In the same way that a mountain climber dreams of climbing the world's highest mountain, I dreamed about flying non-stop around the world.I spent six years planning the flight and failed twice before I and my team managed to succeed. For some reason, we had to go first to North Africa to catch the right winds. That added 10 ,000 kilometers, and another week, to our journey. But because of this, our flight broke all the records for distance and time spent in the air.The most memorable part of the trip for me is that we lived in the air for 20 days and that the rising sun was the most amazing thing we saw. We had to go out of the b alloon’s capsule , in which we were transported, three times while in the air to repair the fuel system. We didn’t have any safety equipment but when you are in a situation like that, you just do what you have to do without thinking about feeling afraid.Landing was a fantastic moment. I remember that when I got out of the capsule, I looked at my footprint in the sand. I remembered the astronaut Neil Armstrong, who was so happy to put his footprint on the moon,so far away from Earth. At that moment,I was so happy to have my foot back on Earth!24. The author became interested in ballooning because of .A. a cross-ocean raceB. a mountain climbC. a childhood dreamD. a long sea journey25.

But recently, black cats can no longer enjoy so much favor.The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals （英国防止虐待动物协会）announced a rise in the number of black cats being abandone d by their owners, due to not looking good in selfies（自拍）.According to the RSPCA, more than 70 percent of the ca ts in its care are black. The biggest reason for that is black cats tend not to photograph as their lighter and brighter-colored fellows with more obvious markings. An RSPCA spok esman said, “This has become a national problem. And we ar e urging people to never judge a cat by its color but look at its personality instead.”The Millwood Cat Rescue Centre has taken in nice black cats in the past two weeks. The founder of the rescue centre said, “We have had a lot of black cats because people don’t like bla ck at the moment. Other look at the black cats and then just s ay ‘Oh, have you got anything else?’”Animal lover Gabriella Fletcher owns a 16-year-old black cat, Susie. She regularly takes selfies with her pet. She said, “It is hard to get a good picture as you can’t really s ee how beautiful Susie is. She is just as special as any other cat.”25.Why are black cats less favored by people?A.

People a re unwilling to see so many black cats.27.In Gabriella Fletcher’s eyes, black cats are_______.A. disgustingB. unluckyC. ordinaryD. attractive28.Which of the following can be the best title of this text?A. Black cats out in “selfies”.B. Black cats abandoned in t he .C. Black cats in need of caring.D. Black c ats favored again.CIn , few of the older people can speak some English, and mos t of them can’t say a word. They will often smile and laugh whi le trying to help English-speaking foreigners. But recently English learning has becom e popular with the youth. If you really need help, it is better to go younger. A lot of university students or young adults can s peak at least basic English and will usually be very willing to h elp you. Actually even if you just look lost, a younger Korean will probably ask you if you need help. A lot of Koreans will ta ke the chance to help you in order just to practice their English skills—a win-win situation. Everyone in Korea takes English classes these days starting from elementary(初级的) school normally. Many also join in after-school programs for studies.I was in my friend’s city which was about 4 hours’ driving from mine. In my city, they had the timetable in English as well as Korean, but that wasn’t the case here. I could not read Korea n at that time, so I could not find when my bus was planned to leave, and did not know how to ask. Luckily, as I was looking at the timetable wit h the eyes wide open (probably with a puzzled, or perplexed l ook on my face), a Korean person asked me if I need help. I t old him where I was going and he showed me the timetable a nd even helped me buy my ticket!29 What can we know from Paragraph1?A Most of the order Koreans speak English very well.B All the Koreans are asked to learn to speak English.C The young Koreans are not good at speaking English.D English has won popularity with young people in .30 Many Koreans are willing to help lost foreigners to _______ ____.A make many friends with foreignersB make use of the chance to practice EnglishC show their kindness and respect to foreignersD show off their own ability to speak English31 What does the underlined word “perplexed” mean?A Difficult to expressB Very satisfiedC Unable to understandD Very surprised32 What can we know about the writer?A He is probably fromB His native languag e is EnglishC He went to to learn KoreanD He is grateful to the Korean person who helped him.DIn the early days of human history, people survived by hunting wild animals, or gathering wild grains and plants for food. The n, some people learned to grow crops and raise animals for fo od. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agri cultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm” is l inked to economics. The word “farm” comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. Experts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly p ayment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In , farmers used hawthorn trees alo ng the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a h edge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and pr otected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging” t o describe steps that could be taken to protect against financi al loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other tea m, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he inves ts in several different kinds of business. One business may fai l, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered wh en it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his h ay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise pe rson copies the farmer. He works when conditions are right.33 We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early _________.A had land of their ownB paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC used hedging fieldsD often suffered from financial loss34 Which of the following is wise?A A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD Gather hay as it is rainy35 If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he lear ns to _________.A become a wise farmerB hedge his betC gather his hayD make hay while the sun shines第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AA young father was visiting an old neighbor. They were standi ng in the old man’s garden, and talking about children.

