If someone saw you drop it, he or she might have shouted, “5-second rule!” This socalled rule says food is OK to eat if you pick it up in five seconds or less. But is that true?Professor Anthony Hilton from Ashton University, UK, tested the rule with his students. They found that food dropped for five seconds is less likely to contain bacteria(细菌) than if it sits there for longer.For the study, Hilton and his students tested a lot of foodsbread, pasta, cookies and candyto see how much bacteria they had when they made contact with the floor. They allowed the food to lie on the different types of flooringcarpet(地毯), laminate (复合地板) and tile(瓷砖) for three seconds to 30 seconds.Not surprisingly, the longer the food was on the floor, the more bacteria it had. And the type of floor where the dropped food landed had an effect. Bacteria are least likely to transfer(转移) from carpet, while they are most likely to transfer laminate or tiled surface after more than five seconds.The study also found that the wetter the food, the more likely it was to pick up bacteria. Although most people are happy to follow the 5-second rule, eating food dropped on the floor still carries an infection(感染) risk. “It very much depends on which bacteria are on the floor at the time.” Hilton told Forbes.（1）What is the “5-second rule mean?A . People often shout at someone when they drop food on the floor.B . Food is safe when you pick it up off the floor in less than five seconds.C . Its better to eat dropped food when its been on the floor for over five seconds.D . Food will go bad when dropped food on the floor in five seconds or less.（2）Where is Ashton University?A . In the USAB . In EnglandC . In ChinaD . In France（3）Hiltons test wanted to find out_.A . if the “5-second rule” is trueB . the students favorite foodC . which food is easily droppedD . if different types of floor have different bacteria（4）According to the test, we learn the following EXCEPT _.A . the dropped food had more bacteria if it sat on the floor for longer.B . the dropped food on the carpet had the least bacteria.C . bacteria was impossible to transfer from laminate or tiled surfaces.D . the wetter food was likely to pick up bacteria.（5）According to the article, the infection risk of the dropped does NOT depend on _.A . how long the food sits on the floorB . what the dropped food isC . what the bacteria areD . what the weather is like that day20. （20分）Here is a dog with a lantern (捉灯)in his mouth, he is looking for his master(主人).Carlo, a lovely dog, had been taught to be useful. The roads, in the place where his master lived, were often so bad that it was not safe for any person to go out without a light on dark nights.So Carlos master taught him to carry a lantern for him at night; and he did it as steadily(稳固地) as any boy could have done.Carlo never trotted(小跑) too far before his master so that the bright light of the lantern might guide his masters steps.When he came to a deep rut(车辙)or hole in the road, he would turn round to his master, seemed to say, Take care, there is a hole here. The dogs master lived about a mile from the town; and when he could not get home before dark, Carlo used to be sent to him with the lantern. Carlo knew where to go. He also knew the road which his master would take.But Carlo didnt always find his master right away. When he reached the town, he would run off to a house where his master often was. Still holding his lantern, he would scratch at the street-door with his feet and bark(吠叫); as much as to say, 6/Here am I,Master, with the lantern, are you ready for home? Someone would perhaps come to the door and say, 6/Your master is not here. Carlo would growl(嘟哝), seemed to say, Then he is somewhere else, and I must find him.

It is the movie capital of the world. And it is also one of the tourist destinations (目的地) in America. In 1911 the small, peaceful village of Hollywood in California was voted to become part of Los Angeles (洛杉矶). Today, over 100 years later, this village has grown into the home of one of the most well-known industries in the world the American film industry.With this growth came many well-known symbols. There is the famous Hollywood sign which stands above the hills of the town. The first sign was built in 1923. Then there is the Hollywood Hall of Fame (名人堂), where great actresses, actors and directors leave their footprints or handprints. Norma Talmadge was the first actress to do this in 1927. But the most famous of all is the Oscar Academy Awards. Every spring, a large number of actresses, actors and directors wait excitedly and nervously to find out if they have won an Oscar. This year was the 85th Oscar Academy Awards. It was held on February 25 in Los Angeles. Ang Lee, a Chinese director, won the Award for Best Director again. It was the second time he had won the Award.Nowadays it is the home of films, and thousands of hopeful young actresses, actors, writers and directors still come to the Dream Factory every year. But not all Hollywood dreams have been happy ones as one actress, who later died tragically (悲惨地), said, Hollywood is a place where they will pay you 500 dollars for a kiss, and 50 cents for your soul (灵魂).HollywoodA brief (简要)introduction to Hollywood Its the home of the film _.
