Ⅱ.阅读填空
A listener has written from China for advice about how to lose weight.Michael in Shanghai says he is 26 and has battled with obesity for most of his life.
Obesity,a severe weight problem,is a complex condition.A doctor may advise taking medicine along with changing one's behaviors.Experts say that the most successful weight-loss plans include a well-balanced diet and exercise.
People who want to avoid weight gain have to balance the number of calories they eat with the number of calories they use.To lose weight,you can reduce the number of calories you take in,increase the number you use,or both.
A recent study looked at four of the most popular dieting plans in the US.Researchers at Stanford University in California studied over 300 overweight women,mostly in their thirties and forties.Each woman went on one of the four plans:Atkins,The Zone,Ornish or LEARN.The women attended diet classes and received written information about the food plans.
At the end of the year,the women on the Atkins diet had lost the most,more than four and one-half kilograms on average.They also did better on tests for cholesterol levels and blood pressure.
Christopher Gardner,who led the study,says the Atkins diet may be more successful because of its simple message to eat less sugar.He also says that the advice to increase protein in the diet leads to more satisfying meals.He says that there was not enough money to study men,but that men would probably have similar results.
Last week,another report based on thirty-one studies suggested that only a small minority of people have long-term success with dieting.Most dieters regained their lost weight within five years and often they become more overweight.But those who kept the weight off generally were the ones who exercised.

Ⅲ.阅读简答
When making decisions about land use,some say that human should come before animal needs in any case.While I agree that human needs should have primary consideration,humans have a responsibility to protect the land of animals.
Animals adapt very slowly to environment changes.Many endangered animals can only live in one place,or live in some specific type of area,while humans,on the other hand,can adapt quickly to the changing and hostile environment.For instance,if people need to live in a very dry place,they can use technology to locate and drill water,or build pipelines to bring water in from outside.The residents in Xinjiang province dug underground tunnels hundreds of kilometers long to carry water to oasis towns such as Turpan.Because humans are more flexible while many animals are not,people should make an effort to use up all available spaces before encroaching upon the habitats of animals.
Another important reason why people should protect animals is that the delicate ecological balance might be irreparably harmed by extinction.For example,if farmers chop down the forests and use the land to grow corn,they might simultaneously destroy their homes of a kind of bird that eats locusts.The next year the locust population can grow unchecked,and then the locusts can destroy the entire nearby corn crop.Not only do the birds lose their homes,but humans also are harmed.The ecological balance of many natural habitats is still not well understood and humans interfere in it at their peril.
Finally,humans can learn some valuable things from animals.One example is in the field of medicine.By observing a particular kind of monkey in south America,scientists have discovered that the monkeys eat a kind of plant when they get sick,through researching,the scientists found out that this specific plant also has medicinal value for humans.If the monkey's habitat had been destroyed to create more farmland,not only would we lose the monkeys and the plants,but we would also lose life-saving medicines and the potential for medical research.
To ensure a better world for both the humans and the animals,we have no time to waste and actions should be taken right now.

【参考范文】
Recently an activity has been going on in our school which is called “Becoming a Guardian to Protect the Environment”.Students are asked to hand in used batteries,newspapers and so on to get a card as a reward.I think we can benefit a lot from this activity.
Firstly,this activity will help to raise our environmental awareness and save resources.Secondly,the used batteries are harmful to the environment.Recycling them has been of great importance in terms of conserving natural resources,environment protection and human health.
Meanwhile,we can still do a lot more to help protect the environment.For example,we should remember to turn off the light before we leave the room.And we shouldn't leave the tap water running after we use it.
