24、 Children Try More VegetablesIts not always enjoyable for children to eat vegetables. But what if a garden is built in the school? New research suggests that a gardening program in schools can increase childrens vegetable intake(摄入量) . How the Study Was Carried OutThe study was carried out in eight
25、schools， Each school was in the gardening program for one school year. Every child in grades 3-5 received a total of eighteen 60-minute lessons across the school year. In the program， each school built a garden， where children learned to grow their own fresh produce， like fruit and vegetables. The B
26、enefits Children Could GetThe study found that vegetable intake if the children who grew their own produce increased greatly across the year. Related studies show that increased vegetable intake can improve health and cut the risk of chronic diseases(慢性疾病). Not only are there benefits to health, inc
27、reasing the variety of vegetables children are exposed(接触)to may also make mealtimes much easier.” Children who are often exposed to a variety of vegetables are more likely to try new foods,” explains Dr. Kerry Jones. For children, growing their own food is a powerful tool to increase their intake o
28、f the food. _28_Any opportunity to expose children to more vegetables is meaningful. “If children are learning about vegetables at school, its important to encourage this interest,” says Jones. Parents can listen to their children about what they have learned and read the handouts they bring home fr
29、om school. Parents and children can also read books together. Younger children can enjoy reading stories about vegetables with parents who offer useful message. Older children may enjoy searching through cookbooks with parents to find new dinner ideas to cook vegetables in a tasty way. Besides, a sm
30、all planter box in a sunny part at home can encourage children to understand more about where their food comes from. Teaching children to grow their own produce is a great way to increase their preference for the produce. If children are taught to enjoy vegetables early in life, they will probably c
31、ontinue eating vegetables in the long term. 27. What did children do in the gardening program?A. They did research on new plants. B. They grew fresh produce at school. C. They took home green vegetablesD. They built gardens for their classes. 28. Which of the following would be the best heading for
32、Paragaph4?A. Ideas to Encourage Children to Cook at HomeB. Ways to Expose Children to Vegetables at HomeC. Reasons Why Parents Should Understand ChildrenD. Suggestions Which Children Could Get from Parents29. What can we learn from the program?A. Parent support might improve childrens reading. B. Sc
33、hool programs could develop students creativity. C. Doing studies can prepare students for future learning. D. Hands-on experience may influence childrens preference. DNature and culture are often seen as opposite ideas. What belongs to nature cannot be the result of human activities and. on the oth
34、er hand， cultural development is achieved against nature. However. this is not the only opinion on the relationship between nature and culture. Studies in the development of humans suggest that culture， whether taken as an effort against nature or a natural effort, is part of the development of the
35、human species(物种). Several modern writers saw the process of education as a struggle(斗争) against human nature. We are born with wild natures. such as eating and behaving in a disorganized way or acting selfishly. Education uses culture as a way to get us out of our widest natures； it is thanks to cu
36、lture that the human species could learn to adapt(适应) ， progress and raise itself above and beyond other species. Over the past century and a half， however， studies in the history of human development have shown that the formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation. Consider， for exampl
37、e， hunting(打猎) . It seems to be an adaptation， which allowed humans to move into new and different areas， opening up the opportunity to change living habits. At the same time， the development of weapons(武器) is related to that adaptationfrom rocks and stones to a set of hunting tools， and from huntin
38、g tools to rules relating to the proper use of weapons. Hunting also seems to be responsible for a whole set of bodily abilities， such as balancing on one foot. Just think of how this very simple thing is closely related to dance， a key expression of human culture. It is then clear that biological d
39、evelopment and cultural development are closely tied. The transmission of culture seems to be directly related to whats in our blood. Just as snails carry their shell， so do we bring along our culture. However， culture is also passed on among people of the same times or among people belonging to dif
40、ferent populations. We can learn how to make jiaozi even if we were born from Russian parents in Paris just as we can learn how to speak English even if none of our family or friends speaks that language. 30. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. Culture belongs to human nature. B. Nature teaches huma
41、ns how to adapt. C. Humans are supposed to be well organized. D. Education pushes the human species to progress. 31. Why does the writer talk about hunting in Paragraph 3?A. To suggest some possible ways of changing living habits. B. To stress the importance of tools in humans struggle for life. C.
42、To show how culture develops as humans adapt to the environment. D. To explain why there is a need to call for the proper use of weapons. 32. The word “transmission” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_”. A. systemB. spreadC. startD. spirit33. What is the writers opinion on the nature-culture relationsh
43、ip?A. Culture and nature are separate yet balanced. B. Culture depends much on nature to progress. C. Nature and culture are different but connected. D. Nature follows the unwritten rules set by culture. 第二部分本部分共6题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。四、阅读表达（每题2分，共10分）阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。Screen-Free DaysI remember the fi
44、rst time I suggested screen-free days in our school to some of our student leaders. Jokingly, I said to the group, “What do you think if we go a week without using our laptops or smartphones?”They laughed, and one of them said, “No way, Mr. White. They would be too much.” I could feel their worry, a
45、nd told them that I was only considering single screen-free days. Even that idea left them feeling upset. According to a survey we did, most student in our school spend about six hours a day on screens. Many of my students start their day by checking their smartphones. I often see them looking at th
46、eir phones when getting off the bus or at parents drop-off-they cant use their own “screens” at school. They usually work on computers at school for at least two hours during the day. Its clear that our students spend a lot of time on screens， We do see the benefits of technology. However, we teache
47、rs also want to make sure that students have balanced learning and social experiences away from their screens. Thats why we have come up with the idea of screen-free days. During the course of the year， we have built in several screen-free days that require us to make different plans for our students about how they will communicate with one ano
