Though many people hate it, but cigarette smoking remains a common habit. About 20 percent of adult men in the USA smoke cigarettes regular. In spite of this, a number of individuals who have given up smoking is increased.
There are many factors that determines a person’s smoking habit, included income, education, and occupation. People who live in city smoke more than those who live on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. In the other hand, if a well-educated man with a high income does smoke, who tends to smoke more cigarettes per day.

In order to change the way Americans think about their trash footprint, Rob Greenfield is going to live like the average American for one month. He’ll eat, shop, and consume just like the average American who______4.5 pounds of trash per day. He has to______every piece of trash he creates. That’s nearly 140 pounds______the end of the month(almost his body weight)! Every coffee cup, plastic bag, pizza box, every single piece of trash be creates will be on his______, everywhere he goes.
The idea behind Bob’s “TrashMe” project is to show people the______effects of trash. Most people______think about how much waste they are producing every month. They just______their garbage bags, put them in the bin and______someone to pick them up. But what if they came face to face with a walking, talking______of overconsumption? That might get them thinking about the world’s______trash problem and maybe even get them to______the amount of trash they generate.
To make himself______to a wider audience, Greenfield has______a nonprofit film studio LivingOne to create a six-episode TrashMe web-series. He promised to deliver “a visual of______that Americans will never forget.”
Rob’s______adventure began on September 19th, and will end on October 19th. Three days in, he has already put on about 8 pounds, just a little bit______the trash that the average American produces in that time. But 30 days later, he will have put on over 130 pounds of trash. If you’re wondering______on Earth he’s going to carry all that garbage around, you should know that he will be wearing a custom-made trash suit to______around 135 pounds of trash. Still, that’s______his own body weight, so it’s not going to be______to move around.

We know that sometimes studying a new language can be hard work but it can be fun too--and if we can make our learning experience fun, then we will learn better. So here are some more of our top tips for making studying fun.
Firstly,1.--make sure your chair is suitable and it’s at the right height for the desk. Make sure you have good ventilation(空气流通) and light and the space you’re in isn’t too hot--you don’t want to fall asleep! And put away anything that might distract you, like your smartphone.
Rather than just staring at books and being passive,2.. Why not record yourself and listen back to yourself speaking or reading out information. Or you could turn facts into songs and sing them out loud--this is sure to make information stick in your head!
3.--flashcards are very useful because they provide visual clues that help you remember things. You could also stick words, grammar rules and other bits of information on notes around your study space or other places around your house--so for example, you can read them when brushing your teeth!
Don’t feel daunted by the amount of studying you have to do.4.. Study in small bursts and vary the topics you study so you don’t get bored and you stop retaining information. If you can, choose a time of day that best suits your natural preference. Some people work best at night while others work best early in the morning.
Finally, don’t overdo it--know your limits--if you study too hard it won’t be fun and you won’t absorb information.5.--and give yourself a small reward when you do.
A. try to become an active learner
B. So care your mental and physical health
C. get comfortable
D. So take regular breaks
E. Also be creative
F. And don’t try to study continuously all day to fit it all in
G. But you can focus on some entertainments
Why Do Dogs Watch--and React to--TV?
Domestic dogs can perceive images on television similarly to the way we do, and they are intelligent enough to recognize onscreen images of animals as they would in real life-even animals they’ve never seen before-and to recognize TV dog sounds, like barking.
A 2013 study published in the journal Animal Cognition showed that dogs could identify images of other dogs among pictures of humans and other animals, using their visual sense alone.
However, there are some differences between ourselves and man's best friend-for one, dogs' eyes register images more quickly than do ours. So older television sets, which show fewer frames(帧数) per second than modern televisions, would appear to a dog to be flickering(忽隐忽现的) like a "1920s movie," said Nicholas Dodman, a veterinary behaviorist(动物行为学家) at Tufts University, in Massachusetts.
Dogs also have dichromatic vision, which means they see a range of two primary colors, yellow and blue. Human vision is trichromatic, so we see the full range of colors, according to Binghamton University's Ask a Scientist web page.
DogTV, an HDTV cable channel designed for dogs, interests canines(犬) because HDTV has a much higher number of frames per second and is specially colored to accommodate dogs' dichromatic vision, said Dodman, who is the channel's chief scientist.
DogTV has modes for relaxation, which shows images like dogs recreate themselves in a grassy field; stimulation, which depicts scenes like dogs surfing in southern California; and exposure which shows things like a dog reacting to a ringing doorbell and obeying commands to adapt to such situations at home.
1.What is the finding of dogs from the journal Animal Cognition?
A. Onscreen images of animals can be recognized easily by dogs
B. TV dog sounds source has been found
C. Images of other dogs among pictures of humans and other animals could be identified easily
D. Dogs could only distinguish two colors
2.How many kinds of TV modes for dogs are mentioned in the passage?
A. One B. Two
C. Three D. Five
3.What does the underlined word “dichromatic” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Obvious B. Advanced
C. Multi-colored D. Two-colored
