21、 The FDA is the common name for the Food and Drug Administration. It is a government agency that makes consumer goods safe. It regulates food and the food supply. It also controls diet supplement. The FDA also makes sure that drugs and medical devices are safe and effective.
For drugs and medical machines to be accepted, they must go through a lengthy process. There are many strict tests. First, anything that humans use must be tested on animals. This may take up to 6 years. Then, it must be tested with a few people. Testing on 15 to 20 people can last up to a year and a half. Third, a mid-sized group (100 to 500 people) is used. This often takes two years. Then a large group is tested over 3 years. Of 5,000 drugs discovered, only 5 enter trials. Of that, only one passes on to the market.
Food supplements like ginseng (人参) follow a different path. The FDA does not pre-test them as they do for drugs. The agency only controls these products if they are unsafe but are already being sold. Two exceptions are baby and medical food. Because those that use them are not strong, the FDA is more careful with these products.
Labeling(标签) is a major focus. A label must show what a product is for. For drugs, labels should say the name of the drug and what it is used for. It should also detail who should take it and list any side effects. It needs to detail directions for pregnant women, children, or old people. It also needs to detail safety information.
The FDA protects the public from harm. It achieves this through controls and labeling. It has standards for effectiveness in medical products. It also has standards for how information is shared.
【1】According to the passage, how many drugs make it to the market?
A.Nearly five thousand. B.One of five thousand.
C.Five thousand only. D.Over five thousand.
【2】The author uses food supplements as an example of which of the following?
A.Things the FDA avoids B.Things the FDA controls
C.Things the FDA buys D.Things the FDA refuses
【3】Which of the following can be inferred from Paragraph 4 about labeling?
A.It is a necessary way to protect the public.
B.It does not matter if people read the labels or not.
C.It is only good if people can find the label.
D.It has no use if doctors tell people what to do
【4】Which of the following is NOT discussed in the passage?
A.Requirements for labeling
B.The acceptance of medical supplies
C.Why pregnant women take drugs
D.Controls for baby and medical food
22、 On a very cold night my new friend and I were in downtown Seattle when a strange man walked up to us. Behind him was a woman pushing a stroller with a child inside. The child had a jacket on but it wasn’t zipped. The man began to tell us that he wanted to borrow some money for the night to get his wife and kid into a hotel. He had a job but no place to live and was waiting for his first paycheck. He said he could get our mailing address and mail the money back to us.
The guy I was with reached into his pocket to give this man a ＄20 bill. As the man was reaching out his hand to take the money, I put my hand on my new friend’s hand and said,“Can I talk to you for a minute?”
I told him about how my mother worked in Seattle and every day people asked her for money on her way to work. She said they made more money than she did, simply begging for money. These people were scamming those people with soft hearts. And if they were truly worried about their child being out of the cold, they would have at least zipped his jacket or covered him with his blanket.
My friend looked at me with disappointment and said, “Michelle, I know there are people who cheat others. I also know there are people who are one paycheck away from being homeless. If I give ＄20 to 10 people and only one of them really needs it and uses it for the right thing, it is worth it.”
I am now 37 years old and have never forgotten what he said to me. I don’t even remember his name. He could have been an angel for all I know. But I do remember that that experience changed the way I looked at different situations.
【1】According to the first paragraph, the stranger said that he ____.
A.was a complete beggar B.didn’t care about his family
C.lost his wallet D.didn’t get his salary then
【2】The underlined word“scamming”in Paragraph 3 probably means ____.
A.respecting B.helping C.cheating D.killing
【3】What did the writer’s friend think of the writer?
A.Careful. B.Soft-hearted. C.Wise. D.Disappointing.
【4】From the friend’s words, we can learn that ____.
A.he knew the stranger’s true meaning
B.he didn’t regret his act of kindness even if cheated
C.before helping others, think it over
D.he had helped at least 10 people
23、Modern life is comfortable. Meanwhile, it is costly. As price and building costs keep rising, the do-it-yourself (DIY) trend (趋势) in the U.S. continues to grow.
“We need furniture for our living-room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decide to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe-making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course. I should be able to fix the car by myself.”
John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living.
If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take the course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
【1】We can learn from the second paragraph that ______.
A. many young people have difficulty building a house
B. many newly married people take DIY courses for fun
C. John and his wife make or repair things to save money
D. John and his wife build their furniture to improve the quality of life

D. The car repair class wasn’t helpful
24、Do you want to love what you do for a living? Follow your passion. This piece of advice provides the foundation for modern thinking on career satisfaction. But this can be a problem.
I’ve spent the past several years researching and writing about the different strategies we use to seek happiness in our work. It became clear early in the process that the suggestion to evidence. However, it passionate about your complicated. “follow your passion” was flawed, for it lacks scientific doesn’t mean you should abandon the goal of feeling work. The reality emphasizes that the things are quite.
Passion is earned. Different people are looking for different things in their work, but generally, people with satisfying careers enjoy some combination of the following features: autonomy, respect, competence, creativity, and a sense of impact. In other words, if you want to feel passionate about your livelihood, don’t seek the perfect job, but seek to get more of these features in the job you already have.
Passion is elusive (难捉摸的). Many people develop the rare and valuable skills leading to passion, but still end up unhappy in their work. The problem is that the features leading you to love your work are more likely to be useful to you than your organization. As you become increasingly “valuable”, for example, your boss might push you toward traditional promotions that come with more pay and more responsibility, as this is what is most useful to your company. However, you might find more passion by applying your value to gain autonomy in your schedule or project selection.
Passion is dangerous. I’ve watched too many of my peers fall into anxiety and chronic job-hopping due to the “follow your passion” advice. The issue is expectations. If you believe we all have a pre-existing passion, and that matching it to a job will lead to instant workplace happiness, reality will always pale in comparison.
Work is hard. Not every day is fun. If you’re seeking a dream job, you’ll end up frustrated, again and again. Don’t set out to discover passion. Instead, set out to develop it. This path might be longer and more complicated than what most cheerful career guides might advocate, but it’s a path much more likely to lead you somewhere worth going.

【3】The underlined sentence in Para.5 probably means that _____.
A．it’s not easy to match our passion with our jobs
B．we shouldn’t think everyone has a pre-existing passion
C．high expectations of passion in jobs bring disappointment
D．workplace happiness doesn’t require a pre-existing passion
【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the advice of “following your passion”?
A．Neutral.
B．Disapproving.
C．Cautious.
