阅读理解。     As a kid, I can remember going to the supermarket and grabbing eggs off the shelf. I would run them
home to my mother because they were usually going into a delicious cake. Times  have  changed.  
Cagefree?  Organic?  Brown? White? Omega3s? Help! Here are some tips to help you figure out which
eggs you should choose:
     ●Brown or white? In fact, color is simply a sign of the breed of hen. Find the freshest egg with the
most flavor and let color be a secondary concern.
     ●Extra Omega3s? Omega3 eggs come from a hen whose diet has added flaxseed(亚麻籽) ,which
produces an egg containing an average of 225 mg of Omega3 fatty acids and Vitamin E. The countless
health benefits for humans make these eggs an attractive purchase. My opinion? Eat a piece of fresh fish
and get a pure dose of Omega3s. Let eggs be eggs.
     ●Does your egg need exercise? Freerange eggs are from hens raised without the confines of a cage,
though they may or may not have spent much time outdoors. Organic eggs are from hens whose feed
must meet organic standards. These hens must be raised humanely, and they must be given time to stay
outdoors. Hey, happier hens do lay tastier eggs.
     ●Does local make a difference? Nothing is better than local eggs. They may have a feather or two
stuck to them or be a little imperfect shape and they may or may not be certified (证明) organic;
however, they have one quality I prize: I know exactly where my food came from and how it came to be!
In some cases I can even ask the farmer when the eggs were laid and what the hens were fed.1. What does the author think of Omega3 eggs?A. They are a good choice for people to purchase.
B. They contain fewer Omega3s than fresh fish.
C. They have the highest content of pure Omega3s.
D. They are not the best source of Omega3s.2.The underlined part "Freerange" probably means"______".A. wild      
B. organic
C. special    
D. Omega3free3. According to the passage, which of the following has nothing to do with an egg"s quality?A. The egg"s color.    
B. The hen"s exercise.
C. The hen"s living conditions.  
D. The hen"s food.4. This passage is most probably taken from a book named________.A. Shopping Skills 
B. Eggs and Cooking
C. Raising Hens  
D. Healthy Diet
答案

阅读理解。     It is true that good writers rewrite and rewrite and then rewrite some more. But in order to work up
the desire to rewrite, it is important to learn to like what you write at the early stage.
     I am surprised at the number of famous writers I know who say that they so dislike reading their own
writing later that they even hate to look over the publishers" opinions. One reason we may dislike reading
our own work is that we"re often disappointed that the rich ideas in our minds seem very thin and plain
when first written down. Jerry Fodor and Steven Pinker suggest that this fact may be a result of how our
minds work.
     Different from popular belief, we do not usually think in the words and sentences of ordinary language
but in symbols for ideas (known as"mentalese"),and writing our ideas down is an act of translation from
that symbolic language. But while mentalese contains our thoughts in the form of a complex tapestry (织锦),writing can only be composed one thread at a time. Therefore it should not be surprising that our first
attempt at expressing ideas should look so simple. It is only by repeatedly rewriting that we produce new
threads and connect them to get closer to the ideas formed in our minds.
     When people write as if some strict critics (批评家) are looking over their shoulder, they are so
worried about what this critic might say that they get stuck before they even start. Peter Elbow makes an
excellent suggestion to deal with this problem. When writing we should have two different minds. At the
first stage, we should see every idea, as well as the words we use to express it, as wonderful and worth
putting down. It is only during rewrites that we should examine what we excitedly wrote in the first stage
and check for weaknesses.1. What do we learn from the text about those famous writers?A. They often regret writing poor works.
B. Some of them write surprisingly much.
C. Many of them hate reading their own works.
D. They are happy to review the publishers" opinions.2. What do people generally believe about the way human minds work?A. People think in words and sentences.
B. Human ideas are translated into symbols.
C. People think by connecting threads of ideas.
D. Human thoughts are expressed through pictures.3. What can we conclude from the text?A. Most people believe we think in symbols.
B. Loving our own writing is scientifically reasonable.
C. The writers and critics can never reach an agreement.
D. Thinking and writing are different stages of mind at work.

