This eco car is amazing. It's called the air car because it's designed to run on air. The designer was interested in the chAllenge of designing a car that runs on new energy. When the first model was shown at the paris design fair, people were surprised at its lack of noise and how safe IT was. They were impressed by the technology that allows the car to use air at a speed of less than fifty kilometers an hour. The car looks just like a Normal car with four seats inside and a trunk for luggage. The car is cheap ed to run, because IT runs on air and bad is stored in a tank, and its body is made of light fiber glass, not heavy steel. Like most cars in the future, gas stations will have special pumps for drivers to refill the air tank, just like they refill IT with regular fuel. Now the best news, of course, is that the air car produces zero Greenhouse gas at low speed.

A
Where would we be without food?We certainly wouldn’t be at Starbucks,grocery stores or restaurants.We wouldn’t,in fact,be anywhere for very long,because we need food to live.Food is seen as a basic human right,and yet one in nine people globally experience hunger.As far back as 1945 the United Nations recognized food as not a privilege,but a right,and that’s why they created World Food Day,observed annually on October 16,in 1979.It’s a day of observance to draw attention to the plight of the hungry.So,today,join us in alleviating hunger.
HOW TO OBSERVE WORLD FOOD DAY
(1)Give to a local food bank
In the United States it’s estimated 1 in 7 people rely on food banks as their primary or supplemental food source—many of these are working families who suffer from unemployment and cannot afford the groceries needed to help their family live healthily.The top requested items for food banks are healthy,nutritious and easy-to-store items high in protein,such as canned or dry beans,peanut butter,rolled oats,low-sodium soups and vegetables and tuna canned in water.
(2)Support small-scale farms
Ninety-eight percent of the farms in the world are family farms.They usually practice sustainable agriculture with plants that are native to the area,rotating crops and limited use of pesticides.Sadly,many family farmers are unable to produce the variety of crops needed for their own survival and without support,can suffer from insufficient nutrition themselves.On World Food Day,shop locally and support family farms.
(3)Raise money to eliminate hunger
On World Food Day there are typically a number of food drives.If you don’t know of a local food drive,organize one yourself and donate the food to it.Globally there are hunger walks,World Food Day dinners or food packaging rallies.Get involved and let’s end world hunger!
21.What can we learn about World Food Day?
A.It is observed only in less developed countries.
B.It falls on October 16 annually since 1979.
C.It is committed to boosting the rice yield worldwide.
D.It aims to teach farmers to practice sustainable agriculture.
22.What is a food drive probably about according to the last paragraph?
A.A campaign to deliver extra food to the place where it is needed.
B.An organization to call on people to save food.
C.A soup kitchen to teach people how to cook healthy food.
D.A volunteer activity to collect food for hungry people.
23.What is the purpose of the text?
A.To stress the importance of food security.
B.To share the diverse activities held on World Food Day.
C.To inform the readers of the origin of World Food Day.
D.To appeal to the readers to do their part to end hunger.

The relationship between Jeffrey Pang and his son,Kevin Pang,was like hot-and-sour soup.It boiled over easily.The Pangs,who moved to the United States in 1988,wanted their son and daughter to know Chinese culture.As a video game-playing American teen,Kevin wasn’t interested.
But when Kevin became a food writer for the Chicago Tribune,he realized he had a valuable resource:his cook-loving dad.“My father and I shared,for the first time,a common interest.I would call to ask about recipes and cooking techniques.He would school me on the world of Chinese food,” Kevin writes in the introduction to the cookbook he has just published.
When it comes to cooking Chinese food,he points out that there is no one definition of Chinese food.“Chinese cooking is not hidebound.For example,consider baked pork chop rice (烤猪排饭) popularized in Hong Kong.It is a pork chop with egg-fried rice.And then you top it with this thick tomato sauce,” explains Kevin.“And then you top that with some cheese.It’s a very interesting combined dish that has some Western British influences,and it’s altogether very Chinese as well.”
By the time Kevin joined America’s Test Kitchen (ATK) staff in 2020 as its editorial director for digital content,his dad had become an Internet celebrity demonstrating the family’s recipes.Kevin recognized an opportunity not only to share his own family’s food stories but also to apply the ATK method of breaking down recipes into simple steps for the home cook.
24.Why would Kevin phone his father after becoming a food writer?
A.To publish his Chinese cookbook.
B.To inquire about hot-and-sour soup.
C.To seek permission for video games.
D.To ask about cooking Chinese food.
25.What does the underlined word “hidebound” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Unpleasant. B.Changeable.
C.Inflexible. D.Unpopular.
26.What can we infer about Kevin and his father from the passage?
A.Their relationship has improved.
B.They run America’s Test Kitchen.
C.They do dishes to attract followers.
D.Their cookbook is about low-fat food.
27.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.Cooking at home helps you cook well for less.
B.Father and son teach Chinese cooking together.
C.Chinese culture is becoming popular in the US.
D.Recipes and cooking techniques are really easy.

