People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many peoples diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needsfolic acid.It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along. 21. A good title for this reading passage is_.A. Popeye the SailorB. The Truth About SpinachC.A Mistake with NumbersD. Folic Acid Makes You Strong22. Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A. They thought spinach made them strong.B. They thought Popeye was funny.C. Spinach had a lot of iron. D. People liked folic acid.23. A research group told people that spinach_.A. made Popeye strong B. was a green vegetableC. had less iron than other green vegetablesD. had more iron than other green vegetables24. The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from_.A. ironB. folic acidC. spinachD. exercise25. Folic acid is _.A. something in foodB. a vegetableC. dangerous D. a certain kind of spinach（B）The proverb “Work while you work，play while you play ”is useful to people in all walks of lifeA proper and normal daily life signifies（表示）order，progress and cheerfulness School life is more or less regular，students have class hours at certain times of a day，and go to the playground after schoolMost of the school children are healthy，cheerful and progressive, because they are trained according to their properly regulated daily program Nowadays，many businessmen and officials also have office hoursDuring that time，they work very hard and think about nothing except workBut when they are free，they will go to places where they can relax themselves and have funIf they are not successful people，they may not be able to afford the time and money In short，the proverb “Work while you work，play while you play ”should be strictly observed by anyone who wishes to make his life pleasant，efficient and successfulWhen our mind is concentrated on one thing，it will surely work efficientlyIn this way，you will have time to settle other problemsIt is true that one cannot work all day longPlay is as important as workWhen you play，you will feel fresh and cheerful so that you may not be sick of your workSo if you can，give yourself enough time to playAnd always remember the proverb “Work while you work，play while you play” 26If you work all day long，you will _ Abe successful Bbe efficient Cmake progress Dget sick 27One mind will surely work efficiently if it is concentrated on _ Aone thing only Bas many things as it can Cwork and play at the same time Dseveral things 28To become a successful person，one must know how to _ Aearn more money Bget help from others Clive a healthy life Dwork and study all day CLosing a baby tooth can be fun for a kid. You can put it under your pillow and look forward to finding some money there in the morning. And then you can watch your new permanent tooth grow in its place.But if a permanent tooth falls out, thats a problem. There isnt another one under the gum(齿龈)that can replace it. Unfortunately, this happens to some older people. And if permanent teeth fall out or need to be pulled, an older person might need dentures.Dentures, known as false teeth, are a set of replacement teeth for any teeth that are missing. There are partial dentures, which take the place of only a few teeth and prevent the others from changing position. If all the teeth are gone, the person would need complete dentures, which replace every tooth in the mouth.Dentures can cause pains at first and take little time to get adjusted to. They also need special care. They should be brushed daily with a special denture brush and cleanser and soaked（浸泡） in denture solution when not in the mouth.Dentures are important for the old because, without teeth, its hard to smile, talk, and eat properly. But it can be a little weird if you see someone take out his or her dentures. It can also be strange to see someone, like a grandparent, without dentures in because he or she wont have any teeth. Try not to make fun of the person because this could cause hurt feelings.People usually lose their permanent teeth due to periodontal disease（牙周炎）, or gum disease, which is caused by bacteria that attacks the gums. Diseased gums arent strong and healthy, so teeth can get loose and fall out. Older people often have many cavities(洞)that have been filled over the years, and these fillings can weaken over time, leading to more tooth problems.29If one of your baby teeth falls out, you .Ashould have a false tooth fixed in its place Bhave to put it under your pillow at onceCwill gain a permanent tooth in future Dcan exchange it for some money30A person wearing dentures .Ashould brush them with a special denture brush every few daysBwill take a very long time to adjust himself or herself to themCwill experience unpleasant feelings at the beginning of fixing themDshould use denture solution to soak them in his or her mouth31Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?APartial dentures can prevent the remaining teeth from changing position.BOld people will find it hard to smile, talk, and eat properly without teeth.CA persons teeth will possibly get loose if diseases strike his gums.DIt is hard for a person to wear dentures if all his teeth have fallen out.32What does the underlined word “weird” mean in the fifth paragraph?AinconvenientBexcited Cuncomfortable DImpolite DBERLIN （AP） -A tiger escaped its enclosure at Cologne Zoo in western Germany on Saturday and killed a female keeper before being shot dead by the zoos director, police saidThe tiger slipped through a passage between the enclosure and a neighboring storage building, where it fatally attacked the 43-year-old keeper, said police spokesman Stefan KirchnerIt appears the gate wasnt properly shut, Kirchner told The Associated PressThe zoo was evacuated and a SWAT （特警） team was called in, police saidBut before it arrived the zoos director managed to kill the tiger by climbing onto the storage building and shooting it through a skylight using a rifleKirchner said it was unlikely that members of the public had witnessed the incident, This is the darkest day of my life, the zoos director, Theo Pagel, was quoted as saying by Cologne newspaper ExpressThe paper said on its website that the Siberian tiger was a 4-year-old male called tltai that came to Cologne Zoo from an animal park in EnglandIn November it fathered three cubs with a 7-year-old Siberian tiger called Hanya, according to the zoos websitePolice said the zoo reopened after Saturdays incident, which occurred around noonHowever, a planned late-night opening of the zoo has been canceledCologne Zoo is one of the oldest in GermanyIt was founded in 1860 and houses some 10,000 animals comprising (包括)more than 700 different species33According to the police, what was the direct reason for the incident?AThe zoo keeper was a new hand BA gate was not closed appropriatelyCThe zoo had neglected the secret passage DIt was very dark when the incident happened34How did the zoo director feel after the incident?
