26、years ,peopleespecially young peoplehave become aware of the need to change their eating habits ,because much of the food they eat ,particularly processed foods ,is not good for the health .As a result ,there has been a growing interest in natural foods :foods which do not contain chemical fertilize

27、rs ,widely used in farming today.Natural foods ,for example ,are vegetables ,fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic（有机的）matter . In simple terms ,this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter ,which provides it with essential vitamins and miner

28、als. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers , the main purpose of which is to increase the amountbut not the qualityof food grown in commercial farming areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy

29、grassland for cattle .Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry（家禽）:there are battery farms ,for example ,where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish .Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless

30、 as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.There are other things of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet .Take ,for example ,the question of sugar .This is actually a non-essential food! Although another natural food ,such as honey ,ca

31、n be used to sweeten food if this is necessary ,we can in fact do without it .It is not that sugar is harmful in itself .But it does seem to be addictive : the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last two centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year !Ye

32、t all it does is provide us with energy ,in the form of calories .There are no vitamins in it ,no minerals ,and no fibre.Its very important that nowadays fibre is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet .In white bread ,for example ,the fibre has been removed .But it is present in unref

33、ined flour and of course in vegetables .It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables ,certain diseases are comparatively not often seen .For this reason ,the importance is placed on the eating of wholemeal（没有去麸的面粉）bre

34、ad and more vegetables by modern experts on “healthy eating”.45People have become more interested in natural foods because .Athey want to keep fitBthey want to taste all kinds of foodsCnatural foods are more delicious than processed foodsDthey want to return to nature46Chickens raised in poultry far

35、ms are all of the following EXCEPT that .Athey are fed on food which is little better than garbageBthey live in very crowed conditionCthe eggs they produce lack vitaminsDthey are allowed to move about and eat freely47According to the passage, .Apeople need sugar to give them energyBsugar is bad for

36、the healthCthe use of sugar is habit formingDsugar only sweetens food, but provides us with nothing usefulCWhat's your dream vacation? Watching wildlife in Kenya? Boating down the Amazon? Sunbathing in Malaysia? New chances are opening up all the time to explore the world. So we visit travel age

37、nts, compare packages and prices , and pay our money.We know what our vacation costs us. But do we know what it might cost someone else? It's true that many poorer countries now depend on tourism for foreign income. Unfortunately, though, tourism often harms the local people more than it helps t

38、hem.It might cost their homes and lands. In Myanmar, 5,200 people were forced to leave their homes among the pagodas（佛塔）in Bagan so that tourists could visit the pagodas.Tourism might also cost the local people their livelihood and dignity. Local workers often find only menial（卑微的）jobs in the touris

39、t industry. And most of the profits do not help the local economy. Instead, profits return to the tour operators in wealthier countries, When the Maasai people in Tanzania were driven from their lands, some moved to city slums. Others now make a little money selling souvenirs or posing for photos.Pr

40、oblems like these were observed more than 20 years ago. But now some non-government organizations, tour operators and local governments are working together to begin correcting them. Tourists, too, are putting on the pressure.The result is responsible tourism, or “ethical tourism.” Ethical tourism h

41、as people at its heart. New international agreements and codes of conduct can help protect the people's lands, homes, economies and cultures. The beginnings are small, though, and the problems are complex.But take heart. The good news is that everyone, including us, can play a part to help the l

42、ocal people in the places we visit. Tour operators and companies can help by making sure that local people work in good conditions and earn reasonable wages.They can make it a point to use only locally owned hotel, restaurants and guide services. They can share profits fairly to help the local econo

43、my. And they can involve the local people in planning and managing tourism.What can tourists do? First, we can ask tour companies to provide information about the conditions of local citizens. We can then make our choices and tell them why. And while we're abroad, we can:Buy local foods and prod

44、ucts, not imported ones.Pay a fair price for goods and services and not bargain for the cheapest price.Avoid flaunting wealth.Ask before taking photographs of people.They are not just part of the landscape!Let's enjoy our vacation and make sure others do, too.48What is probably the best title fo

DVacations Cost More Than You Think49Which of the following is not mentioned?ALocal people were well paid to leave their lands.BTourists may stay in hotels opened by local people.CLocal people

48、n April 21Thirty student volunteers from the universitys School of International Studies sat at the beds of the patients in their specially - decorated“ care huts”. They talked with them and gave massages （按摩）to patients kept in their beds.I felt sorry that I could not offer more to these people tha

49、n talking with them and trying to cheer them up. said Deng Yetao, 20, a third - year student. “But it occurred to me that they need more care and love than babies. They are afraid of the coming death. Their loneliness is worse than physical pains.”“Even though they are suffering a lot, the majority

50、of the elderly people want to talk to us. Each of them has a lot of life experiences and philosophies to share. Instead of doing them a favor, I felt I was gaining a valuable lesson. Said Mao Xiaohua, another third - year student.Mao talked with two elderly patients for a whole afternoon. The fact t

51、hat most of the patients in the 80 - room clinic are aged people with diseases which will lead to death soon made the volunteers hearts heavy.Ninety - one percent of the patients will spend the last days of their lives in the clinic, according to a survey by the hospital.Daily visits and services by

52、 social workers and youth volunteers are a very important part of their programmer. A total of 330, 000 Beijing students from 119 universities and colleges have visited the hospital. Many continue to offer services in their spare time. Some of them volunteer to hold the hands of dying patients durin
