You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plateThis journey, from “field to plate”, is called “food miles”A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmers field to the person who buys the foodNowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者)Why is this, and what are the effects(影响) of these long distances?Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market so the food didnt have to travel very farThe consumers also did not travel very far, because they went to their local market to buy the foodThis was a good system for farmers and consumersHowever, there were some disadvantagesFor example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locallyIn addition, they could only get food that was in seasonNow, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the worldWe do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoesThey are available in winter if we want Some countries have to import(进口) most of their foodThis is because they have difficult climatesThe United Arab Emirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countriesEven food made in the UAE often uses imported materials Whats wrong with “food miles”? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasonsFirst of all, because food travels such long distanceswe need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the foodThis means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warmingIn addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tastyTomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeyFor this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumerLocal food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollutionWe need to buy more local food1What is called “food miles” according to this passage?AThe origins of the foodBThe effects of long distancesCThe journey from field to plateDThe disadvantages of imported food2The underlined word “available” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “_”Aeasy to get Bnot busyCwilling to talk Dimpossible to get3Some countries like the United Arab Emirates have to import most of their food because of _Along distancesBdifficult climates Cfresh and tasty foodDmodern technology4The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to _Abuy more local foodBincrease international tradeCtravel long distancesDuse imported materials5This passage is mainly about _Ahow local food travels from field to plateBwhat “food miles” is and its effectsChow some countries import their foodDwhere different kinds of food come fromB One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane（车道）when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire（轮胎）made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.I was frightened. But then I couldnt believe what happened next.The driver of the other car ,the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling at us. I couldnt believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital!This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, The Law of the Rubbish Truck(垃圾车法则).He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of rubbish,full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes theyll throw it at you. Dont take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Dont taketheir rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streetsSuccessful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods. Lifes too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray（祈祷）for those who dont.6. Which of the following is NOT true according to the first paragraphA.

I asked.Because the science and mathematics you know are not correct, he said. You believe there are only three dimensions(三维空间)-length, breadth(宽) and thickness. There is nothing to argue with that, the youngest member of our little group said.Exactly! the time traveler answered, But there is also a fourth dimension - time. We all know about time, another member of the group said. Time passed.I do not agree, the time traveler said, Length, breadth and thickness do not pass. They stay in the same place in space. We move about them. I can prove that time is the same. It does not pass. We move in time the same way that we move in breadth, length and thickness.None of us believed the time traveler, and we argued with him for many hours.If we could travel back in time, the scientist said, We could do things to change the future. If we could travel forward in time, the doctor(博士) said, we could do things that change our present. The time traveler smiled, It is clear, he said, that there is only one way I can show you that I am right. We must do an experiment. Please wait here. He left the room and soon returned, carrying what looked like a This is a model of a time machine. It took me two years to make it, the time traveler said. I want all of you to understand that when I start the machine, it will immediately travel in time and disappear from the present. He turned to the youngest of all. Give me your hand, he said.The young man put out his hand. The time traveler took it and placed it on the machine. Immediately, there was a sudden wind, and the little machine disappeared.I was certain this was not a trick, but the doctor was not so sure.Are you asking us to believe, he said, that the machine is now in a different time? Certainly! In my laboratory, a full-size machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine?Are you serious about this? the doctor asked.I have never been more serious about anything, the time traveler said, Come. We followed him to his laboratory.
