I did not have the 36 or energy to carry out my traditional Christmas decorating and baking activities. What was the point, anyway? It was going to be a 37 Christmas after all. 38 , the neighborly nature of west Nebraska residents started to trickle (陆续来临) in. There was a 39 on the door one evening. It was Jeffs new colleague, John Smith, and his wife, Phyllis. The Smiths had stopped by to 40 us to town with a loaf of homemade bread. They pointed out a 41 on the porch (门廊). Apparently the doorbell wasnt working in the cold snowy weather and we had 42 a visit from the Browns, our across-the-street neighbors, who brought us a Christmas card and more Christmas cookies. The 43 feelings brought by these thoughtful gestures lasted longer than the food.As Jeff and I were clearing pre-Christmas 44 from our driveway, Ernie Guzman came over from next door to 45 us to dig out. Then, we received an invitation to 46 a Christmas Eve meal with our neighbors, Ernie and Nancy Sommer, and their 47 a 90-year-old lady, who also had no family in the immediate area with whom to spend the holiday. Our Christmas Eve was quite merry, thanks to our 48 . Our Christmas morning 49 was special, thanks to the Smiths gift of bread. I was so 50 for these gestures of welcome, especially during the holidays.This year, we were again unable to be with our families for Christmas. The 51 and work schedules just made things too difficult. 52 that sense of Christmas isolation (孤立) all too well, we decided to try to round up some other folks who were 53 in the holidays. Lonely people are all around us, but most of us 54 notice them. Just take a look around you. Sometimes, the smallest 55 gesture can make a world of difference.36.

The UNs Food and Agriculture Organisation has estimated that meat production accounts for nearly a fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions. These are produced during the production. For example, ruminants (反刍动物), particularly cows, give off a gas called methane, which is 23 times more effective as a global warming agent than CO2.Pachauri can expect some opposite responses from the food industry to his advice, though last night he was given unexpected support by Masterchef presenter and restaurateur John Torode. “I have a little bit and enjoy it,” said Torode. “Too much for any person is bad. But theres a bigger issue here: where the meat comes from. If we all bought British and stopped buying imported food, wed save a huge amount of carbon emissions.”Professor Robert Watson, the chief scientific adviser for the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs, said government could help educate people about the benefits of eating less meat, but it should not regulate. “Eating less meat would help, theres no question about that,” Watson said.However, Chris Lamb, head of marketing for pig industry group BPEX, said the meat industry had been unfairly targeted and was working hard to find out which activities had the biggest environmental impact and reduce them. “Some ideas were contradictory,” he said. “For example, one solution to emissions from cattle and other animals was to keep them indoors, but this would damage animal welfare. Climate change is a very young science and our view is there are a lot of simple solutions being proposed.”56. What is directly related to global warming?A. Consumption of meat. B. Growth of cattle. C. Methane from ruminants. D. Processing of meat.57. Who holds a view opposite to the others in the passage? A. Rajendra Pachauri.B. John Torode. C. Robert Watson. D. Chris Lamb. 58. It is implied in the passage that _. A. we should try to keep away from cattleB. ruminants should not be left outdoors C. the meat industry will soon close down D. we must do our duty to save the earth59. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Less meat, slower global warmingB. More animals, more greenhouse gas C. Less imported food, better our environmentD.

Moreover, it finds, the caloric fallout of not paying attention to what were eating doesnt necessarily end when a meal is over. Rose Cooper from England, and her colleagues gathered 22 men and an equal number of women for an experiment. Each person dined alone, continuously receiving nine small shares of food items. These ranged from cheese twists and potato chips to carrots, cherry tomatoes and sandwiches or sausage rolls. Because the goal was to test the potential impacts of distraction on fullness, the researchers randomly assigned half of the participants to eat in front of a computerand to gain as many wins as possible at the “card” game. Everyone else was told to focus on the sensory qualities of their meal. According to their instructions, the participants ate all of the food given to them. Yet people who played a computer game during lunch found their meal less filling than the mindful eaters had. Game players also swallow down twice as many cookies, almost an hour later, when they were allowed all the dessert they wanted (in the name of a taste test). The British scientists present their findings in the February American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.The real question is why distracted eating should impact snacking. It appears, the scientists say, that memory plays some tricky role in how we register what we eat and the degree to which it satisfies. Interestingly, eight years ago, Britta Barkeling of Huddinge University in Stockholm and her colleagues reported somewhat related findings. Their 18 overweight subjects had no choice other than to get rid of everything but lunch, on one daybecause they were blindfolded. Compared to a day when they could view what they were dining on, these people consumed only three quarters as many calories. Yet even hours afterward, they reported being no less full than on the day they had been able to see their plates.Of course dining in the dark isnt practical. And sometimes what we eat doesnt really invite our absolute attention. But there is certainly a growing mountain of data indicating that mindless eating is a waste of resources, a risk to our waistlinesand a costly threat to health. 63. Rose Cooper and her colleagues did the experiment in order to _. A. show that all the people enjoy snacks B. prove that playing computer games is harmful while diningC. find possible effects of distraction on fullnessD. test the impacts of eating snacks on different people64. Which is the most effective way to concentrate on your food when dining? A. Viewing your food. B. Blindfolding your eyes. C. Playing computer games. D. Eating by oneself.65. The reason why distracted eating influences snacking may be that _.A. you eat less in that case B. you are cheated by your memoryC. you have consumed more calories D. you digest what youve eaten faster66. We can conclude from the passage that _.A. distracted eating may damage your healthB. eating snacks will make you feel fullC. Britta became famous because of the experimentD. playing is more important than what we eatD Bobby Qualls was shopping when he received a text message: Fire on Beechmont, one-story house, child trapped inside. “I was picking out gifts for the family our engine house adopted for Christmas,” remembers Qualls, who has been fighting fires in Memphis for 24 years. “I had this sinking feeling as I got in my car and headed over.” The last time Qualls had been on Beechmont Street was to install smoke detectors (感应器) at the Bateman-Tubbs home.
