19、ecoming a professional perfumer is not easy,because it is a long and heavy training. It is only the major international perfume brands that employ professional perfumers.

27、d to eat less. The now-trendy diet of intuitive eating is,in a sense,an anti-diet:followers are encouraged to base what they eat on how they feel, not on prescribed limits or calorie counts.The concept was first proposed in the mid-90s by registered dietitians Elyse Resch and Evelyn Tribole,who wrot
28、e Intuitive Eating. The first step is to reject the idea that you need to be on a diet to be healthy. Youre encouraged to also give yourself 44 permission M to eat all foods, to reject the idea of good and bad foods and to accept your natural body shape. Finally,you help make your body healthier by
29、adding exercise, finding better ways than food to relieve your emotions and slowly shifting to more nutritious food choices.One of the biggest misunderstandings around intuitive eating is that nutrition goes out the window. Curiously,researches shows that in a traditional diet,caloric restriction is
30、 usually followed by a binge (放纵),where the bodys primary drive to make sure it gets enough calories is more important than any desires for nutrition or moderation (自我节制),which leads to disordered eating patterns. However, because intuitive eating allows all foods on the table, practitioners can mak
31、e small,slow changes that ultimately are more long-lasting-toward eating more nutritionally.There isnt strong research to back up claims that intuitive eating helps with losing weight or eating more-nutritious food. However; in Kellers experience, a registered dietitian in Calgary, intuitive eating
32、can help with overall weight maintenance. In addition, intuitive eaters do gain a healthier attitude toward food,compared to traditional dieters. Keller says, “ When people decide to diet, what they actually want is to feel comfortable and confident and healthy in their own body. People have to be r
33、eady to overcome their constant desire to lose weight and control their body, and to realize that changing how they look on the outside isnt going to change those things on the inside.”What do we know about intuitive eating?A.It helps followers to lose weight by eating less.B. It prohibits followers
34、 from eating what they like.C. It encourages eaters to be on a diet to be healthy.D. It advises eaters to be healthier by exercising more.28. What does the underlined phrase “ goes out the window mean in the third paragraph ?A.Exports.B.Disappears.C. Destroys.D.Distributes.29. What is the Kellers at
35、titude to intuitive eating?A.Favorable.B.Intolerant.C.Doubtful.D.Unclear.30. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Does intuitive eating beat a conventional diet?B.How does intuitive eating work?C.Will intuitive eating help lose more weight?D.Should we bother to lose weight?DOne

As major weather patterns cha
40、nge because of climate change, many parts of the world-particularly places nearer to the polesjike Alaska or Siberia, will get more rain-potentially adding dozens more rainbow-rich days by the end of the century.The changes follow broader patterns of climate change; in fact, the shifts highlight som
41、e of the biggest risks and dangers. The increases in the Arctic/or example,are likely to play out because water that used to fall from the sky as snow will more often drop down as rain in a hotter future. And todays rainbow-rich Amazon is predicted to suffer more frequently drought both because the
