The Diet Zne: A Dangerus Place
Diet Cke，diet Pepsi，diet pills，n-fat diet，vegetable are surrunded by the wrd “diet” everywhere we lk and listen．We have s easily been attracted by the prmise and ptential f diet prducts that we have stpped thinking abut what diet prducts are ding t us．We are paying fr prducts that harm us psychlgically and physically．
Diet prducts significantly weaken us psychlgically．On ne level，we aren’t allwing ur brain t admit that ur weight prblems lie nt in actually lsing the weight，but in cntrlling the cnsumptin f fatty，high-calrie and unhealthy fds．Diet prducts allw us t jump ver the thinking stage and g straight fr the scale（秤） instead．All we have t d is t swallw r recgnize the wrd “diet” in fd labels．
On anther level，diet prducts have greater psychlgical effects．Every time we have a zer-calrie drink，we are telling urselves withut ur awareness that we dn’t have t wrk t get results．Diet prducts make peple believe that gain cmes withut pain，and that life can be withut resistance and struggle．
The danger f diet prducts lies nt nly in the psychlgical effects they have n us，but als in the physical harm that they cause．Diet fds can indirectly harm ur bdies because cnsuming them instead f healthy fds means we are preventing ur bdies frm having basic nutrients（营养成分）．Diet fds and diet pills cntain zer calrie nly because the diet industry has created chemicals t prduce these wnder prducts．Diet prducts may nt be nutritinal，and the chemicals that g int diet prducts are ptentially dangerus．
Nw that we are aware f the effects that diet prducts have n us，it is time t seriusly think abut buying them．Lsing weight lies in the pwer f minds，nt in the pwer f chemicals．Once we realize this，we will be much better able t resist diet prducts，and therefre prevent the psychlgical harm that cmes frm using them．
42．Frm the passage，we learn that __________．
A．peple are fed up with diet prducts B．peple have difficulty in chsing diet prducts
C．diet prducts are misleading peple D．diet prducts fail t bring ut peple’s ptential
43．One psychlgical effect f diet prducts is that peple tend t __________．
A．try ut a variety f diet fds B．hesitate befre they enjy diet fds
C．pay attentin t their wn eating habits D．watch their weight rather than their diet
44．In Paragraph 3，“gain cmes withut pain” prbably means __________．
A．lsing weight is effrtless B．it csts a lt t lse weight
C．diet prducts bring n pain D．diet prducts are free frm calries
45．Which f the fllwing shws the structure f the passage?

Sectin C 8%
Directins: Read the fllwing passage．Fill in each blank with a prper sentence given in the bx．Each sentence can be used nly nce．Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need．
选项：A．But hw did it all begin?
B．What are the rules f punctuatin?
C．Als at this time，sentences switched directins．
D．Punctuatin is used t create sense and stress in sentences．
E．The best way t check yur punctuatin is t read writing alud．
F．Their use depended upn pauses fr breath rather than grammatical rules．
In written English，punctuatin is vital t disambiguate（消除歧义） the meaning f sentences． 46
It is knwn that the ancient Greeks wrte their texts withut any difference between small letters and capitals and they didn’t have punctuatin marks．As they read，they just put pauses where they fit best． 47 A sentence was read frm left t right．The next ne was read right t left，and then left t right again，etc．
In the 3rd century BCE，a librarian named Aristphanes，chief f staff at the city’s famus library，fund the need t use signs t help understand a text mre easily．Aristphanes’ breakthrugh was t suggest that readers culd add ntes t their dcuments，relieving the unbrken stream f text with dts．
Early seventeenth century writers appeared t use clns（冒号），semiclns，and cmmas interchangeably 48 ．In cntrast，writers f the late seventeenth century tried t make specific rules fr the use f the cln，semicln and cmma．
Punctuatin is cnstantly evlving，because language shuld change with the needs f the times．The purpse f punctuatin is t make reading and writing easy by indicating the necessary pauses，thus making meaning clear and preventing misunderstanding． 49 Wherever yu pause，yu need a punctuatin mark．
