When looking for diet plans to gain muscle there are some great tips that can help you to ensure that you are eating to help you build the muscle that you want. Your diet is just as important as exercise when you attach importance to your diet, it can help you to reach your goal much faster.
You will find that you will eat lean meat almost daily. If you eat meat each day this can help you to keep your figure. The trick with beef is to find lean cuts and this is something that can provide you with protein. Fish and turkey will also be included in the diet. Chicken has some rules and you should always eat skinless and avoid frying.
Fiber is something that is not talked much about when looking for a muscle building diet, but this is basis part of the muscle building diet. Fiber has many benefits and will aid in digestion and help you to feel full. Oatmeal (燕麦片) is a great source of fiber, but you should avoid the premade oatmeal. Fruit and vegetables contain a lot of fiber and this can also aid in weight loss if this is a problem you are working on.
If you want to complete your workout more effectively, you need to make sure that you are drinking adequate amount of water each day. Your body is made up of water and you need to replenish (补充) this water source each day in order to be in the best shape. If you are completing a very intense workout, you will need to make sure that you are drinking even more water to stay hydrated(含水的).
When protein(乳清蛋白质) is a great way for busy individuals to get the protein they need on the go. You will use soy and tofu for sources of protein if you do not eat meat and this can be a wonderful alternative.
There are diet plans to gain muscle for every category. You can make minor adjustments to your diet that can have some great benefits.
21. What’s the best title of the passage?

D. Paying attention to your diet
22. When you eat chicken, you should always_______.

People who realize and master the art of small talk can use it to improve relationships. Small talk can lead to “big” talk — more important discussions. Using small talk, you can achieve big results. But many people do have fears that hold them back from making small talk.
For one thing, those who refuse to make small talk usually fear the unknown. When I was little, my mom said,“ Don't talk to strangers!” For some people, that childhood fear of strangers continues into adulthood. Suppose you are at a business networking event and have checked out who is there and found potential ( 潜在的)
conversation partners. You're ready to make your move, but there are butterflies in your stomach. You are too frightened to introduce yourself to total strangers.
Consider a different situation for the next networking event you attend. To overcome your nervousness, you can think of yourself as an event's host and not its guest. As a host, you would introduce yourself to people you don't know and introduce them to others. You can play the role of the host even though you are not the actual host. Get in the habit of holding out your hand first and saying, “Hi, my name is ...”
Another reason why people refuse to open their mouth is the fear of rejection. Anytime you open your mouth and speak, you risk rejection. If you never talk to people, you won't be rejected. But if you never talk to people, you will also be very lonely. The best way I've found to overcome the fear of rejection is to focus on how I feel when I am accepted.
So ask yourself: what do I have to lose? Nothing! What do I have to gain? Possibly everything! Think back to when you first met your best friend or any important person in your life. How did it all start? You probably started with
small talk.
24. In Paragraph 1, the author wants to tell us that small talk is _____.
A. worth doing
B. hard to make
C. often ignored
D. very interesting
25. The underlined part “there are butterflies in your stomach” probably means you are _____.
A. busy

C. confident
D. excited
26. When you are at a business networking event, you are advised to _____.
A. talk with the host
B. behave yourself
C. try to be helpful
D. play an active role
27. What's the purpose of the passage?
A. To advise.
B. To discuss.
C. To describe.
D. To introduce.
C
About us
Started by private citizens who believe that everyone should have the right to take showers, Lava Mae seeks to reach those who lack these necessities.
We turn retired public transportation buses into bathrooms because we believe that for the thousands of men, women and children living on our streets, a shower can be the first step towards change.
Our partners
Each day we partner different local non-profit organizations providing services to the homeless.
●The local government tries their best to deliver our services. For example, get buses and seek access to water.
●The private sector has provided us with goods and services, in addition to other support and funding that
make our service possible.
Our mission
To deliver dignity(尊严)and unlock opportunity for the homeless—one mobile shower at a time. Fundamental to this mission are three beliefs: First, everyone has the right to be clean. Second, those experiencing homelessness can’t access jobs and housing or maintain health and happiness if they can’t get clean. Third, with hygiene(卫生)comes dignity; with dignity, opportunity.
Our schedule
Wednesdays: 9:30am~12pm;YW AM in the Tenderloin; 344 Ellis St. between Taylor and Jones.
Thursdays: 9:30 am~3:30pm; API Wellness in the Tenderloin;730 Polk St. near Ellis St.
Fridays: 9:30 am~2:30 pm; YW AM in the Tenderloin; 344 Ellis St. between Taylor and Jones.
Saturdays: 7:00 am~1:00 pm; Mission Neighborhood Resource Center; 16th St. and Capp St.
28.Mobile showers for the homeless are designed to_____.