This fall,students at the University of Massachusetts found a new menu at their canteens:the “diet for a cooler planet” menu.This meant herb-roasted lamb,raised with a carbon-friendly approach.It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm’s field.The options were plant-heavy,locally grown,and involved little or no packaging.
“We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food,” says Kathy Wicks,sustainability(可持续发展) director for UMass Dining.The university is not alone in this effort.Increasingly,American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices impact climate change.For many,small choices at the grocery store and restaurant can be more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car.
Small changes in eating habits may make a big difference.Studies point to the food system as a significant cause of global warming.According to Project Drawdown,a research organization that evaluates climate solutions,the way food is grown,transported,and consumed accounts for about 1/4 of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions.Beef is a regular target.“If,on average,Americans cut 1/4 pound of beef per week from their diet,it’s like taking 10 million cars off the road a year,” says Sujatha Bergen,director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council.Food waste ranks third among climate solutions.While much waste occurs before consumers are involved,Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased about $1,600 worth a year per family of four.
“People are beginning to understand that their food choices have a big impact on climate,” says Megan Larnner,director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York.But she adds that substantial change will need to come from the whole food system.
28.What is the purpose of the new menu at the University of Massachusetts?
A.To market the cold dishes.
B.To reduce the cost of packaging.
C.To raise low-carbon awareness.
D.To popularize the plant-heavy diet.
29.What can be inferred from paragraph 2?
A.Food choices matter much to global warming.
B.Food is a decisive factor for climate change.
C.Universities are working together in climate action.
D.Fuel-efficient cars are not affordable for consumers.
30.What does Sujatha Bergen say about beef?
A.It plays a significant role in American’s diet.
B.It is popular among millions of car drivers.
C.It has no relationship with gas emission.
D.It has great influence on carbon reduction.
31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Food System Reform:A Successful Trial
B.Low-carbon Diet:A Trend,or More?
C.Carbon Emission:A Killer,or Healer?
D.Global Warming:An Approaching Danger

Farming is damaging the planet.But there could be a much more environmentally friendly way to feed ourselves:using renewable energy to turn carbon dioxide (CO2) into food.
“This is becoming a reality,” says Pasi Vainikka at Solar Foods.The company is building the first working factory,near Helsinki in Finland,which will be able to make food directly from CO2.It will produce 100 tonnes per year,enough for 4 or 5 million meals,he says.“We are a bit behind schedule,but production may start just about in 2023,” says Vainikka.
At the factory,renewable electricity will be used to produce hydrogen and oxygen from water.The hydrogen will be added to large containers,where the bacteria grow.Some of the CO2 will be caught directly from the air at a visitor centre at the factory,Vainikka says,and the rest will come from industrial sources.The end result will be a yellow powder called Solein that is made of bacterial cells and is up to 70 percent protein.It can be used as an ingredient in all kinds of foods,from meat alternatives to snacks.
Solein was approved as a food ingredient in Singapore in October 2022,and Solar Foods is awaiting approval in the UK,the European Union and the US.
Compared with plant crops,Solein will use 100 times less water per kilogram of protein produced,20 times less land and give off a fifth as much CO2,according to Solar Foods.Compared with beef,a kilogram of protein can be produced using 600 times less water and 200 times less land while giving off 200 times less CO2,says the company.There are other benefits,too:factories could be situated anywhere in the world and production won’t be affected by weather extremes.
“With Solar Foods and other companies expanding their systems,this is truly introducing a new era of agriculture,” says Dorian Leger at Connectomix Bio in Germany.“I think these trends are exciting and will help improve global food security while reducing carbon output.”
32.What does Vainikka’s company plan to do?
A.Generate green energy.
B.Fight against water pollution.
C.Produce a food ingredient from CO2.
D.Prepare meals for factory workers.
33.What do we know about Solein according to the text?
A.It contains a significant amount of protein.
B.It has been approved in the UK.
C.It comes from industrial waste.
D.It is a kind of bacteria.
34.What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Solein?
A.Its environmental problems.
B.Its noticeable advantages.
C.Its production process.
D.Its demanding needs.
35.What does Leger think of producing Solein?
A.It depends on support from global companies.
B.It can help feed people around the world.
C.It can replace traditional agriculture.
D.It is already reducing air pollution.

