Of course，the best paper comes from wood.Wood comes from trees，and trees are plants.Vegetables and fruit and plants too，and we eat a lot of them.So can we also eat wood and paper？
Scientists say，"All food comes in some way from plants." Well，is that true？ Animals eat grass and grow fat.Then we eat their meat.Little fish eat little sea-plants; then bigger fish swim along and eat the...Chickens eat bits of grass and give us...Think for a minute.What food does not come from plants in some way？
Scientists can do wonderful things with plants.They can make food just like meat and cheese.And they can make it without the help of animals.It is very good food too.Now they have begun to say，"We make our paper from wood.We can also make food from wood.The next thing is not very difficult." What is the next thing？ Perhaps it is-food from paper.Scientists say，"We can turn paper into food.It will be good，cheap food too; cheaper than meat or fish or eggs."

Allow yourself to dream, and think big big as the sky. The world’s greatest achievers are some of the best dreamers. Walt Disney, Amelia Earhart, Henry Ford, Susan B. Anthony, Andrew Carnegie, and hundreds more, all had dreams.
Then take the first step to make your dreams come true. Form. a goal and accomplish it. Create a new goal and accomplish it. Every time you set and achieve a goal, you’ll move one step closer toward building the future you want for yourself.
When you achieve a target you’ve set for yourself, it helps build your self-confidence and teaches you self-discipline. Each goal you achieve will boost your confidence and help you set bigger goals for your future. Soon, you’ll find yourself moving on a path to success.
Steps for reaching your dreams:
It can be as easy as starting a savings account at your credit union. Give yourself a goal. First, what do you want to save for？ It might be a new CD player, your first car, or college.
Next, where will your savings come from？ Will you use a portion of your allowance, or can you think of other ways to earn money？
It’s okay to set small goals at first. In fact, that may be wise so you begin to understand the rewards and personal satisfaction that come from achieving your goals.
You can keep your goals secret or share them with someone close to you who may help you stay on track.
Another important step is to write your goal on paper. Post your written goal (or a photo of it) in your room where you can see it regularly. This will remind you of what you are working toward.
Give yourself a pat on the back when you’ve achieved your goal and start thinking about your next personal challenge.
Before you know it, you’ll be living your dreams.

Biologists today don’t expect that anyone will find a magical fountain of youth.Growing older is a natural part of the life cycle that can’t be reversed.As human beings grow older, organs such as the heart and lungs may stop functioning properly.Sight and hearing may become weak.And the human body becomes more likely to come down with serious illnesses from which it cannot recover.
Considered together, changes that bring about the decline of an organism are called aging.Because of aging, many biologists believe that there may be a maximum age limit to which even the healthiest organisms can live.For human beings, this maximum age limit is about 110 years.
Perhaps the most important thing that you can learn from your study of human biology is that you have a lot of control over the aging process in your own life.In fact, within our control are many physical and mental factors that have much to do with aging.For example, each of us, as recent research indicates, can do many things to help prevent heart and vessel disease, which causes half the death each year in the United States.We can avoid eating a lot of fatty meat.Eating too much of these types of animal fats can lead to the clogging and hardening of blood vessels.We can cut back on smoking and hopefully quit entirely.We can limit the amount of alcohol we drink and the amount of sugar we eat.We can exercise regularly and strengthen the heart and other organs.And we can remember to take time out each day for ourselves, time just relax.Exercise, recreation and relaxation all reduce stress – inner tension that is hard on all body organs.
One final thing we can do is to try to keep aware of advances made in health education.Information is often available free of charge from health clinics or schools.
1.Which of the following is the leading cause of death in the United States？
A.Heart disease.
B.Cancer
C.Alcohol
D.Smoking
2.What happens as people grow older？
A.They dream of a magic pill to help them live a happy and long life
B.They come down with serious illnesses
C.Their organs become weak and may stop working properly
D.Their blood vessels become clogged
3.In the opinion of biologists, _________.
A.the aging process can be reversed
B.the aging process can be controlled and slowed down
C.the aging process can be got rid of
D.the aging process can go beyond its limit
4.We can slow down the weakening of all our body organs by ______.
