During that time, I helped her do some housework and buy some food. After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them. One day, I talked to a neighbour and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me why wouldnt she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out? When my mum got home, I gave her a big hug (拥抱).I told her she didnt need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years, she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything, I was so moved by how selfless (无私的) she was. She helped others in need. As her son, I was so proud of my mum. I continued to buy food for my mum after that. But I always added one more bag for her other children. 4. After the first week, the writer noticed that _.

A. old grandma B. own mother C. new neighbour D. dear teacher 6. How did the writer feel about his mum after she told him everything? A .He was proud of her. B. He was confident in her. C. He was angry with her. D. He was worried about her. 7. The writer added one more bag of food to _. A. make friends with the children B. get a hug from his mother C. become well-known in the area D. help the poor street children CNowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countriesHave a look in your fridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins(来源) of the foodPerhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egyp. You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plateThis journey, from “field to plate”, is called “food miles”A food mile is the distance（距离） that food travels from the farmers field to the person who buys the foodNowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者)Why is this, and what are the effects(影响) of these long distances.Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market so the food didnt have to travel very farThe consumers also did not travel very far, because they went to their local market to buy the foodThis was a good system（系统） for farmers and consumersHowever, there were some disadvantagesFor example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locallyIn addition, they could only get food that was in seasonNow, because of modern technology（技术）, food comes from all over the worldWe do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoesThey areavailablein winter if we want Some countries have to import(进口) most of their foodThis is because they have difficult climatesThe United Arab Emirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countriesEven food made in the UAE often uses imported materials Whats wrong with “food miles?” Is this not a good way of increasing international trade ？I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasonsFirst of all, because food travels such long distances，we need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the foodThis means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warmingIn addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tastyTomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeyFor this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumerLocal food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollutionWe need to buy more local food8What is called “food miles” according to this passage?AThe origins of the foodBThe effects of long distancesCThe journey from field to plateDThe disadvantages of imported food9Some countries like the United Arab Emirates have to import most of their food because of _ _ Along distances Bdifficult climates Cfresh and tasty food Dmodern technology10 The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to _Abuy more local food Bincrease international tradeCtravel long distances Duse imported materials11This passage is mainly about ._Ahow local food travels from field to plate Bwhat “food miles” is and its effectsChow some countries import their food Dwhere different kinds of food come from 四词汇运用：（15分）1.

As China opens its door, it is a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad. They want to learn about the outside world.Its true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.But there are disadvantages（劣势）that should be considered（考虑）. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language.Students must also learn to live without parents care and deal with all kinds of things they havent had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad running into an ocean of difficulties and giving up finally. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden（负担）to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?We know that there are many famous people who have achieved success through their hard work in China.
