As globalization continues to make the world a smaller place, and goods become more accessible across borders,concerns about food safety in the Asia­Pacific region have steadily risen over the years. An APEC forum is being held in Beijing, to find ways to better address the problem.

156 participants from 19 APEC economies and 4 non-APEC members attended the APEC Food Safety Cooperation Forum. Created 7 years ago, the forum has been actively looking for ways to strengthen food safety standard in the region, without affecting trade.

“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food, the potential food safety risk also becomes bigger. This forum has helped APEC economies to cooperate in supervision (监督), exchange information, and improve the overall food safety standard in the Asia­Pacific region,” said director of China's General Administration of Quality Supervision Wu Qinghai.

For the first time the forum has brought together high­level regulators, academics, and industry stakeholders to talk about their respective roles in safety supervision. They say governments alone cannot shoulder this heavy duty.

In China, the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers' confidence in domestic products; therefore more turned to imports. However, problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show. In July this year, more than 400 batches (批)of food imports from 35 countries and regions were found substandard by the country's top quality supervisor.

Governments and industries have been brought closer by this forum. As food moves more freely beyond borders, this forum is hoped to promote safety control cooperation, so APEC　 members can better benefit from the economic integration (经济一体化).

1.What kind of function can the forum play?

A.It has greatly influenced the economy in the area.

B.It has long been able to put every side's efforts together.

C.It helps to bring government regulators and industries together.

D.It has found ways to deal with safety problems.

2.The last but one paragraph tells us that ________.

A.the Chinese customers are more satisfied with their food safety

B.food imported from other countries are indeed high in quality

C.many Chinese customers would rather buy some foreign food

D.there are only 35 countries and regions exporting food to China

3.The underlined word “address” in the first paragraph can be replaced by “________”.

A.send a letter about B.deal with

C.deliver a speech on D.call off

4.According to the article, which of the following statements is WRONG?

A.People can buy foreign food more easily than ever.

B.The more varieties of food, the bigger the potential food safety risk.

C.Food safety problems have appeared many times before this forum.

D.Governments have started their cooperation with academies and industries before this forum.

“Mr. Mandela has spent 67 years making the world a better place. We’re asking you for 67 minutes”.

高一英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

Can you become a creative person? Can you learn to come up with great ideas or learn to create new things? The answer is yes.

The first step to becoming creative is to remove the words “I am not creative” from your vocabulary. Seriously, do not say them or do not say them even inside your head.

Now you need to start looking what other people are doing. The more you see what they are doing, the more you can get a feel for how they think, and how they come up with creative ideas.

Find a way or a place where you feel totally relaxed. This is important so you can let your mind come up with ideas. Write them down as you get them. For me a relaxing place is outside in nature where it is quiet and sunny, or when I take a long drive in my car by myself.

The last step is to write down a few ideas every day.

Repeat the process of reading and observing what similar people are doing and how they are being creative, finding a relaxing place to write down your thoughts, and writing down a few ideas every day until you start seeing this kind of results you are happy with. It may take a few weeks to a few months, but this is the training process you need to put your mind through to become creative.

Remember, looking at things from different angle(角度) can also make a big difference to creativity. Question the way that everyone else is doing something using the same method and see if being different and doing it another way will produce something cool.

1.The first step to be creative is to _____.

A．have confidence in yourself

B．look up “creativity” in the dictionary

C．understand the meaning of being creative

D．learn many new words by heart

2.The writer develops the fourth paragraph by ______.

A．the order of time                       B．the order of space

C．giving examples                         D．explaining reasons

3.It can be inferred that ______.

A．creativity is a gift people are born with

B．not everyone can be creative

C．it is a piece of cake to be creative

D．creativity can be gained through practice

4.The purpose of writing this text is to tell us how to _____.

A．learn to be creative

B．solve problems easily

C．come up with good ideas

D．improve the ability of thinking
