In fact, the research suggests people may eat less and burn more energy when in a warmer indoor environmentThe 13-year study, published in the journal Obesity, involved more than 100,000 adults across EnglandResearchers found reduced weight levels among people living in homes heated to above 23C（73F）, which involved about 15,000 of the households studiedDr Daly said: As national gas bills continue to rise faster than the rate of inflation, this research suggests the obesity could worsen where heating is turned down below comfortable levels or off for long periods to cut costsThis is not just about people who live in well-heated homes being in the financial position to afford more expensive low-calorie foods, exercise classes and sporting activities, and therefore finding it easier to maintain a low BMI levelThe study took age, sex, social class and other factors into accountThe comfortable temperature of 20C -23C is where we feel comfortable in our clothes and are neither hot nor coldAt temperatures above this, we use more energy and we eat less because our appetite is affected1.

Perhaps youve tracked how many kilometers youve run, how many hours youve slept or how many calories youve eaten in a day. If so, youve taken part in a movement called the “Quantified Self Movement.” Individuals gather information about their daily activities in this popular movement, also called self-tracking. This may sound difficult, but technology is making the process easier. Perhaps youve wanted to change a bad habit but couldnt. Self-tracking may be your answer. The idea is to take information about your everyday activities and analyze them to help form a healthier lifestyle. Recently, tools such as smartphones, journals and apps, along with newly published wearable things, are making self-tracking extremely easy. Today, one can use Fitbit, the Jawbone Up, Google Glass or a smart watch to record personal data including sleeping hours, stress levels, heart rate and mood. So why does a person self-track? Someone may be trying to lose weight or improve their sleep patterns. Another person feels tired after eating. Self-tracking could help him to know what foods make him sleepy and watch his diet. Monitoring daily activities isnt a new concept. In years past, athletes and their coaches kept notes detailing nutrition, training and sleep patterns in order to achieve an athletic goal. Similarly, doctors have also helped patients to record parts of their lifestyles and eating habits to help fight allergies, headaches and other health problems. However, it wasnt until 2007 that magazine editors Gary Wolf and Kim Kelly, who started tracking every move they made, coined the term “Quantified Self.” Wolf says that the new tools will change our sense of self with the purpose of making us more effective in the world. Although self-tracking has many advantages, Dennis Nash, president of Data Speaks Health Solutions, says self-tracking has its drawbacks. Once people start tracking their daily activities, it can become an addition people like to do often. Also, they might begin to worry too much about their health. While self-tracking doesnt guarantee that ones quality of life will improve, it can highlight the importance of eating well and exercising daily. After all, the Quantified Self Movements focus is motivating people to apply enough energy to make healthier choices.【小题1】People choose self-tracking because _.

But if were always whining and complaining all the time, are we really living effectively?71 Whether it be being stuck in traffic, being bothered by the weather, not enough mustard on your sandwich, or whatever it is, there are endless instances where you can find a reason to complain.But its not just outside circumstances that we complain about. 72 We complain about about ourselves too. We complain that we dont have enough time, we dont have enough money (this one is huge because its often “true”), that were not smart enough, cool enough, or just enough. 73 I never really thought about it much until I found this website about “living in a complain free world.”Imagine how much happier you would be if you simply stopped complaining? Much of what you complain about is outside of your control anyway. Whats the point of brooding about something you have no power to change? 74 Simply becoming conscious of how much you complain is the first step to stopping. When you recognize that youre complaining, stop and take notice of it. Ask yourself if you would rather complain, or be happy. 75 AWe complain about ourselves too.BNot very intelligent, if you ask me.CWhy cant we complain about things around us?DAre you ready to live a complaint free, happier life?EWhat youre complaining about may make you quite unhappy.FIf you dont believe me, count how many times you complain in one day.GIve experienced lots of unpleasantness for complaining about things I cant control.参考答案 7175 FAGBD。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family.
