  The richest man in the world is an American, Bill Gates.He started Microsoft, the company that makes computer programs and operating systems.Two years ago, Mr.Gates and his wife Melinda decided to use some of their money to improve the lives of people in developing countries.They started the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in Seattle, Washington.The foundation has twenty-four thousand million dollars.It is the biggest not-for-profit organization in the world.Bill and Melinda Gates started the foundation because they believed progress in medical science and informaton technology was not reaching people in developing countries.Their foundation finances programs aimed at improving health and education in poor countries.One of the foundation’s major goals is the development of new medicine to prevent and treat tuberculosis(肺结核), maiaria(疟疾)and AIDS.The World Health Organization reports that these three diseases kill more than five million people a year.

  Another leading foundation project is an effort to reduce death rates for babies in poor countries.The foundation also supports efforts to provide necessary medicine to prevent diseases among children in seventy-four developing countries.It also supports training programs for healthy workers.Bill and Melinda Gates are also concerned about connecting people to The Internet computer system.The foundation believes men and women of all ages and races should be able to use the Internet as a tool for life-long learning.For example, the foundation gave nine million dollars to more than three hundred fifty public libraries in Chile(智利)for computers and technology training.The Gates Foundation usually provides money to developing countries in the form of a gift or a grant.However, there are conditions for receiving grants.Governments or other not-for-profit organizations working in a country must promise to provide an equal amount of money.The receiver must also meet performance goals or rise losing the money.

  I hear many parents say that their teenagers are too independent.I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents.You should be learning to stand on your own feet.But take a good look at the present rebellion, it seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents.Instead of striking out bravely on their own, most of them are trying to seize at one another’s hands for safety.

  They say they want to dress as they please.But they all wear the same clothes.They set off in new directions in music.But the reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it.They have come out of their cocoon-into a larger cocoon.

  It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way.Industry has firmly opened up a teenager market.These days every teenager can learn from newspapers and TV what a teenager should have and be.And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children.All this adds up to great difficulty for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.

  But the difficulty is worth getting over.The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party.You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records.You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with you classmates.Well, go to it.Find yourself.Be yourself.Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are.That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts

  Long bus rides are like television shows.They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials(商业广告)thrown in every three or four minutes.The commercials are unavoidable(不可免除的).They happen whether you want them or not.Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window.“Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”“Drink Good Wet Root Beer.”“Fill up with Pacific Gas.”Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of“You Need It!Buy It Now!”

  The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you've traveled that way before.Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road.The bus driver has a style of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so.If the driver is particularly reckless(鲁莽的)or daring, the ride can be as thrilling(惊心动魄的)as a suspense story.Will the driver pass the truck in time?Will the driver move into the right-or the left-hand lane?After a while, of course, the excitement dies down.Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride.Food always makes bus rides more interesting.But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat.Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.

  The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning.You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and excitement in that.The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed.By now you've sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the armrest even with your hands crossed behind your head.The end comes just at no more ways to sit.

  You are what you eat and fats are a main food for Asia's fast-food generation.Dr Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition, says children are consuming more meat and soft drinks.This is a thorough departure from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice and little meat.“They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink.So also they may eat the same volume of food, their calorie intake(卡路里摄入量)has increased.Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat,”says Chwang.

  Although the whole Asians tend towards thinness, culture-namely Asians' hospitality(好客)-is the reason for the fatness of today's generation, according to Chwang.“Asian people love food,”She says.“Eating and drinking are important social and family functions.”In the past, however, big meals were only hosted on special occasions as people were more careful with money.In today's climate of wealth and remarkable consumption, 10-course meals are no longer reserved for significant occasions.

  More than anyone else, children are on the receiving end of their parents' improved circumstances.“In the past, people had four or more children-now, they have one or two, so they tend to spoil them,”says Chwang.“The easiest way is to give them quality food.”Parents think feeding them well is showing their love.They feel bad when their children look thin.

  When describing the physical condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says,“There is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play.Children get fat because they don't move, and eventually, they don't want to move because they are fat.”

  Thanks to technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to old outdoor sports.“What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games?They eat chocolate and drink Coke,”says Chwang.

(1)

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

[  ]

A.

Asian people tend to save more money.

B.

Asian children depart from their diet tradition.

C.

Asian children eat big meals on more occasions.

D.

Culture contributes to the fatness of Asian children.

(2)

According to this passage, the“quality food”fed by some parents is actually ________.

[  ]

A.

healthful food

B.

qualified food

C.

agreeable food

D.

high-calorie food

(3)

Some parents feel bad when their children look thin, because ________.

[  ]

A.

their children don't love eating and drinking

B.

their children don't have a good physical condition

C.

they feel that they don't take good care of their children

D.

they feel that they are not healthy enough to afford“qualified food”

(4)

The purpose of this article is to ________.

