24、By now, most people know they should be eating more vegetables. But are there ways to get more from the vegetables you already eat? A research shows that when it comes to vegetables, it’s not only how much we eat,but also how we prepare them, that decides the vitamins(维生素) and other nutrients（营养物）that enter our body.

Many studies show that people who eat lots of vegetables have less heart disease, and eye problems and even cancer. But raw(生的) vegetables are not always best. The researchers found that 198 Germans who eat raw food were short of lycopene（番茄红素）, the matter found in tomatoes and other red vegetables. “There is an idea that raw foods are always going to be better,” says Steven K. Clinton, a professor at Ohio State University. “For fruits and vegetables, sometimes a little bit of cooking can be helpful.”

Many facts decide how the vegetables do good to people’s health before they reach the table, including where and how they were grown and stored before being bought. No single cooking way is best. Some nutrients are easily lost in cooking if they are cooked in different ways.

Vitamins C and B are often lost. In January, another report said that boiling（煮）was better for carrots than frying（油炸）or serving them raw. Frying was the worst way to cook.

What cooked with the vegetables can also be important? When the vegetables were cooked with fat, the diners can get more nutrients. Fat can also make the taste of vegetables better, meaning that people will eat more of them. Putting on some other things that make it taste better—a little salt—can make the food taste better.

【1】The writer mainly wants to tell us that .

A. eating vegetables is good for us

【2】The people who eat the raw vegetables for a long time will .

C. fried vegetables   D. boiled vegetables

【4】The followings decide how the vegetables do good to people EXCEPT according to the passage.

A. the place where the vegetables are grown

B. the way how the vegetables are stored

【5】From the last paragraph, we can know .

A. it’s better to cook the vegetables with the fat

B. it’s better to cook the vegetables without salt

C. the fat will increase the nutrition of the vegetables

D. the more fat in the cooking, the fewer vegetables people will eat

25、British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sahar and Bobby Green, became young millionaires (百万富翁) when they opened a chain of American-style (美国风味的) coffee shops in the U.K.

Having the idea: It started when Sahar took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sahar told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they start their own coffee shop. Sahar fell in love with the idea.

Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap in the market.” In November 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.

Making it work: The first year was very difficult. There were problems finding and keeping staff, and British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has revenues (收入) of ￡30 million a year.

Advice for others: Sahar has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses. She believes success is 1% idea and 99% hard work, but she says, "If you think you have the energy, then get out and follow your dream."

26、Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy, because they feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told to study hard so that they can live a wonderful life. However, many of the students have tried very hard at school but have failed their exams. These students feel sad, and they don’t want to go to school anymore. They easily become dropouts (辍学者). Such students may join the groups of trouble-makers and turn to crime (犯罪). Though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and it is the teachers’ job to help their children. A lot of parents also send their children to other schools in evenings or on weekends, but these only help the students to pass their exams and never teach the students how to understand life and the world. Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything, from the students’ hair to their clothes and the things in their schoolbags. Many child psychologists (儿童心理学家) now think that the rules are too strict and harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong, or how to show love for others, even for their parents at school.
