体裁: 记叙文 话题: 绿色出行 词数:276 难度: ★★ 建议用时: 5分钟 China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them,all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year,I've found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However,people still use their bicycles to get around.For many,it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors—silver,green,red,blue,yellow whatever you want.

It's fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroad,move skillfully through traffic,and ride even on sidewalks(人行道).Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.

Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture,I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.

My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的).To be safe,I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowthere at times.I didn't want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide,so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.

I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.

体裁: 记叙文 话题: 助人为乐 词数:300 难度: ★★ 建议用时: 5分钟 In 1978,I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney,Australia.I was looking forward to having five days off from duty.Unfortunately,the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left.So I thought I'd hitch a ride (搭便车).

I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me.Finally,a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon.He said that although he couldn't give me a lift,I should come back to his house for lunch.He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry.I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured(使……放心) me I was safe,and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards.When we arrived at his house,he made us sandwiches.After lunch,he helped me find a lift home.

years later,in 2003,while I was driving to a nearby town one day,I saw an

elderly man standing in the glaring heat,trying to hitch a ride.I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I'd been given decades earlier.I pulled over and picked him up.I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.

After a few moments of small talk,the man said to me,“You haven't changed a bit,even your red hair is still the same.”

I couldn't remember where I'd met him.He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago.It was Gordon.

Ⅴ.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

The word “yogurt” comes from a Turkish word meaning to curdle(凝固) or to thicken.__1__ Originally a simple fermented(发酵的) dairy product,yogurt now has many variations and personalities.It can be thin and runny,or thick and firm.It can be made from cow milk,goat milk and sheep milk.__2__ Yogurt cultures can also be used to ferment “milks” such as the creamy liquid obtained from nuts,rice,soy,or coconut.

Essentially,yogurt is the product of beneficial bacteria(有益菌) fermenting milk and turning it into a thickened,acidic(酸性的) food that will stay fresh longer than milk itself,and it contains millions of bacteria that are welcomed by the human gut(肠子).It is probable that the earliest yogurt was made by accident in Mesopotamia around 5,000 BC,when animals were first kept.__3__ The digestive juices and bacteria in the stomachs made the milk curdle and become acidic.Not only was it a new and interesting food,but the acidity helped to keep it edible for longer than if it had just sat out in a bowl or jar.

Yogurt was a popular food in the Middle East for thousands of years,and has been a main dish of the Eastern European diet.It is now eaten throughout the world,as a main course,a snack,an ingredient in many recipes,and a condiment (佐料).It has also gained considerable popularity in America in the last forty or fifty years.__4__ Yogurt contains protein and calcium,as well as a variety of vitamins.Additionally,the process of yogurt fermentation is very similar to the process of digestion.__5__ Many people eat yogurt plain,while others prefer to mix it with fruit or vegetables,or to add flavors.It is used in a variety of recipes as a flavor improver,and frequently enjoyed as a refreshing drink.

A.As a result,it can be easily consumed.

B.In some countries the milk of horses or camels is even used.

C.Yogurt can be cultured with a variety of different bacteria combinations.

D.Today it is spelled yogurt,yoghurt,or yogourt,with yogurt being the most common spelling.

E.It is because yogurt conforms with general trends towards organic,cultured and

food.

F.At that time,the milk was probably stored and transported in bags made from the stomachs of these animals.

G.There are many different ways that beneficial bacteria can be introduced to milk to make an entirely new food.
