25、We choose food to eat every day. We might know some of the reasons for the choices. But food scientist Dr. Brian Wansink has found that we are unaware of 90% of our food decision. Here are some “big ideas” in his research on the hidden power that drives our eating.
Food for thought
In one of the studies, Dr. Wansink made volunteers eat chocolate yogurt in a dark room. He told them the yogurt was with a taste of strawberry even though they were all eating chocolate. Finally, 65% of volunteers described the yogurt as having a “nice strawberry flavor”!
The research shows that our imagination has an effect on our taste. If you expect a food to taste good, it will. So take a moment before you eat your unpleasant healthy food to remind yourself that you are eating delicious fish and chips.
Our eyes eat first
How your food looks is just as important as how it tastes. Dr. Wansink gave cakes to three groups of people.
The cakes were exactly the same but served in different ways.
①Group one got the cake on a nice plate.
②Group two got the cake on a paper plate.
③Group three got the cake on a piece of paper.
Dr. Wansink then asked the people how much they would pay for each cake.
①Group one who got the cake on a nice plate would pay $1.27.
②Group two who got the cake on a paper plate would pay 76 cents.
③Group three who got the cake on a piece of paper would pay 53 cents.
Take some time to make your healthy food look amazing. Cut your fruit into a flower shape and put your colorful vegetables on nice plates. This works really well for your appetite (胃口).
Out of sight, out of stomach
Dr. Wansink also found that when people sat at the desk full of snacks, they ate 71% more of snacks a day than those sitting near a clear table. We eat what we see. As a result, put all the unhealthy food in your fridge.
Hide it and make it really hard to get to. The closer bad food is, the more you eat it.
【1】How many ideas are mentioned in the passage?
A.3.
B.4.
C.5.
D.6.
【2】Why did the volunteers say the yogurt had a strawberry flavor?
A.They didn’t like chocolate yogurt.
B.The yogurt had a taste of strawberry.
C.The yogurt was made from strawberry.
D.They thought they had eaten strawberry yogurt.
【3】How can we make ourselves eat more vegetables we don’t like?
A.Have the same vegetable every day.
B.Serve vegetables on lovely plates.
C.Put vegetables on a piece of paper.
D.Eat vegetables as soon as they are cooked.
【4】To avoid eating too many snacks, we should NOT ________.
A.hide them
B.put them on the desk
C.leave them in the fridge
D.make them really hard to get to
【5】What is the passage mainly about?

26、 Many of you have probably had this experience: You get on a train and are ready to take a rest or read a book, only to find that the passenger in front of you is watching a TV show on his pad without earphones. The child next to you won’t stop crying. And the old lady behind you talks on her phone during the whole trip.
Wish the train could be less noisy? There might be good news for you. The Bejing-Shanghai high- speed rail lines will have “quiet” carriages(车厢) starting from Dec 23.
In quiet carriages, videos on the train will be kept quiet and notices will be given at a lower volume (音量). Doors at the end of the carriage will be kept closed to reduce noise from other carriages. Train workers will make sure that passengers remain quiet and follow the rules. Passengers who promise to follow the rules can choose the quiet carriages when book ing their tickets.
Although many Internet users are in favor of the new service, there has also been a hot discussion. Some people have pointed out that this kind of quiet environment should be offered in all carriages because having quiet carriages might make people feel that they don’t need to be quiet in non - quiet carriages. Besides, people just wonder how quiet they should be in quiet carriages and they may have questions such as “What if I snore(打呼噜)?” and “Can we talk to our friends if we need to?”
【1】Why did the writer mention the train experience?
A.To give some advice.
B.To lead in the main topic.
C.To share his idea.
D.To introduce a new research.
【2】What do the underlined words “in favor of” in the last paragraph probably mean?

B.反对
C.讨论
D.质疑
【3】What is the text mainly about?

C.The coming of quiet carriages.
D.Rules for passengers on the train.
27、On June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could now read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA.DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do.DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family.It is because of small things named “genes” in our body.In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Mattaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts.Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do.By understanding what just one “word” means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.
Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people.Other people worry that when people begin to know more words and find out lots of other information, we might use it in a wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs.Man will have to meet a lot of trouble if DNA technology (技术) isn’t limited in use.
【1】When did we first know why we look like other people in our family?
A. In 1860. B. In 1953. C. In 1961. D. In 2000.
【2】What does the underlined word “genes” mean in the passage?
A. The “map” of DNA. B. A special language.

【3】What did the two scientists first discover in 1961?
A. The “map” of DNA. B. A new illness.
C. The language of DNA. D. A message of DNA.
【4】What can we do if we understand some “words” of the language inside the body?
A. Make people get new jobs. B. Make medicine for new illnesses.
C. Make maps of human. D. Make people less attractive.
【5】What do people think about DNA technology?
A. It can cause good or bad results. B. It can cause good results.
C. It can cause good results but won’t work. D. It can cause only bad results.
