The big day is finally here. Yu and yur team have made it t the final game f the sccer turnament. Yu’re ready t win... but s is the ther team. Then, suddenly, smene scres! The game is ver. The ther team has wn and earns a shiny gld cup. But then the caches start giving ut smething else t yu and the ther players: participatin (参与) awards. Everyne reacts differently. Sme glw with pride. Others lk disappinted. And yu? Yu dn’t knw hw t feel...
Participatin awards have been arund since the 1920s when they were invented t make sprts safer fr kids. That’s because when the first yuth sprts leagues were created in the early 1900s, games were even mre cmpetitive than they are tday. Many kids were badly hurt in their effrt t win. Adults were cncerned. Sme schls even canceled sprts prgrams altgether.
But then came a slutin: participatin awards. The pint was t take the sptlight away frm winning and put it n ther values, like teamwrk and cmmitment, r sticking with smething. Many peple tday say that’s why participatin awards are still needed. “Winning isn’t everything,” says Kenneth Barish, a scientist wh studies kids’ feelings and behavir. “The mre imprtant thing is t let kids knw that we’re prud f them — nt fr winning, but fr their effrt. Praising effrt has amazing benefits. It makes it easier fr yung peple t try new things withut fear, learn frm mistakes, and take n new challenges with a psitive attitude.”
But sme peple wrry that giving awards t everyne sends the wrng message. In real life, peple are nt always rewarded fr just shwing up. After all, yu dn’t get an A just fr ging t class. Participatin awards, sme say, culd teach kids t expect awards when they aren’t deserved.
S what d yu think? Des everyne deserve a participatin award? Or is it time t tss them aside fr gd?

B. They were created in the first yuth sprts leagues in the 1900s.
C. They were aimed at making the games less cmpetitive than befre.
D. They were the nly way t remve cncern abut the safety f sprts.

A. The limitatins f winning the game.
B. The applicatins f praising the effrt.
C. The significance f develping the teamwrk spirit.
D. The imprtance f frming a healthy view f effrt.

T be clear: Fd nise has nthing t d with hunger r fd shrtage, says Lawrence Cheskin, a prfessr f nutritin and fd studies at Gerge Masn University. It’s abut being absrbed in thughts abut fd.
In an issue f the jurnal Nutrients, researchers defined fd nise as smething that can be caused by internal signs such as yur stmach grwling with hunger r external signs such as seeing r smelling delicius fds. These signs can cause fd-related thughts t start playing n a repetitive cycle.
“Imagine yu have a picture chart — think abut what percentage f the day is spent thinking abut fd,” says Susan Albers, a clinical psychlgist. “Fr thse with a lt f fd nise, 80 t 90 percent f their day is spent thinking abut fd.” “Fr thse with intrusive fd nise, it might affect their sleep, r lead t shame arund eating r anxius thughts,” says Gldman. “It can get in the way f smene being able t functin at their best.” By cntrast, thse with mild fd nise may hardly ntice it.
Anyne can experience fd nise but peple with besity r verweight ften struggle with fd nise mre than ther peple d which can make it difficult t lse weight. Other peple include thse with an eating disrder r disrdered eating pattern. Als, if yu have a lt f fd rules r yu’ve been dieting ff and n fr years, yu may be mre likely t experience fd nise. “There’s a lt f shame and judgment arund fd nise,” Albers says. “It can impact relatinships, leading t scial withdrawal, and reduce peple’s engagement in ther areas f their life.”
Keep in mind, hwever, that fd nise is a cmmn suffering. “Dn’t beat yurself up fr it. Instead, exercise sme self-sympathy,” Gldman suggests. “The way we talk t urselves matters, s be mindful abut what yu’re saying t yurself abut fd nise.”
32. What d we knw abut the fd nise?
A. It’s the nise peple make while eating.
B. It’s nly fr peple with weight issues.
C. It refers t repeated fd thughts due t signs.
D. It’s related t fd shrtage and causes hunger.
33. What des the underlined wrd “intrusive” in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. annyingB. invitingC. availableD. unnticeable
34. Hw des fd nise affect peple’s life?
A. It leads t severe weight gain.
B. It brings abut regular eating habits.
C. It results in a lack f scial activities.
D. It causes sleep disrders and vereating.
35. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
