The USDA has prepared a food guide to help people learn about which kind of food is the healthiest to eat. The food guide describes six main food groups:

29、 meat (like fish and chicken), dairy (like milk and cheese),grains (like bread and rice), fruit and vegetables. The last group is fats and sweets. The USDA also suggests how much of each food group is healthy to eat daily. Though this guide was prepared by the US government, it is very useful for pe

30、ople all over the world.As a_of years of study, we know that too much animal fat is bad for our health. For example, Americans eat a lot of meat and only a small amount of grains, fruit and vegetables. Because of the way they eat, they have a high rate of cancer and heart disease. In Japan, people e

31、at large amounts of grains and very little meat. The Japanese also have a very low rate of cancer and heart disease. The Japanese live longer than anyone else in the world. However, when Japanese people move to the US, the rate of heart disease and cancer goes up as their eating habit changes. And a

32、s hamburgers, ice creams and other high-fat foods become popular in Japan, the rate of heart disease and cancer is going up there as well. People are also eating more meat and dairy food in other countries, in which the disease rate is going up along with the change of the way people eat. Doctors ev

33、erywhere suggest people eat more grains, fruit and vegetables and less meat and dairy food.Eating healthily is important for children as well as their parents. When parents have poor eating habits, their children usually do, too. After all, children eat in the same way as their parents. When parents

34、 eat healthy food, the children will learn to enjoy it, too. Then they will develop good eating habits. Doctors suggest parents give their children healthier food such as fruit, vegetables and juice.Everyone wants to live a long, healthy life. We know that the food we eat affects us in different way

35、s. For example, doctors believe that fruit and vegetables can really protect people from many different diseases. On the other hand, animal fat can cause diseases. We can change our eating habits now and enjoy many years of healthy living.1What is the USDA in the passage?AA group of doctors in the U

38、wledge of six food groupsD16、 A passenger told an air hostess(空姐）that he needed a cup of water when the plane just took off. She told him that she would bring him the water soon.Twenty minutes later，when the passengers ring for service sounded, the air hostess realized it at once. She was kept so bu

39、sy that she forgot to bring him the water. Therefore, the passenger was held up to take his medicine. She hurried over to him with a cup of water, but he refused it.In the following hours on the flight, each time the air hostess passed the passenger, she would ask him with a smile whether he needed

40、help or not. But the passenger never paid attention to her words.When he was going to get off the plane, the passenger asked the air hostess to hand him the passengers, booklet. She was very sad. She knew that he would write down sharp(苛刻的）words. But with a smile she handed it to him.Off the plane,

41、she opened the booklet, and let out a smile, for the passenger put it: On the flight, you asked me if I needed help for twelve times in all.

But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way. Its never a wise idea to believe that the family member

45、 who was good at the job of map-reading knows where the family is. You can tell by the troubled look on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map. Never mind. The sun is shining and its still morning. If you dont know the exact time, you can still find out where south is, but you

46、ll need to be patient. Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow(a dark shape on a surface that is made when something stands between a light and the surface). Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can. You can check this by making a simple p

47、lumb line(鉛錘線). You havent got one? OK, use a thread(線) from your clothes with a button(紐扣) tied at the end to act as a weight. Mark the end of the shadow cast(投射) by the stick. Wait about half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again. Keep doing this until you have made several marks. The mark

48、nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south. Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick. That point is south of where you are. Now you can turn the map, li

49、ke you did before, and find which way you should be travelling.1To find the direction, we have to be patient probably because _.Ait is not easy to find a proper stickBit is not easy to position the stickCit takes hours to make the marksDit takes hours to mark the map2The passage would probably be mo

50、st helpful to _.Athose who draw mapsBthose who get lostCthose who make compassesDthose who do experiments3Which of the following pictures best shows the way of finding the direction of south?A B C D4The writer presents this passage by _.Atelling an interesting storyBdescribing an activity in a livel

51、y wayCtesting an idea by reasoningDintroducing a practical methodF18、Making friends might seem to come easy for some persons, but its maybe very hard for most persons. No matter how many friends you might already have, it is always a good idea to make new friends.Being shy keeps a lot of people from

52、 making friends. Also, making friends might need a person to step outside of their comfortable places, which are hard for a lot of people, whether they are shy or not. However, overcoming the shyness to step out of your box is an important step in making friends.There are lots of ways to meet new fr

53、iends. First of all, remember that a good friendship is based on interests, so if you are ready to make friends, start to join clubs or go places where you have interest. For instance, if you like to play sports, join a sports team or after school sports club. If you have interests in music or writi

54、ng, join clubs or organizations that you are interested in. When you see someone in a place like that, and you think that they look nice, it is always a good idea to go up to them and introduce yourself and ask interesting questions so that you can start a conversation. Dont put too much pressure on

55、 yourself, and remember that friendships dont always happen quickly.Some friendships happen right away, and youll be able to tell if someone will be a great friend right after you meet them. Some friendships take a long time to develop. Anyway, the friends that you meet are going to be worth it. If

56、a friendship develops quickly, it doesnt mean that it is extra valuable, and if a friendship takes a long time to develop, it doesnt mean that it isnt worth it because its too hard.Making friends might be a bit difficult for you, and the friends you will make may not look anything like you. However, even though it might be scary to start conversations, you are worth doing it. All friendships start with a single hello.1From the passage, its _ to make friends for most people.Aeasy BconvenientCimpossible Ddifficult2If you want to make
