Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it
needs proper treatment and proper nourishment (营养).The old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain
vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy.

doesn"t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

举一反三
business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing
and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed,
and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low
carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while
using its supply of natural resources.
Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the
global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for
example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global
energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge
amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth
in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without
cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by
more than 50%.
Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for
reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger
arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally,
governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some
of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.
The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the
limits if this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product
industries.
B. it consumes natural resources
C. it brings severe damage to forests
D. it makes growth hard to continue
B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.
C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.
D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.
B. forbid carbon emission
C. develop public resources
D. encourage energy conservation
B. explore new natural resources
C. make full use of natural resources
D. deal with the major challenge
B. To compare two business models.
C. To predict a change of the global market.
D. To advocate sustainable development.
Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with
the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted, although more as a self-evident statement than
on the base of a closely-reasoned scientific proof. The recognition of the importance of green-spaces in
the urban environment is a first step on the right way; this does not mean, however, that enough details
are known about the functions of green spaces in towns and about the way in which the inhabitants are
using these spaces.
The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation which for many years has been
used in town-and-country planning, has in my opinion resulted in disproportionate (不成比例的)
attention for forms of recreation far from home, whereas there was relatively little attention for
improvement of recreative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the
conclusion that this is not right, because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping
or working, is used for activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has
to begin at the street door of the house. The urban environment has to offer as many recreation activities
as possible, and the design of these has to be such that more obligatory (强制性的) activities can also
have a recreative aspect.
The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if
the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets, because the risks of traffic are too great, if during
shopping you can nowhere find a spot of enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself at home after the street door of your house is closed after you.
B. is being closely studied
C. is usually neglected
D. has been fully recognized
B. all of the recreation facilities far from home
C. relatively little attention for recreative possibilities
D. the improvement of recreative possibilities in the neighborhood
B. in the suburbs
C. in the neighbourhood of the house
D. in gardens and parks
B. show that recreation activities are very important
C. show how recreation activities have spread wildly
D. suggest how to offer recreation activities around home
B. There are too many distractions outside his home.
C. There are few recreations around his house.
D. One needs the street door of his house to be opened always.
myths (神话,想象) about it than any of the other illnesses.
The most widespread mistake of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused
by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or
indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the
Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated Arctic regions explorers have
reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected (感染的) people from the
outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.?
At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they
gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot
baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be doused (浸入) with cold water, and then
stood about dripping (滴干) wet in drafty (通风的) rooms. Some wore wet socks all day while others
exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless
a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.?
If cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? In
spite of the most painstaking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by
scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this
makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.?
No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors such as aspirin, but
all they do is to relieve the symptoms.?
B. viruses are the factors causing colds
C. colds are more severe than other illnesses
D. the idea that cold leads to colds doesn"t stand up
B. taking hot baths made the volunteers easy to be tired
C. it was viruses not wet and cold that made people have colds
D. people who would like to exercise in the rain got colds more easily
B. viruses can go into people"s warm bodies more easily in winter
C. staying together indoors makes it easier for viruses to pass on
D. people are usually weak because of the extreme cold in winter
B. The continued spread of colds.
C. The experiments on colds.
D. The myths about colds.
environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject
has to start with the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted, although more as a self-proved
statement than on the base of a closely reasoned scientific proof. Recognizing the importance of
greenspaces in the city environment is a first step on the right way, this does not mean, however, that
enough details are known about the functions of greenspace in towns and about the way in which people
are using these spaces. As to this subject I shall within the scope (范围) of this lecture, enter into one
aspect only, namely the recreative function of greenspace facilities.
The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation which for many years has been
used in town and country planning, has in my opinion resulted in more attention for forms of recreation
far from home, while there was relatively little attention for improvement of recreative possibilities in the
direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the conclusion that this is not right, because an
important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working, is used for activities at and
around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street door of the house.
The city environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible, and the design of these has to
be such that more required activities can also have recreative aspect.
The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if
the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets because the risks of traffic are too great, if during
shopping you can nowhere find a spot for enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only
feel yourself at home after the street door of your house is closed after you.

D. Delivering a free service.
B. doing something again in a creative way
C. doing something important after work
D. required activities done after work
B. to attract more and more people
C. for people to use more conveniently
D. for people to do recreative activities at the street door of the house
B. greenspace facilities should be used better to improve the quality of life
C. the city environment is providing more recreative activities
