But what I read startled me. Fast-food employees admitted they saw food that had dropped on the floor being served. They also admitted that some food even had spit on it.Schlosser also describes the environment of a slaughterhouse(屠宰场)he visited in Nebraska. He describes a workers job that is to shoot cows for eight hours. The slaughterhouse has blood that is ankle deep and the dead cows are hung in the air before being carved（切开）.Schlosser also explains how fast food attracts young children by giving away toys with meals and airing ads on Saturday mornings. I realize that he is totally right because I remember that I used to buy Happy Meals based on what toys they were offering. When McDonalds restaurants were giving out Beanie Babies as toys, my mom took me there every day so I could collect them all. When I was 7, I liked going to another McDonalds that had a really cool train display. I realize that the train was another factor that drew me back to McDonalds.Even though fast food chains will probably never disappear, I believe anyone who reads the book will think twice before eating fast food. Now I dont eat fast food as often. I have been eating more seafood to lose weight. But once or twice a month when Im out with my friends, well eat at a fast food restaurant. The hamburger and fries still taste good. But when Im down to the last bite, I remember what goes into making it and I regret eating it.26.

This passage is a (an) _.A. school paper B. movie review C. book review D. advertisementBSeptember is an exciting month in every college freshmans life. For many, its the first time that theyve left home to live in a new environment. But after the hustle and bustle of a few weeks, excitement gives way to a less enjoyable emotion homesickness.Homesickness manifests itself in many ways. You may miss mums cooking, your pets, or even your old bed. All this becomes a fond memory of the past. Homesickness can be a bitter feeling for many students, especially when faced with the challenges of settling into an unfamiliar environment.But remember, youre not alone. According to a recent BBC article, 70 percent of British college students experience homesickness. In this increasingly globalized world in which people migrate to faraway places for a relationship, education or work, homesickness is a feeling shared by many adults.Homesickness can have similar symptoms to depression and in extreme cases it can develop into a panic attack. As for the term, homesickness or nostalgia wasnt invented until the 17th century. It was considered a disorder by a Swiss physician, who attributed soldiers mental and physical discomfort to their longing to return home, “nostos” from Greek, and the accompanying pain, “algos”.Studies in recent years, however, have shown that nostalgia may have some benefits to our mental health. After a decade of surveys and researches, Constantine Sedikides, a US social psychologist, found that nostalgia is what makes us human. He explains that nostalgia can resist loneliness, boredom and anxiety. It makes people more generous toward strangers and more tolerant of outsiders. Sediktdes admits that nostalgia has its painful side, but the net effect is to make life seem more meaningful. When people speak wistfully of the past, they typically become more optimistic and inspired about the future. The trick is not to become obsessive about the past, but always to live life forward. Therefore, its necessary for college students to learn some ways to overcome the uncomfortable feeling.31.

How to fit into the college lifeC.

Parents should also set family rules covering the use of the Internet, cellphones, including, perhaps, which sites can be visited, and who can be called. The policy also restated the existing recommendations: Kids should limit the amount of screen time for entertainment to less than two hours per day; children younger than 2 shouldnt have any TV or Internet exposure. Also, televisions and Internet-accessible devices should be kept out of kids bedrooms.Doctors say parents need to obey the family rules, too, to model healthy behavior. That, some say, may be the toughest part. “If you go to any restaurant, Family 3.0 is Mom and Dad on their devices and the kids on theirs”, says Donald, a pediatrician and an AAP spokesman. “Who is talking to each other?”Children aged from 8 to 18 spent an average of 7 hours and 38 minutes a day consuming media for fun, including TV, music, video games and other content in 2020, according to a 2020 report from the Kaiser Family Foundation. The report was based on a survey of 2002 third through twelfth graders, 702 of whom completed a seven-day media use diary. That was up about an hour and 17 minutes a day from five years earlier. About two-thirds of 8 to 18-year-olds said they had no rules on the amount of time they spent watching TV, playing video games or using the computer, the Kaiser report found.Use of mobile devices by young kids has soared. A new report from Common Sense Media, a child-advocacy group based in San Francisco, found that 17% of children 8 and younger use mobile devices daily, up from 8% in 2020.36.Which statement isTrueaccording to the 1st paragraph?A.

Electronic devices threaten the relationship of many familiesDA board game is a game played on a pre-marked surface or “board” according to a set of rules. Board games have been played in most cultures and societies throughout history. Do you think of yourself as a bit of an expert at board gameslikechessorGo?Maybe youre not quite as good as you think. New research from the University of Manchester and Oxford suggests complex games like these are impossible to learn fully. They may even be too complex for the human mind to understand.Researchers studied two-player games, to try and understand the strategies which people use to make decisions during the game. Some games with two players are simple, with only a small number of possible moves. Players can quickly work out the best strategy but that means the game soon becomes boring.It gets more interesting when there are many possible moves. Thats why people are so fascinated by complex board games like chess or Go, or somecard games. But what the researchers found was that with difficult games, players find it hard to work out the best strategy and theiractionsbecomeless reasonable.This research is part of the field calledgame theory: the study of human strategic decision-making. Much thinking on how people play complex games is based on something called “the balance point”, which is when players have a perfect knowledge of what they are going to do and of what theirrivals are going to do.When you add more than two players then of course the game becomes even harder to understand. Trading on the stock market is an example of a complex multi-player game.41. Which of the following games belongs to board games?A. football B. badminton C. swimming D. Mahjong42. It can be inferred in the passage that _.A. the simpler the board game is, the better it isB. people dislike board games for the complex movesC. players are easy to lose patience when in difficult gamesD. its possible for people to understand complex games thoroughly43. If players want to get to the balance point, they should _.A. ask other players to work out the best strategyB. have a good knowledge of the games they are playingC. figure out the next actions of themselves and their opponentsD. come to a quick decision about what to do next by themselves44. In which section can we read this passage in a newspaper?A. Culture B. Discovery C. Career D. Campus45. The author intends to tell us _.A. a new research about board games B.the importance of playing board gamesC. how the players win board games D. how to learn board games fully第二节：信息匹配（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按要求匹配信息，在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先请阅读下列中学生课外读物的封面及基本信息；This book has information about practically anything and everything!
