4.Grandpa was a carpenter (木匠).One day he was making some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage (孤儿院) in Egypt.On his way home,he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses,but they were gone.He drove back to the church,but his search turned out to be fruitless.
Suddenly,he realized what happened.The glasses had slipped out(滑出) of his pocket and fallen into one of the boxes,which he had nailed shut(钉住).His new glasses were heading for Africa!
Grandpa had six children and he had paid twenty dollars for the glasses that morning."It's not fair,"he told God as he drove home."I've been very faithful (忠诚的) in giving my time and money to YOUR work."
Several months later,the director(院长) of the orphanage was on holiday in the United States.He wanted to visit all the churches that helped him in Egypt,so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather's small church in Chicago.
"But most of all,"he said,"I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year.You see,I had just broken my glasses.Then your boxes arrived.To my surprise,I found a pair of glasses in it and it fit me very well!"
The people listened,happy for the amazing glasses,but thought that the man must have confused(混淆)their church with another.There were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.Sitting quietly in the back,with tears in his eyes,Grandpa realized that God had played a big trick on him.

分析 本文讲述了祖父因为不小心把眼镜掉进了运送募捐物品的箱子中,然而这副眼镜却给了受捐赠者极大的帮助.所以这是一次"美丽的失误"的故事.

解答 BDDC
1.B.推理判断题.根据第四段内容可知,孤儿院院长以为爷爷不小心掉进箱子里的那副眼镜也是捐献物品,再根据最后一段中的"Grandpa realized that God had played a big trick on him."可知,爷爷并没有要回自己的眼镜,所以那副眼镜最后应该是归孤儿院院长所有了,故B项正确.
2.D.细节理解题.根据最后一段中的"but thought that the man must have confused their church with another.There were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas."可知,除了爷爷之外其他人都以为孤儿院院长弄错了,因为他们的捐赠物品列表里并没有那副眼镜,故D项正确.
3.D.细节理解题.根据文中The glasses had slipped out of his pocket and fallen into one of the boxes,which he had nailed shut可知眼睛从他的口袋里滑倒了一个盒子里并且盒子被他被定住了,故选D.
4.C.推理判断题.根据最后一段中的"Sitting quietly in the back,with tears in his eyes,Grandpa realized that God had played a big trick on him."可知,听到孤儿院院长说那副眼镜他戴起来很合适后,爷爷含着泪水意识到上帝和自己开了一个大大的玩笑,由此可见爷爷感到很失望,故C项正确.

19.Insects(昆虫) are a very healthy food.They have almost as much protein(蛋白质) as meat from a pig or cow and are low in fat.Eating insects is also very good for the environment since they need less land and water than larger animals.
Marcel Dicke,who studies insects,explained in a talk how insects also produce more meat from the food they eat.For example,imagine a farmer feeds a cow 10 pounds of food.Those 10 pounds of food produce about 1pound of meat for people to eat.However,imagine the farmer gives a certain number of insects 10pounds of food.Those 10 pounds of food produce 9 pounds of meat for people to eat!
Eating more insects can also help people in poor areas.Many people can raise and sell insects,which can provide jobs and food.
But insects will not replace animal meat very quickly.First,people in some countries would have to change how they think about eating insects.Many people in North America and Europe eat a lot of meat like beef and pork.But they do not traditionally eat insects.In fact,for many people in the west,eating insects sounds crazy.They believe insects are dirty and dangerous.Insects make them feel uncomfortable.
Some people are trying to deal with this problem.For example,David George Gordon wrote a book named"The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook",which tries to show people that insects can be delicious.Other insect experts travel around telling people about the benefits of eating insects.But they will still have a lot work to do.

25.The long way eating insects has to go mainly results fromB.
A.their terrible taste
B.people's old beliefs
C.family traditions
D.eating methods
26.We can infer from David and other insect experts believe thatA.
A.people can eat more insects
B.insects should be better protected
C.people can make a lot of money from insects
D.it's dangerous to eat insects
27.Eating insectsD.
A.is not healthy
B.makes people put n fat
C.helps protect large nimals
D.is environmentally friendly
28.The example of Marcel Dicke is given to showD.
A.the high cost of food production
B.it's quite easy for farmers to raise insects
C.the different ways of feeding cows and insects
D.raising insects is a good choice for farmers.
9.The Healthy Habits Survey shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits.Here are some findings and expert advice.
(1)How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?
•Finding:A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.
•Step:Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a battery-operated toothbrush.Brush gently for 2 minutes at least twice a day.
(2)How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?
•Finding:Seniors,on average,bathe fewer tha 3 days a week.And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4times a day-half of the number doctors recommend.
•step:We touch our faces around 3000 times a day-often inviting germs to enter our mouth,nose and eyes.Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle.And,most importantly,wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.
(3).How often do you think about fighting germs?
•Finding:Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.
•Step:Be aware of germs.Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge(海绵)that can carry more germs than anything else?To kill these germs,keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.
