Poorest countries facing both obesity and malnutrition A third of the poorest countries in the world are dealing with high levels of obesity as well as under-nourishment, which leaves people too thin, according to a report in The Lancet. It says the problem is caused by global 【1】 to ultra - processed foods, and people exercising less. The authors are calling for changes to the “modern food system” which they believe is the 【2】 of it. Countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia are most affected. The report 【3】 that nearly 2.3 billion children and adults on the planet are overweight, and more than 150 million children have undersized growth. And many low and middle-income countries are facing these two 【4】 at the same time -- known as the ‘double burden of malnutrition’. This means that 20% of people are overweight, 30% of children under four are not growing 【5】, and 20% of women are classified as thin. Failing food systems The report authors say action should be taken by governments, the United Nations and academics to 【6】 the problem, and it points the finger at changing diets. The way people eat, drink and move is changing. Increasing numbers of supermarkets, easy availability of less 【7】 food, as well as a decrease in 【8】 activity, are leading to more people becoming overweight. And these changes are affecting low and middle-income countries, as well as high-income ones. Although undersized growth of children in many countries is becoming less frequent, eating ultra-processed foods early in life is 【9】 with poor growth. “We are facing a new nutrition reality,” says lead author Dr Francesco Branca, director of the department of nutrition for health and development at the World Health Organization. “We can no longer 【10】 countries as low-income and undernourished, or high-income and only concerned with obesity.

When my old dog developed major health problems, I knew that watching him fail would be painful, but I wasn’t prepared for the powerful lessons he’d offer in the last year of his life. Chance was 14 when the problems started. First, he developed a cancer that left him whistling for breath. Then came cataracts（白内障）in both eyes, arthritis（关节炎）in his legs, and a series of mini-strokes（小中风）that threw off his balance. Any one of these misfortunes would have left me begging for relief, but Chance became calmer as the disabilities piled up. When leg pain left him frozen on the floor, unable to rise for a quick pat as I came home, he didn’t complain. He just lay there patiently, signaling me with his hammering tail, each movement spelling out the value of waiting for the things you want. When his cataracts made steering impossible after dark, he’d stand calmly until I could guide him inside, proving how easy it is to find happiness if you let go of your pride and insecurities and learn to lean on those who love you. When mini-strokes had him walk unsteadily like a drunk, he taught the value of persistence. For days after each attack, he’d fall as he moved about. Yet again and again he’d try to walk, each day moving a few more steps until finally he was able to get outside and back by himself. There were lessons in so much of what he did, but the key one surely was the importance of obtaining all the joy possible from each experience whether it’s a day lazing under a warm sun or a few minutes appreciating a favorite meal. For most of our life together, Chance was always rushing ahead, searching out new adventures, then circling back to let me know what lay around the next turn. As an old dog, he did the same thing, using his attitude, instead of his once - fast legs, to show the way. 【1】Chance suffered very much from all the diseases he had except for _______. A.having problem with breath B.walking around awkwardly C.having trouble drinking D.losing his eyesight in darkness 【2】_______ is the most important lesson the author learned from Chance. A.Living in the present and enjoying what we have B.Learning to depend on those who we love and trust C.That we should expect good things to happen patiently D.That we should persevere in what we believe is worth trying 【3】It is implied in the passage that _______. A.people might suffer from different diseases when they grow old B.people could face aging with courage and dignity C.pets would become calmer for lack of energy in their last days D.pets and masters should stick together helping each other in difficulty 【4】Which of the following words best describes the author’s feelings to Chance? A.Bitter. B.Appreciative. C.Proud. D.Sympathetic.

For the most part, it seems, workers in rich countries have little to fear from globalization, and a lot to gain. But is the same thing true for workers in poor countries? The answer is that they are ever more likely than their rich-country counterparts to benefit, because they have less to lose and more to gain. Traditional economics takes an optimistic line on integration（整合）and the developing countries. Openness to foreign trade and investment should encourage capital to flow to poor economies. In the developing world, capital is scarce, so the returns on investment there should be higher than in the industrialized countries, where the best opportunities to make money by adding capital to labour have already been used up. If poor countries lower their barriers to trade and investment, the theory goes, rich foreigners will want to send to over some of their capital. If this inflow of resources arrives in the form of loans or portfolio investment（组合投资）, it will top up domestic savings and loosen the financial restriction on additional investment by local companies. If it arrives in the form of new foreign - controlled operations, FDI, so much the better; this kind of capital brings technology and skills from abroad packaged along with it, with less financial risk as well. In either case, the addition to investment ought to push incomes up, partly by raising the demand for labour and partly by making labour more productive. This is why workers in FDI - receiving countries should be in an even better position to profit from integration than workers in FDI - sending countries. Also, with or without inflows of foreign capital, the same gains from trade should apply in developing countries as in rich ones. This gains from trade logic often arouses suspicion, because the benefits seem to come from nowhere. Surely one side or the other must lose. Not so. The benefits that a rich country gets through trade do not come at the expense of its poor country trading partners, or vice versa, Recall that according to the theory, trade is a positive sum game. In all these trades, both sides -- exporters and importers, borrowers and leaders, shareholders and workers can gain. 【1】Why are workers in poor countries more likely to benefit from the process of globalization? A.The can get more chances to gain a good job. B.They have less to lose and more to gain. C.They have nothing to lose. D.They can get more financial aid. 【2】What can be the final result of the inflow of the resource? A.It will top up domestic savings. B.It will loosen the financial restriction. C.It will push people’s incomes up. D.It will bring technology and skills from abroad. 【3】What can we know from the last paragraph? A.Poor countries get the most profit during the process of trade. B.Rich countries get profit from trade at poor countries’ expense. C.Poor countries get more profit from trade than rich ones. D.All aspects involved in the trade can get benefit.

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Once again, DC Comics and Warner Bros, have divided fans and critics -- over the superhero film Justice League. 【1】 There are a log of reshoots of scenes. A new director was brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder’s tragic loss of his daughter. Of course, there was a lot of talk about Ben Affleck’s future in the role of Batman. Some people are saying that Justice League is another big disappointment. They say it could have been incredible and instead fails to really entertain. Others say that Warner Bros have finally got it right and that the future for the League looks bright. My opinion lies somewhere in the middle. The film was by no means a disappointment: It was both exciting and funny to watch. There is something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen. 【2】 However, I will say that a lot more work needs to be done if the producer wants to guarantee success in the future. Although the film was good, it was obvious which scenes had been reshot and how the characters had been changed. 【3】 These are the kinds of problems that you don’t expect to see in a film with such a big budget. Another point to add is that it is good to see the producer making Superman a somewhat brighter character and adding some jokes to the plot to add to the fun, though there is , sadly, no post-credits scene（“彩蛋”）. The producer must be careful, however, not to make the same mistake as many others in the industry have:making bright and colorful movies with rather poor stores. Justice League is not a perfect film, but it is definitely not a terrible one. 【4】. For me, I hope that DC does not completely lose its darker side. A.I also have to mention the several scenes in which the special effects were very badly done. B.There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release. C.As far as I am concerned, the film is a marvel. D.Definitely, a lot of work is still to be done. E.Whether the film will be well received, especially among the young, still remains to be seen. F.Perhaps that is affecting my opinion.
