Althugh there is a lng way t g t get the $10, 000 prize, it wuld really help my parents, and we’re feeling cnfident and hpeful that we can win.” Karla said.

Many scientists believe ur lve f sugar may actually be an addictin. When we eat r drink sugary fds, the sugar enters ur bld and affects parts f ur brain that make us feel gd. Then the gd feeling ges away, leaving us wanting mre. All tasty fds d this, but sugar has a particularly strng effect. In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, which dctrs suggest we all shuld cut dwn n.
“It seems like every time I study an illness and search fr the first cause, I find my way back t sugar,” says scientist Richard Jhnsn. One-third f adults wrldwide have high bld pressure, and up t 347 millin adults have diabetes (糖尿病) . Why? “Sugar, we believe is ne f the culprits, if nt the majr reasn,” says Jhnsn.
Our bdies are designed t survive n very little sugar. Early humans ften had very little fd, s ur bdies learned t be very efficient in string sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stred when there was n fd. But tday, mst peple have mre than enugh. S the very thing that nce saved us may nw be killing us.
S what is the slutin? It’s bvius that we need t eat less sugar. The truble is, in tday’s wrld, it’s extremely difficult t avid. Frm breakfast cereals(谷物) t after-dinner desserts, ur fds are increasingly filled with it.
But there are thse wh are fighting back against sugar. Many schls are replacing sugary desserts with healthier fd like fruit Other schls are grwing their wn fd in gardens, r building facilities like walking tracks s students and thers in the cmmunity can exercise.
28. What d scientists think f sugar?
A. It benefits ur health.B. It is less addictive than drugs.
C. It causes us t becme dependent n itD. It shuld be taken under a dctr’s guidance.
29. What des the underlined wrd “culprits” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Diseases.B. Pr diets. C. Unknwn things.D. Causes f a prblem.
30. Why is it s hard t avid sugar?
A. We like it t much. B. We cannt survive withut it.
C. It gives us much needed energy.D. It’s in s many fds and drinks.
31. What is the best title fr the passage?
A. Ways t Avid SugarB. Our Addictin t Sugar
C. Illnesses Caused by SugarD. Gd Sugar VS Bad Sugar

Scientists wh study happiness knw that being kind t thers can imprve happiness. Acts as simple as buying a cup f cffee fr smene can better a persn’s md (心情), fr example. Every day life affrds many chances fr such actins, yet peple d nt always make use f them.
In a set f studies published nline in the Jurnal f Experimental Psychlgy: General, Nick Epley, a behaviral scientist, and I examined a pssible explanatin. We fund that peple wh perfrm randm (随机的) acts f kindness d nt always realize hw much f an effect they are having n anther persn. Peple usually think little f hw thers value these acts.
Acrss ur investigatins, several results came ut. Fr ne, bth givers and receivers f the acts f kindness were in mre psitive mds than usual after these exchanges. Fr anther, it was clear that givers undervalued (低估) their effect; receivers felt much better than the kind givers expected. The receivers als really recgnized these acts as “bigger” than the peple perfrming them did.
At first, we studied acts f kindness dne fr familiar peple, such as friends, classmates r family. But later we fund that givers undervalued their psitive effect n strangers as well. In ne experiment, givers in a public park gave away ht chclate t strangers n a cld winter’s day. Once again, the experience was mre psitive than the givers expected fr the receivers. While the peple giving the ht chclate saw the act as unimprtant, it really mattered t the receivers.
Our findings suggest that what might seem small t the givers culd matter a great deal t the receivers. Since these warm acts can prmte ur wn md and brighten the day f anther persn, why nt chse kindness when we can?
32. What d givers seldm think abut?
A. Cmments abut their acts.B. Effects f their acts n thers.
C. Scientists’ explanatin.D. Taste f happiness.
33. What des the underlined wrd “them” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. Investigatins. B. Mds.C. Acts.D. Exchanges.
34. Why des the authr mentin “gave away ht chclate t strangers” in paragraph 4?
A. T explain a rule.B. T prve a finding.
C. T present a fact.D. T shw a tpic.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Warm Acts Are Usually Valued
B. Warm Acts Are Necessary Fr Peple
C. Kindness Can Have Unexpectedly Psitive Results
D. Kindness Can Unexpectedly Brighten Our Own Day

Althugh there is a lng way t g t get the $10, 000 prize, it wuld really help my parents, and we’re feeling cnfident and hpeful that we can win.” Karla said.

