24、 Divided into two groups, the students were busy in a kitchen at the High Point Community Center in Seattle, US. Instructor Asia Faircloth taught one group how to cook vermicelli (意式细面) bowls with chicken. The other group joined Jacob Alhadeff to practice new skills with knives.
The center’s four-week cooking course was centered on cooking and food justice. To teach more people about the importance of having nutritious food, the city had students from low-income families through social media. Each student received 100 dollars (700 yuan) at the end of the course.
“Low-income people are more likely to feel the effects of food injustice,” Alhadeff said. “So providing cooking instruction and putting money back in the pockets of our community members seemed like a no-brainer (容易做的决定).”
Alhadeff and Faircloth started the course not only to teach kids how to cook, but also to encourage them to think more deeply about food. They were shown how to connect personal choices with the economic cost of obesity, climate change and global food supplies.
Tahir Adams and Najah Goodrich, two juniors at Seattle Lutheran High School, joined the classes. They talked about how farmers have a hard time putting food on their own kitchen tables while growing fresh products for the rest of the country. They were proud of the new skills and recipes they learned.
“We started with more personal things, then looked at the bigger, global view ... like, how climate change is related to food,” Adams said. “It can be really bad when droughts turn places into actual deserts and droughts cause civil unrest.”
【1】What do we know about the cooking course?
A.It focused only on cooking. B.It was held in Seattle, US.
C.Its students were from wealthy families. D.Each student got 100 dollars at the beginning of the course.
【2】In Paragraph 3, Alhadeff________.
A.explains the standards for choosing students B.complains that community members are stupid
C.proves that it’s a good idea to give students free money D.explains why the course provides cooking instruction
【3】In the course, students were ________.
A.taught how to reduce obesity B.taught to focus on problems about food safety
C.taught to make their own choices D.encouraged to think more deeply about food
【4】What can we conclude from what Adams and Goodrich said?
A.They learned nothing from the course. B.They learned recipes from farmers.
C.The course widened their views on food. D.The course taught them how to solve droughts.
25、 It's no secret that laughter works wonders for us. And much research has been carried out into the good that laughter can do for our general health and well-being. It has been found to release endorphins (释放安多芬), our bodies’natural“feel-good"chemicals, into our blood. But as we grow older, we are more likely to find fewer things funny. A child will laugh on average 300 times a day. By the time we reach adulthood, this number is around 20. But what's behind this? One theory(理论) suggests that it's not a problem of us losing our sense of humor but rather, as we grow older, we're socially conditioned to take things a bit more seriously.
Laughter is very much something we do with others. Studies have shown that we are 30 times more likely to find something funny when we are with others than when we are by ourselves. But to laugh with others, we do need to feel a connection to them. We need to feel comfortable in their company. That's why it can be difficult to laugh in the presence of strangers. Laughter is also very contagious and one person's laugh can spread quickly throughout a group of people. But often what makes us join in is the fear of standing out and being different. We laugh, even if we don' t really get the joke, especially in groups controlled by a powerful person. When the head teacher tells a joke, for example, you laugh, even though later you might wonder if the joke was really that funny at all.
There are many different reasons why we laugh. Here are three widely accepted theories:
The Incongruity Theory: It's often the unexpected that makes us laugh. When things that we are familiar with suddenly take a turn into the unknown, our expectations are challenged and that often results in laughter.
The Superiority Theory: We often find the mistakes and misfortunes of others funny. This would explain the popularity of online videos showing pranks (恶作剧).
The Relief Theory:Laugh offers light relief. It explains why there are so many jokes about the darker things in life. By being able to laugh at them, we are able to face them more easily.
【1】According to the theory in Paragraph 1, why do we laugh less as we grow older?
A.There are fewer funny things.
B.We take things more seriously.
C.Our body releases less endorphins.
D.We gradually lose our sense of humor.
【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.More funny things happen when we are with others.
B.It's difficult to build up connections with strangers.
C.We laugh sometimes because of social needs.
D.Powerful people are more likely to be funny.
【3】What is the passage mainly about?
A.The science of laughter
B.the power of laughter.
C.The sign of laughter.
D.The art of laughter
26、 It was Daniel’s first trip to Disney World, and he couldn’t wait to get there.
At first he played all the silly car games with his sister Emily and parents. But there were still hours to get there. “Are we...?”
“No, Daniel,” his father said. “Please try to be patient.”
