阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
At home, ordering food from a menu is a normal, everyday routine. I don’t even give it a second thought. In China, it’s a whole other story! Here, ordering is a fun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served!
Many restaurants in central Beijing advertise “English language menus”, but the translations can just add to the confusion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with off-the-wall names. As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like “students addicted to chicken gristle (软骨)” and “red burned lion head”. It was always fun to see what landed on our table. Eventually we learned that “lion head” was actually pork, and “students” are “addicted” to diced (切碎的) chicken with green pepper.
Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools (凳子) eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and called out for a “caidan!” In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant. The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: “crossing over the bridge noodles”.
I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it would taste like. I took a gamble and ordered one bowl of “crossing over the bridge noodles”. A few minutes later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth (肉汤) and I quickly dug in. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and again and each time I point at the one English sentence – “crossing over the bridge noodles”. I always enter a restaurant in China feeling excited and a little nervous. Who knows what the next ordering adventure will show?
1.How does the writer find the English-language menus in many of Beijing’s restaurants?
A. Confusing but amusing. B. Easy to understand.
C. Boring and annoying. D. Accurate and helpful.
2.The underlined word “gamble” in the last paragraph probably means ______.
A. taste B. look C. step D. risk
3.The passage deals with ______.
A. the author’s favorite Chinese dishes
B. the fun the author had ordering food in China’s restaurant
C. a comparison between Western food and Chinese food
D. the correct way to translate the names of Chinese dishes into English
4.The passage is developed mainly in the form of _____________.
A. examples and statements
B. comparison and conclusion
C. causes and effects
D. time and description

Personality is, to large extent, inherent --A-type parents usually bring about A-type offspring. But the environment must also have a profound effect, since if competition is important to the parents, it is likely to become a major factor lives of their children.
One place where children soak up A characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools adopt the "win at all costs" moral standard and measure their success by sporting achievements. The current passion for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A types seem in some way better than their B-type fellows. Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences: remember that Pheidippides, the first marathon runner, dropped dead seconds after saying，"Rejoice, we conquer!".
By far the worst form of competition in school is the disproportionate emphasis on examinations. It is a rare school that allows pupils to concentrate on those things they do well. The merits of competition by examination are somewhat questionable, but competition in the certain knowledge of failure is positively harmful.
Obviously, it is neither practical nor desirable that all A youngsters change into Bs. The world needs types, and schools have an important duty to try to fit a child's personality to his possible future employment. It is top management.
1. According to the author, what factors contribute to the building of personality?
A. Inheritance.
B. environment .
C. Competition.
D. inheritance, competition and environment.
2. The phrase "soak up" is closest in meaning to _____.
A. pull up B. take up C. take in D. pull in
3. What attitude does the author hold toward examinations in schools?
A. positive B. negative C. doubtful D. neutral
4.What suggestion does the author make concerning the management of schools?
A. All students be made into competitive A types.
B. A child's personality be considered in regard to his possible future job.
C. All students be changed into B characteristics.
D. Schools abolish all forms of examinations.

Nature is full of color, from rainbows and roses to butterfly wings and peacock tails. Even the fruits and vegetables you eat have different colors: blue blueberries, red strawberries, green broccoli, and orange carrots.
Plant and animals often use color to attract attention. The substances responsible for these colors belong to a class of chemical called antioxidants(抗氧化物). Plants make antioxidant to protect themselves from the sun's ultraviolet(紫外线)light.
Ultraviolet light causes chemicals called free radicals(自由基)to form within plant cells. They can destroy parts of plant. Free radicals also have damaging effects on human beings. Some of these effects like wrinkled skin can be seen. The damage is caused by the free radicals attacking cells in our bodies. Certain cancers and heart disease are linked to free radicals.
Our bodies have natural defences for fighting off free radicals. While we are young, our defences are pretty strong. However, they get weaker as we get older. The body’s built-in defences can only go so far without extra help.
The key to fighting free radicals with fruits and vegetables is to mix and match colors. It’s like sunscreen(防晒霜)for the inside of your body. Go for a range of very bright colors. Colorful foods contain hundreds of healthy chemicals not found anywhere else.
Research into how chemicals in blueberries affect the brain's function in rats suggests that these chemicals may help our own brains work more efficiently.
Don't just blame the sun. Ultraviolet light isn't the only source of free radicals. If you breathe polluted air such as smog, automobile exhaust(废气), or wasted gas from a factory, you take in chemicals that also cause such damage. And, the body itself produces free radicals as it processes food.
1.Which of the following NOT true?
A．Antioxidants are responsible for plant colors.
B．Plants use color to attract attention.
C．Antioxidants help free radicals to attack plants.
D．Antioxidants can protect plants from ultraviolet light.
2.In which order do the following facts occur?
a .Wrinkled skin can be seen
b .Ultraviolet light causes free radicals to form
c .Free radicals damage cells in our bodies
d .The sun gives out ultraviolet light
A．a,b,c,d B．d,b,a,c
C．c,a,d,b D．d,b,c,a
3. We need extra help for fighting off free radicals from fruits and vegetables because ____.
A．our defences get weaker as we get older
B．our bodies’ defences are not natural
C．we are too young to defend ourselves
D．our bodies’ built-in defences can only go away
4.Which of the following can NOT cause free radicals to form?
A．Ultraviolet light from the sun
B．Colorful food
C．Polluted air
D．The body itself

5 Signs Proving That You’re A Pretty Quick Learner
According to a study it is discovered that fast learners (specifically language learners) have more white matter and less symmetrical(对称的) brains. 1. . Sometimes what seems so sophisticated needs the simplest solution. Here is how to know if you are a pretty quick learner.
1. You are not afraid to say “I don’t know”
Pretty quick learners accept that they do not know it all. They keep their minds open and are willing to ask questions and quiz for answers to know more. While some are reluctant and hesitant to show their ignorance on a subject, quick learners are not.
2. You are able to visualize it
2. They take advantage of how to deal with it with all their senses. They visualize it by taking advantage of their mental powers to drive solutions and learning.
3. 3.
Quick learners know that difficult problems do not need a difficult approach. Many great minds from Thomas Edison to Henry Ford and even Steve Jobs looked for ways to address challenges with simple solutions. They simplify and immerse themselves in their goals to find the easiest and simplest way out of a hole.
4. You are selective
4. Rather you take your time to broadly consider those that are worthy of your attention and assessment. Through this you are able to go after the most promising solutions
available.
5. You take action
After all is said and done, at the end of the day it is up to you to take action. If you are learning a new language you really cannot make so much progress if you do not speak the new language, whether you get it right or not. 5.
A. You simplify.
B. Quick learners learn by doing and taking decisive action.
C. Learning fast or being a quick learner depends on how we use our brains.
D. Quick learning has productivity attached to it.