A.not eating animal fat
B.limiting drinking and smoking
C.exercise, recreation and relaxation to reduce stress
D.preventing the clogging and hardening of blood vessels
5.Besides physical and mental factors, which of the following also contributes to living a long and healthy life according tot the passage？
A.Health education
B.Traditional medicine
C.artificial organs
D.The invention of magic pills
We who take sight for granted can draw pictures of scent, but we have no language for doing it the other way about, no way to represent something visually familiar by means of actual scent. Most humans cannot know, with their limited noses, what they can imagine about being deaf, blind, mute, or paralyzed. The sighted can, for example, speak if a blind person a "in the darkness," but there is no corollary expression for what it is that we are in relationship to scent. If we tried to coin words, we might come up with something like "scent-blind." But what would it mean？ It couldn't have the sort of meaning that "color-blind" and "tone-deaf' do, because most of us have experienced what "tone" and "color" mean in those expressions "scent-blind." Scent for many of us can be only a theoretical, technical expression that we use because our grammar requires that we have a noun to go in the sentences we are prompted to utter about animals' tracking. We don't have a sense of scent. What we do have is a sense of smell-for Thanksgiving dinner and skunks and a number of things we call chemicals.
So if Fido and sitting on the terrace, admiring the view, we inhabit worlds with radically different principles of phenomenology. Say that the wind is to our backs. Our world lies all before us, within a 180 degree angle. The dog's-well, we don't know, do we？
He sees roughly the same things that I see but he believes the scents of the garden behind us. He marks the path of the black-and-white cat as she moves among the roses in search of the bits of chicken sandwich I let fall as I walked from the house to our picnic spot. T can show that Fido is alert to the kitty, but not how, for my picture-making modes of thought too easily supply falsifyingly literal representations of the cat and the garden and their modes of being hidden from or revealed to me.
The phrase "other senses are largely ancillary" (paragraph 1) is used by the author to suggest that______.
A．only those events experienced directly can be appreciated by the senses
B．for many human beings the senses of sights is the primary means of knowing about the world
C．smell is in many respects a more powerful sense than sight
D．people rely on at least one of their other senses in order to confirm what they see
Death is normal; we are genetically programmed to disintegrate and perish, even under ideal conditions. We all under stand that at some level, yet as medical consumers we treat death as a problem to be solved. Shielded by third-party payers from the cost of our care, we demand everything that can possibly be done for us, even if it's useless. The most obvious example is late-stage cancer care. Physicians—frustrated by their inability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patient—too often offer aggressive treatment far beyond what is scientifically justified.
In 1950, the U.S. spent $12.7 billion on health care. In 2002, the cost will be $1540 billion. Anyone can see this trend is unsustainable. Yet few seem willing to try to reverse it. Some scholars conclude that a government with finite re sources should simply stop paying for medical care that sustains life beyond a certain age—say 83 or so. Former Colorado governor Richard Lamm has been quoted as saying that the old and infirm "have a duty to die and get out of the way", so that younger, healthier people can realize their potential.
I would not go that far. Energetic people now routinely work through their 60s and beyond, and remain dazzlingly productive. At 78, Viacom chairman Stunner Redstone jokingly claims to be 53. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor is in her 70s, and former surgeon general C. Everett Koop chairs an Internet start-up in his 80s. These leaders are living proof that prevention works and that we can manage the health problems that come naturally with age. As a mere 68-year-old, I wish to age as productively as they have.
Yet there are limits to what a society can spend in this pursuit. Ask a physician, I know the most costly and dramatic measures may be ineffective and painful. I also know that people in Japan and Sweden, countries that spend far less on medical care, have achieved longer, healthier lives than we have. As a nation, we may be overfunding the quest for unlikely cures while underfunding research on humbler therapies that could improve people's lives.
What is implied in the first sentence？
A．Americans are better prepared for death than other people.
B．Americans enjoy a higher life quality than ever before.
C．Americans are over-confident of their medical technology.
D．Americans take a vain pride in their long life expectancy.
Perhaps the most startling theory to come out of kinesics, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Birdwhistell.He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed.In other words, we learn our books, but we are not born with them.A baby has generally unformed facial features.A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around family and friends.This helps explain why the people of some regions of the United States look so much alike.New Englanders or Southerners have certain common facial characteristics that cannot be explained by genetics.The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth;it is learned after.In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after permanent teeth are set.For many, this can be well in adolescence.A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike.We learn our looks from those around us.This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas.In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where the people smile more frequently.In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York state still less.Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia.People in densely populated urban areas also tend to smile and greet each other in public less than do people in rural areas and small towns.()
A.Ray Birdwhistell can tell what region of the United States a person is form. by how much he or she smiles
B.Ray Birdwhistell is a leader in the field of kinesics
C.Ray Birdwhistell says that our physical appearance is influenced by the appearance of people around us
D.People who live in the country are more friendly than people who live in densely populated areas
A.Will you come with your boyfriend?
