Can you imagine that several hundred years ago, tomatoes were seen as toxic food in Europe?
What made Europeans believe this was John Gerard’s publication of Herbal in 1597. Gerard wrote: “The leaves and stalks of the tomato plant are toxic.” Undoubtedly, Gerard’s opinion was based on a misunderstanding of tomatoes. But his opinion was widely spread in Britain and North America for over two hundred years.
In the late 1700s, a lot of Europeans held more fears for tomatoes. A nick name for the fruit was “poison apple” because it was believed that aristocrats(贵族) got sick and died after eating them. But the actual reason was the pewter plates they used. Since tomatoes are high in acidity, when placed on the plates, the lead(铅) in the plates would dissolve(溶解). This caused many deaths. Unluckily, no one knew this at that time. So the innocent tomatoes were picked as the killer.
Today, more than one and a half billion tons of tomatoes are produced every year around the world. Tomatoes are cooked in various ways. This healthy and tasty food finally wins its innocence(清白) back.
1.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?
A. Europeans’ fears for tomatoes

C. Why do people eat so many tomatoes
D. How did the tomato prove its value
2.What does the underlined word “toxic” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. delicious B. nutritious(有营养的)
C. poisonous D. safe
3.When did people begin to eat tomatoes according to the text?
A. About 100 years ago. B. About 200 years ago.
C. About 300 years ago. D. About 400 years ago.
4.What’s the key point for the death of the aristocrats mentioned in the passage?

Jane Goodall is best known for her 26-year study of the chimps in the wild. There, she made several revolutionary discoveries that made her one of the greatest field scientists of the 20th century.
Born in London in 1934, the expectations for Jane were standard for the time: a marriage to a nice man, followed by a few children. Fortunately, her mother never discouraged (劝阻, 使气馁) her interests: animals and the natural world. Once her mother discovered that little Jane had brought a handful of worms (幼虫) to bed; rather than screaming, she explained that her new little friends needed the soil to live, and together, they took them back to the garden.
Jane was a bookworm who admired Doctor Dolittle and loved the Tarzan novels. Reading did its usual quiet but life-changing thing: Jane developed a dream to go to Africa and live among the wild animals.
Jane realized her dream on July 14, 1960 when she arrived at Gombe Stream Game Reserve to study the chimps. However, for two months, the chimps escaped when they heard her coming. The only thing she saw was the back of a chimp,running away from her.
“The more I thought of the task I had set myself, the more discouraged I became,” Jane wrote in her first book, In the Shadow of Man.
Eventually, she became familiar with a male chimp and his big family. She observed them kiss, hug, pat each other on the back, shake their fingers at each other. She watched them act very human-like.
One day, moving quietly through the jungle, Jane saw the male chimp sit beside a large termite mound (白蚁土堆). He kept taking small braches from trees and putting them in the holes to fish the ants.
In any case, Jane’s discovery became the talk of the scientific world. Harvard’s Stephen Jay Gould observed, “We must now re-think what the words ‘tool’ (工具) and ‘man’ mean or accept chimps as humans.”
1.What did Jane’s mother do when she found the worms on the bed?
A. She studied them carefully. B. She shouted at her daughter.
C. She threw them into the garden. D. She explained they liked the soil.
2.Which is the major reason that made Jane dream to work in the wild?
A. Doctor Dolittle’s invitation. B. Her interest in chimps.
C. The reading in her childhood. D. Her mother’s encouragement.
3.How did Jane feel during the first two months in Africa?
A. Lonely. B. Frightened.
C. Hopeless. D. Content.
4.What did Stephen Jay Gould’s words imply?
A. Chimps should be accepted as humans.
B. Jane’s discovery is of great importance.
C. Only human beings know how to make use of tools.
D. The scientists should confirm the meaning of the words.
