Encouraged by the book The Travels of Marco Polo, Italian physicist (物理学家) Alessandro Codello started his own Silk Road journey a few years ago from Italy. He travelled through countries including Greece, Türkiye, Iran, Afghanistan, and finally China. During his trip, Codello carried The Travels of Marco Polo with him. He said, “Every time I reached a new area, I tried to find ideas or places that matched Polo’s words. The most interesting thing was finding what he had written in the book was right in front of my eyes.”
Codello was very interested in the markets along the way, as lively trades and exchanges took place in those places.

He talked about his trip to Khiva in Uzbekistan. It is the hometown of mathematician Al-Khwarizmi, from whom the term “algorithm (算法)” got its name. “It’s closely related to Shenzhen today,” he said. “It is very important to many problems and technologies that engineers in Shenzhen meet.”
When Codello finally arrived in China at the end of his journey, he felt the same curiosity as Marco Polo. “When I first arrived in China, I was not used to paying with a phone. I was amazed that banknotes were not commonly used. However, when Marco Polo was here, he was amazed that people in China were using paper money. Once again, I shared the same feeling with Marco Polo,” Codello said.

Dietitians (营养学家) often tell people to “eat the rainbow”—eating all kinds of colourful foods provides vitamins and minerals that can’t be replaced with supplements to keep your body healthy.
A food company examined buyers’ behaviour globally across hundreds of stores. According to experts from the company, our plates look very colourful, with purple foods particularly in fashion. This is indeed the case. Walk through any supermarket and you will find purple foods are showing up on the shelves: purple cauliflowers (花椰菜), purple sweet potatoes and purple cabbages.
The increasing popularity of purple foods in the market is unsurprising, showing how attentive people have become to health in recent years. People have long known that the darker the colour of a food is, the more antioxidants (抗氧化物质) and nutrients it will have. In fact, people were encouraged to eat more purple foods after a study found that those who ate purple fruits and vegetables regularly usually had low cholesterol (胆固醇) levels and a reduced risk of getting high blood pressure.
Research shows that these foods get their purple colour from the anthocyanin (花青素). They have been linked with antioxidants and anti-aging special qualities in the body. Purple foods help improve bone health, lower the risk of some cancers and improve memory. Take purple sweet potatoes for example. While the standard sweet potato is packed with health benefits of its own,the purple sweet potato is even better for us. These brightly-coloured sweet potatoes share the same taste as their orange siblings, but are also filled with the anthocyanin. Therefore, purple sweet potatoes help with digestion and have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) special qualities.
Nutrition advisers agree that purple foods are full of natural health benefits. “The benefits of antioxidants have long been discussed. They are also known to fight disease, keep you looking younger and be good for your heart—so, why not eat them?” one says.
31. According to nutrition experts, we should eat all kinds of colorful foods often ________.
A. because richly-coloured foods are popular in supermarkets
B. though vitamin and mineral supplements can replace them
C. as they can provide us with vitamins and minerals that we need
D. because people have taken notice of the importance of health these years
32. All of the following have made the purple foods popular in recent years EXCEPT ________.
A. the darker the colour of a food is, the healthier it will be
B. more and more purple foods are available nowadays
C. people are getting to realize that being healthy is important
D. a study found that those who often ate purple foods were healthier
33. Which has the same meaning as the underlined word “siblings” in Paragraph 4?
A. Brothers or sisters. B. Fathers or mothers.
C. Uncles or aunts. D. Sons or daughters.
34. The benefits of eating purple fruits and vegetables include ________.
① treating cancers ② improving memory ③ helping people look young ④ aiding digestion
⑤ reducing the risk of getting high blood pressure
A. ①②③④ B. ①②④⑤ C. ①③④⑤ D. ②③④⑤
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Eating Purple Foods for Your Health B. Getting the Anthocyanin from Purple Foods
C. Purple Foods, a New Kind of Product D. Nutrients, Something the Body Needs

To celebrate Labor Day, a photo show was held in a community this month. It started from May 1st and lasted for 10 days.
All the photos on show were about ordinary (普通的) workers in the community. Behind each photo there was a happy worker doing his or her daily job. A pancake maker was laughing, with flour (面粉) all over his hands. A driver was helping an elderly lady get off the bus — warm smiles were on their faces.
The photos were taken by Chen Hang, a young man who lived in the community for five years. He spent nearly a month walking around the neighborhood with a camera. His idea was simple — to record the smiles of ordinary workers. He “collected” 100 smiling faces. The photos greatly touched him and he decided to share the touching moments in the photos with more people. So he went to the community center for help. The volunteers there organized his photos and turned them into a show for the Labor Day celebrations.
The show drew people in the community, including the “models,” to stop and watch. They were excited to recognize the familiar faces in the photos. They felt happy with the photo show and thankful to Chen Hang. “Without these photos, we may not know how beautiful we are at work,” one of the “models” said.

