单选题{{B}}Text 3{{/B}} Do you love holidays, but hate the increase in weight that follows? You are not alone. Holidays are times for eating and celebrating, especially with the cultural foods of our heritage. With proper planning, though, it is possible to maintain normal weight during the holidays. The idea is to enjoy the holidays and think in terms of moderation. Whether it is celebrating at the office party or sitting down at the traditional family dinner, approach eating as a time for tasting or sampling a variety of foods. Here are some tips to carry you through the round of celebrations and your social calendar without feeling guilty. Set realistic goal. Unless you have special dietary needs there are no forbidden foods. Don't deny yourself the foods you enjoy, but be sensible. Don't skip meals. Before you leave home, have a small, low-fat meal or snack. This can help you to avoid overindulging. Control portions. Use a small plate and avoid the large plate that may encourage you to "load up." You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist. Once you have had enough, move away from the buffet. Doing so will make it less tempting to be eating constantly as your appetite is stimulated by the sight of the food. Eat slowly and savor. Look upon eating as a time for tasting or sampling different kinds of foods. Savor the flavours. Eating at a slow pace. Fill up beforehand with clear soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Put raw vegetables and fruit in a yogurt (乳酸) dressing rather than cream and cheese sauces. Drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you feel full. If you have a sweet tooth, try mints, hard candies, and fruits. These don't have the fat content of creamy desserts and chocolate. Maintain physical activity. Don't let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute brisk walk after a meal can help burn off excess calories. Avoid high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy may have a generous amount of fat. Choose lean meats. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.

单选题It can be inferred from this passage that automobiles _________.

单选题Americans are getting ready for the biggest soccer event in the world. For the first time the world cup soccer competition will be held in the United States. While millions play the game around the world, soccer or football has only recently become popular here. It is only in the last 30 years that large numbers of young Americans became interested in soccer. Now it is the fastest growing sport in the country. A recent study found that almost 8 million young boys and girls play soccer in the United States. The study has also found that soccer is beginning to replace more traditional games like American football as the most popular sport among students. And so, when the world cup begins next week, more than one million Americans are expected to go and see the teams play. Organizers say this year's world cup will be the biggest ever. All the seats at most of the 52 games have already been sold. Soccer has been played in the United States for a little more than one hundred years. But how did the sport come to this country? And how long has it existed in other parts of the world? No one knows exactly where the idea for soccer came from, or when people began playing the game. Some scientists say there is evidence that ball games using the feet were played thousands of years ago. There is evidence that ancient Greeks and Romans and native American Indians all played games similar to soccer. Most experts agree that Britain is the birthplace of modern soccer. They also agree that the British spread the game around the world. Unlike the game today, which uses balls of man-made material or leather, early soccer balls were often made of animal stomachs. The rules of early soccer games also differed from those we have today.
