The search for food is the 1 human behavior. Thus, 2 food were easier to get and prepare, it would be really 3 for humankind. It would reduce a great burden(负担). The development of processed foods(加工食品) has made food easier to get and prepare. 4 every coin has two sides. Apart from its advantages, the 5 of cooking also has its disadvantages.Though processed foods seem a great way to save 6 , they offer much less nutritional(营养的)value than traditional foods.

But what will 9 if one eats such food all year round? It will damage your 10 . The nutritional value of the food is not so high. Worse still, research shows that preservatives(防腐剂)used in these foods are 11 to child ren. That’s why health experts warn people not to eat too much of such 12 food.Besides, since people spend little time 13 food, the culture of cooking is slowly 14 . Cooking is not done just to satisfy hunger; it is also a(n) 15 form of art. Across the world, there are thousands of 16 cooking styles. If young people are used to processed foods, few of them will develop great cooking 17 . And when they become parents, it will be hard for their children to enjoy a(n) 18 home-cooked meal. What’s more, cooking is a great time for 19 to connect.

Finally, we faced the number one team in the state. I felt that it would be a 16 for us even if we lost the game. But that wasn’t what hap pened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me one of the greatest 17 of my life！From the experience I learnt a lot about how the attitude of the leader can 18 the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and 19 them. I helped them to see themselves 20 , and they built themselves into winners.Winners are made, but born.1．A．luck B．tests C．efforts D．nature2．A．experiment B．experience C．visit D．show 3．A．operating B．editing C．consulting D．coaching 4．A．successful B．excellent C．strong D．new 5．A．cheer for B．prepare for C．help with D．finish with 6．A．believe B．agree C．describe D．regret 7．A．realize B．claim C．permit D．demand 8．A．reacting to B．looking for C．depending on D．caring about 9．A．decision B．attitude C．conclusion D．intention 10．A．pride B．culture C．fortune D．relationship 11．A．leaders B．partners C．winners D．learners 12．A．rewards B．vacations C．health D．honor 13．A．risked B．missed C．considered D．practiced 14．A．defeat B．decline C．accident D．mistake 15．A．relax B．improve C．expand D．defend 16．A．shame B．burden C．victory D．favor 17．A．chances B．thrills C．concerns D．offers 18．A．surprise B．serve C．interest D．affect 19．A．encouraged B．observed C．protectedD．impressed20．A．honestly B．individually C．calmly D．differently【答案】1．C2．B3．D4．D5．B6．A7．A8．C9．B10．A11．C12．B13．D14．A15．B16．C17．B18．D19．A20．D6．Eric Moussambani, a swimmer from Equatorial Guinea, won brief international fame at Sydney’s 2000 Olympic Games for an extremely unlikely victory.Twelve months before the Olympics, Moussambani had never gone outside of his home country, an extremely poor tiny African nation.

Of the three competitors in the first round, Moussambani was the 9 competitor who was not removed from the game for starting early.