Dietitians (营养学家) often tell people to “eat the rainbow”—eating all kinds of colourful foods provides vitamins and minerals that can’t be replaced with supplements to keep your body healthy.
A food company examined buyers’ behaviour globally across hundreds of stores. According to experts from the company, our plates look very colourful, with purple foods particularly in fashion. This is indeed the case. Walk through any supermarket and you will find purple foods are showing up on the shelves: purple cauliflowers (花椰菜), purple sweet potatoes and purple cabbages.
The increasing popularity of purple foods in the market is unsurprising, showing how attentive people have become to health in recent years. People have long known that the darker the colour of a food is, the more antioxidants (抗氧化物质) and nutrients it will have. In fact, people were encouraged to eat more purple foods after a study found that those who ate purple fruits and vegetables regularly usually had low cholesterol (胆固醇) levels and a reduced risk of getting high blood pressure.
Research shows that these foods get their purple colour from the anthocyanin (花青素). They have been linked with antioxidants and anti-aging special qualities in the body. Purple foods help improve bone health, lower the risk of some cancers and improve memory. Take purple sweet potatoes for example. While the standard sweet potato is packed with health benefits of its own,the purple sweet potato is even better for us. These brightly-coloured sweet potatoes share the same taste as their orange siblings, but are also filled with the anthocyanin. Therefore, purple sweet potatoes help with digestion and have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) special qualities.
Nutrition advisers agree that purple foods are full of natural health benefits. “The benefits of antioxidants have long been discussed. They are also known to fight disease, keep you looking younger and be good for your heart—so, why not eat them?” one says.
31. According to nutrition experts, we should eat all kinds of colorful foods often ________.
A. because richly-coloured foods are popular in supermarkets
B. though vitamin and mineral supplements can replace them
C. as they can provide us with vitamins and minerals that we need
D. because people have taken notice of the importance of health these years
32. All of the following have made the purple foods popular in recent years EXCEPT ________.
A. the darker the colour of a food is, the healthier it will be
B. more and more purple foods are available nowadays
C. people are getting to realize that being healthy is important
D. a study found that those who often ate purple foods were healthier
33. Which has the same meaning as the underlined word “siblings” in Paragraph 4?
A. Brothers or sisters. B. Fathers or mothers.
C. Uncles or aunts. D. Sons or daughters.
34. The benefits of eating purple fruits and vegetables include ________.
① treating cancers ② improving memory ③ helping people look young ④ aiding digestion
⑤ reducing the risk of getting high blood pressure
A. ①②③④ B. ①②④⑤ C. ①③④⑤ D. ②③④⑤
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Eating Purple Foods for Your Health B. Getting the Anthocyanin from Purple Foods
C. Purple Foods, a New Kind of Product D. Nutrients, Something the Body Needs
【答案】31. C 32. B 33. A 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了吃各种颜色的食物,特别是紫色食物对健康的好处。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“eating all kinds of colourful foods provides vitamins and minerals that can’t be replaced with supplements to keep your body healthy”可知,营养专家建议吃各种彩色食物是因为它们能提供身体所需的维生素和矿物质,
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“… the darker the colour of a food is, the more antioxidants ( 抗氧化物质) and nutrients it will have.”、“The increasing popularity of purple foods...showing how attentive people are becoming to health in recent years.”、“after a study found that those who ate purple fruits and vegetables regularly often had low cholesterol and a reduced risk of getting high blood pressure.”可知,紫色食物流行的原因不包括有越来越多的紫色食物可供选择。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。“siblings”意为“兄弟姐妹”,此处指紫色红薯和橙色红薯(普通红薯)是同类食物,如同兄弟姐妹。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“improve memory”、“lower the risk of some cancers”、“help with digestion”“anti-inflammatory”以及第三段“reduced risk of getting high blood pressure”,第五段“keep you looking younger”可知,好处包括提高记忆力、帮助人们看起来年轻、帮助消化和降低患高血压的风险,不能治疗癌症。②③④⑤正确。
【35题详解】

To celebrate Labor Day, a photo show was held in a community this month. It started from May 1st and lasted for 10 days.
All the photos on show were about ordinary (普通的) workers in the community. Behind each photo there was a happy worker doing his or her daily job. A pancake maker was laughing, with flour (面粉) all over his hands. A driver was helping an elderly lady get off the bus — warm smiles were on their faces.
The photos were taken by Chen Hang, a young man who lived in the community for five years. He spent nearly a month walking around the neighborhood with a camera. His idea was simple — to record the smiles of ordinary workers. He “collected” 100 smiling faces. The photos greatly touched him and he decided to share the touching moments in the photos with more people. So he went to the community center for help. The volunteers there organized his photos and turned them into a show for the Labor Day celebrations.
The show drew people in the community, including the “models,” to stop and watch. They were excited to recognize the familiar faces in the photos. They felt happy with the photo show and thankful to Chen Hang. “Without these photos, we may not know how beautiful we are at work,” one of the “models” said.
