AStores, farmer markets, gas stations and restaurants have been interested in the organic(有机的) food. However, it can be difficult to tell natural foods from organ ic foods. Most people don‟t know that there is a major difference between the two foods. No one seems to be able to determine which is which, creating a lot of confusion for people who are truly concerned with buying the best and healthiest products.In 2000, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) published its official position on organic foods and made its production controlled by a strict law. While there are several standards for organic foods, foods must be grown without the use of antibiotics(抗生素)，growth hormones(激素)，chemical things and so on. The leaves of plants are one of the best choices.On the other hand, natural foods have no legal rules, and are not controlled by any law. The USDA does require that seller should list the parts of natural foods, but there are no official rules for the amount of natural parts a food must contain. A natural food is usually considered to contain less chemical things, though there is no way to keep an eye on the product.The USDA has guidelines for organic production. When considering buying organic foods, you must take into consideration that the organic meat, eggs and milk products must come from animals that are given no antibiotics or growth hormones.Due to higher labor costs, organic products cost 40% to 120% more compared with their natural foods. The most important thing to remember is to eat a variety of healthy foods, organic or natural foods. Eating more fruits, vegetables, low-fat and whole grains will be good for our health.21. What can be used in growing organic foods?A. Chemical things.B. Antibiotics.C. The leaves of trees.D. Growth hormones.22. What is the attitude of the author towards the quality of natural foods?A. Worried.B. Interested.C. Unconcerned.D. positive.23. The passage is developed ______.A. by spaceB. by comparisonC. by processD. by time24. What may be the main idea of the text?A. The advantages of organic foods.B. The function of organic foods.C. The differences between natural foods and organic foods.D. The importance of organic foods and natural foods.BRecently, I came across an interesting article on the differences between British English and American English. I had a lot of fun reading it and thinking of as many differences as I could as an American.Their cars have “bonnets(发动机罩)”，while ours have “hoods”. They park their cars in a “car park” while we leave our in a “parking lot”. Our “cookies” are their “biscuits”, while their “rubbers”are our “erasers”.Then there are the food words. Would you want to eat something called “Toad in the Hole” or “Bangers and Mash” or “Spotted Dick”? I‟m here to report they are all very tasty. There are American equivalents(相等物)，of course. We‟ve got “Shoofly Mud Pie”. What they call “crisps” is what we call “potato chips” and when we ask for “chips” in England we will get what we know at home in America as “French fries”.They find it hysterical that we call the “toilet” the “bathroom” and they really do uble over (弯腰) with laughter when we ask for the “restroom”. American ladies in England who ask for the “little girl‟s room” or the “power room” will be met with blank stares. A “fag” is a “cigarette” in the UK, which can lead to endless confusion for British visitors looking for a cigarette in America. Americans on the other hand are endlessly confused by English signs put up over doorways saying “Way Out”. We Americans walk on the sidewalk not the pavement. “Pavement” in America is the actual cement(水泥)the sidewalk is made of.25. What do British people call French fries?A. Chips.B. Crisps.C. Shoofly Pie.D. Mississippi MudPie.26. The examples given at the end of the passage mainly show that ____.A. Americans don‟t like dealing with t he BritishB. American English is very different from British EnglishC. English signs are very hard for people to understandD. Americans and the British may find it hard to understand each other27. What does the underlined word “hysterical” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A. FunnyB. DifficultC. PerfectD. Normal28. What is the passage mainly about?A. Some similar habits between Americans and the British.B. Different communicating ways between Americans and the British.C. Different body languages between Americans and the British.D. Some differences between American English and British English.CTree-planting is an important part of the ongoing Richmond renaissance that has been changing the city for the last few years.
