There is a famous saying from the French politician J.A. Brillat-Savarin that goes: “Tell me what kind of food you eat, and I will tell you what kind of man you are.” It can be easy to not really think about what you eat. For example, whenever you go into a supermarket to buy a drink, it is all too easy to pick up an ice cream or a piece of chocolate as well. You might not even really want them, but sometimes their bright, nice packaging(包裝) can be too hard to refuse.
So, in our special food magazine we will show you why you should really pay more attention to what you eat! Food not only influences our health but also our beliefs, customs and personalities.

As China Daily reported in February, the number of obese people under the age of 18 in China has reached 120 million.
Jamie has worked for 10 years to try and fight this problem. Learning about food is important not just because of health problems but also because many people still don’t have enough food today. And we know as the improvement of science sometimes we have to face genetically modified (轉(zhuǎn)基因) food. Don’t worry – we’ll make you know more about all these topics in our special article! 
We’ll also tell you something interesting about food. For example, do you know what the largest food on the menu is all over the world? It’s the roasted camel and it has been served for several hundred years, often stuffed (填滿) with chicken, lamb, egg, fish and rice! 
Hopefully by the time you finish reading this edition(版本), you’ll pay more attention to the food that you eat. As Oliver says, food is something that can help us enjoy our life. It is important that we love it!

You wouldn’t steal a car. You would never rob (搶劫) a bank or pick someone’s pocket. But you may be another kind of thief.
If you have ever bought a disc for 15 yuan or less, then you have helped to rob artists or musicians of their intellectual properly rights (知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)).
Last Thursday was World Intellectual Property Day. Activities to tell people about intellectual property rights were held around the country.
Intellectual property includes inventions, literary (文學(xué)的) and artistic works, names, and pictures. They are of little value (價(jià)值) if they are not read, seen and used.
While the cost of copying discs is very small, authors, singers and actors have to spend a lot of money and time making a new product. That’s why they have the right to make money from their work.
So buying pirated (盜版的) music of Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai is like stealing from them, paying them no respect for their hard work.
If Jay Chou cannot make money from his work, he may not make anything else. But those who make pirated goods are becoming rich without doing any hard work.
The authors should ask for a fair price for their work. Earlier this year there was much talk about how much KTV clubs should pay the music companies for using their songs.
The copyright fee (版權(quán)費(fèi)) also should be fair to the users. That’s good for the music’s popularity and society as well.
小題1:What is the author’s attitude towards protecting (保護(hù)) intellectual property rights7
A．He is for it.B．He is against it.
C．He doesn’t care about it.D．The article doesn’t tell us.
小題2:Which of the following do intellectual property rights not cover?
A．Inventions.B．Literary and artistic works.
C．Names end pictures.D．Pirated music.
小題3:According to the article, which of the following is true?
A. Authors should ask for a high price for their work,
B, The copyright fee should ha fair to users.
C. Authors, singers and actors have no right to make money from their work,
D. Buying pirated music by Jay Chou is very good.
小題4:What is the best title for the article?
A．Rob a BankB．Copyright Fees
C．Say No to pirated MusicD．World Intellectual Property Day

Are you a gourmand(美食主義者)? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program?“A Bite of China(舌尖上的中國)” is a documentary on Chinese delicious food which has been broadcasted by Chinese central television. Is there any holiday that isn't celebrated with a special festival food? Here are several traditional Chinese foods:
Eggs hold a special meaning in many cultures, and China is no exception(例外). The Chinese believe eggs mean producing something new. After a baby is born, parents may hold a "red egg and ginger party," where they pass out eggs to announce the birth. In some areas of China the number of eggs represents the sex of the child, for example, an even number(1,3,5,---) for a girl, and an odd number(2,4,6---) if a boy has been born.
Noodles are a symbol of longlife in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with lit candles is in many countries. Since noodles represent long life, it is considered very unlucky to cut it off.
Although westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on a plate, in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact, at a party it is traditional to serve the whole fish last, pointed toward the valued guest. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for fish, yu, sounds like the word for richness or plenty, and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.
A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat Festival is Zongzi. This tasty dish is made of rice dumplings with meat, peanut or other delicious food in bamboo leaves. The tradition of Zongzi is meant to remind us of a great man, Qu Yuan.
The 50-minute program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural elements(元素),such as eating habits and the quality of eating.
小題1:A bite of China is _______________.
A．a(chǎn) bookB．a(chǎn) documentary
C．a(chǎn) guide bookD．a(chǎn) newspaper
小題2:How many kinds of traditional food are mentioned in the passage?
A．twoB．three
C．fourD．five
小題3:A girl has been born in Mr. Li’s home. How many red eggs may he pass out to his friends according to Chinese tradition?
A．two eggsB．none
C．three eggsD．six eggs
小題4:Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?
A．We can cut birthday noodles off in China if we think they are too long.
B．It is impolite to server a whole fish last at a party in China.
C．The program lasts for one hour.
D．There are many kinds of Zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival.
小題5:What does the writer mean in the last paragraph?
A．The writer thinks the program is too long.
B．The writer thinks the program has more meanings inside than the story itself.
C．The writer thinks everyone can have a good eating habit after watching the program.
D．The writer thinks the program has brought many kinds of delicious food to us.
