like tofu, sushi and even green tea are now familiar and can be found easily out of japan. as a national cuisine(烹饪), thanks to many social as well as political changes, japanese food has greatly developed over the past few centuries. in ancient times, when much of the traditional cuisine was influenced by korean and chinese cultures, japanese cuisine slowly changed with the start of the medieval(中世纪的)period, which brought along with it new tastes.with the coming of the modern age, a great many changes took place and the japanese cuisine was influenced greatly by western culture. however, the traditional japanese food of today is still very like what existed toward the end of the 19th century. this would mean that a large part of the japanese cuisine includes those foods whose cooking methods and ingredients(原料)have been introduced from other cultures, but which have since then been experimented with and developed by the japanese themselves.the thing about japanese food is that you either will love it or will completely look down upon it. with traditional japanese food, there is no such thing as an in-between. however, chances are that if you hate japanese food, then you probably havent even tasted real japanese food or you simply havent given yourself the chance to like it. unlike other cuisines, japanese food is not something that you will appreciate after having only a bite. like wines and cigars, japanese food needs time to be liked.46. after reading the whole passage, we learn that this passage mainly .a. advises us to eat healthy food is so healthyb. explains why japanese food is so healthyc. introduces some famous traditional japanese foodd. tells us something about traditional japanese food47. what does the writer mean by saying

period.b. japanese food has been greatly influenced by other cultures.c. the traditional japanese food of today tastes totally different from that in the past.d. korean food is also one of the healthiest foods in the world.49. the last paragraph suggests that .a. healthy food usually doesnt taste goodb. not everyone likes japanese foodc. some people are crazy about japanese foodd. its very easy to tell whether the food is real japanese food or not50. in the writers opinion, japanese food .a. is not as good as people thinkb. sometimes tastes really terriblec. is worth tasting a second timed. tastes as good as chinese foodc starting a new school term is always exciting. it is a chance to see all of your friends again. but most exciting of all, the new term is an opportunity to take up new hobbies. as you know, it is common in britain for students to take up new hobbies after the christmas holidays. promising to begin something new is a common new year resolution for many school teenagers. most schools offer different kinds of hobby classes. students take them in their free periods or after school. some classes you have to pay for and others are free of charge. for example, i once took a free wednesday evening gymnastics class that my school offered. but when i learnt how to play the drum my parents had to pay for the lesson, and they did so, like most parents, without any complaint. the most popular extra classes at my school were piano lessons and drama club: both classes offered exams students could take. because the extra classes may take up much time of the students, students with many hobbies sometimes felt more stressed than those without any. but they could enjoy their life better than those who didnt foster (培养) any hobbies at school. for example, they could build up good friendship with the persons who shared the common interest with them. most important of all, the students with hobbies left school with many extra skills. frankly speaking, i havent continued any of the hobbies i began at school. but i have never regretted taking them. after all, my best friend today is someone whom i met in my gymnastics class. the reason why we are still keeping in close touch with each other is that we have much in common.51. the first paragraph suggests that its childrens nature . a. to value friendship b. to make a promise easily c. to copy others

children.d i have forgotten the name of an old lady who was a customer on my paper route when i was a twelve-year-old boy back in 1954. yet it seems like just yesterday that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness that i can only hope to pass on to someone else someday. on a saturday afternoon, a friend and i were throwing rocks onto the roof of the old ladys house. i found a smooth rock and sent it. the stone headed straight for a small window on the old ladys back door. at the sound of broken glass, we took off from the old ladys yard. i was too scared about getting caught that first night. however, a few days later when i was sure that i hadnt been discovered, i started to feel guilty for her misfortune. i decided to save my paper delivery money, and in three weeks i had the seven dollars that i thought would cover the cost of her window. i put the money in an envelope with a note explaining that i was sorry for breaking her window. then i put the envelope through the letter slot in her door. my soul felt redeemed (救赎) and i couldnt wait for the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old ladys eyes. the next day, i. handed the old lady her paper. she thanked me for the paper and said, here, i have something for you. it was a bag of cookies. i thanked her and ate the cookies as i continued my route. after several cookies, i felt an envelope and pulled it out

phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the tv, or her boyfriend, she said the phone. personally, i could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology. point 1 the telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. my daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. if the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about? point 2 the mobile phone means that we are never alone. ! the mobile saved my life, says crystal johnstone. she had an accident in her volvo on the a45 between otley and skipton. trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue. point 3 the mobile removes our secret. it allows marketing manager of haba deutsch, carl nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time
