29、d for you, she said on Monday. “The potato has had its knocks in the past. Of course it is not the Oxford English Dictionarys fault but we want to use another term instead of “couch potato because potatoes are naturally healthy. The OED says that “couch potato began as American slang, meaning “a per
30、son who spends his or her leisure time sitting around, especially watching television or video tapes. The Potato Council says its campaign is backed by dieticians (饮食学家) who say the vegetable is low in fat and high in vitamin C. Supporting the campaign, famous cook Antony Worrall Thompson said the v
31、egetable was one of Britains favorite foods. “Not only are they healthy, they are also convenient and yummy (美味). Life without potato is like a sandwich without a filling, he said. John Simpson, chief editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, said the dictionary first included the term “couch potato
32、in 1993 and said “dictionaries just reflect the words that society uses. Simpson said words were never taken out of the full-length dictionary, which includes some 650,000 words in 20 volumes. But little-used words can be removed from the smaller dictionaries to make way for newer ones. “If society
33、stops using words then they get taken out of the smaller word 6 / 13 dictionaries, he added. The first known recorded use of the expression “couch potato was in an article in Los Angeles Times, in 1979, Simpson said. Nigel Evans, a member of Parliament for the Ribble Valley in Lancashire, has made a
34、 motion in support of the campaign, highlighting the nutritional value of the British potato. 56British potato farmers wanted to _.

37、? AIt is connected with unfavorable meaning. BPotato should be used in the expression. CIt is borrowed from America English. DIt refers to a kind of person. B The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruits and green vegetables. It
38、is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say that when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to make special provisions to supply the missing vitamins. An example of the dangers of a restricted diet may be seen in the disease known as beri-beri, which used to make large numbe
39、rs of Eastern people who lived mainly on rice suffer. In the early years of last century, a Dutch scientist named Eijkman was trying to discover the cause of beri-beri. At first he thought it was transmitted by a germ (病菌) . He was working in a Japanese hospital, where the patients were fed on polis
40、hed rice which had had the outer coverings removed from the grain, it was thought this would be easier for weak and sick people to digest. Eijkman thought his germ theory was proved when he noticed the chickens in the hospital yard, which were fed on remains from the patients plates, were also showi
41、ng word 7 / 13 signs of the disease. He then tried to separate the germ, which he thought was causing the disease, but his experiments were interrupted by a hospital official, who ordered that the rice without coverings, even though left over by the patients, was too good for chickens. It should be
42、recooked for the patients, and the chickens should be fed on cheap, rough rice with the outer coverings still on the grain. Eijkman noticed that the chickens began to recover on the new diet. He began to consider the possibility that eating unmilled rice (糙米) somehow prevented or cured beri-beri-eve
43、n that a lack of some ingredient (成分) in the coverings may be the cause of the disease. Indeed this was the case. The element needed to prevent beri-beri was shortly afterwards separated from rice coverings and is now known as vitamin B. The milled rice, though more expensive, was in fact causing th
44、e disease the hospital was trying to cure. Nowadays, this terrible disease is much less common thanks to our knowledge of vitamins. 60.What does the underlined word restricted mean? A. balanced B. limited C. diverse D. complex 61.According to the passage, a good mixed diet . A. is suitable for losin
45、g weight B. should be only fruits and vegetables C. normally contains enough vitamins D. is often difficult to arrange 62.What do we know about the disease beri-beri? A. It killed large numbers of people. B. It resulted from lack of vitamins. C. It was transmitted by milled rice. D. It was caused by
46、 diseased chickens. 63 .What can be the best title of the passage? A. A Good Mixed Diet B. The Importance of Unmilled Rice C. The Dangers of Beri-beri D. The Importance of Vitamins C Disease, poverty, hate, loveCharles Dickens stories opened his readers eyes to the most important themes of his age.
47、Two hundred years on, his stories still speak volumes across the world, proving that Dickens legacy遗产 was far greater that just “great-literature.

49、 writer Leigh Hunt. The committee which ran the Conservative Party even held word 8 / 13 ordinary business meetings on Christmas Dayunthinkable in the West nowadays, when everyone but the most necessary workers takes at least three days off. Many people believe that Dickens popular descriptions of t
50、he festive period became a blueprint for generations to come. In his classic novel, A Christmas Carol, he not only put forward the idea of snow at Christmas, but also painted a picture of glowing warmth“home enjoyments, affections and hopes. In his biography of Dickens, Peter Ackroyd wrote: “Dickens
51、 can be said to have almost single-handedly created the modern idea of Christmas. “Dickens poverty Dickens was one of the first to take an honest look at the underclass and the poor of Victorian London. He helped popularize the term “red tape to describe situations where people in power use needless
52、 amounts of bureaucracy(官僚作风) in a way that particularly hurts the weaker and poorer members of society. “Dickensian has now become a powerful word for describing an unacceptable level of poverty.

When we allow our conflicts to control us, we behave as though getting rid of our predicaments (处境) is our only choice. Therefore, it doesnt really matter how we t
61、reat one another. For example, we say, “This person is causing trouble right now so I dont care about exercising patience, self-control, and loving kindness.
