【題目】閱讀理解B
MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a food additive (食品添加劑), which has been widely used by many food factories all over the world since it appeared first in Japan in 1909.
MSG is a substance that is added to some food to improve its original (原先的) taste and colour. It is used in foods around the world such as cakes, bread, frozen meats, fish and vegetables. In the beginning, people thought MSG was safe just like salt and sugar. However, in 1968 some people reported they seemed to have bad reactions (反應) to MSG after having had a meal at a restaurant. They included headaches and quick heartbeat (心跳). It was also reported that MSG excited a person's brain and caused his death in Japan. Scientists think that MSG may lead to many neurological disorders (神經(jīng)紊亂). In mice studies done by a university, the evidence showed the mice didn't want to eat the food including MSG.
Today many food companies “hide” MSG on food labels (標簽) by using different names. If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you are probably seeing a hidden way to “report” MSG in a food label. Every time we have a meal in a restaurant, we always feel the food very delicious to taste, but sometimes it is dangerous for our health because some poisonous food additives have been added to the food.
To protect people's health, our governments, from central to local, are taking actions to stop factories producing poisonous food additives.
(1)Monosodium Glutamate is _______.
A.a food
B.an additive
C.a factory
D.a country
(2)MSG is often used in _______.
A.frozen meats
B.cups
C.clothes
D.book covers
(3)The examples in the second paragraph tell us ________.
A.the food including MSG is delicious
B.people like to eat in a restaurant
C.mice like eating the food including MSG
D.MSG is not safe sometimes
(4)If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you will know________.
A.you must eat the food in a hidden way
B.the food label must be hidden
C.MSG is probably added to the food
D.you must report the food to your parents
(5)The underlined word “substance” in the article means __________.
A.colour

【題目】閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容,完成文章后的表格。注意:每個空格只填1個單詞。
Hollywood is a shiny, bright place. It is the movie capital of the world. And it is also one of the tourist destinations (目的地) in America. In 1911 the small, peaceful village of Hollywood in California was voted to become part of Los Angeles (洛杉磯). Today, over 100 years later, this village has grown into the home of one of the most well-known industries in the world — the American film industry.
With this growth came many well-known symbols. There is the famous Hollywood sign which stands above the hills of the town. The first sign was built in 1923. Then there is the Hollywood Hall of Fame (名人堂), where great actresses, actors and directors leave their footprints or handprints. Norma Talmadge was the first actress to do this in 1927. But the most famous of all is the Oscar Academy Awards. Every spring, a large number of actresses, actors and directors wait excitedly and nervously to find out if they have won an "Oscar". This year was the 85th Oscar Academy Awards. It was held on February 25 in Los Angeles. Ang Lee, a Chinese director, won the Award for Best Director again. It was the second time he had won the Award.
Nowadays it is the home of films, and thousands of hopeful young actresses, actors, writers and directors still come to "the Dream Factory" every year. But not all Hollywood dreams have been happy ones — as one actress, who later died tragically (悲慘地), said, "Hollywood is a place where they will pay you 500 dollars for a kiss, and 50 cents for your soul (靈魂)."
