In recent years, a growing body of research has shown that our appetite and food intake are influenced by a large number of factors besides our biological need for energy, including our eating environment and our perception（感知） of the food in front of us.

Studies have shown, for instance, that eating in front of the TV (or a similar distraction) can increase both hunger and the amount of food consumed. Even simple visual clues, like plate size and lighting, have been shown to affect portion size and consumption.

A new study suggested that our short-term memory also may play a role in appetite. Several hours after a meal, people's hunger levels were predicted not by how much they’d eaten but rather by how much food they'd seen in front of them—in other words, how much they remembered eating.

This disparity (新旧研究的差异）suggests the memory of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our appetite than the actual size of the meal, says Jeffrey M. Brunstrom, a professor of experimental psychology at the University of Bristol.

"Hunger isn't controlled individually by the physical characteristics of a recent meal. We have identified an independent role for memory for that meal，" Brunstrom says. "This shows that the relationship between hunger and food intake is more complex than we thought."

These findings echo earlier research that suggests our perception of food can sometimes trick our body’s response to the food itself. In a 2011 study, for instance, people who drank the same 380-calorie milkshake on two separate occasions produced different levels of hunger-related hormones （荷尔蒙），depending on whether the shake’s label said it contained 620 or 140 calories. Moreover, the participants reported feeling more full when they thought they'd consumed a higher-calorie shake.

What does this mean for our eating habits? Although it hardly seems practical to trick ourselves into eating less, the new findings do highlight the benefits of focusing on our food and avoiding TV and multitasking while eating.

The so-called mindful-eating strategies can fight distractions and help us control our appetite, Brunstrom says.

1.What is said to be a factor affecting our appetite and food intake?

A. How we feel the food we eat.

B. When we eat our meals.

C. What element the food contains.

D. How fast we eat our meals.

2.What would happen at meal time if you remembered eating a lot in the previous meal?

A. You would probably be more particular about food.

B. You would not feel like eating the same food.

C. You would have a good appetite.

D. You would not feel so hungry.

3.What do we learn from the 2011 study?

A. Food labels may mislead consumers in their purchases.

B. Food labels may influence our body’s response to food.

C. Hunger levels depend on one's consumption of calories.

D. People tend to take in a lot more calories than necessary.

4.What does Brunstrom suggest we do to control our appetite?

A. Trick ourselves into eating less.

B. Choose food with fewer calories.

C. Concentrate on food while eating.

D. Pick dishes of the right size.

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Eating distractions often affect our food digestion.

B. Psychological factors influence our hunger levels.

C. Our food intake is determined by our biological needs.

D. Good eating habits will contribute to our health.

For centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone’s life as nothing.

Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organizations will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.

The expression“give someone the cold shoulder”probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.

A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers.

“Out in the cold”means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise —— he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.

1.There are 　　　　 expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.

A. 3　　 B. 4　　 C. 6　　 D. 7

2.When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by “　　　　 ”.

A. I give him the cold shoulder

B. I think he is a cold-blooded man

C. I think he is a cold fish

D. I’m likely to get cold feet

3.If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say 　　　　 .

A. she is a cold-blooded killer

B. she gets cold feet

C. she is a cold fish

D. she is out in the cold

4.We can use the expression “　　　　　 ” to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy.

A. cold-blooded　 B. cold shoulder

C. cold feet　 D. cold-hearted

5.The topic of this passage is about 　　　　　　 .

A. the relationship between cold and our body

B. some expressions about friendship

C. some expressions connected with cold

D. how cold weather comes into being

One of the areas of our body which conveys most about how we feel is how we move our hands and arms.　 1., but most often they occur unconsciously and naturally.

2.. Open hands and arms, especially extended, and with hands up in front of the body at chest height, indicate that what you’re saying is important, and, especially when people are speaking in public, a pointing finger or a hand waving above the shoulders stresses a personal point. However, research shows that people often find speakers who point their fingers a lot rather annoying.

Openness or honesty. 3., they will often hold one or both of their hands out to the other person. Footballers who have just committed a foul (犯规)often use this gesture to try to convince the referee that they didn’t do it.

Nervousness. If a person puts his hand to his mouth, this either indicates that he is hiding something, or that he is nervous. 4., and so does holding a bag or briefcase very tightly in front of the body.

Feeling defensive. Arms folded tightly over the chest is a classic gesture of defensiveness and indicates that you are protecting yourself. It is often seen among strangers in queues or in lifts or anywhere where people feel a bit insecure. People also sometimes use this gesture when they are listening to someone, to show that they disagree with what is being said. 5.!

A. Saying something important

B. When people want to be open or honest

C. Hand and arm gestures are sometimes intentional

D. But this gesture can simply mean that the person is cold

E. Playing with your fingers, like tapping the table, also shows anxiety
