A new research shows that in Britain more and more people are returning to the old tradition that the whole family have a meal at table. Worrying about the obesity and breakdown of a family, people change their eating habits so greatly, according to analysis. They find the number of the family having a meal together increases by 5% from 2002 to 2004, and most people who have meals with their family come from the rich social class.

       The new discovery makes doctors and the people struggling against obesity extremely excited. Giving up the tradition that the whole family have a meal together is exactly one of the reasons for a series of problems including children’s overweight. If a child has a meal in front of the television or the computer alone, he will often eat some fast food.

       Jason Collins is one of the persons returning to the old tradition. Collins is a manager of a bake(烘面包) house. He finds after he gets used to having a meal at home with his child, the child becomes much more obedient(听话的). Dr. Jin is a child psychologist, and she expresses welcome to this result of the study.  She says it can make parents have a very good chance to chat with the child when the whole family have a meal together.

What makes people change their eating habit back to the old tradition in Britain?

A. Worrying about their children.        B. Worrying about some social problems.

C. Worrying about the living expense.  D. Worrying about health and family problems.

We can infer from the passage that _______.

A.people’s eating habit has much effect on their family

B. most rich people have meals with their family

C. most children have the problem of overweight

D. most children don’t like having dinner with the parents

An ancient Egyptian mummy thought to be that of Pharaoh Ramses I(法老一世)has returned home after more than 140 years in North American museums. The body was carried off the plane in Cairo in a box covered in Egypt’s flag.

       The Michael Carlos Museum gave it back after tests showed it was probably that of the man who ruled 3,000 years ago. The US museum acquired it three years ago from a Canadian museum, which in turn is thought to have bought it from Egyptian garve robbers in 1860. The mummy was welcomed back home with songs and military band music during a ceremony at the national museum in Cairo.

       Zahi Hawass, head of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities(文物最高委员会), traveled from the US with the body and said it would be moved next year to the Luxor Museum in southern Egypt. “We are not 100% sure that mummy is that of Ramses I,” said Mr. Hawass. “But we are 100% sure that it is of a king.”

       Atlanta’s Michael Carlos Museum acquired the mummy in 1999, but offered to return it after hi-tech scanning equipment indicated it was likely to be that of Ramses I. The museum website said it had been acquired from the Niagara Falls Museum. It is thought a Canadian collector bought the mummy for the Niagara Falls Museum around 1860 from an Egyptian family which had came across a tomb filled with royal mummies at a site near Luxor.

       Mr. Hawass praised the handover as “a great, civilized gesture”. And he appealed to other world museums to return Egypt’s antiquities, particularly the Rosetta Stone in the Britain Museum and the Bust of Nefertiti in the Berlin Museum.

Where was Ramses mummy kept in just before the handover?

       A. the Luxor Museum                        

B. the Michael Carlos Museum

       C. the Niagara Falls Museum              

D. a Canadian Museum

A. c-d-e-b-a          

B. c-b-e-d-a          

C. a-d-c-b-e          

D. c-d-b-e-a

Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

       A. All the Egypt’s antiquities have returned home after the handover.

       B. Niagara Falls Museum is an American museum.

       C. Buying the mummy from the Egyptian family was a civilized gesture.

       D. Ramses Mummy had been kept in Canada for more than a century.

What would be the best title for the passage?

       A. The history of Ramses mummy.

       B. The handover ceremony of Ramses mummy from Canada.

       C. The returning of Ramses mummy to its homeland Egypt.

       D. The history of the royal family of Ramses.
