25、You may know the saying: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. A recent study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps old age away.

The study involved fruit flies(g果蝇), as they share many genes(基因) with humans. Researchers gave one group of fruit flies normal food, and another group of fruit flies got the same food including apple.

The results showed that flies that ate apple lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that didn’t eat apple. The study also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb and move about as they became old, the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reports.

The researchers believe that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂）found in apples are good for health.

In another experiment, researchers studied the diets of thousands of women. They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent less likely to have heart disease.

Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code(基因代码). This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruit that are healthier. Researchers are already using this information to grow apples with added antioxidants. Antioxidants help to keep eyes and joints (关节)healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.

Apples that help people lose weight may be in supermarkets in just four or five years. They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating.

A. women like to eat apples more often than men

B. people who eat apples are easier to have heart disease

C. scientists are studying a new type of apples

D. apples’ genetic code is similar to other fruits

26、China is a large country. The population is over 1.3 billion. It has a special culture with a very long history.

Chinese food plays an important role for Chinese families. Different foods have special meanings. The main difference is that Chinese people eat their meals with chopsticks. One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice. Tea is a favourite drink and it is popular in the market.

For example, sweeping the floor before New Year's Day sweeps away all the old year's bad luck.

27、Isn’t fast food delicious? Aren’t fast food restaurants cool? The answer to these questions is yes.

However, there are growing facts that fast food is one of the worst parts of modern life. And studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken, which we enjoy so much, can cause a lot of health problems.

In spite of（尽管）this , why are fast food restaurants so attractive（吸引人的）? The first and most important reason is that their service is fast. Their staff are friendly and very smart﹣looking in their clean and bright uniforms. Moreover, most fast food restaurants are near places that people always pass by. It is so easy to grab a burger and eat on the way to work.

Fast food is often so conveniently packed that it will not cause a mess even if you stand and eat it. Fast food restaurants are also very clean. A lot of clever ads（广告） have made them the coolest places in town, but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health.

Such attractive places are selling junk food! Isn’t it a pity? Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you get the best possible, healthy and fresh food?

Well, why not?

As people realize the health problems that fast food causes, it is quite likely that fast food restaurants may go out of date. It may happen sooner or later. Therefore, instead of resisting （抵制） fast food restaurants, a better idea may be to persuade （说服） them to change their menu! Fast food restaurants can be places to go to when you want to eat something that will be good for your body. If they could combine（结合）healthy food with their speed of service, delicious tastes and comfortable feelings, that will be the next best thing on the earth for the human beings!

【1】What does “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to? ________

A．Fast food is delicious.

B．Fast food restaurants are cool.

C．People enjoy fast food.

D．Fast food can cause health problems.

【2】Which of the following can replace the word “ grab” in Paragraph 3? ________

A．Move suddenly.

B．Get quickly.

C．Throw quickly.

D．Carry carefully.

【3】According to the passage, ads about fast food ________.

A．show you all the facts

B．don’t tell you the whole truth

C．make it hard to buy fast food

D．make fast food restaurants out of date

【4】The author advises ________.

Michael Ha was【4】 (出生) in a very poor family. His parents couldn't find work in Britain because they spoke【5】 (很少的) English. The whole family had to live in a small house in a poor area in the【6】(东部) of London. Growingup was not easy for him, but he never gave up.
