25、texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 Health food is a general term applied to all . kinds of foods that are considered much healthful than the types of foods widely sold in supermarkets. For example, whole grains, dried beans and

26、corn oil are health foods. A narrower classification of health food is natural food. This term is used to distinguish between types of the same food. Raw honey is a natural sweetener, whereas refined sugar is not. Fresh fruit is a natural food, but canned fruit, with sugars and other additives, is n

27、ot. The most precise term of all and the narrowest classification within health foods is organic food, used to describe food that has been grown on a particular kind of farm. Fruits and vegetables that are grown in gardens that are treated only with organic fertilizers, that are not sprayed with poi

28、sonous insecticides, and that are not refined after harvest, are organic foods. Meats, fish, dairy and poultry products from animals that are fed only organically grown feed and that are not injected with hormones are organic foods. In choosing the type of food you eat, then, you have basically two

29、choices: inorganic, processed foods, or organic, unprocessed foods. A wise decision should include investigation of the allegations that processed foods contain chemicals, some of which are proven to be toxic, and that vitamin content is greatly reduced in processed foods. Bread is typically used by

30、 health food advocates as an example of a processed food. First, the seeds from which the grain is grown are treated with bichloride of mercury, an extremely toxic poison. Later, the grain is sprayed with a number of very toxic insecticides and pesticides. After the grain has been made into flour, i

31、t is bleached with nitrogen trichloride or chlorine dioxide, both toxic. Next, a dough conditioner, usually ammonium chloride, is added along with a softener, polyoxymethylene. The conditioner and softener ate poisons, and in fact, the softener has sickened and killed experimental animals. A very to

32、xic antioxidant is now added along with coal tar, a butter-like yellow dye. Finally calcium propionate, an anti-fungal compound, is added to keep the bread from getting moldy. Other foods from the supermarket would show a similar pattern of processing and preserving. You see, we buy our food on the

33、basis of smell, color, and texture, instead of vitamin content, and manufacturers give us what we want-even if it is poisonous. The alternative? Eat health foods, preferably the organic variety. 46 What was the main idea of this passage? （ A） Health foods. （ B） The processing of bread. （ C） Organic

34、gardens. （ D） Poisons. 47 Which term is used to distinguish between types of the same food? （ A） Refined foods. （ B） Natural foods. （ C） Organic foods. （ D） Unprocessed foods. 48 What did all of the additives in bread have in common? （ A） They are all used to keep the bread from getting moldy. （ B）

35、They are all poisons. （ C） They are all organic. （ D） They have all killed laboratory animals. 49 What happens to food when it is processed? （ A） The ultimate content remains the same. （ B） Vitamin information is not available after processing. （ C） Vitamins are added to the food. （ D） The vitamin c

36、ontent is reduced. 50 What does the term “organic food“ in Paragraph 2 mean? （ A） Food that is sold in supermarket. （ B） Food that is produced without artificial fertilizers. （ C） Food that is added with chemicals. （ D） Food that is processed. 50 The North American frontier changed some of the chara

37、cteristics of the pioneers of the 1750s and intensified others. They were, as a group, semiliterate, proud, and stubborn, as dogged in their insistence on their own way of life as pine roots cracking granite(花岗岩 ) to grow. Perhaps their greatest resource was their capacity to endure. They outlasted

38、recurrent(周期性发生的 )plagues of smallpox(天花 ) and malaria(痢疾 ) and a steady progression of natural accidents. They were incredibly prolific. Squire Boones family of eight children was small by frontier standards. James Roberston, an eventful neighbor of Boones and the frontier of Nashville, had eleven

39、children. Twice-married, John Sevier, the first governor of Tennessee, fathered eighteen; his long time enemy, John Tipton, also twice married, produced seventeen. The entire assets of one of these huge families often amounted, in the beginning, to little more than an axe, a hunting knife, an auger,

40、 a rifle, a horse or two, some cattle and a few pigs, a sack of seed com and another of salt, perhaps a crosscut saw, and a loom. Those who moved first into a new region lived for months at a time on wild meat, Indian maize, and native fruits in season. Yet if they were poor at the beginning, they c

41、onfidently expected that soon they would be rich. In a way almost impossible to define to urban dwellers, a slice of ground suitable for farming represented not just dollars and cents, but dignity. The obsession brought shiploads of yearners (渴求者 ) every week to Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Balti

42、more, Charles Town and Savannah. It sent them streaming westward into the wilderness after their predecessors to raise still more children who wanted still more land. 51 What kind of stylistic device did the author use in the phrase “as pine roots cracking granite to grow“? （ A） Metaphor. （ B） Simil

43、e. （ C） Personification. （ D） Imagination. 52 Which of the following generalizations about pioneers is NOT supported by the passage? （ A） They showed great endurance. （ B） They spent a great deal of money. （ C） They wanted their own land. （ D） They traveled with few possessions. 53 Upon arrival, the

44、 pioneers who settled a new area of the frontier would eat which of the following? （ A） Com, cattle and pigs. （ B） Indian maize, native fruits and wild meat. （ C） Preserved fruits, dried meats and pine roots. （ D） Fresh food and native vegetables. 54 It can be inferred from the passage that pioneers

45、 differed from city dwellers in that they _. （ A） thought farming would be easy （ B） were involved in local government （ C） associated land with dignity （ D） wanted to get rich quickly 55 What does “them“ refer to in the sentence “It sent them streaming westward into the wilderness after their prede

46、cessors to raise still more children who wanted still more land“? （ A） Urban dwellers. （ B） Dollars and cents. （ C） Yearners. （ D） Predecessors. 55 Around the world young people are spending unbelievable sums of money to listen to rock music. Forbes Magazine claims that at least fifty rock stars hav

47、e incomes of between two million and six million dollars per year. “It doesnt make sense, “ says Johnny Mathis, one of the older music millionaires, who made a million dollars a year when he was most popular, in the 1950s. “Performers arent worth this kind of money. In fact, nobody is. “ But the roc

48、k stars admirers seem to disagree. Those who love rock music spend about two billion dollars a year for records. They pay 150 million to see rock stars in person. Some observers think the customers are buying more than music. According to one theory, rock music has a special appeal because no real t

49、raining is needed to produce it. There is no gulf between the audience and the performer. Every boy and girl in the audience thinks, “I could sing like that. “ So rock has become a new kind of religion, a new form of worship. Young people are glad to pay to worship a rock star because it is a way of worshipping themselves. Luck is a key word for explaining the success of many. In 1972, one of the luckiest was Don McLean, who wrote and sang “American Pie“
