阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Many people aren’t aware of the famous vegan(素食者) celebrities in 2017 but more people are exposed to the information surrounding veganism. Here are 4 of them.
Singer Ellie Goulding discussed her love of green smoothies and identified herself as a true vegan in Shape magazine.
“I call myself a true vegan. It’s challenging, but not impossible. I make green juice for myself almost every day. I put in things like bananas, broccoli—whatever’s in my fridge, really. Sweet-potato fries and salad is my absolute favorite. It’s the perfect meal. I eat a lot of nuts too, but I also love eating chips. It’s actually easy to be a vegan because a lot of junk foods are vegetarian!”
Liam Hemsworth made headlines when he sang the praises of his new vegan diet. In an interview for men’s Fitness magazine he declared. “I feel nothing but positive, mentally and physically. I love it.”
“My own health, and after all the information I gathered about the mistreatment of animals, I couldn’t continue to eat meat. The more I was aware of, the harder and harder it was to do,” the 27-year-old Hunger Games star replied when asked what made him decide to change his eating habit.
Miley is for animal rights, but with over 40 million Instagram followers, she’s getting the message out there loud and clear! Inspired by the loss of her blowfish, pop star Miley Cyrus went vegan and talked about it on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
“The reason that I started this was that I had a fish that was highly intelligent. He really knew who I was; he really got excited when I was home. One day I went to a sushi(寿司) restaurant with my friends and they were serving blowfish. And I thought, this is an intelligent animal.”
Looks like more and more young superstars like Ariana Grande are spreading the message of conscious eating far and wide to their legions of fans. Ariana was shocked to go vegan after seeing the influential documentary Forks over Knives.
“I love animals more than I love most people, not kidding. But I am a firm believer in eating a full plant-based, whole food diet that can expand your life length and make you an all-around happier person. It is tricky dining out, but I just stick to what I know—veggies, fruit and salad—then when I get home I’ll have something else.”
21. Who thinks junk food can contribute to a vegetarian?
A. Ellie Goulding. B. Liam Hemsworth.
C. Miley. D. Ariana Grande.
22. Which of the following statements about these vegetarians is true?
A. Liam Hemsworth used to keep a very clever pet.
B. Ellie Goulding is devoted to the fight for animals.
C. Ariana Grande thinks veganism can make life long.
D. Miley was influenced greatly by Forks over Knives.
23. Which section of the magazine can you find the passage?
A. Education. B. Fashion.
C. Environment. D. Lifestyle.
B
Two monks of a great master were walking in the garden of the master’s house. They were asked to walk every day, from dawn to dusk. The walking was a kind of meditation(冥想). They cannot sit in the day—the legs need a little movement and the blood needs a little circulation.
They both wanted to ask for the permission of the master to sit down, so they both decided, “Tomorrow. At the most, he will say no, but we are going to ask. And it doesn’t seem such an impolite act to sit in the garden.”
The next day they met in the garden. One was furious—because the other was sitting—and he said, “What happened? I also asked, but he simply flatly refused and said no. And you are sitting! Are you not going against his orders?”
The other one said, “But he has said yes to me.”
“This looked very unjust,” the first said, “I will go and immediately inquire why he said no to me and yes to you.”
The other one said, “Wait a minute. Please tell me what you had asked.” The first said, “What I had asked? I had asked a simple thing. ‘Can I sit while meditating?’ He said, ‘No!’ and he looked very angry.”
The other started laughing and said, “Now I know what is the matter. I asked, ‘Can I meditate while sitting?’ He said, ‘Yes.’”
It all depends. Just a little difference and life is totally something else. Asking “Can I sit while meditating?” is just ugly. But asking “Can I meditate while sitting?” is perfectly okay. Good! At least you will be meditating.
Life is an empty canvas(油画布), and one has to be very artistic about it.
