We eat takeout, packaged and prepared meals. Why? Because it fits our notenoughtimeintheday lifestyles._1_ Well, Im certainly not the first one to think it or say it, but we all need to slow down.Consumer trends around the globe show that over the past three decades people are purchasing more prepared foods at groceries and eating out more than ever before. Its predicted that well spend more at restaurants in the ing years._2_ However, were getting less healthy. While debates can be seen in different media over the food industrys contribution to our growing waistlines and our health problems, the bottom line is this：_3_ We can choose to eat a fastfood lunch on the go. We can throw a frozen meal in the microwave and call it dinner. We can eat without thinking, in front of the tube, at our puters, and while driving a car. _4_ Studies have shown meaningful links between family meals and kids mental and physical wellbeing. Eating sensibly doesnt take much time or money, but it does require you to make a conscious decision to do so. Wrapped up in endless work, appointments and social activities, we often fail to enjoy a relaxing meal with our families. While it can be a challenge to always put healthy eating first, just do your best. Remember that the food you eat has a more significant effect on your health, weight and wellbeing than almost any other activities you do._5_ Every meal made at home even just once or twice a week is a step closer to a healthier body and a slower eating style.ALunch is the biggest calorie intake when it es to eating out.BTreat it with the importance that it deserves, but start small.COur food matches our lives.DPurchase food locally and skip as many packaged items as you can.EWhat we eat, where we eat and how we eat are all under our control.FWere consuming an increasing number of calories.GWe can devote an hour of the day to enjoying a meal with our families.【文章大意】本文是一篇議論文。因?yàn)樯罟?jié)奏加快，許多人習(xí)慣于吃快餐。事實(shí)上，快餐并不健康，并且消費(fèi)很大；為此作者呼吁人們遠(yuǎn)離快餐，重視飲食習(xí)慣。1答案與解析：C根據(jù)空前內(nèi)容可知，隨著人們生活節(jié)奏的加快，人們的飲食習(xí)慣也發(fā)生了改變。所以，C項(xiàng)“我們的食物適應(yīng)我們的生活(方式)”符合語(yǔ)境。2答案與解析：F根據(jù)空前的“Its predicted that well spend more at restaurants in the ing years”可知，人們?cè)絹?lái)越多地在外面吃飯，攝入越來(lái)越多的卡路里，然而，人們正在變得越來(lái)越不健康。故F項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。3答案與解析：E根據(jù)空后內(nèi)容可知，吃什么、在哪里吃以及怎樣吃都由我們自己掌控。故E項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。4答案與解析：G根據(jù)空后的“Studies have shown meaningful links between family meals and kidsmental and physical wellbeing”可知，與家人一塊吃飯有很大的好處。所以，G項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。5答案與解析：B根據(jù)第五段內(nèi)容可知，飲食對(duì)人們的健康很重要。作者建議人們盡量在家吃飯。又結(jié)合空后內(nèi)容可知，把健康飲食放在第一位可從小事做起。B項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。四、書(shū)面表達(dá)閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫(xiě)一篇60詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。Some experts argue the fact that almost one in four teens is constantly online is a dangerous thing, yet I believe that its an opportunity. Technology brings us closer together and can help us in everyday life rather than replacing friends with screens.First, I believe that technology takes the embarrassment out of face-to-face contact, as talking to someone may make you unfortable. You could not say what is on your mind. A much simpler way of municating is through texts. By texting a person, there is no resistance(抵抗) to what you are trying to say. You are able to revise your words before you send them, hopefully not saying something you will later regret or that could hurt someones feelings. Apart from making friends face-to-face, there are other ways of interaction using technology. Technology can help bond people together by showing similar interests.Second, technology can help friends and family keep in touch. When moments together are not within reach, the next best thing is to use technology to catch up on each others life and share precious moments through videos and calls. The ability to play back a memory on a screen is amazing, something that can be cherished and kept forever.Some may argue technology is the problem in the world, but I do not. I believe that technology helps you escape the evil and pressure in the world and has the ability to let you create your own world where what others say or think doesnt matter. After a stressful time, technology is there to help you municate and remind you what you should be grateful for, or just make your day a little better.In conclusion, I believe that not only is technology not replacing friends with screens but its actually bringing us closer together and establishing relationships among teens. Overall, I believe this topic makes the world a better place by making it easier to create friends, and make otherwise lost friends keep in touch._【內(nèi)容概要】Paragraph 1：盡管一些專家認(rèn)為將近四分之一的青少年經(jīng)常上網(wǎng)是一件令人擔(dān)憂的事情，但我認(rèn)為它是一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)。科技能使我們更加親近彼此，有助于我們的日常生活。Paragraph 2：科技可以幫助人們避免面對(duì)面交流時(shí)會(huì)遇到的尷尬，因?yàn)榕c他人交談可能會(huì)使人們感到不自在。Paragraph 3：科技可以幫助朋友和家人保持聯(lián)系，使人們了解彼此的生活，通過(guò)視頻和電話分享生活中的珍貴時(shí)刻，珍藏美好回憶。Paragraph 4：科技能幫助人們避開(kāi)不好的事情和壓力，讓人們創(chuàng)造屬于自己的世界，幫助人們進(jìn)行交流，提醒人們懂得感恩。Paragraph 5：總之，科技不僅不會(huì)用屏幕來(lái)取代朋友，而且能拉近人和人之間的距離，幫助青少年建立友誼，挽回失去的朋友，以讓世界變得更美好。
