Yes, dark chocolate has compounds (化合物)that offer health benefits and can be enjoyed without guilt, even on a daily basis. But the amount matters, since too many bites

19、can contribute to extra fat, sugar and calories and get rid of its health benefits.Dark chocolate is rich in cocoa, which contains compounds known as flavanols(黄烷醇). At high levels, cocoa flavanols have been shown to help lower blood pressure and the risk of diabetes. Dark chocolate has the highest

20、amount of cocoa flavanols: milk chocolate has lens, and white chocolate has none.But while cocoa flavanols in dark chocolate make it a healthful treat, they give it a biter flavor. Producers may process chocolate to make it more delicious, but doing so can remove some of these beneficial compounds,

21、said Matt Hartings, an American professor. In spite of this, dark chocolate is still a healthier choice than milk chocolate, which tends to have more sugar. Additionally, cocoa powder contains minerals. So you can enjoy a piece of dark chocolate even after a meal. Just keep the following in mind.Fir

22、st , buy chocolate that has at least 60% cocoa. “Generally speaking, the higher the percentage, the more flavanols. These higher-percentage chocolates have the added benefit over the lower percentages and milk and white chocolates because they contain less sugar and less fat,” Hartings said,Second,

23、if possible, choose natural cocoa over Dutch processed cocoa, which is treated with an alkali (碱). This gives chocolate a milder flavor but removes healthful flavanols.And finally, to keep weight in check, limit to 30 grams of dark chocolate daily, or about 150 calories,1、Dark chocolate is healthy m

26、tinction among chocolates.23（8分）Sports can help us a lot. Taking exercises can make us strong. In collective(集体的) sports like basketball, volleyball or football, we will learn the importance of cooperation(合作). And sports can also help us relax after work or study.However, as the saying goes, “there

27、 are two sides of everything.” Sometimes we may hurt other players or ourselves if we are not careful enough when participating(参加) in sports activities. Whats more, too much or hard practice can be bad for our health.Sports can make us healthy both physically and psychologically(心理地). It is also a

28、good way for people to know each other and can improve friendship between people.

Except for its flowers, the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when t

31、hey are cooked. Its almost leafless, thread-like stems（茎）hang down on top of other plants that dodder needs to stay alive. Dodder does not produce its own food. Instead, it steals food from other plants. It feeds by sucking juices from the plant which is wrapped around, often making its host very we

32、ak or even killing it.Dodder can find other plants by their smell. When a young dodder plant starts growing, it follows the smell of plants it prefers, like tomato plants, potato plants, or other farm crops. Unlike most plants that usually grow in the direction of light or warmth, a dodder plant wil

33、l grow in the direction of, for example, tomato smell-if a tomato happens to be growing nearby.However, a young dodder plant must find a host plant quickly. It no longer needs its root once it is attached to the host and wrapped around it. If it cannot catch a smell of a potential host within a few

34、days, it will dry up and disappear-even if there is plenty of water around. Once it finds a host, the young dodder plant will attach itself to it and start growing faster. At that point the dodder plant will drop its root.Dodder is thus a difficult weed to manage and a real headache for farmers. Whe

35、n it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmers harvest or even destroy crops completely. Before sowing their produce, especially farmers in warm parts of the world often check to make sure no unwanted dodder seeds have mixed with their crop seeds. This is a good way to stop dodder pl

36、ants from making their way to a crop field secretly.1、Why does the author mention spaghetti in the first paragraph?ATo analyze the content of some food.BTo describe tie shape of dodder plants.CTo explain where the dodder plants come from.DTo argue that dodder plants can be used.2、What will happen if

37、 a dodder plant starts growing where there are no other plants around?AIt will die sooner or later.BIt will grow deep roots.CIt will attract other plants.DIt will cover the entire area of soil.3、What can be inferred from the passage?ADodder does not produce its own food.BDodder can affect farmers in

38、come.CDodder can only survive in the shade.DDodder only grows in the warm areas.4、What is the main topic of the passage?AA new variety of farm crops.BPlants that are harmful to humans.CThe special abilities of a dangerous plant.DRecent improvements in farming methods.25（10分） When you think of a jung

39、le adventure, what comes to mind? Are they gorgeous birds flying through the air or monkeys jumping through the forest? Do you think of plants? Probably not. After all, plants arent the most exciting living things in the world. They just sit there and absorb water and nutrients from the soil and the

40、 sun. But actually there are also some plants that eat insects and even small animals from time to time. We call these unusual things carnivorous(食肉性) plants. Although most carnivorous plants eat small insects, larger carnivorous plants in some hot and wet areas have been known to capture rats, bird

41、s, and frogs.One carnivorous plant many people are familiar with is the Venus flytrap. Its unique “jaws” will function when flies and other small insects touch it. Once its jaws close on its victim, it produces a chemical substance that breaks down the insect and absorbs the insects nutrients.There

42、are several other examples of carnivorous plants. For example, some plants can catch insects with their leaves, which are like a tall narrow wineglass, while some trap their victims with sticky tentacles(触手). And some growing in ponds and streams absorb their victims like underwater cleaners. Carniv

43、orous plants tend to grow in areas where the soil is very thin and lacks necessary nutrients. These plants must find other sources for the nutrients they need.Trapping and eating insects allows these unique plants to survive. Unfortunately, human and environmental factors continue to threaten the li

44、mited environments where you can find wild carnivorous plants.Still for many people, the thought of a plant eating an animal seems very strange. In fact, more than one person has turned the idea into a scary story or movie. Carnivorous plants dont pose any danger to humans, though. Unless youre the

45、size of a tiny insect, you dont have to worry about falling prey to a Venus flytrap.1、What can we learn about the Venus flytrap?AIt produces a special smell to attract insects.BIt is the most important carnivorous plant.CIt catches insects with its unique “jaws”.DIt is a kind of poisonous plant.2、Wh

46、y do carnivorous plants hunt animals for food?AThey try to reduce the harmful insects.BThey help keep the balance of nature.CThey need some nutrients to survive.DThey enjoy the taste of animals.3、Whats the challenge faced by carnivorous plants?ATrapping and eating them from human beings.BPoorer envi
