Ⅰ 阅读
I had an eating disorder when I was about 14. I went from being 5′4″ (5 feet 4 inches) and 130 pounds to 5′6″ and 94 pounds. I wanted to gain weight, so I ate anything I wanted and ended up at 5′8″ and 160 pounds. Then I had another eating disorder and went from 160 to 130 pounds at 5′9″. I started eating a lot again and ended up at 205 pounds. I was really close to obesity and was concerned about my health.
I decided to take action. I cut off many carbs. I ceased drinking sugary soft drinks which can make people gain weight quickly. I started eating more vegetables in my diet. My mom weighed 130 pounds two years ago. In order to lose weight, she gave up fast food and ate vegetables instead. She is now around 107 pounds. She succeeds in losing weight through eating more vegetables and less fast food. And that was why I started eating more vegetables. I also learned to eat less. Within 3 to 5 months I lost 55 pounds. I am still losing weight now but at a slower rate than that when I started changing my diet. I'm confident that my weight will drop to a normal level.
Do you also want to lose weight If you do, here is some advice for you. If you like eating sweet sugary things, then I would suggest you eat more fruits but with an empty stomach. If you dislike running like me, then I would recommend walking if you want to exercise. Here are some more tips. Do not eat too much at one time. Eat slowly and wait till your brain tells you that you're full. Look at nutrition facts on food items before you eat them and throw them away if they're unhealthy. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Spend more time on exercise.

Ⅱ 七选五
Want to feel healthier and have lots of energy each day 1 You don't have to make big changes in your lifestyle in order to improve your health. You can do it without actually noticing it. Read on to find out smart little things you should do to feel better every day.
Exercise
Probably the healthiest thing you can do to feel better each day is to exercise early in the morning. 2 Even doing several easy exercises like walking, sit ups or jumping the rope will help you feel better in no time! Plus, exercise is good for your health and waistline.
Get enough sleep
Again due to our busy schedules, we don't get enough sleep each night. If you have trouble falling asleep, avoid watching TV or surfing the Internet right before bed. 3
Stay productive
When you are productive, you feel happier. When you feel happier, you feel better. Stop watching TV, avoid gossips, and try to do more useful things during the day. 4 It will help you stay organized and accomplish your tasks with less stress.
Stay positive
I've always believed that positivity is the key to a longer life. 5 Life is full of stressful situations and it's hard to stay cheerful when everything goes wrong, but your positive attitude can help you solve any problem and fight any stress faster and more easily. Your positive attitude is especially good for your heart health. Smile, stay positive and live a longer life!
A.Don't forget to make your to-do list in the morning.
B.Also, don't drink tea or coffee too late in the day.
C.Few people can hold a positive attitude to their life.

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何保持健康的身体以及充沛的精力提出了四条建议。
1.G 文章给出了四条保持健康的建议,结合第一段的首句作者给出问句的意义可知,这里是提出解决问题的方法,G项中的“a few essential things you should do”是回答开篇问题的关键。
2.E E项中的“don't have to run a few hours or the whole morning”和下文介绍的简易运动都和第一个建议有关,故E项符合语境。
3.B 第二个建议是有关睡眠的,文中提到睡前应避免做哪些事,B项中的“don't drink tea or coffee too late”符合文意。
4.A 第三个建议是“保持高效率”,由该空后的“It will help you stay organized and accomplish your tasks with less stress.”可知,设空处应该是“高效的方法”,因此选A。
5.D 第四个建议是“保持积极的态度”,C、D两项都是有关积极的态度,但是文中没有提到其他人是否保持积极的态度,因此排除C项。D项说明了积极的思想与健康的关系,与文意相符。单元过关检测卷(三)

The Key to Your Health
A car needs gas to run and your body also needs food to work for you. Eating the right kind of food is very important. It can help your body grow strong, so take care of what you eat.
There are four main food groups altogether. The dairy group has food like milk, cheese and sour milk. The other three groups are the meat and fish group, the fruit and vegetable group, and the bread and rice group. Each meal should have at least one food from all four main groups. With all these food together, you will be given enough energy during the day.

