31、n your preference of one alternative to the other.In fact that is what life is like: we are often faced with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like newspaper cutting.

32、re important than Se latter and give rise to a divided mind. I still remember a philosophers (哲学家) remarks: “When one door shuts, another opens in life.“ So a passive choice may not be bad one.Whatever we do in our lifetime, wherever lifes storm makes us go, there must be something we can achieve, s
33、ome shore we can land on. Dont forget God always keeps an alternative door open for everyone. While the front door is closed, Sere must be another open door for you.（分数：5.00）(1).The main idea of this passage is_.A. where theres a will, theres a wayB. cutting newspapers gives us a lessonC. all roads

38、to buy organic food.“Organic produce is always better, “ Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides (农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.

39、pers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce?
