26、 A healthy diet may not offset (抵消) the effects of a high salt intake on blood pressure, suggests a new study. The research, from scientists at a number of institutions, studied the diets of over 4,000 people. The results showed that people eating higher amounts of salt had higher blood pressure — no matter how healthy a person’s overall diet.
The scientists behind the research are now advising people to monitor their salt intake-and food companies to lower the salt content in their products.
High blood pressure affects more than one in four adults in the UK, and increases the risk of a number of conditions including heart attacks and stroke. It’s thought that vitamins and minerals in fruit and vegetables might in some way affect blood vessels (血管), enabling them to lower blood pressure. Previously, experts believed that eating high amounts of fruit and vegetables might help offset the effects of high salt on blood pressure. However, while these foods do tend to lower blood pressure, the new research suggests they do not offset the adverse influence of high salt intake.
In the paper, the team studied data from the so-called INTERMAP study. In this study published in 2018，scientists tracked the diets of 4, 680 people, aged 40-59, from the USA, the UK, Japan and China. The researchers found a link between high blood pressure and high salt intake, even in people who were on a healthy diet.
The recommended upper limit of adult salt intake in the UK is 6 g a day. The study found that the average salt intake across the study was 10.7 g a day. The average intake for the UK was 8.5 g while the intake for the USA, China and Japan were9.6g, 13.1 g and 11.7 g respectively.
Increasing salt intake above this average amount was linked 10 an increase in blood pressure. Dr Queenie Chan, joint lead author of the research, said the research shows the importance o cutting salt intake.
【1】What can food industry do to help lower people’s high blood pressure?
A．Take control of their salt production.
B．Monitor the quality of their products.
C．Cut down salt content in their products.
D．Make salt-free food only.

A．Adventurous.

C．Brief.
D．Average,
【3】Which of the following nations has the highest average salt intake?

