All of us eat every day, but most of us don’t understand nutrition(营养). How much do you know about good nutrition? Are the following statements true or false?
1. People who don’t eat meat can stay healthy.
True. As long as people eat enough milk, eggs and meat alternates(替代物), they can get enough protein.
2. Fresh vegetables cooked at home are always more nutritious than canned vegetables.
False. The difference depends more on how vegetables are prepared than whether they are fresh or canned. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large quantity of vitamins.
3. Food eaten between meals can be just as good for health as food eaten at regular meals.
True. Nutritional value depends on what types of food you eat, not when you eat them. Eating an egg or an orange between meals can contribute to a good diet.
4. Taking extra vitamins beyond the recommended daily allowances won’t give you more energy.
True. It’s widely believed that extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the baby needs doesn’t make it function better, just as overfilling your gas tank doesn’t make your car run better.
5. Natural vitamins are better supplements(补充)for the diet than synthetic vitamins.
False. There is no difference. A vitamin has the same properties(性质)and specific chemical structure whether made in a laboratory or taken from plant or animal parts.
6. Older people need the same amount of vitamins as younger people.
True. Older people need the same quantity of vitamins as younger people although they need fewer calories. Certain illnesses raise the requirements for some vitamins, but that is true for the young as well as the old.
7. Food grown in poor soil is lower in vitamins than food grown in rich sold.
False. The vitamins in our foods are made by the plants themselves. They don’t come from the soil.
However, the minerals in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil.
If you have answered these questions correctly, you can say you know much about food and nutrition by today’s standards. But remember that nutrition is a growing science and that may be aged as new information is obtained.
1.The main purpose of the passage is to .
A. list today’s standards of some food and nutrition
B. introduce what should be eaten and what not

Most of us don't like to think too much about rubbish.1.. However, household waste is a major contributor to our planet's waste problem. Like it or not, it needs to be managed if we are to have a brighter green future.
When it comes to being responsible for our own rubbish, the best way to approach it is by following the three golden rules of waste management, or the'3 Rs'-Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
"The order is important.2.，" says Eugene Tay, Director of Green Future Solutions in Singapore. "Recycling still affects the environment and should be done last after reduce and reuse."
But, when our efforts to reduce and reuse still result in an overflowing rubbish bin, the advantages of recycling cannot be ignored. "3.," says Amy Ho, Managing Director of World Wide Fund For Nature in Singapore. "The damage to our environment could then be slowed down as a result. "
In fact, by recycling just one plastic bottle, you are saving not just the material to make a new one, but you also stop it from getting thrown into a landfill（垃圾掩埋场）for up to 700 years-and that's before it even starts to rot. 4..
Recycling is so important that we really have no excuse not to do the simplest of household tasks that will make a difference.
"5.，" says Ho. "Starting with recycling grey water for gardening purposes, to recycling materials such as glass, paper and iron-it all reduces the use of raw materials."
A. We put it in the bin and don't think too far beyond that
B. The collective action of individuals can make a significant effect
C. It's important for every household to make good use of grey water
D. Waste reduction and reuse is usually the best way to decrease waste
E. The three rules of waste management should be followed by every household
F. Recycling reduces the use of raw materials and so protects our natural resources
G. Recycling just 10% plastic bottles would keep 90 million kilograms of plastic out of landfills

The triathlon(铁人三项运动) promises to be one of the most popular Olympic sports. Recently it has drawn huge crowds attracted by athletes swimming 1,500m, cycling 40km, and then running 10km, without stopping. But what makes an attractive 17-year-old give up everything for the doubtful pleasures it offers?
Melanie Sears has not yet learnt those often-repeated phrases about personal satisfaction, mental challenge and higher targets that most athletes use when asked similar questions. “You swim for 1,500m, then run out of the water and jump on your bike, still wet. Of course, then you freeze. When the 40km cycle ride is over, you have to run 10km, which is a long way when you’re feeling exhausted. But it’s great fun, and all worth it in the end,” she says.
Melanie entered her first triathlon at 14 and she won the junior section. Full of confidence, she entered the National Championships, and although she had the second fastest swim and the fastest run, she came nowhere. “I was following this man and suddenly we came to the sea. We realized then that we had gone wrong. I ended up cycling 20 kilometers too far. I cried all the way through the running.”
But she didn’t give up. “Sometimes I wish I could stop, because then the pain would be over, but I am afraid that if I let myself stop just once, I would be tempted to do it again.” Such doggedness draws admiration from Steve Trew, the sport’s director of coaching.
Melanie was top junior in this year’s European Triathlon Championships, finishing 13th.“I was almost as good as the top three in swimming and running, but much slower in cycling. That’s why I’m working very hard at it.” She is trying to talk her long-suffering parents, who will carry the ￡1,300 cost of her trip to New Zealand for this year’s world championships, into buying a ￡2,000 bike, so she can try 25km and 100km races later this year.
But there is another price to pay. “I don’t have a social life,” she says. “After two hours’ hard swimming on Friday night, I just want to go to sleep. But I phone and write to the other girls in the team.” What does she talk about? Boys? Clothes? “No, what sort of times they are achieving.”
1.How does Melanie differ from other athletes, according to the writer?
A. She worries less than they do.
B. She expresses herself differently.
C. Her family background is not like theirs.
D. Her aims are different from theirs.
2.What upset Melanie during the National Championships?
A. She was tricked by another competitor.
B. She realized she couldn’t cycle as fast as she thought.
C. She felt she had let her team-mates down.
D. She made a mistake during part of the race.
3.What does the underlined word “doggedness” in Paragraph 4 means?
A. Melanie knows her own limits.
B. Melanie likes to please her coach.
C. Melanie feels less pain than most people.
D. Melanie continues regardless of difficulties.
4.What is Melanie trying to persuade her parents to do?
A. Buy an expensive bike for her.
B. Give her half the cost of a bike.
C. Pay for her to go to New Zealand.
D. Let her compete in longer races.
5.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Melanie’s Dull Social Life
B. Melanie’s Personal Achievements
C. The Pain and Suffering Caused by the Triathlon
D. The Triathlon’s Great Attraction
