A man walks into a doctor’s office. He has a cucumber up his nose, a carrot in his left ear and a banana in his right ear. “What’s the matter with me?” he asks the doctor. The doctor replies, “You’re not eating properly.”
This is a popular joke among British schoolchildren. It reflects Britain’s famous dry and satirical way of seeing the funny side of life. This unique sense of humor is often cited as one of Britain’s defining national characteristics.
“The famous British sense of humor has long been our most cherished national characteristic,” says the British journalist Leo Mckinstry. “We have valued it above historic military victories and great works of literature, above our rich scenic landscape and our talent for invention.”
The British sense of humor differs from other countries because it is generally more negative. When it comes to making the British laugh, there is nothing more effective than a socially inappropriate joke.
Popular British comedy shows such as Fawlty Towers, Blackadder and The office are full of sarcasm(讽刺), teasing and self-deprecation(自嘲). It reflects the culture where mocking, moaning and ridicule is part of everyday life.
While most Britons don’t take these jokes too seriously, foreigners are often puzzled by them. A recent survey found that most foreigners who visited Britain found that the British are “arrogant, unfriendly and have almost no sense of humor”.
Do foreigners not understand British humor or are the British just not as funny as they think they are? Mckinstry certainly thinks the British are funny. “Accusing the British of having no sense of humor is like telling Rolls-Royce that its cars are down-market.” he says.
1.What does the doctor actually mean by the remark, “You’re not eating properly”?
A. What you have had is the cause of these problems.
B. You are not having the right food.
C. You don’t eat the way people usually do.
D. You eat with the wrong cutlery(餐具)
2.The word “dry” in Paragraph 2 means _________.
A. without water or liquid inside
B. special and popular among school children
C. dull and meaningless
D. pretending to be serious when really joking
3.Why do most visitors, who once visited Britain , think that the British are unfriendly?
A. Because the British always take things seriously.
B. Because the British have no sense of humor.
C. Because the British are cold and difficult to get along with
D. Because the British have a different sense of humor
4.Which of the following are NOT the characteristics of British humor?
A. Dry and satirical B. Negative and mocking
C. Encouraging and gentle D. Clever and witty

When you buy cooking oil in the supermarket, you may notice that some brands are labeled as “GM (genetically modified)－free”. So, what is genetic modification? Are GM foods safe?
These questions have been put back into the spotlight recently. On Nov 19, the Food and Drug Administrati0n (FDA) in the US announced that it had approved the AquAdvantage salmon to go on the market, making it the first genetically modified animal to be approved as food anywhere in the world.
GM foods are plants or animals that have been given a gene from another plant or animal to make them stronger in some way. The AquAdvantage salmon contains a gene from another type of salmon that makes it grow faster.
Although the FDA has said “food from the fish is safe to eat”, some believe that scientists can’t completely understand the potential health risks of GM foods, simply because they’re so new. Others worry that the fish could escape into the wild and cause ecological problems.
GM crops have experienced the same controversy, even though GM technology cuts down on the use of pesticides on crops and increases yields.
While GM animals are new, GM crops have already appeared on our plates: A total of 28 countries in the world including the US, Brazil and India planted 181.5 million hectares (1.815 million km2) of GM crops in 2014, according to the International Service for tile Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications. In China, we grow GM cotton and papaya and import GM soybeans, corn, rape, cotton and beets from abroad.
Due to safety worries, many countries have regulations for producing and selling GM food.
In European Union countries, each GM food must be approved before it can be used. This process can take up to 17 months. The origin of all GM foods must also be traceable, and all food with a GM content of more than 0.9 percent must also be labeled, according to EU website europa.eu.
The US is less strict about GM foods. According to FDA regulations, companies introducing new GM foods to the market should report them at least 120 days before release. The labeling is voluntary, except that a product cannot be labeled as “GM-free” if genetically modified materials are used.
In China, GM foods can only be produced after strict tests by the Ministry of Agriculture say that they are safe. All food that is made from GM crops or contains GM ingredients must be clearly labeled on the wrapper.
1.According to the text, the AquAdvantage salmon .
A. tastes better than normal salmon
B. is a product that mixes several types of fish
C. has a gene from a different type of salmon
D. remains to be approved in several countries
2.One of the reasons for many people to worry about the AquAdvantage salmon is that .
A. the gene that makes them grow faster can work on humans too
B. there are possible health risks that even scientists might not have figured out yet
C. they could possibly become threats to other wild species
D. they are not nutritious enough or might taste strange
3.From-the text, it can be concluded that GM crops .
A. no longer cause any controversy
B. have already been planted in some countries
C. are popular because they don’t need pesticides
D. can increase yields, making them welcome in countries like Japan
4.Which of the following is TRUE about regulations for producing and selling GM food?
A. All food with GM content must be labeled in European countries.
B. In the US, the AquAdvantage salmon will have to be labeled as GM food.
C. In France or Germany, every GM food that is about to go on the market must be reported at least 120 days before release.
D. In China, all food that is made from GM crops or contains GM ingredients must be clearly labeled on the package.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time—about eight hours after you wake up—your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap—even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful．

A. Because you eat too much for lunch．

B. Doctors need to take naps while employers don’t．
C. If you take naps every day, you’ll never suffer from heart disease．
D. Taking naps regularly is beneficial to people’s health．
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. You’ll feel sleepy at regular intervals（间隔）.
B. Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.
C. You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.
D. If you get up at 6:30 am, you’d better take a nap at about 1:30 pm.
