A
Sweet potato makes a comeback as a popular food (it's healthier, too！)
Once considered a fringe(非主流的) food by the US. dinner table mainstream，sweet potatoes are fast becoming popular everywhere from fast food chains to expensive restaurants and the White House table.
Three years ago, the “Wall Street Journal” wrote in a front page article that except for their use in a Thanksgiving dish, sweet potatoes were a wholly uninteresting food. Yet over the past two years, the number of restaurants offering a sweet potatobased side dish has increased 40 percent.
Food giant ConAgra just spent $155 million to open the world's first plant devoted entirely to frozen sweet potato products, and US. farmers are planning to harvest a recordsetting 2 billion pound crop.
“It's not something we believe is a fashion, ” said Andy Johnston of ConAgra Foods Lamb Weston.
According to research conducted by ConAgra, 30 percent of sweet potato eaters report consuming the vegetable several times per month. Only 12 percent eat them only during the Thanksgiving and winter holiday season.
Analysts believe the sweet potato's growing popularity in large part is due to sweet potato fries, which account for the majority of the vegetable's presence in U.S. restaurants. In fact, Google searches for “sweet potato fries” increased 40 percent over the past year.
Sweet potatoes have also become popular among more conscious eaters，however, in part because they are high in vitamins and have a low glycemic(血糖的)index in spite of their sweetness. Both Weight Watchers and the South Beach Diet have recommended sweet potatoes, roasted in a little oil rather than fried, and doctors are recommending them for diabetics.
“Within the diabetic community, it's become pretty common knowledge that sweet potatoes are good for you, so there's a great appeal because so many people have diabetes now，” said Chef Michel Nischan，who helps host a TV show for people with diabetes.
56．This passage mainly wants to tell us that ________.
A．American high officials have started to eat sweet potatoes
B．Expensive restaurants have begun to serve costumers with sweet potatoes
C．Sweet potatoes are becoming a popular food in the United States
D．The habit of eating sweet potatoes was formed a long time ago
57．From this reading passage we infer that ConAgra ________.
A．is one of the biggest foodmaking companies in the US
B．is one of the richest foodselling companies in the US
C．has asked American farmers to produce more sweet potatoes this year
D．has produced large quantities of sweet potatobased side dishes
58．Which of the following may NOT encourage the sweet potato's popularity?
A．US restaurants recommend sweet potatoes to their customers as a vegetable.
B．Google searches show more and more people are becoming interested in sweet potatoes.
C．Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamins and low in glycermic index.
D．Sweet potatoes taste very sweet.

They say a cat has nine lives, and I think that possible since I am now living my third life and I'm not even a cat. My father died when I was 15, and we had a hard struggle to make a living. And my mother, who was seriously ill in her last years，died while still in her 60s.My sister married soon after, and I_followed_her_example_within_the_year.
This was when I began to enjoy my first life. I was very happy, in excellent health. I had a good job in San Jose and a beautiful home up the peninsula(半岛) in San Carlos. Life was a pleasant dream. Then the dream ended. I became afflicted(使苦恼) with a slowly progressive disease of the
motor nerves, affecting first my right arm and leg, and then my other side. Thus began my second life...In spite of my disease I still drove to and from work each day, with the aid of special equipment installed in my car. And I managed to keep my health and optimism, to a degree，because of 14 steps. Crazy? Not at all. Our home was an affair with 14 steps leading up from the garage to the kitchen door. Those steps were a standard measure of life. They were my yardstick, my challenge to continue living. I felt that if the day arrived when I was unable to lift one foot up one step and then drag the other painfully after it—repeating the process 14 times, I would be through—I could then admit defeat and lie down and die.
Then on a dark night in August, 1971, I began my third life. It was raining when I started home that night；strong winds and slashing rain beat down on the car as I drove slowly down one of the less traveled roads. Suddenly the steering wheel jerked(猝然一动)．In the same instant I heard the bang of a blowout. It was impossible for me to change that tire! Utterly impossible!
I started the engine and thumped slowly along until I came to the dirt road，where I turned in and where I found lighted windows welcomed me to a house and pulled into the driveway and honked the horn.
The door opened and a little girl stood there. When she knew what happened to me, she went into the house and a moment later came out, followed by a man who called a cheerful greeting. I sat there comfortable and dry, and felt a bit sorry for the man and the little girl working so hard in the storm.
About an hour later, the man's voice was heard, “This is a bad night for car trouble, but you're all set now.” Thanks.” I said，“How much do I owe you？” He shook his head, “Nothing. Cynthia told me you were a cripple. Glad to be of help. I know you'd do the same for me.There's no charge, friend.” I held out a fivedollar bill，“No! I like to pay my way.” He made no effort to take it and the little girl stepped closer to the window and said quietly，“Grandpa can't see it.”
59．“A cat has nine lives” here means ________.
A．a cat can live nine times longer than any other animal
B．a cat can die ninth
C．a lucky man can not die easily
D．the writer will live nine times
60．What do you think of the man who helped change the tire?
A．Old, warmhearted but pitiable.
B．Blind, but warmhearted and happy.
C．A blind old man that has nothing to do every day.
D．A poor old man that is always ready to help others.
61．How do you understand the underlined sentence “I followed her example within the year”？
A．He listened to his sister carefully.
B．Mother told him that he must get the agreement from his sister for whatever he would do.
C．His sister got married. He, too.
D．His sister was a great woman. He must learn from her.
C
The slow death of the American dream for middle class families has continued in the last couple of years in the wake of the financial crisis.
A study shows a shocking decline in the average net worth of US households from 2007 to 2010.The average American family saw their net worth drop 40%in that three years，from $126,400 to$77,300.
The loss，not surprisingly，is due in large part to falling home prices. The average homeowner saw their net worth fall more than $ 70,000 from roughly $ 250,000 in 2007 to $ 175，000 in 2010
In three years,18 years of savings have been wiped away for the majority of the country and at the same time wages have fallen. The average income fell from about $ 50,000 in 2007 to $ 46,000 in 2010.
But this negative trend does not stop there. As average families become poorer，rich Americans are growing richer. The Fed survey showed the wealthiest 10%of families actually saw their net worth rise from 2007 to 2010.Over that time period，their net worth increased from $ 1.17 million to $ 1.19 million.
The continued decline of the American middle class has resulted in income inequality at levels not seen since the Great Depression. Many economists agree.
While the major consumer spending has historically come from the middle class，if the majority of Americans continue to suffer from falling wages and income，eventually something has got to give. There is no possible way for the superrich to buy enough stuff to float the entire US economy.
It is growing increasingly clear that we live in drastic times(非常时期)and drastic measures must be taken to save the country's middle class. One drastic measure is that more Americans are putting off retirement because they simply can't afford it.
62．Which of the following could be the title of the passage?
A．The current situation of the Americans
B．The economic crisis’ impact on the USA
C．The fading of the American middle class families' dream
D．Bad economies in the USA
63．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT affected by the financial crisis?
A．Household. B．House prices.
C．Average income. D．Population.
64．What is the measure taken to save the country's major consumers?
A．Putting off retirement.
B．Making the superrich buy more.
C．Reducing the working hours.
D．Providing more job opportunities.
65．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Retirement can save America from financial crisis.
B．The middle class are the only victims of the financial crisis.
C．The American economy is floating.
D．The middle class are vital to the US economy.

