Its called Apple Day but in practice its more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesnt taste of anything special, its still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cats Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but youll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so its a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园). If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.21.What can people do at the apple events?A. Attend experts lectures. B. Visit fruit-loving families.C. Plant fruit trees in an orchard. D. Taste many kinds of apples.22.What can we learn about Decio?A. It is a new variety. B. It has a strange look.C. It is rarely seen now. D. It has a special taste.23.What does the underlined phrase a pipe dream in Paragraph 3 mean?A. A practical idea. B. A vain(徒劳) hope.C. A brilliant plan. D. A selfish desire.24.What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A. To show how to grow apples. B. To introduce an apple festival.C. To help people select apples. D. To promote apple research.BYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious (难为情) when theyre in poorly lit places and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when its time to repaint, go blue.Dont forget the clock or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while youre at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And well pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.25.The text is especially helpful for those who care about _.A. their home comforts B. their body shapeC. house buying D. healthy diets26.A home environment in blue can help people _.A. digest food better B. reduce food intakeC. burn more calories D. regain their appetites27.What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.28.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?COne of the latest trends (趋势) in American childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair in Stamford, Conn., for example, has got increasing numbers of requests for Chinese au pairs from zero to around 4,000 since 2020. And thats true all across the country.I thought it would be very useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age, Joseph Stocke, the managing director of a company, says of his 2-year-old son. I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future. After only six months of being cared for by a 25-year-old woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China: She didnt want her children to miss out on their roots. Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to (接触) the language and culture, she says.Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom, says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of children. But parents must understand that just one year with an au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.29.What does the term au pair in the text mean?A. A mother raising her children on her own. B. A child learning a foreign language at home.C. A professor in language education of children. D. A young foreign woman taking care of children.30.Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them .A. to live in China some day B. to speak the language at homeC. to catch up with other children D. to learn about the Chinese culture31.What can we infer from the text?A. Learning Chinese is becoming popular in America.B. Educated women do better in looking after children.C. Chinese au pairs need to improve their English skills.D. Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.DWhy do Americans struggle with watching their weight,while the French,who consume rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how lifestyle and decisions about eating may affect weight.Researchers conclude that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full.However,Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr.Joseph Mercola,a health expert,the French see eating as an important part of their lifestyle.They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table,while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities.Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped.In addition,he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French,instead,tend to shop daily,walking to small shops and farmersmarkets where they have a choice of fresh fruits,vegetables,and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano,author of French Women Dont Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food.Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent lifestyle changes may be affecting French eating habits.Today the rate of obesity or extreme overweight among adults is only 6.However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17 and is growing.321.In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr.Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyle.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.33.This text is mainly about the relationship between_.A. Americans and the French B. lifestyle and obesityC. children and adults D. fast food and overweight34.This text is mainly developed_.A. by contrast B. by spaceC. by process D. by classification35.Where does this text probably come from?A. A TV interview. B. A food advertisement.C. A health report. D. A book review.第二节 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Tips for Cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience, there are three main reasons why people dont cook more often: ability, money, and time. 36 Money is a topic Ill save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when Im already hungry and theres nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials already? 372.Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 38 It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. 39 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start. 40 And dont let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A. Try new things.B. Ability is easily improved.C. Make three or four instead.D. Understand your food better.E. Cooking is a burden for many people.F. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.G. A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第1节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题15分，满分30分）One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget.
