Id have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me. One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, Id drunk the entire container! My mom called my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain I had diabetes (糖尿病), which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high. That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood?鄄sugar level. My eating habits had to change in a big way. With diabetes, I cant eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (碳水化合物). I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin (注射胰岛素) before the meal to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood?鄄sugar level often. Im always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesnt keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to. Its a lot of work and not a lot of fun to keep track of everything, but Ive gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasnt sure how my life would change. Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasnt a big deal. My life is different now from what it was before, but it has bee pletely regular to me. 56.

Positive.B The English translations of the names of traditional Chinese dishes on menus across the country have caused public discussion about the precision (准确) of the translations. Since more and more foreigners e to China every day, many restaurants around China are providing English translations of their menus. They want to make it easier for foreign visitors to order Chinese dishes when they travel. Some restaurants also hope that the translations will increase foreigners knowledge of Chinese cuisine (烹饪). But an article in China Youth Daily says the English menu translations have not lived up to public expectations. It argues most of the English names of Chinese dishes lack the cultural meaning and attraction of the dishes they describe. Instead, the translations only provide a list of each dishs ingredients, the article notes. For example, one English name of a Chinese dish appears as “Stir-fried mutton slices with Chinese onion or green scallion (葱爆羊肉)”.Because the English translation focuses only on the ingredients, the author says it fails to describe the dishs rich cultural meaning and charm. The dishs beautiful Chinese name, “Fo Tiao Qiang,” has a story behind it. Buddhist monks (和尚) are required to eat vegetables only, but they cannot resist (忍住) the delicious dish. So, they jump over their temple walls to get a taste of the dish. The article suggests that translators provide more beautiful English translations of the names of Chinese dishes. It also notes a more vivid (生动的) English translation is very important to provide international visitors with a better understanding of Chinese cuisine. 60. Why do many restaurants provide English translations of their menus?A.Because they want to show their dishes ingredients.B.Because the public expect them to do so.C.Because Chinese dishes are popular across the world.D.Because it is a convenience for foreign travelers.61.According to China Youth Daily, whats the main problem of the English menu translations?A. They are too long to remember.B. Many of them are not correct.C. They lack cultural meaning.D. They are too difficult to understand.62. What would be the best title for this text?A. Measures to attract customersB. Ways to translate Chinese menusC. Better menu translations are neededD. Are English menu translations necessary?C Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world.So es the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls (过路费)? Why dont we use them for collecting energy?The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work? The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded (嵌入的) LEDs which “paint” the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour (绕行) ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to “slow down”. There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving.Replacing asphalt (沥青) roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips.We just cant wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future.63.The first paragraph serves as a(n) _.A. argumentB. mentC. explanationD. background 64.When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do?A. Guide them to a safer place.B. Remind drivers to drive slowly.C. Frighten them away from the road.D. Advise drivers to choose another way. 65.From the text, we can know that the Solar Road Panels can _.A. provide heat for drivers in winterB. guide drivers who get lost on the highwayC. melt snow and ice soon in winterD. help drivers see the road clearly in the sun66.What is the text mainly about?A. Functions of the road in the future.B. Development of solar energy.C. Free energy on the road.D. Solar road of the future.D Dear Parents,Now that it has been a week since school began, I hope that you and your child are settled and fortable in the arrangement of the new school year.

And it doesnt go away! Theres nothing worse than garlic,” they say. 71 Chester Aaron grows eighty-seven kinds of garlic on his farm. He wrote a book called Garlic Is Life. It seems that people either love garlic or hate it. 72 The first wild garlic probably grew somewhere in western Russia. Later, travelers carried garlic to China, Europe, and North Africa. Farmers began planting it over 5,000 years ago. People in many cultures shared similar ideas about garlic. For example, it was believed that garlic made it possible for slaves to work harder and longer. In Greece, the athletes of the first Olympic Games ate garlic, because they wanted to bee stronger and faster. 73 In some places, garlic was called “food for lovers”. People added it to other foods because it tasted good. People in many cultures ate garlic when they got sick. 74 It was also supposed to help with different kinds of pain.Is eating garlic actually good for you, or should we just laugh at these old ideas? The truth is, doctors today are telling their patients, “Eat garlic!” Recent research shows that garlic is good for your heart. 75 In many cultures, people trusted garlic to protect them from all kinds of bad luck.

It is really interesting to imagine what our life will be like in the future. A new cure for cancer is expected to be discovered and fuels such as coal, gas and petrol will not be used with new energy forms being developed. As new means of transportation are invented, it is possible for human beings to travel to outer space and go on holiday on other planets. Besides, robots are popular in our homes and do a lot of housework for us.