Antarctica's Lake Vostok has long been a mystery to scientists. Sealed(密封) off from the outside world for millions of years, Vostok is buried beneath 13 000 feet of ice. The huge underground lake is the size of Lake Ontario and is located in one of Antarctica's coldest regions. Scientists want to know：What lives below the ice?
They might find out soon. After more than 10 years, a team of Russian scientists have finally been able to drill through the ice into Vostok's ancient waters. Vostok lies below one of the coldest zones on Earth, and the ice here is denser than ice elsewhere on the planet. Drilling can take place each year only during Antarctica's warmest weather. This is when the ice is easier to drill, and the temperatures are not as severe for scientists living in the Vostok Research Station, which is above the lake. Numerous past attempts to reach the lake, including one last year, failed because the scientists did not finish drilling before the weather became too cold.
Scientists estimate that Vostok has been closed off from the outside world for approximately 30 million years. Signs of tiny organisms called microbes (微生物)were discovered years ago in the ice above the lake. Some researchers think similar lifeforms could be thriving (兴盛的，繁荣的) below the ice shielding (防护，保护)Vostok's waters.
Ancient forms of life that could remain in these waters might reveal new information about how organisms can survive in extreme environments, and about how life used to exist on Earth millions of years ago. “For me, the discovery of this lake is comparable with the first flight into space，” says expedition director Valery Lukin. “By technological complexity, by importance, by uniqueness.”
More than 350 underground lakes are frozen below Antarctica, and Lake Vostok is one of the largest. Teams of scientists are now planning to drill into similar lakes throughout Antarctica. In December(summertime in the Southern Hemisphere), an American team will be tunneling into Lake Whillans near the South Pole, and a British team will attempt to reach Lake Ellsworth in West Antarctica.
66．Russian scientists drilled through the ice into Lake Vostok ________.
A．to fetch some ancient water
B．to find some ancient forms of life
C．to explore natural resources
D．to measure the thickness of ice
67．It can be inferred that the task of Russian scientists drilling ________.
A．was not easy
B．was a piece of cake
C．was done all through the year
D．never achieved success
68．Based on their findings what are researchers expected to do?
A．To know the geographical features of Antarctica.
B．To solve mysteries of the ice at the South Pole.
C．To analyze the evolution history of the earth.
D．To open Antarctica's 30millionyearold secrets.
69．Research on Antarctica underground lakes like these can be considered ________.
A．the path of guiding human development
B．the result of human struggle for existence
C．a new frontier for scientists
D．a great victory against nature
70．Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．The floor of Antarctica is almost as irregular as the exposed land areas.
B．British and US teams are targeting Lakes Ellsworth and Whillans respectively.
C．The attempt to drill might fail during the Antarctic winter.
D．What was in the waters of Antarctica lakes has been revealed.

There are many TV programs on Chinese food, but few are like China at Your Tongue Tips. The latest sevenpart documentary (纪录片) offers insights into the geographical, historical and cultural aspects of what Chinese eat.

China at Your Tongue Tips shows social changes while presenting food culture, such as showing the elderly are in their hometowns while other members of this family work outside. In those cases, food serves as reminders of happy times and centerpieces of reunions.

Too Much Care Spoils A Child
As is shown in the picture above, the blooming plant is being destroyed by overwatering.Often people do things with good intentions, but the result may be quite different.Such can also be the case with us while we grow up.
To spare us the kind of hardships they had in their childhood, our parents tend to offer us too much care, for example, making beds, washing clothes and even carrying school bags for us.They are doing all these without knowing that they are actually spoiling us.
As far as I am concerned, we children can't depend on our parents in everything, and at the same time our parents are supposed to let ourselves do whatever we can.As children, what we really need is to experience difficulties and take challenges so that we can learn from our own mistakes and grow to be independent.Only in this way can we become stronger to shoulder our due responsibilities.
