Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded 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 life style. 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 farmers markets 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 life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesityor extreme overweightamong 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.28. In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.B. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.C. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.29. This text is mainly about the relationship between _.A. Americans and the FrenchB. children and adultsC. life style and obesityD. fast food and overweight30. The text is mainly developed _.A. by spaceB. by processC. by contrastD. by classification31. Where does this text probably come from?A. A health reportB. A TV interviewC. A food advertisementD. A book reviewDAnimals can move from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back. Plants certainly cannot run away, and they lack teeth and claws. But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and chemical means.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For example, the leaves of the holly plant have sharp spines(刺) that discourage grass-eating animals. Holly leaves on lower branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.Some plants , such as the oak trees, have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grasses may contain a sandy material; eating such grasses wears down the animals teeth.Many plants also have chemical defenses. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may fight against an attack by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a caterpillar(毛虫)bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a chemical messenger. This messenger sends to the roots the information to produce more nicotine. The higher levels of nicotine discourage the caterpillar.Many plants depends on both physical and chemical defenses. A certain plant in China , for instance, has prickly(多刺的) leaves, and each prickle contains poisonous venom(毒液). A single experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.32.

Its leaves fight against the attack by physical means.B. Its roots send a messenger to discourage the caterpillar.C. Its roots increase the production of nicotine when it is attacked.D. Its leaves produce poisonous sand to drive the caterpillar away.35. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Plants and AnimalsB. How Plants Defend ThemselvesC. Attacks and DefensesD.

But its true that to some people, traveling is all about the number of places one has been to. 36 Thoughtful tourists can get even more out of their traveling experience.Transformative travelTransformative travel is much like “experiential travel”. But takes it a step further. 37 You go to a place that has a very different background, you learn wisdom from the new culture and the people you meet, and finally you return home and apply the knowledge to your own life and the lives of those around you. This last phase is what separates transformative travel from experiential travel.38According to Lonely Planet, eco-friendly and sustainable travel will be one of the top trends. One way to plan a green trip is to travel a shorter distance, which can reduce your carbon footprint. 39 Another way to involve sustainability in your travel plans is to choose a destination that will benefit from your trip. For example, places like Nepal will enjoy a boost to its local economy from the money it will make through tourism.Disappearing destinationsDestinations at risk of disappearing are also welcoming an increasing number of tourists. The Arctic and Antarctic have both become popular destinations since they are under threat of climate change. Another top destination is the Great Barrier Reef. Due to pollution and global warming, its believed that it will be seriously damaged in just a few decades. 40A. Going greenB. A short-distance tripC. It usually goes through three phases.D. They both have an influence on climate.E. So consider planning an adventure closer to home.F. But the old “been there, seen that” mode is changing.G. Travelers are longing to see them before theyre gone.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Discovering Own IdentityIve dragged a stool (凳子) outside and sat my daughter Sally on it.
