Queenie Hennessy is in hospice(l临终关怀医院)and is writing to say goodbye..Harold immediately writes a reply and walks eagerly to the nearest mailbox to send it. However,there is something inside him that makes him give up the thought of posting and despite Maureen's disagreement,he starts to walk to the faraway Berwick to meet Queenie in person,lasting 87 days. I first heard about this book The Unlikely Pilgrimage (of Harold Fry when I was watching the interview of author Santa Moptefiore.This book was a part of her reading list at her friend's suggestion,so I decided to buy it i the bookstore during this summer.And undoubtedly I made the right choice! The book has been divided into several chapters and it is more of a collection of short stories.In each chapter, Harold comes across different people,from a garage girl to a manager in the cafe,each telling a story and influencing Harold in some way.As chapters progress,you get to see a change in Harold. When Harold makes this long single journey through the countryside,he eats wild berries and sometimes camps in fields,but my favorite parts are that he often engages (himself in his past.He looks back to his life,his father, wife,son,and Queenie.I felt this is a reminder for all ot us to have a moment of our own during our busy schedule. For a first novel,Joyce has written an incredible story.From the title of the book to the characters,everything is well organized.The story has the energy of an adventure and at the same time,it's emotionally inspiring.

Study lead author Julia Wolfson,associate professor in the Department of Interational Health at the Bloomberg School,and her co-authors wanted to test how labeling climate change impacts of fast food menu items might lead people to choose less red meat.Eating too much red meat has been linked to many health problems.Eating less red meat would also help lower greenhoase gas emissions () More than 5,000 participants were shown a sample menu and asked to choose a single item for dinner.One group of participants received a menu with non-red meat items such as chicken sandwiches labeled"low climate impact".Another group received a menu with red meat items-burgers labeled "high climate impact".A third control group received menus without climate labels. Both the high and low climate impact labels markedly reduced red meat choices compared to the control group. Menus with a high climate impact label on burgers increased non-beef choices by 23 percent compared to the control group.Menus that included low climate impact labels increased non-beef choices,such as a chicken sandwich or a salad, by about 10 percent more participants than those in the control group."These results suggest that menu labeling, particularly labels warning that an item has high climate impact,can be an effective strategy for encouraging more sustainable(可持续的)food choices in a fast food setting,”says Wolfson. While encouraging on the whole,the results suggest that positive"low climate impact"labels are less effective in encouraging sustainable food choices compared to "high climate impact"labels.At the same time,climate labels may have the unwanted side effect of making a choice seem healthier than it actually is. "An undeserved health halo (given to unhealthy menu items could encourage people to overeat them," Wolfson says."So we have to look for labeling strategies that create 'win-wins'for encouraging both more sustainable and healthy choices.” 32.What's the aim of the new study? A.To encourage sustainable food choices in fast food restaurants. B.To discover the impact of climate labels on fast food choices. C.To find out the connection between red meat and health problems. D.To decide the best method for labeling food products in general. 33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.The process of the study. B.The results of the study. C.The importance of the study. D.The influence of the study. 34.What potential effect could climate labels cause? 英语试题第5页共8页 A.They may cause confusion among consumers. B.They could make a food item scem healthier than it is. C.They might result in people consuming more red meat. D.They may lead to an increase in vegetarian choices. 35.What is Wolfson's attitude towards climate impact labels on food? A.Supportive. B.Indifferent.C.Objective. D.Cautious. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Language Learner Habits to Avold Successful langunge learners do the kind of things the unsuccessful ones don't and avoid the ones that unsuccessful ones do!This article is about language leamning habits that successful learers avoid.
