9.When people ask me to name typical British dishes,I have,however,struggled to think of an answer.Yes,we do have our own national dishes.We do have fish and chips,and we have other dishes like roast dinner and shepherd's pie.But how much do we actually eat them?
Fish and chips,is made up of battered (绞碎的) fish and chips,which is often accompanied by a thick paste (酱).The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat,say,on a weekly basis.It's also not usually something that we would cook at home.The British people associate this dish with the seaside and it's something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there,bought from a takeaway fish and chip shop.
Another favourite British dish is roast dinner.This is made up of roast meat,usually chicken or beef,accompanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce called gravy (肉汁).It is usually eaten on a Sunday,perhaps for a special family dinner.It can either be cooked at home or eaten in a traditional pub.We also eat a more elaborate version of this for our Christmas dinner.
Although we do have our traditional dishes,our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries.You can find a wide range of international foods in the supermarket or varieties of different restaurants on our high streets.A famous saying amongst British people is that our national dish is now chicken tikka masala,a dish which is heavily influenced by Indian cuisine.
Don't expect to be served a traditional dish if you ever get invited for dinner at a British family's home!

28.What do you know about fish and chips?B
A.It is a home cooking for the British people.
B.It is a seaside dish eaten on a day trip there.
C.It is a Sunday dish for a family dinner.
D.It is an international food from India.
29.What is special about roast dinner?B
A.It is only served for Christmas dinner.
B.It is the top choice for a family dinner.
C.It is the most popular with foreigners.
D.It comes from a foreign cuisine.
30.Which of the following might be an international food?D
A.Fish and chips.
B.Roast dinner.
C.Shepherd's pie.
D.Chicken tikka masala.
31.What is the purpose of the text?A
A.To explore some British national dishes.
B.To make an advertisement for British Dishes.
C.To introduce the British table manners.
D.To tell about British Eating Habits.

18.For many reasons,I didn't choose to go to university like most of my family members,schoolmates and even best friends.I can't say that I didn't have moments of doubt about my decision.As the last term of school was coming to a close,I began to feel very anxious about the choice I made to be different and start an apprenticeship(学徒).
Although my A-level results day was the one that I felt extremely proud of,I knew that the general feeling from most of my teachers was disappointment.I completed my application,did a series of ability tests and interviews,and at last nine months later-I began an apprenticeship with Sellafield Ltd.
As soon as I started,I knew straight away that I made the right decision.From the people I met,to the on-the-job training that I was experiencing,I began to feel a real sense of purpose and could see a successful career in an industry that I found so interesting and challenging,paving the way in front of me.I never thought when I was in sixth grade that I would be working in the nuclear industry,but now I can't imagine working anywhere else.
Since finishing my apprenticeship over two years ago,I've had countless opportunities to develop myself both academically and personally.I've bought my first home; I was chosen to be a part of the Government's Get In Go Far apprenticeship campaign,and offered an amazing and unique secondment(人员借调) with the Environment,Health,Safety and Quality department at Sellafield.
I have no doubt that without my apprenticeship I wouldn't be in the position I am today,but equally I know that it was only the beginning for me.
My apprenticeship inspired me to explore different career paths in the nuclear industry,and it gave me the confidence to know that I can succeed in shifting from one position to another.

4.Thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign,Dion Leonard,an extreme marathon runner is adopting a stray pup(流浪狗)he met while running a 155-mile race in the Gobi desert in China.The funds(基金)that were raised will help cover medical expenses so that the dog can be transported from China to Leonard's home of Edinburgh,Scotland.
The female dog,who Leonard appropriately named Gobi,joined Leonard on day two of the annual 4 Deserts Race Series and ran side-by-side with him for 77 miles.Leonard noticed Gobi running with 101 runners during the first day,but on the second day,Gobi was on the start line,looking up at him."This was the first contact I had with her and as I ran off the line I noticed her by my side,"he said."I didn't speak much to her that day,but at the finish line she followed me into the tent and we slept next to each other.That was it then."
Leonard shared his sleeping space,water and food with his small companion during the race.He even lent her a hand when needed."I carried her across rivers that she could not cross on her own,"he wrote on his Crowdfunder page.
After the race,it was clear to Leonard that he had developed a special bond with the pup and started researching ways to get Gobi to the UK.He learned that it would take four months for Gobi to be medically checked and cleared for entry,all of which will cost 6,560 USD,an amountthathasbeensurpassed(超过)duetoasuccessfulCrowdfunder campaignthatraised 13,330 USD.

Although Hachiko was still a young dog,the bond between him and his owner was very strong and he continued to wait at the station every day.Sometimes,he would stay there for days at a time,though some believe that he kept returning because of the food he was given by street vendors (商贩).He became a familiar sight to commuters over time.In 1934,a statue of him was put outside the station.In 1935,Hachiko died at the place he last saw his friend alive.
