HOUSTON (Reuters) — Houston tops a U.S. magazine’s annual fattest cities list for the fourth time in five years, with four other Texas cities in the top 25.

　Fast food restaurants — Houston has twice the national average number — are partly to blame for the dishonor, Men’s Fitness editor-in-chief Neal Boulton said.

　“Americans work long hours, don’t take vacations, and when they’re faced with the worst food choices, they indulge (沉溺于) in those,” he said.

　High humidity, poor air quality and some of the nation’s longest commute (每天去上班的路程) times also helped Texas’ most populous city unseat Detroit, the 2003 heavy weight champion, the magazine said.

　Houston Mayor Bill White, who has worked with a major food company to develop healthy food products and the city’s public schools to improve lunch menus, called the report “mostly ungrounded and nonsense.”

　“On the other hand, it calls attention to real issues the mayor is trying to deal with,” his spokesman, Frank Michel, said.

　The magazine said it looked at factors such as the number and types of restaurants, park space, air quality, weather and the number of health clubs.

　Philadelphia, Detroit, Memphis, Tennessee, and Chicago followed Houston on the seventh edition of the fat list. Texas cities Dallas, San Antonio, Fort Worth and El Paso were in the top 14, which Boulton said was no surprise.

　“It’s pure big indulgence, just living big, and that’s part of the culture,” said Boulton.

　Seattle ranked as the fittest city. Austin and Arlington, a Dallas-Fort Worth suburb, were the only Texas cities on the fit list. Austin was 19th and Arlington 22nd out of 25.

1.What decides the magazine’s annual fattest list?

2.Which city topped 2003 fattest cities list?

3.By saying “living big” (in Paragraph 9), Boulton means people _________.

4.Which of the following is best supported by the text?

Every year, millions of people head to London's Trafalgar Square to see Nelson's Column,and the four Iion statues that “guard” it. And last month, during the London Design Festival, a bright red lion sculpture was added to the collection.

But this was more than just a statue: It had a large open mouth, with an LED screen inside it.At the same time, passersby could type in random words on a screen close to the lion, which were used to produce an AI-created poem. The most interesting part of the poems lies in their randomness, as the words that people choose to enter include many things, such as the time, the weather and their mood. Ín the daytime, the finished poem appeared on the LED screen, but at night, it was projected (投射) onto the lion's body and the famous Nelson’s Column, in a 1ovely light display.

Es Devlin, the sculpture's creator, was inspired by the history behind the four historic lion statues. Edwin Landseer, the designer of the lions, wanted them to look much more animạted, but Queen Vietoria refused his plan. This made Devlin wonder, "What if we could give a lion a poetic voice?". According to Devlin, althọugh England has seen many poems about national identity in recent years, these works have been lacking imagination. "I wanted to make a piece that was poetic and collective" he told BBC News.

Afier standing for almost 180 years, the purpose of Trafalgar Square has changed over the years. But thanks to the high-tech lion and its poetry, the square is standing the test of time.

1.Why was the red lion more than just a statue?

A. It had an LED screen inside it.　　 B. It had a larger mouth than the others.

C. It could produce an AI-created poem.　　 D. Poems were projected onto the lion's body-

2.Which of the following best explains "randomness" underlined in Paragraph2?

A. Lacking styles.　　 B. Not having regular patterns.

C. Being special.　　 D. Attraction to readers.

3.What does Devlin think of poems about national identity in England in recent years?

A. They are creative.　　 B. They are not popular.

C. They are not imaginative.　　 D. They are poetic and collective.

4.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Es Devlin's New Creation.　　 B. The London Design Festival.

C. A Big Event in Trafalgar Square.　　 D. The red lion in Trafalgar Square.
