Then the boss called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone selling watermelon in the market.

It’s hard to believe that there could be many similarities between the way we eat today and the diet and eating habits of ancient Romans. However, the ancient Roman towns of Pompeii shows to us that there is at least one thing in common. Romans enjoyed convenient ways to get their food and ate on the go, just as we do today.
Buying bread is one example of a convenience in ancient as well as modern world. Most people today buy bread in a store. There is evidence (证据) that Romans bought their bread, too, rather than baking it themselves. A large wall painting in Pompeii shows customers buying bread in a shop. Archaeologists (考古学家) have found more than 30 shops that may have bakeries. Signs on walls showed to Roman shoppers that certain vendors (小贩) sold bread. In addition to these discoveries, archaeologists found that few homes in Pompeii had ovens, which suggests that most people did not bake at home.
Ancient Romans also had a version of take-out food. Pompeii was filled with shops that contained dishes to hold or display food. Many shops had built-in stoves that allowed them to cook and serve food.
Archaeologists have also found many houses with small grills (烤架). However, few of these houses had sets of dishes. Taken together, these pieces of evidence suggest that Romans had a quick bite to eat at home, right off the grill, or bought a meal to get home. Sounds familiar?
( )36. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Food shops and stores.
B. Favourite foods.
C. Cooking and eating habits.
D. Cities and homes.
( )37. What way of eating did Romans like more?
A. Eating on the go.
B. Eating in the restaurant.
C. Eating at home.
D. Eating less and more simply.
( )38. The meaning of the underlined word “bakeries” is 　　　 in Chinese.
A. 糖果屋 B. 面包房
C. 药店 D. 熟食区
( )39. Which of the following for ancient Romans would most likely not apply to people today?
A. Having a home without ovens.
B. Buying bread from a bakery.
C. Getting a take-out meal.
D. Having grills but no dishes.
( )40. How are people today like ancient Romans according to the passage?
A. People today eat meals together in a family.
B. People today eat foods that someone else prepared.
C. People today spend a lot of money on take-out food.
D. People today cook food at home when they have time.
C
Dear TF,
I’m sad and sorry to hear that you and your friends fight so much. Actually, when I read your letter it sounded like these people weren’t your friends at all. Friends don’t fight like cat and dog.
Now, I’m giving my advice to you.
First, you need to sit back and really think long and hard about these friendships of yours. Like I said, it really doesn’t sound like you guys are good friends at all, fighting so much. Good friends won’t be in the terrible cycle of fighting. I think it’s time for you to look for better friends.
And if you still believe this group of girls are the right friends of yours, you should quickly throw off your attitude (态度) of hate and blame and start acting like a good friend to them. You should treat others the way you want to be treated yourself. If you stop fighting with everyone and you’re nice to everyone around you, you’ll be surprised to see that your friends will start treating you with the same kindness and respect. And if they don’t, well, I’ve proved my case — they aren’t your real friends at all.
Best wishes,
Dr. Wang

A. 逗弄猫狗 B. 狗猫争斗
C. 争吵不休 D. 爱护猫狗
( )44. What should TF do first if she wants to solve her problems?
A. Think about who are the right friends.
B. Check her own behavior.
C. Ask her teacher for help.
D. Stay away from the present friends.

One possible version:
The clone in the world
This week we learned something about clone at school. I’m very interested in it. Clone is a copy of oneself. But we can only make clones from living DNA. Cloning will change our world. We can make new things by cloning such things as plants and animals. Scientists have cloned lots of things. In some ways, I think it will be helpful to human beings. But some of my students don’t think so. They think cloning may be bad for us. Everything has two sides. How to use it is very important. What’s your idea?