Square dancing is a form of entertainment and physical exercise, which is a good thing. However, a group of senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park were recently faced with noise complaints from nearby residents. The local court even served a summons (传票) related to a certain Ms. Wang.
The news soon caused heated discussion across China, with many believing the incident to involve a cultural conflict between the East and West, while others view it as a form of discrimination against Chinese in the United States.
The United States is a diverse society, and in many cases, Chinese dancers are tolerated and even appreciated. Meanwhile, the United States is a society based on the rule of law, and due to cultural differences, local regulations seem to be very different from those in China. As a result, some old Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park found themselves caught in an embarrassing situation. Loc als and immigrants from other nations view such noise as a violation of their right to enjoy tranquility. Calling the police is regarded as the most efficient way to solve such a problem.
Before, these ladies probably did not understand local customs and rules. However, since the incident took place, they should perhaps know a little better next time and keep the noise to a minimum. People from different nations are often supposed to reach compromises, respecting and tolerating each other.
Whatever your choice of entertainment, it is important not to affect other people’s lives. Square dancing is only one of many activities during which people should mind their behavior.
As for U.S. police practice, there might still be some room for improvement. Some were said to be rather rude, leading to the so-called “racial discrimination,” which is a sensitive topic in U.S. society.
If the involved parties could be more tolerant, and solve such problems without involving the court, perhaps immigrants would mix more.
32. The writer mentions the incident in Paragraph 1 to __________.
A. show his opinion
B. make complaints
C. bring up the topic
D. criticize the local police
33. The underlined word “tranquility” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ________.
A. entertainment
B. quietness
C. freedom
D. quality
34. What will the senior Chinese ladies most probably do after the incident?
A. Go back to China.
B. Fight for their right.
C. Ask America to change its law.
D. Keep the noise lower.
35. What’s the writer’s attitude towards senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park?
A. He thinks all parties involved should be more tolerant.
B. He strongly supports the action of the local police.
C. He considers it a shame for senior Chinese ladies to do so.
D. He suggests such kind of problem should be solved in the court.

Most people actually do not know how to do basic first aid on mild burns. It is normally taken for granted since most people think that soaking (浸泡) the burn with water is the way to go. 36
Once the burn appears, you will surely feel much pain on the actual burned skin. Technically, this is the time to stay calm. 37 Finding a source of running water is recommended. However, if there is none, any source will do. If there is running water, simply place the burned area under it and allow it to soak the water for about 5 to 10 minutes. 38 If you have access to ice or a cold cloth, you can use that as well. You can place the ice or cold cloth on the affected area and leave it there about 15 to 30 minutes. The ice will numb the pain and will also stop more injury on the skin.
After soaking in water or cooling the area with ice, remove from the water source and allow the moisture to dry naturally. You may also consider patting it down dry with a towel or napkin; however, this could damage the burnt skin even more. 39
As soon as the area dries up completely, get a bandage or a strip of cloth. 40 This will protect that area from infection caused by outside dirt and dust getting into the open burn.
A. It is best to dry it naturally instead.
B. Calling a doctor may as well help in most burn cases.
C. Wrap it around the burn to cover the open area of skin.
D. The truth is that soaking is the last thing to do to deal with mild burn.
E. The first thing you will need to do will be to find a clean water source.
F. This will relieve some of the pain, cool down the skin, and stop additional burning.
G. The thing is that treating a mild burn goes deeper than just soaking the affected part in water.

