon and complete it in six months.

The day finally came.For the first 11 miles,everything was going great.I was pacing(调整节奏)myself correctly and there wasn't too much pain or tiredness building up in my legs. Shortly after mile 12,however,I started to feel some pain.Miles 12-17 became a mental battle as I tried to convince myself to get to the finish line without walking.

Miles 17-20 were getting hard.I had to consciously push myself to stay at the race pace I was aiming for.My ankles(脚踝)were starting to hurt and my legs were giving out.At around mile 21 I got a stomach ache.I thought I might have to stop and walk for a minute,but the determination side of my brain took over and said,"Stick to your goals and never give up!”

The last 3-4 miles of the marathon were like nothing I have experienced.At the aid station at mile 24 I walked for a few seconds and drank some water.Then I started running and slowly I got back up to speed and went on.The last mile stands as the single most difficult thing I have done physically and mentally.Every step I took,my brain was screaming at me to walk.but I wouldn't listen.

When I crossed the finish line I was so happy and excited that I began to cry.I will never forget this day and I encourage everyone to go after that big event you have been thinking about, because although it will be hard,there are few more rewarding feelings than the feeling I had today crossing the finish line at the Chicago Marathon.

1.The writer ran a marathon because he/she wanted to

A.win a prize B.get into shape
