20、 in weight gain and a higher likelihood of being overweight or obese.For years, research has linked skipping breakfast with increased BMI (body mass index), but few studies have been carried out into the effect of the other meals of the day. However, researchers at Osaka University, whose study asse
21、ssed breakfast, lunch, and diner habits, concluded that not eating diner is a “significant predictor of weight gain and overweight/obesity.”The study followed 17,573 male and 8,860 female students over the age of 18 enrolled at Osaka University over an average of three years. As part of their annual
22、 check-ups, the students were asked how often they ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Researchers also took into consideration the time of eating, whether participants meal habits changed over the course of the study, and lifestyle factors like sleep, smoking, and drinking.The number of students who
23、said they sometimes skipped dinner was small, but the researchers found that those who did so all the time or occasionally were more likely to be older, more overweight, a smoker or drinker, to sleep for a shorter period of time, skip other meals more frequently, and eat dinner later when they did e
24、at it.For both men and women, skipping lunch was more likely to coincide with all the same outcomes except having a higher BMI. Skipping dinner, the researchers found, was”significantly associated” with weight gain of 10% or more, and having a BMI over 25, which is classed as overweight or obese.Its
25、 worth pointing out that BMI has its limitations someone who is incredibly muscular and lean can be classed as obese, for example, but when assessing a large population its generally considered accurate enough as the outliers outweigh each other, “These results suggest that skipping dinner, which wa
26、s much less common than skipping breakfast, has a stronger association with weight gain and overweight/obesity than skipping breakfast,” the study said.The researchers suggested that the reason skipping dinner could lead to weight gain is that it makes people hungrier so they end up eating more over
27、 the course of the day. Another possible explanation, they said, is that dinner is typically a meal that lends itself to nutritious foods like lean proteins and vegetables, so skipping dinner may mean a lower quality diet.The researchers note that their study had limitations: It should be repeated t
28、o assess a wider population, and they also didnt take into account factors like exercise, stress, or depression.7What can be inferred about the research?AMany studies have associated skipping dinner with overweight.BDinner is a significant predictor of weight gain and obesity.CAnyone with a BMI over
29、 25 is obese.DFew students at Osaka University skipped dinner8What do the researchers mean in the last three paragraphs?AThe result is scientific and accurate.BSkipping dinner may lead to overeating.CDinner is more important than breakfast.DNutritious dinner means a lower quality diet.9What is the p

32、 fatigue (疲倦). There is no doubt that 2021 has been filled with additional challenges. _11_The data is clearly showing that our workforce shares feelings of burnout. A recent Gallup report indicated that 67% of us feel burned out either some or most of the time. At an organizational level, Hogan rep
33、orts that burned out employees are 18% less productive and 2.6 times more likely to be actively seeking a different job.Fatigue and burnout arise not when we fail to get sufficient rest but when we fail to appreciate the moments of purpose and joy in our lives.There are a few myths around burnout an
34、d compassion fatigue:Myth 1: Burnout is an individuals problem.Many people believe that burnout is about an individual who needs to “figure it out”. _12_ Team structure offers critical support and leaders should create environment where team burnout is addressed.Myth 2: _13_Surprisingly, the individ
35、uals most likely to experience burnout are committed employees and leaders who love their job and are highly engaged. These top performers are the people you are most likely to lose.Myth 3: People who experience burnout are just less resilient.Research shows a correlation between higher levels of re
36、silience (复原力) and lower levels of burnout. _14_ But resilience looks very different now from five years ago, and my guess is that it will continue to shift.If 2021 has taught us anything, it is that we cannot separate burnout from our emotions, whether they may be fear, anger, shame or guilt. _15_A
37、While fatigue is more sudden and results from carrying the pain and suffering of others, what we experience is similar.BBurnout results from lack of responsibility.CBurnout hurts individuals enthusiasm and passion.DAt this point, burnout and compassion fatigue has expanded into many aspects of our l
38、ives.EBut burnout occurs at different levels and is the result from challenges to individuals, teams and organizations.FAt one point, people believed resilience was established by “sucking it up”, or “just staying positive”.GAnd the path forward requires us to deepen the relationship with feelings o
39、f joy, passion, pride and fulfillment.三、完形填空My son Ethan needed 12 weeks of physical therapy in a Baltimore hospital, because be was born with a severe condition that _16_ his left leg shorter than the right.