Many people have a passion (激情) for learning languages. Human language evolve (进化) from hand gestures and other signs that people used to 2 with each other. Ancient people started with drawing 3 about what they wanted to say, which later on evolved into some languages, after which many other dialects (方言) have come into 4 . With over 2,700 different languages and 7,000 dialects 5 all over the world, the world has many different cultures that 6 speak their native dialects.One such 7 that is even older than the holy book Quran (the finest work in classical Arabic 8 ) is Arabic. It is known to be one of the most 9 spoken languages, as over 300 million people speak in this tongue. In case you want to learn it, then there are many Arabictranslation services that 10 people how to actually speak the language. This language alone has hundreds of different dialects that are used by people depending on what 11 they are at. It is 12 that people who speak 13 languages find it difficult to communicate with each other because of the difference in dialect; 14 , just like every other language, this language also has a standard language which is used in broadcasts, newspapers, magazines and even in 15 that teach Arabic as their second language.So if you want to 16 what a person who has a different Arabic dialect is trying to say, you would need the 17 of Arabic translation services. As mentioned earlier, they teach this language; however, you need to have enough time to learn it 18 it is also known to be one of the most 19 languages that one can learn. In fact, many university students who major in this language get help from these agencies, making it 20 for them to learn it.1．A．ways B．skills C．expressions D．means2．A．communicate B．fight C．competeD．exchange3．A．numbers B．circles C．maps D．pictures4．A．sight B．effect C．fashion D．action5．A．concerned B．useful C．present D．familiar6．A．meanwhile B．still C．seldom D．never7．A．book B．game C．custom D．language8．A．literature B．style C．theory D．influence9．A．probably B．necessarily C．widely D．loudly10．A．advise B．teach C．explain D．remind11．A．level B．length C．age D．location12．A．surprising B．comforting C．disappointing D．challenging13．A．foreign B．native C．similar D．various14．A．therefore B．however C．besides D．or15．A．schools B．restaurants C．hospitals D．supermarkets16．A．repeat B．forecast C．research D．understand17．A．list B．help C．sharing D．review18．A．because B．though C．unless D．until19．A．important B．formal C．difficult D．lively20．A．safer B．cheaper C．freer D．easier【答案】1．B2．A3．D4．B5．C6．B7．D8．A9．C10．B11．D12．A13．C14．B15．A16．D17．B18．A19．C20．D8．London taxi drivers know the capital like the back of their hands. Just jump into one of the city's 22,000 distinctive black cars and tell the driver your 1 .However small the street is, the driver will be able to get you there without any trouble.The reason why London taxi drivers are so 2 is that they have all 3 a very tough training period to get the special license to drive taxis. During this period, taking two to four years in general, the wouldbe taxi driver has to learn the most direct 4 to every single road and to every important building in London. 5 this, most learners go around the city on small motorbikes, 6 how to move to and from different points of the city.Learner taxi drivers are tested several times during the period by government officers. Most drivers think the exams are a terrible 7 .Learner drivers are not allowed to work—and earn money—as drivers, either. Therefore, many of them keep their 8 jobs until they obtain their taxidriving license. The training period can cost quite a lot because learners have to pay for their own expenses—getting around London using 9 transport, the tests and a medical exam.Once a new taxi driver has a license, the 10 thing to deal with is the public. Drivers agree that most passengers are very nice, although 11 they can be annoying. 12 , if they're unpleasant to their passenger, they won't get a tip.But sometimes it's not only the tip that is 13 ， a taxi driver's job can also be dangerous. To avoid this, more and more drivers are joining radio taxi companies, which only deal with customers who have phoned for a taxi and who often have an account with them. The big 14 of this system is that drivers then know the names and the destinations of their passengers15 ， which is very useful if anything 16 happens.London taxi drivers love to talk to people and most of them start a 17 as soon as the passenger steps into their vehicle. Talking and driving at the same time is the art that London taxi drivers have brought to 18 . They and their taxis are a 19 of the capital and are 20 throughout the world, along with the Queen, Tower Bridge and Big Ben.1．A．office B．purpose C．destination D．home2．A．friendly B．clever C．effective D．efficient3．A．gone through B．taken on C．taken upD．carried out4．A．way B．street C．road D．route5．A．Achieving B．So as to achieve C．To achieve D．Only to achieve 6．A．testing B．practicing C．exercising D．watching7．A．moment B．time C．experience D．life8．A．temporary B．fulltime C．parttime D．previous9．A．public B．private C．alternative D．personal10．A．only B．next C．another D．remaining11．A．often B．never C．occasionally D．rarely12．A．However B．But C．Therefore D．Moreover13．A．at fault B．at risk C．under threat D．in doubt14．A．priority B．problem C．advantage D．profit15．A．in advance B．in turn C．as a resultD．later on16．A．upsetting B．amazing C．interesting D．boring17．A．speech B．communication C．conversation D．interview18．A．satisfaction B．memorization C．recognitionD．perfection19．A．milestone B．symbol C．landscape D．signal20．A．understood B．considered C．recognizedD．popularized【答案】1．C2．D3．A4．D5．C6．B7．C8．D9．B10．B11．C12．A13．B14．C15．A16．A17．C18．D19．B20．C9．There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world.

I used a recipe from the 1976 Mennonite cookbook More With Less and it 8a curious ingredient---two cups of mashed potatoes that 9 made the texture lighter. The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fryin hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt. Whether we host a bigger party or keepit small, there will always be 15 doughnuts, because when you have hot homemade doughnuts, you can't help but have the best time.1．A．challenge B．idea C．opportunity D．occasion2．A．training B．hiring C．knowing D．interviewing3．A．time B．money C．food D．fun4．A．short B．memorable C．messy D．silent5．A．tested out B．moved on C．tuned out D．picked out。

As I was heading home, I saw a girl sitting in a corner of the mall. Her hair covered her face and her body was 1 . I determined to walk past her 2 that’s what we often do. But something made me turn 3 . I learned her age, and why she begged for money and lived on the streets. Her parents 4 years ago and she suffered from a serious skin disease. She was 5 to work because of her disability and had to live in the safest place she could 6 . She had stayed in shelters in the past, but was treated 7 . She had to seek shelter from the mall to keep 8 on cold days, but even the mall she said wasn’t 9 because security(保安) always threw her out.I’m one of those people who used to believe there was a system of 10 to help her. Ideally, I would like to believe in that. I used to think maybe one day I would 11 “them”. Maybe one day I would win the lottery(彩票). But when I 12 that girl, I thought to my self, what if no oneever helped her? What if this so called 13 system that I believed in didn’t even know or 14 her existence? What if I didn’t 15 any money? What if she was not going to be around long enough to 16 that “one day”?I didn’t really think about what happened next. I 17 my dinner with her and gave her all the money I had. When security came, I talked them into assisting her 18 driving her away like they usually did.Don’t 19 one day to come before you help someone. Now is that one day—not tomorrow, not next week. If you can do something to ease someone else’s 20 , don’t wait for that distant one day. Be the one day.

