2、iversities 二、 Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions attached to the passage. For questions 1-4, mark： Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given

3、 in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. 1 Calories For years now, calories have been all the rage-people are counting them and cutting them, and youd be hard-pressed to find some

4、thing at the supermarket that does not list its calories per serving somewhere on the package. But have you ever wondered what exactly a calorie is? What is a Calorie A calorie is a unit of energy. We tend to associate calories with food, but they apply to anything containing energy. For example, a

5、gallon (about 4 liters) of gasoline contains about 31,000,000 calories. Specifically, a calorie is the amount of energy, or heat, it takes to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit). One calorie is equal to 4. 184 joules, a common unit of energy used in the

6、 physical sciences. Most of us think of calories in relation to food, as in “This can of soda has 200 calories.“ It turns out that the calories on a food package are actually kilocalories (1,000 calories = 1 kilocalorie). The word is sometimes capitalized to show the difference, but usually not. A f

7、ood calorie contains 4,184 joules. A can of soda containing 200 food calories contains 200,000 regular calories, or 200 kilocalories. A gallon of gasoline contains 31,000 kilocalories. The same applies to exercise when a fitness chart says you burn about 100 calories for every mile you jog, it means

8、 100 kilocalories. For the duration of this article, when we say “calorie,“ we mean “kilocalorie.“ What Calories Do Human beings need energy to survive to breathe, move, pump blood and they acquire this energy from food. The number of calories in a food is a measure of how much potential energy that

9、 food possesses. A gram of carbohydrates(碳水化合物 ) has 4 calories, a gram of protein has 4 calories, and a gram of fat has 9 calories. Foods are a compilation (集合 ) of these three building blocks. So if you know how many carbohydrates, fats and proteins are in any given food, you know how many calorie

10、s, or how much energy, that food contains. If we look at the nutritional label on the back of a packet of maple-and-brown-sugar oatmeal, we find that it has 160 calories. This means that if we were to pour this oatmeal into a dish, set the oatmeal on fire and get it to burn completely (which is actu

11、ally pretty tricky), the reaction would produce 160 kilocalories (remember: food calories are kilocalories) enough energy to raise the temperature of 160 kilograms of water 1 degree Celsius. If we look closer at the nutritional label, we see that our oatmeal has 2 grams of fat, 4 grams of protein an

12、d 32 grams of carbohydrates, producing a total of 162 calories (apparently, food manufacturers like to round down). Of these 162 calories, 18 come from fat (9 cal 2g), 16 come from protein(4 cal 4g) and 128 come from carbohydrates (4 cal 32g). Your Calorie Needs Just how many calories do our cells n

13、eed to function well? The number is different for every person. You may notice on the nutritional labels of the foods you buy that the “percent daily values“ are based on a 2,000 calorie diet 2,000 calories is a rough average of what a person needs to eat in a day, but your body might need more or l

14、ess than 2,000 calories. Height, weight, gender, age and activity level all affect your caloric needs. There are three main factors involved in calculating how many calories your body needs per day: Basal metabolic rate (基本新陈代谢率 ) Physical activity Thermic (热的 ) effect of food Your basal metabolic r

15、ate (BMR) is the amount of energy your body needs to function at rest. This accounts for about 60 to 70 percent of calories burned in a day and includes the energy required to keep the heart beating, the lungs breathing, the kidneys functioning and the body temperature stabilized. In general, men ha

16、ve a higher BMR than women. The second factor in the equation, physical activity, consumes the next highest number of calories. Physical activity includes everything from making your bed to jogging. Walking, lifting, bending, and just generally moving around burns calories, but the number of calorie

17、s you burn in any given activity depends on your body weight. The thermic effect of food is the final addition to the number of calories your body burns. This is the amount of energy your body uses to digest the food you eat it takes energy to break food down to its basic elements in order to be use

18、d by the body. To calculate the number of calories you expend in this process, multiply the total number of calories you eat in a day by 0.10, or 10 percent. Calories, Fat and Exercise So what happens if you take in more or fewer calories than your body burns? You either gain or lose fat, respective

19、ly. An accumulation of 3,500 extra calories is stored by your body as 1 pound of fat fat is the bodys way of saving energy for a rainy day (以备不时之需 ). If, on the other hand, you burn 3,500 more calories than you eat, whether by exercising more or eating less, your body converts 1 pound of its stored

20、fat into energy to make up for the deficit. One thing about exercise is that it raises your metabolic rate not only while youre buffing and puffing(喘气 ) on the treadmill. Your metabolism takes a while to return to its normal pace. It continues to function at a higher level; your body burns an increa

21、sed number of calories for about two hours after youve stopped exercising. Lots of people wonder if it matters where their calories come from. At is most basic, it we eat exactly the number of calories that we burn and if were only talking about weight, the answer is no a calorie is a calorie. A pro

22、tein calorie is no different from a fat calorie they are simply units of energy. As long as you burn what you eat, you will maintain your weight; and as long as you burn more than you eat, youll lose weight. But if were talking nutrition, it definitely matters where those calories originate. Carbohy

23、drates and proteins are healthier sources of calories than fats. Although our bodies do need a certain amount of fat to function properly an adequate supply of fat allows your body to absorb the vitamins you ingest an excess of fat can have serious health consequences. The U. S. Food and Drug Admini

24、stration recommends that a maximum of 30 percent of our daily calories come from fat. So, if you eat 2,000 calories a day, thats a maximum of 600 calories from fat, or 67 grams of fat, per day. However, many doctors and nutritionists now set the maximum number of fat calories at 25 percent of our da

25、ily caloric intake. Thats 56 grams of fat per day for a 2,000 calorie diet. 2 This passage is mainly about how to solve obesity. （ A） Y （ B） N （ C） NG 3 A calorie is a unit of energy associates with anything containing energy. （ A） Y （ B） N （ C） NG 4 1,000 calories on a food package equals to 1 kilo