(·广州市番禺区高二月考)In the UK, most children have their midday meal at school, but in many schools, parents can choose what their children eat. The children can have a school lunch—a hot, cooked meal; or they can take a packed lunch with them, which usually includes cold food like sandwiches.Often parents prepare lunches on the basis of what their children want. Cathy, a mother of three children, told us, “My children have packed lunches, because they say they hate school dinners. I make 3 packed lunches every morning, so we're like a sandwich bar in our kitchen in the morning.”
However, another mother, Susan, made her choice based on the nutritious (有营养的) value of the food. She said, “My daughter always has school dinners. I think she probably gets healthier food by having a cooked lunch at school than she would if I made sandwiches.”
But how healthy are school dinners Kaz, a father, wasn't impressed with them. “Fizzy (有泡沫的) drinks were offered and I think there were a lot of chips.”
The question of how healthy school food is was brought to Jamie Oliver, who launched a campaign to improve children's nutrition, after spending a year working in a school kitchen. The TV series about the campaign won an award this week.
He was worried about the junk food he saw being served, which included burgers, pizza and chips. He decided to ban the junk, and started cooking good stews (炖菜) and curries for the children instead.
Jamie improved the school dinners in that particular school, and trained the dinner ladies to cook healthy food. Then he put pressure on the government to improve the standards of school food across the country. And it looks as if the changes have begun.

7.The TV series about the campaign .
A.proved to be a failure
B.was created by lots of school children's parents

A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night's sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.
Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin (褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.
The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.
Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.
Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.
While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.
Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.
Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一项研究成果证明夜晚挤的牛奶因其含有更多的褪黑激素,更有助于人们的睡眠。

答案:B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Those given night milk ... were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime”可知,喂了白天挤的牛奶的老鼠会比喂了晚上挤的牛奶的老鼠更加焦虑。
9.According to the text, melatonin .
A.has been tested on mice for ten times
B.can make people more energetic
C.exists in milk in great amount
D.is used in sleeping drugs
答案:D 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night”可知,褪黑激素类药物对晚上入睡困难的人有帮助,而据此推知,褪黑激素可用来制作安眠药。
10.Nutritionists recommend skimmed milk as the best choice before bed because .
A.it contains the least fat
B.fat and sugar in it does good to health
C.the experiment on mice shows that it can cause sleepiness
D.drinking it gives people comfort
答案:A 细节理解题。由最后一段第一句“Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening.”中的关键词“the least fattening”可知,milk含有最少的脂肪。故选A。
11.How does the author support the theme of the text
A.By giving examples.
B.By stating arguments.
C.By explaining statistical data.
D.By providing research results.
答案:D 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要通过用早晚挤的牛奶对老鼠所做的实验结果证明夜晚挤的牛奶会加速睡眠和让睡眠时间更长。

(·通化市东昌区高二检测)Do you like to eat out Do you like to eat quickly Do you like inexpensive food
Some people go to fast food restaurant for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners (路边餐馆) for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reasons.
A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It wasn't really a diner. It was only a food cart (手推车). People on the street walked up to the carts to buy food. These carts served late night meals. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they didn't sit down, later people built diners with counters and stools, and people sat down while they ate.
Before long many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.
Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1990s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booth (公用电话), and tables and chairs. People can have all three meals in a modern diner.
Today, many people eat in fast food restaurant such as McDonald's and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了路边餐馆的起源、历史沿革和现状。

(·济南七中高二检测)Everyone knows that eating too much junk food is not good for our health. Yet, what is it about junk food that is so completely irresistible (无可抗拒的) For one thing, it's everywhere. 16 Thankfully, science is now providing new clues to help us reduce snacking.
Make friends with dainty (文雅的) eaters.
Studies have found that people tend to increase or reduce the amount of food they eat depending on what their companions are taking in. 17
See happy movies and always get the smaller bag of popcorn.
According to some experts, people eat up to 29% more popcorn if they are watching a sad or serious movie, compared to when they are watching a comedy. 18 Viewers consumed almost 200 calories more when snacking from a large bucket, as opposed to when given a medium-sized container.
19
Nutritionists have gone back and forth about the question of how much to eat in the morning, but new studies suggest that consuming a good breakfast is a must. Surveys on long-term weight loss show that two key factors in keeping weight down are eating breakfast and exercising.
Divide your food and conquer overeating.
20 Any kind of marker makes you aware of what you're eating and of portion size. Researchers advise reallocating (再分配) snack foods into small plastic bags. It sounds simplistic, but it works.
A.Eat breakfast.
B.Don't swallow your food but chew it properly.
C.So see comedy films so that you can eat less junk food.
D.Some snacks are bad for our health while others may be not.
E.Any kind of dividing your food into portions slows down your eating.
F.From chips in fast food restaurants to candy in supermarkets, junk food always seems available.
G.If the friends around them are dainty eaters, the amount of junk food eaten by them will be decreased.

