too Then one year he said to his friends I m going to go back to Hungary to visit my home town All his friends said to him We want to go with you because you often say Hungary is a beautiful country and we want to visit it The Hungarian Australian took his friends from Sydney to Rome in a big plane and then they went from Rome to Budapest in a train as they wanted to see the mountains and the villages and the towns They stayed in Budapest nearly a week and they liked it very much One day they went to the zoo in Budapest and saw two kangaroos there These Australians were very happy because

today s world almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people s health However not all the persons know that noise is also a kind of pollution and that is harmful to human health too People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf Today however scientists believe that 10 percent of workers in Britain are being deafened by the noise where they work Many of the workers who print newspapers and books and who weave 织 cloth become deaf Quite a few people living near airports also become deaf Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65 year old persons for these young people like to listen to pop music and most of pop music is a kind of noise Besides noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people s life difficult and unpleasant or even make people ill or even drive them mad It is said that a continuous noise of over 85 decibels 分贝 can cause deafness Now the governments in many countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels In China the government is trying to solve not only air and water pollution problems but also noise pollution problems 45

water and noise pollution C Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need It has been shown that rats will when given a choice over a period of time prefer water with vitamins 维生素 to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles When a sweet smell was added to the vitamins enriched water the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it even after the vitamins were changed to the clear water In time 最后 however they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were In experiments babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a room with a wide choice of baby food before them They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating habits but that over a period of time they managed to choose a well balanced diet So in choosing food rats and babies do seem to know and act on what s best for them Clearly there is a kind of body wisdom which humans soon lose Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by old habits Some people eat foxes dogs and blackbirds while we eat cows and pigs So what people eat and how many they eat seem to be greatly influenced by what is going around them 49

drink is good for them D show the vitamins are tasteless 50 Talking about eating habits babies and rats are just like each other because A both have the wisdom to choose a balanced diet B both prefer flavored food and drink C both have the same eating habits D both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors 51 In the experiment mentioned in the second paragraph babies were A given many choices of drinks B given all kinds of baby food C placed and fed in a hospital D trained to select a balanced diet 52 According to the passage grown up people s eating habits differ from those of babies in that A they know better than babies what kinds of food are good for their health B they usually cannot say no to all kinds of delicious foods C their eating habits have much to do with the social and cultural customs 文化习俗 D they have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns D Basic Study Manual Hardcover 37 50 Future success depends on the ability to learn Here are the answers to the
