These colorful and sweet jewels from British Columbias fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antio*idants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into Vitamin A and which are antio*idants. As for cherries(樱桃), they are so delicious who care? However, they are rich in Vitamin C.When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an e*cellent base for thick, cooling fruits shakes and low fat “ice cream. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “Soft-serve creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a childrens party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.24.What does the author seem to like about cherries?A.

But the amount of time spent in reading each session had declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as e*amples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.At the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take the chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.28.What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A.Childrens reading habits.B.Quality of childrens books.C.Childrens after-class activities.D.Parent-child relationships.29.Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun?A.In paragraph2B. In paragraph3C. In paragraph4D. In paragraph530.Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A.E-books are of poor quality.B.It could be a waste of time.C.It may harm childrens health.D.E-readers are e*pensive.31.How should parents encourage their children to read more?A.Act as role models for them.B. Ask them to write book reports.C. Set up reading groups for them.D. Talk with their reading class teachers.DWeve been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.Whats the problem? It is possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. Its more likely that none of us start a conversation because its awkward and challenging, or we think its annoying and unnecessary. But the ne*t time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. E*perts say its an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we cant forget that deep relationships wouldnt even e*ist if it werent for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease (润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indian University Southeast. “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk, he e*plains. “The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction (互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop e*perience. “Its not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband, say Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.Dunn believes that people who research out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. “Small talk is the basis of good manners, he says.32. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?A. Addiction to smartphones.B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.C. Absence of communication between strangers.D. Impatience with slow service.33. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?A. Showing good manners.B. Relating to other people.C. Focusing on a topic.D. Making business deals.34. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?A. It improves family relationships.B. It raises peoples confidence.C. It matters as much as a formal talk.D. It makes people feel good.35. What is the best title for the te*t?A. Conversation CountsB. Ways of Making Small TalkC. Benefits of Small TalkD.

With such busy lives, it can be hard to try and find the time to work out.36 Working out in the morning provides additional benefits beyond being physically fit.lYour productivity is improved. E*ercising makes you more awake and readyto handle whatever is ahead of you for the day.37lYour metabolism(新代谢) gets a head start.38If you work out inthe mornings, then you will be getting the calorie(卡路里)burning benefits for the whole day, not in your sleep.l39 Studies found that people who woke up early for e*ercise slept better than those who e*ercised in the evening.
