A person who eats such food can get an illness called food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most common symptoms.Certain microorganisms(微生物)cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other microorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things release(释放)poisons that make people sick.Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown, processed, or prepared. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to kill weeds and insects. Some people may have a bad reaction to those chemicals when they eat the crops.Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms multiply rapidly in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be poisonous.Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons, they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.11．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Food when poisoned can make people sick.B．Food poisoning means death.C．Food poisoning comes in varieties.D．Food poisoning can be serious.12．We know from the passage that the symptoms of food poisoning________.A．are always accompanied by a feverB．are too common to be noticedC．can be noticed within hoursD．can be ignored13．Food poisoning can be caused by all the following EXCEPT________.A．some chemicals B．low temperaturesC．some tiny living things D．certain natural materials14．From Paragraph 5，we can learn that________.A．mushrooms should not be eatenB．vegetables are safer than meat and seafoodC．natural poisons are more dangerous than chemicalsD．different types of food should be handled differently15．It can be inferred from the passage that________.A．natural materials are safe in food processingB．chemicals are needed in food processingC．food poisoning can be kept under controlD．food poisoning is out of controlBEvery person learns at least one language in his childhood that is routinely used for speaking and writing.However, many people are fond of learning two or more languages.There are numerous benefits of being bilingual such as an improvement in linguistic abilities as well as betterment of cognitive (认知) flexibility such as divergent thinking, concept formation, verbal abilities and general reasoning.Many people have the capacity to learn a second language.It may be another language in the same country or totally different language from another country.Nowadays, institutes and schools offering foreign language courses are popping up throughout the world.While learning another language, you need to understand its basic grammar and improve vocabulary.Being bilingual offers greater sensitivity to language, more flexibility in thinking and a better ear for listening.It also improves a person's understanding for the native language.It opens the door to other cultures.Moreover, knowledge of other languages increases the career opportunities, offering several job options.The bilingual people can have some specific advantages in thinking.They have two or more words for each idea and object and can develop a creative thinking and an ability to think more flexibly.The bilinguals are aware about which language should be spoken with which person in a particular situation.Therefore, they are more sensitive to the needs of the listener, than the monolingual people.Being bilingual has a positive effect on intellectual growth.It enhances and enriches a person's mental development.The bilinguals are better at IQ tests as comparedto the monolinguals.What is more, being bilingual may keep your mind young.Juggling two languages as a child can slow mental decline.The bilinguals are able to switch between different languages and talk to different people in various languages.It increases a sense of self－esteem.Being bilingual creates a powerful link in different people from different countries.The bilinguals tend to show a higher performance in examinations and tests.The bilinguals enjoy reading and writing in different languages.They can understand and appreciate literatures in various languages.It gives a deeper knowledge of different ideas and traditions.It helps improve the ways of thinking and behaving.The pleasures of reading poetry, novels and magazines as well as the enjoyment of writing to family and friends are doubled for bilinguals.16．Which is the best title of the passage?A．We should be bilingualB．Learning languages is of great helpC．Advantages of being bilingualD．Mastering languages17．Which of the following is not the cognitive benefits of being bilingual?A．It makes a person think creatively.B．It makes a person more sensitive to the listener's needs/demands.C．It improves and enriches a person's mental development.D．It does good to a person's character.18．According to the author, being bilingual can ________.A．be happier than the monolingual peopleB．develop a strong relationship between peopleC．have a better understanding of the listenerD．build up a person's confidence19．It can be inferred that when hunting for a job, ________.A．a person can increase his own sense of self－esteemB．graduates are offered more opportunitiesC．the bilinguals have an advantage over othersD．the bilinguals can understand the employers better20．Whom is the passage written to?A．Foreign students.

课时提升作业十二必修3Unit 2Healthy eating(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AIt is said that there’s no such things as a free lunch, but even if you manage to beg a bargain meal, it will not taste as good as a more expensive choice, according to scientists.A new study has found that restaurant goers who pay more for the food is tastier than offered for a smaller price. The experts think that people tend to associate cost with quality and this changes their perception(感知) of how food tastes.Scientists at Cornell University studied the eating habits of 139 people who enjoy an Italian buffet in a restaurant. The price of the food was set by the researchers at either $4 or $8 for the all-you-can-eat meal. Customers were asked to rate how good the food tasted, the quality of the restaurant and to leave their names.The experiment showed that the people who paid $8 enjoyed their meal 11% more than those who ate the “cheaper” buffet. Interestinglythose that paid for the $4 buffet said they felt guiltier about loading up their plates and felt that they overate. However, the scientists said that both groups ate around the same quantity of food in total.Brian Wansink, a professor of consumer behavior at the university, said, “we were fascinated to find that pricing has little effect on how much one eats, but a huge effect on how you interpret the experience. ” He thinks that people enjoyed their food more as they associated cost with quality and that small changes to a restaurant can change how tasty people find their meals.In a previous study, researchers from the university showed that people who eat in bright lighting consume more than eat in less brightly lit areas.【文章大意】俗话说天底下没有免费的午餐, 但科学家表示, 即使你享用了便宜的饭菜, 它的味道也没有昂贵饭菜好吃。

