AHow to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else). Registered dietitian(营养专家) Barhara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.“Go for nutrient dense foods,” she suggests, “foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient dense ones are so superior,” she emphasizes.Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life —it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to keep up the strength, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient a mounts or balance.According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.“We need carbohydrates, protein and fat — they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match, the spark, for the fuel,” she explains. “We need them all, but in a very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless.”26. From the paragraph we know that working women .A.think cooking is especially complicatedB.do not share the same views with registered dietitiansC.are busy and not interested in cookingD. are likely to eat healthfully27. Orange juice is different from orange drink in that .A. it contains only a small percentage of real juiceB. it is natural, nutritious and prepared from real orangesC. it is largely orange-colored sugar waterD. it produces nothing but calories28. In Paragraph 4, “a fruitless search” means .A. an effort with no resultsB. a search for a diet without fruitsC. a research on fruitless dietD. a diet serving as medicine29. Many women take it for granted, according to passage that .A. a balanced diet can result in being fatB. staying thin and healthy are both possibleC. lack of variety in diets leads to staying thinD. vitamins are some kind of substitutions (替代品) for food30. By “if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless”, the author means .A. carbohydrates, protein and fat are enough to support a human lifeB. vitamins and minerals are virtually of no valueC. carbohydrates, protein and fat are as important as vitamins and mineralsD. without carbohydrates, protein and fat, vitamins and minerals are of no useBRuben lived in a small village. There was no school there and he had to study in a school in the town. It was nearly five kilometres away from his village. His father couldn't buy a bike for him and he had to go to school on foot. He got up early in the morning. Usually he had to run there in order not to miss the first class. He kept running every day and it was helpful to him. He’s strong and tall now and he ran faster than any other man in his village. He took part in several sports meetings and won some medals. The young man is proud of and always wants to have a race with others.One day his mother was ill and his father told him to buy some medicine for headache in the town. The young man got there soon.

The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world was in danger. They hoped that the governments would act quickly in order to conserve nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air and the water, and everything that grows and lives. We can’t live without these things. If we continue like this, we shall destroy ourselves.What will happen in the fut ure? Perhaps it is more important to ask “What must we do now?” The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young of today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are hoping to save our world. They plant trees, build bridges across rivers in forests and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of eleven kilometres of their river. Young people may hear about conservation through a record called “No, One’s Going to Change our World.” It was made by Scatles, Cliff Richard and other singers.

They are made from a variety of materials, such as wax and glass, so skillfully that they can scarcely be distinguished from natural flowers. In making such models, painstaking and artistry are called for, as well as thorough knowledge of plant structure. The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University is the most famous in North America and is widely known throughout the scientific world. In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass, the work of two artist-naturalists, Leopold Blaschka and his son Rudolph.The intention was to have the collection represent at least one member of each flower family native to the United States. Although it was never completed, it contains more than seven hundred species representing 164 families of flowering plants, a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus diseases, and thousands of flower parts and magnified details. Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure. The models are kept in locked cases as they are too valuable and fragile for classroom use.41. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. An Extensive Collection of Glass FlowersB. The Lives of Leopold and RudolphC. Flowers Native to the United StatesD.
