17.Everyone knows that fish is good for health.(36)G But it seems that many people don't cook fish at home.Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year,but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home.Buying,storing,and cooking fish isn't difficult.(37)DThis text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.
(38)F Fresh fish should smell sweet:you should feel that you're standing at the ocean's edge.Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn't fresh.(39)A When you have bought a fish and arrive home,you'd better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don't cook it immediately,but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two.Frozen fish isn't as tasty as the fresh one.
There are many common methods used to cook fish.(40) B First,clean it and season (调味) it with your choice of spices.
Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pond.(A larger one will take more time.) Then,it's ready to serve.

A.Do not buy it.
B.The easiest is to steam it.
C.This is how you can do it.
D.It just requires a little knowledge.
E.The fish will go bad within hours.
F.When buying fish,you should first smell it.
G.The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.
13.Some young people have become disappointed with how commercialized Christmas has become.As a result,they try to break with established traditions.What do they do to get more out of Christmas?
Ways of celebrating
       By booking a short holiday abroad they can escape winter weather.OK,so flying to warm countries is great for those who live in cold winter climates.But how do you celebrate Christmas when your year-round climate is warm,or even hot?
        In California,Santa Claus arrives on a surfboard,wearing an unusual red wetsuit.As long as he comes bearing presents,Surfing Santa would probably be welcome anywhere.
        In Australia,many young people enjoy the warm weather with a beach barbecue and cold beer.In recent years,Bondi Beach has become an attraction for overseas visitors to gather and celebrate.It's not uncommon for numbers to reach 40,000 on Christmas day.
Gift giving
        We all know the feeling:you receive the kind of gift that you wouldn't choose for yourself in a million years.But you have to bear it pretending that you love your new present.
        To avoid this experience,many people give gift vouchers(购物礼券)at Christmas.With this,the receivers can buy whatever they want.
        Digital and electronic goods feature highly on many young people's Christmas wish lists.Not surprisingly,then,the Guardian's top gifts for modern young people are:
        Apple's iPad:The iPad is probably one of the hottest items of the year.However you look at it,almost everybody wants one.
        Digital Cameras:Christmas is the perfect time to give this gift that can help you to catch those special seasonal memories.Digital cameras are not as expensive as they used to be,either.You can take a bargain for as little as $100.

Ray Charles,a black singer and pianist,was born in 1930in Georgia,USA.His relaxed style mixed jazz,blues,pop and a type of black music called soul,which comes from the traditional music sung by slaves in the south of the USA.By the time Ray Charles died in 2004,he had won 12Grammy Awards and performed at 10,000concerts around the world.Many musicians called him simply"the Genius".
(37)D
Ray Charles was born into a poor family,without a father.When he was five years old,his younger brother died; and around the same time,Charles started to lose his sight.By the age of 7he was completely blind.He had already been learning the piano for a year,and when he went blind,his mother knew this would be the only way he would earn any money in the future.All his life,Charles remembered her saying:"Do it right,or don't do it at all."
(38)F
Later he went to a school for blind and deaf children where the teachers also encouraged him to study music.Sadly,while he was still at school,his mother died.He left school and in the early 1950s Charles formed a group of players.He sang,played the saxophone and the piano and composed music.
(39)A
He made many recordings which are still classics:Georgia on My Mind,I Can't Stop Loving You,and Hit the Road,Jack are the three best-known songs.He recorded CDs with famous artists like Elton John.Others,such as The Beatles,thought his music was wonderful and said that the music they composed used many of his techniques.
(40)C
In 2003a film biography of his life was produced,called Ray.The part of Charles was played by a young actor and musician called Jamie Foxx.The film director brought Foxx to meet Charles.After they had been playing together for two hours,Charles,then aged 73,jumped up and said:"He's the one…he can do it."A year later Charles died aged 74.The film of his life has been as popular as his songs and means that the memory of Charles's music will live on.

A.Three classic tunes
B.The music of Ray Charles
C.The film of his life
D.Childhood poverty
E.Brief introduction to Ray Charles
F.Becoming a musician

17.Many students have to live with roommates while going to school or university.Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences,or easily one ofthe worst.(56)E
Follow these five tips to avoid the common mistakes that make good roommate relationships worse.
Talk things out.(57)B. If something happens,sit down with your roommates and have a face-to-face conversation.Complaining about your roommates behind their backs creates nothing but awkward situations and general unhappiness.
(58)A. Some roommates become the best of friends,and some don't.Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate to reach this level,especially when you first meet.Remember,you are trying to make a new friend,not scare your roommate away.And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend,there is no need to worry about it.
Clean up after yourself.Or at least,keep your mess on your side. (59)C. But being considerate with where you put your own stuff will help you avoid the arguments.
Ask before you take.This applies to food,clothes,supplies and anything else that you don't own.(60)G.Even if you both agree to share everything you should still ask.

