15、family go to Greece every summer. Uncle Spyro and Aunt Aspa lived about 45 minutes outside of Athens. Every summer when we travelled to Greece, we would spend a couple of days with them.I remember all the fun things we would do there. We would shake almonds (杏仁) off of the branches of Uncle Spyros a

16、lmond trees. Using his strong arms, he would break the shells off, and present us with the shiny white nut. With Aunt Aspa we would pick lemons off her lemon trees and carry them inside the small house with the help of Uncle Spyro. Drinking the fresh lemonade and eating the delicious almonds, we wou

17、ld sit on the porch and talk. Uncle Spyro and Aunt Aspa didnt speak English, and my Greek wasnt and still isnt perfect. But those peacefully quiet time on the porch were the time that I miss most.Uncle Spyro developed cancer from smoke for most of his life and he became very sick. We didnt go to Gre

18、ece in 2009, but we planned on going again in 2010. But just in the late spring of 2010, we found out that Uncle Spyro was in the hospital shortly before we left for Greece. My mother, Alethea, and I wanted to see him. But he passed away before we could get there. We were deeply grieved to hear the

19、news. Now, I wish that we had seen him for the last time. But my uncle didnt wait for us to go.We still visit Aunt Aspa and we still pick almonds and lemons. We still drink the fresh lemonade and eat the delicious almonds on the porch. But somehow the lemonade isnt as fresh, and the almonds arent as

20、 delicious as before.I think Im still here to comfort Aunt Aspa and that Im still here to finish my life. Im not afraid of death any more like some people. And I know that when I do die, Ill just be going up to Uncle Spyro, and well eat almonds and drink lemonade, just like before.26. The writer did

21、 some fun things except_.A. picking lemons off the lemon treesB. breaking the shells off the almonds with handsC. shaking almonds off the almond treeD. drinking fresh lemonade and eating the delicious almonds27. From the last sentence of paragraph three, we know that Uncle Spyro_.A. didnt like to wa

22、it for the writer B. went travelling before the writer arrived C. went to hospital after the writer reached Greece D. died before the writer went to see him28.

23、lyD. the writer could talk with his aunt fluently 29. The underlined word “grieved”in paragraph three means“_”.A. excitedB. angryC. sadD. proud30. The best title for the passage is“_”.A. An Unhappy DayB. Unforgettable Lemonade and almondsC. My Uncle and AuntD. An unforgettable tripBNowadays, the foo

24、d that you buy comes from many from different countries. Have a look in your bridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins (（来源） of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get t

25、o your plate. This journey, from “field to plate”, is called “food miles”. A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmers field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumers. Why is this, and what are the effects of these lon

26、g distances? Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market, so the food didnt have to travel very far. The consumers also did not travel very far because they went to their local market to buy the food. This was a good system for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvant

27、ages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. In addition, they could only get food that was in season. Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are avail

28、able in winter if we want. Some countries have to import（进口） most of their food. This is because they have difficult climates. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries. Even food made in the UAE often uses imported material. What is wrong with “food mile

29、s”? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes, lorries and ships to move the food. This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution

30、and more global （全球的）warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journeys. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and i

31、t also reduces the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food. 31. What is called “food miles” according to this passage?A. The origins of the food. B. The effects of long distances. C. The journey from field to plate. D. Te disadvantages of imported food. 32. The underlined word “av

32、ailable” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “_”A. easy to get B. not busy C. willing to talk D. impossible to get 33. Some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, have to import most of their food because of _. A. long distance B. difficult climates C. fresh and tasty food D. modern technology 34.

This passage is mainly about _. A. how local food travels from field to plate B. what “food miles” is and its effects C.

34、how some countries import their food D. where different kinds of food come from CHappiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy but few know how to find happiness. Money and success dont bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happi

35、ness.Some people believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. On the other hand, some people believe that holding a high place in the government is happiness. In this way, you have not only money, but also many other things which cant be bought

36、 by money. However, other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness, nor is holding a high place in the government. These people value（重视）their beliefs, or their wisdom, or their health. They think these can make them happy. Here are the ways to help you be happier.The secret of happ

37、iness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job that we dont enjoy the present. You should enjoy lifes simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or

38、 spending time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.The secret of happiness is also to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports.
