The adolescent girl from Tennessee was standing on the stage of a drama summer camp in New York. It was a beautiful day. But the girl didn’t feel beautiful. She was not the leggy, attractive Hollywood type. In fact, she described herself as stupid. Her name is Reese Witherspoon. Since Reese Witherspoon was six years old, she had admired and respected Dolly Patton, who was a famous country singer. For three years she had gone all out to act, dance and sing, fancying that she could be another dolly Patton. However, at the end of the camp her coaches told her to forget about singing. They suggested she think about another career. She took their words to heart. After all. why shouldn’t she believe the professionals? But back at home in Nashville, her mother-a funny, happy, optimistic woman-wouldn’t let her feel depressed. Her father, a physician, encouraged her to achieve in school. So she worked hard at everything and was accepted at Stanford University. And at 19, she got a part in a low-budget movie called Freeway, which prepared for her role in the movie Pleasantville. But her big break came with Legally Blonde. “If you can’t sing and you aren’t charming, play to your strengths. If you’re going to make it in this business, better focus on what you’re good at,” she told the interviewer later. And then came the offer that took her back to her Nashville-playing the wife of a country star Johnny Cash, a singing role. All of a sudden the old fears learned on that summer stage were back. She was so nervous on the stage. But she didn’t give up on the movie or herself. She spent 6 months taking singing lessons again. She learned to play the Autoharp. And the hard work built up her confidence. Last March, Reese Witherspoon walked up on another stage, the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, and accepted the Oscar as Best Actress for her heartbreaking, heartwarming singing role as June Carter Cash in Walk the Line. 【1】Why was Reese Witherspoon sad at the end of the camp? A. She was described foolish B. She was told to give up singing C .She failed to be famous D. She had to go back home 【2】What was Reese’s parents’ response after her coaches suggested her giving up singing? A. They agreed with her coaches B. They only focused on her study C. They ignored her frustration D. They encouraged her 【3】How did Reese succeed in playing the singing role? A. By regaining her confidence through hard work B. By practicing autoharp for over 6 months C. By making herself leggy and attractive D. By forgetting that summer stage 【4】Which is the best title for the passage? A. A successful actress B. Reese Witherspoon C. Never give up D. Fortune is important |

Food experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it's been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing(冲洗) off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria. The do-not-wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn't caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important. But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it's not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging. The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli (大肠杆菌) and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking. To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren't out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours. 【1】People don't accept USDA's advice because _______. A.the advice is relatively new. B.cooks clean the turkey before cooking it. C.cleaning seems more trustworthy. D.heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food. 【2】What can be concluded from Paragraph 4? A.Food packages carry germs. B.Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not. C.Hands and surfaces are easy to get E coli. D.Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs. 【3】Which way may help to cook a turkey safely? A.Rinse off the turkey before it is heated. B.Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator. C.Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey. D.Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey. 【4】From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken? A.Cooking. B.Technology. C.Science. D.Medicine. |

Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a nonspecific but stable change. For many people, the hightech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical, health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature. In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle. However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods must be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fastgrowing and underfed populations, the matter is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks? The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the world's population reached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of childbearing age don' t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats.As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness. How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops. Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, poor soil and crop viruses. 【1】The passage mainly talks about________. A. the world's food problem B. the development in biotech C. the genetically modified foods D. the way to solve food shortages 【2】According to the passage, GM foods________. A. will replace naturally grown foods B. are far better than naturally grown foods C. may help to solve the problem of poor nutrition D. can cause serious trouble in developing countries 【3】The underlined sentence “The genetic genie is out of the bottle.” in Paragraph 2 probably means that________. A. GM foods are available everywhere B. the technology in producing GM foods is advanced C. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powers D. genetic technology has come out of laboratories into markets 【41】What's the writer's attitude towards GM foods? A. Enthusiastic. B. Cautious. C. Disapproving. D. Unbelievable. |

Many children like to eat snacks in everyday life, and some of them even have snacks during dinner. To maintain the normal meals and stay healthy, it is necessary to regularly eat snacks for children in their spare time.【1】 Prepare healthy snacks in advance. When you make something yourself, you get to control the ingredients(原料）and put in what's good for you! You can also keep plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables at home to take on the go. 【2】Keep the servings in bags in the fridge, ready to grab and go. Keep healthy snacks with you. Make it a habit to store some fruit, whole-grain crackers, or baby carrots in your backpack so you always have some healthy food nearby. Half a cheese sandwich also makes a great snack to have on standby(备用). 【3】 Healthy snacking doesn't have to be boring as long as you give yourself a variety of choices. Whole-wheat biscuits with peanut butter or low fat fruit yogurt are healthy, tasty, and easy. Satisfy cravings(渴望）with healthier approaches. 【4】An 8-ounce mug of hot chocolate has only 140 calories and 3 grams of fat. A chocolate bar, on the other hand, has 230 calories and 13 grams of fat. Evenings can be a tempting time to have sugary, fatty snacks. If you're really feeling hungry, don't ignore it. 【5】Whole-wheat bread, rice cakes, or popcorn can do the trick, so can fruit paired with cheese or yogurt. A.Make it interesting. B.Instead, pick the right snacks to fill the hunger gap. C.Read serving size information. D.Cut up melons or vegetables in advance. E.If you like to do some cooking about snacks, you can follow the following ways. F.Here are some ways to make healthy snacking part of your daily routine. G.If you're crazy for chocolate, try a hot chocolate drink instead of a chocolate bar. |

Some decisions are very important that they shouldn't be made without talking to others first. There have several advantages if you consult the persons you trust. For one thing, they can give you valuable advise and they may point out some 、things you may have been overlooked. For another, friends may stop you make big mistakes. When consulting others about important decisions, you should keep two things of mind. The first one is that you need to find someone whom you respect enough to trust their judgment. The second thing to consider is how to do if you disagree with this person. Maybe turning to a third or fourth person for help is the best option.