A.Don't expect to be best friends.
B.Communication is of vital importance.
C.You don't need to keep the room clean and organized all the time.
D.Rooms can be really easy for a mess to pile up.
E.If you want to have a good relationship with your roommate,it all starts with you.
F.Not all roommates can become your best friends.
G.Show your roommate that you have respect for his or her belongings.
14.Identity theft (身份盗用) is one of the fastest-growing crimes.Identity theft is a crime in which your personal information is stolen by someone and is used in an illegal way.When your identity is stolen,the thief often does fraud (诈骗) with that.(36)BAnd you have to be responsible for the traffic accidents he causes.
Why is identity theft becoming so common?(37)GAnd the wealth of personal details people post on social networks such as Facebook also makes it easier for identity thieves to obtain personal information.
Many people are not aware of the problems caused by this crime.They wake up from their carefree attitude only when they become a victim and suffer the damages caused by this crime.(38)DAnd this is why it is important that every person should become cautious when using the Internet.The following tips may prevent you from identity theft.
First,make sure your computer has an updated anti-virus and firewall system installed.Second,only enter your credit card details on secure sites,or websites that you've used before.Third,(39)F Your date of birth,names of schools attended,phone number or the names of your parents are often required to verify (证明) an identity,and thieves can use this information too.Fourth,avoid sharing files as this gives other people access to your hard drive.Fifth,never open suspicious e-mails from unknown source.Last but not least,create complex passwords using a combination of numbers and keyboard symbols.(40)C

A.There is one solution to the problem.
B.He may borrow money from the bank in your name.
C.And change your passwords on a regular basis.
D.There is no cure for identity theft except prevention.
E.You must pay off all your debts ahead of time.
F.Avoid giving away too much personal information on social networking sites.
G.The popularity of the Internet and computers provides a gateway (出入口) for the identity theft.
11.Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a rol e in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they're in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn't have enough window light,get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors.Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us less hungry.So when it's time to repaint,go blue.
Don't forget the clock-or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time,and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes.And while you're at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down,turning on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plants can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent.And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.
21.The text can help those who care aboutB.
A.their home                     B.their body shape
C.house buying                   D.healthy diets

12.The end of my sophomore(大学二年级) year was approaching.Mom called me at the dorm one evening during the last week of May.My summer break would be spent with grandma and grandpa,helping out around their farm.The arrangement made good sense to all the family.I wasn't fully convinced of that myself but guessed it was just one summer.Next year would be my little brother's turn.
I arrived late that afternoon.Grandma had fixed more food than the three of us could possibly eat.She loved me entirely too much.The next morning,Grandpa fixed breakfast for the two of us.He told me Grandma had tired herself out yesterday and was going to rest in bed a little longer.I made a mental note to myself to not ask her to do things for me while I was there.I was there to help,not be a burden.
Weeks passed.I gradually settled into a routine of daily work with Grandpa.In the evenings I usually read or talked with Grandma.She never grew tired of hearing about college or anything I was involved in.She told me stories about her childhood,family and the early years after she and Grandpa had married.
The last Saturday in June,Grandpa suggested going fishing.We hadn't expected what we saw when we got to the pond that morning:One of the swans(天鹅) was dead.Grandpa had given the pair of swans to Grandma on their 50th anniversary."Why don't we see about buying another one,"I suggested,hoping the situation could somehow be righted.Grandpa thought for a few moments before answering.
He finally said,"no …it's not that easy,Bruce.You see,swans mate for life."He raised his finger to point,holding the fishing pole in his other hand."There's nothing we can do for the one that's left.He has to work it out for himself."
A few days later,we drove by the pond while doing our morning check on the cows.We found the other swan lying near the same spot we had found the first one.It,too,was dead.
The month of July started with me and Grandpa putting up a new stretch of fence.Then July 12 came.That was the day Grandma passed away.Grandma had died suddenly that morning of a stroke.(中风) By the afternoon,my parents were there.The old house was soon crowded with relatives and Grandpa's friends.
The funeral(葬礼) was held the ne xt day.Grandpa had insisted on having it as soon as possible.On the second day after the funeral,Grandpa announced at the breakfast table,"This is a working farm.We have a lot of things to do.The rest of you should get back to your own lives."Most of the family had already left,but this was Grandpa's way of telling the rest it was time for them to go home.My parents were the last to leave after lunch.
Grandpa was not a man who could outwardly express his grief(悲痛)around others,and we all worried about him.The rest of the summer flowed by.We stayed busy working.I thought there was something different about Grandpa but couldn't quite put my finger on it.
September was nearing,and part of me did not want to leave.I thought of skipping the fall semester and staying around a few more months.When I mentioned it,grandpa quickly told me that my place was back at college.
The day finally came for me to pack my car and leave.I shook his hand and chanced a hug.As I drove down the driveway,I saw him in the rearview mirror of my car.He waved to me and then walked to the farm gate to start the morning livestock check.
Mom called me at school on a stormy October day to tell me Grandpa had died.A neighbor had stopped by that morning for coffee and found him in the kitchen.He died of a stroke,the same as Grandma.At that moment,I understood what he'd clumsily tried to explain to me about the swan on that morning we fished together by the pond.
