30、ch area as they wish.

35、offers kids opportunities for becoming elvesBThe highest beef prices in almost three decades have arrived just before the start of the hot season, causing a great shock to both consumers and restaurant owners- and relief isn't likely anytime soon. A decreasing number of cattle and growing export

36、 demand from countries such as China and Japan have caused the average price of fresh beef to climb to $5.28 a pound in February, up almost a quarter from January and the highest price since 1987.Everything that's produced is being consumed, said Kevin Good, an analyst at CattleFax, a Colorado-b

37、ased information group. Prices will likely stay high for a couple of years as cattle producers start to rebuild their cattle among big questions about whether the Southwest and parts of the Midwest will see enough rain to water the grass."I quit buying steaks a while ago when the price went up,

38、" said 59-year-old Len Markham, who works at Texas Tech. She says she limits red meat purchases to hamburger, choosing chicken, pork and fish instead.Restaurant owners, too, must deal with the high prices. Mark Hutchens, owner of the 50 Yard Line Steakhouse in Lubbock, raised his menu prices fo

39、r beef items by about 5 percent in November. Since then, the owner of the small eating house has tried to make cuts elsewhere to avoid passing it on to customers. "It really puts more pressure on the small guys," he said of non-chain restaurants. "I just think you have to stay competi

40、tive and keep your costs low."“White-tablecloth restaurants have adjusted the size of their steaks, making them thinner”, says Jim Robb, director of the Colorado-based Livestock Marketing Information Center. “And fast-food restaurants are cutting costs by reducing the number of menu items and a

41、re offering other meat options, including turkey burgers, Robb said. Chain restaurants also try to buy beef as much as they can, which essentially gives them a discount”, Iowa State University assistant economics professor Lee Schulz said.The high prices are welcome news for at least one group: ranc

42、hers(大农场经营者), especially those in Texas who for years have struggled amid drought（干旱） and high feed prices. But even as ranchers breathe a sigh of relief, some worry lasting high prices will cause consumers to permanently change their buying habits - switching to chicken or pork. Pete Bonds, a 62-ye

43、ar-old Texas rancher and president of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association, said that's a big concern. “But such fears may be unfounded, Robb said. “Three years ago, economists thought consumers would start finding substitutions for beef as the drought spread. We're surprise

44、d we haven't seen more of that," he said.South Dakota rancher Chuck O'Connor thinks that consumers wont abandon beef for good. "I'm sure some are maybe going to cut back some, but to say that people aren't going to buy it anymore, I don't think that's going to happe

45、n," he said, adding, "I hope not."58. The price of beef has increased because_. A. there is a growing demand of fresh beef among Americans B. cattle producers have succeeded in raising a new type of cattle C. ranchers have found ways to deal with high feed prices D. there is a lack of

46、 rain and the export of beef is increasing59. Which method is NOT used by restaurant owners to deal with the high beef prices? A. They have made the steaks smaller than before B. They have increased the prices of beef-related dishes C. They have made hamburgers with many other kinds of meat D. They

47、have sought discount by purchasing large amounts of beef60. Jim Robb gives an example in the sixth paragraph in order to_. A. tell people that it is a tough job to look for substitutions for beef B. explain that customers wont change their buying habits completely C. show his fear that chicken or po

48、rk may be an alternative to beef D. indicate that ranchers may be least affected by the high beef pricesCYour New Years plan to move more is one of the toughest to stick to, and a group of scientists working with obese(过度肥胖的)mice think theyre starting to understand whyRather than our sedentary(久坐的)l

49、ives causing weight gain, says Alexxai Kraviz, the National Institutes of Health neuroscientist who led the study, changes in brain chemistry after we start gaining weight affect our capacity to move.“Obese mice can move just fine,” says Kravitz, who published the work with his team in Cell Metaboli

50、sm “They just dont.”What Kravitzs team found is that the activity of a particular dopamine(多巴胺)receptor linked to movement goes down as mice gain weight on a high-fat diet. So the nice slow down and they move less. And when the researchers restored the activity of that dopamine receptorDR2the mice s

51、tarted moving more, even though they were still obese. The team also saw that lean mice missing the DR2 receptor acted like obese mice. This is the target, says Kravitzrestoring that dopamine receptor function. “Maybe 20 or 30 years down the road, we could do that in people,” he says.And there is on

52、e more thing: The scientists fed normal mice and the mice lacking DR2 the same high-fat diet. Both sets of mice gained weight at the same rate.Kravitz says this is important because mice lacking DR2 move less from the get-go, whereas a normal mouse takes a little time to start seeing that dopamine r

53、eceptor-related loss of exercise. The ability to exercise seems to be disconnected from weight gain, he says.“Exercise is a healthy thing to do, but its impact on weight loss has been exaggerated,” he says. “We have to be realistic about the size of the effect of exercise on weight, as opposed to he

54、alth benefits.”Still, before you abandon your New Years exercise plan, keep in mind that this study was done using a high-fat diet, and not the normal calorie restriction that people maintain when they diet.Thats a big drawback to the work, says Vicki Vieira-Potter, a University of Missouri physiolo

55、gist not involved in the study“They feed the mice with high-fat diet, it damages the receptor, and that decreases activity. Those who plan to lost weight should remember high-fat diet is a nice way to cause obesity in the lab, but its not the same as the normal situation of obesity,” she sys.Sine also says that a lot of the weight gain in the mice came after they stopped moving around, which indicates that the loss of movement did impact
