Pumpkins (南瓜)of almost any variety have flesh high in fiber and beta carotene ((β-胡萝 卜
素).But we don't eat the vast majority of the pumpkins grown in the U. S. Instead, we, of course, carve faces
into them, light them and perhaps leave them to sit outside for days. And then we threw them. But could we
be eating more pumpkins?
The Howden pumpkin---the most common variety for decorative uses 一 has been produced for its size,
shape, color and having a handle-like stem for easy carrying, according to Katie Kammler, gardening
specialist with the University of Missouri Extension. “If it was my choice, carved pumpkins are not what I'd
want to eat, " Kammler says. Instead, she'd prefer one of the smaller and sweeter varieties---like the jack —
be — little, Hubbard or kabocha, which have been selected over time for taste.
“You could puree(把 ......研成糊状)your pumpkin, ” she tells The Salt by email. “If you
go that route, I'd recommend using the puree for baking; sugar and spices will go a long way in improving the
taste. ”
Now, admittedly, eating your Halloween pumpkin this way means not carving it. So what if you have
already carved it?
We asked the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) whether they recommended eating Halloween
pumpkins. Spokeswoman Lauren Sucher said, “They may have been left outside for days and exposed to dirt
and insects, and possibly wax and smoke. But we recommend that consumers who want to use their
pumpkins for food set aside some parts, such as pumpkin seeds, and roast them soon after carving. "
But this doesn't mean after Halloween there aren't better things to do with your pumpkin than putting it in
landfills(垃圾填埋地). Kammler says those in good condition make great farm animal feed.
Another suggestion from Chef Dan Barber. "Donate your pumpkin to compost (堆肥)at your local
farmers' market. So if it doesn't feed us at least it's helping crops grow.”
24. What do we learn about the Howden pumpkin?
A. It is most suitable for Halloween.
B. It is mainly used for food products.
C. It is more delicious than the jack-be-little.
D. It is Kammler's favorite variety of pumpkin.
25. What does Kammler mainly tell The Salt?
A. How to puree your pumpkin.
B. How to eat Halloween pumpkins.
C. How to cook uncarved pumpkins.D. How to improve the taste of pumpkins.
26. What is the FDA's attitude to eating carved Halloween pumpkins?
A. Disapproving. B. Dissatisfied.
C. Uncertain. D. Uncaring.
27. What should we do to deal with unwanted pumpkins according to the text?
A Eat those in good condition.
B Bury them under the ground.
C. Sell them at local farmers, market.
D. Give them to farms to improve soil.

For some years, my mother worked for a charity as President and Secretary. Selling raffle tickets(兑奖
券)was her main means of bringing in the charity's much-needed funds. We girls would accompany her,
selling tickets with great success. My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys, jewellery boxes and
other lovely items as prizes.
Now my sister was always coming up with ''good ideas” , most of which didn't work out to plan. But
that didn't deter her. She had many just waiting to be tested. When she was eight and I was just five, we had a
wonderful idea for a business adventure. We decided we would sell raffle tickets for charity, and that charity
was us!
So one afternoon, we told our mother we were going to play in the park with our cousins as we did most
days after school. But instead, we walked around the streets armed with a raffle book, a pen and a large cloth
bag to carry the money.
We'd accompanied our mother many times when she sold tickets, so people were familiar with us when
we appeared at their doors. Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer, they
were very generous. Although there were no actual prizes, our mother's previous track record enabled us to
sell nearly the whole book of raffle tickets.
Like a little pair of lottery (彩票)winners, we walked home arid proudly showed off our takings.
But our enjoyment of this sudden wealth was short-lived, and our plans for spending it quickly failed. Our
angry mother took us back to every ticket buyer, making us apologise and give the money back. Thankfully,
our sweet neighbours didn't make a big deal of our “clever” misbehavior and thus my mother's fundraising
career could continue safely. We were taught a good lesson by our mother that day. Also I remember my
sister's entrepreneurial 业家的)spirit dried up a bit after that.
28. What did the author's father do?
A。. He got prizes ready. B. He sold handmade items.
C. He was in charge of a charity. D. He helped design raffle tickets.
29. What does the underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A, Embarrass. B. Shock. C. Discourage. D. Mislead.
30. What can be learned about the author and her sister while selling raffle tickets?
A. They ran into their mother.B They met some generous strangers.
C. They got lost while walking around the streets.
D. They took advantage of people's trust in their mother.
31. What lesson did the author and her sister learn?
A. Honesty is the best policy. What's done can't be undone.
C. Misfortune never comes alone. D. Good advice is beyond all price.

You are walking over the tan-colored (棕褐色的)sand of the empty desert when a rattlesnake
appears out of the sand in front of you. Luckily it had warned you of its presence. Imagine if that same snake
were moved to a green leafy rainforest. The colors that helped the snake blend into (融合)the desert
would make it stand out against the green environment.
This just goes to show you that camouflage(保护色)doesn't work everywhere. Let' s take a look at
one animal species that is famous for changing over time to stay camouflaged: the peppered moth. Moth
collectors in England noted that most peppered moths collected in the early 1800s were light gray peppered
with bits of black. Many years later most of the moths collected were almost completely black. What could
have caused the more common light colored moth to become rare?
During the 1800s, Europe and America experienced the Industrial Revolution. One of the new fuel
sources that were heavily used during this time period was coal. As the trees darkened with soot(煤烟),
the light-colored moths were easier to see. They were eaten by birds more and more, while the rare dark
colored moths blended in better on the darker trees. This made them have a higher survival rate and thus they
were more likely to pass their dark colored genes onto their children. Over time, the dark colored moths
became the more common of the two color forms. Natural selection favored the dark moths, so they were
more successful after the trees changed.
Sound a little hard to believe? Well, more changes have come about since these conditions started to
reverse(转变),starting in the 1950s. Then, a Clean Air Act was introduced. Since that time, technology
and cleaner burning fuels have started to decrease pollution in the areas where the peppered moth lives. The
black soot no longer settles on the trees. As expected, the light peppered moth has recently been more
common in the population. This is because it is better camouflaged.
32. What do we know about the rattlesnake in a desert?
A. It almost has no enemies.
B. It attacks travelers often.
C. It stands out against the environment.
D. It is good at making its presence unknown.
33. The underlined word "This” in Paragraph 3 refers" ”
A. the soot-darkened tree
B. the Industrial Revolution
C. dark-colored moths staying camouflaged
D. light-colored moths facing more enemies34.What did the Clean Air Act bring about?
A. Damage to local ecology .
B. More observations of moths.
C. An increase in the variety of moth species.
D. A decrease in the number of dark-colored moths.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. Camouflage in the animal world.
B. The battle between two moth species.
C. The influence of the Industrial Revolution.
D. An excellent example of environmental adaptation.

Surprising uses for lemons

●Lemons are used to refresh and clean a cutting board.

all sorts of harmful bacteria.

wash and enjoy your lemon-fresh cutting board.

First, several lemons are squeezed for their juices into a cup, then the drain is washed with boiling water
before being filled with half a box of baking soda(苏打).Lemon juice is poured over the baking soda,
causing it to bubble. 38
●Another part of your kitchen you can clean with lemons is your microwave.
Putting some lemon juice into a cup of water and microwaving for 5 minutes not only loosens up stains
in the microwave so they are easily wiped away, but leaves a fresh smell behind.
● 39
If you are lucky enough to have a dishwasher in your house, you can freshen things up by putting a few
lemon slices into your dishwasher.
●Lemons can be used to create a homemade face scrub(磨砂膏).
