La Tomatina-The World's Biggest Food Fight
On the last Wednesday of every August,the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina-the world's largest food fight.A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events.The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes-official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.
The battle lasts little more than half an hour,in which time around 50,000kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves,runs,or fights back.Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again-and for a much-needed wash!

2.We usually believe what our brain tells us,but there is some amazing evidence which shows that the brain tricks us.As a result,we can ignore things that actually are there.Psychologists Daniel Simons and Christopher Chabris have researched this phenomenon,which they call'change blindness'.
The′Invisible Gorilla(看不见的大猩猩)experiment is probably their most famous one,and it is described in many psychology textbooks.In this experiment,the participants were shown a video of two groups of people (one group in white T-shirts and the other group in black T shirts)who passed basketballs around in a hall.Simons and Chabris asked people to count how many times the white team passed the ball.While the two teams were passing their balls around,a person who was dressed up as a gorilla walked through the group and stopped to look at the camera.Simons and Chabris found that about half of the research participants did not notice the gorilla.
Simons and Daniel Levin did another experiment,called the'Door Study'.Participants in this study were walking across a university campus(校园)when they were stopped by someone they didn't know.The stranger asked for directions and the participant started to give the directions.While the participant was talking to the stranger,two men who were carrying a wooden door talked between the participant and the stranger.At this point,the stranger swapped places with one of the men carrying the door.After that,the participant continued to give the directions.Once again,about half of those tested did not notice that,when the door as passing by,the stranger had changed places with a man who as taller,thinner and who sounded different.
It just goes to show how we can't always trust our own rains.Even though we may think we know what is going on,we can be blind to large changes in our environment.
 
28.What were the participants asked to focus on in'the Invisible Gorilla'experiment?D
A.The number of people in the hall.
B.The clothes people were wearing.
C.The number of basketballs in the hall.
D.The basketball the white team was passing.
29.What did Simons and Levin want to study?C
A.Whether people could find the correct directions in a strange place.
B.Whether people were patient to offer help after an interruption.
C.Whether people noticed they were talking to different people.
D.Whether people judged others sound.by their appearance and sound.
30.Why do people sometimes ignore what's before their eyes?A
A.They are concentrating on something else.
B.They don't trust their own brains.
C.They have very bad eyesight.
D.They aren't interested in it.
31.Where does this text probably come from?C
A.An experimental procedure.
B.A biology textbook.
C.A science magazine.
D.A health report.

19.My grandmother Rosalind  Einhorn  was born  exactly fifty-two year's before I was,on August 28,1917,Like many poor Jewish families in New York City,hers lived in a small,crowded  apartment close to their relatives.Her parents,aunts,and uncles addressed her male cousins by their given names,but she and her sister were referred to only as"Girlie".
During the Depression t my grandmother was pulled out of Morris High School to help support the household by sewing fabric flowers onto undergarments that her mother could resell for a tiny profit.No one in the community would have considered taking a boy out of school.A boy's edocation was the family's hope to move up the financial and social ladder Education for girls,however,was less significant both financially,since they were unlikely to contribute to the family's income,and culturally,since hoys were expected to study the Torah while girls were expected to run a"proper home?!"Luckily for my grandmother,a local teacher insisted that her parents put her back into school.She went on not only to finish high school but to graduate from U.C Berkeley,
After college,"Girlie"worked selling pocketbooks  and accessories at  David's Fifth Avenue.When she left her job to marry my grandfather,David's  had to hire four people to replace her.Years later,when my grandfathers paint  business was struggling,she jumped in and look some of the hard steps he was reluctant  to take,helping to save the family from financial ruin.She displayed her business ability again in her forties.After being diagnosed (诊断)with breast cancer,she beat it and then devoted herself to raising money for the clinic that treated her by selling some watches.Girlie ended up with a profit that Apple would envy.I have never met anyone with more energy and determination than,my grandmother.
When my grandmother had children of her own-my mother and her two brothers-she emphasized education for all of them.My mother attended the University of Pennsylvania,When she graduated in 1965with a degree in French literature,she surveyed a workforce that she believed consisted of two career options for women:teaching or nursing.She chose teaching.She began a Ph.D.programme,got married,and then dropped out when she became pregnant with me.It was thought to be a sign of weakness if a husband needed his wife's help to support their family,so my mother became a stay-at-home parent and an active volunteer.The centuries-old division of labour stood.
Even though I grew up in a traditional home,my parents had the same expectations for me.my sister,and my brother.All three of us were encouraged to do well in school.do equal routine tasks,and participate in after-school activities.We were all supposed to be athletic too.My brother and sister joined sports teams,but I was the kid who got picked last in gym,Despite my athletic shortcomings.I was raised to believe that girls could do aoything boys could do and that all career paths were open to me.
When I arrived at college in the fall of 1987.my classmates of both genders seemed equally focused on academics.I don't remember thinking about my future career differently from the male students.I also don't  remember any conversations about someday balancing work and children.My friends and I assumed that we would have both.Men and women competed openly and aggressively with one another in classes,activities,and job intefviews.Just two generations removed from my grandmother,the playing field seemed to be level.
But more than twenty years after my college graduation.the world has not evolved nearly as much as I believed it would.Almost all of my male classmates work in professional settings.Sonic of my female classmates work full-time or part-time outside the home.and just as many are stay-at-home  mothers and volunteers like my mom.This mirrors the national trend.In comparison to their male counterparts (相同能力者),highly trained women are scaling back and dropping out of the workforce in high numbers.

