You are not alone. Holidays are times for feasting and celebrating. Many people are worried about their weight. 36 Whether you are celebrating at the office party or sitting down for the traditional family dinner, regard eating as a time for tasting a variety of foods. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. Here are some tips for preventing weight gain and maintaining physical fitness: Don’t skip meals. Before you leave home, have a small, lowfat meal or snack. 37__ Control portions. Use a small plate (about 10 inches) and put aside the large ones that may encourage you to ―load up.‖ 38 Once you have your ―tasting‖ serving, move away from the dining table. Doing so will make it less tempting (吸引人的 ) to be eating constantly as your appetite is inspired by the sight of food. Begin with soup and fruit or vegetables. Fill up beforehand with waterbased soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Or drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you feel full. Stick to physical activity. 39 A 20minute walk after a meal can help burn off additional calories. 40 Dishes that look oily or creamy may have a large amount of fat. Choose lean meats. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables. Use lemon juice instead of dressing or butter. A. This may help to avoid getting too excited before delicious food. B. You had better turn your attention away from delicious foods. C. With proper planning, though, it is possible to keep normal weight during the holidays. D. You should be most fortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist. E. Avoid highfat foods. F. Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. G. You’d better remember the Dos and Don’ts for keeping fit and slim. 第三部分 英語知識運用 (共兩節(jié) , 滿分 45分 ) 第一節(jié) 完形填空（共 20 小題；每小題 分，滿分 30 分） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個選項（ A、 B、 C 和 D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。 My husband Jeff and I moved into our new home in Scottsbluff last year just before Christmas. I did not have the 41 or energy to carry out my traditional Christmas decorating and baking activities. What was the point, anyway? It was going to be a 42 Christmas after all. 43 , the neighborly nature of west Nebraska residents started to trickle (陸續(xù)來臨 ) in. There was a 44 on the door one evening. It was Jeff’s new colleague, John Smith, and his wife, Phyllis. The Smiths had stopped by to 45 us with a loaf of homemade bread. They pointed out a 46 on the porch (門廊 ). Apparently the doorbell wasn’t working in the cold snowy weather and we had 47 a visit from the Browns, our acrossthestreet neighbors, who brought us a Christmas card and more Christmas cookies. The 48 feelings brought by these thoughtful gestures lasted longer than the food. As Jeff and I were 49 preChristmas snow from our driveway, Ernie Guzman came over from next door to 50 us to dig out. Then, we received an invitation to 51 a Christmas Eve meal with our neighbors, Ernie and Nancy Sommer, and their 52 —a 90yearold lady, who also had no family in the immediate area with whom to spend the holiday.
