A 14-year-old British student is packing for the next day of school: textbooks, notebooks, pens, 250 grams of flour, an egg and some cooking oil. Wait, what?

It’s not a joke.

From September, cookery will be a compulsory (必修的) course for kids aged 7-14 in the UK.

Primary school students will learn how to put things together and make simple, healthy food.

At high school, students will then master a number of different meals. They will also learn some cooking skills including baking.

Britain is sometimes known as a country with bad food and unhealthy eating habits. These new courses are part of the country’s effort to bring healthy food back onto the table.

“One in four British families no longer has a table that everyone can eat around. One out of every two meals we eat is eaten alone. Only four out of ten of us enjoy eating meals with our children,” British writer Joanna Blythman wrote in her book Bad Food Britain: How A Nation Ruined Its Appetite (食欲) in 2006.

Instead, ready meals have become the first choice for many British kids, because their parents are often too busy to cook a proper meal.

The Department for Education hopes that the cookery courses can introduce children to good food and reduce childhood obesity.

“It’s important that children can develop an interest and understanding of good food,” said a spokesman for the department.

“We want to encourage them to develop a love of food and cooking that will stay with them as they grow up.

1.Students under 14 in the UK _______.

A. are fond of cooking

B. love to eat junk food

C. will learn how to cook at school

D. have to prepare breakfast by themselves

2.From the passage, we can learn that _______.

A. many British people have unhealthy eating habits

B. people in Britain don’t love to eat around the table

C. parents cook meals for their kids although they are busy

D. many British people don’t like to eat with their families

3.The aim of the cookery course is to help children _______.

A. have a good appetite B. learn more life skills

C. learn to do housework at home D. enjoy eating and cooking healthy food

4.The underlined word “obesity” in the passage means _______ in Chinese.

A. 厌学B. 懒惰C. 肥胖D. 贪玩

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.

How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.

First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.

Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.

Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of parting. If you're saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.

1.Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.

A. for you to make more and more new friends

B. to begin your business talks

C. to get the conversation going smoothly

D. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others

2.After having asked somebody a question, it'll be polite of you to _______.

A. make clear what kind of person he is

B. listen to his reply attentively

C. wait quietly and patiently for his answer

D. go on asking him more questions

3.Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who _______.

A. are good at making any topic interesting

B. never talk too much or too little

C. always speak in a gentle way

D. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk

4.If you really want to meet someone again, _______.

A. you may take him as your lifelong true friend

B. it seems necessary for you to let him know it

C. it's proper for you to give him a second handshake

D. it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of him
