I will never forget the year when I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be 1 Christmas gifts because there was not enough money in our family.

Just when I started to 3 that there would no Christmas that year, three women 4 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll.

Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I could try to make my 8 Christmas in the new house special and memorable, I 9 remembered the women's visit.

It seems that school children all over the world complain about their school food. Cherie Blair, the wife of previous Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school? Japan High schools have canteens (食堂), which serve everything from noodles to rice, but no hamburger and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles (泡菜) and vegetables. Students take home a menu for the coming month containing notes on nutrition (营养) value. Twice a year parents are invited to have a taste of the food. The class with the fewest leftovers (剩饭) at the end of the month receives a prize. Untied States A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily dietary allowances (定量) of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and calories. Australia Meat pies, sausage rolls and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children's health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus. Many schools have used a "traffic light system". The sale of red-labelled foods, including cakes, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Healthier green-labelled foods such as sushi (寿司), sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are available every day. In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice. South Africa Most of South Africa's schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 pm and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches. Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition. Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes. |
1. What does the underlined word "obesity" in the last paragraph probably mean? |
A. Nutrition B. Addiction C. Food shortage D. Overweight. |
2. We can infer from the passage that ______. |
A. a typical menu from a US school consists of enough nutrition. B. most of the students in South Africa eat their lunch at home. C. many schools in Australia have traffic lights outside their school. D. you can have whatever you like in school canteens in Japan. |
3. What is the main idea of the passage? |
A. Schools should try to satisfy the needs of students. B. Schools serve different foods from country to country. C. Schools should supply the students with the best food. D. School children all over the world dislike their school food. |
4. The article is written for ______. |
A. parents B. schoolmasters C. nutritionists D. students of your age |

Most shoplifters (商店扒手) agree that the January sales offer wonderful opportunities for the hard-working thieves. With the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help you to take one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as "hoisting". But now the hoisting game is not what it used to be. Even at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods. As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in court. Selfridges was the first big London store to install (安装) closed-circuit videotape equipment to watch its sales floors. In October, last year, the store won its first court case for shoplifting using an evidence - a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dresses. It was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipment. When the balls, called sputniks, first make an appearance in shops, it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shoplifters. Their somewhat ridiculous (古怪的) appearances, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, certainly make the theory believable. It did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respect. Soon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Brian Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume into her bag. "As she turned to go," Chadwick recalled, "she suddenly looked up at the sputnik and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained on (对准) her because it is completely hidden, but she must have had a feeling that someone was looking at her." "For a moment she paused, but then she returned to counter and started putting everything back. When she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store." |
1. January is a good month for shoplifters because ______. |
A. thieves have much previous experience then B. they don't need to wait for staff to serve them C. there are always so many people in the stores D. January sales offer them wonderful chances |
2. The sputniks hanging from the ceiling are intended ______. |
A. to watch the most desirable goods B. to make films that can be used as evidence C. to frighten shoplifters by their appearance D. to be used as evidence against shoplifters |
3. The case last October was important because ______. |
A. the evidence supplied was accepted by court B. the equipment could frighten shoplifters C. the other shops began to copy the method D. the store got all the stolen dresses back |
4. The woman stealing perfume ______. |
A. was frightened by the shape of the sputnik B. guessed the sputnik was aiming at her C. saw the detective sitting in the control room D. found the camera was busy filming her |
5. The woman's action before leaving the store shows that she ______. |
A. decided she didn't want anything stolen B. was sorry for what she had done C. would never do any stealing in this store D. was afraid she would be arrested |

On January 5th, students in our school visited Robot World, which we saw many robot. It was amazed to find those robots could do a great number of things just as real people do, included playing the piano, playing the chess, and drawing pictures. What's more, the robots were of different kinds and shapes, making us interested. That excited me most is the show given by a group of robots. They danced just as if they were skilled dancers in the stage. By visiting Robot World, I have learned a lot about robots, especially about their functions. The great wisdom of human is so powerful it will make our life difficult in the future. _______________________________________________________________________________ |