65.Why were the writer's grandma and her sisters called"Girlie"?D
A.They had not yet got their given nams.
B.They were highly valued by their ciders,

B.Her job should be taken over by a younger person,
C.It was a real shame about her losing that good job.
D.It was quite  normal for a woman like her to do so.

3.For most people,plastic bags are a necessity of any shopping trip.They might seem like an innocent way to carry groceries,but dealing with these bags can be harmful for the environment.
It's reported that the world uses about 500 billion plastic bags each year and fewer than 3% are recycled.Plastic bags that end up in oceans and beaches are harmful to fish,birds,and other animals.As a result,cities and states have been trying for years to find a way to get people to cut back on using plastic bags.
This year,New York City was prepared to add a 5-cent tax on the use of paper or plastic bags in stores,but Governor Andrea Cuomo signed a law that blocked(反对) the tax.Cuomo said the tax idea was"deeply faulty"because it would have allowed store owners to keep the money from the tax instead of putting it toward environmental efforts.Cuomo announced plans to create a task force to look into the plastic-bag problem.By the end of the year,the task force may suggest a statewide ban of plastic bags,a tax on them,or something entirely new.
Several cities around the country have either banned plastic bags or charged a fee for their use.In Washington,D.C.,the charge is 5 cents per bag.Since the fee started there,the number of plastic bags on the streets and waterways dropped by 60%.Seattle,Washington,has banned plastic carryout bags and charges a minimum of 5cents for paper.Chicago,Illinois,will soon add a 7-cent tax on paper and plastic bags.
In New York,some politicians who thwarted,a tax say it puts,too much to tress on low-income citizens and working families.They argue that those people need the money to spend on food,not on bags.

28.What do the majority of people think of plastic bags?C
A.They are easy to be recycled.
B.They do little harm to wild animals.
C.Shopping can't be done without them.
D.Handling them benefits the environment.
29.Why did Andrea Cuomo sign a law against the bag tax?A
A.Because he thought it was quite imperfect.
B.Because he thought it was something new.
C.Because he thought it would affect the sales of bags.
D.Because he thought it would increase consumers'burden.
30.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?D
A.The higher bag fees are,the better.
B.Paper bags will eventually replace plastic bags.
C.More states in the USA will ban the use of plastic ones.
D.Charging bag fees helped decrease the use of plastic bags.
31.Which of the following can replace the underlined word"thwarted"in the last paragraph?B
A.desired     
B.opposed    
C.abolished     
D.suggested.

Captain Henry, a 98-year-old American retired fisherman, has become a first-time author, having written and published his autobiography In a Fisherman’s Language after learning to read at the age of 91.

Mr. Henry spent most of his life without even his closest family members knowing he was illiterate (不识字的). Forced to quit school in the third grade to take odd jobs, he kept the secret close to his chest, only telling his late wife. Henry’s granddaughter, Marlisa, told reporters how he used tricks, like waiting for others to order at restaurants first, to avoid the issue.

A family dispute in his nineties, she said, aroused his desire for education. “He signed a document he could not read about where he was going to live,” Marlisa said. Starting with his name, he eventually moved on to the ABC’s and children’s books. He put them down since his wife fell ill. After the tragic loss of his wife, he went back to reading and began to log his life. He wrote about his family’s voyage from Portugal to the US, how he went on to captain a boat, and his many journeys at sea.
