17.Place:Find somewhere quiet and peaceful to write.This could be your bedroom,a park or a café.It should be relaxing to let you think freely.
    Read,read,read:Good writers read about other writers'work.They don't copy but they do learn a lot from them.
    Characters:Before you start writing,know your characters well.Your main character should be someone readers care about and have something in common with.For example,although Harry Porter can do magic,he's still a youngster with problems,like most of his readers.A main character should have at least one weakness.A perfect character will soon get boring and is difficult to care about.Fights are more exciting if the hero could lose or even die.
    Most stories have a"bad guy".They shouldn't be totally bad since that's not believable.Most people become bad because of something that happened to them in the past.
    Setting:Think about where and when your story is taking place,in the past,present or future.Most people write about places they know.If writing about the future,think carefully about how life will change.If writing about the past,find out what life was like then.Most people like reading about places they have never been to.
Plot:The plot is usually about trouble or a conflict that the main character has to face.The trouble or conflict can be with one or more other characters,or a situation,such as a plane crash.
Structure:Stories usually have this structure:
  1.Story starts happily.Reason for conflict soon comes out.
  2.Something bad happens.The main character must become a hero.
  3.The problem is solved in an exciting way.
  4.Everything usually ends happily.We know what will happen to all the main characters.
    Be creative:Think about each sentence and even each word.How can you make the story more exciting for readers?Make it different from other stories.
    Have fun:The best stories are written by people who love writing.Enjoy it!
42.Where is the best place to write the story?A
A.On a bench in a small garden.

2.The Enigma (謎)of Beauty
The search for beauty spans centuries and continents.Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4,000years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup.In 18th-century France,wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假發(fā))of long,white hair to make themselves attractive.Today,people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.
There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive:beauty is power.Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money,get called on more often in class,and are regarded as friendlier.
But what exactly is beauty?It's difficult to describe it clearly,and yet we know it when we see it.And our awareness of it may start at a very early age.In one set of studies,six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs.The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students.In the studies,the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.
The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers.In studies by psychologists,men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes,fuller lips,and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist.According to scientists,the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traits-the full lips,clear skin,strong shoulders-equal health and genetic well-being.
Not everyone thinks the same way,however."Our hardwiredness can be changed by all sorts of expectations-mostly cultural,"says C.Loring Brace,an anthropologist at the University of Michigan.What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another.Look at most Western fashion magazines:the women on the pages are thin.But is this"perfect"body type for women worldwide?Scientists'answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world.They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures.
For better or worse,beauty plays a role in our lives.But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another.Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing,it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single,uniform standard.Beauty really is,as the saying goes,in the eye of the beholder.
32.People's ideas about beautyA.
A.have existed since ancient times 
B.can be easily described
C.have little influence on a person's success
D.a(chǎn)re based upon strict standard
33.In Paragraph 3,the babies in the studyD.
A.were rated for their appearance
B.were entered in a beauty contest
C.were shown photos of a group of college students
D.were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones
34.The underlined word"traits"in Paragraph 4probably meansA.
A.qualities
B.measurements
C.judgments
D.standards
35.We can learn from the passage thatD.
A.the ideas of beauty vary as people grow up
B.the search for beauty is rooted in lack of confidence
C.the standards for beauty are based on scientific researches
D.the understanding of beauty depends on cultural backgrounds.

5.An increasing number of health,hunger,and sustainable (可持續(xù)的)agriculture groups today announced plans for Food Day-a nationwide campaign to change the way Americans eat and think about food.This nationwide campaign will encourage Americans around the United States to sponsor or participate in activities that encourage Americans to"eat real"and support healthy,affordable food grown in a sustainable,humane way.
Organizers expect Food Day inspires American people to hold tens of thousands of events in schools,college campuses,houses of worship and even in private homes aimed at fixing America's food system.A Food Day event could be as small as a parent organizing a vegetable identification contest at a kindergarten class-or as massive as a rally(集會(huì))in a city park,with entertainment and healthy food.Health departments,city councils and other policy makers could use Food Day to launch campaigns,hold hearings,or otherwise address communities food problems.
The campaign will advocate progress toward five central goals:
•Reducing diet-related disease by promoting healthy foods.The American diet is too low in fruits,vegetables,and whole grains and too high in fatty meat,soft drinks and salty packaged and restaurant foods-contributing to hundreds of thousands of premature deaths each year.
•Supporting sustainable farms and stopping subsidies to agribusiness.Billions of
federal dollars a year would be better spent helping environmentally conscious family
farmers than huge agribusiness operations.
•Expanding access to food and alleviating(緩解) hunger.Far too many Americans don't know where their next meal is coming from,or have access(方法) to fresh produce in their neighborhood.
•Reforming factory farms to protect animals and the environment.Farming of animals can and should be done without cruelty,and without degrading the quality of life.
    •Curbingjunk-food marketing to kids.Food companies should not be targeting children with foods that promote tooth decay,obesity and other health problems.
66.What is the best title of the text?B
A.Eat Real and Keep fit               
B.Food Day Campaign
C.How to Observe Food Day             
D.Food Problems in the USA
67.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?C
A.Food problems are not easy to deal with.
B.Food Day events should be held in public places.
C.People are invited to create their own Food Day events.
D.Kindergarten kids are unable to identify vegetables.
68.One of the purposes of Food Day is toD.
A.target children with junk food                          
B.operate more agribusiness
C.cancel a series of events                 
D.increase access to food
69.The underlined word"curbing"in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to"B".
A.enlarging        B.controlling      C.evaluating          D.providing
70.We can infer from the text thatA.
A.Food Day can be an opportunity to solve food problems
B.Food Day will not help preserve natural resources
C.Food Day has so far achieved all the central goals
D.there are different ideas and views about Food Day.
