When looking at Western Europe, we don’t usually think about poverty—but in fact, some people in modern-day Britain are so hard up that they can’t afford to buy food.
Back in 2008, the financial crisis caused a lot of unemployment. Then there were the cuts to the welfare system in 2013 which added to the problem—and many British people fell into debt. It’s estimated that 500,000 people in the UK have turned to food banks, just to get by.
Steph Hagen, who works in a Nottingham food bank, says：“People do not go to a food bank because it's an open door. It’s a case where they go to it because they need to. With our food bank—we are an independent one, and we have limited stocks—everyone who comes through our door has no income.”
There are checks to make sure nobody is abusing the system. If a doctor or a social worker thinks someone needs to use a food bank—even for a short time—they can give them vouchers(凭证). Then the people in need take them along to the food bank and they get handouts for three days.
Churches and individual donors provide most of the food in the banks. But some businesses might help out too.
And what sort of food is offered in food banks? Hagen says：“Basically, we’ve got porridge. We do occasionally get fresh produce but it’s very rare, especially in the winter months. It’s like tinned fruit, tinned ready meals. We have to give out‘no-cooking’food parcels because people can’t afford the gas and electricity”.
Community spirit has a lot to do with food banks. Volunteers say they are a great meeting place for people who are lonely and depressed. And when facing a crisis, some beneficiaries might need to feed not only their belly—but also their soul.
1.According to the text, the food bank is a place ________.
A．which is funded by the government
B．where people can get food randomly
C．which helps poor people live through crisis
D．where there is enough food supplies
2.What does the underlined word“them”in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．Systems． B．Doctors．
C．Social workers． D．Vouchers．
3.Why do food banks mainly offer“no-cooking”food?
A．Poor people have no money for gas and electricity.
B．The volunteers hate to supply cooked food.
C．Food banks can’t afford cooked food.
D．This kind of food is easy to store.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．Community spirit can cure those who are depressed.
B．Food banks benefit poor people mind and body.
C．People can have great fun in food banks.
D．Volunteers tend to feel lonely and depressed in food banks.

Next time you raise an eyebrow at the views of your partner, friend, sibling (兄弟姐妹) or colleague, remember they could be helping to make you smarter.
New research shows that intelligence is not fixed but can be boosted throughout adulthood by family members, bright mates and intellectually stretching (拉伸) careers.
The study challenges the commonly held belief that intelligence is static by the age of about 18. Current scientific consensus suggests that intelligence is controlled by genes, with environmental factors such as schooling and nutrition playing a partial role up to this age. After this point, IQ scores stabilize (稳定).
But James Flynn, professor of political studies and psychology at the University of Otago in New Zealand, argues that people can “upgrade” their own intelligence throughout their lives. He believes intellectual stimulation (刺激) from others is crucial as the “brain seems to be rather like a muscle – the more you use it, the stronger it gets”. However, the opposite is also true – so people sharing a home or workplace with those who are intellectually challenged risk seeing their IQ levels fall as a result.
He found the “understanding quality” of a family changes the IQs of all members, especially children. It can “lift” or hold back, depending on the “gap between their brightness and that of their siblings and parents”. A bright ten-year-old with brothers and sisters of average intelligence will suffer a five to ten point IQ disadvantage, compared to a similar child with equally bright siblings. However, children with a low IQ could gain six to eight points by having brighter siblings and special educational treatment to help pull them up.
Professor Flynn also concluded that although genetics and early life experiences determine about 80 percent of intelligence, the remaining 20 percent is linked to lifestyle. This means that people can raise their IQ, or allow it to fall, by ten points or more. Therefore, the best way to boost IQ level is to mix with bright friends, find an intellectually challenging job and marry someone cleverer.
1.We can learn from the passage that ____.
A. as the age grows, you will become smarter
B. a 35-year-old man is surely smarter than himself at the age of 18
C. you will be smarter if you have a partner, a friend or a sibling
D. after 18, you still have the possibility to become smarter
2.The underlined word “static” in the 3rd paragraph probably means ____.
A. unstable B. fixed
C. varied D. repeated
3.James Flynn holds the belief that ____.
A. intellectual stimulation from others makes the brain work better
B. people should avoid working with those intellectually challenged
C. one’s IQ could be held back if he has bright brothers or sisters
D. the IQ of children is least influenced by the understanding level of a family
4. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Genetics Determines Intelligence.
B. Watch Out for Intelligence Falling.
C. Bright Siblings Make You Smarter.
D. Brain Is Like Muscle.
