28、Jeremy grew up being active in sports. But he never thought about healthy eating until he found himself gaining weight several years after college. Last week, Jeremy hit a turning point when he found that he was too out of shape to play in a company football team. He decided to change his eating habits.
The first step Jeremy took toward healthy eating was to stop going to fast-food restaurants. Jeremy used to eat fast food as often as 4 times a week. To his surprise, he found that giving up fast food wasn't that difficult. Now, he says, "I don't even like it anymore." When Jeremy does go out to eat, he tries to pick menu items that he knows are healthier. He orders salads and lower-fat sandwiches instead of hamburgers, and he drinks water instead of soda pop. "I try to order things that are already prepared the way I would like them to be prepared."
Planning meals has been a key to Jeremy's success. It helps him avoid getting too hungry and eating fast food. Each week he plans what he will eat for each meal, and he shops for groceries(食品杂货)with his plan in mind. "It's a lot easier to make healthy choices when you're just planning ahead for it." Rather than cutting out certain foods, Jeremy sometimes includes his favourite foods in his eating plan. "That way I don't feel like I'm letting myself down by not sticking to my plan.
Jeremy's friends and family noticed when he started eating healthier. They have helped him to make a habit of his healthy eating changes. "It made me feel pretty good, especially when people started making comments about the changes I was making," he says. "You just get the positive energy."
【1】What made Jeremy decide to change his eating habits?

29、 About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it’s safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases, a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the differences between green and blue. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shade of green-a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of cones in our eyes, we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.
【1】Why do some people say it’s safer to be driven by women?
A.Women are more careful.
B.There are fewer color-blind women.
C.Women are fonder of driving than men.
D.Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
【2】Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?
A.Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.
B.None of them can see deep red.
C.None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.
D.All of them see everything in shades of green.
【3】According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can____
A.tell different shapes
B.see in a weak light
C.tell different colors
D.kill mosquitoes
【4】In which magazine would you most likely find this passage?
A.International Eye Science
B.Let’s Explore Nature
C.Collections of Women’s Studies
D.Global Warning News

Today, many museums are among the most visited ________ in the world. In order to figure out how this important cultural phenomenon came to be, it is important to understand its origins and trace how its role has ________ over time.
The word museum ________ from “mouseion”, the Greek term for “a holy place for the Muses”. In classical Greek mythology, the nine Muses are the goddesses of the arts and sciences, making them perfect protectors for these ________ institutions.
Earliest museums were private collections and were only accessible to a narrow circle of people. They displayed ________ and curious natural objects and works of art. Some of them even ________ “wonder rooms” or “cabinets of curiosities”.

Believing that “the knowledge of Nature is very necessary to human life and health,” Ashmole wanted to ________ the public through his unprecedented (前所未有的) donation. Following his footsteps, many like-minded collectors across Europe shifted their focus from ________ use to public access in the late 17th and 18th centuries. During this time, world-class museums began to make their art collections accessible to the public. The opening of these institutions ________ a string of similar movements in the 19th century.
Today, the importance of public institutions is stronger than ever before. ________ taking care of collections and making them accessible to the public, many museums are using new technologies to improve their public programs, ________ their collections, and share their research. With these modern methods, museums are able to ________ audiences in new ways and extend their tasks beyond their walls.

31、 (一) Not that Charlie’s own life was easy! He was born in a poor family 【1】 1889. His parents were both music hall 【2】 (perform). You may find 【3】 astonishing that Charlie 【4】 (teach) to sing as soon as he could speak and dance as soon as he could walk. Such training was common in acting families at this time, especially 【5】 the family income was often uncertain. 【6】 (luck), his father died, 【7】 (leave) the family even 【8】 (bad) off, so Charlie spent his childhood looking 【9】 his mother and his brother. By his teens, Charlie had, through his humour, become one of the 【10】 (popular) child actors in England. He could mime and act the fool doing ordinary everyday tasks. No one was ever bored watching him – his subtle acting made everything entertaining.

In the same way that people communicate with spoken language, they also express their feelings using 【14】 (speak) “language” through physical distance, actions or posture. English people, for example, do not usually stand very close to 【15】 or touch strangers as soon as they meet. However, people from places 【16】 Spain, Italy or South American countries approach others 【17】 (close) and are more likely to touch them. Most people around the world now greet each other 【18】 shaking hands, 【19】 some cultures use other greetings as well, such as the Japanese, 【20】 prefer to bow.