18.C 上文提到悲剧电影会使得人们摄入垃圾食物的数量增多,再结合上一段可知,C项(所以看喜剧电影会使你减少垃圾食物的摄入)符合上下文语境。
19.A 下一段主要论述了早餐的重要性,故A项(要吃早饭)符合此段主旨。

篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。美国的一个电视节目让参与者互换身份,使他们从中学到了人与人之间要相互理解,换位思考。
36.called 考查非谓语动词。show与call之间是被动关系,故填过去分词作定语。
37.had dreamed 考查动词的时态。“梦想管理这所学校”是发生在参加这个电视节目之前的事情,属于“过去的过去”,故用过去完成时。
38.an 考查冠词。泛指“一名八年级学生”用不定冠词,eighth的发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
39.quickly 考查词性转换。修饰动词realized用副词。
40.had been imagined 考查动词的时态和语态。it(his dream job)和imagine之间是被动关系,用被动语态;而be imagined发生在realized之前,属“过去的过去”,故此处imagine用过去完成时的被动语态形式。

42.but 考查连词。根据前面的not only可知填but。
43.better 考查形容词的比较级。根据上一句的more fully可知此处用比较级better。
44.their 考查代词。one's own “某人自己的”是固定用法,故用they的形容词性物主代词形式their。
45.is 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。所填词是句子的谓语,主语是one thing, most participants eventually realize是thing的定语,又由语境可知应用一般现在时,故用is。

Blueberry Pie
Today Grandma and I are going to make a blueberry pie. We want to surprise Mom when she comes to pick me up. Mom loves blueberries as much as Grandma and I do. She especially loves blueberry pie.
I look into the refrigerator for blueberries. They are all gone. “We can't make a blueberry pie without blueberries,” I say.
“I guess we will just have to get more,” says Grandma. “Great!” I like getting blueberries as much as I like making the pie.
I put on my hat, and we get in the car. We drive past rows of houses. We drive past rows of stores. We drive and drive. At last I see the sign. Grandma sees it, too. “Nelson's Orchard,” says Grandma. She turns into the drive-way and parks the car on a patch of grass.
Mr Nelson is standing in a wooden booth. On the counter is a stack of buckets. Mr Nelson gives us each a plastic bucket. “There are still plenty of berries. Help yourself.”
We walk to a row of tall blueberry bushes. I look for big, round, dark-blue berries. I pull two from a branch and drop them into my bucket. Plop. Plop. All these blueberries make me hungry. “I wish I could eat them now,” I say.
“I know,” says Grandma. “So do I.”
Grandma and I move from bush to bush. At last Grandma says we have enough. We walk back to Mr Nelson. He weighs each bucket on a big metal scale, then pours the blueberries in a bag. Grandma pays Mr Nelson.
“Now?” I ask.
“Now,” says Grandma.
I take a blueberry from the bag and pop it into my mouth. It tastes sweet. I eat another and another. Grandma takes some, too.
We say good-bye to Mr Nelson. I snack on blueberries as we drive. Finally we are home.
I help Grandma make turkey sandwiches and blueberry smoothies for lunch.
Grandma looks in the bag of blueberries. “We have just enough for the pie,” she says. “No more eating.”
Paragraph 1:
We begin making the blueberry pie.
Paragraph 2:
We drive to the grocery store once more.

Paragraph 1:
We begin making the blueberry pie. I take out the butter from the refrigerator and put the salt on the desk in the kitchen, but there is no flour left in the home. How can a clever woman cook without any rice “I think we will have to buy some flour,” suggests Grandma. We have no choice but to go now. After all, we want to surprise my mom when she comes to pick me up.
Paragraph 2:
We drive to the grocery store once more. As Grandma parks the car, I enter and pay for the flour, while noticing the blueberries on that booth. “What if I could get more blueberries?” I hesitate and then off I go. Driving back, I see mom's car in the driveway. As we go inside, Grandma and I both stand still, with our mouths open wide. Mom is eating the last of blueberries in the bowl.Section Ⅳ Assessing Your Progress

