To many people, the cause seems obvious: we eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea.Several modern studies have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people and that slim people are more active than fat people.I believe that this shows overweight people can become relatively slim gradually via a progressive program of regular exercise. The key is regular, enjoyable activity.Use of energy(calories) by the body falls into two categories. The first is energy used for essential bodily functionsdigestion, heart beat, breathingand BMR(新陈代谢). In an average-sized adult, BMR requires about 1400 calories per day.The second category is energy used for physical activitystanding, walking and all other movements. Together with the BMR, it makes up total calorie use, which should be balanced by food intake for weight to remain stable.For years now, we have known that dietingespecially severe dieting(400 calories per day, for instance)decreases BMR. This is the bodys defense system to keep energy when food supply is reduced. Unfortunately, it tends to weaken the diets effects by enabling the body to “get by” on fewer calories. For this reason, I believe that severe dieting is not a good way to lose weight, and all dieting should be seen as a temporary measure.In addition to helping weight loss and continued weight control, regular exercise has many other features to recommend it. While weight loss by dieting alone results in some loss of muscle as well as fat, weight loss by exercise and moderate dieting leads to an increased proportion（均衡）of muscle mass. The regular exerciser has good heart function too.Regular exercise helps to raise blood levels of highdensity lipoprotein(HDL) and increased exercise leads to increased food intake and thus to increased intake of critical nutrients (营养).The benefits of eating more because of an increase in physical activity are not widely appreciated. Many people in this country, by actual measurement, have remarkably low calorie intake. Often the amount is so low (1 200 to 1 800 calories a day) that nutritionists worry about the adequacy(足够的)of their vitamin and mineral intake. And too little food, with inadequate fiber content, leads in the old population to chronic constipation(长期便秘)To sum up, most Americans still get too little regular exercise, and it is within this group that almost all obesity is found. Severe dieting should not be used as it is unpleasant and tends to be self-defeating. Moderate dieting combined with regular exercise is much more effective and enjoyable. The choice is yours: life on the sofa, nibbling celery or the active, healthy-eating, healthful way.TitleEat more, Play moreWeight LessCauses of weight problemsIts commonly believed that adults weight problems are due to 28_ too much, but little scientific evidence 29_ this idea.Studies show that fat people eat less and are 30_ active than slim people.31_of eating enoughEnergy used for essential bodily functions, BMR, and 32_ activity should be balanced by food intake for weight to remain stableFood intake offers 33_ vitamin and mineral intake and prevents the old from chronic constipation.Ways of weight lossDieting alonea temporary measureTending to weaken the diets effects34_in some loss of muscle as well as fatExercising 35_ a recommended wayHaving good heart functionHelping to raise blood levels of HDLAttaining critical nutrients36_Doing little exercise has much to do with obesity.Severe dieting should be 37_.Moderate dieting as well as regular exercise is much more effective and enjoyable.五、从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 38 Its similar to the music you listen to, but its not exactly the same. Thats because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you dont even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called elevator(电梯) music because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name Muzak. About one-third of the people in America listen to Muzak everyday. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 39If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters dont want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 40Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. _41_ Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.42 They say its boring to hear the same songs all the time. But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A. Some people dont like Muzak.B. The music gives them extra energy.C. Music is playing in the background.D. Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E. Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F. They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G. Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.六、书面表达43书面表达假定你是李华，你的美国朋友Peter 想来中国旅行，他写信向
