27、ink English tea. He was curious, so he tried some and found that it didnt taste bad with milk and sugar in it. Adding more water to tea is free of course, so he drank more cups.

It hopes this will stop kids from making poor food choices.First Lady Michelle Obama called it a “game changer” that is sure to send a message to the rest of the chi

42、ldrens entertainment industry. “Just a few years ago, if you had told me or any other mom or dad in America that our kids wouldnt see a single ad for junk food while they watched their favorite cartoons on a major TV network, we wouldnt have believed you,” said the First Lady, who heads a campaign t

43、o help stop child obesity.The ban would apply to Disney-owned ABC stations as well as Radio Disney and Disney-owned websites aimed at families with young children.

50、ntrate.” “My mind wanders when I try to study.” Lack of concentration is one of the most common complaints heard at school.We all have the ability to concentrate. Think of the times when you were attracted to a super novel or the times when you were playing your guitar or piano. But at other times y

51、our mind races from one thing to another. Here are some tips.Rest from time to time. Remember to take short breaks. Lectures are usually 50 minutes long, and thats about the length of time most people can direct their attention to one task. But thats just an average. Your concentration time might be

52、 shorter (20-35 minutes) or longer (perhaps 90 minutes).When you take a break, you get more oxygen to your brain! When we sit for long periods, blood tends to be pooled in our lower body and legs. Get up and walk around the room for a couple of minutes. As a result, more oxygen is carried to the bra

53、in and you can concentrate better._If you study one subject for a long time, you may find it hard to concentrate. Many students improve their concentration by changing one subject to another every one to two hours. In this way you can pay more attention to something thats different.Reward yourself.

54、Give yourself a reward when youve completed a task. The task might be small, such as staying with a difficult paper until youve finished. But giving yourself a reward can help you be more interested in doing other tasks.Increase your activity level. Your concentration wanders more easily if you just

55、 read an article straight through. Instead, take the heading for each part and turn it into a question. For this part, that would be, “How can I increase my activity level while studying?” Then study that part to answer that question. Do this routinely. The questions give us a focus for each part an

56、d increase our involvement(参与).63. According to Paragraph 3, whats the purpose of walking around?A. To help us stay fit.B. To benefit our lower body.C. To provide the brain with more oxygen.D. To increase our concentration time to 90 minutes.64. Whats the best title for Paragraph 4?A. Study for one

57、hour each time.B. Do something difficult.C. Study in different ways.D. Change subjects.65.

59、y popular expressions. Some people are able to lead other people by the nose. For example, if a wife leads her husband by the nose, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do. Some people are said to be hard-nosed. They will not change their opinions or positions on anything.It is always helpful

60、when people keep their nose out of other peoples business. They do not interfere (干涉). The opposite of this is someone who noses around all the time. Such people are interested in other peoples private matters. Theyre considered nosy. Someone who keeps his nose to the grindstone (磨石) works very hard

61、. This can help a worker keep his nose clean or stay out of trouble.One unusual expression is that is no skin off my nose. This means that a situation doesnt affect or concern me. We also say that sometimes a person cuts off his nose to spite his face. That is, he makes a situation bad for himself b

62、y doing something foolish because he is angry.More problems can develop if a person looks down his nose at someone or something. The person acts as if something is unimportant or worthless. This person might also turn up his nose at something that he considers not good enough. This person thinks he

63、is better than everyone else. He has his nose in the air.In school, some students thumb their nose at their teacher. They refuse to obey orders or do any work. Maybe the students do not know the correct answers. My mother always told me when I was a student, “If you study hard, the answers should be

64、 right under your nose or easily seen.”67. If we say a wife leads her husband by the nose, we probably mean she _.
