    13．"Three apples have changed the world．One is for Eve，one is for Newton．The third is in the hands of Steve Jobs．"said someone．
    Steve Jobs was the former CEO of the Apple computer company in his parents'garage （车库） on April Fool's Day，1976．Through many years'hard work，Jobs and his Apple products were a great success．People believe he has made the world a better place．Many young people also think of Apple products as a fashion．

    1．There are many kinds of pollution around us，such as air pollution，noise pollution and light pollution．They are all bad for our health，and many people think that air pollution is the most serious．
    On October 26，1948，in the small town of Donora，people woke up to find themselves in a stagnant （不流动的） cloud of pollution．The sky wasn't clear any longer．Four days later，when the cloud finally lifted，20people were dead and over half the population-7，000people had become ill．
    Air pollution is one of the world's oldest environmental problems．By 1306，smoke was so common in London that the burning of coal wasn't allowed．More than 600years later，it was still a major problem when，in 1952，4000were killed by a week of London's"killer fog"．
    Now，at the beginning of the 21st century，we still can't breathe healthily．Although air quality （质量） has improved over the past few years，the Environmental Protection Agency （EPA） says that over 125million Americans breathe unhealthy air-almost half of the US population．Bad air causes more people to die than car accidents．Every day，14people in America die from asthma （哮喘）．Asthma is now the most common cause of going to hospitals among American children，and it is becoming more common among adults （成人） as well．
    In the world，air pollution is bad for the health of 5billion people a year，according to a study done by Cornell University．That's more than two thirds of the world's population．
    Perhaps the day will come when people will be able to breathe clean air in cities．Then the sunlight will no longer be blacked out by a smoke．

    61．People in Donora woke up to findA on October 26，1948．
    A．the polluted cloud
    B.20dead people
    C．the clear sky
    62．Before 1306，the air pollution in London might be mainly caused byB．
    A．the running of machines
    B．the burning of coal
    C．the moving of cars
    63．The underline word"major"means"C"in English．
    A．strange
    B．simple
    C．serious
    64．Every dayA people in America die from asthma．
    A.14         
    B.21   
    C.125
    65．The article mainly talks aboutB．
    A．a terrible disease
    B．air pollution
    C．the world's population．

    8．Does this ever happen to you？Someone introduces you to a friend，you hear his or her name，and then two minutes later，you forget it．Or you go to the same restaurant every day and the owner always says"Hello"to you but you can never remember her name．If this happens，you are typical-actually most people have the problem remembering names．
    Here are some ways that can help people remember names．
    ※Repeat the person's name loud at least three times while you talk together．For example，instead of saying"Nice to meet you．"say"Nice to meet you，Jack （for Sue or whatever the person's name is）．"Instead of saying"Where do you live？"you can say"Where do you live，Jack？"
    ※Introduce the person by name to someone else right away．
    ※Write the name down （with a little information about the person） as soon as possible．
    There are other ways which may seem a little strange．However，try them．
    ※Think of a story using the person's name．For example，think to yourself，"Jack has a nice jacket．"Imagine Jack in a nice jacket．
    ※Think of a rhyme（押韵）for the person's name．For example，think to yourself，"Jack would look nice in black．"Imagine Jack wearing black clothes．
    All these ways have one thing in common．You must pay attention to the people you meet．You can't just meet someone，nod your head，say hello，and walk away．Remembering names takes work and practice．

    根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误．正确的用"A"表示，不正确的用"B"表示．
    31．Few people have problems remembering others'names．B
    32．The word"typical"probably means"common"．A
    33．It may seem unusual to help remember a name by making up a story with it．A
    34．If you want to remember names easily，you must talk politely to the people you meet．B
    35．This passage mainly tells us how to get on well with others．B．

    18．阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项．
    Sometimes people are not clear about what kind of food is healthy，and what kind of food may do harm to our health．The USDA has prepared a food guide to help people learn about which kind of food is the healthiest to eat．The food guide describes six main food groups：meat （like fish and chicken），dairy （like milk and cheese），grains （like bread and rice），fruit and vegetables．The last group is fats and sweets．The USDA also suggests how much of each food group is healthy to eat daily．Though this guide was prepared by the US government，it is very useful for people all over the world．
    As a result of years of study，we know that too much animal fat is bad for our health．For example，Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small amount of grains，fruit and vegetables．Because of the way they eat，they have a high rate of cancer and heart disease．In Japan，people eat large amounts of grains and very little meat．The Japanese also have a very low rate of cancer and heart disease．The Japanese live longer than anyone else in the world．However，when Japanese people move to the US，the rate of heart disease and cancer goes up as their eating habit changes．And as hamburgers，ice creams and other high-fat foods become popular in Japan，the rate of heart disease and cancer is going up there as well．People are also eating more meat and dairy food in other countries，in which the disease rate is going up along with the change of the way people eat．Doctors everywhere suggest people eat more grains，fruit and vegetables and less meat and dairy food．
    Eating healthily is important for children as well as their parents．When parents have poor eating habits，their children usually do，too．After all，children eat in the same way as their parents．When parents eat healthy food，the children will learn to enjoy it，too．Then they will develop good eating habits．Doctors suggest parents give their children healthier food such as fruit，vegetables and juice．
    Everyone wants to live a long，healthy life．We know that the food we eat affects us in different ways．For example，doctors believe that fruit and vegetables can really protect people from many different diseases．On the other hand，animal fat can cause diseases．We can change our eating habits now and enjoy many years of healthy living．

