The American offered US $50 for the dog,but the old man refused.”I couldnt part with Jock,” he said. Just then, an English man walked up and made the same offer. The old man agreed, pocketed the money and handed over the dog.

Englands not that far away and Jock will be back in two days.

Although its probably no surprise that French fries are among the worst food you can eat, most of us still dont believe it. After all, it doesnt hurt to eat some every once in a while . right? But some people feel guilty (内疚的) to eat French fries and they have a good reason for that.According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, peoples guilty feeling may be well-placed. The research, which researched potato eating in 4,400 older people between ages of 45 and 79 over the course of eight years, shows that eating fried potatoes at least twice a week highly increases our danger of death.But hold up! Before you completely stop eating potatoes, you should know that it is found that eating potatoes overall (even a lot of them!) wouldnt kill you. Instead, its the type of potato that makes all the difference between life and death.Eating fried potatoes like French fries at least twice per week increased the risk of death in the study. On the other hand, potatoes that were not fried, such as boiled and baked potatoes, were less likely to cause death.Why? Potatoes have healthy levels of fiber (纤维) and vitamins, so you can partake without feeling bad. But when it comes to the fried food, you might need to think again. French fries usually have lots of fat and added salt, leading to weight growth. Still, when all is said and done, connection isnt totally equal to causation (因果关系). More research is needed before certainly concluding that eating French fries alone increases the risk of death.Luckily, potatoes are still considered as one of your suggested three to five servings of vegetables per day. Just try not to eat the fatty ones, if you can.24 . How do some people feel after eating some French fries?AThey feel sorry for themselves.BThey are eager to eat more French fries.CThey are satisfied about eating them.DThey are unhappy because their risk of heart attack increases.25 . Whats the passage mainly about?APeoples reasons for feeling guilty.BThe worst food that should be avoided.CA study about potatoes effects on peoples health.DResearch on the relation between French fries and death.26 . From the findings of the study, we learn that_.Apotatoes arent good for everyoneBmuch food can mean life and deathCwe shouldnt eat one type of food too muchDhow food is cooked is important to our health27 . What does the underlined word “ones” in Paragraph 6 refer to?AFruit.BVegetables.CPotatoes.DFrench fries.28 . What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?APeople shouldnt eat potatoes any more in daily life.BPeople should eat potatoes which have less fat.CAlthough potatoes arc a kind of vegetables, we cant eat them.DPotatoes arent allowed to eat by people who are in bad health.Two young men, one was a prisoner while the other was a famous official from the White House, both told a story about how their mothers give apples to them.The story from the prisoner: When I was young, one day my mother brought several apples, among which there was a biggest red one that I really wanted to get.