“Yeah, but this is so boring!” Daniel said.
“It's more than boring,” Emily said.
“You want to hear something about torture（折磨）?” Dad asked. “When I was your age, your grandparents took your aunt Jan and me to travel. About halfway there, we got a flat tire(轮胎). Luckily, we had a spare one, but it took a long time to change it because Grandpa dropped the lug nuts(螺母) and they rolled into the highway. He had to flag down a police car to close the right lane(车道) , so he could get the lug nuts.”
Daniel laughed, “Grandpa must have been really mad!”
“Oh, he wasn’t happy, but it got worse,” Dad said. “About fifty miles later, the engine died. Grandpa tried to fix it but he failed. So he had to walk three miles to get to a pay phone and call for help.”
“What happened next?” Daniel asked.
“We had to pay for a cheap hotel room for the night while the car was in a car repair shop being fixed.” Both Daniel and Emily laughed.
【1】How did Emily like the trip to Disney World at first?
A.She thought it was wonderful. B.She thought it was comfortable.
C.She thought it was dangerous. D.She thought it was very boring.
【2】Why did Daniel's grandpa have to flag down a police car to close the right lane?
A.Because he thought a policeman could help him to change the tire.
B.Because he wanted to get the lug nuts and change the tire himself.
C.Because he wanted another driver driving on the highway to help him.
D.Because he thought he could drive the police car to Disney World.
【3】Who most probably succeeded in fixing the engine at last?
A.Daniel’s grandpa. B.Someone in the cheap hotel.
C.Daniel's father. D.Someone in the car repair shop.
【4】How did Daniel feel when he was listening to his father’s story?
A.Bored. B.Interested. C.Sad. D.Hopeless.
27、Who taught you to speak English? Your parents, while you were a child? Your teacher at school? Perhaps even the BBC as a grown-up. Whoever it was, somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language.
There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language, and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue. There are said to be one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.
Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? Or should we worry about the dangers of “ mono-culturalism”, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music?
Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? I would have thought the other way around(相反) although I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. Ask the people of India ( where many of them speak at least some English) and Pakistan( the same situation with India) ...
If we all speak English, will we then all start eating McDonalds burgers? Surely not. If English becomes more dominant(占主导地位的), it will kill other languages? I doubt it. When I travel in Africa or Asia, I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but often one or more other related languages, as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well.
When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago, we received a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland. “The English language is a beautiful language. Maybe it’s like a rose,” he said. “But who would ever want their garden just full of roses?”
Well, I love roses, and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. But the way I see it, just by planting a few roses, you don’t necessarily need to pull out everything else. If more and more people want to plant English roses, that’s fine by me.
【1】By saying “ Ask the people of India... and Pakistan” ( in Paragraph 4) , the author is trying to show that_______.
A．speaking the same language doesn’t necessarily bring peace
B．wars can destroy the relationship between two countries
C．English doesn’t kill other languages
D．English is widely used in the world
【2】What does “garden” in the last two paragraphs stand for(代表)?
A．Language. B．Family.
C．The world. D．The universe.
【3】The author would probably agree that_________.
A．it’s very hard to plant many kinds of flowers in a garden
B．it’s good for people from other countries to learn English
C．more and more people like to plant roses in their gardens
D．English is easier to learn than other languages
【4】This passage is mainly about________.
A．why English has become a global language
B．how many people in the world speak English
C．how people in the world learn English as a foreign language
D．whether we need to worry about English being a world language
28、 Several years ago, I was employed as a Housing Officer. One day, a young man aged 18 came into our office in Yorkshire, England. He was visiting 【1】 area on his own when his wallet 【2】(steal). He couldn't get back home in Scotland, so he came to ask for help.
However, my job was dealing with housing applications and 【3】(home), not providing money for travel. After hearing my 【4】 (explain) for being unable to help him, the young man started to cry. He said his mother was disabled and didn't know where he was. To make matters 【5】(bad), his phone had been lost too and he hadn't contacted 【6】 for the past two days. I asked him to wait outside【7】 I finished work at 5:30 pm.
After work I drove him all the way 【8】 Scotland! We arrived at his mother's house at 10:30 pm. She answered the door 【9】(sit) in a wheelchair. I saw tears in her eyes as she thanked me. She wanted to give me twenty pounds for helping her son, but I refused. I just hoped that 【10】 my son experienced something similar, someone would be kind enough to bring him home.