(606)668-6222COne day, when I was working as a psychologist in England , an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his ha nds shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me.“This boy has lost his family," he wrote. “He is understandabl y very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?”I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I h elp him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the an swer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the be st thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. l suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesda y afternoon——in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twi ce.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up bef ore I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoye d my company. But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,”I thought. “Perhaps he senses that I respect his sufferin g.” So me months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly."It’s your turn," he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in schoo l and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into uni versity. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one — without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a should er to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.8.When he first met the author, David___________.A.felt a little excited.B.walked energetically.C.looked a little nervous.D.showed up with his teacher.9.As a psychologist, the author_________.A.was ready to listen to David.B.was skeptical about psychology.C.was able to describe David’s problem.D.was sure of handling David’s problem.10.David enjoyed being with the author because he_________ _.A.wanted to ask the author for advice.B.needed to share sorrow with the author.C.liked the children's drawings in the office.D.beat the author many times in the chess game.11.What can be inferred about David?A.He recovered after months of treatment.B.He liked biking before he lost his family.C.He went into university soon after starting to talk.D.He got friends in school before he met the author.DTwo studies show that fatness and alcohol(酒精) act together to increase the risk of illness in both men and women.In the first study, researchers examined the connection b etween body mass index (BMI) and liver cirrhosis(肝硬化) in 1.2 million middle-aged women. Each woman was followed for 6.2 years.Compared to the women of a healthy weight, the women who were overweight had an increased risk of liver cirrhosis. And through the study we can see that alcohol is dangerous f or people’s health.For example, among the women who were reported drinki ng about a third to half a drink a day,0.8 in 1,000 would go to t he hospital with liver cirrhosis or would die from liver cirrhosis over five years if they were of healthy weight compared with 1 in 1,000 women who were overweight. However, among the women who were reported drinking two and a half drinks a da y ,2.7 in 1,000 would go to the hospital with liver cirrhosis or w ould succumb to liver cirrhosis over five years if they were of healthy weight compared with 5 in 1,000 women who were ov erweight.In the second study, researchers surveyed the influence of BMI and drinking on the body in more than 9,000 men. The y were followed for 29 years.Both BMI and drinking were connected with liver disease and, more importantly, if they worked together, the influence was greater than that of BMI or drinking alone. For example, o verweight men who were reported drinking 15 or more units p er week had the greatest risk of liver disease.Both studies show that, from a public health view, methods to reduce both excessive (过度的) drinking and excessive body weight should reduce the cha nce of liver disease.12.What did the researchers mainly focus on in the first study ?A.The connection between fatness and drinking.B.The influence of BMI and drinking on the body.C.The connection between BMI and liver cirrhosis.D.The reason why women are easy to get overweight.13.The underlined phrase “succumb to” in Paragraph 4 most probably means .A.stand forB.die ofC.get overD.change into14.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.improving body mass index is very difficult.B.the two studies arrived at different conclusions.C.it took researchers a long time to do the two studies.D.drinking alcohol leads to fatness in both men and women.15.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A.The Influence of Excessive Drinking on Our Health.B.The Connection Between Fatness and Liver Cirrhosis.C.The Normal Amount of Drinking Each Day for Adults.D.The Increase in the Risk of Illness Caused by Fatness and Alcohol.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake. They stoppedthere and Buddha told one of his followers,“ I am thirsty. Please get me some water fromthat lake there”.The follower walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that some people werewashing clothes in the water and, right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossingthe lake right at the edge of it. As a result, the water became very muddy, very dirty. Thefollower thought,“ How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?!” So he cameback and told the Buddha,“ The water in there is very muddy. I don’ t think it is fit todrink ”.So, the Buddha said, let us take a little rest here by the tree. After about half an hour,again Buddha asked the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water todrink. The follower obediently (顺从地 ) went back to the lake. This time he found that thelake had absolutely clear water in it. The mud had settled down and the water above itlooked fit to be had. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to the Buddha.The Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the follower and said,“ See, you let the water be and the mud settled down on its own. You got clear water. It didn’ t req any effort”.Our mind is also like that. When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time and it willsettle down on its own.

