To be friendly to the environment, you may choose to walk. Have you ever tried to live a low-carbon life through your diet? A new study from the University of Oxford has looked into the health and environmental influences of 15 foods common in western diets. Among these, plant-based foods included fruits, vegetables, nuts and potatoes. It also studied animal-based foods, including red meat, chicken, milk products, eggs and fish. According to the studyˈs lead researcher, Michael Clark, “Choosing better and greener diets is one of the main ways people can improve their health and protect the environment.” That is to say, plant-based diets are much healthier for us and kinder to the environment. To get this result, researchers compared the influence of eating another portion（一份）of each food with the increased risk of a few illnesses. They also find out the environmental harm for each animal-based food and each plant-based food. By using this method, the study found that red meats were the most unfriendly foods to the environment. Keeping farm animals produces a large number of methane（甲烷）that keeps 30 times more heat than CO2. As well as making the earth warmer, eating too much red meat is known to increase the risk of a few illnesses, such as heart trouble. Plant-based diets can give us the same health benefits（好处）in a much greener way. According to the study, without eating or using meat and milk products, global farmland use could be cut down by more than 75% and still feed the world. Speaking to the Guardian（《卫报》）, Tim Benton of Chatham House said, “If we can give people reasonable official advice of what a healthy and green diet is, the world and its people would be in a much better place.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 21. How does the writer lead into the topic in Paragraph 1? A. By giving an example. B. By asking questions. C. By making a comparison. D. By making a survey. 22.Which one is animal-based food? A. B. C. D. 23. Whatˈs the result of this study? A. Many people choose to walk to work. B. Plant-based diets are healthier and greener. C. The more we eat, the better the environment is. D. 15 foods common in western diets are not healthy. 24.What is the main idea of Paragraph 5? A. The harm of CO2. B. The risk of heart trouble. C. A reason for keeping animals. D. Two disadvantages of red meats. 25.What will this study probably be used for? A. Teaching farmers to plant vegetables correctly. B. Offering doctors new methods to treat patients. C. Guiding people to lose weight by doing exercise. D. Giving official advice on health and environment. C Christmas is my favourite festival.

CGI (computer-generated imagery 电子成像技术 ) has been widely used in film-making. Mostly, scenes with CGI are filmed in front of a green screen in the studio. Green doesn’t match any natural hair or skin. 32 This enables CGI effects to be added later. 33 You may never expect the way that these sounds are added. For example, in Jurassic Park, the sounds of different animals were mixed by a computer. The sound of the doors opening in the Star Trek films was made by pulling a piece of paper out from an envelope. A careful study of the background information also makes a film’s success. To make his film Titanic look real, the director spent six months checking plans and then built a full-sized model ship. 34 He even went down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean to see what was left of the ship. The above may not include all the work behind the scenes. What we see on the cinema screen is just small parts of film-making. 35 They have worked for months and even years so that you can have two hours of enjoyment!
