It means the food you eat will become part of you. Many experts useitto tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.“When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts.”said Brain Meier, a scientist from the study team. “Taste is something we experience(体验) every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character and behavior depending on their taste.”In one of their experiments(实验), college students were asked questions about their characters, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate helped other people in need, but those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more possibly to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.The result of experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）What does the underlined word “it” refer to(指代) ?A . The English saying.B . The eating habit.C . The American team.D . The sweet food.（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people _.A . overweightB . excitedC . friendlyD . relaxed（3）Which kind of people may be less helpful?A . The ones who like ice-cream.B . The ones who prefer chocolate.C . The ones who eat many cookies.D . The ones who eat many chips.（4）According to the passage, which of the followings is NOT true?A . Some scientists discovered something new about eating sweet food.B . Kids are told to keep away from sweet food to be fat.C . What you put in your mouth will show your character.D . If people want to be kind or friendly, they can try some sweet food.（5）What does the passage mainly talk about?A . Scientists asked college students questions about their characters.B . People who like sweet food are more willing to help others.C . Scientists told college students not to eat sweet food.D . Peoples character has nothing to do with their taste.13. （6分） What would happen if you tried to blow a soap bubble in freezing weather? Would it freeze solid(固体) and fall to the ground? Would you have to hit it to break it? These questions happened to me on a cold winter day. It was too cold to play in the snow, but it was a perfect time to experiment with blowing frozen bubbles.To blow frozen bubbles, I used dishwashing soap and a drop of glycerin（甘油） to make it even better. I chose a place out of the wind, and blew bubbles the same way I always do. I watched to see what would happen. Heres what I learned.If the temperature is low enough, the skin of the bubbles frosts over (结霜), becoming cloudy instead of clear. And what about those rainbow swirls（旋转） you see in soap bubbles? The rainbow colors stay even when the bubbles frost, but they dont swirl anymore. The bubbles still stay in the air. They dont fall to the ground any faster than they would on a warm summer day.When these frozen bubbles break, they dont turn into small water drops as summer bubbles do. They turn into flashing rainbow confetti（碎屑） and move slowly to the ground. Sometimes a frozen bubble will roll across the snow without breaking. If nothing disturbs the bubble, it may stay there for a long time. Sometimes I could catch a bubble and hold it until the heat of my hand made it pop.I learned another thing about blowing frozen bubbles. Its so interesting that I want to try it again next year.（1）It is the perfect time to blow frozen bubbles on a _day.A . cold winterB . warm springC . hot summerD . sunny autumn（2）When the frozen bubbles break, _.A . they make a big soundB . they turn into small dropsC . they fall to the ground like rainD . they become rainbow confetti（3）The purpose of the passage is _.A . to learn how to do a science experimentB . to show the experiment of blowing frozen bubblesC . to discover games that are fun to play in the snowD . to invent a new kind of soap that makes stronger bubbles14. （10分） I wonder whether there is any girl or boy who does not like to see a rainbow in the sky. It is so beautiful.There is a story, saying that whenever you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a pot of gold. Of course it is not true. You could not find the pot of gold or its end. No matter how far you run, it always seems far away.A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower. It is only the effect of light shining on raindrops. The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colours which we see. It is called a rainbow perhaps because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow（弓).That is why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky. We see a rainbow only when there is rain in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds.Every rainbow has many colours in the same order. The first or the top colour is always red, and the next comes orange, then yellow, and last of all, blue. A rainbow is indeed one of the wonders of nature.（1）Children like rainbows because .A . they are beautifulB . they are like bowsC . they can find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbowD . they are good to crops（2）We cannot feelwith our hands.A . a pot of goldB . a flowerC . a rainbowD . a raindrop（3）We can see a rainbow.A . when it is raining heavilyB . when it is snowingC . when it is cloudyD . when it is becomes fine shortly after raining（4）Which of the following statements is NOT true?A .

A rainbow is one of the wonders of nature.（5）The first colour of a rainbow is always .A . yellowB . redC . greenD . blue15. （8分）根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life.

During World War, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes.

Have you ever searched for Wi-Fi when you are at restaurants or hotels? The answers will probably be Yes. Most of us want Wi-Fi everywhere as if we cant live without it. But we can only use free Wi-Fi in some public places. We still have to spend some money accessing(连接)the Internet at most time. Here comes a piece of good news.A rich, powerful organization in the USA called the Media Development Investment Fund (MDIF) has decided to change the age of online computing (计算) completely by giving free Wi-Fi to every person on Earth. They will send up hundreds of satellites into low Earth orbit(轨道)in 2015.This is because they have made a survey and found that only 60% of the worlds population have been able to get information on the Internet. And this is also because many countries are unable to offer people the necessary infrastructure(基础设施)to access the
