By now, most people know they should be eating more vegetables．But are there ways to get more from the vegetables you already eat? A research shows that when it comes to vegetables, it's not only how much we eat, but also how we prepare them, that decides the vitamins（维生素） and other nutrients（营养物） that enter our body．Many studies show that people who eat lots of vegetables have less heart disease, and eye problems and even cancer．But raw（生的） vegetables are not always best．Theresearchers found that 198Germans who eat raw food were short of lycopene（番茄红素）, the matter found in tomatoes and other red vegetables．"There is an idea that raw foods are always going to be better, "says Steven K．Clinton, a professor at Ohio State University．"For fruits and vegetables, sometimes a little bit of cooking can be helpful．"A number decide how the vegetables do good to people's health before they reach the table, including where and how they were grown and stored before being bought．No single cooking way is best．Some nutrients are easily lost in cooking if they are cooked in different ways．Vitamins C and B are often lost．In January, another report said that boiling was better for carrots than frying（油炸） or serving them raw．Frying was the worst way to cook．What cooked with the vegetables can also be important?

"BANG" the door closed behind me. With tears in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feeling. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now…I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always put his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without any aim in my mind. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets. When I finally reached the apartment where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?"In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except father's.Dad was always like this. He has got used to arguing with me. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never said sorry to me. But after an argument he always came into my room secretly and made sure whether I was asleep.The light was still on. "Am I wrong?" I whispered, maybe…With the key in hand, I was a s nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love is second to none.（1）In which order do the following take place?a.

Most people around the world are right﹣handed． This also seems to be true in history． In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1, 500 B．C． to the 1950s． Most of the people shown in these works are right﹣handed, so the scientists guessed that right﹣handedness has always been common throughhistory． Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world's population is left﹣handed．Why are there more right﹣handed people than left﹣handed ones? Scientists now know that a person's two hands each have their own jobs． For most people, the hand is used to find things or hold things． The right hand is used to work with things． This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain． The right side of the brain, which makes a person's hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand． The left﹣side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems． Thesefindings show that more artists should be left﹣handed, and studies have found that left﹣handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs．No one really knows what makes a person become right﹣handed instead of left﹣handed． Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left﹣handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born． However, this doesn't happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left﹣handed． One idea is that people usually get right﹣handed from their parents． If a person does not receive the gene（基因） for right﹣handedness, he / she may become either right ﹣handed or left﹣handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with． Though right﹣handedness is more common than left﹣handedness, people no longer think left﹣handed people are strange or unusual． A long time ago, left﹣handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don't have to．（1）After studying works of art made at different times in history， the scientistsfound________．A the art began from 1，500B the works of art ended in the 1950sC most people shown in the works of art are left﹣handedD most people shown in the works of art are right﹣handed．（2）How many people in the world are left﹣handed now？________A More than a half．B Less than one sixth．C About 40%．D The passage doesn't tell us．．（3）What is the hand for most people used to do？________A It's the centre for thinking and doing problems．B It's used to work with things．C It's used to make a person's eyes work together．D It's used to find or hold things．．（4）According to the passage， which of the following is NOT true？________A Left﹣handedness is cleverer than right﹣handedness．B No one really knows what makes a person become right﹣handed．C Today children are not made to use their right hands only．D Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left﹣handed．．（5）The best title for this passage is________．A Scientists' New InventionsB Left﹣handed PeopleC Different Brains， Different HandsD Which Hand．四、填空16. 阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
