阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things. A person
who eats such food can get an illness called food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most common symptoms.
Certain microorganisms(微生物) cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other microorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many
other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things release(释放) poisons that make people sick.
Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown, processed, or prepared. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to kill weeds and insects. Some people may have a bad reaction to those chemicals when they eat the crops. Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.
When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms multiply rapidly in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill
any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be
poisonous.
Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons,
they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.
1. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Food when poisoned can make people sick. B. Food poisoning means death.

3. Food poisoning can be caused by all the following EXCEPT

4. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that .
A. mushrooms should not be eaten
B. vegetables are safer than meat and seafood

Plastic sludge(污泥)and garbage is a disaster for the world's oceans. A film crew traveled the
globe to document the rubbish. And Julie Andersen of the Plastic Oceans Foundation says what
we see is just the tip of the problem. “Half of the waste actually sinks to the bottom, and that
remains on the surface actually breaks down. ”
The filmmakers found rubbish in ocean gyres, the circulating currents that trap large
concentrations of pollution in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacifc Oceans, home of what some have
plastic. What we found was a plastic smog that spread throughout all the water. And in some
parts of the oceans, scientists have found more plastic than plant. ”
The pieces of the plastic garbage infect the food chain, sometimes visibly, and more so at the

Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made. Your future
begins here.
However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environm
ent. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed(压垮) by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of other who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find of use about life on campus.
Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university, social and academic(学术的). Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely. If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day time, a computer date book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.

Inside their one-store, metal-roofed house on Vancouver Island’s west coast,Janet Schwartz and her domesticated(驯养的) deer, Bimbo, are returning to their normal lives. The law-represented by men and women dressed in black uniforms and carrying guns — is no longer threatening to forcibly separate Schwartz and Bimbo,freeing the l0-year-old deer to the fates (命运) of the surrounding rainforest and its hungry wolves and black bears.
“We love each other,”said Schwartz who turned 70 on Saturday. “she’ll come up to me and she’ll kiss me right on the lips,like a man kisses a woman’’
For four days last week,Schwartz’ life turned as rocky as the rough logging road that connected her life to the outside world. Conservation officers had arrived with orders to loose Bimbo. Schwartz was told she wasn’t allowed to touch Bimbo any more. It seemed somebody had complained,said Environment Minister Terry Lake earlier in the week, noting it’s illegal to keep wild animals as pets.

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed(展现) herself as she did nowhere else.
After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate(巨头) Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline’s close friend and former White House social secretary Letitia Baldrige made a suggestion

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier,only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps,after all,it is safer to be driven by a woman.
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a
man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red,orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare
cases an unlucky man see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”.These help us see in a bright day and tell the difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects,but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have
