The structures offer the homeless some safety and protection from bad weather. Each little house also has wheels on the bottom so it can go wherever its owner goes.‎ ‎    Greg Kloehn has given away at least 20 tiny houses. Several are on the roadside near an active railroad. On a recent day, Mr. Kloehn stops at one to visit Oscar Young. The two men hug. Inside his little shelter Mr. Young gets relief from cold nights on the streets. Mr. Kloehn also visits Sweet-Pea, another friend who also lives in one of the little homes the artist built. She says it keeps her safe and protects her belongings.‎ ‎    In the mornings, Mr. Kloehn searches the streets for building materials. He gathers what he can and takes it to his studio. There, he puts the houses together. Empty coffee bags become roof material. A washing machine door and refrigerator part become windows. Nails, screws and the sticky glue hold all the pieces together. The artist also attaches a small electrical device to the house. The device is powered by the sun.‎ ‎    Some of the people living on the streets once had normal houses of their own. But some of the people say they have learned to live with less and they are thankful to that man.‎ ‎    Mr. Kloehn says his work is not a social project. He says he is just someone using his skills to help his homeless neighbors.‎ ‎25.

Using a computer or a pen and paper to record information, however, can be a burden and cause some people to give up.‎ ‎    Duke‎ ‎University researchers said using text messages to track eating and exercise habits can save time, and increase the chances that people will stick with their weight-loss rules.‎ ‎    The study included 26 obese/fat women with an average age of 38. The women used daily texting as part of their weight-loss program. The text messages focused on tracking personalized goals, such as avoiding sugary drinks or walking 10,000 steps a day. Messages also provided brief feedback (反馈) and tips.‎ ‎    Every morning, the women received a text from an automated system that said, “Please text yesterday's personal information of steps you walked and how many sugary drinks you had.” Based on the women's responses to the text message, the system sent another text with personalized feedback and tips.‎ ‎    After six months, the women who used daily texting lost an average of nearly 3 pounds, while another group of women who used traditional methods to keep food and exercise diaries gained an average of 2.5 pounds, according to the study, which was published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research.‎ ‎    “Text messaging has become popular and may be an effective method to simplify tracking of diet and exercise behavior,” Dori Steinberg, who was responsible for this research, said.‎ ‎    Steinberg said,“Text messaging offers several advantages compared to other self-monitoring methods. Unlike web-based diet and exercise diaries, data in a text message can be entered quickly on nearly all cell phone platforms so it is very convenient to receive feedback. Besides, because of the limited number of words used in text messages, it saves time.”‎ ‎28. Which is NOT true about text messaging according to Steinberg?‎ A. It saves time. B. It saves money.‎ C. It can be entered quickly.  D. It is easy to receive feedback.‎ ‎29. What's the best title for the text?‎ A. Texting helps keep healthy.  B. Texting saves time and money.‎ C. Texting provides brief feedback and tips. D. Texting can help you lose weight.‎ ‎30. What's Dori Steinberg's attitude towards text messaging?‎ A. Unknown. B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Unconcerned.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） ‎ 根据短文内容，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。请考生将此题答案填涂在答题卡71---75题号上。‎ Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying hunger.  31   Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? But when done a lot — especially without realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.     Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. 32 One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is that it's caused by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they're stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the ‎ celebration of a holiday feast. Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.   33     Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done.  34  It's not easy to “unlearn” patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what's going on.     We’re all emotional eaters to a degree. But for some people emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain or other problems. The trouble with emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain.   35  That’s why it helps to know the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger.     Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which type of hunger is driving it. A. Believe it or not, we’ve all been there. B. If a crying boy gets some cookies, he may link cookies with comfort. C. One study found that people who eat food like pizza become happy afterwards. D. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like. E. Understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. F. Boys seem to prefer hot, homemade comfort meals, while girls go for chocolate and ice cream. G. More often, though, it’s the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort in food.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Maggie was assigned to a public school in the middle of the year, and the headmaster asked her to teach Class 4-B right away.
