As a cook, you have to work from Sunday to Friday.                               B       In a university cafeteria(自助餐厅), women are found to spend more time than men deciding what they will have for lunch. They tend to choose their familiar food, while men are more likely to try new products.       Cameras are watching them. From inside a control room, researchers take notes of their movements, hesitations(犹豫), facial expressions, weights and even eating habits.       The study is being run by scientists atWageningenUniversityandResearchCenter. With the cameras and other machines, the researchers hope to reduce eating to a science. The cafeteria serves about 200 diners a day, and about 480 people have agreed to take part in the study and be monitored. Ordinary visitors are not studied.       Hidden cameras can catch faces or plates, or pull back to view a whole table, or a broad section of the cafeteria. They record not only what food the customers select, but the food they almost select, and how long they pause before deciding. Facial recognition software records their levels of enjoyment, and in the control room the scientists watch the action on screens. They are studying what influences eating, how products can be made more appealing, and how to direct customers to healthier food choices.       “ This is a laboratory. We control all the conditions, ” one of the scientists told us. “ but we still call it a cafeteria, ” he added, “ since using the word ‘laboratory’might influence their behavior.” 59. According to the passage, the cameras watch all the following EXCEPT __________.     A. clothes                   B. weights    C. facial expressions        D. ordering speed 60. The underlined word “ appealing ” in the Paragraph 4 probably means __________. A. unpleasant B. attractive  C. interesting D. delicious 61. From the passage we learn that __________.     A. the study would be more successful if the cafeteria were called a lab     B. anyone eating in the cafeteria is part of the study     C. the researchers want to sell their products     D. the study aims to create a science of eating 62. The purpose of Paragraph 1 is to __________.     A. explain why women have different eating habits from men     B. prove that women need more time to make decisions than men     C. attract readers’ attention and introduce the study     D．introduce readers to the university                                C I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?” Foreign tourists are often confused  in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks  in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.” People inLos Angeles,California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?”  They don’t know. It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost inYucatan! 63. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______. A. describe the place carefully               B. show him a map of the place C. tell him the names of the streets         D. refer to recognizable buildings and places 64. People inYucatanmay give a tourist a wrong answer ______.      A. in order to save time                 B. as a test.      C. so as to be polite                      D. for fun 65. What can we infer from the text?      A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.      B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.      C. People have similar understandings of politeness.      D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.                               D           Disposable chopsticks can be seen in almost every restaurant in China.They have become popular because they are convenient and clean, and their increasing numbers are a sign of the success of the open economy. People make more money, so they eat out more often in restaurant. The problem is that disposable chopsticks are not good for the environment.           The Chinese are said to use 45 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks every year, killing about 25 million full-grown trees. “ If the average person uses two pairs of wooden chopsticks a day, it means a great many trees will be cut down. ” says Yang Dabin, a spokesman for Friends of Nature. Besides deforestation (滥伐森林), a third of China is threatened by acid rain, and about 70 percent of the country’s rivers and lakes are polluted. The country’s environment is getting worse and worse.          China is the world’s largest maker of disposable chopsticks, having sold nearly 165,000 tons of them since the year 2000, with 15 billion pairs finding their way to dinner tables in Japan and South Korea. Environmentalists say that if we continue to cut down trees at such a rate, we’ll have none left in about ten years.          The government now is trying to persuade people to use plastic chopsticks instead of the disposable ones. “ We can’t make people exchange their wooden furniture for steel, or read electronic newspapers. But we can make them pay for using disposable chopsticks, or encourage the use of chopsticks made of other materials,”says Yang. Many people now understand the bad influence of using disposable chopsticks, and it is good to see that over the past few years, thousands of restaurants have started washing and reusing chopsticks. 66. Which of the following is a reason for the increasing use of disposable chopsticks?     A. Disposable chopsticks are cheap.     B. People like eating in restaurants.     C. Disposable chopsticks are clean.     D. People want to save money. 67. Which of the following is NOT a result of using disposable chopsticks?     A. Many trees are cut down.     B. Acid rain is caused.     C. Many areas are polluted.     D. Many people become rich. 68. What can the government do to stop people using disposable chopsticks?     A. Ask them exchange their wood furniture.     B. Make them pay for disposable chopsticks.     C. Stop people from using them.     D. Let them read electronic newspapers. 69. How does the author feel about the influence of using disposable chopsticks?     A. Embarrassed. B. Worried.   C. Happy.      D. Surprised. 70. We can infer from the passage that __________.     A. people have more money now, so they prefer disposable chopsticks.     B. there will be no trees inChinain about ten years.     C. chopsticks made of other materials are good to the environment     D. many restaurants no longer provide disposable chopsticks                                          第 II卷（非选择题 共35分） 第一部分、单词拼写 （共10小题；每小题1分， 满分10分）        根据题中所给的汉语或首字母写出符合句意的单词的正确形式。 71.

They tend to feel sleepy all day and have bad memories, so it is hard for them to get high marks in all kinds of tests.       Some students who study late into the night choose to miss breakfast so that they can have a fewe extra minutes in bed. Others are given money to buy their breakfast on the way to school because their parents are too busy to prepare for it for them. Besides, a few schoolgirls want to stay slim and often go to school without breakfast.       In fact, the morning meal plays an important part. It can provide 30 percent of the whold day’s energy. For a creative mind and better judgement, school kids should start their day with a regular breakfast.