Ⅰ 阅读
Many studies have hinted that alcohol, in moderation, can do a heart good. But new research suggests that moderate drinkers are no more likely than non-drinkers to have clear arteries (动脉).
The scientists looked at almost 2,000 patients who underwent CT test. Overall, there was no association between people's drinking habits and their heart diseases. Researchers said an advantage of the new study is that it used objective measurements.
“No prior studies have assessed the relationship between alcohol consumption and the presence of heart disease, ” said lead researcher Dr Julia Karady. “We could not find any relation between the presence of heart disease and alcohol consumption, ” Karady said. At the same time, she added, there was no evidence that heavier drinking raised the risk of heart disease.
However, groups like the American Heart Association (AHA) warn against excessive drinking, because it can raise blood pressure and contribute to heart failure and other problems.
In general, “moderate” is defined as no more than one glass of alcohol a day for women, and no more than two a day for men. But those studies do not prove that alcohol, itself, protects the heart—in large part because alcohol also carries risks.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。很多人认为每天适量饮酒有益心脏, 然而并没有具体的科学实验得出此结论。
1.Does the new research suggest that moderate drinkers are more likely to be healthier
A.Yes, it does.
B.No, it doesn't.
C.Not mentioned in the text.
D.All of the above.
答案:B 细节理解题。由第一段末句“But new research suggests that moderate drinkers are no more likely than non-drinkers to have clear arteries (动脉).”可知,新的研究表明,适度饮酒者可能不比不饮酒者的动脉更顺畅。故选B。
2.What is the advantage of the new study
A.The scientists looked at almost 2,000 patients who underwent CT test.
B.The new study used objective measurements.
C.No prior studies have assessed the relationship.
D.There was no evidence that heavier drinking raised the risk of heart disease.
答案:B 细节理解题。由第二段末句“Researchers said an advantage of the new study is that it used objective measurements.”可知, 研究人员说, 这项新研究的一个优点是它使用了客观测量的方法。故选B。
3.Why groups like the American Heart Association (AHA) are against excessive drinking
A.Because it can raise blood pressure and contribute to heart failure and other problems.
B.Because there is some evidence that it will raise the risk of death.
C.Because it can make you die immediately.
D.Because it will lead to blindness.
答案:A 细节理解题。由第四段可知,然而,美国心脏协会(AHA)等团体告诫人们不要过度饮酒,因为它可以使血压升高并导致心力衰竭及其他问题。
4.What is “moderate” defined in the text
A.No more than one glass of alcohol a day.
B.No more than two glasses of alcohol a day.
C.No more than three glasses of alcohol a day.
D.No more than one glass of alcohol a day for women, and no more than two a day for men.
答案:D 词义猜测题。由第五段第一句“In general, ‘moderate’ is defined as no more than one glass of alcohol a day for women, and no more than two a day for men.”可知,一般来说,“适度”定义为女性每天不超过一杯酒,而男性每天不超过两杯。
1.hint v. 暗示 2.assess vt. 评估;评定
3.excessive adj. 过分的;过度的
1.alcohol consumption 饮酒
2.there is/was no evidence that ... 没有证据表明……
Ⅱ 七选五
(·长治一中高二检测)Having a happier life is something we all always struggle for. One of the fundamental points of that is to be consistent in doing things that bring happiness. 1
Consider these 4 habits:
(1)Laugh in the middle of a busy day.
It's 3 pm on a Sunday afternoon and you're desperate to leave for school. On top of the homework, you're running close to super important deadline. 2 Just take a moment to laugh. You should laugh more often, especially on a busy day.
(2)Do not compare yourself to others.
Measure your own successes based on your progress and only yours. 3 No one is better than any one else.
(3)Find time to work out regularly and eat well.
Exercise can produce tons of feel-good hormones. 4 Feeding your body with whole and nutritious foods, on the other hand, can positively affect your body in both short and long term. Find time to schedule in a workout even if it's only thirty minutes and do something you love. Eat well because foods can help you stay focused and more energized, and happier as a whole.
(4)End each day with gratitude.
5 It might be something as small as a child's laugh or something as huge as a praise from the headmaster. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
A.All of our lives are unique.
B.Surround you with people who matter.
C.Don't blame everything not going your way.
D.Try to think you are better than anyone else.
E.Develop right habits to ensure we live a happy life.
F.These hormones can help avoid stress and depression.
G.Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened.
篇章导读:本文是一篇议论文。文章就如何健康快乐生活提出了四条建议。
1.E 设空处上一句提到要想有一个幸福的生活,最关键的是做事情要有连续性和一致性。下文则介绍了四种习惯。故此处填“培养好的习惯能使我们拥有幸福的生活”。
2.C 根据上文“下午3点钟,你拼命赶往学校,紧接着就是作业,你的作业就要到最后期限了。”可知,并不是一切事情都按你想要的样子进展的,故此处应提到“不要责备事情不尽如你意”。
3.A 本段大意为不要与别人比较。所以此处填“我们人生的全部都是独一无二的”。
4.F 根据上文的“hormones”一词可知选F。
5.G 根据下文所举的“小至小孩的笑声或大至校长的表扬”可知,这一天所发生的都不会再来了。所以把它们记下来不失为一个让人生幸福的好方法。
Ⅲ 读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
People become quite illogical (不合逻辑的) when they try to decide what can be eaten and what cannot. If you lived in the Mediterranean, for instance, you would consider octopus (章鱼) a great delicacy (美味佳肴). You would not be able to understand why some people find it repulsive. On the other hand, your stomach would turn at the idea of frying potatoes in animal fat—the normally accepted practice in many northern countries. The sad truth is that most of us have been brought up to eat certain foods and we stick to them all our lives.
No creature has received more praise and abuse than the common garden snails. Cooked in wine, snails are a great luxury in various parts of the world. There are countless people who, ever since their early years, have learned to associate snails with food.
My friend, Robert, lives in a country where snails are looked down upon. As his flat is in a large town, he has no garden of his own. For years he has been asking me to collect snails from my garden and take them to him. The idea never appealed to me very much, but one day, after a heavy shower, I happened to be walking in my garden when I noticed a huge number of snails taking a walk on some of my prize plants.
Paragraph 1:
It suddenly struck me that Robert had asked me for snails.
Paragraph 2:
Of course, I had forgotten all about the snails when Robert suddenly said that I must stay to dinner.

