All the stores are selling them; everyone wants one. Steaming is one of the simplest and healthiest ways of cooking food. However, that cooking time is usually longer than with other methods. In case youre thinking of buying a steamer, Ive done a survey about the steamers available on the market to help you decide which will suit you bestFolding SteamerThe simplest and least expensive is the folding stainless-steel (不锈钢）versionAdvantages: This is a good, basic design which sits inside a variety of different shapes of pans with the water under it; a ring in the center allows for easy lifting and its easy to cleanDisadvantages: It only holds small dishes. Also, if you put too much water in the pan, it will boil up through the vegetables and they will be watery. If you put too little water in and let it get dry, you will burn the pan and get strange-smelling vegetablesSteaming PanThis is a three-layered black Teflon-coated version with a lid and two double-handled steamers, which sits on the oven ring. The brand I bought is called Nutritious LivingAdvantages: This is an excellent steamer, lightweight, easy to clean, and of all the steamers Ive tried, this cooks the fastest. Fish and chicken can be cooked on the bottom with rice or vegetables on the top. Its easier to storeDisadvantages: Water can boil away until the pan is dry, but if you make sure you fill the pan up to the suggested level and do not overcook the food, this should not happen. You cannot see the food cooking from the top. It doesnt supply a dish for cooking riceFor serious users of steamers, I remend having one of each version. If you just want to try it, get the folding stainless-steel type21. Why did the author carry out the survey?A. To inform people of different steamersB. To run an advertisement for steamersC. To find out a suitable steamer to buyD. To learn how to cook with steamers22. What can we learn about the folding steamer?A. It es in different kinds of shapes and sizes B. It is designed for large familiesC. It is able to clean itselfD. It is easy to take out23. The Nutritious Liuing steamer A. is more difficult to storeB. provides a dish to cook rice withC. cooks different foods at the same timeD. cooks fish and chicken faster than vegetables24. According to the author, you should A. use steamers to save cooking timeB. buy a steamer with dishes suppliedC. do a survey before choosing a steamerD. buy a folding steamer if you want to try BKnowing about yourself means not only that you find out what you are good at and what you like, it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you dont like. Both help you to see your aim in life.Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced maths course, they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They know that they should not bee engineers or physical scientists, and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life if he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work they would like to do.It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide you would like to play the violin，you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you have any interest or ability.It is not enough to want to be a great violinist. You also have to like the hard and long training before you bee one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist but hate the work, forget it.Its a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young, and then you will e to a wise decision.25. If you say you really know yourself， _. A. you know what you are good at B. you have got the whole picture of yourself C. you keep in mind your aim in life D. you have less you dont like than what you like26. Failing can turn into something good _. A. if you have aim in life and get the job you wish to have B. if you learn something from it C. if your decision is right D. if you lead a happier life27.The example of “playing the violin” in Paragraphs 3 and 4 implies that _. A. if you dont like music, dont practise the violin B. it takes more than one lesson to learn to play the violin C. you can decide only after you have tried. D. you can bee a great violinist only after hard and long training.28.The following are suggested by the writer except _. A. that people usually make hasty（仓促）decisions B. that the more experiences, the better decision you will have C. testing ideas, paring and then making the decision D. that you always have enough time before you e to a wise decision CIts good to make mistakes, and here is whyFirst of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. Its always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You cant”. Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new Another good thing about mistakes is this. When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt work Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded. Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer But this all doesnt mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again We all have limited resources in the form of time and money so dont blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and allocate （分配） these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career There is an old saying that goes, “If youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough” So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And prosper（成功）29From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _A. mistakes are unnecessary for developmentB. we are afraid of trying new thingsC. its mon for people to make mistakesD. mistakes are better than not trying30The underlined word “eliminate” means _A. avoid B. remove C. accept D. solve31According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is A. avoiding making the same mistakes B. accepting the punishment willinglyC. taking consequences into account D. trying things out one by one32What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?A. Never mind, I can always try again B. Id better stay out of troubleC. Ok! Now I can learn something D. Look at this mess. Anyone would be upset DSometimes you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you dont act on your impulse (冲动), but let it pass instead. You know that to take the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior. Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo behavior is how it can change over the years, how certain behavior and attitudes once considered taboo can bee perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have bee more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject. One of the newest taboos is the topic of fat. Unlike many other taboos, fat is a topic that people talk about constantly. Its not taboo to talk about fat; its taboo to be fat. The “in” look is thin, not fat. In the work world, most panies prefer youthful-looking, slim manager to sell their image as well as their products to the public. The thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self-discipline and self-respect. After all, how can people permit themselves to bee fat? In an image-conscious society, thin is in”, fat is “out”. It s not surprising that millions of people have bee obsessed (着迷) with staying slim and “in shape”. The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the only reason for peoples obsession with diet and exercise. Recent research has shown the importance of diet and exercise for personal health. As in most technologically developed nations, the life-style of people has changed since last century. Modern machines do all the physical labor. Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. As a result of inactivity and disuse, peoples bodies can easily bee weak. In an effort to avoid such a fate , millions of people are spending more of their time exercising. Parks are filled with joggers and bicyclists, and many panies are providing special exercise equipment for their employees to use during the work day. 33. What does the word “taboo refer to in the passage? A. Behavior considered unacceptable to the society B. An unfavorable impression left on other people. C. A strong desire to do something strange or terrible. D. A crime mitted on impulse.34. According to the passage, the mon belief is that _. A. fat people are full of energy B. thin people are more successful C. fat people prefer to have fat bosses D. thin people are less image-conscious35. People pay more attention to diet and exercise because of _.A. their need to kill time B. their love for sportsC. their concern for health D. their belief in hard work第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Decorate a ClassroomHow do you decorate a classroom? 36 A visually rich classroom can be inspiring, weling, and supportive of student learning.
