完形填空

    It happened one spring morning. I woke up and went downstairs. My mum asked me if I wanted some orange juice.

    “Yes, thanks,” I replied, but my voice had changed! It sounded very deep. I was quite1 and so was the dog! But my mum just smiled and said, “Oh, that's just your voice breaking.”

    Breaking? That did not sound good! So at school that day, I asked my biology teacher what was happening.

    “Don't worry. It's2 common!” she said. “Sound is made by the mouth as the air is 3 out through the voice box, which is in the neck. As you grow older, the voice box grows larger and thicker. When you are a teenager, there can be a 4.

    “But my sister is older than me, and her voice is still the same,” I said, a little 5.

    “The change is bigger in boys, so you notice it more. Girls' voices only change a little, so it is hard to tell the6.

Matt and his wife lived in the country. One day a fair_came to the nearby town.

"Let's go to the fair, Matt." his wife said. "We didn't go anywhere for a long time."

Matt thought about this for a while. He knew he would have to spend money at the fair. At last he said, "All right, but I'm not going to spend much money."

They went to the fair and looked at all the things. There were many things Matt's wife wanted to buy, but he would not let her spend any money.

Then, they saw a small airplane.

"Fun flights!" the notice said." $10 for 10 minutes."

Matt had never been in an airplane and he wanted to go on a fun flight. However, he didn't want to pay for his wife. "I've only got $10," he told the pilot. "Can my wife come with me for free?" The pilot wasn't selling many tickets, so he said, "I'll make a bargain (协议) with you. If your wife doesn't scream (尖叫) or shout, she can have a free flight." Matt agreed, and got into the small airplane with his wife.

The pilot took off and made his airplane do all kinds of things. At one moment it was flying upside down. When the plane landed, the pilot said, "OK, your wife didn't make a sound. She can have her ride free."

"Thank you," Matt said. "It wasn't easy for her, you know, especially when she fell out."

We all know that eating junk food can make us Et. However, a new study suggests that it can do more than that-it can also make us lazy.

In the study, researchers divided 32 rats into two groups. In the first experiment, the first group was fed a diet of healthy food such as com and fish, while the second was given a diet rich in sugar and fat, namely "junk food".

Within three months, the rats in the second group were already much fatter than those on the healthy diet. And when researchers trained the rats to do simple tasks, they found even more differences between the two groups other than weight.

During the task - pushing a lever to receive a prize of sugar - water  the rats on the junk food diet were found to be less willing to move, and they took longer breaks between each push than the fit rats did.

"It is as if the rat is thinking 'This is too much work," said the leader of the study.

According to researchers, these differences suggest that junk food changed the chemistry in the rats' brains.

The experiments didn't end there. After six months, researchers began the second experiment. The rats' diets were changed, and the overweight rats were given a healthy diet for nine days. However, this didn't help reduce their weight or improve their ability to perform tasks. It means the effects of their junk food diet lasted for long. "There's no quick way to reduce the harm," researchers said.

For a long time, we've believed that people become fat because they are lazy. But this study has shown that the opposite is true as well. Being lazy and getting fat can go hand in hand.

So, if you always feel tired, and not willing to get up from your chair, it could be that you've been studying too hard. But you should also pay attention to your diet.