Paragraph 1:
It suddenly struck me that Robert had asked me for snails. They reminded me of the link between Robert and the great delicacy. Acting on a sudden drive, I collected several dozen, put them in a paper bag, and took them to Robert. Robert was delighted to see me and equally pleased with my little gift. I left the bag in the hall and Robert and I went into the living room where we talked for a couple of hours.Robert and I are both football fans, and we were fascinated about watching Coby and talking about football seasons. So time had been ignored at all.
Paragraph 2:
Of course, I had forgotten all about the snails when Robert suddenly said that I must stay to dinner. Snails would, of course, be the main dish. I did not fancy the idea and I reluctantly followed Robert out of the room. To my surprise, we saw that there were snails everywhere, they had escaped from the paper bag and had taken complete possession of the hall. I have never been able to look at a snail since then.Section Ⅴ Summary and Writing

(·东北师大附中月考) Mickey Mouse wants to help kids kick the junk food habit. The Walt Disney Company announced that it plans to advertise only healthier food to kids.
By now, all food and drink products that are advertised on its TV channels, radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat, sodium and sugar. Many food, such as fruit drinks, candy and snack cakes, won't meet the standard.
First Lady Michelle Obama called it a “game changer”. “Disney is doing what no major media company has ever done before in the US—and what I hope every company will do in the future.”
“This is a landmark, because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children,” says Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest. “This should be a real wake-up call to Nickelodeon (an American children's channel) and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”
But the company will still be able to advertise “better for you versions of products that are not perfectly nutritious”. Under the new standards, breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving, Wootan says. “That's a good step forward, but it's not perfectly nutritious.”
Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, says “Disney is making this move at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes, so that's why we should praise them.”
“Food marketing is really important because it shapes the way kids are fed,” Wootan says. “If we don't deal with food marketing to kids, we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”
Currently, a third of children are overweight, putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.
At its theme parks, Disney began offering healthier kids' meals serving carrots and other vegetables, fruit, low-fat milk and yogurt at meals, instead of fries and soft drinks.