课时提升作业十二必修3Unit 2Healthy eating(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AThe effect of drinking coffee on health has long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty. Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.According to a scientific report, mild coffee consumption, three to five cups per day, can be taken as a healthy dietary pattern, along with other healthful behaviors. The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson’s disease.According to Dr. Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic, high consumption of coffee has health risks. Dr. Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body. Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr. Gregory Marcus, a doctor from the University of California San Francisco,daily moderate consumption of caffeine, less than 4 cups, is not associated with these issues.Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health, it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking coffee, Harwood, a high school student stated, “Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee, for the most part, coffee drinking sounds good for health. Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake. ”【文章大意】本文讲述的是每天饮用适量的咖啡对身体有益, 过度饮用咖啡则会对身体健康造成危害, 并引发一些疾病。

There's no doubt that dairy products(乳制品)，milk in particular， are high in protein and calcium， and most milk products are supplemented with Vitamin D and A.While it's well－known that our bones need calcium， some studies suggest thathigh calcium intake doesn't necessarily lower a person's risk for fractures(骨折).A Harvard study found that people who drank two or more glasses of milk had no greater protection from breaking a bone than those who drank a glass or less a week.There's no doubt that we need calcium. Some anti－dairy supporters claim that dairy can lead to heart disease. Much of this claim is based on high fat and high dairy products，like cheeses and creams，which may indeed contribute to cardiovascular problems. Some studies have linked high milk intake with a risk of prostate cancer； this seems to be caused by high－fat dairy products， not dairy in general.Although milk was always regarded as one of the most important thing we need for our bones， yet least promoted factors involved in strengthening bones. Perhaps we should think of dairy as less like a nutrient and more like a food. If you like it， eat it.If not， find some_others. Because some claims may not be completely true. When I eat a cream， I'm not thinking about calcium， protein， or any such thing. I'm thinking delicious.16．Which of the following is TRUE on the milk？A．The more milk you drink， the more risk for fractures you might be.B．The more milk you drink， the less risk for fractures you might be.C．The less milk you drink， the less risk for fractures you might be.D．There is no link between them.17．Some anti－dairy supporters claim that dairy can lead to some diseases EXCEPT________.A．cardiovascular problemsB．heart diseaseC．prostate cancerD．stomach cancer18．The underlined words “some others” in the last paragraph refer to________.A．dairy products B．milkC．other food D．cream19．What's the author's attitude towards milk？A．He doesn't like milk any more.B．He used to drink milk as a child.C．He regards milk as a nutrient.D．He always cares about calcium， protein when he eats something.20．We can learn from the text that________.A．all the claims are not completely trueB．high milk intake can lead to cancerC．it's necessary for you to reduce milk intakeD．you'd better give up milk for your healthⅢ.阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

At this point, of course, any pill for humans is but a twinkle(闪烁) in the eye of every medicine company's CEO.More tests are to be made, and eventually humans will be introduced in the test.But for now，unfortunately，control in diet is still the key.11．What does “such a surprising task” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．Eating a lot of food while losing weight.B．Burning up fat very quickly.C．Controlling the diet.D．Having a rich fantasy life.12．Why did the author say he/she had to be a mouse in Paragraph 4?A．Because a mouse can lose weight no matter how much it eats.B．Because the weight losing tests were made on the mouse.C．Because the mouse has a very good metabolism.D．Because the author wants to try the food without the enzyme.13．In the experiment, the mice without those enzymes________.A．were in good conditionB．put on weightC．became weakD．could not have baby mice14．What does the author want to show through the last two paragraphs?A．You can be free of guilt when having big dinners.B．Scientists cannot find the key to identifying theenzyme.C．Don't overeat before the test is made on humans.D．It is unnecessary to control weight at present.BThese fast food restaurants constantly remind us of the American fondness with hamburgers，chips and pizza.But America's reputation as the home of fast food is under threat from the British，according to a research carried out by the BBC in 13 nations among 9,000 people.Despite fears over obesity，the study found the British are more obsessed with junk food than any other nation.Almost half of British respondents(参与调查者)said they enjoyed fast food too much to give it up. About 44 percent in the US claimed they would be unable to stop eating burgers，pizzas and chicken wings，making the country second in the world's junk food league. The third place went to the United Arab Emirates，where 35 percent are junk­food lovers.The research also found that attitudes to food and weight vary wildly around the world. Those in the UK and US believed lack of self­discipline was the main factor behind growing waistlines(腰围). They can't deny themselves that hamburger or extra piece of pizza，but “make themselves feel better by washing it down with a diet coke”，the study suggested.The French，on the other hand，seem to keep a watchful eye on their weight. They get on the scales every day. Only 19 percent of the French surveyed admitted a fondness for fast food.Thierry Pailleux，of France，from the market research firm that conducted the poll，said the French valued the combination of good food and company. Sharing classic food and time withloved ones is key to the French sensibility. “French people take care of their image as a matter of course. Being thin is part of our culture and a point of pride. We are known for it，” said Pailleux.“On top of this，there is increasing awareness of the devastation(伤害)that obesity can cause to one's health.”15．What's the main idea of the passage?A．A study of different attitudes towards fast food.B．How popular fast food is in foreign countries.C．Different countries' attitudes towards food and body weight.D．A study of how popular fast food is in foreign countries.16．The research shows that ________.A．Americans are proud of the fast foods they eatB．those British who love fast foods do not care about their body weightC．the British would like to think that other foods they eat make up for eating occasional fast foodD．most Americans believe the enjoyment of food is more important than its possible effect on their waistlines17．What's the meaning of the underlined word “obsessed” in the second paragraph?A．Crazy. B．Obese. C．Opposed.