B.Really? Congratulations!
C.I forgot to tell you my address.

B. Americans enjoy a higher life quality than ever before.
C. Americans are over-confident of their medical technology.
D. Americans take a vain pride in their long life expectancy.
By the millions they are coming no longer the tired, the poor, the wretched masses longing for a better living.These are the wealthy.“We don’t have a budget,” says a biologist from Brazil, as she walks with two companions through New York City’s South Street.“We just use our credit cards.”
The US has long been one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations, but this year has been exceptional.First, there was the World Cup, which drew thousands from every corner of the globe; then came the weakening of the US dollar against major currencies.Now the US, still the world’s superpower, can also claim to be the world’s bargain basement (廉价商品部).Nobody undersells America these days on just about everything, from consumer electronics to fashion clothes to tennis rackets.Bottom retail prices anywhere from 30% to 70% lower than those in Europe and Asia have attracted some 47 million visitors, who are expected to leave behind $ 79 billion in 1994.That’s up from $ 74 billion the year before.
True, not everyone comes just for bargains.There remains an undeniable fascination in the rest of the world with all things American, nourished by Hollywood films and US television series.But shopping the USA is proving irresistible.Every week thousands arrive with empty suitcases ready to be filled; some even rent an additional hotel room to hold their purchases.The buying binge (无节制) has become as important as watching Old Faithful Fountains erupt in Yellowstone Park or sunbathing on a beach in Florida.
The US has come at last to appreciate what other countries learned long ago: the puring in of foreign tourists may not always be convenient, but it does put money in the bank.And with a trade deficit at about $ 130 billion and growing for the past 12 months, the US needs all the deposits it can get.Compared with American tourists abroad, visitors to the US stay longer and spend more money at each stop; an average of 12.2 night and $ 1624 a traveler versus the Americans’ four nights and $ 298.
31.From what the Brazilian biologist says, we know that tourists like her.
A.are reluctant to carry cash with them.
B.simply don’t care how much they spend.
C.are not good at planning their expenditure.
D.often spend more money than they can afford.
32.The reason why 1994 was exceptional is that.
A.it saw an unusually large number of tourists to the US
B.it witnessed a drop in the number of tourists to the US.
C.tourism was hardly affected by the weakening of the US dollar that year.
D.tourists came to the US for sightseeing rather than for bargains that year.
33.By saying “Nobody undersells America” (Underlined), the author means that .
A.no other country underestimates the competitiveness of American products.
B.Nobody expects the Americans to cut the prices of their commodities.
C.nobdy restrains the selling of American goods.
D.no other country sells at a lower price than America.
34.Why does the author assert that all things American are fascinating to foreigners？
A.Because they have gained much publicity through the American media.
B.Because they represent the world’s latest fashions.
C.Because they embody the most sophisticated technology.
D.Because they are available at all tourist destinations.
35.From the passage we can conclude that the US has come to realize.
A.the weakening of the US dollar can result in trade deficits.
B.the lower the retail prices, the greater in profits.
C.tourism can make great contributions to its economy.
D.visitors to the US are wealthier than US tourists abroad.
Fashion is a hard business. There is a continuous amount of stress because work is at a constant breakneck (高速而危险的) speed to prepare for the next season's collections. It is extremely competitive and there is the constant need to cultivate good coverage in newspapers and magazines. It al so requires continual freshness because the appetite for new ideas is hard to satisfy. "We try to warn people before they come to us about how tough it is," says Lydia Kemeny, the Head of Fashion at St. Martin's School of Art in London. "And we point out that drive and determination are essential."
This may seem far removed from the popular image of fashionable young people spending their time designing pretty dresses, That may well be what they do in their first year of study but a good college won't be slow in introducing students to commercial realities. "We don't stamp on the blossoming flower of creativity but in the second year we start introducing the constraints of price, manufacturability, marketing and so on."
Almost all fashion design is done to a brief. It is not a form. of self-expression as such, although there is certainly room for imagination and innovation. Most young designers are going to end up as employees of a manufacturer or fashion house and they still need to be able to work within the characteristic style. of their employer. Even those students who are most avant-garde (标新立异的) in their own taste of clothes and image may need to adapt to produce designs which are right for the main stream of market. They also have to be able to work at both tire exclusively expensive and the cheap end of the market and the challenge to produce good design inexpensively may well be demanding.
To be successful as a fashion designer you must ______.
A．have excellent academic qualifications
B．be able to handle business problems
C．be well established before you are 20
D．have taken an intensive commercial course
