LONDON(Reuters)-Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.

"Organic produce is always better," Gold said. "The food is free of pesticides(农药), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally(本地)grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty. "Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(进口)to meet growing demand. "The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market," said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.

60. More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because ____.

  A. they are getting richer

  B. they can get the food anywhere

  C. they consider the food free of pollution

  D. they like home-grown fruit

61.Which of the following statements is true to the facts about most organic produce sold in Britain?

  A. It grows indoors all year round.

  B. It is produced outside Britain.

  C. It is grown on family farms.

  D. It is produced on large farms.

62.What is the meaning of "the organic trend" as the words are used in the text?

  A. growing interest in organic food

  B. better quality of organic food

  C. rising market for organic food

  D. higher prices of organic food

63.What is the best title for this news story?

  A. Organic food-healthy, or just for the wealthy?

  B. The making of organic food in Britain

  C. Organic food-to import or not?

D. Good qualities of organic food

60---63   CBAA  


解析:

60.C 点评:推理判断题。从第二段 Gold的话可以判断出,人们喜欢绿色食物的原因是因为它们没有受到农药的污染。

61.B 点评:细节题。短文倒数第二句说明英国的绿色食物大部分是进口的,即在英国的国外生产的。

62.A 点评:词义猜测题。由短文最后一句可以看出,由于人们对organic food越来越感兴趣,使其需求越来越大。

63.A 点评:标题选择题。绿色食品的需求量每年以三分之一的速度上升,使绿色食品市场成为快速增长的市场,销售人员由此获得大量财富。所以,Organic food—healthy,or just for the wealthy?是比较恰当的题目。

Hey there,

So you’re about to spend four years of your life and tens of dollars of your parents’ money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why you’re going?

Relax. You’re making the right decision. First of all, you’ll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. For example, it’s hard to decide if you want to be a painter if you’ve never painted any pictures; once you’re in a drawing-room on campus, you’ll know one way or the other. College is also a lot of fun — after you graduate, you’ll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduate earn about twice the income of those who never attended college.

Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way.

* Researching Schools. To us. the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that really fits you best — not the once that is the most competitive(有竞争力的)or has the best-equipped rooms.

* Applying to School. On JohnsonReview.com.  you’ll find hundreds of actual college application(申请)and links to many more.

* Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most difficult parts of the admission(录取)course. It’s not the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the best. But, if you can do better, find the right course for better scores.

*Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid. If you really do your research, you’ll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost.
