23、r Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.Pasta is no longer off the menu, after a new review of studies suggested that the carbohydrate can form part of a healthy diet, and even

24、help people lose weight. For years, nutritionists have recommended that pasta be kept to a 26 , to cut calories, prevent fat build-up and stop blood sugar 27 up.The low-carbohydrate food movement gave birth to such diets as the Atkins, Paleo and Keto, which advised swapping foods like bread, pasta a

25、nd potatoes for vegetables, fish and meat. More recently the trend of swapping spaghetti for vegetables has been 28 by clean-eating experts.But now a 29 review and analysis of 30 studies by Canadian researchers found that not only does pasta not cause weight gain, but three meals a week can help peo

26、ple drop more than half a kilogram over four months. The reviewers found that pasta had been unfairlydemonized (妖魔化) because it had been 30in with other, more ft- promoting carbohydrates.“ The study found that pasta didn t 3toweight gain or increase in body fat, ” saidlead author Dr John Sievenpiper

27、.“ In32the evidence, we can now say with some confidence that pasta does not have an 33effect on body weigh outcomes when it is consumed as part of a healthy dietary pattern.” Infact, analysis actually showed a small weigh loss 34toconcerns. perhaps pasta can be part of a healthy dietThose involved

28、in the 35trials on average ate 3.3 servings of pasta a week instead of other carbohydrates, one serving equaling around half a cup.

30、ived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The Best Retailers Combine Bricks and ClicksA) Retail profits are falling sharply. Stores are closing. Malls are emptying. The depressin

31、g stories just keep coming. Reading the earnings announcements of large retail stores like Macys, Nordstrom, and Target is about as uplifting as a tour of an intensive care unit. The interact is apparently taking down yet another industry. Brick and mortar stores (实体店) seem to be going the way of th

32、e yellow pages. Sure enough, the Census Bureau just released data showing that online retail sales surged 15.2 percent between the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016.B) But before you dump all of your retail stocks, there are more facts you should consider. Looking only at that 15.2

33、 percent surge would be misleading. It was an increase that was on a small base of 6.9 percent. Even when a tiny number grows by a large percentage terms, it is often still tiny.C) More than 20 years after the internet was opened to commerce, the Census Bureau tells us that brick and mortar sales ac

34、counted for 92.3 percent of retail sales in the first quarter of 2016. Their data show that only 0.8 percent of retail sales shifted from offline to online between the beginning of 2015 and 2016.D) So, despite all the talk about drone ( 无人机) deliveries to your doorstep, all the retail executives exp

35、ressing anxiety over consumers going online, and even a Presidential candidate exclaiming that Amazon has a huge antitrust problem, the Census data suggest that physical retail is thriving. Of course, the closed stores, depressed executives, and sinking stocks suggest otherwise. Whats the real story

36、?E) Many firms operating brick and mortar stores are in trouble. The retail industry is getting reinvented, as we describe in our new book Matchmakers. Its standing in the Path of what Schumpeter called a gale (大风) of creative destruction. That storm has been brewing for some time, and as it has rea

37、ched gale force, most large retailers are searching for a response. As the CFO of Macy s put it recently, “Were frankly scratching our heads.”F) But its not happening as experts predicted. In the peak of the dot. com bubble, brick and mortar retail was one of those industries the internet was going

38、to kill-and quickly. The dot.corn bust discredited most predictions of that sort and in the years that followed, onventional retailersconfidence in the future increased as Census continued to report weak online sales. And then the gale hit.G) It is becoming increasingly clear that retail reinvention

39、 isn t a simple battle to the death between bricks and clicks. It is about devising retail models that work for people who are making increasing use of a growing array of internet-connected tools to change how they search, shop, and buy. Creative retailers are using the new technologies to innovate

40、just about everything stores do from managing inventory, to marketing, to getting paid.H) More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep, Apple s massively successful brick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and Amazons small steps in the same direction are what should keep old

41、-fashioned retailers awake at night. Not to mention the large number of creative new retailers, like Bonobos, that are blending online and offline experiences in creative ways.I) Retail reinvention is not a simple process, and it s also not happening on what used to be called Internet Time. Some int

42、ernet-driven changes have happened quickly, of course. Craigslist quickly overtooknewspaper classified ads and turned newspaper economics upside down. But many widely anticipated changes werent quick, and some havent really started. With the benefit of hindsight ( 后见之明), it looks like the interact w

43、ill transform the economy at something like the pace of other great inventions like electricity. B2B commerce, for example, didnt move mainly online by 2005 as many had predicted in 2000, nor even by 2016, but that doesnt mean it wont do so over the next few decades.J) But the gale is still blowing.

44、 The sudden decline in foot traffic in recent years, even though it hasnt been accompanied by a massive decline in physical sales, is a critical warning. People can shop more efficiently online and therefore dont need to go to as many stores to find what they want. Theres a surplus of physical shopp

45、ing space for the crowds, which is one reason why stores are downsizing and closing.K) The rise of the mobile phone has recently added a new level of complexity to the process of retail reinvention. Even five years ago most people faced a choice. Sit at your computer, probably at home or at the offi

46、ce, search and browse, and buy. Or head out to the mall,or Main Street, look and shop, and buy. Now, just about everyone has a smartphone, connected to the internet almost everywhere almost all the time. Even when a retailer gets a customer to walk in the store, she can easily see if theres a better

47、 deal online or at another store nearby.L) So far, the main thing many large retailers have done in response to all this is to open online stores, so people will come to them directly rather than to Amazon and its smaller online rivalsMany are having the same problem that newspapers have. Even if they get online traffic, they struggle to make enough money online to compensate for what they are losing offline.M) A few seem to be making this work Among large traditional retailers, Walmart recently repo
