Josette Duran was surprised when her son Dylan, 14, asked her to pack him a(an) 15 snack in his school lunch. When she asked him why, his reply was truly touching.

“I asked, ‘why? Are you not getting full? What’s going on? And he said, ‘No, I want to take one for my friend,’” Duran remembered.

her own pocket. But Duran refused to keep the cash, and 22 , donated it to the snack bar at her

son’s school. “Now everyone can eat ,” Duran said, “What makes me especially 23 is that it

all started with my son. Being kind doesn’t have to come in the form of money; just know that if

you’re having a good day while someone else is having a bad day, you should 24 that.”

Chinese food is popular all over the world, but one group who fight against it is vegetarians (素食主义者). Meat is nearly always on the table, no matter what part of China you are in. It is so common that Zhang Xiuyan has long grown used to the difficulties of being a vegetarian in China.

The 67-year-old woman cannot eat meat because it causes her uncomfortable feeling in stomach. “Every time I go out, I meet the same situation,” she says. “I tell them ‘I don’t eat meat, so in the soup, please don’t include chicken or duck. But when they serve it, there’s always a little bit of meat.”

Ms Zh ang says it’s sometimes just a problem of communication. “For example, when they serve green beans, there is a bit of meat in the dish. I say ‘how come there’s still meat?’” she says. “And the waiter look and say, ‘Oh that? That shouldn’t be a problem!’”

Ms Zhang is among 50 million Chinese who are believed to be vegetarians, about 4 per cent of the 1.3 billion population. Traditionally in poorer times, meat was a luxury (奢侈). But times are changing, and with them, so are cultural attitudes (态度).

Belle Zhang from Beijing is another vegetarian who has also had difficulties at restaurants. “At home of the noodle restaurants here, even if you order a bowl with no meat, the soup is always made from meat,” she says. “we vegetarians can always taste it!” She says a recent trip with friends up to China’s Northeast proved more difficult than other parts of the country.

“The food in the Northeast is really meaty, so there wasn’t a single dish we ordered that was vegetarian, ” she says. “Every plate on the table in one way or another had a little bit of meat in it.”

28. Why does Ms Zhang dislike eating meat?

A. Because she loves animals.

B. Because she wants to keep fit.

C. Because it does harm to her health.

D. Because she is a picky eater (挑食者).

29. Hearing the waiter’s reply, Ms Zhang probably feels ______________.

A. curious

B. interested

C. surprised

D. angry

30. What’s the best title of this article?

A. The introduction of Chinese food.

B. A story of vegetarians.

C. Being a vegetarian in China.

D. Views on vegetarians

C

Cathy Krause, who works as an emergency dispatcher (紧急调度员) at the Rockwood Police Department, is tired of getting calls from children, most of which are usually a joke. However, a phone call from 5-year-old Jackson McManus who said his father was in trouble was the real deal.

“I’ve not had the call like this before,” Krause said as she spoke about the 911 call. Krause was able to calm the boy down and ask him questions to help police find his location and also gather information about the situation. “I asked him plenty of questions and he was so good,” she said. “He was a little nervous in the beginning, but he did everything I asked him to do.” Krause asked Jackson if his father was awake. Jackson went to check on his father who couldn’t give any replies when he called out his name. This led Krause to believe that the man was unconscious (无意识).

Jackson told his father’s name but she was still unable to locate the address. She then asked the boy where he went to school and told him to look at the garage and see if there were any numbers. “I already had a car look for you,” Krause said as she continued to talk to the child.

The boy mentioned a street called Groat Street which is between Huron River Drive and Woodruff Road. With these details, she realized that the boy lived at the southern end of the Brownstown Township. She told Jackson to stand outside his house and wave so that police officers would be able to see him.

Even though Jackson got some of the numbers of his address wrong, police saw him outside his home and the father was quickly taken to a local hospital. He is now in good condition.

The father had been suffering from low sodium because of the medicine he was taking. He told 7 Action News he had taught Jackson and his daughter Mary how to call 911 when something terrible happened to him.

31. Which of the following is most important for Cathy?

A. To know Jackson’s exact address.

B. To get through to Jackson’s father.

C. To learn about Jackson’s situation.

D. To get in touch with Jackson’s school.

32. We know from the text that Jackson ______________.

A. answered all of Cathy’s questions correctly

B. remained clear-minded in the accident

C. has been well trained in giving first aid (急救)

D. know his community very well

33. The text above is probably taken from ______________.

A. a medical report

B. a book review

C. a news report

D. a story book

What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed at the entrance? Or the soft background music?

But have you ever noticed the smell? If it isn’t special, the answer is likely to be no. But though a shop’s scent (气味) may not be compared with sounds, it is certainly there. And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase (购买).

A brand store has become famous for its special scent which floats through the quite dark hall and out to the entrance. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that whe n it first introduced scent into its stores, customers’ willingness to purchase increased by 80 percent.

When it comes to the best shopping streets in Paris, scent is just as important to a brand’s success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales. That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.

Some years ago, the focus (聚焦) for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants’ disproving attitude (伪善的态度) and don’t-touch-what-you-can’t-afford displays. Now the rise of electronic purchase has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while e-shops can use sights and sounds, only bricks-and-mortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to (追寻) much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.

Now a famous store uses man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut scent in the swimsuit department. A department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store’s windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.

34. According to the passage, what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand

store?

A. Friendly assistant.

B. Special scents.

C. Soft background music

D. Attractive window display.

35. E-shops are mentioned in the passage to ______________.

A. show the advantages of brick-and-mortar stores

B. force shop assistants to change their attitude

C. push stores to use sights and sounds

D. introduce the rise of e-shopping

36. The underlined word “destination” in Paragraph 5 mea ns ______________ .

A. an area that exhibits goods

B. a place where travelers like to stay

C. a place where customers love to go

D. a goal that a store expects to meet

37. The main purpose of the passage is to ______________ .

A. compare and introduce

B. examine and recommend

C. discuss and review

D. inform and explain
