The evidence, a napkin resting on top of the sandwiches packed in wax paper, was certain “Love you!” she had written on the napkin. “Meat loaf for supper!” Mom penned all kinds of messages to Dad on those paper napkins, and he saved a whole pile of them. What embarrassed me as a kid has bee a precious memory of my parents. It also started my own brand of lunch box notes. When my kids were young, Id glue little drawings on their lunches. Lots of sketches(素描) of our dog, Max, along with smiling flowers. When they were teenagers, Id copy words of wisdom from great people, Einstein, for example, or Bruce Springsteen. Then, my kids grew up making their own handwritten notes. And my husband writes me love notes on recycled paper, because hes all about being green. Friends who know about my lunch box notes eagerly share stories of their own family traditions. So many focus on food. Mauras mom always drew hearts on the shells of hard-boiled eggs. Melinda wrote messages on her kids bananas. Were into the third generation of lunch box notes in our home. Whenever my 3-year-old grandson, Clayton, spends the night, he knows his lunch is going to have a napkin note from Grandma in the morning. Last week, I drew a picture of me, waving widely and shouting his name. He took one look at it and screamed, “Wheres Grandpa?” I added a man in a clean shirt. “You forgot his tie,” he said. I quickly drew a line of stripes(条纹) down the front of the shirt. Clayton smiled. “Grandpa,” he whispered, running his fingers across the napkin. “Its you!”lcyzgssy. 21.

B Something in chocolate could be used to stop coughs and lead to more effective medicines, say UK researchers.Their study found that theobromine, found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present.The Imperial College London researchers who published their results online said the discovery could lead to more effective cough treatment. “While coughing is not necessarily harmful, it can have a major effect on the quality of life, and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem,” said Professor Peter Barnes.Ten healthy volunteers were given theobromine, codeine or placebo, a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill. The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin, which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicine are stopping coughs.The team found that, when the volunteers were given theobromine, the capsaicin need to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group. When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levers of capsaicin to cause a cough pared with the placebo.lcyzgssy.The researchers said that theobromine worked by keeping down a verve activity(神经活动), which caused coughing. They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments, theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness.25. According to Professor Barnes, theobromine _.A. cannot be as effective as codeineB. can be harmful to peoples healthC. cannot be separated from chocolateD. can be a more effective cure for coughs26. What was used in the experiment to cause coughing?A. Theobromine. B. Codeine. C. Capsaicin. D. Placebo.27. We learn from the text that volunteers in the experiment _.A. were patients with bad coughsB. were divided into the three groupsC. received standard treatmentsD. suffered little side effects28. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Codeine: A New Medicine B. Chocolate May Cure CoughsC. Cough Treatment: A Hard Case D. Theobromine Can Cause CoughsC Nancy Tillmans wonderful On the Night You Were Born is one of my very favorite books. Its celebration of the uniqueness of each and every child told in lyrical language makes it the gift I choose most often for expectant or adoptive parents. I also read it regularly with my grandchildren and talk with them about how special they are. Tillman feels that the most important message for children to receive is simply, “You are loved.” And its that message that is the focus of this, her newest book, Wherever You Are: My Love Will Find You. Once again, it is her turn of phrase that most fascinates me: In the green of the grass . in the smell of the sea . in the clouds floating by . at the top of a tree . in the sound crickets make at the end of the day . “You are loved. You are loved. You are loved,” they all say. Phrases encourage children to grow, to try new things, to “march to the front” of their “own parade” and assures them that, no matter how far they go or what they do, they will be loved. Though the words alone would convince me to buy, share and remend this book, Tillman is also a gifted artist and her lovely work makes this book a visual treasure as well. Through the pages, a child rides hippos, splashes in the surf with elephants, plays hide and seek with rabbits, shares a trampoline(蹦床) with a kangaroo and enjoys some quiet time with a pair of pandas. My favorite drawing has the child walking away along a wide path that runs between trees covered in mist. In all of the drawings, swirls of sparkling lights wrap around the child-the love that will always be with him/her. Ive read On the Night You Were Born dozens of times and with every single reading, I am incredibly touched. Wherever You Are: My Love Will Find You creates the same feeling of wonder, peace and happiness in me. Its a keep-forever book and Im so happy to have it in my collection to share with the children I love most.29. The purpose of this passage is to _.

DThe drawings in Wherever You Are convey love with pictures involving animals.D A new University of Graz study concludes that vegetarians(素食者) are more often ill and have a lower quality of living than meat-eaters. According to the German press release, vegetarians “have cancer and heart attacks more often”. The release also says that they show more psychological disorders than meat eaters. Consequently, the report writes, they are a greater burden on the health care system. According to the press release the scientists evaluated data from the Austrian Health Interview Survey (AT-HIS), which is also part of an important and valuable EU survey (European Health Interview Survey). The scientists examined a total of 1320 persons who were divided up into 4 groups. All groups were parable with respect to gender, age, and socio-economic status. The study also accounted for smoking and physical activity. Also the BMI was within the normal range for all four groups. The only thing that really was different among the four groups was the diet. The four groups were: vegetarians, meat-eaters with lots of fruit and veggies, little meat-eaters and big meat-eaters. The press release states that the results contradictthe mon clichthat meat-free diets are healthier. Vegetarians have twice as many allergies as big meat-eaters, and they showed 166% higher cancer rates. Moreover, the scientists found that vegans had a 150% higher rate of heart attacks. In total the scientists looked at 18 different chronic illnesses. pared to the big meat-eaters, vegetarians were hit harder in 14 of the 18 illnesses. In the analysis, the University of Graz found that vegetarians were also twice more likely to suffer for anxiety or depressions than big meat-eaters. That result was confirmed by the University of Hildesheim, which found that vegetarians suffered significantly more from depressions, anxiety, psychosomatic plaints and eating disorders. The University of Graz scientists also found that vegetarians are impacted more by illnesses and visit the doctor more frequently. Big meat-eaters were also found to have a “significantly better quality of life in all categories”, the study found. The four categories examined were: physical and psychological health, social relationships and environment-related life quality.32. What was the difference between the four groups in the experiment? AGender, age and socio-economic status. BDiet. CSmoking and physical activity.DBMI.33. What does the underlined phrase “the mon clich” refer to?

Food waste, which has bee a global issue, serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues in different countries. In the West, for instance, consumerism, the belief that its a good thing to use a lot of goods and services, is often to blame for food waste. 38 Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food. On campus, a generation of single children is less aware of the food waste issue. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil (辛劳) others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat. 39 There are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas. They dont have enough food to eat. Many children die for lack of nutrition each year in some African countries. And farmers work very hard to grow the crops. 40 Its also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste. AStudents waste is extremely serious. BChina, in turn, features its own eating culture. CStudents can never realize the serious food crisis. Dpared with them, some live in a different world. E. But canteen waste is merely the tip of the iceberg. F. So theres no excuse that we should waste our food. G. Most of us would simply throw away any leftover food.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Several years ago, while attending a munication course, I experienced a most unusual process.
