You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1:Butter is bad for youbut so is margarine. Coffee raises blood pressure, but may protect against cancer. Alcohol is okay, but only if its wine.The confusing studies on what it is safe to eat and drink are enough to make it impossible for anyone to understand what is “good food”. Take the margarine-butter debate for example. Studies that linked fatfound mostly in animal products such as meat and butterwith cancer and heart disease sent millions rushing to buy margarine. But then another study found that people who ate a lot of margarine also had high levels of heart disease. For those who have a firm faith in science, this seems to be the end of the world. But many doctors point out that their advice has never been conflicting. For years, and in various countries, they have recommended eating less fat.People in Western countries such as Britain and the United States get about 40 percent of their calories from fat. Doctors say this should be around 30 or even 25 per cent. “We must try to reduce total fat,” said Dr. Robert Richardson of the University of Edinburgh, who has been studying the effects of fat on human health for years.“We need to go to more such food as bread, in particular brown bread, and more fruit and vegetables.” Fresh produce may not be so safe, either. Last month the British Government advised consumers to peel their pears before eating, while many Americans briefly avoided apples because of fears over an insect killing chemical. But Dr. Arnold, a British scientist, said any risk of such poisoning would be outweighed by the costs of not eating plant foods. “ On balance, if you were to put both risks against each other, the advice has to be eating as much fruit and vegetable daily as possible,” she said. In general, doctors conclude, variety truly is the best policy. “The general advice is pretty much the same advice that doctors have been talking about for a long timea varied diet, a mixture of foods and not too much of any one,” Arnold said.36. What do the confusing studies tell us?A) Both butter and margarine may lead to cancer and heart disease. B) Coffee is better than other drinksC) Only wine does good to your health. D) Foods may have different effects.37. The British Government advised consumers to peel their pears before eating because .A) it found that there were insects on the pearsB) it wanted consumers to avoid insect killing chemicals C) the skin of pears was found to be bad for peoples healthD) it was a bad habit not to peel them. 38. The word “outweigh” ( Para.9) means “ ”.A) to be heavier than is usual or allowed B) to be more dangerous thanC) to be greater in value or importance than D) to be considered less important than 39. What can we infer from the passage?A) The studies are somewhat conflicting B) Science provides answer to all our questionsC) We should peel our pears before eating D) We should eat plant foods despite the risk of poisoning40. What should we do in order to keep a balanced diet?A) We should have a variety of foods B) We should eat less butterC) We should eat as much fruit and vegetable daily as possibleD) We should eat such food as bread, in particular brown bread.Task 2:The holiday shopping season got off to a flying start over the Thanksgiving (感恩节) weekend in the U.S. Retailers (零售商) attracted discount-hungry consumers with specials (特价商品) of televisions, DVD players and other gifts. Discounters like Wal-Mart and Target had the greatest success, offering customers early bird specials, while major department stores and clothing chains only met modest sales goals. Online sales were also strong.“It was as expected. It wasnt a source of great prosperity, but it was a good start,” said Nevill, a man in a US retail consulting firm. He said, “One thing we often heard was that only things marked down (降价) were selling. Consumers want a bargain, especially around the holiday.” Shoppers did seem to like the many markdowns. A lady in the State of Connecticut said, “Ive never seen so many sales. I feel like a kid in a candy store.”Nevill estimated that discounters had a 4% gain over last years Thanksgiving figure, while sales at department stores and mall-based clothing chains were up 2% for the weekend. However, the Thanksgiving weekend is not necessarily a good way to judge how retailers will be successful for the season. Over the past few years, the weekend accounted for less than 10% of sales.Online merchants also had a good weekend. Sales were up 61% last Friday, compared to the day after Thanksgiving a year ago. 41. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, people bought a lot more than usual because _A) Wal-Mart and Target offered birds as giftsB) shopping was the major weekend activityC) people had time to go shopping onlineD) they were allowed special discounts42. Retailers have the experience that consumers seem to _.A) feel eager to buy discounted goodsB) be hungry for special kinds of goodsC) like to buy new DVD players as giftsD) be interested in major department stores43. From the context we know that Wal-Mart and Target are the names of two _.A) food storesB) large retailersC) online servicesD) clothing chains44. By saying “I feel like a kid in a candy store,” the lady in Connecticut probably means that _.A) she has difficulty choosing from such a wide variety of goodsB) she cannot decide whether she should buy some candyC) she is quite interested in buying candyD) she recalls her happy childhood days45. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A) Online sales were 61% higher than retailers.B) Online merchants had an average weekend sale.C) Retailers lost much profit because of the discounts they offered.D) Retailers had an increase in sales in the Thanksgiving weekend.Task 3:When a rare disease ALD threatened to kill the four-year-old boy Lorenzo, his parents refused to give up hope. Doctors explained that there was no cure for ALD, and that he would probably die within three years. But Lorenzos parents set out to prove the doctors wrong. The parents devoted themselves to keeping their son alive and searching for a cure. But doctors and the families of other ALD patients often refused to take them seriously. They thought the efforts to find a cure were a waste of time, and drug companies werent interested in supporting research into such a rare disease.However, the parents still refused to give up and spent every available hour in medical libraries and talking to anyone who would help. Through trial and error (反复试验), they finally created a cure from ingredients (调料) commonly found in the kitchen. The cure, named “Lorenzos Oil”, saved the boys life. Despite the good results, scientists and doctors remained unconvinced. They said there was no real evidence that the oil worked and that the treatment was just a theory. As a result, some families with ALD children were reluctant to try it. Finally, the boys father organized an international study to test the oil. After ten years of trials, the answer is: the oil keeps ALD children healthy.46. Doctors said that Lorenzo might die within three years because _ . A) they had never treated the disease before B) Lorenzo was too young to be cured C) no cure had been found for ALD D) ALD was a rare disease47. The families of other ALD patients thought that _.A) the research for the new cure would cost too much moneyB) the efforts of Lorenzos parents were a waste of timeC) Lorenzos parents would succeed in finding a cureD) Lorenzos oil was a real cure for ALD48. Scientists and doctors believed that Lorenzos Oil _ . A) was really effective B) was a success story C) only worked in theory D) would save the boys life49. Lorenzos father organized an international study to _. A) test Lorenzos Oil B) get financial support C) find a cure for the disease D) introduce the cure worldwide50. From the passage we can conclude that _.A) doctors remain doubtful of the effectiveness of the cureB) many ALD patients still refuse to use the oilC) various cures have been found for ALDD) the oil really works as a cure for ALDPart IV Translation （ 20% ）Directions: This part numbered 51 through 56 is to test your ability to translate Chinese into English and
