When a person is curious about something, it means he is interested in it and wishes to know something about it. There is 16 wrong with curiosity in itself. Whether it is good or bad 17 on what people are curious about.
Curiosity 18 can be foolish or wrong. Some people with nothing to do are 19 of curiosity about what their neighbors are doing. They have a strong wish to know what they are 20 home or taking outside, or why they have come home so 21 or late.

It was Monday. Mrs. Smith's dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.
Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it:“Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently:“Take this to the butcher(* person whose job is selling meat)and he's going to give you your lunch today.”
Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher's. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady's handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.

Here is a question I have often asked at dinner parties:
You're on an island with only one other person, your best friend. He's dying of cancer. In his final days, he tells you, "I have 100,000 dollars in a bank back home. When I die, make sure my son goes to medical school." Then he dies. But his son is a no-good playboy who has no interest in going to medical school and will waste that money away in a very short time. But your son is entering college, and he is willing to become a doctor. Which one do you give the money to for medical school?
I've asked this question of everyone from the president of a famous university to an ordinary young soldier, and it has never failed to get a discussion going. Everyone has an opinion, most of them different, but all of them correct. Sometimes this one topic lasts the whole evening.

We have proof that you become what you eat. When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.
Food has an impact on our physical and mental health. Have you ever heard any of the following advice?
Lettuce (莴苣) or milk can make you sleepy.
To stop feeling sleepy you should eat peanuts or dried fish.
Everyone has their own advice to give, which they have read about or have been told by older relatives. Some of these pieces of advice seem to contradict each other.
Eating chocolate makes you fat and gives you spots.
Chocolate contains the essential minerals: iron and magnesium (镁).
What we need to figure out is what type of chocolate to eat to get the benefits and how much of it to eat. We can do this by reading the list of ingredients (原料) on the chocolate bar package. Exactly how much real chocolate is in there? And how much of that do we need to eat to get the benefits of the minerals it contains?
Future restaurants might be named after the physical or mental state they hope to create. Their menus will list the benefits of each dish and drink. Some restaurants have already started this concept, and list the nutritional (营养的) content of their dishes on the menus.
Let’s take the restaurant “Winners” as an example. Their menu would list dishes specifically designed to help you win sports competitions. Or you could choose the Go-faster salad, which is a large bowl of mixed raw vegetables in a light salad dressing, giving you energy without making you gain weight. And what kind of dishes do you think would be on the menu at the “Clever Café”?
So what’s going to happen to hamburgers and biscuits? Will the concept of eating food, because it’s tasty, go out of fashion? Of course not! Junk food is also changing. If ice-cream is not good for children, can’t we give them fat-free, sugar-free tofu ice-cream? Unhealthy food is going out of fashion, so brands are changing. We are told not to drink cola because of the sugar and caffeine content so cola companies are making sugar-free and caffeine-free drinks. We are told dried fruit is a healthier snack than biscuits so some biscuit companies are making biscuits with added vitamins.
1.By saying “you become what you eat”, the writer means that ________.
A.you will become your own food
B.you will know what food is good by its appearance
C.food has an effect on your health
D.you will know the effects of different types of food
2.What does the underlined word “contradict” mean in the text?
A.Oppose to B.Help with
C.Have influence on D.Benefit from
3.How can we eat chocolate properly, according to the passage?
A.To eat chocolate containing the essential minerals.
B.To read the list of ingredients on the package.
C.To get advice from others before eating real chocolate.
D.To learn how much chocolate we can consume before eating.
4.Which is true about the future restaurants?
A.The food in “Winners” can ensure you to win sports competitions.
B.They might list the nutritional content of their dishes on the menus.
C.Hamburgers will disappear in these restaurants.
D.The Go-faster salad helps you go faster.
5.The concept of eating tasty food will not go out of fashion because ________.
A.the junk food companies are changing their brand names
B.biscuit companies are making dried fruit
C.junk food will become healthier than before
