But they have been developing their kitchen skills for more than half their lives. When they had just learned to walk, they loved to hang out in the kitchen while their parents cooked dinner. At age 5, they made their first dish without help: pumpkin muffins.Audrey can still remember the way the muffins rose in the oven (烤箱), the painful wait for them to cool and the sweetness of the fresh-made treats. It was super exciting to make something so delicious almost all on our own, she says.Their parents are not very skilled at cooking, so Lilly and Audrey turned to other people for cooking advice. Auspiciously, they live in Sonoma, California, an area that is known for its farms and restaurants. One local cook gave the twins (双胞胎) lessons on cooking techniques, such as how to use knives; those classes taught Lilly and Audrey how to use kitchen tools safely.In xx, they started a blog (博客), on which they share photos and recipes (菜谱) they have created. Though the twins love creating sweet foods such as muffins, they also think about healthy food. They hope their cookbook will encourage kids to make better food choices by making them more knowledgeable.Knowing more about your food and where it es from certainly causes you to know more about what you eat and to put the best food in your body, Lilly says. That has been true for her. Lilly used to avoid eggplant at all costs, until one day she tried cooking it for herself. Now its one of her favorite vegetables. If you make something yourself and give it a try, youll probably like it, she says.21. Lilly and Audreys first dish.

Its celebrated on the third Sunday of June to honor Dads, Grandfathers, stepfathers and all men who act as a father figure. Like most holidays, the origin of Fathers Day is hard to trace (追溯)but most people will agree that Sonora Dodd played a big part in starting the holiday.Sonora Luise Smart Dodd brought up the idea of a fathers day in 1909. she wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. When Sonoras mother died in childbirth with her sixth child, William was left to raise the newborn and five other children by himself on a farm in Washington State. As an adult, Sonora realized how strong and unselfish her dad was, who had been raising his kids as a single parent.Sonora wanted Fathers Day to be celebrated on the first Sunday in June, because it was close to her dads birthday. Instead, the first Fathers Day celebration took place on June 19,1910 in Spokane, Washing. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson made the third Sunday of June Fathers Day. It wasnt until 1972 that President Richard Nixon made Fathers Day a national holiday-about 60 years after Mothers Day had been made a national holiday.Looking for the perfect gift, Dads say some of the best Fathers Day gifts have been tools, electronics and home-made gifts. Dont forget about gadgets(小器具)! Check out the handy gadgets and gifted ideas that will show your dad just how much you care about him. Try to stay away from ties, socks, and just not getting him anything at all!25Why did Sonora want a day to honor her father?

ASuggestions for picking up gifts for Dads BReasons for not buying anything for Dads CBenefits for buying Dads gifts DWays to make gifts for DadsCEver since they were first put on the market in the early 1990s, genetically modified (GM) foods（转基因食物）have been increasingly developed and marketed in many countries in the word, mainly on the basis of their promise to end the worldwide food crisis. But can GM technology solve world hunger problems? Even if it would, is it the best solution? Despite what it promises, GM technology actually has not increased the production potential of any crop. In fact, studies show that the most widely grown GM crop, GM soybeans, has suffered reduced productivity. For example, a report that analyzed nearly two decades of research on major GM food crops shows that GM engineering has failed to significantly increase US crop production.Something else, however, has been on the rise, While GM seeds are expensive, GM panies tell farmers that they will make good profits by saving money on pesticides杀虫剂）. On the contrary, US government data show that GM crops in the US have produced an overall increase in pesticide use pared to traditional crops. “The promise was that you could use less chemicals and boost production. But nether is true,” said Bill Christian, President of the US National Farm Coalition.At the same time, the authors of the book World Hunger: Twelve Myths argue that there actually is more than enough food in the world and that the hunger crisis is not caused by production, but by problems in food distribution and politics. These indeed deserve our efforts and money. Meanwhile, the rise in food prices results from the increased use of crops for fuel rather than food, according to a xx World Bank report.As a matter of fact, scientists see better ways to feed the world. Another World Bank report concluded that GM crops have little to offer to the challenges of worldwide poverty and hunger, because better ways out are available, among which “green” farming is supposed to be the first choice.29.The author develops the second paragraph mainly。 A. by classification B. by parison C. by example D. by process 30. What does the underlined word “boost” in the third paragraph probably mean? A. control. B. evaluate C. obtain. D. increase.31. GM panies promise farmers that they will benefit from _. A. practicing “green” farming B. use of fewer chemicals C. fair distribution of their crops D. using more crops for fuel32. Which of the following best describes the attitude of the author towards GM technology? A. Positive B. Neutral C. Disagreeing D. CasualDLong March exhibitThe Shanghai History Museum is putting on an exhibition to mark the 60th anniversary of the Long March.
