the 40 for my friends!”said ben. we all sat down and looked 41 at each otherwhat did he 42 to?ben returned with four bowls of hot soup.“its a 43 of carrots , potatoes and tomatoes,”said ben. the next 44 was also a little strange in that we didnt quite know what it was again. its just 45 mixture of vegetables.as we ate we chatted and finally the 46 turned back to what we were eating.“was there a recipe（食谱）for this,” asked marina ,“or did you 47 it up?”ben put his fork down. “what i cooked 48 what i could find.”marina was surprised.“but you can find anything in supermarkets these days.”“but theres 49 choice in what you can find 50 supermarkets.” he replies. 51 that we had all finished the food , ben decided to tell the truth. he had read recently that supermarkets usually 52 away 5 percent of their food every day. so ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. there he found food that was slightly out of 53 , boxes of throw-away vegetables and fruit.so ben had 54 provided a decent(不错的) meal for his friends , and made us away of the fact that there are many poor people who need the food , but the amount of food thrown away is enough to 55 millions of people.36.

attention to the way words are used. lets look at the words about animals and plants. most expressions in chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative meanings. but in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. in english, people use the dog to describe positive actions. for example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. and “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. to describe a persons serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. the word “dog-tired” means very tired. however, chinese love cats very much. but in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel. there are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.the rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both china and some western countries. people think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. and the rose is the national flower of england, america and many other countries.the words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. we can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.56. “every dog has its day.” means “_”.a. everybody in the world is lucky. b. each person lives his own way of life.c. if one works hard, hes sure to succeed. d. everybody has a time in life to be lucky.57. western people usually use “cat” to refer to “_”.a. a tired person b. a brave man c. a homeless person d. an unkind woman58. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. words show differences in culture. b. chinese people prefer dogs to cats.c. western people think cats to be good friends. d. rose is the national flower of all western countries.59. whats the best title for the passage？a. negative and positive words b. different countries have different culturec. rose means the same in chinese and englishd. what dog and cat mean in english and chinese b.children are losing the ability to play properly because they are being given too many toys and games, according to new research.the studies show that children, especially those under five, are often overwhelmed(被压倒) and actually play less than those with fewer toys. it may even harm their development. the studies show that giving children too many toys or toys of the wrong type can actually be doing them harm. they get overwhelmed and cannot concentrate on anything long enough to learn from it.the conclusions have been backed up by british research looking at children with relatively fewer toys, whose parents spend more time reading, singing or playing with them. it showed such children surpass(胜过) youngsters from richer backgrounds, even those who could use computers.some parents notice the ill effect early. orhan ismail, a researcher saw a change for the worse in cameron, his 10-month-old son, after he was given a lot of toys last christmas.ismail said, “ if there are too many toys in front of him, he will just keep flitting around them and then end up going off and finding something like a slipper to play with. now we just get out one or two toys and hide the rest in a box.”alexander and her husband also decided to limit the toys their 6 daughters play with. she believed many toys restrict childrens imaginations. she said, “ a barbie can only work as a barbie. but a cardboard box can become anything. the only limitations are in the childs mind.”experts hesitate to put a figure on the number of toys children should have, but many believe two dozen is enough for children of preschool age.60. from which paragraph we can learn that “british research group has been in favour of the conclusion”?a. paragraph 3. b. paragraph 4. c. paragraph 5. d. paragraph 6.61. in the writers opinion, a barbie _.a. can attract more attention from children than a cardboard box b. can work more than a barbie c. may become anything else such as a cardboardd. may keep children from further imaginations62. which of the following is true about toys given to children?a. too many toys will help children develop wide interests.b. one or two toys at a time will help children concentrate.c. only wrong types of toys do harm to children.d. the proper number of toys given to the children depends on their ages.63. it may not be a good idea to _.a. spend more time reading or playing with childrenb. choose right types of toys for childrenc. ask experts for the exact number of necessary toys d. put out one or two toys and hide the rest cto get an extra 14 years of life, dont smoke, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly and drink alcohol in a proper amountthat is according to a study published this monday in the public library of science medicine journalafter tracking more than 20,000 people aged 45 to 79 years in the united kingdom from about 1993 to 2007, kay-tee khaw of the university of cambridge and his colleagues found that people who adopted these four healthy habits lived all average of 14 years longer than those who didnt“weve known for a long time that these behaviors are good things to do, but weve not seen this benefit before, ”said susan jebb, head of nutrition and health at britains medical research council“the benefit was also seen regardless of whether or not people were fat and what social class they came from”study participants scored a point each for not smoking, regular physical activity, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and moderate alcohol intakepublic health experts said they hoped the study would inspire governments to introduce policies helping people to adopt these changesbut because the study only observed people rather than testing specific changes, it would be impossible to conclude that people who suddenly adopted these healthy behaviors would surely gain 14 years“we cant say that any person could gain 14 years by doing these things, ”said drtim armstrong, a physical activity expert at the world health organization“the 14 years is an average across the population of whats theoretically possible”“most people know that things like a good diet matter and that smoking isnt good for them, ”susan jebb said“we need to work on providing people with much more practical support to help them change”64which of the following doesnt belong to the four healthy habits?a. eat five servings of fruits and vegetables every dayb. do proper exercise in the morning every dayc. drink alcohol in the proper amount every dayd. have a cigarette before going to bed every day65we can learn from the passage that a. susan jebb did not take part in the studyb. the study observed people as well as tested specific changesc. theres no need for people under 45 to adopt these good habitsd. only those from first class can benefit from these healthy behaviors66what can be inferred from the passage?a. all the people are well aware of the harm of their bad habitsb. people aged 45 to 70 have bad habits in the united kingdomc. governments should take measures to help people change their bad habitsd. people have adopted the four healthy habits after knowing theyre good67what would be the best title for this passage?a. smoking and drinking cuts you 14 years b. how to live a much healthier lifec. healthy habits may give extra 14 years d. how to make your life longer than othersd.ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recyclingrecycling in the home is very important of coursehowever, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we needwe are dealing with the results of that overconsumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first placethe total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005it now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the ukin many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboardtoo much packaging is doing serious damage to the environmentthe uk, for example, is running out of it for burying this unnecessary wasteif such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effectrecycling helps, but the process itself uses energythe solution is not to produce such items in the first placefood waste is a serious problem, tootoo many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they needhowever, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for examplebut this is not just about supermarketsit is about all of uswe have learned to associate packaging with qualitywe have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor qualitythis is especially true of foodbut it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more pac
