| We recycle (回收利用) rubbish, so why not language? Recycling language means using vocabulary that you have learnt before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up (堆积) in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it. So how do you recycle language? There are basically three ways to do it. The first is through reading. Go back to your favourite articles and read them once more. Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item. If there are some that you are not sure about, make a guess and you will probably guess right. The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favourite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don"t worry if you have made mistakes. That"s how you learn. The third way to recycle language is by having an imaginary chat with yourself about your favourite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with you who speaks English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel. | |||
| 1. According to the passage, recycling language means | |||
| A. repeating vocabulary at times B. revising vocabulary at a proper time C. learning new vocabulary as much as possible D. using vocabulary that we have learnt very often | |||

| A. be kept in our mind B. be forgotten easily C. pile up in our environment D. disappear from our mind soon | |||

| You"re driving home from work. You"re tired, and the thought of shopping for food and cooking dinner makes you even more tired. Suddenly you see a brightly lit sign: "Hamburgers! Fries! Shakes!" Your hands are holding the wheel. Which way are you going to turn? If you turn toward the hamburgers, you"ll find much of what you"re looking for. You won"t have to do any shopping, and you won"t have to do any cooking. Not only that, but you won"t even have to clean up after you"ve eaten. Of course, the fast food will be about three times as expensive as food you buy in a store and maybe half as nutritious (有营养的) as food you cook at home. That"s because you"ve got to pay for someone else to buy the food and cook it, and for those unpleasant containers that save on cleanup. Fast food is also less nutritious because the meals are not as balanced (均衡的) as those you can prepare at home. Fat content and calories are high, and the meals don"t have enough fresh fruits and vegetables. Fast-food restaurant owners, who always care about money, also mav cut corners on quality of foods. Worst of all, those hamburgers will be the same old hamburgers as you"ve had a million times before. With home cooking, you can eat anything you want, not just what you can find in fast-food restaurants. The choice is yours, of course. However! if you want to be healthy, try cooking at home. | |||
| 1. When you think of ______. you feel even more tired after work. A. eating the fast food B. preparing the fast food C. shopping and cooking dinner D. turning toward the hamburgers 2. The fast food will be" about three times as expensive as ______. A. the food in a store B fresh fruits and vegetables C. the food you cook at home D. the food in other restaurants 3. What does the writer try to tell us? A. She advises us to eat more fast food. B. She tells us how to choose fast food. C. She encourages us to cook dinner at home, D. She tells us where to have dinner when we are tired. 4. What"s the best title of the passage? A. You are what you eat! B. You eat what you need! C. Fast, delicious and convenient! D. Cheap, nutritiously-unbalanced and fresh! | |||

| Blood Donation(献血) A grown-up person has ten or eleven pints of blood inside his or her body. We can lose a pint of blood without feeling anything, but if we lose too much blood, we will feel weak and cold. Our faces become pale(苍白的). We may die. This is what often happens when somebody is hurt in an accident, or a soldier is hurt in a war. Many people used to die in this way. But today they can be taken to hospital and given more blood. Almost at once they feel better. Their faces are no longer pale. They do not die. Where does the blood come from? People who are healthy may donate blood to a blood bank so that it can be used to save people"s lives. When they go to donate blood, a special kind of needle(针) is put into the arm. It does not hurt. The blood runs through the needle and through a rubber tube (橡胶管) into a bottle or a bag. A pint of blood is taken this way. The person who has given blood drinks a cup of tea or coffee and rests for a few minutes. Then he feel quite well. And he may give his blood this way three months later. A person who gives blood feels happy, because he knows that his blood will be used to save someone"s life. Perhaps one day he himself will need blood. When you are older, you may give blood, too. But you cannot do this until you are eighteen. | |||

| What would you do if you were ill? Of course, we would eat some medicines. The most common disease in the world is the cold. It often starts with a sore throat. If you catch a cold, you sneeze and your nose runs. You usually have a headache, too. Often you have a cough. It"s not a serious disease, but you can feel quite ill. There isn"t a cure (良方) for a cold, but you can take medicines to make you feel better. For example, you can take aspirin to get rid of your headache. It is good to rest and to drink a lot of water, too. A doctor once told me, "With the right medicine, a cold will last for seven days. With no medicine, it will go on for a whole week!" Where does our medicine come from? A long time ago, people understood that some plants made them feel better when they were ill. They ate leaves, the roots, the fruit, or the seeds of plants. For example, the juice of lemons makes a sore throat feel better. In modern times, scientists have looked at these plants, and found out which chemicals (化学物质) are in them. Many of our medicines today are made from those chemicals. There are some diseases which we can"t cure (治愈) yet. Such as, AIDS, cancers... And nobody has found a cure for old age. But because of modern medicines, the average person now lives longer than their grandparents. | |||
