【題目】

Some insects, such as butterflies and ladybugs, are quite beautiful. But, did you know that many bugs are also edible and are filled with protein?

Aletheia Price knows this—and a lot more—about bugs. She also thinks you should try eating some. If you visit the website www.eatbug.com, you will find all kinds of information about edible insects. Most of it was written by Aletheia Price when she was fifteen years old. Aletheia started eating bugs at the age of thirteen. Before long, she found that she really enjoyed some of them. She also became interested in finding out more about which kinds of bugs could be eaten and how to cook them.

According to Aletheia, there are at least 1,462 kinds of edible insects. (Doesn’t that make you wonder who tried all of them and decided they were edible?) Some of her favorite dishes include mealworm chocolate chip cookies, ant tacos(玉米卷), and chocolate-covered crickets(蟋蟀). On her website she has recipes for insect entrees(開胃菜) and some helpful tips. For example, when preparing crickets, it is best to remove their legs before cooking, for the legs tend to get stuck in your teeth. She also offers information for anyone who wants to raise bugs for food.

Aletheia realizes that eating bugs is not for everyone. But, if you think about it, you have to admit that eating bugs might be a good idea. There are billions and billions of bugs in this world. If we could get used to eating them, we would have plenty of food for everyone.

【1】When Aletheia was 13, she _________.

A.wrote articles about bugs

B.ate bugs for the first time

C.taught people how to cook bugs

D.studied nutritional value of bugs

【2】On Aletheia’s website, you can find information on ________.

A.names of restaurants to serve bugsB.how to keep bugs as pets

C.tips on cooking and eating bugsD.where to catch bugs for food

【3】In Aletheia’s opinion, eating bugs can help ________.

B.solve the food supply problem

C.make your life more interesting

D.make the old and the young stronger

【答案】

【1】B

【2】C

【3】B

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。許多昆蟲是可以食用的。Aletheia Price在13歲時開始食用蟲子，她對昆蟲了解很多。她發(fā)現(xiàn)有至少1462種昆蟲是可食用的。她還創(chuàng)立了自己的網(wǎng)站，網(wǎng)站上有如何烹飪可食用蟲子的食譜和有用的建議。在Aletheia看來，吃蟲子可以幫助解決食物供應(yīng)問題。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中Aletheia started eating bugs at the age of thirteen.（Aletheia從十三歲開始吃蟲子。）可知當(dāng)Aletheia十三歲時，她第一次吃了蟲子。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中On her website she has recipes for insect entrees(開胃菜) and some helpful tips.（在她的網(wǎng)站上，她有昆蟲主菜的食譜和一些有用的建議。）可知在Aletheia的網(wǎng)站上，你可以找到烹飪和吃蟲子的建議。故選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句If we could get used to eating them, we would have plenty of food for everyone.（如果我們能習(xí)慣吃它們，我們就會有足夠的食物給每個人。）可知在Aletheia看來，吃蟲子可以幫助解決食物供應(yīng)問題。故選B。

As the saying goes, chance favored the prepared mind. I learned this from one of my experience.

I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me but pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another tryout arrived, I was full prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team.

From this, I am firmly convincing that we are able to seize a chance as long as I get well prepared.

【題目】 As e-cigarettes become more popular, fewer people are taking up smoking traditional cigarettes. But can e-cigarettes, an electronic nicotine delivery system, help people quit smoking altogether? The answer is probably yes. A study led by Matthew Carpenter, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina found that e-smokers tend to smoke less and have increased quit attempts.

In the pilot study, Carpenter evaluated e-cigarettes in terms of usage, product preference, changes in smoking behaviors and nicotine exposure. Ninety subjects were evaluated：45 were randomized to use e-cigarettes, and 45 were randomized to a control group. Everyone was followed over a period of four months. The study was published in Cancer Epidemiology in November and is one of the few randomized studies in the U. S. to examine the effects of e-cigarettes.

Results showed that when smokers were given e-cigarettes, uptake was strong. Many participants rated the e-cigarettes similar to their usual product, suggesting that e-cigarettes might give smokers a suitable alternative to combustible（燃燒的）cigarettes. E-cigarettes offer significantly less exposure to harmful toxicants and therefore are safer. People using e-cigarettes throughout the study smoked an average of 37 percent fewer cigarettes, as compared to those in the control group, showing a positive effect when making the switch and potentially serving as a tool to help smokers quit.

That's good news for Carpenter and his colleagues. Smoking is the leading cause of cancer and has a negative impact on the effectiveness of cancer treatments. People who quit smoking, regardless of their ages, have substantial gains in life expectancy（預(yù)期壽命）compared with those who continue to smoke.

Carpenter cautions that while e-cigarettes may help people smoke less or even quit, they are not for everyone. "It is important to protect non-smokers, particularly adolescents, from starting any nicotine-containing product. "

More than 1,500 varieties of e-cigarettes are now available, including different looks, high-tech power settings and many flavors. All these make them more appealing to kids. In fact, e-cigarettes are more popular than conventional cigarettes among youth. "All these should raise our alarm bells," he said.

E-cigarettes were only recently regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. Largely manufactured overseas, the quality control process varies, he says. Without enough information to answer the long-term public health issues of e-cigarettes, researchers like Carpenter are aware of the importance of further studies on the latest tobacco trends. Combustible cigarettes have been around for many decades. E-cigarettes have not, and the science has a lot of questions left to answer, he said.

【1】Which of the following is TRUE about Professor Carpenter's experiment on e-cigarettes?

A. The test groups include conventional smokers, e-smokers and non-smokers.

B. E-cigarettes expose smokers to fewer poisonous substances.

C. Many participants don't think e-cigarettes as good as traditional ones.

D. It is one of the few studies to test the effects of smoking.

【2】After reading the passage, we may infer that_______.

A. most e-cigarette smokers will finally give up smoking

B. there are more e-smokers than traditional smokes in the USA

C. many adolescents are attracted to e-cigarettes due to their low prices

D. carpenter is worried about the e-cigarettes' popularity among children

【3】What can be concluded from the last paragraph?

A. E-cigarettes are faced with many problems and need more study.

B. The U. S. government should strengthen its regulation over e-cigarettes.

C. Smokers should be cautious because of e-cigarettes' low quality.

D. Researchers are concerned about e-cigarettes' harm to people's health.

【4】What is the structure of the passage?___

（①to ⑦represent Paragraphs 1 to 7）

A. B.

C. D.

These days, breaking traffic rules and littering were not uncommon, causing serious harms to life and the environment. That requires lots of effort to change this situation on the part of everyone. As for me, I should start from little things and it won’t be long since I acquire good habits. If I ride a bike, I’ll always keep to the right but never cross a road until the traffic light turns green. If I walk, I’ll never forget use the pedestrian crossing. Meanwhile, I will regard it as my duty to help keep our environment clean and health. Not only will I keep myself on littering and spitting, I will also help clean up the roadside litter whenever be possible. I hope my behavior will make the difference.

Over the last few years,my family and I had started working towards a greener life.My mum and dad drive less and often take bus to work.They are carefully to save gas when they cook.We recycle things and we give old clothes and furnitures to the people in need.

I believe there is a lot more they can do.For example,we will try to use less water by turning on the tap when we brush our teeth.Taking shorter showers will help,either.

Save the planet needs everyone's effort.Although each one of us may only do a little,but together we can make a big different.