24. Why did the master ask the two monks to walk every day?
A. Because sitting doesn’t seem a polite deed.
B. Because walking can do good to their health.
C. Because he wanted to give them punishment.
D. Because walking is the only way to meditate.
25. What kind of person is the second monk?
A. Wise-minded. B. Easy-going. C. Hot-headed. D. Warm-hearted.
26. How did the master probably react when the second monk asked him the question?
A. He was disappointed with it. B. He sang high praise for it.
C. He nodded to him peacefully. D. He drove him away furiously.
27. What can we learn from the story?
A. Two heads are better than one.
B. It is easy to be wise after the event.
C. Every man is the architect of his own fortune.
D. It’s not what you say but how you say it that matters.
C
British children’s writer Roald Dahl ate chocolates and sweets “pretty much every mealtime”, remembers daughter Ophelia Dahl.
After dinner, whether dining alone or entertaining guests, Dahl would pass around a little red plastic box full of Mars Bars, Milky Ways, Maltesers, Kit Kats and much more.
He knew the history of all the sweets and could tell you exactly when they were invented. 1937 was a big year when Kit Kats (his favorite), Rolos, and Smarties (his dog, chopper’s favorite) were invented. He wrote a history of chocolate, lecturing schoolchildren to commit such dates to memory, such as 1928 when “Cadbury’s Fruit and Nut Bar popped up on the scene”, saying. “Don’t bother with the Kings and Queens of England. All of you should learn these dates instead. Perhaps the Headmistress will see from now on that it becomes part of the major teaching in this school.”
According to Dahl, the Golden Years of Chocolate were 1930-1937. In 1930, Roald Dahl was 14 years old. He was a student at Repton, a famous boys’ boarding school in England. It was a tough environment: Those in authority were more interested in controlling than educating the students.
Ironically, it was at this difficult period that chocolate became Dahl’s passion. Near Repton was a Cadbury chocolate factory. Every so often, Cadbury would send each schoolboy a sampler box of new chocolates to taste and grade. They were using the students—“the greatest chocolate bar experts in the world” to test out their new inventions.
This was when Dahl’s imagination took flight. He pictured factories with inventing rooms with pots of chocolate and fudge(软糖) and “all sorts of other delicious fillings bubbling away on the stoves”.
“It was lovely dreaming those dreams… when I was looking for a plot for my second book for children, I remembered those little cardboard boxes and the newly-invented chocolates inside them, and I began to write a book called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.”
For the record, Roald Dahl did not like chocolate cake or chocolate ice cream. He said, “I prefer my chocolate straight.”
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the main topic—Roald Dahl.
B. To introduce Dahl’s love for chocolates.
C. To introduce main character’s daily life.
D. To introduce some important characters.
29. What can we infer from the passage about Roald Dahl?
A. He treated himself with various chocolates after dinner secretly.
B. He has a good knowledge of chocolate, especially its history.
C. He used to lecture schoolchildren of a boys’ boarding school.
D. He only wrote some books related to the history of chocolate.
30. What happened during the Golden Years of Chocolate?
A. It was a great time for children to get educated.
B. Those years stopped Dahl’s interest in chocolate.
C. Students could become chocolate experts then.
D. Roald Dahl’s passion for chocolate was lit up then.
31. __________ gave Roald Dahl inspiration to write Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
A. The dreams about chocolates B. Factories with chocolate and fudge
C. Those boxes with chocolates D. Chocolate cakes and ice cream
D
Congratulations, March, April and May babies, you score high on the hyperthymia
scale—which is actually good. Hyperthymia is general optimism—the ability to see every down as a beginning to an up, every market crash as a run-up to a boom. But that comes at a price: spring babies are also easier to be affected by the opposite of hyperthymia: clinical depression. Ground zero for the condition—according to a massive study of 58,000 subjects in the U.K. in 2012—is among people born in May. November babies have the lowest depression rates.
It’s mostly glad news for June, July and August babies. No SAD(Abbreviation for seasonal affective disorder: a medical condition in which a person does not have much energy and enthusiasm during the winter because of the reduced period of natural light. ) for you—at least nothing caused by the light levels after your birth, though there may be some impact from mom having carried you in December, January and February. Summer babies have some of the same hyperthymic characteristics as spring babies, but that can be offset by cyclothymia(躁郁情绪)—rapid cycling between high and low moods. Still, that’s probably not a warning sign of bipolar disorder; bipolar diagnoses are lowest among babies born in August.
