It is part of his global campaign to make schools around the world teach healthy cooking and eating as a must of their courses.“I think that all you guys, should be taught how to cook delicious, fresh food from scratch---- not complicated food, but nice, simple, everyday meals that are going to inspire, uplift, and make you and your future families live happier, healthier lives,”Oliver told TFK in an .According to the global statistic that 42 million children under the age of five are overweight, Oliver believes that this right is more important than ever.Parts of Oliver’s goal with this year’s Food Revolution Day is to get one-and-a-half million people to sign his online petition(请愿书) for food education. Along with Oliver, musicians Ed Sheeran and Paul McCartney are urging people to read the petition, sign it, and share it to help reach their goal.In the United Kingdom, Oliver and other activists found that food served in schools was often just unhealthy. The School Food Plan was created to address the problem. It took effect in 2013 and requires the UK’s 22,000 schools to serve healthy lunches whilemaking food education a required part of classroom education for students aged 5-14. Free school lunches are also provided for all 5-, 6-, and 7-year-olds under this plan.Students at Charlton Manor Primary School get a cooking lesson in their school kitchen.Tim Baker, head of this school, always believes in the importance of teaching healthy eating, and wants to share his beliefs with students. He says the School Food Plan helped him put pressure on school food providers to improve food quality and healthiness.“The School Food Plan has been fantastic,” Jamie Oliver says. “I'm hoping we're at a point where the UK can take the lead on food education, and as we start to see more and more British kids with a real knowledge and understanding of food and cooking, I see other countries starting to follow us.”25.

Inventors have issued a new digital running shirt, which has all the features of an electronic tracking device and more.The “D-Shirt” is made from a special fabric(织物) woven with sensors, which record your heart rate, GPS location, route, speed and altitude.The shirt, which is lightweight and washable, sends the information to an app on your smartphone by Bluetooth. The phone can store and analyze data from the fabric, showing the person’s route, time, heart ra te and number of calories burned. It can also help indicate when the runner is pushing himself too hard and risking the heart attack.“We believe that our connected l ives in the future should not be more complicate.They should be easier. So we are developing technology which does not require people to change their habits,” said Stanislas Vandier, deputy chief executive. “You never leave home without a shirt. So we are simply turning a T-shirt into D-Shirt. In the future, the same principle can be applied to all sorts of clothes.”Developers are now working on heart, breath and sweat sensors, so this shirt can be particularly helpful for people in extreme conditions, such as athletes, first responders, and soldiers. It is hoped that in the future, other factors such as blood oxygen level can also be monitored using the fabric.29.Which of the following is a feature of the “D-Shirt”?A.It is more accurate than a sports watch.B.It can help the runners know when they’d better slow down.C.It can store and analyze the ru nner’s weight.D.It can design routes and speed limits for the runner.30.According to Stanislas Vandier, the idea behind the “D-Shirt” is to ___.e the same principles for different productsB.help people get rid of unhealthy habitsC.make life simpler through technologyD.develop affordable modern devices for ordinary people31.We can infer from the last paragraph that the next generation “D-Shirt” would probably___.A.provide data for more health factorsB.read and adjust people’s blood levelsC.keep you connected with the Internet wherever you goD.drive sports records beyond people’s imaginationDShaving all of your hair off isn’t an easy thing to do.But it’s just what several dozen Americans choose to do each year to support friends and family with cancer who often don’t have a choice but to go bald because of the effects of treatment. This year the popular Bald is Beautiful fundraiser（募捐）was held in New Hampshire on March 13.Some say going bald is the least they can do for friends with cancer.“I don’t think hair decides who we are, but it’s certainly something we’re very protective of”, said Rebecca Pratt, a nurse at Cheshire Medical Center in New Hampshire.Pratt, is no stranger to a “shiny dome（圆顶）”, as she calls it. She first went bald as a part of the fundraiser team at the hospital six years ago. At the time, her hair was down to the middle of her back, she said.The team called “Andrea’s Angels” was formed in honor of Cheshire Medical Centeremployee Andrea Smith, who died of cancer.Last year, Bald is Beautiful events in the area raised about $40,000.The money goes toward basic requirements for cancer patients, including painkillers, gas money and groceries. It helps to reduce some of the financial burdens that come with illness.Pratt said the act of shaving it all off can be emotional, but it’s always worth it.“It’s intimidating in the very beginning to think of losing all your hair,” she said. But she added that any anxiety she might have about shaving her head is nothing compared to what cancer patients have to deal with.32. Why did Pratt shave all of her hair off six years ago?A. To get a popular “shiny dome”.B. To help raise money for cancer patients.C. To show honor to her workmate Andrea Smith.D. To present support and protection for cancer patients.33. What is the money raised by Bald is Beautiful events used for?A. Cancer patients’ fitness costs.B. Cancer patients’ mental health.C. Cancer patients’ transportation fees.D. Cancer patients’ food and medical treatment.34. The underlined word “intimidating” is closest in meaning to _____.A. frighteningB. interestingC. surprisingD. disappointing35. The main purpose of the text is to _____.A. recommend a good way to help people who have cancerB. report on a fundraising event for cancer patientsC. explain how Bald is Beautiful events became popularD. introduce Pratt’s experiences of Bald is Beautiful events第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