Should our parents accompany us in studying at school?
In recent years, many parents choose to accompany their children in studying, which has aroused a wide concern.
These parents are willing to leave their hometowns, even quit their jobs to follow their children into the campus. Most of them, who consider it necessary to offer a better living condition to the kids, rent an apartment nearby so as to take good care of their children. Meanwhile, it can allow them to keep track of the kids' academic performance.
Nevertheless, what they've ignored is that it will get their kids into the habit of being dependent, which will cause them not to develop the ability of selfcontrol in the future.
Trust leads to independence. So it seems to me that parents should leave room for children's growth and study, in order to ensure their overall development.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4. Never contest for space with a kettlebell. Do not try to save a rep that has gone wrong. Guide the kettlebell to fall harmlessly, and move out of the way if necessary. And remember, quick feet are happy feet. 5. Practice all safety measures at all times. Respect every kettlebell, even the lightest one. Always use perfect form picking up and setting down a kettlebell. The set is not over until the bell is safely parked.

Section B Directions：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (B) With the coming of big data age, data science is supposed to be starved for, of which the adaption can point a profound change in corporate competitiveness. Companies, both born-in the digital era and traditional world are showing off their skills in data science. Therefore, it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type. Mr Carlos Guestrin, machine learning professor from University of Washington argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years, making data scientists—people trained to analyze large bodies of information — key workers in this emerging “cognitive” technology economy. There are already critical applicat ions that depend on machine learning, a subfield of data science, led by recommendation programs, fraud detection system, forecasting tools and applications for predicting customer behavior. Many companies that are born digital—particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle—are all-in when it comes to data science. Pinterest, for instance, maintains more than 100 machine learning models that could be applied to different classes of problems, and it constantly fields request from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem. The most important factor weighing on many traditional companies will be the high cost of launching a serious machine-learning operation. Netflix is estimated to spend ＄150m a year on a single application and the total bills is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account. Another problem for many non-technology companies is talent.Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle, only about 1000 have deep learning skills, compared to 100,000 who can apply other machine learning techniques, says Mr Goldbloom. He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expend their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field. A third barrier to adapting to the coming era of “smart” applications, however, is likely to be

2020届上海市复兴中学高三下学期三月月考英语试题(解析版)
2020届上海市复兴中学高三下学期三月月考 英语试题 四、词汇（10%） It is getting hard to go anywhere without stepping on a piece of Lego-related hype (大肆宣传). “The Lego Movie” is number two at the American box office, after three weeks at number one. Model kits ___1___ to the film are piled high in the shops. They will add to the already gigantea of Lego bits: 86 for every person on the planet. The toymaker has enjoyed ten years of spectacular growth, almost quadrupling (四倍) its ___2___. This is remarkable for many reasons. Lego’s ho me town, Billund in rural Denmark, is so small that the company had to provide it with a hotel-an elegant one, unsurprisingly. The toy business is one of the world’s trickiest: perennially faddish (反复出现地一时流行的事物) (remember Beanie Babies?) and, at the moment, energized by technological innovation. Children are growing up ever faster, and abandoning the ___3___ world for the virtual. To cap it all, the company almost collapsed in 2003-04, having drifted for years, ___4___ into too many areas, producing too many products. Lego’s decade of success began when it appointed Jorgen Vig Knudstorp as chief executive. This was a risky move: Mr. Knudstorp was a mere 35 years old and had cut his teeth as a management consultant with McKinsey rather than running a business. But it proved to be inspired. Mr. Knudstorp decided that the company must go “back to the ___5___”: focusing on its core products, forgetting about brand-stretching, and even selling its theme parks. He also brought in stricter management controls, for example reducing the number of different pieces that the company produced from 12,900 to 7,000. Under Mr. Knudstorp Lego has struck a successful balance between ___6___ and tradition. The company has to ___7___ new ideas to keep its sales growing: customers need a reason to expand their stock of bricks, and to buy them from Lego rather than cheaper rivals. But at the same time, it must resist the sort of undisciplined innovation that almost ruined it. Lego produces a stream of kits with ___8___ designs, such as forts and spaceships, to provide children with templates (模板). But it also insists that the pieces can be added to the child’s collection of bricks, and reused to make all sorts of other things. Lego has got better at managing its relationships. “The Lego Movie” demonstrates how it can focus on the brick while ___9___ into the virtual world: Warner Bros. made the film while Lego provided the models. During its years