    40．What is the USDA in the passage？B
    A．A group of doctors in the US．
    B．An office of the US government．
    C．A report on diseases in the US．
    D．An order given by the US President．
    41．What does the underlined word"result"mean in Chinese？A
    A．结果
    B．论文
    C．仪器
    D．程序
    42．The second paragraph mainly tells us thatD．
    A．Japanese are always healthier than Americans
    B．living in the US is not good for people's health
    C．if you eat too much fat you will have cancer
    D．the way we eat may cause some health problems
    43．The greatest help the passage gives us isB．
    A．to introduce a food guide to the world
    B．to suggest a way of eating for a healthy life
    C．to find the main cause of some serious diseases

    5．How do you eat potatoes？Potato chips and potato stewed with beef are popular choices．But can you imagine that in the future potatoes will be served as a staple food （主食） on your table？Potatoes are becoming China's fourth staple food after rice，wheat and corn，according to the Ministry of Agriculture in January，2015．This is a welcome move to make Chinese people's staple food more balanced and diversified （多样的）．
    But why is potato the choice？
    Potatoes are healthy and nutritious．They are a good source of vitamin C and potassium （钾）．A potato's vitamin C is as rich as 10 apples．What's more，potatoes are low in calories，only three fourths of the same amount of wheat and corn．So if you are worried about your weight，you can try changing to potatoes．
    Also，potatoes are easy to grow．They can be grown in the north and south during winter，spring and autumn．The plant is also able to bear drought．With China facing water shortages，potatoes can become a safe and reliable food．And some products made of potatoes can be stored longer than other staple foods．Flour that is made of potato can be stored for as long as 15 to 20 years，according to Beijing Times．
    With these advantages，the potato has long been a popular staple food in many Western countries such as the US and UK．They can be made into different foods including bread，cookies and pancakes．
    While in China，because of Chinese eating habits，the potato will be cooked differently．It will be made into noodles，steamed bread and other staple foods similar to those made of rice or wheat．
    So are you ready to have potato noodles or steamed bread for your next meal？

    34．The last sentence of the first paragraph infers thatB．
    A．Chinese people will have fewer staple foods
    B．Chinese people like to accept potatoes as one of the staple foods   
    C．potatoes will become the staple food instead of rice，wheat and corn
    D．potatoes chips and potato stewed with beef will make Chinese people's staple food more balanced
    35．Dtell（s） us why people choose potatoes as staple food．
    A．Paragraph 2     
    B．Paragraph 3     
    C．Paragraph 4    
    D．Paragraph 3 and 4
    36．Which of the following statements is TRUE？B
    A．An apple's vitamin C is much more than a potato's．
    B．Calories of potatoes are only 75% of the same amount of wheat and corn．
    C．Potatoes can be grown in the north and south all year around．
    D．Flour made of wheat can be stored longer than that made of potato
    37．According to the passage，we can learn thatA．
    A．a lot of western countries have used potatoes as staple food
    B．people need a lot of water to grow potatoes to make them safe
    C．to meet Chinese taste，potatoes will be made into bread，cookies and pancakes
    D．Chinese eating habits will be changed because potato will be cooked differently．

    3．Generally speaking，American food is not very thick in taste．Salads are much liked and are served all year round．Many Americans are trying to keep down their weight．This is shown in menus offering"low calorie （卡路里）"or"weight watchers"meals．In markets，one can find"No Cal"drinks （meaning without calories） such as cola．
    Many Americans drink coffee or tea with their meal．If a waiter in an American restaurant asks"Now or later？"．What he means is"Do you want coffee with your meal or later"．When eating out in the USA，we can ask for tea，milk，beer，and so on，if we prefer these to coffee．American restaurants cannot serve beer，wine，or liquor unless they are licensed to do so．
    The main dish in American meals is usually meat，chicken or fish，but more than one of these is hardly served at the same meal．
    Most Americans eat quickly during the day-that is，breakfast and lunch-unless it is a social，business，or family situation．The evening meal，however，is usually a family time．Racing through daytime meals is part of the"American pace"of life，for working hours are considered important．
    The nationwide fast-food restaurants are suitable for the ways of American eating．The standard （标准的） products，of nearly the same price，are served quickly，and taste the same whether bought in New York City or in Los Angeles．
    McDonald's is a popular restaurant．It offers many choices of hamburgers，French fries and"cokes"．These foods are rich in fats，sugar and salt．Often，they are the major meal of the day of many young working people．
