trying to remove some food products from the shelves So far 580 products have been recalled Last week Sudan s Embassy in the United Kingdom asked the Food Standards Agency FSA for clarification of the

and the poisonous dye We want to keep an eye on every detail and avoid any misunderstanding there she said Our embassy to Britain asked them how the dye got that name and whether the dye had something to do with our country But they told us there was no relationship The FSA an independent food security watchdog in Britain received a letter from the Sudanese embassy last week They asked us why the dye is named Sudan however we also do not know how it got the name she said People found the dye in 1883 and gave it the name Nobody knows the reason and we cannot give any explanation before we find out Sudan dyes which include Sudan 1 to 4 are red dyes used for colouring oils waxes petrol and shoe and floor polishes They are classified as carcinogens 5 by the International Agency for Research on

produced in Sudan B The dye has something to do with the country named Sudan C Nobody is sure of the origin of the name D Many foods produced in Sudan contain the dye 41 We can infer from the passage

be closed down 42 Which of the following is the best title A Keep away from Sudan1 B No Sudan 1 dye links to the country C How Sudan1 dye got its name D Pay attention to the food safety C C A newly published study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another like a disease Researchers used information from the Framingham Study which began in 1948 The Framingham Study gathers information about physical and mental health personal behavior and diet At first the study involved about 5 000 people in the American state of Massachusetts Now more than 12 000 individuals are taking part Information from the Framingham Study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person So can behaviors like littering and the ability to stop smoking University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely In fact a friend of a lonely person was 52 more likely to develop feelings of loneliness A friend of that person was 25 more likely The researchers say this shows that a person could indirectly be affected by someone s loneliness The effect was strongest among friends Neighbors were the second most affected group The effect was weaker on husbands and wives and brothers and sisters The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men The New York Times newspaper reports that on average people experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent or two and a half fewer lonely days Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping 6 difficulties The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it The study suggests that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness They can do this by helping individuals they know who may be experiencing loneliness The result can be helpful to the whole social group 43 What is TRUE about the Framingham Study A It was only conducted in 1948 B It involves more than 12 000 participants C It was led by John Cacioppo D It showed that any behavior could spread 44 Which statement about the spread of loneliness is true A The spreading effect was the second strongest among friends B No spreading effect was found on husbands and wives C Women are more likely to be affected than men D Brothers are more easily affected than neighbors 45 What is the main idea of the passage A Actions should be taken to help lonely people B People feel lonely for many reasons C Ways to fight against loneliness D Lonely people can affect others D When a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard I was one of the first to go out there and pet it I hadn t touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years I spent at least 20 minutes knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around relaxed What he was expressing outwardly I was feeling inwardly It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care Over the next few days there were other prisoners responding to the cat Every yard period a group of prisoners gathered there They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat These were guys you wouldn t usually find talking to each other Several times I saw an officer in the group not chasing people away but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape People said that the cat came to the right place He s getting treated like a king This was true but as 1 watched 1 was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us There was a lot of talk about what s wrong with prisons in America We need more programs We need more psychologists 心理学家 or treatment of various kinds Some may even talk about making prisons more kind But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness Not receive it but give it After more than two decades here I know kindness is not a value that s encouraged It s often seen as a weakness 7 Instead the culture encourages keeping your head down minding your own business and never letting yourself be weak The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here By simply saying I need some help here he did something important for us He needed us And we needed to be needed I believe we all
