Ask any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizza, burgers and chips are always mentioned.

But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should be eating. According to the National Diet and Nutrition (营养) Survey, far too many young people in the UK between the ages of 4 and 18 eat too much fat, sugar and salt in their diet and take in too many calories. And their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含淀粉的碳水化合物), fiber, iron, vitamins and calcium (钙) is too low.

For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is very important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones. Similarly, foods that are rich in iron are good for young rapidly developing bodies, so red meat, bread, green vegetables, and dried fruit are also good to eat.

It is during our teenage years that lifestyle habits can become entrenched (根深蒂固的), so it is important that young people are educated about what foods are good for them. In 2005, in order to change eating habits and open teenagers' minds to new tastes, chef Jamie Oliver started a "Feed Me Better" project. As part of a television series, "Jamie' s School Dinners", he worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more nutritious school meals. Although some teenagers and parents refused to have a try at first, the project went very well and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.

No one expects to end the teenage love affair with fast and junk food but, hopefully, if projects like "Feed Me Better" continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of eating healthily.

1.What problem do teenagers in the UK have?

A. Most of them are too fat.

B. Most of them eat too little.

C. Many of them don' t eat healthily.

D. Many of them are short of exercise.

2.The underlined word "essential" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to" "

A. difficult B. possible C. common D. necessary

3.According to the text, the "Feed Me Better" project _ _

A. proved to be a success

B. taught teachers how to cook

C. was started by the government

D. was started at Jamie's school first

4.Which of the following opinions does the author probably agree to?

A. Lifestyle habits are difficult to change.

B. Too much red meat is also bad for health.

C. Teenagers should learn to feed them better.

D. Teenagers should stop eating fast and junk food.

Alibaba started taking the lead in China by connecting big Chinese manufacturers(制造商) with big buyers across the world. Its business-to-business site, Alibaba.com allowed business to buy almost everything. Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to judge: size. Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards. Its market attracts 231 million active buyers, 8 million sellers, 11.3 billion orders a year — and Alibaba is just the middleman. It encourages people to use its markets — not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.

If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on daily Chinese life, take my experience. I moved to Beijing a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded, polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics, bathroom furnishings, and anything else my wife wanted. “You’re looking for what exactly? Why not try it? ” my Chinese teacher asked me one day. With that, my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began.

Alibaba’s original business-to-business model now is second to consumer buying. Chinese retail(零售) buying makes up 80% of Alibaba’s profit, and leading that group is Taobao, with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you’ll ever find. TMall.com is Alibaba’s other big site, where you can find brand name goods from Nike and Unilever near the lowest prices.

What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U.S. is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping — big-box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites. In smaller towns than Beijing, where big retailers have not yet traveled, shopping online is shopping, and shopping is Taobao.

I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how wide the marketplace is. Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping. I’m not even a big buyer, because I need friends to help me search the Chinese-language site. When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher’s iPad, which helps me buy goods, I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine.

1.Alibaba’s advantage mainly lies in .

A．its low price

B．its big size

C．its not charging small sellers

D．its business-to-business service

2.We know from the passage that Alibaba .

A．will continue to develop.

B．charges all the sellers on its site a percentage of the sale.

C．acts as a bridge between the buyers and sellers.

D．is of middle size among all the online sites.

3.What can be inferred from the passage?

A．Alibaba’s business-to-business service earns more money than retail.

B．TMall.com provides more profit than Taobao.

C．Taobao has no obvious advantage over other similar online sites.

D．The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A．Shopping online in China is TaoBao.

B．How the author purchases online in China.

C．Shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping.

D．Alibaba influences people’s daily purchase in China.
