Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight. But the opposite is true for men, whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.
Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.
It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to make creamier, heavier dishes curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.
Women still have the strongest long-term influence over the couple’s diet and lifestyle, as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.
The report, by Newcastle University’s Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.
The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.
Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.
Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.
Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, “The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.”

(答案→)D 解析:(A)本文是说纽卡斯尔大学的营养学专家的研究表明,同居让女人发胖让男人更健康。41.D 细节理解题。由第三段,特别是which may please their partner可知,男女双方会改变自己的饮食习惯来迎合对方,因此男士会吃他的女伴喜欢吃的食物。42.B 词意猜测题。由其后所举的例子salads, fruit and vegetables可推断,light 在此是“清淡的”的意思,脂肪和糖的含量比较少。43.C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知C项正确。根据倒数第三段可知女士增肥不仅是因为迎合了对方的口味,还有缓解情绪的原因,故A项错误;根据倒数第三段最后while the same finding has not been observed in men可知B项错误;D项文中没有提及。44.A 推理判断题。纵览全文,特别是根据短文最后一个句子可推断A正确。D项文中第二段已经明确指出,不是推断。45.C 主旨要义题。C项幽默风趣,能吸引读者的注意,并切中文章的主题。
