26、   The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and the environment. These findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.

David Tilman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized(工业化), the population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.

The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk of non-infectious diseases like diabetes(糖尿病) and heart disease.

Unfortunately when people adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one per cent to 10 per cent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20-year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on.

And, a diet bad for human beings, is also bad for the environment. As the world's population grows, more forests and tropical(热带的) areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gases in the future from agriculture than those coming out of all forms of transportation right now.

Mr Tilman calls the link between the diet, the environment and human health “a trilemma”: a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible settlement is leaving the Western diet behind.

【1】We can infer from the passage that   .

A.Nigeria has the largest number of diabetes cases

B.overweight people are at higher risk of infectious diseases

C.the examined information comes from developing countries

D.industrialization contributes to the spread of the Western diet

【2】According to the passage, more greenhouse gases might be given off in the future from   .

A.transportation B.developing countries C.agriculture D.developed countries

【3】David Tilman believes that   .

A.the diet, the environment and human health are closely connected

B.the Western diet is the only choice as the nation industrializes

C.people in tropical areas are more likely to have heart disease

D.traditional diets are more balanced than the Western diet

【4】What's the main purpose of writing the passage?

A.To call on us to protect the environment.

B.To warn us of the danger of the Western diet.

C.To remind us of the importance of health.

D.To advise us to have a balanced diet.

27、How to Keep a Relationship Healthy and Strong

Are you new to experiencing relationships? Well, let me give you advice on having a healthy and possibly long-term relationship.

Be an honest person with them. 【1】 Don’t be afraid to say things that isn’t very flattering about yourself. Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship. If there’s no trust, there’s nothing there. So please be honest and they’ll learn to open up to you.

Make sure you give them respect. Now respect isn’t just simply treating her or him nicely. There’s a lot more to it. You have to learn to adjust to their liking. 【2】 Don’t just think about yourself, think about what your partner needs out of it as well.

【3】 Always be willing to help them and give them honesty and positivity at the same time. Make them feel you are someone they can really count on and build a future with. This is an important step in a relationship. Your partner has to be able to count on you when needed.

Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them. Laughter is the key to happiness. Laugh a lot with them, joke with them. Laughter may seem silly, but it’s the secret to a lot in life. It will keep the sparks alive. 【4】

Make sure the communication is good. This goes along with trust, but always communicate how you feel, even if it’s something that upsets you. Instead of screaming, talk to them. 【5】 It’s important to communicate this to them, not keep it bottled up.

A.Show them your personality.

B.Do not hide things from them, do not lie.

C.Make sure you are encouraging to your partner.

D.Laughter keeps the relationship strong and lasting.

E.You can neglect them and make them feel unwanted.

F.Basically, learn to study your partners’ moods, wants and needs.

G.If they did something that made you upset, tell them about it in a respectful manner.

28、   It’s not easy for disabled people to do what they want to do. But one day in the not-too-distant future, advanced versions of devices could make life easier for many such people. Take, for example, someone who has lost the use of his/her hand. That’s a problem more common than most people realize, says Kyu Jin Cho. He’s a mechanical engineer at Seoul National University in Korea. About 500,000 people end up in a wheelchair each year. Of those, around half also suffer injuries to their hands, Cho notes. And that number doesn’t include the people who suffer injuries just to their hands.

To deal with this, Cho and his team have designed a glove made from a flexible, rubberlike material. It has three fingers that fit over the wearer’s thumb, index finger and middle finger. Wires attached to those fingers can be moved by a small motor. The motor, controlled by a simple switch (开关), pulls on the wires to open and close the hand. The result is a glove that can help people hold objects tightly.

Cho’s group calls its invention the Exo-Glove Poly. Exo is from the Greek for “outside”. It refers to the fact that this glove is worn outside the user’s body. Poly, the Greek for “many”, refers to the fact that the glove’s rubberlike material is a polymer.

Other researchers have designed gloves that pick up nerve impulses (神经冲动) from a user’s arm muscles to help control a glove’s movements. But those earlier devices were relatively complex. If produced, they would be costly, notes Cho. People who have tested the Exo-Glove Poly like its simplicity, he says. Another benefit: It’s waterproof. That means users can wash their hands or clean dishes while wearing it. The glove also can be removed and washed when it gets dirty.

Often it takes years from when an engineer first has an idea to the time a useful product becomes available for sale. That delay can be especially frustrating when the device is intended to help someone who is disabled. But a new engineering competition might help speed innovations (新发明) from the lab to the people in need.

It is called Cybathlon. This is a contest for cyber-systems. This event is intended to promote new and more muscle-assisting research across medicine, robotics, engineering and chemistry. Now, Cybathlon is held every four years. But if it is successful, maybe it could be held every two years. Expanding the number of events would be very useful, says Cho. People have many sorts of disabilities, he notes. The more events there are, the more people that the competitors could eventually help.

【1】What Kyu Jin Cho says in Paragraph 1 mainly shows that________.

A.disabled people can’t do what they want

B.a lot of people are limited to a wheelchair

C.hand injuries haven’t drawn enough attention

D.many people need devices to help their hands move

【2】What do we know about the device designed by Cho and his team?

A.It is controlled by a computer.

B.It requires its user to have five fingers.

C.It aims at helping people move around.

D.It mainly helps people move their fingers.

【3】Compared with other similar devices, the Exo-Glove Poly________.

A.is much more flexible B.is simpler to operate

C.is much more complex D.is less convenient to use

【4】What would be the best title for the passage?

A.The disabled are in need of assistance

B.New devices are coming to assist the disabled

C.Mechanical engineers are working on new devices

D.A new glove has been invented to help the disabled

32、阅读短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要，

Recently, Children should eat their meals and snacks at home during the outbreak of the covid-19 （新冠病毒）,which means not only adding a new stress （压力）for parents （eg, a lot more cooking!）, but also providing a new chance for parents to teach children cooking skills.

Helping children develop an interest in cooking when they're young can help them have the valuable life skill that they can carry into adulthood. Allowing children to help in the kitchen encourages them to learn where food comes from, and teaches them about nutrition and food safety （e.g., the importance of washing fresh produce with clean water, or hand-washing before and after helping in the kitchen）. Doing so may also help children overcome picky eating by becoming more accepting of new foods. What's more, cooking and baking can be fun ways to spend time while bonding with family.

The key is finding tasks that suit children's age and ability, while still guiding and monitoring their progress. Activities that may attract a preschooler's interest in cooking include helping to wash fruits and vegetables and add toppings to a pizza. Older children can be given tasks such as measuring ingredients into cups or beating eggs. Proper cooking skills to introduce to the children aged between 8 and 10 include planning a family meal or following a simple recipe （食谱）.By ages 10 to 12} once able to follow kitchen safety rules, many children can prepare more recipes, including meatballs, cookies and cupcakes.

Getting children to take part in kitchen activities may require patience as they learn. That's why it's helpful to have some extra time at home.