What is moderation(适度)?Basically,it means eating only as much food as your body needs.You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal,but not too full. 36 But it doesn’t mean saying goodbye to the food you love.
Take your time.It’s important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. 37 It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food,so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.
Eat with others whenever possible.Eating alone,especially in front of the TV or computer,often leads to mindless overeating.And be careful about the food you keep at hand.It’s more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready,like cookies. 38
Control emotional(情绪的) eating. 39 Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness,loneliness,or boredom.But by learning healthier ways to manage emotions,you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings.
40 A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism(新陈代谢),while eating small,healthy meals keeps your energy up all day.Avoid eating late at night.Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14-16 hours until breakfast the next morning.Studies suggest that eating only when you’re most active and giving your digestive system a long break each day may help to regulate weight.
A.Eat properly throughout the day.
B.We don’t always eat just to satisfy hunger.
C.Don’t swallow a meal on the way to work.
D.Most of us need to double the amount we eat.
E.Instead,surround yourself with healthy choices.
F.For many of us,moderation means eating less than we do now.
G.That won’t lead to cheating or giving up on your new eating plan.

“Kick” that girl with head
Mama used to pack two tacos(墨西哥玉米卷) for my school lunch each day.But each morning I would say,“Mama,can I please have some lunch money or a sandwich instead?” The reply was always the same:“Why?You already have these yummy tacos.”
It wasn’t that the tacos weren’t good;it was that some kids called Mexican Americans beaners,so the last thing I needed was to stand out like a big stupid sign.I started going to the very end of the cafeteria,to turn my back,wolf down my tacos in three minutes and then run out.
On a cold winter day,I started eating my second taco rather slowly.“Hey,you!What’s that?” A towering girl pointed at the bag ill-intentionally with her fat finger.I was shocked.She grabbed the bag from my hand.“Taco head!” She yelled.In seconds I was surrounded by kids shouting “Taco head!Taco head!” I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole.Worse still,my taco flew open and spilt all over my white sweater.I wanted to kick her hard,but I dare not.This nightmare went on until Coach Clarke,the girls’ PE teacher,stopped them and ordered everybody back to their seats.“Sofia,” she said,“don’t pay attention to them.They’re just mean and silly.” She took me to the teachers’ room and helped me clean up.

M:I became interested in eco-friendly transport when I discovered how much cars contribute to air pollution and global warming.This eco-car is amazing—it’s called the air car because it’s designed to run on air.The designer was interested in the challenge of designing a car that runs on new energy.When the first model was shown at the Paris Design Fair,people were surprised at its lack of noise and how safe it was.They were impressed by the technology that allows the car to use air at a speed of less than 50 km/h.The car looks just like a normal car with four seats inside and a trunk for luggage.The car is cheap to run because it runs on air that is stored in a tank—and its body is made of light fiber glass,not heavy steel like most cars.In the future,gas stations will have special pumps for drivers to refill their air tank just like they refill it with regular fuel now.The best news of course is that the air car produces zero greenhouse gas at low speed.

第一节
Dear John,
Hearing that you would like to know more about Chinese food before attending the Chinese Food Festival,I’m writing to recommend one of my favorite foods—Stewed Pork Ball in Brown Sauce to you,which I often cook at home or eat in restaurants.
This dish is composed of four brown meat balls,representing blessings of life,longevity and happiness,so it is often served as the last dish at the wedding,birthday and other feasts.Additionally,it is fat but not greasy and tastes so good that I always eat two big bowls of rice with it.
If you’re interested,why not have a try?I’m sure you’ll fall in love with it.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
“How about we exchange?” Coach Clarke pointed at my lunch box,smiling.I lowered my head and nodded.She quickly pressed a sandwich into my hand and reached for my taco.“Wow,amazing!Try my sandwich!” I took a small bite carefully.“Not bad.” I frowned and whispered.Coach Clarke laughed to tears,“Forget it.Eat your taco instead.” As I chewed one and Coach Clarke the other,she kept praising my taco.I knew everyone in the cafeteria could hear.I knew she did it on purpose.
Thanks to Clarke,after that day fewer kids laughed at me about my tacos.Instead,my mother’s hand-made tacos became popular.Sometimes I invited Clarke to have lunch together.One day as we chatted over lunch,I told her how I wished to kick that mean girl.“Sofia,learn to defeat her in English,math and everything,with your head.” That year I beat that girl in all subjects.What a blessing to meet Clarke,who was there in time to help me and taught me that my head was more powerful than my foot!
