But the casual Prime Minister Tony Blair

25、has problems with them. Reports suggest that even the civil servants may stop wearing ties. So, are the famously formal British really going to abandon the neckties? Maybe. Last week, the UKs Cabinet Secretary Andrew Turnbull openly welcomed a tieless era. He hinted that civil servants would soon be

26、 free of the costliest 12 inches of fabric that most men ever buy in their lives. In fact， Blair showed this attitude when he had his first guests to a cocktail party. Many of them were celebrities （知名人士） without ties， which would have been unimaginable even in the recent past. For some more conserv

27、ative British, the tie is a must for proper appearance. Earlier, Labor leader Jim Callaghan said he would have died rather than have his children seen in public without a tie. For people like Callaghan, the tie was a sign of being complete, of showing respect. Men were supposed to wear a tie when go

28、ing to church, to work in the office, to a party-almost every social occasion. But today, people have begun to accept a casual style even for formal occasions. The origin of the tie is tricky. It started as something called simply a “band“. The term could mean anything around a mans neck. It appeare

29、d in finer ways in the 1630s. Frenchmen showed a love of this particular fashion statement. Their neckwear （颈饰） impressed Charles II， the king of England who was exiled （流放） to France at that time. When he returned to England in 1660， he brought this new fashion item along with him. It wasnt, howeve

30、r, until the late 18th century that fancy young men introduced a more colorful, flowing piece of cloth that eventually became known as the tie. Then, clubs military institutions and schools began to use colored and patterned ties to indicate the wearers membership in the late 19th century. After tha

31、t, the tie became a necessary item of clothing for British gentlemen. But now, even gentlemen are getting tired of ties. Anyway, the day feels a bit easier when you wake up without having to decide which tie suits you and your mood. （分数：15.00）(1).The tie symbolizes all of the following except （分数：3.

32、00）A.respect.B.elegance.C.democracy.D.politeness.(2).Why does Blair sometimes show up in a formal event without a tie? （分数：3.00）A.Because he wants to make a show.B.Because he wants to attract attention.C.Because he wants to live in a casual way.D.Because ties are costly.(3).Which of the following is

34、（分数：3.00）A.In the 1630s,B.After the late 19thcentury.C.In 1660.D.In the late 18th century.第二篇 Why Not Eat Breakfast？ Breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day, it is also the most neglected or skipped. Common reasons for not eating breakfast include lack of time, not feeling hungry, t

35、raditional dislike for breakfast, and dieting. Breakfast simply means “break the fast.“ Your body spends at least six to twelve hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy to rev up （转动起来） into high gear for the days work ahead. If you skip breakfast， you are likely to

36、 concentrate less effectively in the late morning， feel irritable， short-tempered（易怒的），tired， or weak. When you choose not to eat breakfast, your body stays in slow gear. Also, people who skip breakfast often binge （无节制的大吃） later in the day at other meals or eat a high-calorie （高卡路里） snack in the mo

37、rning. Breakfast eaters tend to eat less fat during the day， have more strength and endurance and better concentration and problem-solving ability. A good breakfast should provide up to 1/3 of your total calorie needs for the day. On the average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinne

38、r. If breakfast doesnt appeal to you in the morning, try eating a lighter-dinner, earlier in the evening or save half your dinner for breakfast in the morning. If you still arent hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a mid-morning snack later when you are hung

39、ry. Not eating breakfast can also cause you to overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slowed state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently. If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals t

40、hroughout the day, you are less likely to become extremely hungry and stuff yourself as soon as you begin to eat. Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right fuel is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat, and grain products such as b

41、reads, rice, noodles, and cereals. （分数：15.00）(1).The word fast“ in the phrase “break the fast“ in paragraph 2 means （分数：3.00）A.“a series of quick actions“.B.“a habit of eating“.C.“a period of not eating“.D.“a strict rule“.(2).Which of the following is NOT true of a person who does not have breakfast

42、? （分数：3.00）A.He will be easily distracted.B.He will tend to lose his temper.C.He will feel weak.D.He will become very talkative.(3).You can improve your appetite for breakfast by （分数：3.00）A.not eating too much for dinner in the eveningB.drinking a glass of milk before going to bed.C.eating a big din

43、ner in the evening.D.having some juice and a toast for dinner.(4).Which of the following is a healthy eating habit? （分数：3.00）A.Eating as little as possible.B.Eating no breakfast.C.Eating no lunch.D.Eating three regular meals a day.(5).Which food is NOT fit for breakfast? （分数：3.00）A.Rice.B.Fat meatC.

44、Bread.D.Juice.第三篇 Who Came First， the Chicken or the Egg？ I just mailed the chicken and the egg, each in its own separate packaging, and kept careful track of when each shipment was sent from a post office in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and when it later arrived at its intended destination in New York

45、 City. In mailing the chicken, I was careful to adhere to the restrictions described in the American Postal Services Domestic Mail Manual 57, as updated on April 3, 2003. This, the most recent, version of the Manual states that: “Adult chickens must be sent by Express Mail. The containers used must

46、pass the standards in International Safe Transit Association Test Procedure IA; be strong enough to endure normal handling; and ensure enough air for the chickens in transit. The number of birds must not be more than the containers limit.“ I mailed the chicken in a wooden box got from a colleague wh

47、o does research with birds. Then, I mailed the egg in standard packaging obtained through an industrial supplier. Its quite simple. I posted both the chicken and the egg at 9:40 am, on a Monday morning, from the Harvard Square post office, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The staff there told me that th

48、is was the first chicken anyone had mailed from there in recent memory, and perhaps ever. They handled both the chicken and the egg skillfully and politely. The intended destination for both packages was the James A. Farley General Post Office, which is located in Manhattan right next to the Penn St

49、ation train terminal. I took the subway from the Harvard Square to the Boston train station, and from there boarded a train to New York City, a distance of about 320 kilometers, arriving that afternoon at Penn Station. I immediately went to the post office, to await the arrivals of the chicken and the egg. The James A. Farley General Post Office is open 24 hours a day, so I was able to wait there until both items arrived. I inquired o