B．The UK.
C．China.
D．Japan.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．High blood pressure is related to high salt intake
B．A healthy diet may not offset high salt intake
C．Research shows the importance of cutting salt intake
D．People eating higher amounts of salt have higher blood pressure
27、Cleary was working as a librarian in Washington, when a little boy marched up and asked, “Where are the books about kids like us?” Cleary realized she had had the same thought as a girl. There had been plenty of books about kids but none that appealed to common neighborhood kids. So she set out to fill that gap. The hero of her first book Henry Huggins was an adventurous third-grader with hair “like a scrubbing brush” and a skinny dog named Ribsy.
Cleary was born on her family’s farm. When she was 6, they moved to Portland. Though Portland would become the sting for many of her books, she struggled to adapt to city life. Cleary was a slow reader at first, but in third grade she was going through a children’s novel when she “discovered I was reading,” Cleary said, “and enjoying it” Cleary found both comedy and drama in the smaller incidents of life, but she did not avoid serious themes. In 1977’s Ramona and Her Father, Ramona tries to persuade her dad to quit smoking—hanging a sign at home reading “NO SMOKING”. To attract her own young son to read, Cleary created a new character for 1965’s The Mouse and the Motorcycle—Ralph S. Mouse, a creature who makes friends with a human boy.
For 30 years Cleary answered her fan mails herself. Dear Mr. Henshaw was inspired by two letters asking her to write a book about a boy whose parents are divorced. The novel, constructed as a series of letters between a lonely sixth-grader and his favorite writer, won the Newbery Medal, the top prize for children’s literature. Whatever she wrote, Cleary was always guided by the child she had once been. “That little girl,” she said, “prevents me from writing down to children and from writing an adult recollection (回忆) about childhood instead of a book to be enjoyed by children.”
【1】Why did Cleary decide to write books for ordinary kids?
A．A little boy asked her to do so.
B．It was her dream as a little girl.
C．Ordinary kids couldn’t afford books.
D．Books then didn’t attract ordinary kids.
【2】What can we know about Cleary from paragraph2?
A．Many of her books were set in Portland.
B．She adapted to city life very soon.
C．She disliked reading at the fourth grade.
D．Her books were mainly comedies.
【3】Which novel won the top prize for children’s literature?
A．Henry Huggins.
B．Ramona and Her Father.
C．Dear Mr. Henshaw.
D．The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
【4】Who does the underlined “that little girl” in the last paragraph refer to?
A．One of her fans.
B．The young Cleary.
C．A lonely six-grader.
D．The character Ramona.
28、For the past year or so, my family and I have been enjoying the meal at 5 Guys Burgers and Fries. Consistently ranking among the top burger places by fans and publications alike, 5 Guys is growing like mad by offering delicious, affordable handmade patties (小馅饼) and a very generous part of fries.
While everything is delicious, it’s the fries that I want to talk about for a moment. Customers appreciate getting extra value for the same price. 5 Guys does such an amazing thing, such a cool little business trick, that I didn’t catch on until I really thought about it recently.
Here’s what they do: When you order some fries from the counter, the server takes their little paper fries bucket, fills it up, and then puts it in a paper bag. Then they take an even bigger scoop (勺) of fries and put it into the bag, on top of the regular order. I always think, and my kids always say, “I can’t believe how many extra fries we get!”
And then it finally dawned on me. We don’t really get any extra fries at all, do we? The genius of this little show is that for all purposes, it looks and feels like we get extra fries, but the truth is that they planned on giving that amount of fries out anyway, and budget for that. But they package it in such a clever way that you think you’re getting this great deal, this something for nothing.
People love getting a deal. We love saving money. And we like to think we’re that special customer worthy of the extra fries. Does it cost 5 Guys anything extra? No way. Does it build goodwill? You bet.
【1】According to Paragraph 1, the author likes 5 Guys because ______.
A．it grows very fast
B．it offers excellent food
C．it ranks among the top
D．it is popular among publications
【2】What interested the author recently?
A．5 Guys’s delicious fries.
B．5 Guys’s attractive price.
C．5 Guys’s way of doing business.
D．5 Guys’s large number of customers.
【3】Which of the following impresses the author’s kids most?
A．The fries outside the fries bucket.
B．The little paper fries bucket.
C．The even bigger scoop.
D．The good design of the bag.
【4】According to the text, 5 Guys’s business trick is based on ______.
A．psychology
B．chemistry
C．biology
D．physics
29、It’s a rink which has become synonymous with a healthy life style-but is green tea the magical potion many heath sites would have us believe? Green tea has been popular in China for centuries and has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a number of health issues-including depression.
Its virtues have also been extolled by celebrities and so-called heath experts for a number of reasons. These include its ability to help weight-loss as well as containing antioxidants which are believed to help combat different types of cancer. heart disease and Alzheimer's. Given these claims, it’s easy to see green tea as sort of magical elixir.
1.Green tea and weight loss
Green tea contains B vitamins, folate (naturally occurring folic acid), manganese, potassium, magnesium, caffeine and other antioxidants, such as catechins. It’s catechins along with green tea’s naturally occurring caffeine which are thought to help the body burn more calories. Weight-loss products containing green tea have a higher concentration of catechins and caffeine than the typical green tea beverage. However, there's some bad news. A review from 2012 of 18 studies involving 1,945 people found no significant effect of weight loss from drinking green tea.
2. Green tea and cholesterol
Thanks again to the catechins, in a reputable review from 2013 of 11 studies involving 821 people, it was found daily consumption of green and black tea (as a drink or a capsule) could help lower cholesterol and blood pressure.
It's important to note, however, that the authors of the study pointed out the trials were short-term, and cautioned longer-term trials would be needed to substantiate their findings. These were back up by an earlier review in 2011, which found drinking green tea enriched with catechins led to a small-reduction in cholesterol, a main cause of heart disease and stroke.
Though no one could say for certain how much green tea a person would need to drink to reap the benefits.
3. Green tea and cancer
On this the NHS is clear. There is no evidence drinking green tea protects against different types of cancer.
【1】What's the meaning of the underlined word in the second paragraph?
A. Criticized B. Commented C. Praised D. Exaggerated(夸张)
【2】People think the ingredients in green tea that can burn more calories are_______.
①vitamins ② folate ③catechins④magnesium ⑤ caffeine
A. ①② B. ④⑤ C. ③⑤ D. ②⑤
【3】According to Part 2, we can infer that______
A. further researches are needed to prove the findings
B. the short-term research is not right
C. the long-term research is not in the works
D. over drinking green tea benefits health

James Selton was one of the rudest boys in the village where he lived: If a person in the street was well dressed, he would cry out, “Dandy(花花公子)!” If a person’s clothes were dirty or torn, he would throw stones at him, and annoy him in every way.
One afternoon, just as the school was over, a stranger passed through the village. His dress was plain and somewhat old, but neat and clean. He carried a walking stick in his hand, on the end of which was a parcel, and he wore a round hat.
No sooner had James seen the stranger than he winked to his playmates, and said, “Now for some fun!” He then silently went toward the stranger from behind, knocked off his hat, and ran away.
The man turned and saw him, but James was out of hearing before the man could speak. The stranger put on his hat, and went on his way. Again James approached; but this time, the man caught him by the arm, and held him tightly. However, he contented himself with looking James a moment in the face, and then pushed him away. As soon as the naughty boy found himself free again, he began to throw dirt and stones at the stranger.
But James was very frightened when the man was struck on the head by a brick and badly hurt. All the boys ran away, and James slipped across the fields to his home.
As he drew near the house, his sister Caroline came out to meet him, holding up a beautiful gold chain and some new books for him to see. She told James that their uncle, who had been away several years, had come home, and was now in the house; that he had bought beautiful presents for the whole family; that he had left his carriage at the inn, a mile or two off and walked on foot so as to surprise his brother, their father.
