You are visiting the Eiffel Tower in France, but the next second you are in Thailand. Then, suddenly you may have dinner with Barack Obama in America. But you are not dreaming. This is what might happen in the near future. With the help of virtual reality (VR, 虚拟现实) technology, a lot of changes are taking place in our life.

VR is a computer technology that makes an environment and allows users to see and even interact (互动) with it. Just wear a pair of VR glasses joined to your computer and you can experience a lot of things without stepping out of

your room.

“The most interesting part of VR is that it offers an immersive experience,”said Wang Bing, leader of the Chinese entertainment company Funshow. “That’s why VR movies are popular among users. You become a part of the story.”According to the Report on Chinese VR Users’Behavior last month, over 960,000 people in China have bought VR products and 83.2 percent of them have watched VR movies.

VR can also be used in some other ways. It can help to train workers before they have to work in highly dangerous environments. VR also helps patients with acrophobia (恐高症) by making them think they are standing on the top of a tall building.

However, VR technology still has a long way to go. Users report feeling sick while wearing VR glasses. Maybe it could take a period of time for VR to be widely used around the world.

“Who does the cooking in your home?”I’m often asked by my colleagues. “My wife and I share it 50/50,”I usually say without hesitation.

It’s a lie, of course. We’re pretty much even（相等的）when it comes to the children and the elderly. But the paying of bills isn’t 50/50-my wife pays all sorts of household expenses, so I never even have to set eyes on them.

And the cooking isn’t 50/50, either.

The truth is that I am the cook. On my recent 40th birthday, I received the following gifts from my children: a new pot, two mini bottles of truffle oil, a decorative salad-dressing pourer, and a juice-making machine. For a moment I longed for something more manly, a cricket bat, perhaps, and then had to admit that all these things would be useful for me.

It’s not that my wife can’t or doesn’t like to cook (she makes delicious Welsh cakes). Nor has it always been this way. In the early years of our marriage I’d be relaxing with a glass of wine while my wife prepared for dinner after work.

But at some point that changed and I became the cook. Ten years with my wife gave me the rewards-I can throw together a roast, and I can make much foreign food. But I have truly become a monster（怪物）in the kitchen, unable to keep myself away from cooking. “You have to add Dijon to the sauce; it brings out the taste of the cheese,”I volunteer, as my wife is cooking. “Quick, stir in the butter so the dish becomes delicious.”

Is it any wonder that my wife has given up coming into the kitchen while I find the whole process of chopping, mixing, and adding things deeply satisfying?

( )1．What do the writer and his wife probably share evenly at home?

a．Cooking in the kitchen. b．Taking care of the children.

c．Paying household expenses. d．Taking care of the elderly at home.

A．ab B．bc C．bd D．ac

( )2．The gifts that the writer received on his 40th birthday show that .

A．his children don’t know him at all

B．he is in charge of the cooking at home

C．he doesn’t get along well with his children

D．his children have made wrong choices

( )3．What do we know about the writer’s wife?

A．She can’t cook. B．She doesn’t like cooking.

C．She used to cook for the family. D．She only knows how to make Welsh cakes.

( )4．From Paragraph 5 we learn that the writer .

A．likes sticking his nose into other people’s business

B．doesn’t think his wife is good at cooking

C．studies very hard in order to cook well

D．enjoys cooking in the kitchen

Different countries have different customs. When you travel to other countries, please follow their customs, just as the saying goes, “_____________________”.

Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip. It is usual to tip porters who help carry your bags, taxi drivers and waiters. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.

In England, make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It’s important to respect lines there. It’s a good idea to talk about the weather. It’s a favourite subject of conversation with the British.

In Spain, it’s a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not generally open until after 9 p.m.

In Arab countries, men kiss one another on the cheek(脸颊). Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite of you to do the same.

In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don’t put it into your pocket right away. The person expects you to read it.

Don’t forget to be careful of your body language to express something in conversation. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.

Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries. Have a look in

your fridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins(来源) of the food. Perhaps

there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You

will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey, from

“field to plate”，is called “food miles”. A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer's field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者). Why is this, and what is the influence of these long distances?

Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market, so the food didn't have to travel very far. The consumers also did not travel very far because they went to their local market to buy the food. This was a good system for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvantages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. Besides, they could only get food that was in season. Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want.

Some countries have to import(进口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries. Even food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.

What's wrong with “food miles”？Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeys. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.

1. What is called “food miles”according to this passage?

A. The origins of the food.

B. The effects of longs distances.

C. The journey from field to plate.

D. The disadvantages of imported food.

2. The underlined word “available”in Paragraph 2 most probably means “”．

A. easy to get

B. not busy

C. willing to talk

D. Impossible to get

3. Some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, have to import most of their food because of ．

A. long distances

B. difficult climates

C. fresh and tasty food

D. modern technology

4. The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to ．

A. buy more local food

B. increase international trade

C. travel long distances

D. use imported materials

A. how local food travels from field to plate
