A
My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a
little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday
instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a
discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements
for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully
when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night.
Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have
gotten to bed.
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static ( 静 电 )
noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise
would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show,
and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back.
Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to
remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles ( 肌肉) shaking my
set.
When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly
and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it
stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is
working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.

Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design
your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You
can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways
to turn your home into part of diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to
encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious （ 难 为 情 ） when
they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t
have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study,
people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow
or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold
colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume
about 70 fewer calories（卡路里）per meal than those who rush through their meals.
Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And
while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn
on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat
about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When
we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake （ 摄 入 ） jumps by 14
percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a
tall, skinny glass.
25. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.
A. their home comforts B. their body shape
C. house buying D. healthy diets
26. A home environment in blue can help people_________.
A. digest food better B. reduce food intake
C. burn more calories D. regain their appetites
27. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.
C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.
28. What can be a suitable title for the test?
A. Is Your House Making You Fat? B. Ways of Serving Dinner
C. Effects of Self-Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?
C
More student than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年) before going to
university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-
year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants
between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.
This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education
institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university
entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).
That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony
Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher
education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied
with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more
mature and responsible,” he said.
But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of