[  ]

A.

compare the traditional diet with today's diet of Asian children

B.

find reasons for increased food consumption of Asian people

C.

  As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food.Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.

  Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像)the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes.They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children.But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents' efforts to control the loud noise they make.That can have an important effect on the children.“In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children's IQ scores,”Lewis says.“And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”

  The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹).Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention.“Middle children are invisible,”says Lewis.“When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it's the middle child.”There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention:“When the TV is on,”Lewis says,“dinner is a non-event.”

(1)

[  ]

A.

show the relationship between parents and children

teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table

give information about family problems

they are busy serving food to their children

they are busy keeping order at the dinner table

C.

they have to pay more attention to younger children

D.

they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family

(3)

By saying“Middle children are invisible”in Paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ________.

[  ]

A.

have to help their parents to serve dinner

B.

get the least condition from the family

C.

are often kept away from the dinner table

D.

find it hard to keep up with other children

The Success of McDonald's

  In 1895, a man named Raymond Kroc entered a partnership(合营公司)with two brothers named McDonald.They opened a popular restaurant in California which sold food that was easy to prepare and serve quickly.Hamburgers, French fries, and cold drinks were the main food there.Kroc opened similar eating places under the same name“Mc Donald”, and they were an instant(立即的)success.He later took over the company, and today it is one of the most famous and successful“fastfood”in America and the world.

  Why was his idea so successful?Probably the most important reason was that his timing was right.In the 1950s, most married women stayed home to keep house and take care of their children.In the 1960s, many women returned to the workplace, this meant that they had less time and energy(精力)to do housework and preparations for meals so they relied more on“TV dinners”and fast-food restaurants.Single parents also have little time to spend in the kitchen.People living alone also depend on this type of food, since cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth

  Fast-food is not part of the diet(饮食)of all Americans.Another trend(倾向)of the 1960s, sometimes called the back-to-nature movement influenced(影响)many people to avoid(避开)food that was packaged or processed(袋装的或加工好的).This preference(偏爱)for natural foods continues to this day.

  From the success of Raymond Kroc's fast-food business, we can say that social economic(社会经济)trends influence where and what we eat.

(1)

“Cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth”means ________.

[  ]

A.

cooking for several people is worth more money

B.

it is not necessary to take too much time to cook for one person

C.

there are more problems when one person cooks

D.

there are a lot of housework and preparations to do when one person cooks

(2)

An idea implied in the passage is that ________.

[  ]

A.

many married women began to work in the 1960s

B.

natural food is still popular today

C.

fast-food is not part of the diet of all Americans

D.

divorce(离婚)causes people to change their eating habits

(3)

The main idea of the passage is that ________.

[  ]

A.

Raymond Kroc is the most successful fast-food business owner in the world

B.

social and economic changes affect(影响)eating habits

C.

fast-food is easy to prepare and serve quickly

D.

Overseas, I Won My Dignity

  One day in the fall of 2006 I found a big roll of money on the roadway near the classrooms where I was teaching in Saudi Arabia.It is quite a lot of money-about US $1000.

  The next day, after finishing my teaching duties, I walked over to the military headquarters and handed over the money to one of the officers in charge.I didn’t give the matter much thought, except for wondering whether or not they would be able to find the owner of the money.I’ve ?personally never met a Saudi thief or even heard of one.It’s against their religion.

  Then, within a week I was informed that the owner had been found and the money returned.A local Saudi worker, who had been trimming(修整)the trees outside the classrooms and had dropped his pay.He had reported the loss to the office.The commander of the base asked to speak with me.

  Foreign workers in Saudi Arabia have a name as mercenaries(唯利是图):working for money and only money, whatever the level of skill or pay.

  So, the base commander was surprised when a foreign worker turned in a roll of hard cash.He said something like,“Our Saudi tree trimmer was very happy to have his money ?returned to him.”I said something equally polite, like,“Where I come from, money belongs with the man who earns it.”

  Then, the commander said the“magic words”.“Is there anything I can do for you, personally?”

  “Not really, sir.”I responded.“I wanted the money returned to the owner, and that happened.I won’t take any more of your valuable time.”I turned and started for the door and, then, the commander’s aide called after me and asked me to wait outside for a few minutes.

  In a few minutes, I was called back into the office and the commander said,“I understand you are a married man.Would you be interested in having a visit from your wife?”Believe me, as a matter of principle, policy and practice, the Islamic Kingdom of Saudi Arabia does not issue visiting visa to non Muslim women:never, anytime, anyhow-except in very, very special cases.

  That’s how it happened!

(1)

What was the writer’s attitude toward his action?

[  ]

A.

Excited.

B.

Discouraged.

C.

Natural.

D.

Pleased.

The commander wanted to do something for the writer in return.
