It means breakfast should be the most important meal of your day. Why?The answer is in the word breakfast itself. Breakfast means “breaking of the fast(禁食期)”. There are about twelve hours between dinner and breakfast, so its important to eat breakfast to keep in good health. Also, the food for breakfast will give you what you need in the day.Eating a good breakfast is important, but not many people are changing their eating habits. In the USA, about 60% of people have their main meal in the evening. For most Japanese and Australians, the evening meal is the main meal of the day, too.In Mexico, the main meal for many families is usually at 2:00 pm. In Switzerland, the main meal is also in the middle of the day.Many nutritionist(营养师) say people should eat small, lowfat meals five or six times a day. However, most people think that what you eat is more important than when you eat it. Eating healthy foods like vegetables, fish, and fresh fruit is a good way to enjoy a healthy life.（1）Whats the main meal of the day for most Americans?A . BreakfastB . Lunch.C .

Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon. They dont feel hurt. If the same two people meet again, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand. Friendships between us develop more slowly but may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）deeply into both families.There is another difficult point for us to understand. Although Americans treat friends warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to them if it requires a great deal of time. But in China, we are usually generous with our time. We, as hosts, will appear at an airport even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off from our work to act as guides to our friends: It is opposite in America, Americans can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily plans. They will probably expect the visitors to get themselves from the airport to the hotels. And they expect the visitors will phone them from there. Once the visitors arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to restaurants, except for business matters. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. So accept their hospitality（好客）at home and enjoy your visit in America!（1）The underlined phrase “pick up” in Paragraph 1 may mean “_”.A . keep outB . give upC . pay no attention toD . continue（2）Which of the following is the typical way of American hospitality?A .

You tum around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists(R y3)say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a six sense really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects(受试者)were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they werent. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves（1）Whats the aim of the two experiments for? A . Prove why humans have a sixth sense.B . Explain when people can have a sixth senseC . Show how people act while being watched in the labD . Study whether humans can sense when they are stared at（2）The underlined word outcome in the last paragraph most probably means? A . ValueB . ResultC . PerformanceD . Connection（3）What is the writers opinion about the the sixth sense? A . He is not sure about itB . He is sure that it doesnt exist(存在)C . He wants us to find out together with himD . He agrees with the parapsy