So our aim is a fully autonomous car that gets rid of the cause of most accidents:the driver.Researcher Hodgson points out,“ For safety,the faster you can removehumans, the better, even if there are unfortunately a few accidents from new causes. It sa question of balancing the number injured or killed by autonomous vehicles with thepeople whose lives are potentially saved.”It ’ s an idea that Elon Musk, chief executive of electric car company Tesla Motors, has longbelieved. His company is determined to be the first to deliver a fully autonomous vehicleto consumers. Last year, Musk announced that Tesla’ s 2017 goal was“ to do an example drive of full autonomy all the way from LA to New York⋯ and have the car park itself.”However, even Tesla admits that there are problems to overcome — the software needsfurther validation and the appropriate regulatory approval needs to be in place. Indeed,recent crashes of Tesla vehicles and Google cars confirm that the software isn’ t ready yet The UK government appears committed to encouraging the development of autonomousvehicles. It’ s supporting four city trials, publishing the Modem Transport Bill to reducered tape around their introduction and adapting the legal system to take into accountpr oblems such as insurance liability when a human isn’ t in control of a vehicle.The insurance industry is similarly eager to help increase autonomy in cars.As theAssociation of British Insurers (ABI) points out,“ More than 90 per cent of road accidentsar e caused by human error. ”This costs motor insurers a shocking￡ 20m per day inclaims.12.What difficulty does the company Tesla Motors have?A.

ALast night, on my way home I stopped because of being attracted by some hamburgers at a fast food restaurant. On m y way in, a homeless man approached me and asked, “Do you have any bottles lying around?” I knew he would recycle them for a few cents, but I didn’t have any, so I said no. And again he asked, “Can you spare some change?” I smiled, and said no again. He wa s very respectful; he smiled back and said, “OK, thank you.” Even though he didn’t have anything, he was still in good spirits. From the way he spoke I could tell he was smart.Then I bought one hamburger and enjoyed my meal, but in the back of my mind I wondered whether the homeless man was hungry. After I finished my meal I decided to order another one for him. At this point I didn’t know if he was still around, but I tried anyway.At the counter I ordered a hamburger and also a hot chocolate, because it was cold outside, and I thought it would help warm him up. They delivered me the hot chocolate first and as I waited for my hamburger, I noticed the homeless man was standing right beside me. I looked at him and smiled, “This hot chocolate is for you.” He replied like a gentleman, “Thank you so much. That’s very kind of you.”I always believe no matter how hard up I am, there are always those who are worse off than I. When you help someone, it’s not always about money, it’s about love. The love you give t oday, someone might forget tomorrow. It doesn’t matter. Love anyway, because the greatest thing you can give is love.1. What does the underlined phrase mean according to the passage?A. Rich in money.B. Selfish.C. Generous.D. Short in money.2. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that the author _____.A. was angry with the homeless manB. was an old friend of the homeless manC. decided to help the homeless man after his mealD. finished his meal quickly to help the homeless man3. We can infer from the text that the homeless man was _____.A. old and sickB. sad and nervousC. polite and friendlyD. calm and confident 4. The author wants to tell us that _____.A. there is always someone that we can helpB. money cannot buy everythingC.love cannot be forcedD. we shouldn’t forget those who once helped usBWhy is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils (灾祸).People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions (反应) toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomachaches.Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites (食欲). Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.5. Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their .A. commercial purposesB. personal experiencesC. cultural valuesD. physical reactions to the color6.Why will many commercial websites have a red “Buy Now” but ton?A. To encourage people to buy the goods.B. To increase people’s appetites.C. To relax people physically.D. To cause a person’s blood pressure to rise.7. What color might help lose weight according to the text?A. RedB. Blue.C. PurpleD. Green.C最新中小学教案、试题、试卷What do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? You may blow it away. But what if that insect is a ladybug (瓢虫)? It is possible that you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good lucky sign. A ladybug in the field meant the crops would be successful and that the weather would be good. The farmers may have thought too highly of such a small bug, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats other insects. It's the baby ladybug. When the baby ladybugs hatch(孵化), they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealybugs, green flies, and other crop－destroyers. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. They completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off a dangerous fluid (液体). Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and stay still until their attacker goes away.So the next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be doing. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead or standupto a bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it's letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.8．Ladybugs were brought from Australia to California in the 1800s to ________.A . add more ladybugs to the areaB．report the weather for farmersC．act as a lucky sign of good cropsD．save orange trees by eating insects9．From the passage we know that ________.A．it' s the adult ladybug that eats most of the harmful insectsB．ladybugs often roll off a leaf and play dead to attack the birdsC．ladybugs can give off a dangerous fluid to protect themselvesD．the baby ladybug mainly eats mites, aphids, mealybugs, and oranges10．The underlined phrase “stand up to” most probably means ________.A．fight B．support C．admire D．watch11．Which of the following may the author agree with?A．Ladybugs do harm to nature.B．Ladybugs are unusual insects.C．