It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theaters 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the buildings end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed proper. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modem theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theaters location (位置) was also a reason. “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were given up because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.28. In what way was yesterdays cleanup at the Plaza special?A. It made room for new equipment.B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.C. It was done with the help of the audience.D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.29. Why was The Last Picture Stow put on? A. It was an all-time classic.B. It was about the history of the town. C. The audience requested it.D. The theater owner found it suitable. 30. What will probably happen to the building?A. It will b& repaired.B. It will be turned into a museum.C. It will be knocked down.D. It will be sold to the city government.31. What can we infer about the audience?A. They are disappointed with Bradford.B. They are sad to say goodbye to the old theater.C. They are supportive of the city officials.D. They are keen to have a shopping center.DWhy do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who eat rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed (挤进) between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Dont Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of (尽管) all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity (肥胖)or extreme overweight among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young refuse older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% and is growing.32. In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.33. This text is mainly the relationship between .A. Americans and the FrenchB. life style and obesityC. children and adultsD. fast food and overweight34. How is the text mainly developed?A. By comparisonB. By spaceC. By timeD. By importance35. Where does this text probably come from?A, A TV interviewB. A food advertisementC. A health reportD. A book review 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处得最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。“Why is life worth living?” If you ask this question, you will get different answers. 36 But we have put together a few reasons from different people as to why life is worth living.Learning.
