clever girl.keep it up!”marthas first post featured a lunch consisting of a pizza slice, one potato croquette(炸丸子), some corn and a small cupcake. she gave it a health rating of 4/10. she wrote, “im a growing kid and i need to concentrate all afternoon and i cant do it on 1 croquette. do any of you think you could?” in a recent interview, martha told the bbc that her school lunches are usually “a bit small and sometimes theyre not very nice either”.after marthas blog, her dad met with the school council(委员会), which announced that all students would be allowed unlimited servings of fruit, vegetables and bread. things seemed to change afterward. “for the first time ever i have seen at lunch cherry tomatoes, carrot and cucumber,” martha wrote.school lunches in the us are also a subject of heavy attention, especially from first lady michelle obama who asks to improve american kids diet and exercise habits.()26. martha payne posted the photos of her school meals online to . a. express her great angerb. become famous around the worldc. improve her school mealsd. get attention from the school council()27. according to the second paragraph, we can know . a. neverseconds was started by martha aloneb. jamie oliver from media supported martha a lotc. martha fails to give her lunches 10 scores for tasted. marthas blog has attracted much attention beyond scotland()28. what can be known about marthas first post?a. it has been viewed for 1 million times. b. cherry tomatoes were included.c. it appeared online at the end of may.d. the small lunch was mentioned in it.()29. the school lunch was not improved until . a. bbc interviewed marthab. martha posted her first lunch onlinec. marthas dad went to the school councild. school lunches were valued in the us()30. about what will the passage be followed by the paragraphs?a. american school lunches. b. the health of school foods.c. new rules for school lunch. d. more attention to school meals.bwearing ties was originally the mark of britains most powerful classes, which made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect. and that led it to be adopted by a much larger tribe-the business tribe.you can not wear a tie if you work with machinery. so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used your brain to make a living, rather than your hands. it showed you were serious. it showed you were a professional. it meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. it was just impossible to take seriously a man who didnt wear a piece of colored silk around his neck.this is how millions of people came to be wearing ties across the world. they are part of the uniform of business.“ties offer a point of indifference,” says john milne, head of the british guide of tie makers. “they give a chance to say something about their own personality.”so if you happen to meet a man with a very brightly colored tie, there is a good chance that he is the office joker. there is also a good chance that he will be wearing brightly colored socks.is there a future for ties? the signs are not promising. tie wearing seems to be rare among the new bread of entrepreneurs(创业者) in the internet and new technology industries. many political leaders, including former british prime minister tony blair, now go without ties. this shows they are men of the people-but not the people wearing ties.up until around 1960, it was common for men across the western world to wear hats as part of their business uniform. that changed with the election of john f. kennedy to the presidency of the united states. kennedy never wore a hat-in fact his nickname was “hatless jack”. seeing that the most powerful man in the world did not have to wear a hat, millions of other men decided that they did not have to, either. hats simply vanished across the western world. perhaps “tieless tony”(former uk prime minister tony blair) will have the same effect as “hatless jack”.()31. in britain, ties were first used as a sign to show a persons . a. personalityb. social positionc. wearing styled. favorite hobby()32. in the business world, wearing a tie was necessary because . a. it showed you used your brainb. it showed you got a good salaryc. it showed you were an employerd. it showed you were well-equipped()33. the underlined word “vanished” in this passage may mean “”. a. soldb. washedc. appearedd. disappeared()34. the writer may hold the opinion that . a. blair is the best leader in the worldb. kennedy is the best leader in the worldc. millions of people will go to work without a tied. people will wear