Many scientists believe ur lve f sugar may actually be an addictin. When we eat r drink sugary fds, the sugar enters ur bld and affects parts f ur brain that make us feel gd. Then the gd feeling ges away, leaving us wanting mre. All tasty fds d this, but sugar has a particularly strng effect. In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, which dctrs suggest we all shuld cut dwn n.
“It seems like every time I study an illness and search fr the first cause, I find my way back t sugar,” says scientist Richard Jhnsn. One-third f adults wrldwide have high bld pressure, and up t 347 millin adults have diabetes (糖尿病) . Why? “Sugar, we believe is ne f the culprits, if nt the majr reasn,” says Jhnsn.
Our bdies are designed t survive n very little sugar. Early humans ften had very little fd, s ur bdies learned t be very efficient in string sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stred when there was n fd. But tday, mst peple have mre than enugh. S the very thing that nce saved us may nw be killing us.
S what is the slutin? It’s bvius that we need t eat less sugar. The truble is, in tday’s wrld, it’s extremely difficult t avid. Frm breakfast cereals(谷物) t after-dinner desserts, ur fds are increasingly filled with it.
But there are thse wh are fighting back against sugar. Many schls are replacing sugary desserts with healthier fd like fruit Other schls are grwing their wn fd in gardens, r building facilities like walking tracks s students and thers in the cmmunity can exercise.
28. What d scientists think f sugar?
A. It benefits ur health.B. It is less addictive than drugs.
C. It causes us t becme dependent n itD. It shuld be taken under a dctr’s guidance.
29. What des the underlined wrd “culprits” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?

30. Why is it s hard t avid sugar?
A. We like it t much. B. We cannt survive withut it.
C. It gives us much needed energy.D. It’s in s many fds and drinks.

Scientists wh study happiness knw that being kind t thers can imprve happiness. Acts as simple as buying a cup f cffee fr smene can better a persn’s md (心情), fr example. Every day life affrds many chances fr such actins, yet peple d nt always make use f them.
In a set f studies published nline in the Jurnal f Experimental Psychlgy: General, Nick Epley, a behaviral scientist, and I examined a pssible explanatin. We fund that peple wh perfrm randm (随机的) acts f kindness d nt always realize hw much f an effect they are having n anther persn. Peple usually think little f hw thers value these acts.
Acrss ur investigatins, several results came ut. Fr ne, bth givers and receivers f the acts f kindness were in mre psitive mds than usual after these exchanges. Fr anther, it was clear that givers undervalued (低估) their effect; receivers felt much better than the kind givers expected. The receivers als really recgnized these acts as “bigger” than the peple perfrming them did.
At first, we studied acts f kindness dne fr familiar peple, such as friends, classmates r family. But later we fund that givers undervalued their psitive effect n strangers as well. In ne experiment, givers in a public park gave away ht chclate t strangers n a cld winter’s day. Once again, the experience was mre psitive than the givers expected fr the receivers. While the peple giving the ht chclate saw the act as unimprtant, it really mattered t the receivers.
Our findings suggest that what might seem small t the givers culd matter a great deal t the receivers. Since these warm acts can prmte ur wn md and brighten the day f anther persn, why nt chse kindness when we can?
32. What d givers seldm think abut?
A. Cmments abut their acts.B. Effects f their acts n thers.
C. Scientists’ explanatin.D. Taste f happiness.
33. What des the underlined wrd “them” in paragraph 3 refer t?
A. Investigatins. B. Mds.C. Acts.D. Exchanges.
34. Why des the authr mentin “gave away ht chclate t strangers” in paragraph 4?
A. T explain a rule.B. T prve a finding.
C. T present a fact.D. T shw a tpic.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Warm Acts Are Usually Valued
B. Warm Acts Are Necessary Fr Peple
C. Kindness Can Have Unexpectedly Psitive Results
D. Kindness Can Unexpectedly Brighten Our Own Day