This is something I think a lot when I am teaching foreign languages to young people. I often 1 that traditional teaching 2 are hardly effective for young brains to learn a foreign language.After moving to southern Italy, I was 3 to have had the chance to 4 a private course teaching English to children under 7. I 5 children liked singing and enjoyed games so I wanted to use these 6 to help my students 7 English conversation skills. I found some fun and 8 songs online, which they loved very much. I also found the English version of some nursery rhymes(童谣)they once were 9 with. All of them were very entertaining and helpful but 10 could still not have a basic 11 in English.I wanted these students to be 12 in the language I was teaching and I also wished them to speak it. I was eager to deliver 90% of my lessons in English. 13 , I knew it would be difficult to get them to talk in a foreign language they 14 speak outside our lessons. So I had to 15 a simple yet effective plan.One day I decided to 16 a dialogue in English and rather than simply getting students to repeat the phrases, I got them to chant (反复唱) 17 . I discovered that chanting was a practical way to get students to speak in English-it 18 !So when teaching English to young people now, I 19 them to make up their own chants to help them remember 20 or complex sentences.1．A．suggest B．know C．find D．guess2．A．materials B．processes C．attitudes D．methods3．A．anxious B．lucky C．surprised D．puzzled4．A．get B．offer C．meet D．run5．A．considered B．realized C．proved D．insisted6．A．activities B．tools C．skills D．lessons7．A．develop B．practice C．support D．increase8．A．global B．native C．equal D．easy 9．A．popular B．familiar C．similar D．particular 10．A．students B．teachers C．writers D．readers 11．A．conversation B．performance C．applicationD．contact12．A．experienced B．interested C．concernedD．puzzled13．A．Besides B．Therefore C．However D．Luckily 14．A．fairly B．eagerly C．nearly D．seldom 15．A．come up with B．put up with C．keep up with D．catch up with16．A．prepare B．manage C．connect D．bring 17．A．that B．it C．one D．them 18．A．mattered B．valued C．worked D．wondered 19．A．persuade B．encourage C．remind D．command 20．A．expressions B．conversations C．coursesD．measures【答案】1．C2．D3．B4．D5．B6．B7．A8．D9．B10．A11．A12．B13．C14．D15．A16．A17．D18．C19．B20．A9．His palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his palms. The sun was as hot as the 1 he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The bar (横竿) was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best. Michael Stone faced the most 2 day of his pole-vaulting (撑竿跳高) career.You couldn’t tell whether Michael Stone was surprised, excited or vain about clearing thebar at 17 feet. As soon as he 3 on the inflated (充了气的) landing mat, Michael immediately began 4 for his next attempt at flight. He seemed 5 the fact that he had just beaten his personal best 6 three inches and that he was one of the first two competitors in the pole-vaulting 7 at the National Junior Olympics.When Michael 8 the bar at 17 feet 2 inches and 17 feet 4 inches, again he showed no9 . At the same time, he 10 the people sigh(叹气), he knew the other vaulter had missed his final jump. He knew it was time for his 11 jump. Since the other vaulter had fewer misses, Michael needed to clear this vault to win. A 12 would get him second place. It was nothing to be ashamed of, 13 Michael would not 14 himself to have the thought of not winning first place.He rolled over and found his pole, stood and stepped on the runway that 15 the most challenging event of his 17-year-old life.As he sprinted (冲刺) down the runway, something felt wonderfully different, yet familiar. When he took a deep breath, it happened. He began to 16 like an eagle.He later went on that day to clear 17 feet 6 inches: a new National and International Junior Olympics record.With all the media attention and sponsorship possibilities, Michael’s life would never be 17 again. It wasn’t just because he won the National Junior Olympics and 18 a new world record. And it wasn’t because he had just increased his personal best by 9 i nches. It was simply because Michael Stone is blind.A challenge can sometimes make a 19 to the life, and bring 20 the best in us.1．A．weather B．issue C．audience D．competition2．A．tiring B．inspiring C．challenging D．interesting3．A．ran B．landed C．walked D．climbed4．A．caring B．looking C．accounting D．preparing5．A．afraid of B．unaware of C．ashamed of D．terrified of6．A．by B．to C．from D．at7．A．accident B．event C．project D．ceremony8．A．shot B．threw C．cleared D．cleaned9．A．emotion B．affection C．consideration D．determination10．A．saw B．heard C．observed D．smelt11．A．second B．other C．first D．final12．A．jump B．clearing C．miss D．flight13．A．but B．so C．while D．and14．A．award B．make C．allow D．find15．A．stuck to B．devoted to C．led to D．referred to16．A．fly B．run C．jog D．rush17．A．different B．happy C．in chaos D．the same18．A．set B．held C．kept D．played19．A．use B．effort C．progress D．difference20．A．in B．out C．down D．forward【答案】1． D2． C3． B4． D5． B6． A7． B8． C9． A10． B11． D12． C13． A14． C15． C16． A17． D18． A19． D20． B10．Wheeling her red chair and scissors around the city, Katie gives out—of—luck strangers the gift of visibility.Last summer, Katie saw a man sitting with a 1 asking for help.

We immediately rushed out to a 1 , and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little 2 , but I had a month before the June 30 3 , and I would lose a few pounds.June 29 came and, of course, I hadn't lost a single pound; in fact, I had 4 two.
