    The world's first hamburger doesn't come from where you think it comes from. It wasn't invented in the United States, and it didn't originate in Germany. No, the world's first hamburger comes from China.

    If you're scratching your head right now, you're not alone. But Chinese hamburgers are very real and they definitely predate the hamburgers we call our own in the U.S. Known as rou jia mo, which translates to "meat burger" or "meat sandwich", they consist of chopped meat inside a pita-like bun, and they've been around since the Qin Dynasty, from about 221 BC to 207 BC. Despite the differences between this Chinese street food and our American-style burgers, the rou jia mo has been called the world's first hamburger.

    The rou jia mo originated in the Shanxi Province of China, and is now eaten all over the country. It's typically prepared and eaten on the street. The dough for the bun, or mo, consists of a simple mixture of wheat flour, water and maybe yeast. Of course recipes may vary, but this basic equation makes for a chewy and subtle pillow for the delicious filling. While the mo is traditionally baked in a clay oven, today it's often fried in a pan. They may look a little like Chinese steamed buns or baozi, but the dough for those are, of course, steamed, not baked or fried.

    The meat filling might consist of chopped pork, beef, lamb or chicken that has been stewed with a variety of spices, like ginger, cloves, coriander and star anise. You might also find herbs like cilantro or greens like lettuce garnishing the sandwich.

    1.What does the underlined word mean?

    A. noodle B. food C. bread D. beverage

    2.Which of the following is TRUE?

    A. The mo people eat today is baked in a clay oven.

    B. The world's first hamburger which was originated in the Shanxi Province of China is popular around the world.

    C. The rou jia mo has a history of more than 2200 years.

    D. The rou jia mo and American-style burgers share a similar cooking process.

    3.What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. Delicious hamburger

    B. How to cook hamburger

    C. Chinese invented hamburger

    D. History of hamburger

    If you admitted to an university in China, regardless by whatever you choose as your major, there's one compulsory course that you can not avoid it: English. The fact is what you can probably miss attending English classes when other course are taught, but you'd better take English serious. Failing in the national College English Test, you may not be able to secure you Bachelor's degree, even if you have your own major doing well. Each student learn a foreign language, mostly English, from Day One of their compulsory education. Such policy has been in place since the nation's reform and opening up in the early 1980s.

    Nobel Prize Winner Studied How People Spent Their Money

    The winner of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences studies how people spend their money.__ 1.__The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences is presenting the Economics Prize to Professor Angus Deaton of Princeton University in New Jersey. The Nobel committee says his research has mainly dealt with three questions：__2.__How much of society's wealth is spent and how much is saved? And, how do we best measure and study well?being and poverty?

    Mr. Deaton used household surveys to collect detailed information about how families spend their money. People often asked him the question why he paid so much attention to household information. __3.__“Well, it's individually... it's about people in the end. You have to understand what makes people tick, and what's good for them. And for me it's always been about trying to understand behavior and to try to infer from that behavior, you know, how people are doing.”

    The Nobel committee said Mr. Deaton's research has shown “how the clever use of household data can shed light on(阐明)issues such as the relationship between income and calorie intake, and the extent of gender discrimination with the family.”__4.__rather than theoretical ideas.

At a press conference last month, the Nobel Prize winner said he was pleased that his work had been recognized. __5._“I think we have had a remarkable decrease for the past 20 to 30 years. I do expect that to continue，” he said.

    D. He said that his studies were mainly about people and their behavior.

    E. He also has explored how spending can affect both living conditions and poverty.

    F. He examined the close relationship between poverty and the amount of calories in the food people ate

    G. The Nobel committee also praised Mr. Deaton's work because it used detailed information about real people

    Thinking is something you choose to do as a fish choose to live in water. To be human is to think. But thinking may come naturally without your knowing how you do it. Thinking about thinking is the key to critical（判断性的） thinking. When you think critically, you take control of your thinking processes(过程). Otherwise, you might be controlled by the ideas of others. Indeed, critical thinking is at the heart of educa­tion.

    The word “critical” here has a special meaning. It does not mean taking one view against another view, as when someone criticizes another person for doing something wrong. The nature of critical thinking is thinking beyond the easily seen—beyond the pictures on TV, the untrue reports in the newspapers, and the faulty reasoning.

    Critical thinking is an attitude as much as an activity. If you are curious about life and desire to dig dee­per into it, you are a critical thinker. If you find pleasure in deep thinking about different ideas, characters, and facts, you are a critical thinker.

    Activities of the mind and higher-order reasoning are processes of deep and careful consideration. They take time, and do not go hand in hand with the fast speed in today’s world: fast foods, instant coffee, and self-developing film. If you are among the people who believe that speed is a measure of intelligence（智力）, you may learn something new from a story about Albert Einstein. The first time Banesh Hoffman, a scien­tist, was to discuss his work with Albert Einstein, Hoffman was too nervous to speak. But Einstein immedi­ately put Hoffman at ease by saying, “Please go slowly. I don’t understand things quickly.”

    1.Critical thinking is important to us because if we do not think critically, ______.

    A. it will be hard for us to think naturally and fast

    B. we might be controlled by other people’s ideas

    C. we will follow the ideas of others naturally

    D. we might be fooled by other people’s ideas

    2.If you are a critical thinker, you will ______.

    A. think deeply about different ideas

    B. trust the reports in the newspapers

    C. take one view against another view

    D. criticize other people for their mistakes

    3.In the last paragraph, “something new” suggests that ______

    A. the smarter you are , the faster you do things

    B. the faster you do things, the smarter you become

    C. speed can improve intelligence

    D. intelligence is not decided by speed

    4.What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. Thinking and Critical Thinking

    B. Understanding Critical Thinking

    C. Thinking is Natural and Human

    D. Thinking Fast Means Intelligence
