But when Amy, an exchange student in Beijing from the US, first saw this, she found it strange, even impossible to understand. She wrote on her blog, Unlike Chinese women, American women like to put on their tank tops and sunglasses during summer. If you walk around an American college campus2, you will probably see girls out on the grassy fields reading, but they really hope to get a head start on their summer tan3. This may be caused by the different standards of beauty between the US and China. Many Americans dont want white skin. They would rather be tanned3. Amy also wrote, Having darker skin is so popular that many women and men will pay for fake4tans so that they can keep their sun-kissed appearance during the winter months, too. Why do they like tanned skin? Michelle Louis reported in her research, The process of tanning can help make peoples skin smooth and hide marks. She further explained, Tans make peoples skin appear healthier and make them appear thinner than when they have pale skin. Perhaps there is no real ideal standard of beauty. In different cultures and at different times of history, the standards change. On Amys blog, she also gave two examples: Some women carried parasols around trying to keep their white skin in the US 150 years ago; During the Tang Dynasty in China, heavy women were thought attractive. But now, Chinese women prefer to be slim.In a word, different standards of beauty should be respected. People may grow up with only one idea of what beauty is, but it doesnt mean that its necessarily the correct or the best idea.New words:1. parasol n. umbrella used to protect people from the sun 阳伞2. campus n. grounds of school, college or university校园3. tan n. the brown colour of sun-kissed skin 晒成的棕褐v. become brown by the sun 晒成棕褐色，晒黑4. fake adj. not real 假的26 .

Believe it or not, thats exactly what world leaders did at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015.During the meal, the world leaders enjoyed dishes like salads and burgers made with thrown-away vegetables and fruits. Chef Dan Barber, who helped create the meal, hoped that the experience would make the leaders pay more attention to the issue of food waste.It is a huge problem. One out of nine people on Earth does not get enough food. Yet every year over one third of the food produced worldwide goes to waste!Why is so much food wasted? Firstly, food is often thrown away before it reaches customers because too much of it is produced, or because it is not kept properly in farms. Secondly, shops and supermarkets usually throw away unsold food. Finally, customers often buy more food than they need, so a lot of uneaten food is wasted.How can you waste less food? When eating out, you may ask for less food and take home what is left. Visit fast food restaurants less often, since they are usually more wasteful. Encourage your favorite restaurants to give unsold food to food banks.You can also waste less food at home. Use smaller rice bowls so that you serve less rice. Encourage family members to use unfinished rice to make rice puddings. Tell family members to make a shopping list and buy only what is on the list when shopping for food.Food waste is a growing problem and we, either farmers or food sellers or customers, must take this problem more seriously and do what we can to help.33 . What did world leaders do at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015?AThey threw away food as waste during the meal.BThey made dishes with waste vegetables and fruitsCThey ate food made with waste vegetables and fruits.DThey helped Chef Dan Barber create the special meal.34 .

Which way of wasting less food is mentioned in the passage?ABuying unsold food from supermarkets.BKeeping food properly in a fridge.CUsing smaller rice bowls when eating out.DAsking for less food in restaurants.In Hong Kong, most schools are very strict about what students wear to school. For example, they do not allow students to wear any kind of accessories, such as necklaces or earrings. Some people argue that small items, like simple earrings, should be acceptable. However, I feel that students should not be allowed to wear any kind of accessories to school.Firstly, if students are allowed to wear accessories to school, they will be less focused on their studies. Instead of discussing schoolwork, they will spend time talking about accessories. For example, things like the latest trends or where to find them. Besides, if students are allowed to wear accessories to school, they will probably spend a lot of time reading fashion magazines and shopping. As result, they will spend far less time on homework and revision.Another reason why I think accessories should not be allowed in school is that they can be very costly. Even if students choose not to buy designer accessories, they may still spend a lot of their pocket money on them. This is because there are many types of accessories available and they would probably want several items of each.All in all, if students are allowed to wear accessories to school, it will distract(分散) them from their studies. In addition, it will cost them a lot of money. Therefore, I believe that students should not be allowed to wear accessories to school.37 . Which of the following things are accessories?ARingsBSweatersCShoesDUniforms.38 . How do students probably get the information about new accessories?ABy discussing schoolwork with friends.BBy chatting with some designers online.CBy reading fashion magazines and shopping.DBy entering a school for only designers.39 . What is the writers purpose of writing this passage?ATo show different opinions towards whether students can wear accessories to school.BTo argue why he thinks students should not be allowed to wear accessories to school.CTo describe what accessories students are wearing to school in Hong Kong these days.DTo advise more and more students in Hong Kong to wear simple accessories to school.40 . What is the structure of this passage?ABCD五、语法填空阅读下面短文，用括号内所给词的适当形式填空，必要时可加助动词或情态动词。A gift is necessary when one is invited to visit friends in China. After greetings, the gift should41 .