Ladybugs are dangerous insects.D．Ladybugs eat more than they should.DWhen students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance ,the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list . Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority (优先). This view is shortsighted. In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students.Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.Music provides a kind of perception(感知)that cannot be acquired any other way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore emotive(情感的) meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all.The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love.So music education is far more necessary than people to realize.12. According to Paragraph 1, students______.A. view music as an overlooked subjectB. disagree with their parents on educationC. regard music as a way of entertainmentD. prefer the arts to science13. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to ________.A. compare it with rock musicB. show music identifies a society。

His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialties(特色菜) in Germany, Spain, and France.At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named campus cuisine(菜肴) about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like making drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma is key. “Food TV isn’t about food anymore,” says Flay. “It’s about your personality and finding a way to keep peopl e’s eyeballs on your show.”But Lieberman isn’t putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing sandwiches. An airline company was looking for someone to come up with a tasteful, inexpensive and easy- to-make menu to serve on its flights. Lieberman got the job.4. We can learn from the text that Lieberman’s family_______.A. have relatives in EuropeB. love cooking at homeC. often hold partiesD. own a restaurant5. The Food Network got to know Lieberman_________A. at one of his paritiesB. from his teachersC. through his taped showD. on a television program6. What does the word “charisma” underlined in the text refer to?A. A natural ability to attract others.B. A way to show one’s achievement.C. Lieberman’s after-class interest.D. Lieberman’s fine cooking skill.7. What can we learn about Lieberman from the text?A. He is clever but lonely.B. He is friendly and active.C. He enjoys traveling around.D. He often changes his menus.CMonkeys are very similar to us in many ways. Most have ten fingers and ten toes, and brains much like ours. In fact, Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution says that monkey and humans share a common ancestor（祖先）. We enjoy watching them because they often act like us, and we also love to use many expressions about monkeys in almost every language. This is why many monkey expressions are about tricky people or playful acts.Monkeyshine is one of the expressions to show tricks or foolish acts. The meaning is clear if you have ever watched a group of monkeys playfully chasing each other:pulling tails, stealing food, doing tricks.Monkeying around with something means that you do not know what you are doing. When you feel like doing something but have no firm idea of what to do, you are monkeying around. It is just a way to pass the time.Monkey business usually means secret, maybe illegal activities. You may come across a new report that there is monkey business involved in building the new airport, with some officials getting secret payments from builders.Monkey suits are common names for clothes or uniforms soldiers wear. In earlier years in many American cities, you would find men playing musical band organs（风琴）on the street. Dancing to the music would be the man’s small monkey that was dressed in a tight-fitting, colorful jacket similar to a military uniform. So, people began to call a military（军队的） uniform a monkey suit.8. Which of the following is NOT true about the similarities between human andmonkey?A. Most monkeys have ten fingers and toes.B. Monkeys have the same brains as humans.C. Monkeys often act like humans in many ways.D. Monkeys are humans’ closest relative s in species.9. According to the passage, an idle(懒散的) wander on the street can be described as______.A. monkeyshineB. monkeying aroundC. a monkey suitD. monkey business10. Monkey suits are commonly used to call military uniforms because they ______.A. are created particularly for soldiers’ uniforms.B. are originally designed for American soldiers.C. share typical（典型的）features with military uniforms.D. make American soldiers look like monkeys.11. Most monkey expressions are ______.A. used only in western cultures.B. used on some formal occasions.C. about tricks and naughtiness.D. about terrible funny behaviors.DDo you like to eat out? Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners（路边餐馆）for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reasons.A man named Walte r Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It wasn’t a real diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs.In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools（凳子）, and people sat down while they ate.Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, peoplewere able to eat in diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original （最初的） menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner. Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.12.What meals did the first diners serve?A. Only breakfastB. Only lunchC. Only night-mealsD. All of the above13.According to paragraph 5, diners changed in __________A. Two waysB. three waysC. four waysD. five ways14.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Diners existed before a fast-food restaurantB. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurantD. Sandwiches became smaller15.The main idea of the passage is that ______________.A. the diner is a traditional and popular place to eat in the United States.B. Samuel Johns built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside.C. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customers.D. Diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）What makes one person more intelligent than another？What makes one person a genius，like the brilliant Albert Einstein，and another person a fool？Are people born intelligent or stupid，or is intelligence the result of where and how you live？__16__We know，however，that just being born with a good mind is not enough.
