winter.dit was shaped through volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.bat thirteen, i was diagnosed（诊断） with kind of attention disorder（紊乱，失调）. it made school difficult for me. when everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, i could not.in my first literature class, mrs.smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. i raised my hand right away and said,“mrs.smith, you see, the doctor said i have attention problems. i might not be able to do it.”she glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”i tried, but i didnt finish the reading when the bell rang. i had to take it home.in the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. it was about a blind person, louis braille. he lived in a time when the blind couldnt get much education. but louis didnt give up. instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots（点）, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.wasnt i the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? my thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. i completed the task within 40 minutes. indeed, i was not different from others; i just needed a quieter place. if louis could find his way out of his problems, why should i ever give up.i didnt expect anything when i handled in my paper to mrs.smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day with an“a” on it. at the bottom of the paper were these words:“ see what you can do when you keep trying”.25. the author didnt finish the reading in class because.a. he was new to the class b. he was tired of literaturec. he had an attention disorder d. he wanted to take the task home26. what do we know about louis braille from the passage?a. he had

difficulties with efforts.d. everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.corganic food（有机食品） is very safe and healthy not just for our body but also the environment. it is free from harmful chemicals that may affect us. it also strengthens our immune system(免疫系统). however, compared with conventional food, which is more common, organic food is much more expensive. there are a lot of reasons. growing organic food takes a lot of effort and money and shops selling organic food are using the popularity of organic food to sell it at a much higher price.the number of organic crops is smaller than that of conventional crops. the production costs are very high in organic farming. many farmers dont use herbicides （除草剂）or pesticides （杀虫剂）so they have to get rid of the weeds and pests in the fields all by hand, which adds to the cost of organic food.also, conventional agriculture（农业） is heavily supported by the government in terms of taxes, while organic farming gets no help from the government at all. whats more, the farmers cant use sewage sludge(下水道污泥) and chemical fertilizers（肥料）, which are cheap to buy.another reason is that the demand is much higher than the supply. while there are many people who are trying organic food, there are only a limited number of farmers who produce it. the output (产量) of organic food is low while the transport and packaging costs are the same, which lead to its higher price.organic farming requires a lot of things that are not needed in conventional farming. but if the demand becomes high enough, the government might one day help organic farming to lessen the costs.29. which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “conventional” in paragraph 1?a. simple b. real c. usual d. similar.30. we can learn from the passage that _.a. organic farmers use more expensive materials.b. a large number of farmers produce organic food.c. the government will soon help organic farming.d. organic farmers also use herbicides or pesticides.31. what is mainly discussed in this passage?a. how to grow organic food. b. the benefits of organic food.c. organic food and the environment. d. why organic food costs more.dyour house may have an effect on your figure(体型). experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off . you can make your environment work for you instead of against you. here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.open the curtains and turn up the lights. dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when theyre in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . if your home doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.mind the colors. research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites（食欲，胃口）. in one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed （消耗）33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. so when its time to repaint, go blue.dont forget the clock-or the radio. people who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） per meal than those who rush through their meals. begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, and while youre at it, actually sit down to eat. if you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. it makes you less likely to rush through a meal.downsize the dishes, big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. we eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. when we choose a large spoon （汤匙）over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入） jumps by 14 percent. and well pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.32. the text is especially helpful for those who care about_.a. their home comfort b. their body shapec. house
