No one in the family seems to know when she started collecting them, or exactly how many she had.My grandmother died just over two years ago. At 91, she had spent 30 years without her right leg, which was removed due to cancer the year I was born. She was a poet, an artist, a food lover and a salt cellar collector. The funny thing about the salts, as she called them I never once heard her say salt cellar was that although everybody knew they were her hobby and everyone was always searching for them at yard sales or in stores, nobody seemed to know what they meant to her and they just wanted to make her happy. Grandma kept her salts in a dark wooden corner display case in the living room. Since her death the case has remained exactly as she left it. Grandpa tries his best to preserve his memories of her just as they are. Now I am collecting, too. Collecting memories about my grandmothers hobby, a way she spent her time. And as I hold one of them in my hand, I picture her holding it in her hand on the day she got it. She is smiling. My mother and her two sisters all have small collections, but my mother admits that she was more interested in finding salts to send to Grandma. Grandma once wrote a poem titled “When April es”. The poem contains the line, “When April es and I am not around, remember me when daffodils are found.” Now, Grandpa is working on a poem with the line, “April came and you were not around”.But she was, somehow. She was there in the memories left behind by her possessions.25. In writing the text, the author expressed .

David Tillman, a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota, America, examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how diet affected health. He noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized(工业化), population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet. The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tillman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes（糖尿病）and heart disease. Unfortunately, when people bee industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these health problems, especially in developing countries in Asia. China is an example where the number of diabetes cases has been jumping from less than one percent to 10 percent of the population as they began to industrialize over a 20-year period. And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on. And, a diet bad for human beings, is also bad for the environment. As the worlds population grows, more forests and tropical（热带的）areas will bee farmland for crops or grasslands for cattle. We are likely to have more greenhouse gas in the future from agriculture than that ing out of all forms of transportation right now. Mr. Tillman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health, a trilemma: a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible settlement is leaving the Western diet behind.29. According to the passage, more greenhouse gas might be given off in the future from _. A. transportation B. developing countries C. agriculture D. developed countries30. David Tilman believes that_. A. diet, the environment and human health are closely connected B. the Western diet is the only choice as the nation industrializes C. people in tropical areas are more likely to have heart disease D. traditional diets are more balanced than the Western diet31. We can infer from the passage that _. A. industrialization contributes to the spread of the Western diet B. overweight people are at higher risk of infectious diseases C. the examined information es from developing countries D. Nigeria has the largest number of diabetes cases32. The main purpose of the passage is to_. A. call on us to protect the environment B. warn us of the danger of the Western diet C. remind us of the importance of health D. advise us to have a balanced dietDThe Poetry Foundation, recently named American poet Jack Prelutsky as the nations first childrens poet laureate (桂冠诗人).
