I was the middle child of three,but there was a gap of five years
on either side,and I hardly saw my father before
I was eight. For this and other reasons I was somewhat lonely. I had the lonely
childs habit of making up stories and holding conversations with imaginary
persons,and I think from the very start
my literary ambitions(文学志向)were mixed up with the feeling of being isolated(孤独)and undervalued. I knew that I
had a natural ability with words and a power of facing unpleasant facts,and I felt that this created a
sort of private world in which I could get my own back for my failure in
everyday life.
However, the quantity of serious writing
which I produced all through my childhood would not add up to half a dozen
pages. I wrote my first poem at the age of four or five,my mother taking it down to
dictation. I cannot remember anything about it except that it was about
a tiger and the tiger had chair-like teeth”--a good enough expression. At
eleven,when the war of 1914-18 broke
out, I wrote a poem which was printed in the local(地方的)newspaper, as was another, two
years later, on the death of Kitchener. From time to time, when I was a bit
older, I wrote bad and usually unfinished nature poems. I also,
about twice,attempted a short story which was
a failure. That was the total of the would-be serious work that I actually set
down on paper during all those years.
60. The underlined word“it
in paragraph 2 refers to_____.
A. the quantity of
serious writing B.
the writers first poem
C. the writers
childhood
D. the tiger in the poem

as a little boy the writer_.
A. had no
playmates
B. showed his gift
for writing
C. put out lots of
poems and stories
D. got his first
poem published in 1916.
62. What can be inferred about
the writer?
A. He was least
favoured in his family.
B. He had much
difficulty in talking with others.
C. He had an
unhappy childhood for lack of care.
D. His loneliness resulted in his interest
in writing.

Health food is a general term
applied to all kinds of foods that are considered more healthful than the types
of foods sold in supermarkets. For example, whole grains, dried beans, and corn
oil are health foods. A narrower classification of health food is natural food.
This term is used to distinguish between types of the some food. Raw honey is a
natural sweetener, whereas refined sugar is not. Fresh fruit is a natural food,
but canned fruit, with sugars and other additives(添加剂), is not. The most precise term
of all and the narrowest classification within health foods is organic food,
used to describe food that has been grown on a particular kind of farm. Fruits
and vegetables that are grown in gardens that are treated only with organic
fertilizers(有机化肥), that are not
sprayed with poisonous insecticides, and that are not refined after harvest,
are organic foods. Meat, fish, dairy and poultry products from animals that are
fed only organically — grown feed and that are not injected with hormones (激素) are also organic
foods.
In choosing the type of food you
eat, then, you have basically two choices: inorganic, processed foods, or
organic, unprocessed foods. A wise decision should include investigation of the
reason why processed foods contain
chemicals, some of which are proved to be toxic (有毒的)and why vitamin content is greatly reduced in processed
foods.
Bread is typically used by health
food advocates as an example of a processed food. First, the seeds from which
the grain is grown are treated with a chemical which is extremely toxic. Later,
the grain is sprayed with a number of very toxic insecticides. After the grain
has been made into flour, it is made white with another chemical which is also
toxic. Next, a dough conditioner is added, along with a softener. The
conditioner and softener are poisons, and in fact, the softener has sickened
and killed experimental animals.
A very toxic anti-fungal compound(抗真菌化合物), is added to keep the
bread from getting moldy.
Other foods from the supermarket
would show a similar pattern of processing and preserving. You see, we buy our
food on the basis of smell, color, and texture, instead of vitamin content, and
manufacturers give us what we want, even if it is poisonous. The alternative?
Eat health foods, preferable the organic variety.
71. What is the main
idea of this passage?
A. Health food. B. The processing of bread. C. Organic gardens. D. Poisons.
72. Which term is used
to distinguish between types of the same food?
A. Refined foods. B. Natural foods. C. Organic foods. D. Unprocessed foods.
73. What do all of the
additives in bread have in common?
A. They are all used
to keep the bread from getting moldy.
B. They are all
poisons.
C. They are all
organic.
D. They have all
killed laboratory animals.
74. What happens to
food when it is processed?
A. The ultimate
content remains the same.
B. Vitamin information
is not available after processing.
C. Vitamin content is
reduced altogether.
D. The vitamin content
is greatly reduced.
75. We normally buy
foods on the basis of
A. organic
variety B. beauty C. refined contents D. color and texture
