The message what the "Eat up All on Your Plate" campaign tries to convey is not new. Our ancestors had poems about the importance of frugality (节俭) in the consumption of food. But it makes a lot of sense when many are yet to have the awareness that food waste borders on a crime.

The campaign has been started online and thousands of people have answered the call. Many restaurants have joined the program by announcing that customers are encouraged to order half a dish and take home what they can't finish.

However, it is estimated (估计) that 50 million tons of grain are wasted every year in China, enough to feed 200 million people for a year.

True, official banquets (宴席) paid with public money contribute much to such waste. But it is important that everyone thinks about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste. We need to develop the habit of never ordering or cooking more than we can eat and feeling guilty when we dump our leftovers.

Many people have a bad habit of entertaining guests with more than enough food, believing that they have not satisfied their guests' appetites if there is no food left on the table. In fact, to be a good host they order more than their guests can possibly eat and their guests eat more than they want out of politeness.

Such a mentality needs to change. People need to be made aware that it is impolite to force guests to eat more than they are comfortable with and it is insensible and uncivilized to waste food. Even if one is wealthy, ordering more than one can eat is a bad way to show off one's wealth.

1. The writer thinks the campaign "Eat up All on Your Plate" makes sense because______.

A. some people have some bad eating habits

B. some officials are wasting a lot of food

C. wasting food is still rather common in China

D. saving food is a traditional virtue of China

2.The writer shows how serious the problem of food waste is by_____.

A. Using examples

B. Offering figures

C. Comparing

D. Analyzing people’s attitude

【小题3The problem of food waste can be handled only when_______.

A. officials are forbidden to eat out with public money

B. more similar campaigns like this one have been started

C. restaurants don’t serve all the food people have ordered

D. everyone takes action to fight against food waste

Much like a smartphone, your body will go to sleep when there are no new inputs. When you are on a bus, your senses will give you the same repetitive inputs. The streets will flow by, the engine adds constant white noise, you’re seated and not moving, and the smell... well you hope the smell doesn’t change.

Any repetitive input going to your brain will eventually be ignored and your brain will start going into a low energy state. The fact that you fall asleep quickly when closing your eyes on a bus is because you were already on the bus for a while and got used to all the repetitive sensory data.

When you go to bed, you have a lot of new changes. You are lying down, you wear different clothes, you feel the pressure of your covers, you go from bright to dark, noisy to quiet. All of these are new sensory inputs that your brain needs to get used to before going to sleep.

A laboratory experiment to investigate the effects of whole-body vibration (震动) on seated human alertness and sleepiness was carried out. Vibration was applied to the volunteers sitting on the vehicle seat on the vibration platform. Volunteers for this investigation included 18 young male and healthy university students. None of the volunteers had a history of neck pain, diseases of the cervical spine or musculoskeletal disorders. Seated volunteers were exposed to a Gaussian random vibration, with 1–15 Hz frequency bandwidth at 0.2 ms−2 r.m.s., for 20-minutes.

The results suggest that exposure to vibration even for 20-minutes can cause significant sleepiness. The data clearly show that exposure to vibration has considerable influence on subjective sleepiness levels, and more importantly, human reaction times and decrease of attention.

Drowsy driving has been reported to account for approximately 20% of accidents worldwide. In Australia, 16.6% of total road deaths were caused by sleep-related accidents in 1998 alone. It is well established that sleepiness caused by extended hours of driving has considerable influence on driver performance, therefore, compromising transportation safety.

These findings need to be further proved particularly in relation to driving behavior. This line of research can then assist in the development of practical and relevant guidelines for limitation of vibration exposure in the automotive industry, in an effort to reduce the burden of road accidents. That’s something for both car manufacturers and road safety experts to think about.

1.According to the passage, why do we fall asleep quickly on the bus?

A.Because we meet a lot of new changes.

B.Because the surroundings become quiet.

C.Because we get used to the repetitive sensory data.

D.Because our senses give us different kinds of inputs.

2.What is the purpose of the experiment?

A.To investigate people’s sleeping hours and situation.

B.To research whether vibration can affect people’s health.

C.To study the relationship between inputs and people’s attention.

D.To find out how shaking affects people’s sleepiness in the vehicle.

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.Sleepy driving is the main cause of road accidents.

B.The research has helped to reduce the burden of road accidents.

C.The findings of the experiment have been recognized by road safety experts.

D.The research results can give some implications to the automobile production.

4.What is the author’s attitude towards the findings?

A.Positive. B.Negative.

C.Disappointed. D.Indifferent.

On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school. ”I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.

On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be？ I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it！The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.

Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out.

With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad.  It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.

Since then, I've been elected vice president of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.

Most important of all, be who you are , whether you're a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.

“I like your smile, but unlike you put your shoes on my face”. A charming way of saying “Keep off the grass”. But could you figure it out? Or this: “Wash Clothing Store” for laundry.

They are both typical Chinglish, a combination of English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. Expressions such as “people mountain people sea”, means extremely crowded, and “give you some color to see”, meaning a punishment, are widely known and recognized.

Chinglish has been attracting global attention in recent years as China grows rapidly in status on the world stage, attracting both fans and detractors(批评者).

The Beijing Speaks Foreign Languages Programme and English First China Company, a language trainer known as EF Education, jointly launched a campaign to root out poor grammar and misused vocabulary in downtown Beijing. They argue Chinglish is an embarrassment that we should let it die out at all costs.

“It is meaningful to allow the capital to show its most beautiful historical and cultural heritage to the world." Michael Lu, vice-president of EF Education said, “since the launching of the campaign, foreign teachers and students had been very keen to volunteer participation.”He believed signs were very important in public services. "The signs in some old buildings confused foreign visitors.

Chinglish, although the target of much criticism, has also won supporters who regard it as an interesting way for foreigners to learn how Chinese people think and express themselves.

“Many Chinglish logos carry Chinese elements and they will enrich the English language,” 32-year-old Oliver Radtke said. He had even published a book “Chinglish: Found in Translation,” on the subject. About 50,000 copies of the book have been sold since it was published in 2007.

Some Chinese university experts also side with Chinglish. "English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth, and the emergence of Chinglish again testifies(说明) to the language’s vitality and inclusiveness," said Shi Anbin, an associate professor of Tsinghua University.

1.How did Chinglish come into being?

A. Chinese people misunderstood the meaning of the new words.

B. Chinese people combined English vocabulary with Chinese grammar.

C. Chinese people based their English on the native English speakers.

D. Chinese people make wide use of English vocabulary with bad spelling.

2.What Shi Anbin said means ________.

A. there are many French and Spanish words in English

B. English is the language with vitality and inclusiveness

C. Chinglish enriches English and shouldn’t be got rid of

D. Chinglish has greater effect on English than French and Spanish

3.According to Oliver Radtke, Chinglish ________.

A. shows how Chinese people think

B. does damage to the English language

C. shows the great humor of Chinese people

D. should be sold to all over the world
