You can try these.Stop drinking something with too much sugar in it.Refuse sweet cakes.Eat green vegetables.〔4〕 Never eat after 6:30pm.Also, do light exercise for 15 to 20minutes five days a week.Then I kept doing what I should do. People sometimes say, "You don't need to tell me what to do.I know it already!" But the fact is that knowing what to do and doing what you know are different.〔5〕A. But I bought nothing.B. Use only vegetable oil.C. What was the secret to my success?D. I must lose my weight at onceE. The doctor told me that I was having heart trouble.F.

初中英语阅读理解七选五(含解析)(一)“How are you” is a nice question. It’s a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. __1__ It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks, “How are you” expects to hear the answer “Fine,” even if th e person isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. ___2_.Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean.

I think you are wrong.” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” __3__People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or “Something is burning on the stove.” __4__ The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. ___5__A.
