To enjoy the most benefits, the researchers recommended eating whole-grain foods for breakfast as they are rich in fiber. __2__.

Food preparation __4__. As such, cooking methods such as steaming, baking, grilling, boiling or stir-frying are advised. __5__ Some people like to eat a large meal after a hard day's work. However, large meals late at night can cause indigestion that influences sleep. So it is a very good idea to have a low-calorie fiber drink just before leaving the office. It is also not a good idea to regularly have a late-night meal as this could overburden the digestive system. Remember, minor changes in our eating habits can lead to major changes in our health. A．Light nights B．Fewer night snacks C．Fish, in contrast, contains more heart-healthy fats D．Drinking bean milk supplies the body with plant protein E．Experts always suggest preparing food with as little oil as possible F．But most of us fail to obtain adequate nutrients (营养) due to our troubled lifestyles

2018届高考英语二轮复习阅读理解综合练十二4
阅读理解综合练(十二) A (2016·10浙江) Digital technology—email and smart phones especially—have vastly improved workers’ ability to be productive outside of a traditional office.Even so,most white-collar work still happens in an office.One reason is that,according to findings of a new survey(调查) of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix,most bosses are doubtful about remote working.Half of the workers say their boss doesn’t accept it,and only 35 percent say it’s tolerated. Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced(加深) by the same survey,which shows that 43 percent of workers say they’ve watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely,while 35 percent have done housework,and 28 percent have cooked dinner. It is true,however,that working at home makes people much more efficient(高效的),because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done.It’s much faster,for example,to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush. The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven’t come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker. More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value.Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who haven’t worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home.Under such circumstances,smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough flexibility to manage their time efficiently. 1.Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working? A.They fear losing control of their workers. B.They want to stick to their routine practice. C.The y have little trust in modern technology. D.They are used to face-to-face communication. 2.What seems to be most workers’ attitude toward remote working? A.Doubtful. B.Favorable. C.Reserved. D.Disapproving. 3.What does the author suggest smart firms do? A.Shorten their office hours. B.Give employees a pay raise.
