Eggs are great for breakfast and can【1】(cook) in different ways. One topic of debate, however, is why brown chicken eggs usually cost more than white ones. According to Sharman Hickman, the director of community outreach and education for Hickman's Family Farms, it's first important to know the reason【2】chickens have various egg colors.
The chicken breed(品种) and their genetics decide whether hens possess pigment genes, the natural chemical during the egg laying process that coats the egg and results【3】a colored shell. Hens who produce colored eggshells tend to be【4】(large) and require more feed and energy【5】(create) that painted layer. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs【6】(be) more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look and are priced【7】(different) , it's important to know the color of the eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg's nutrient content, flavor profile,【8】shell thickness, according to Malina Linkas Malkani, media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. “【9】(choose) between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal【10】(prefer) ,” she says.

【题目】 As anyone who freelances (做自由职业) knows,there are lots of advantages of working at home alone. But there are drawbacks too,like the potential loneliness. No wonder coworking spaces are becoming so popular:they permit selfemployed individuals to feel like they are part of all office environment,while making them get some work done too. But renting a coworking space does cost money.
Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people’s underused homes into temporary coworking spaces,available to freelancers for free. Hoffice was started by freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholm when they invited a few people into their home office to work together. It was a great success,and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe,North and South America,Australia,India and Japan. Anyone can sign up and offer their home space as a free coworking space,or go to find a Hoffice near them.
On a Hoffice day,everyone arrives and starts work at a certain hour. After 45 minutes,everyone gets up to take a break,stretch,do qigong or yoga for 10 to 15 minutes. Afterwards,people can gather around again,and restate their intentions and goals for the rest of the work day,as a way to motivate each other. Meals can be eaten together at a certain hour,potluckstyle (家常饭) or by bringing your own lunch.
This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment. As some freelancers describe,“By working at Hoffice,we give ourselves and each other the gift to spend our days in a social working environment,where we are extremely productive without ignoring our other human needs. We also make sure to give us and each other what we need to feel calm,happy,inspired and creative during the working day.”
So Hoffice is not just about sharing space;it’s also about a free exchange of ideas. And perhaps the best thing is that Hoffices are free to use.
【1】What does the underlined word “drawbacks” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.mistakesB.disadvantages
C.difficultiesD.burdens
【2】What do we know about Hoffice according to the text?
A.It is becoming increasingly popular.
B.It has been around for quite a few years.
C.It has created many new job opportunities.
D.It is suitable for people from all walks of life.
【3】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.How people respond to Hoffice.
B.How a Hoffice day works.
C.What people share at Hoffice.
D.What Hoffice means to people.
【4】Some freelancers’ descriptions of Hoffice suggest that they .
A.benefit a lot from the working style
B.work longer than before
C.expect more people to join them
D.can’t be separated from each other

【题目】阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段内容,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数为150左右。
Bales left the pavement of Base Road and stepped onto snow-covered Jewell Trail. She planned a six-hour hike through New Hampshire’s Mount Washington State Park. She had packed for almost every emergency and intended to walk alone.
She’d checked the weather forecast posted by the Mount Washington Observatory before she left. Based on her experience, Bales knew that her hike was realistic. Besides, she had two emergency plans and extra layers of clothing to better adjust her body temperature as conditions changed.
The hike up the lower part of Jewell Trail was pleasant. Bales felt excited as she walked up into snowy paths. The sun shone through the trees and cast a shadow over her smiling face. Less than an hour later, loads of dark clouds had replaced the sunshine, and snow covered the surrounding trees.
She still smiled. However, the weather was showing its teeth. Bales added even more layers to shelter herself from the cold winds and thick fog. She made her way across the snow-covered ridge (山脊toward Mount Washington and began to think about calling it a day. Suddenly, she noticed something: a single set of footprints in the snow ahead of her, which had been made by a pair of sneakers-typically not the type for hiking.
Meanwhile, Bales was getting colder, even though she was moving fast and generating some body heat. With strong gusts of wind screaming and attacking her back and left side, she decided to abandon her plan. The only thing, however, kept her on the trail was the sneaker tracks in the snow.
Paragraph 1:
Bales faced a dilemma about whether to follow the tracks or not.

Paragraph 2:
Her searching now turned into rescuing the man.
