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 help people lose weight. For years, nutri

25、tionists 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 and potatoes for vegetables, fish and mea

26、t. 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 people drop more than half a kilogram ov

27、er four months. The reviewers found that pasta had been unfairly demonized(妖魔化) because it had been30 in with other more, ft-promoting carbohydrates " The study found that pasta didnt 31 to weight gain or increase in body fat, " said lead author Dr John Sievenpiper.

The Best Retailers Combine Bricks and Clicks A)Retail profits are falling sharply. Stores are closing. Malls are emptying. The de

32、pressing 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 and mortar stores (:(i) seem to be going the way of the yellow pages. Sure enough, the Census Bureau just released data showing that on

33、line 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 percent "surge" would be misleading. It was an increase that was on a small base

34、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 accounted for 92.3 percent of retail sales in the first quarter of 2016. Their d

35、ata 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(無(wú)人機(jī) )deliveries to your doorstep, al he retail executives expressing anxiety over consumers going online, and even a Presidential candidate ex

36、claiming 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。 E)Many firms operating brick and mortar stores are in trouble. The retails g

37、etting reinvented, as we describe in our new book Matchmakers, Its standing in the Path of what Schumpeter called a gale( 大風(fēng))of creative destruction That storm has been brewing for some time, and as it has reached gale force, most large retailers are searching for a response. As the CFO of Macys put

38、 it recently. ”We re 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 to kill-and quickly. The dot. corn bust discredited most predictions of that sort and in

39、the years that followed, on-ventional retailers confidence 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 isnt a simple battle to the death between bricks and clicks. It is about devising r

40、etail 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 just about everything stores do from managing inventory, to marketing, to getting pai

41、d. H) More than drones dropping a new supply of underwear on your doorstep, Apples massively successful brick-and-mortar-and-glass retail stores and Amazons small steps in the same direction are what should keep old-fashioned retailers awake at night. Not to mention the large number of creative new

42、 retailers, like Bonobos, that are blending online and offline experiences in creative ways. I) Retail reinvention is not a simple process, and its also not happening on what used to be called "Internet Time." Some internet-driven changes have happened quickly, of course. Craigslist quickly overtoo

43、k newspaper 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 (? LZ 9]), it looks like the interact will transform the economy at something like the pace of other great inventions

44、 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. The sudden decline in foot traffic in recent years, even though it hasnt

45、been accompanied by a massive decline in physical sales, is acritical 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 shopping space for the crowds, which is one reason why stores are downsizing and

46、 closing. K) The rise of the mobile phone has recently added a new level of complexity tothe process of retail reinvention. Even five years ago most people faced a choice. Sitat your computer, probably at home or at the office, search and browse, and buy. Or head out to the mall, or Main Street, lo

47、ok 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 deal online or at another store nearby. L) So far, the main thing many l

48、arge 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 rivals. Many are having the same problem that newspapers have. Even if they get online traffic, they struggle to make enough money online to co

49、mpensate for what they are losing offline. M) A few seem to be making this work. Among large traditional retailers, Walmart recently reported the best results, leading its stock price to surge, while Macys, Target, and Nordstrom’s dropped. Yet Walmarts year-over-year online sale only grew 7 percent

50、, leading its CEO to lament(%l%). Growth here is too slow. " Part of the problem is that almost two decades after Amazon filed the one click patent, the online retail shopping and buying experience is filled with frictions. A recent stud graded more than 600 internet retailers on how easy it was for

51、 consumers to shop, buy and pay. Almost half of the sites didn’t get a passing grade and only 18 percent got an A or B N) The turmoil on the ground in physical retail is hard to square with the Census data. Unfortunately, part of the explanation is that the Census retail data are unreliable. Our de

52、ep 100k into those data and their preparation revealed serious problems. It seems likely that Census simply misclassifies a large chunk of online sales. It is certain that the Census procedures, which lump the online sales of major traditional retailers like Walmart with "non-store retailers "like f

53、ood trucks, can mask major changes in individual retail categories. The bureau could easily present their data in more useful ways. but they have chosen not to. O) Despite the turmoil, brick and mortar won’t disappear any time soon. The big questions are which, if any, of the large traditional reta

54、ilers will still be on the scene in a decade or two because they have successfully reinvented themselves, which new players will operate busy stores on Main Streets and maybe even in shopping malls and how the shopping and buying experience will have changed in each retail category. Investors should

55、n’t write off brick and mortar. Whether they should bet on the traditional players who run those stores now is another matter. 36.Although online retailing has existed for some twenty years, nearly half of the internet retailers still fail to receive satisfactory feedback from consumers, according

56、to a recent survey 37. Innovative retailers integrate internet technologies with conventional retailing to create new retail models 38. Despite what the Census data suggest, the value of physical retails stocks has been dropping. 39. Innovative-driven changes in the retail industry didn’t take pl

57、ace as quickly as widely anticipated 40. Statistics indicate that brick and mortar sales still made up the lion’s share of the retail business 41. Companies that successfully combine online and online business models may prove to be a big concern for traditional retailers. 42. Brick and mortar re

58、tailers faith in their business was strengthened when the dot com bubble burst 43. Despite the tremendous challenges from online retailing, traditional retailing will be here to stay for quite some time 44. With the rise of online commerce, physical retail stores are likely to suffer the same fate

59、 as i the yellow pages. 45. The wide use of smart phones has made it more complex for traditional retailers to reinvent their business Section C Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by, some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fou

60、r choices marked A), B) C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage Professor Stephen Hawking has warned that the creation of powerful ar

61、tificial intelligence (AI) will be "either the best, or the worst thing, ever to happen to humanity", and praised the creation of an academic institute dedicated to researching the future of intelligence as crucial to the future of our civilization and our species". Hawking was speaking at the open

62、ing of the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence( LCFI )at Cambridge University, a multi-disciplinary institute that will attempt to tackle some of the open-ended questions raised by the rapid pace of development in Al research. We spend a great deal of time studying history. Hawking said

63、, "which, lets face it, is mostly the history of stupidity. So it: s a welcome change that people are studying instead the future of intelligence. While the world-renowned physicist has often been cautious about Al, raisin concerns that humanity could be the architect of its own destruction if it c

64、reates a super-intelligence with a will of its own. he was also quick to highlight the positives that Al research can bring. "The potential benefits of creating intelligence are huge, he said, "We cannot predict what we might achieve when our own minds are amplified by A. Perhaps with the tools of t

65、his new technological revolution, we will be able to undo some of the damage done to the natural world by the last one-industrialization And surely we will aim to finally eradicate disease and poverty And every aspect of our lives will be transformed. In short, success in creating Al could be the bi

66、ggest event in the history of our civilization. Huw Price, the centre’s academic director and the Bertrand Russell professor of philosophy at Cambridge University, where Hawking is also an academic, said that the centre came about partially as a result of the university’s Centre for Existential Risk. That institute examined a wider range of potential problems for humanity, while the LCFI has a narrow focus AI pioneer Margaret Boden, professor of cognitive science at the
