Nowadays, many people go on diets and work out to keep a good figure. But do you know that your house may have an effect on your figure? Some experts say how you design your home could play a part 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.

Draw the curtains aside and turn on 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.

1.The passage is especially helpful for those who care about_______.

A. their home comforts　　　　 B. house buying

C. healthy diets 　　　　　 　　 D. their body shape

2.A home environment in blue can help people_________.

A. digest food better　　　　 　 B. burn more calories

C. reduce food intake　　　　　 D. regain their appetites

3.What are people advised to do at mealtimes?

A.Use smaller spoons.

B.Play fast music.

C.Eat quickly

D.Turn down the lights.

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

A. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?

B.Ways of Serving Dinner

C.Effects of Self-Conscious

D.Is Your House Making You Fat ?

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it，and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train，car or bus，even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money，one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.

Then，in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses，one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings，one can enjoy the fresh，clean air of the country.

Some people，however，take no interest in country things：for them，happiness lies in the town，with its cinemas and theatres，beautiful shops and busy streets，dance halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want：the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.