For people who believe in astrology(占星术), the general calmness of fall babies seems to provide evidence that at least the sign of Libra—the well-balanced scales—has connection with it. It doesn’t of course, but whether the cause is the abundant nutrients available at harvest time, or the fact that the long nights and seasonal illness of winter have not yet appeared, people born in fall not only enjoy low levels of depression, but are similarly less likely to develop bipolar disorder. The one glitch in the autumn-born: they do have a tendency to irritability.
Buckle up, winter babies, things could get rough. Among the challenges facing people with winter birthdates are higher levels of schizophrenia(精神分裂症), bipolar disorder, SAD and depression. That’s terrible, but there is something to make up for that: winter babies are less irritable than those born in fall. What’s more, according to a small 2015 study of 300 celebrities, January and February are the right months to be born if you want to be famous since those months correlate with creativity and imaginative problem-solving.
32. Which statement is true according to the article?
A. Spring babies are always very happy.
B. Fewer August babies get bipolar disorder.
C. Fall babies have the highest depression rates.
D. Winter babies are the most fortunate.
33. The phrase “Buckle up” in the last paragraph can be replaced by ________.
A. Attention B. Don’t worry
C. Congratulations D. Don’t give up
34. In which month you should give birth to your baby if you hope he or she is creative?
A. January. B. May.
C. August. D. November.
35. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?
A. Which is the best birth month?
B. Diseases you should pay attention to
C. Give birth to your baby in a proper month
D. Different birth months, different characters

Six Things You Should Never Do Before the Queen
* Don’t show up empty handed
What do you get the woman who already has everything? Sure, the Queen has several homes full of priceless trinkets, but bringing a gift is necessary. 36 . So if she’s paying a visit to your hometown or country, something which reflects local culture might go down better than W.H. smith’s vouchers(优惠券).
* 37
You may be dead on your painful feet—but you should always stand when the Queen enters the room. You may only sit once she has taken the seat, so keep a close eye on when the Queen sits down herself.
*Don’t ignore the dress code
Regardless of how late you’re running or how tempting it is to stay in your casual clothes, make sure you dress accordingly when meeting HRH. 38 .
*Resist the temptation to refer to her by her first name
While the Royal family may be extremely familiar to us, and while we may have our own nicknames for them, we common folk still aren’t on a first name basis with them. So, when you first meet the Queen she should be addressed as “Your Majesty” and “Ma'am” consequently after. When she leaves, however, you must address her as “Your Majesty” once again.
*Only speak if the Queen speaks to you
Remember when you were a small child and all your elders would drop wisdom such as “don’t speak unless spoken to first” and “children should be seen and not heard”? 39 .
This rule exists so Her Royal Highness can control every aspect of the conversation—including exiting it swiftly.
*Don’t eat before she does
No matter how tasty and tempting the banquet morsels spread in front you look, you can only start eating once the Queen does. So perhaps have a quick snack beforehand, in case any speeches go on for a long time. 40 .
A. Stand to attention
B. Watch out for the Queen
C. Oh, and if she has finished eating, you’d better be full too
D. If the event is black tie, wear black tie
E. You are supposed to listen to them though you’ve grown up
F. This gift must also be appropriate to the occasion
G. The same applies to meeting the Queen

Dear sir or madam,
I’m writing to apply to be a member of the Chinese & American Culture Camp.
As a Chinese, I’m good at many skills related with our traditional culture. But among them, Taichi is my favorite because it does much good to my health. I’m sure American friends will be also crazy about it after they touch it. And as you know, Chinese cooking is popular all over the world. It happens that I’m expert at it, and I’m glad to present some traditional Chinese dishes to everybody.
So please consider my application seriously, for I’m eager to have the chance to share the wonderful time with you. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