阅读理解。     Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of
spinach to make him strong. People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach.
Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many
people"s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
     Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does
not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.
     People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a
mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that
spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted
it.
     Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person
is.However, spinach does have something else which the body needs-folic acid.
     It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic
acid that made Popeye strong all along.    1. A good title for this reading passage is______.A. Popeye the Sailor
B. The Truth About Spinach
C. A Mistake with Numbers
D. Folic Acid Makes You Strong2. Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?A. They thought spinach made them strong.
B. They thought Popeye was funny.
C. Spinach had a lot of iron.
D. People liked folic acid.3. A research group told people that spinach______.A. made Popeye strong
B. was a green vegetable
C. had less iron than other green vegetables
D. had more iron than other green vegetables4. The reading passage says that perhaps Popeye got his strength from______.A. iron
B. folic acid
C. spinach
D. exercise5. Folic acid is ______.A. something in food
B. a vegetable
C. dangerous
D. a certain kind of spinach

     Thank you for your valuable suggestions. We have decided to show the Chinese character along with
the Hanyu Pinyin for names of Chinese personages, places and specific things as from the next issue.
     Reply letter B
     Thank you for your suggestions. Next year will be the 50th anniversary of the establishment of
Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. One of our staff reporters has just returned from Xinjiang and
written a long article about her trip. Next year, we will have even more coverage of Xinjiang.
     Reply letter C
     Other readers have asked us for similar information and we have so far answered them individually. In
this issue, we will print an open reply. We discovered after making a survey that there are few books to
be found on China printed in English. Most are published by the Foreign Languages Press and China
International press, from where it is possible to buy books directly.
     Reply letter D
     A majority of Chinese tourists travel abroad in order to see different landscapes and various cultures,
to appreciate an exotic atmosphere and to get to know local customs. Some Chinese tourists nevertheless go to China towns, because they can eat Chinese food there. For those who don"t know English or the
native language of the country they visit, it is convenient to go shopping or find entertainment in a
Chinatown.
     Reply letter E
     We have taken on your suggestions to start a column on personalities. There are kinds of reports,
such as movie stars, directors, businessmen, singers and so on. Our reports not only introduce their
achievements, but also report their inner world. We hope you will enjoy it.

     Thanks for your appreciation of our magazine. We have mailed your letter and your e-mail address to
Tingting. Since both of her two letters were sent by ordinary mail and did not give her e-mail address or
telephone number. We could not get in touch with her any other way.

     Letter A
     I have just started reading your magazine regularly and enjoy the articles very much. I have one
comment to make. Can you include the Chinese characters for the names of people, places, etc that you
mention with the Hanyu Pinyin of Romanized phonetic system that you use? For example, what is "Emei"
or "Qitaihe"or "Shaoxing" in Chinese? It"s also helpful for those of us who are learning Chinese.
     Letter B.
     It was interesting to read the magazine. I wonder if you could start a column which introduces the
Chinese elites of art, business, sports, politics, especially directors, actors, anchors (主持人) and singers.
I believe readers will also appreciate a livelier style.
     Letter C
     I am a civil servant in Xinjiang, a region relatively underdeveloped in comparison with other provinces. But this does not mean it belong to another world. Xinjiang could benefit from overseas exchanges as
well as contact with people living in other regions. Could you include articles about Xinjiang and its
people? I suggest magazines report more about the western regions, especially exotic and charming
Xinjiang.
     Letter D
     I am an avid (热衷的) reader of your magazine and it has helped me to introduce China to foreign
friends. Thank you for great efforts to bring New China to the world. Next month, I may get the
opportunity to go to Nigeria, so I must learn more about China"s history and culture. Could you kindly
recommend a suitable book in English?
     Letter E
It was interesting to read "Chinese Travelers Step out". It seems a large percentage of Chinese tourists
visit the West. In Indonesia, Chinese New Year is an official holiday. How would you assess the level of
interest Chinese tourists have in Indonesia? Would they like to visit Chinatowns or other unique attractions in Indonesia?