When in Ireland do as the Irish do. And when it comes to food and drink be sure to try these local specialities (地方特色菜).
1)Baked Ham
Definitely not a poor man's dish, the traditional Irish ham was coated with sugar dressed with cloves and then baked until it was crisp on the outside tender on the inside.Generally it is served with boiled cabbage and cooked or fried potatoes. It is not everyday food even for the well-to-do but bargains can be bad at some pub restaurants.
2)Smoked Salmon
The most popular way to enjoy salmon is smoked either on bread with eggs or simply on its own with a salad on the side. Farmed salmon can be rather ordinary so wild salmon tends to be much higher.
3)Dublin Coddle
Dubliners often eat this on Saturday nights before they go out. It is a good basic dish made of chopped sausage and bacon cooked with onions and potatoes in beef stock. It is also easy to make in quantity and can be reheated the next day.
4)Soup of the Day
Advertised nearly everywhere it is usually served with bread and butter and is a very good value for a lunchtime snack. In a typical Irish way the question “What is the soup of the day?” will nine times out of ten be answered with a shrug and the word “Vegetables”. Pot luck is the order of the day.

In present-day China we can find two types of fast food: western food and Chinese food. However not until the recent decade has western fast food become popular in China. Before the first hamburger walked its way into the Chinese food market we had little idea about such terms as hot dogs, pizza, potato chips, let alone KFC and McDonald's. It is the reform and opening-up policy that has brought about the inter-flow of the food culture between China and the western countries.
Fast food, both Chinese food and western food has several advantages. In the first place fast food as is characterized by its name is fast. The food is always ready and fresh waiting for its customers. This saves people's precious time and consequently goes well with the tempo of life in modern society.
Secondly, it is very convenient. As we know fast food restaurants are much the same as cafeteria. Customers may feel free to help themselves to any variety
provided and eat to their hearts' content.
Thirdly, fast food restaurants are environmentally comfortable. Clean dishes, shiny tables, decent service and light music all stimulate people's appetite to eat more.The above mentioned advantages make fast food become rooted in almost all parts of the country and enjoy popularity among people. That's also why nowadays Singapore fast food and Turkish fast food have found their homes in China.
As every coin has two sides, fast food also has its disadvantages such as lack of nutrition and dull tastes. Nevertheless these are minor points compared with its advantages. Since most people agree with fast food it tends to grow more rapidly.

(·湛江市霞山区高二阶段检测) Imagine walking into a restaurant and being greeted by a robot instead of a human. And then, when you're seated, another robot comes to take your order and yet other robot cooks your food and brings it out to you. But now it has turned into reality in a Chinese restaurant called Dalu Robot. The restaurant has been a hit with customers who really want to see what the robots are able to do for them. The robots can also be seen in action in a video made at the restaurant and posted on YouTube.
The restaurants use eighteen different kinds of robots in all, and each is unique in what it can do. There are robot waiters taking orders and still others that bring the food and drinks to the table. And behind the scenes, there are robots that cook noodles and others that brew tea. It's all very mechanized, and uses other technologies as well, such as a conveyer built to present the meals on trays for the wait staff to carry to the table. Also, there is a special part of the floor with electronics that help the wait staff find their way around the restaurant and to keep track of which meals go to which patron.
One of them is even a robot dog to amuse the kids. Customers are greeted with the message “Earth Person, Hello, Welcome to the Robot Restaurant” and robots carry out all of the roles traditionally held by human beings, even stopping by to ask how things are going during the meal. And while they eat, patrons are entertained by a robot that sings, and even takes requests.
All of the robots have been made by one single company, Harbin Haohai Robot Company, though the company has many partners, including those working for the government. China has made a policy to make it the world leader in robotics technology, and if the little restaurant with robot staff is any indication, they're close, if not already there.

Diets have changed in China—and so too has its top crop. By the time of last year, the country 1 (grow)more corn than rice. Corn production has jumped nearly 125 percent over 2 past 25 years, while rice has increased only 7 percent.
A taste for meat is 3 (actual) behind the change: An important part of its corn is used to feed chickens, pigs, and cattle. Another reason for corn's rise: The government encourages farmers to grow corn instead of rice 4 (improve) water quality. Corn uses less water 5 rice and creates less fertilizer (化肥) runoff. This switch has decreased 6 (pollute) in the country's major lakes and reservoirs and made drinking water safer for people.
According to the World Bank, China accounts for about 30 percent of total 7 (globe) fertilizer consumption. The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture finds that between 2005—when the government 8 (start) a soil testing program 9 gives specific fertilizer recommendations to farmers—and 2011, fertilizer use dropped by 7.7 million tons. That prevented the emission (排放) of 51.8 million tons of carbon dioxide. China's approach to protecting its environment while 10 (feed) its citizens “offers useful lessons for agriculture and food policymakers worldwide,” says the bank's Juergen Voegele.
