My friend, Sharon, asked me 16 Id like to try McDonalds for a quick lunch. So, there we went. American fast food has been quite 17 in China, so I could easily pick something that I 18 have in Beijinga Super burger, a coke and French fries, though the names of 19 burgers were different in English. To my 20 , the burger was much bigger than 21 I had back home in China. I thought to myself, after all, most 22 are bigger than Chinese. They must 23 more for lunch.With my lunch set in front of me, I wanted some tomato sauce to 24 with my French fries, so I went to the 25 and asked him for some tomato sauce.“What?” he looked surprised. “Tomato sauce?”I started to feel 26 . I had studied English back home for six years. He should be able to 27 me without any problem. Maybe, it was not called tomato sauce here, I 28 . “Im not sure what you call that thing,” I tried again, “but its American food, and you put tomato sauce on everything.”“ 29 , miss,” he said shaking his head, “but we dont have tomato sauce here. Never have it.”I walked back to Sharon and asked her the question. She 30 and asked me to wait for a while. A few minutes later, she came back with several 31 that I had asked for. So, they 32 used the same package for the tomato sauce. Oh, no, its written right there: “Ketch-up.”“Why? Whats the difference between this Ketch-up and the tomato sauce?”“I dont know 33 we call it by this name,” said Sharon. “Never think about that. I guess.”Sharons smile suddenly made me 34 that the difference between Ketch-up and tomato sauce lay not so much in the food itself 35 in our different culture. 16.

Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reasons.A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It wasnt really a diner. It was only a food cart （手推车）. People on the street walked up to the cart, to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner that was big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools (凳子), and people sat down while they ate.Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent（固定旳，长久旳） buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonalds and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.36. Why is “diner” in quotation marks（引号） in the sentence: “A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872.”?A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”.B. Because the first diner was not a real diner.C. Because “diner” was a new word at that time.D. Because it is a special kind of restaurant.37. What meals did the first diners serve?A. Only breakfast. B. Only lunch.C. Only night-meals. D. All of the above.38. According to Paragraph 3, diners changed in ways.A. twoB. three C. fourD. five39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurants.B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant.D. Sandwiches were bigger in the early 1900s.40. The main idea of the passage is .A. the diner is a traditional, popular place to eat in the United StatesB. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come insideC. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customersD. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways BMan must eat in order to live; therefore, one of the most important problems man has is how to have enough food to eat.At first man didnt have any way to control his food supply. When he had killed all the animals in one place and all the natural foods had been used up, he had to move to another place to find new sources of food. If there was no rain, or if the weather was too hot or too cold, plants would not grow, then man had little or no food. However, man wasnt worried so much about this condition because he always had enough food.The kinds of plants that are grown by man are different in different regions(地区). In the colder regions, very few plants can be grown; in the warmer parts of the world, many kinds of plants are found. For example, in Asia, rice is the most important. In the New World, the major grain is corn. In Europe and North Africa, wheat, oats and barley（大麦） are grown. In the tropical region of the world, many kinds of fruits grow naturally or are raised by man.As man has learned more about plants and animals, he now uses modern methods to produce different kinds of food. However, there are still some areas in the world where plants and animals are raised in much the same way, as they were thousands of years ago.41. The underlined sentence “At first man didnt have any way to control his food supply.” means that man .A. didnt know how to cook his food at firstB. sometimes had more than enough to eat and sometimes didnt have enough to eatC. didnt know how to produce food at that timeD. didnt have any way to get food42. In the second paragraph, the underlined words “natural foods“ mean .A. food which was from animalsB. food which was from plantsC. plants, animals, fruits etc. which grew in natureD. crops and plants which were raised by man43. When man gradually learned ways to grow plants and raise animals, he .A. no longer depended on natureB. could control the natural conditionsC. still depended on natural conditions, but not so much as beforeD. began to care little about natural conditions44. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Man knew how to make foods and keep them at first. B. At the very beginning, man knew that he needed food but didnt know how to control his foodsupply.C. Before man learnt ways to grow crops and raise animals, he had to move from place to place inorder to get food.D. How to have enough to eat has always been a problem for man. CGood health is the most important possession a person can have, but one can not regard good health as certain to happen. Its important to remember that a body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to stay in good shapeone should eat the right foods, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition is important for good health. Your body can not function well unless it receives the proper kind of ”fuel“. Avoid foods with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, beans and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are especially important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, dont overeat. Its not healthful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you dont get enough sleep, you will feel tired and irritable (易怒旳，急躁旳). You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality. Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your lifespan (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape: basketball, swimming, bicycling. Gymnastics and running are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.45. In keeping good health .A. we should eat a lot of sweetsB. one needs a large amount of fatC. people should eat according to the food nutritionD. we must try to sleep now and then 46. The underlined word in the third paragraph probably means .A. 尖旳 B. 舒服旳C. 敏锐旳 D. 迷惑旳47. The title of this passage should be .A. Eating and Sleeping B. Staying HealthyC. Sleeping Well D. Good FoodsDScientists from China and the United States said they have found a chemical that could stop AIDS virus(艾兹病毒) from reproducing itself in the human body, raising hopes for a cure for AIDS.The chemical was discovered by a research center at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in Hefei city, Anhui Province, and Mount Sinai School of Medicine in the United States. The Sino-US joint laboratory research has found a compound(化合物，复合物), which researchers said could stop AIDS from entering cells（细胞） where the virus （细菌） lives and reproduces itself. The compound can anticipate (抢先于) AIDS virus and takes the holes of human body cells that have yet to be invaded by the virus. This would stop it from reproducing and surviving in human body, according to the researchers. The researchers did not say what the compound was and how they discovered it. The research result was published in the Journal of American Chemical. The journal highly praised the research. The present medicine treatment for AIDS has not yet reached “ideal effectiveness” and continues to have harmful side-effects (副作用) and high costs. AIDS is a fatal infectious disease（致命旳传染性疾病） caused by HIV. Since the first case was reported in the United States in 1981, AIDS has spread rapidly in the world. According to a report on Chinas AIDS prevention and control, which was released by the Ministry of Health early last year, HIV cases had been reported in all the Chinese mainland. There are 840,000 HIV carriers on the mainland, of whom 80,000 suffer from AIDS, said the Ministry of Health.48. The aim to write the passage is to .A. praise scientists for their contributions to stop AIDSB. show scientists have discovered a compound to stop AIDS virus from reproducing C. introduce to the readers that AIDS have been harming the worldD. call on more scientists to take up the research about anti-AIDS virus49. After reading the passage, we know that .A. the new discovery was mainly due to scientists cooperationB. China takes the lead in the research of AIDS virusC. the compound can kill AIDS virus in the endD. the discovery of the compound was only by accident50. In the opinion of the Journal of American chemical， is very important.A. carrying out test workB. reducing the costsC. killing harmful side-effectsD. doing experiments on humans第四节对话填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）M: You want to see me about my grades, Ms. Lain?
