17、st entered, Vanak Restaurant does not look like much of a restaurant, but once the pleasant smells of kabob（烤肉串）hit the senses, you are incapable of calling it anything less. Owned by a local couple, this Persian restaurant has an inviting, homelike atmosphere that many restaurants lack. The space i
18、s small with only a few dining tables and nearly no decoration, but the environment is truly charming. Lying in a hardly noticeable street corner, the restaurant still attracts all customers, especially those experienced in the delights of Middle Eastern cooking. A common sight is that of old Persia
19、n men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics, watching news events on TV, drinking a black tea known as Persian chai, an reading local Persian newspapers all the while trying to finish off their plates piled with food. The variety of food at the restaurant is limited, but the amount
20、 of each dish is fairly large. Most of the meals can serve two people and are under $10, so not only is it affordable but practical as well. The food, especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy, made with limited fat and oil and served straight off the grill （烤肉架
21、）. The main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs, which are different style of grilled meat. One delicious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob, which is made of grille chicken pieces served with either rice or bread. Another great kabob is the Cbelo Kabob, kabob consistin
22、g of grilled beef. Although the restaurant is small, the atmosphere and the food is delicious.

25、Drink your milk. Its good for you!” Youve probably heard that many times, and its true. Milk contains calcium, which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students shoul
26、d drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal.Last Thursday, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine （PCRM ） says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein, all of which
27、 have negative effects on health.” “One of the only reasons people talk about dairy, or promote it, is that it is going to help build strong bones.” says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. There are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans, broccoli, cereals and tofu. Oran
28、ge juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient.Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but your genes, how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hours worth of exercise every day all play a part.Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that mi
29、lk isnt important. Keri Gans, a dietitian, says, “I think its irresponsible to take away this beverage that children enjoy, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day, and remove it from the lunch line.”The U.S. government is studying the request of the PCRM, but
30、a decision may be a long way off. Meanwhile, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best: “Milk has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. Its just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.”41Why does the US government ask students to drink one cup of milk a
31、t lunch time?AThey have been told many times.BThey have taken the PCRMs advice.CFat-free or low-fat milk is less expensive.DMilk helps build students strong bones.42Which of the following opinions does the PCRM support?AMilk is harmful to students health.BStudents should drink more milk each day.COr
32、ange juice is higher in calcium than milk.DMilk is the best way to get calcium.43The underlined word “beverage” in Paragraph 4 most probably means _.Agene Bidea CMilk DLunch44What can we learn from Marion Nestles words?AMilk has more nutrients than other food.BMilk is just a kind of common food.COth
33、er food also contains much calcium.DToo much nutrient lies in other food.45What does the above text mainly talk about?AThe best way to get the most calcium.BThe connection between milk and health.CDifferent opinion about the important of milk.DWhether to take milk off the school-lunch menu.CThat col
34、d January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at
35、night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers
36、（抢劫犯）. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment （公寓房间）, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, th
37、e noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasnt cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where Id heard the n
38、oise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck （垃圾车） pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How c
39、ould this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what youre looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wal
40、let back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldnt be a bad place as long as people were welling to help each other.46How did the write feel when she was walking home after work?ACold and sick. BFortunate and helpful. CSatisfied and cheerful. DDisappointed
41、 and helpless.47From the first paragraph, we learn that the write was busy _.Asolving her problem at the bank Btaking part in various city activitiesClearning acting in a n evening school Dpreparing for the first night show48On her way home the writer _.Alost her wallet unknowinglyBwas stopped by a
42、garbage truck driverCwas robbed of her wallet by an armed manDfound some homeless people following her49In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?ASomeone offered to take her back home.BA red-haired man came to see her.CShe heard someone call her name.DHer wallet was found in a
43、 garbage truck.50From the text, we can infer that the writer _.Awould stop working at night Bwould stay on in San FranciscoCwould make friends with cleaners Dwould give up her job at the bankDIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that
44、it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied （依赖） on how well they performed at t
45、ennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit （追求） of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude
46、. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire t
47、o fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of t
