My father was a highly educate, intelligent gentleman. He could debate or discuss for hours on almost any topic and hold your 31 in the process. I thought there was nothing be wasn’t 32 to do.
A few days before my younger brother’s 7th birthday, Dad planned to assemble(装配) a new 33 as a special birthday surprise. After nearly an hour of 34 the instructions, Dan was still unable to 35 the new bike together. Later he 36 the paper of instructions, 37 up his tool box, and decided to take the bike back to the local toy store and pay extra 38 to have it correctly assembled there. 39 an idea came to him, as he called out to Lovett, the quiet little man who cut our grassland.
“Lovett, have you ever assembled a boy’s bicycle?”
As Lovett walked towards the bike, Dad handed him the 40 . Lovett handed it back to him, saying, “No ,thanks. I can’t read. When you can’t read, you have to 41 .” Less than 15 minutes later, the new bicycle was 42 assembled, with no 43 parts remaining. Dad shook Lovett’s hand, patted him on the back, thanked him, and hid the bike.

信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
以下是五位专家的建议。请匹配这些建议及对应的生活感想或经验介绍（A、B、C、D、E和F）。选项中有一项是多余选项。
You should watch where your weight accumulates．You can use the waist to hip ratio to find if there is too much fat around the middle．Belly fat is especially dangerous because it release free fatty acids directly to the liver, virtually flooding it with fat.
If a particular food is important to you, eat it, but work it off．You should try to learn the art of compromise.
At the same time．the three-for-one is relatively simple to use．Fat grams and calories are listed on almost all boxed, canned or packaged foods —— you have only to read the label and follow the rule．A five-year-old patient of mine can do this.
Drinking water is basic, and drinking enough of it is necessary．Patients are sometimes surprised that basic things work when they do them consistently.
Consume antioxidant foods．They protect the cholesterol(胆固醇), from oxidative damage, which helps prevent damage to blood…vessel walls.
A．More than nine years ago I was 70 pounds overweight and wore a very big dress．I had tried different diets and lost weight only to gain it back．Finally a simple “three-for-one’’ fat rule worked for me：consuming no more than three grams of fat for every 100 calories per serving．Following the rule and eating only foods that contain less than 30 percent fat, I spent eight months getting down to a size seven, and I’ve kept the weight off for nine years.
B．And for foods that aren’t packaged, you rely on what we already know about them．Red meat, as well as dishes made or served with butter, gravy, cream sauce or cheese, are almost never less than 30 percent fat——so you just don’t eat them．On the other hand, some non-packed foods——all fruits and vegetables except avocadoes and olives——always pass the test．So do most fish, but not when fried.
C．I like vegetables, which are rich in vitamins．Most foods containing vitamins C and E（such as sweet potatoes, tomatoes, spinach and broccoli）are low in calories and are known as antioxidants（抗氧化物质）．They can help reduce the possibility to develop hardening the arteries（动脉）.
D．I gain weight around the belly—what we call abdominal obesity, the worst kind．The tendency seems to be hereditary（遗传的）, and it’s common among men．This problem increases the risk of a stroke or heart attack．A guide I use in estimating belly fat is the waist-to-hip ratio or WHR．To find yours, divide the circumference（周围）of you waist by the circumference of you hips．Women with ratios above 0.8 and men with ratios above 1.0 are at increased health risk.
E．My ways of keeping healthy are very simple, and they are among our everyday activities：eating healthy food and doing exercise．In addition, I manage to do those basic things, such as drinking water, sleeping well and eating less fat．Sometimes I do some of the other things I used to do in my life like walking for half an hour a day.
F．Although I've put on ten pounds．I'm healthy and in good shape．I eat food that’s good for me…but I work off Susan’s homemade brownies（巧克力蛋糕）, for example．To offset these extra calories, I walk for an hour or more, three times a week…often with Susan．We’re both busy and this is one way we have some quiet time together．Equally important, it permits me to practice dieting fine art of compromise.

阅读表达(共五小题，每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
[1]Cooking carrots whole before chopping them up increases their anti-cancer properties by 25 percent, researchers say.
[2]Leaving the vegetable intact (完整的) prevents valuable nutrients from being easily washed away into water. They can then be chopped up once cooked without loss of nutrients.
[3]Carrots have long been prized for their health benefits, especially their vitamin and fiber content. They contain huge amounts of carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）which are converted into vitamin A in the body. They are also an excellent source of the anti-cancer compound falcarion (镰叶芹醇). In a previous study, Dr Kirsten Brandt found rats fed on a diet containing carrots or isolated falcarino were less likely to develop tumors than those which were not.
[4]They also found that carrots boiled before they were cut contained 25 percent more falcarino than those that were chopped up first. Carrots which are cut have a higher surface area in contact with water, resulting in greater loss of nutrients, compared with boiling them whole. The heat softens the cell walls in the vegetable, allowing vitamins and falcarino to leach (过滤)out.
[5]Dr Brandt said, "The great thing about this is that it's a simple way for people to increase their uptake of a compound, which is good for you. All you need is a bigger saucepan. Naturally occurring sugars, responsible for giving the carrots its sweet flavor, were also found in higher concentration in carrots that had been cooked whole."
[6]The team also carried out a taste on almost 100 volunteers comparing carrots boiled before being cut and some that are cut up first. More than 80 percent of volunteers said that carrots cooked whole tasted much better.
[7]Boiling carrots whole appears to help them keep more of the nutrients. This is really a piece of good news because the method is of great value. Some other vegetables, such as parsnips (欧洲萝卜) which are from the same family and have a roughly similar size and texture can also be more nutritious by ____.
1. What’ s the main idea of the passage? (No more than 10 words)
2. Complete the following statement with proper words. (No more than 2 words)
can be kept by maintaining the vegetable whole when we are washing it.
3. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 7 with proper words. (No more than 3 words)
4. Why do people regard carrots as healthful vegetables? (No more than 8 words)
5. What does the word "those line 2, paragraph 4) probably refer to? (No more than 2 words)
